My lightroom is stuck on a folder and will not allow me to return to the home page. Any suggestions?
I'm wondering what the current recommended order of edits is for a RAW image in LrC. I'm interested in the resulting image, not performance. A post on this thread about order of edits mirrors this page about performance optimization, which puts even an AI adaptive profile at #10. Another Adobe page (and my basic understanding) states that an adaptive profile should be applied first. Instinctively, I wonder myself why a lens profile isn't applied near the beginning—but that's just me trying to think it all through. So, just wondering what the current actual guidance is! Hoping I'm just missing a link.
I have been experiencing a bug? for some time when using library filtering in a Publish Collection and the resulting photo auto-advance if an item gets removed from view after metadata modification.To replicate it:Create a Publish collection (Hard drive, Flickr or Zenfolio etc.)Place 5 or more photos in this collection.Apply an identical rating, color label or keyword to at least of the 4 photosUse a library filter to display just the photos that match the above.So, then I have for example 4 photos A,B,C,D (each rated 2 stars) that are displayed in the filtered publish collection.If I change the rating of photo A to have a single star,Photo A gets removed from the display and selected photo in LR then auto-advances to photo C instead of the expected photo B.(It moves 2 positions forward instead of 1)I have repeated this in LIghtroom 4.4, 5.71 and CC2015.9 on my desktop (Win7) and also with LR C2015.8 on my laptop (Win10).The behavior does not change with the Auto-advance menu setting c

When using Include Subfolders, Lightroom scans folders in multiple passes. The file count (e.g. “5521 photos / 4 GB”) jumps up and down as new subfolders are discovered, suspected duplicates are filtered out, etc. The Import button, however, is active from the very beginning. This creates two major problems:1. Users can press Import before scanning is finished and end up importing only a partial set of photos — with no warning.2. The detailed progress status (remaining files, duplicates ignored, previously imported, total size) is hidden unless you click or hover over the counter. Most users never discover this. Suggested improvements: Always display the full scanning/progress status (remaining, duplicates ignored, previously imported, size selected/ignored). If Include Subfolders is enabled, keep the Import button disabled until scanning is complete. At minimum, show a warning dialog: “Scanning is not finished yet. Are you sure you want to import only partial results?” Al
I recently replaced an old PC running Windows 10 with a new PC that came loaded with Windows 11. I installed fresh copies of Lightroom Classic and Photoshop on the new PC using Creative Cloud Desktop. I've had no problems at all for the past month or so, until now. I just tried publishing one of my photos to my Flickr account, and ran into an issue. After dragging and dropping the image into the Flickr Collection (that worked fine), when I clicked on the "Publish" button, Lightroom threw up the following error message: I did what I always do and Googled the error message. I found several forum posts (mostly on the Adobe site) that gave suggestions on resolving the issue. Most involved removing authorization and re-authorizing the plug-in. I tried that, several times, and it didn't help. I tried running Lightroom as an Administrator (another suggestion I read); still got the error message after trying to re-authorize with Flickr. I emptied the browser (Google Chrome) cac
Lightroom Classic issue after Mac OS Updates: Software: Lightroom ClassicOS: Mac OS Sequoia 15Issue: Catalog freezing; Sync would not progress; Upon import, could not locate/existing Collections not displaying; endless/frozen Optimize Catalog I've been having issues with LrClassic ever since the big Mac OS and Adobe updates in October 2024. Here are the issues I'm running into lately! 1 - Catalog Freezing: When I open LrClassic, it freezes for 2-3 minutes completely before I can do anything. Once it is unfrozen, if I want to import images to my catalog, I cannot add anything to existing collections (they do not display, the list is empty). 2 - Sync does not progress:Sync is just stuck spinning, nothing syncs. 3 - Optimize Catalog does not work:If I try to optimize the catalog, it sits infinitely and I have to force quit Lightroom. I spent 4 hours on the phone with Adobe, and they got it working once we copied my catalog into a new catalog. And then Mac
I recently saw a blurb attributed to Adobe saying that if one elects to use the Denoise tool that it should be the first step in the editing process before anything else is done, and it made me wonder if there is a "best" or "preferred" order for applying other tools like Enhance Details, Super Resolution, or for that matter if there exists a general guideline of the order in which one should attack the editing process? It seems to me that setting white balance should be done before adjusting saturation, for example, but I'm wondering what I may be overlooking in the order of other steps? Thanks for any suggestions!
