P: LrD v9.4 the star rating is not working properly

Photographe de mariage, j’ai pour habitude d’effectuer mon tri directement sur lightroom via le système de notation par étoile. Or depuis 3 jours, celui-ci bug et est obsolète. Lorsque je met une étoile, celle-ci disparait instantanément et n’est pas sélectionnée. Parfois lorsque je met une étoile sur UNE photo, toutes les autres photos possèdent une étoile également mais ne sont pas sélectionnées malgré tout. Le seul moyen pour que ma notation soit pas obsolète, je suis obligé de faire clic-droit sur la photo, définir la note, une étoile. Sauf que cette manière me fait perdre un temps considérable !! Faire un clic-droit sur chaque photo que je souhaite noter sur un tri de +6000 photos c’est pas possible…. 

J’ai constaté ce bug depuis la dernière MAJ. J’ai quitté le logiciel +5 fois, j’ai redémarré mon PC mais SURTOUT j’ai désinstallé l’application et rien n’y fait.

    Greetings all,  

     

    A new update for the Adobe Photography products has been released.  The August release (x.5) contains an update regarding this issue. 

    If you do not see the update in your Creative Cloud Application, you can refresh it by pressing  [Ctrl/Cmd]+[Alt/Opt]+[ R ].

    Note: It may take up to 24 hours for your update to be available in your Creative Cloud app.

     

    Thank you for being so patient.

    I’m having the same problem this past week. When I assign one or more stars to a photo, the assigned number of stars carries over to each preceding photo. I have to “unstar” the one directly to the left of the one I wanted to star, and then “restar” the original one. It’s a real pain and eventually I stopped using it but it’s making Lightroom much more difficult to use now. Urgently looking for an alternative to cull photos unless Lr comes up with a fix fast!

    That’s a good description and exactly what is happening to me. Seems to be a result of the update as I’ve never had this problem before. It’s really slowing me down in a very busy season! Last night I gave up and ended up manually adding my “keepers” to a separate folder - very tedious and time consuming for professionals working with large volumes!

    Hey, ​@Jess in Maine, ​@Melaniemurphy, ​@Miguel, ​@ElizabethGasparyan, ​@JDevlieghere

     

    Could you record your screen and provide a numbered list of steps to recreate the behavior as described? 

     

    Thanks!

    This is happening to me and quite frustrating as I rely on star rating to cull. Lightroom “help” has not been helpful. Please let me know if you figure out a fix!

    I agree, when you have hundreds of pictures to cull, this takes to much time.

    While culling my images I use the star rating system. Lately while selecting my images I'm noticing that it's putting stars by several images I didn't select. Then when I do a search the ones select don't show up when I select the corresponding stars. This just started happening within the last few weeks. I have updated my computer and Lightroom Cloud to 9.4.1. Not sure what the issue is other how to correct it.

    The star ratings in inconsistent. Photos that are rated are coming up as unrated and photos that have no ratings are showing 5 stars automatically.

    Não estou conseguindo editar as fotos escolhidas, pois quando faço a marcação com estrela ele não está atualizando as marcações quando a foto está aberta.

     

    Outros colegas usam o mesmo sistema no Lightroom e ocorrendo o mesmo fato.

    After latest update on LR, after checking photos and putting stars, when finish and when i want to export selected files, LR randomly put star rating on other photos and on the selected ones stars dissapear, it didnt happens before, but after latest update. For example, if I put 5 stars on 100 photos from them 2000, at the end i see only 15 photos as rated
