Lightroom Classic

Lightroom Classic Metadata conflict errors appeared on thousands of images overnight.  Tried overriding on several hundred.  I do use xmp sidecar files on newer images.  Conflicts happens on both, with and without sidecar files.  Looking for advice.  

La visualisation du niveau de floutage n'apparait plus dans le développement .Il faut aller dans la bibliothèque pour la visualser.

I imported images into a dated 2025 folder, subfolder Joshua Tree.  Import successful but a ! And a new subfolder appeared with a ? and warning subfolder missing.  What did I do?  Thank you.    [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.]

I need help syncing my photos from Classic to LR so that I can edit on the go. whenever I try to sync a catalog, all my photos from lightroom show up in my Classic Catalog, but none of my photos from Classic apear in Lightroom. The collections I create and sync appear in Lightroom as albums, but without the photos. What can I do to resole this?

I updated my Lightroom classic lastnight before finalizing a clients gallery, and after I did that, ALL of my photos and presents are gone! What happened and how to I bring it back? I am now behind on delivering a gallery to a client because without my photos, I have to restart ALL of the photo edits all over. 

I posted earlier aboutb this issue. Here are the details with screen shots.   I can export the photos in TIFF or Raw, but not in JPG.I tried not to use water mark. Not working. It was working perfectly before.I need JPG for email attachments, and social media posting.Please help.

Some background: Currently have scanned 2,000 of Dad's 5,000 slides. Began a year ago with 20 yr. old Nikon 5000 and 10 yr. old Macbook Pro. Signed up for the Adobe Photographer deal with 20 Gig of cloud. My old Macbook could not run the latest LR version but Adobe came thru with a version it would run.  All fine, until I realized I'd quickly run out of cloud space.  Bought a new I-Mac and converted to LRC, and did not lose any scans in the process. Now I'm using LRC for my own photography and still scanning.  I just took a class on LR editing and was impressed by the instructor and his ability to sync to his phone.  Came home and added LR to my I-phone, Surprised to see my first 982 photos were available on the phone, same photos as on the old laptop. I have turned off sync in LR on the Macbook.  I have not yet turned on sync on the I-Mac. I'm worried the early photos will cause conflict. Do I need to delete the original photos (scans) from the cloud before sy

Greetings all, long time reader here. First time posting. This is going to be a long post, sorry. Just wanted to give as much information as I could . Over the last few updates for Lightroom I have noticed image rendering in the develop moduale getting slower, sometimes 10-15 seconds before it is ready to edit. I have done all of the suggested tips listed in the community and elsewhere. Nothing helped unfortunetly. I run a fairly new home build fast system and confident it is not the bottleneck. After doing all of the mentioned suggestions I could find I concluded I either have a bad Lightroom install or corrupt catolog system files. I have used Lightroom for a long time, maybe even the first version. Over that time I have accumalated about 7 or so different catologs with a total 300k images. I just updated to LR 15.0.1 which was a full update with updated catologs. So I was leaning more towards corrupted catolog files. My concern with any changes was not to loose any edit history. So

Hi thereI have many tens of thousands of images in my various LR Classic catalogs and everything is stored locally on my Macbook Pro M3 hard drive. In total it's taking up over 200 gb of space, most of which is backups and previews. I try to only keep the most recent backup of each catalog but I think the previews are an issue and I need to delete some to free up space. Is there an easy or sensible way to do this? I really only need to keep the previews for the current and recent projects I'm working on. How do I find and delete (or make smaller?) the previews for older folders? And then what happens if I want to go back and edit images from one of those older folders - will it then just recreate the previews at that point?Note that I don't use smart previews as I shoot wildlife and often have to check for details and sharpness at 100%. But it could be good to swap the older previews for smart previews now to free up space?Thanks for your help!

Wenn ich eine Lightroom-Kopie eines Fotos mit einer Farbe markiere, dann wird diese Farb-Kopie nicht zu den anderen Fotos mit derselben Farbe hinzusortiert, sondern sie separat neben dem ursprünglichen, nicht farbmarkierten Foto.  Wenn ich nun von einem Foto mehrere Kopien ziehe (cmd+T) und diese jeweils verschieden farbmarkiere, dann werden sie eben nicht zu der Gruppe der anderen farbmarkierten Fotos hinzugestellt, sondern sie bleiben im unmarkierten Rest der Session. Mit der Folge, dass sie gerne übersehen werden. Was muss ich tun ?

I have a plugin that I'm developing and I'm using a floating dialog. When LrC has either the Library, Map, Slideshow or Web module active, the floating dialog can be brought to the front by clicking on it from the Windows Task bar. The floating dialog will not come to the front when Develop, Book or Print are active. Is there a trick to this? Is there something that I'm missing? Is it as designed? Or is it a bug? Code is local profileDialog = { title = "Metadata Settings", contents = dialogLayout, resizable = false, save_frame = 'MetadataSettingsPosition', blockTask = true, windowWillClose = closeDialog, background_color = LrColor( "gray" ), } LrDialogs.presentFloatingDialog( _PLUGIN, profileDialog ) Does anyone know? 

