Is it safe to eject my memory card while only converting to .dng during importation?

In LRC and ACR can’t apply Adaptive Color profile. In LRC nothing happened in preview (no image change, but when copying settings form earlier images that used this setting you get error information  “Failed to apply adjustment to following photos. An unexpected error occurred while processing. (1)” then name of image.In ACR I got “Could not update all AI Settings” error.It worked on v.14.x version and older ARC. Also if Adaptive Profile was applied it is still possible to edit this image correctly.Strangely didn’t found problems with other AI features (masking, de-noise, depth blur, etc), that seem more AI heavy. My config:Lightroom Classic version: 15.3.1 [ 202605261338-e36f8566 ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: en-PLOperating system: Mac OS 15Version: 15.7.7 [24G720]Application architecture: x64Logical processor count: 8Processor speed: 2,0GHzSqLite Version: 3.36.0Adobe GSDK Version: 1.4.0.213Power Source: Plugged In, 100%Built-in memory: 16 384,0 MBDedicated GPU memory used

After upgrading Lightroom Classic to latest version I cannot see or access my edited TIFF files? I can see all my raw folders and the photos contained within. Where I have used a plug in and the files come back as edited TIFF, these have disappeared. I have tried to restore from back ups but cannot get this to work 

Lightroom isn't showing video file

This post applies to Camera Raw and Lightroom Classic. Dust Removal is no longer in Early Access status and can be found in the Remove edit panel for Camera Raw & Lightroom Classic. Dust Removal helps remove distracting spots in an image that may be caused by dust on a camera's sensor and is also effective on dust on the rear lens element. Once enabled, your image will be scanned, and any detected dust spots will be automatically removed using Content-Aware Remove. For refinement, you can select one or multiple spots to delete or refresh. Batch removal is also supported; simply select the "Dust" checkbox under "Remove" in the copy settings dialog.Please note that scanned negatives are not in the scope of this feature at this time.  Dust spots on scans tend to be located in the focal plane, with the negative and very sharp, while sensor dust is typically positioned out of the focal plane and therefore not in focus. Scanned negative dust typically appears as white spots on a darker b

When creating a new Lightroom classic catalog the images do not preview. I have to quit Lightroom altogether, then reopen the catalog in order to see them. This has been going on for months.

I’ve had this problem for awhile now and haven’t been able to find a solution.  On the import tab when attempting to import pictures it takes Lightroom classic forever to generate the thumbnails. I’m not talking about the previews that get built based on my choice during the import. I talking about the grid view where you can select which files to actually import.  I just tried on a sample of 280 pictures and it took the better part of 3 or 4 minutes to generate the thumbnails. Which is about as long as it takes to do the actual import AND generate 1:1 previews…  I’m shooting primarily a fujifilm XT5 with and only shoot .RAFLightroom version 13-3 (but has been happening for the better part of the last 2 years) I’ve got a very good homebuilt computer Intel Core i7-13700k (liquid cooled)RTX 4070 (GPU acceleration turned on)64 gigs of RAMHarddrive in question is a 30% full M.2 NVME SSD I previously bought a high end card reader and usb 3.0 cabling hoping this would help. Which is doesn’t.

I tried the “convert to DNG” function and in INCREASED the file size. Settings were:Only convert Raw files (obviously) Delete originals after successful conversion Extension: dng Compatibility: CR 16.0 and later JPEG Preview: None Emebed fast load data: NO Use Lossy compression: NO Embed Original Raw File: NOWhile I do understand the benefit of DNG over proprietary raw, for long term support, I do not think it’s a good idea to allow an increase in file size without a warning.While the alleged open character of the dng format is a good selling point, I do not think it’s going to be an issue to open raw files in the future. Nevertheless, I appreciate that option. Therefore I think the main selling point of dng would be a higher compression yielding in smaller files.Note: I also know that a Lossy compression would obviously output smaller files, but that’s not the point. 

I’m experiencing a recurring problem with Lightroom Classic (v15.3) on macOS, running on a MacBook M5 Max with approximately 2.5 TB of free disk space. I haven’t encountered this issue prior to version 15.3, although I’m not certain if it is directly related.SymptomsLightroom opens the catalog, but: spinning beachball appears frequently images can sometimes be selected, but no zoom previews remain blank or don’t load UI is partially responsive, but core functionality is blocked Replacing the catalog with a backup does not fix the issue Deleting Previews.lrdata also no effect Deleting .lock, .wal, .shm has no effect Initially, a full system restart resolved the issue. However, the problem has now progressed to a point where even restarting macOS no longer fixes it. Lightroom still opens in the same unusable state (beachball, no zoom, missing previews).When the issue occured:No Lightroom process is visible anymore in Activity Monitor However, Lightroom still behaves as if something is

When I open a Lightroom catalog in LR classic (version 15.3.1), the histograms and 1:1 previews of the images won't load. When I try to do anything, Lightroom will freeze and crash and I'll have to force quit. I’m using a Macbook Pro updated to Tahoe 26.5.1, I've cleared video and RAW caches, cleared preferences, shut off GPU, checked the integrity of the catalogs, optimized them, uninstalled and reinstalled LR, and restarted my computer.