In Lightroom’s Library Grid View, it’s hard to see which photo is selected. The current selection border is too thin and faint.Please make the active photo more visible (e.g., thicker border, stronger highlight, or a user setting). This would make culling and organizing much easier.
I upgrded from LR 6.14 the the latest Adobe Photography plan (on Windows 11) and only require LR Classic and and PS. After running the new LR and then closing the application there were still a dozen processes running,. I contacted support and they said that apps were Creative Cloud apps. I explained that I wasn't interested in Creative Cloud so they walked me through removing Creative Cloud. A couple days later PS wouldn't start - said I didn't have Creative Cloud installed. I called support and the support person I got said I had to have Creative Cloud installed or PS wouldn't run. Nice. Anyway, I installed Creative Cloud and PS worked. But then I was balk to the plethora of Adobe applications still loaded. I understand that that Adobe wants to check for updates or check the validity of the application, but can this not be done when the application starts and then whatever performs the update/validation check then terminate?&nbs
Looking through the fora here and on lightroom queen there have been a substatial number of posts looking to achieve smart collectoions that include a filter for "edited int he last n weeks/days". At present, this does not generate meaningful results because the current "edit date" criterion is modified by any minor change to metadata (such as opening the file or some LR updates etc) AS WELL AS genuine image edits. I would find it enormously useful if there was a develop edit date that indicated the last date when an image was altered (covering raw files and also psd, tif or dng saved back to LR). The smart collections are an imprtant tool and deserve a little more attention as a sorting and filtering mechanism - this is an important example
OMDS (formerly Olympus) provides image editing software, OM WorkSpace (WS), specifically for their proprietary ORF raw image format. While LrC is superior in so many ways, I believe that with respect to detail, sharpening and noise of their high resolution ORF images specifically, WS has an edge. I would like to see a plugin for LrC to allow initial processing in WS then further processing and cataloguing in LrC.This may be an issue for OMDS or a 3rd party plugin provider. Apologies if it's not an Adobe issue.
I'm comparing the results of converting ORF files type (Olympus RAW files) to JPG using Lightroom Classic and using OM Workspace. It looks like the algorytm used by OMW is much better than the one from Adobe, generating images much more clear, with less noise and better general quality. I understand that OM is the creator of the ORF files format and can manipulate them better than a generalyst software like Adobe. My question is if there is a way to play with different configurations of the JPG conversion method (other than the few ones that appear in Lightroom when exporting files) to achieve better results. Has anyone experienced this problem and find out a way to improve it? Thanks
Pues eso, que no me deja instalar LR Classic por no cumplir con los requisitos del sistema. Sé que antes te dejaba instalar versiones más antiguas para evitar este problema. ¿Es posible hacer eso ahora? Gracias
Hi, I cannot seem to find Capture Time in the metadata anymore. Used to use it every shoot to correct 2nd shooter's (slightly off) camera times. I thought it was in EXIF, but I can't find it anywhere. And if it's gone how are you supposted to change the capture time now? Thank you!
Most of my clients work in a team environment, where they like to make there own image selections for their specific usuage. In the past, they were able to see their teammates selections/comments as well as there own. That appears to no longer be the case. Is this a glitch or did something change? I can see all their individual choices on my side of the proofing gallery, but it's making it hard for my clients team to collaborate. Thanks
New Denoise AI incompatibility with photo format....Why ? I've updated to the new LRC and wanted to try out the new Denoise Ai but in every image in my library, it says that it doesn't support the photo format. I shoot with a nikon D500 on a Sony XQD card in Jpeg......What is so radical about that format that it wouldn't be supported by the new denoise AI ?
