P: Desktop: Resets recently edited photos randomly and won't shut down

I've had this happen more than a few times: Lightroom clears all my edits from a photo, when I change selection to a next photo. I've lost more than days' worth of work since I haven't every time notice this happening, and it's a real bummer to see all edits gone after editing dozens of photos in one session. Also, each time this happens, the Lightroom app won't shut down and has to be force quitted. 

There has to be a solution for this, right? 

I'm using version 3.3 on a 2018 MacBook Pro.

It says I have version 4.1. I tried to update it but it says I am up to date with software.

This was fixed in the October release (Note this is an old thread marked solved)

Please go to Help>System Info… and get us the exact installed version number of your software.

This is still constantly happening to me since the update happened. You guys need to fix this or I will cancel and find another service to use. I lose hours of work nearly on a daily basis.

Did you ever find a solution to the random edit reset issue when you change the image selection?

Doesn't look like the "engineers" ever fixed this bug? 

I'm on the latest update and have the same symptoms.

This also happens constantly for me.

  • BUILD: 20200804-0825-1542eef
  • VERSION: 3.4
  • getOS: MacOSX
  • getOSVersion: 10.15.

Also cannot export photos during this time. Seems to be correlated with closing the lid on the laptop with Lightroom still running.

Hate to keep complaining but.. For the past few days, I've had the program crash when launching it, or it opens up the usual way but the library seems completely empty and program is offline, even though the network connection works on all other apps. I have to start and quit, or alternatively have the program crash a few times before it opens up with my photos in it and functions normally.

Any updates regarding this issue, or solving it? Problems are still present, and honestly there is no way I am able to continue using Lightroom if there won't be a solution soon - feels like now I'm paying +150 € per year for something that wouldn't be worth it even if it were free. Price gap to competitors has closed ages ago by thousands of euros if we take into consideration the hours of work I've done to cover up the gone edits.