Hello, I need some help please.I can't import photos into Lightroom Classic. When I try to locate the folder, the thumbnails appear gray with no preview. When I try to quit the software, it crashes. I've tried everything: updates, creating another library, uninstalling and reinstalling Lightroom Classic, restarting—nothing works. Thanks

HDR editing not available on my Google Pixel 9 Pro XL with LR Version 11.3.3.When I try swithing to hdr editing mode, lightroom just says my “device is not supported”, eventhough pixel 9 pro is listed as a supported device. Interestingly the pixel 9 pro xl is not listed specifically, but why would there be any difference between pixel 9 pro and pixel 9 pro xl?It did work previously, then my phone got replaced through warranty and now it does not work anymore. Taking HDR photos and editing them in other apps does work perfectly fine.Really annoying and absolutely ridiculous that Lightroom has such issues with this feature, where other apps work just fine.

Select some files (seems to happen more often with larger exports). Export them to a directory. While that export is still getting ready, immediately open the export dialog again and export again to a different directory.Sometimes, one of the two export jobs gets duplicated and you'll see 3 exports in progress instead of 2. Checking the two directories afterwards will confirm that one of them has twice as many files.Also, rarely, one or more of the files from one of the exports (first I think?) won't be exported, but no error or dialog will be shown indicating that this happened.Tested on macOS Tahoe on a 16" M5 Max MacBook Pro

I figured this out but thought I would post it...might be helpful.I opened 3 images from Lr Classic to Photoshop (current versions)I edited them and used the Export As command to create a high quality JPG to be used as a print master I then imported those jpgs into my Lr Catalog and forgot Ps was even running. When I went back to Lr, they showed as my Previous Imports… But they were not able to be found in the Library module. There enclosing folder couldn’t be found either! After syncing and trying to figure it out I decided to optimize, quit, restart and realized the  original files were still open in Ps After quitting Ps they issue disappeared.Odd, huh?  

I started using Loupedeck CT with Lightroom Classic. It boosts the workflow. While using it, whenever I change a setting, on the screen there appears an indicator that says which setting is being handled. Is there a way to also indicate or show a progress bar by how much it is changed (value)? It would be super helpful as I don’t want to all the time have to scroll the right bar to find the setting that I am currently changing. Thanks a lot for your help!

This thread is for Camera Raw & Lightroom Classic feedback on the (Early Access) Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI)For the Lightroom Ecosystem feedback, click here.  The Lightroom team is dedicated to building capabilities that foster trust and transparency in the age of AI. Our latest release, as part of the Content Authenticity Initiative (https://contentauthenticity.org/), allows you to add content credentials to your work when exporting in Lightroom to ensure provenance and preserve authenticity.   New content credential capabilities are available across the Lightroom ecosystem (Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, Lightroom for mobile (iOS & Android), Lightroom for web), and Adobe Camera Raw in Early Access. When exporting a JPEG from Lightroom, you can attach your name, social media handle, and a list of edits via a digital signature.   You can find the option to apply Content Credentials while exporting a JPEG in the export panel. It is, by default, turned OFF

ライブラリ、および現像モジュールで、左右キーを使って前後の写真に移動しても、表示される写真が変わらない。サムネイルで選択されている写真は正しく移っているが、写真が読み込まれていない。

Non capisco, ho importato le foto come al solito ma dopo averle modificate tornando in gallerie mi compare un punto esclamativo nero. Il messaggio riporta che sono stati rilevati dei problemi da Lightroom durante la lettura di questa foto. Non sarà possibile effettuare regolazioni sulla foto. Ma la foto inizialmente era modificabile. Ho rimosso la foto dal catalogo e importata di nuovo. Funziona ma poi tornando in galleria stesso problema. Anche altre foto hanno lo stesso problema. E’ la prima volta che mi capita in tanti anni.

When culling I'll do a pass of selects and refine selection. Afterwards when I notice some photos are flagged when others aren’t, often after going through a ways, meaning I have to make sure that everything has been unselected and start over.I’ve already turned off that horrid AI culling feature but there is still some random selection going on. 

This does not help.  LR continues to apply presets.  I also changed the Develop  Setting field to None in the Apply During Import panel.  It still makes changes to my photos when I import.

I recently factory reset both my computer + lightroom classic because of some annoying bugs i was dealing with. Before i reset everything, i was sure to export my presets like normal and store those on my external hard drive to keep them from getting deleted during the reset. Now that I am ready to go back in and edit, i’ve tried to import my presets like i always do with no problem. However, only a small fraction of the presets I exported are showing up. They are all in the zip file, so I know they exist. They’re just not showing up for me to edit with, which is incredibly frustrating. I feel like i’ve tried just about every fix i’ve seen online to no avail. please help!!! :,))))