My GPU is an RTX 470 with 12 GB of RAM. Adobe says that to use the new preview generation in LR Classic 14.5.1 it needs 16GB of RAM. So I tried it with my GPU. On AUTO (in Performance) it uses a little of the GPU, but I have to switch it to ON to force LR to use more of the GPU. Even then, it only uses a maximum of 30% of the 12GB available. Not sure whether it is any faster, but it does lower CPU use significantly and thus CPU temperature. So why does Adobe say it needs 16GB, when it doesn't even use more than about 4GB of my current GPU? Bob Frost
I'm using Lightroom Classic 14.5.1. I recently moved catalogue files on my harddrive. As of now, they are all back in their original location, and everything seems to work fine in my LrC desktop client. As soon as I try to go to my synced, public collections on the web though, they show as empty (even though they are showing the correct images in my desktop client). If others try to access the same collections, they get a notification that those collections are private (even though they're showing as set to public in the desktop client). If I try to go to lightroom.adobe.com, I get an error message saying "We're sorry, but an unexpected error ocurred." Searching around, the source of the issues seemed to point to the The MobileDownloads.lrdata file. That is back in its original location, too, but still no luck on the web side of things. I have a lot of online collections distributed and would really like to get these back to regular wo
Hi everyone, I’ve been using Adobe products for over 10 years, and as a wedding photographer Lightroom is the core of my workflow. I’d love to suggest two features that could really change the game for event photographers: AI Face Detection for Faster Image SearchAt weddings, I often get requests like “Can you send me a photo of ......?” A built-in face detection tool (similar to PicTime) would make it so much easier to quickly find specific people during or after events. AI-Driven Preset ProfilesSomething like Imagine AI, but integrated into Lightroom—an AI profile that learns from your edits and applies them consistently. This could massively speed up workflows and personalize results. Lightroom is already an essential tool, but these additions could make it revolutionary for photographers who handle thousands of images under time pressure. Would love to hear if others would find this helpful too!
Bonjour, Je viens vers vous car je suis au bout des solutions que j'ai pu explorer. J'ai un problème depuis l'installation de Lightroom sur mon ordinateur (V 14.5.1). Sur certaines photos, dès que je veux utiliser la détection de personnes, le logiciel crash. Tout mes pilotes sont à jour.J'ai désactivé l'utilisation du GPU pour le traitement de l'image, ce qui résout le problème. Cependant, je souhaitais savoir si cela réduisait grandement l'impact sur les performances de l'application et s'il y a un moyen de résoudre ce problème sans limiter l'utilisation du GPU. Configuration de l'appareil portable : - Intel Core Ultra 9 285H - Intel ARC 140T - 32Go Ram Cordialement, Tristan.
Hi, Ailandas here.I am reporting a critical bug affecting the core workflow between Lightroom Classic and Photoshop. This issue has persisted for over 9 months and on a completely fresh Windows installation. The standard "Edit In" and "Save" workflow consistently fails, causing me to lose the link to my files and severely impacting my productivity. Environment:Operating System: Windows 11 Pro 22H2Lightroom Classic Version: 14.5.1Photoshop Version: 26.10Problem Description: The core workflow of Edit In Photoshop from Lightroom Classic is failing. After a file is edited and saved in Photoshop, it is not automatically detected or imported back into the Lightroom catalog, leading to a File cannot be found error for the original file and requiring a manual re-import. This issue has persisted for over 9 months, across multiple software and operating system reinstalls. Steps to Reproduce:In Lightroom Classic, I select a RAW file and right-click, choosing Edit In > Adobe Photoshop.I select
Hi everyone! I`ve had this problem since one of the updates of LR for Mac in december`21. I`ve already read all the simillar topics here and I`ve already did everything suggested in comments, all the methods that helped the others. I know that tthe diffeerence of colours is possible, because of different colour space in these modes (ProPhoto RGB and Adobe RGB), but all the way before I didn`t have any problem like this. Everything was perfect. The problem is that The colors look correctly in the Library mode (naturally, as they always were), the picture is loaded slightly in the Develop mode and the color distortion occurs, the feeling is as if there is some preset. The faded warm filter seems to be applied and I can't change it in any way, because in fact no settings were applied. I`ve already changed the colour profile of my monitor, on/off grafic processor, reinstalled all new and previous versions of LR, wrote to the customers support. Nothing helped. I ne
Would a MacBook Pro m4 pro 12 core cpu 16 core gpu 48gb ram be good enough to edit uncompressed raw files from a Sony a7rv in lightroom classic? thanks
Using v 14.5.1 and windows 11, when I open LR, the first screen loads then freezes the whole computer, mouse doesn't work, can't close the program or switch to another window. Must close LR be using ctrl, alt, del key combo and restarting windows.
