had about 13pics I was adjusting, and after 11 it froze and wouldn't paste to the rest. Also I had tried to do the same thing earlier with a larger amount and had problems as well, it got to about 80done and froze.

 

Love the update otherwise though!

Maybe this info isn't useful, but I thought I would add that the issue continues after changing my GPU to an Nvidia RTX 3070 FE, which is different than the GPU I had listed above previously.

Also affected by this bug!
Please expedite the fix or provide a workaround/downgrade guide.

Album size: 5000+, trying to paste a global edit setting before digging in for selection.  It does work when pasting single,  or sometimes for smaller groupings. Seems "random".

It hangs at random numbers of larger selections, only applying the edits to some, and no more pasting works after that (full exit/restart needed).    Various hangs with 20 selected, applied to 19.   140 selected, applied to 86.

Best of luck trying to sort it out, "random" bugs are often tricky to trace 🙂

Is there any progress on this bug? I also need to quickly edit 300-400 photos a day, and it's really annoying to freeze, restart, repeatedly, even after pasting settings once.

When I copy and paste settings to another image, it shows that it's processing and then it gets stuck.  Then I have to turn lightroom off and try again.  It happens almost every time now.

It doesn’t seem to be. I’m still having the same problem, and I posted a week ago.

Has the issue been fixed? It still doesn't work for me and there is no update available.

After updating to Lightroom Desktop 4.0, pasting auto settings doesn't work. After I click the button to paste the auto settings I copied, it sits at 0% for the current task and never makes any progress. I also cannot cancel the task, so I am forced to close Lightroom and re-open it if I want to do anything else. I need to apply auto settings to over 300 photos every day for my job, so this is preventing me from keeping the new version installed. I am experiencing this issue on 2 different PCs, both running Windows 10 Pro.

I uninstalled mine and installed it again and mine has worked fine. But it installed the older version.

Same problem here...already cleared my preferences. Doesn't matter how many photos I select, if it is more than about 10 it freezes half way through.

Awesome stuff guys...I love pasting edits on 300 photos one at a time...

Anyone having issues with editing multiple photos in Lightroom...? Pasting the edit from one photo to multiple images and nothing happens... Having to re-start LR and then repeat the action (copy/paste) to get it to complete the edit... Files are NEF from a D3300 using present Windows 10 on a reasonably modern HP i5 laptop with 8GB ram...

Any help or pointers appreciated...
