Lightroom Classic

Lightroom previews won’t stop “Loading.” And these are minimal-size previews, which I created when this problem started with 1:1 previews after I removed all the files from Lightroom and re-imported them. And, when I attempt to build 1:1 previews, even if I only select one, the progress bar doesn’t move at all or gets stuck. This issue just started up a day or two ago. 

I think it occurs when an image is synced to the Cloud, but in Lr Classic the text of a caption or description field in the image metadata is being stripped of all the paragraph breaks so all the paragraphs disappear and the field becomes one unreadable block of text. 

Yesterday in a small hotel in Oceanside I opened Lightroom, on my system “TL3” but the system said “you need to log out on one of your systems” incl. the very same TL3, and listed the laptop as a “new system” without a name. So I logged out my main workstation at home and started to edit my images. After a making a backup of my work, I started today LR classic again, but to my surprise it asked again for email and password, and than said with error 18000 “cannot confirm your subscription status and exited LR !!! Not even access to the library module!  As I am typing it, I am logged in to Adobe of course, and I am using a hot-spot on my phone. Ookla speed-test shows a decent speed. I can watch Youtube for example. That is not right. How do I get access to my Lightroom? This entire model is seemingly flawed.

Develop sliders jumped to the wrong position when clicked moved way over to the left, on macOS 26.2 with a Magic Trackpad on an iMac. Say it was fixed by rolling back

Description of Issue: I recently upgraded Lightroom classic to version 15.6. Before that it used to take around 10 seconds to run Denoise in one of my files (photos from Nikon Z8). Now it takes around 25 to 30 seconds. This time does not change if I set the “Use Graphics Processor” preferences to off or custom. It seems that the software is always using the CPU instead of GPU. In spite of this behaviour, the application is recognising my processor (Apple M1 Ultra) and it says that it supports full acceleration.Lightroom Classic Version 15.6OS version 26.7.1Camera model: Nikon Z8Hardware: Mac Studio M1 Ultra, 128 GB

I start with an edited version (lightroom adjustments only) of a photo in lightroom. I make a copy of it and then click reset on the new copy. This copy is essentially no modifications at this point. I then edit that copy in photoshop. When I am done editing in PS, I save it. I then open that PS-modified version in lightroom and paste ALL settings I have copied from the original to this new TIFF version. I expect the changes to work but it looks wrong. I notice the REMOVED tool item masks are strange. It looks like the REMOVE masks in the version that I pasted to are 90 degrees rotated - clockwise. Basically, copy/paste of masks does not work from a raw file to a tiff version. It’s like PS messed up the orientation indicator or something and LR got confused?

Since updating to latest version 15.3 I cannot use my presets or update AI edits.When I try I get a box appear saying I am downloading AI models. This gets to 99% then stops. Then when I try to use presets or update the AI edits I get a red box that says ‘some Ai models failed to download. Please try again later.This has been going on since yesterday. I have tried uninstalling LR and reverting to previous version but problem persists.  Any ideas?  

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

It seems to happen when syncing images to the Cloud, but LrC is stripping the paragraph breaks/returns from the caption field in the metadata of images, creating one large block of text impossible to read. When you Read Metadata from File, the breaks are restored and the caption field looks normal again. Then a few moments later the breaks disappear, I think when the image syncs to the Cloud. The Caption field text was created in Photoshop not in LrC. But Classic reads the data, then ruins it. This behaviour started about 2 months ago. 

Having a photograph with people in it—whether in any location, close-up, background, etc.—when I try to apply a mask to detect people, the program tells me that “no people were found”, and therefore it doesn't generate the mask. This started happening after the latest updates, though I'm not entirely sure since I don't use that feature very often.

Prior to around 10:00 am  today, I could right click an image I was editing in Lightroom Classic and select "Edit In" and then "Edit in Adobe Photoshop 2026..." and it would open  Photoshop 2026, if one wasn't already open, and then open a TIFF called "<image filename>-Edit.tif" with all my Lightroom edits. It was working this morning, but now suddenly when I right click the image in Lightroom Classic and select "Edit in"and then "Edit in Adobe Photoshop 2026..." it will open Photoshop 2026 but will not open the file...it just stops at the Photoshop Recent File list.  I have tried all of these:1. Checking for updates. Non available.  I’m all up to date.2. Trying through the top menu: Photo>Edit in> Edit in Adobe Photoshop 2026...” but that didn’t work.3. Restarting my computer. That didn’t work.3. Uninstalling both Photoshop and Lighroom, restarting my computer, and then reinstalling Photshop first and Lightroom second.  I did it twice: once keeping all of the plugins on my

When using the color grading panel the numerical fields for the Hue and Sat input behave erratically. When moving the Hue slider sometimes the last digit disappears. This happens with single Color Wheel interface. So instead if displaying 235 the field displays 23. It shows this behavior with various value: 231 shows 231, but 220 shows 22. You can check this  when displaying all 3 color wheels simultaneously. The hue values in both image is 235.Lightroom classic is showing this behavior since the last update, 15.6 release. This seems like a bug. I have tried resetting everything to the default settings but that doesn't make any difference.When I edit the same photo in Photoshop Camera Raw, Color Grading behaves as expected.

I just discovered something weird that in over 15 years of using Lightroom Classic (and it's several other names over the years) I have never seen before.  I have 165k photos imported into my catalog.  I have a photo with the name DSC01885.ARW and a virtual copy of it.  When I sort the photos by capture time they are separated by several photos.  Looking carefully at the times of the photos I see the several photos were taken at 12:52:09 to 12:52:47 on 2009/12/23.  Here is the order they appear in grid view when sorted by capture time:DSC01885.ARW 12:52:47DSC01882.ARW 12:52:09DSC01883.ARW 12:52:31DSC01884.ARW 12:52:46DSC01885.ARW 12:52:47 (virtual copy)When I sort the photos by file name they are not next to each other either.  They appear separated by several photos.Weird.  Any ideas?Mac version.  Backup function performed on every exit daily.

This post applies to Lightroom Classic and the Lightroom Ecosystem products. Camera Raw feedback can be found here.   Generative Remove makes it easier to remove unwanted objects and distractions with a simple gesture, even on complex backgrounds. For more accurate results, be sure to include the object's shadow in your selection and/or expand its size.    Detect Objects uses AI to find the objects underneath a brushed area. The masked areas will now appear larger than the Early Access version of this feature. You can also circle objects for quicker selection now.    We have also updated the spot selection experience to make it easier to manage variations, switch the fill type, refine the selection area, or re-generate as needed.    Batch updating is also now supported for Generative Remove spots.    Try out the latest updates and share your feedback with us here.

I’m a real estate photographer and I use Lightroom Classic to merge the bracketed images. Could be 3 or 5 bracketed images for a total of 30/50 final images .When I launch the action in Lightroom it’s working well until I stay in the same panel or in the same folder, but if i move the process stay stack to the last image in process. Before I was used to move in other folder and do something else.Lightroom doesn’t freeze totally but only the HDR process and I’m unable to quite the process and launch un’other one.The only way is close lightroom , reopen it and launch again the process and this is annoing.To have the process done I have to stay in the same panel and do not change folder and wait until the end.I have LR 15.6 but this issue started at list from 3 or 4 realise ago.