I am having problems with the new lightroom update 15.0.01 (The lightroom assissted culling update). Whenever i am importing images from either my memory card (copy and import) or from my hard drive, just (Add to library) Only 1 or 2 of my images are actually gettting added into my library. i have ticked the option for do not add duplicates checked, and i am able to select all the images i am wanting to import. but they are not actually adding to the library! i keep repeating to pricess and only gaining 1 or 2 images each time. so there must be an issue. when i kept trying this process with the copy and import option through my memory card from the 200+ photos i was wanting, by the time i had actually got all the photos in my library i had over 1200+ photos in that folder on my hard drive!  i am really worried about loosing images when i try to mass import images such as portrait shoots and wedding galleries

correctly installed under Win 11, restarted the system, restarted LR, but profile is not shown when searched for softproofing 

I am using LRC 15.0.1 and I see that the Radial Gradient Mask has no handles to rotate it or change the feather or increase decrease the size.It seems similar problems have been reported a few years back.

I have several folders of lightroom classic catalogs and I am confused.  I would like to have just one folder with the lightroom classic catalogs and backups on an additional drive tha I have.  The original folder which is on my c:drive is cluttering my space and my c: drive is running out of space.  I have a data 😧 drive that is a 2T with space.  Can I merge all my catalogs into one and move it? Thank you so muchGracie

nach dem automatischen update auf v15 ist mein Katalog einfach leeer.Arbeit der letzten Wochen weg !Einspielen älterer Katalogdateien sind leer nach "Katalog muss aktualisiert werden"  Nutze LR seit V11 und hatte noch nie derartige probleme und datenverluste !

I am SO INFURIATED! Half of my photos from 2021 have been deleted when I tried transferring the folder from one harddrive to the other. I actually want to cry... it had wedding photos on there!! NEVER trusting Lightroom again when transferring files...

So, I went from RTX 2060 6gb to a 4070 Super 16gb because as soon as I used denoise on a file the entire Lightroom lagged. Now it lags even before that, it feels like despite having selected the GPU on the settings it still rather uses the CPU for most editing workflow.Simple such as cropping, zooming in or out, making a radiant mask lags a lot. Nothing relevant running the background.Things that I've already tried that made no difference:- Changing to earlier versions of LRClassic up to 14.0- Changing from Game ready drivers to Studio Drivers- Changing to an older Studio Driver *chatgpt suggestion- Making a new Catalog with a single new photo on a different SSD- Uninstalling GPU drivers (with DDU in safe mode)- Uninstalling everything Adobe and deleting every app folder (including Appdata Local and roaming)- Formatting my Desktop and fresh installing everything- Deactivating GPU on LR settings and activating again- Changing my monitors frequencies all the day down from 180 to 165 to 6

Good evening,when the monitor color gamut warning is enabled in Lightroom's soft proofing, the entire image turns red when using the sRGB IEC 61966-2.1 color profile. This does not happen with other profiles. If the GPU is disabled under Preferences - Performance, the image is displayed correctly even with the sRGB IEC 61966-2.1 profile.How can this error be fixed?System:Lightroom Classic 15.01Windows 11 Pro 64-bit, 25H2NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 graphics cardNVIDIA Studio driver version: 581.57 (Oct 14th, 2025)Thank you for your help.ChristianTranslated with DeepL.com (free version)

first, the name, Lightroom is no longer CC or whatever, but has "the" name, and Classic sounds a little bit like "soon obsolete".the interface of LrC is obsolete! LrC gets new features regularly but it is the only Adobe software with such and old and unergonomic UI. Why?The Adobe photography plans policy and prices, encouraging the use of Lr and cloud.Lr is getting closer to LrC in terms of features and capabilities every year. With nonetheless some big gaps: no subfolders view, no virtual copy, no plugins, less sort capabilities…LrC is slow.So I wonder, if LrC is going to be discontinued in 2, 3, 5 years, the photo community has to know and anticipate. Obviously in this scenario Adobe fears an exodus to C1, Darktable… It’s up to Adobe to give a secure, affordable and clever transition to Lr.If not, please optimize the code of LrC to have a lighter and faster engine, and please please give us a modern and ergonomic UI.

After applying an adjusted Lens Blur on top of a Subject mask, AI Edit Status > Update has to be invoked twice before the AI Edit Status button turns grey. This happens on only some photos.   Tested on LR 15.0.1 / Mac OS 15.7.1 and a virgin LR 15.0.1 / Mac OS 26.1. The bug doesn't occur on Windows 11. Screen recordings from the two installations are attached. To reproduce:   1.

Open the first photo in Develop.   3. Apply a Subject mask.   4. Apply Lens Blur, moving the right edge of the Focus Range rectangle to the left a little and setting Blur Amount = 100.  Observe the AI Edit Status button has turned yellow.   5.
