Help. I "did something", I honestly don't remember what, and instantly all 6500 of my photographs became gray squares. I watched a course video in which the instructor said, don't worry, they're still there but he didn't say where!

Denoise does not seem to be working on monochrome DNG files and it was working a few weeks ago. I tried it on files that it had worked in the past and it does not work. When I try to use it, the enhanced preview is blank and then it tells me it not applied due to an unknown error (1).  Has anyone else seen this error? (It works on color DNG files)

I have a new Mac book air and have just downloaded LR and LRC. Neither program can see my photos file. I have checked that LR has all permissions required. Please help.

Hi, for some time now I’ve been editing my photos only in the Lightroom app on macOS, and I took a break from using Lightroom Classic. Yesterday I decided to go back to Classic, but the photos I edited in the Lightroom app won’t work in the Classic version. When I try to import them, the preview is unavailable, and if I try to drag the photos into the program or import them, I get an error. Just to add, I have all the latest updates installed, the photos are stored on an external drive, and they’re saved as local files, not in the cloud. Has anyone else encountered this issue and knows how to fix it?

Hallo,   mir ist leider ein blöder Fehler passiert. Ich habe Bilder innerhalb von Lightroom von Festplatte A zu Bestplatte B verschoben. Allerdings habe ich alle Bilder markiert und nicht die Ordnerstruktur. Daher hat Lightroom die Bilder (38k) in einen einzelnen Ordner verschoben. Das hat nicht ganz geklappt, da durch doppelte Dateinamen einzelne Dateien nicht kopiert wurden. Ich hatte dann versucht die Bilder wieder zurück zu kopieren, dann wurde mitgeteilt, dass einzelne Ordner schon vorhanden sind und jetzt ist noch mehr durcheinander. Ich habe noch einen Lightroom Catalog als Backup gesichert, bevor ich das ganze Verschieben gestartet hatte. Jetzt meine Frage, kann ich diesen ursprünglichen Zustand wieder herstellen oder bin ich gezwungen die 38k Bilder von Hand neu zu sortieren?   Viele Grüße und vielen Dank Marcel   {Moved from Lightroom Cloud to Lightroom Classic Forum by Moderator} 

There is an issue with the following 4 settings  in LRC 13.2: Highlights, Shadows, Whites, Blacks The issue is that they are applied erratically and the same setting values yield very different results in photos taken at the same time with the same camera, lens, iso, aperture and shutter speed.In my case it was a timelapse, so the photos are identical in terms of properties and I could reproduce this easily with adjacent images in the timelapse.To make sure my files aren't damaged somehow, I did the same edits in CaptureOne and everything works fine there.Furthermore I downgraded to LRC 13.0 and all is good again, the issue cannot be reproduced. Steps to reproduce:1. Setup the camera for a timelapse, in my case I used:shutter speed: 6 secondsiso: 100aperture: f1.41 frame every 10 secondsquality: raw2. Get the raw files into LRC3. Go to Develop and enable "Auto Sync", then click on the first image in the set.4. Edit this image, move the shadows slider about 3/4 to th

Finally upgraded to Lightroom Classic (desktop, annual plan). Stuggling with importing my existing catalogs from Lightroom 5 into Lightroom Classic. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm trying to export small JPG files of raw images on my Mac. A window opens that says unable to export, and the .text file that does export says "XMP develop error." Full disk access has been granted in my Mac system preferences and  I've done it 10 times on a PC no issue. Thank you. 

I keep getting a number of emails from this community every day.  I thought I unsubscribed but they are still being sent. How do I unsubscribe from the list except for replies to topics I post?

Hello, Is it possible to change the shortcuts in Lightroom Classic Dutch version?I use the Dutch version of LRC on a desktop with a Windows 11 Dutch version and an AZERTY  keybord.Several shortcuts are not working and I would like to move them to another key combination.Does anyone have a solution for this? Thanks!

Ich wollte Lightroom Classic einsetzen, musste aber feststellen, dass ich es zwar installieren konnte aber nicht die Sprache ändern kann (von Spanisch auf Deutsch). Vor einiger Zeit hatte ich auch Ligthroom installiert und auch dort mit viel Mühe die Sprache geändert. Leider funktioniert das hier nicht. Kann mir jemand weiterhelfen?  

Issue: "Add folder" always opens import if folder is not empty and folder cannot be added without importing anythingLightroom Version Number: Classic 11.5 (but the issue is present at least from LR6)OS Version Number: Win 10, Win 11Steps to reproduce:Open library, navigate to "Folders" panelClick "+" and select "Add folder..."Try to add folder, that is not empty Expected result: Folder is added to the libraryActual result: Import dialog is opened and unless I import anything, I cannot add the folder to the library.The problem gets worse if the folder contains empty subfolder. The import dialog is still opened (because the folder is not empty), yet there is nothing to import. So it is impossible to add such folder into the library.

Starting last night, if I use DeNoise, it stalls and then crashes Lightroom Classic and my computer.  Tested GPU and it is working well.  Unable to force shutdown as it remains running in the background and I have to unplug my computer in order to be able to restart it.

Hallo zusammen! Seit Weihnachten hatte ich sporadisch Abbrüche in Lightroom, meist, wenn ich meinen NAS Server synchen wollte. Oder Bilder exportieren.Seit dem Frühjahr passierte das auch, wenn ich nur Bilder auf der Festplatte auswählte.Ein neuer Katalog brachte keine Änderung.Die LR Dateien von D auf C zu verlagern brachte keine Änderung.Nun auf einer beruflichen Reise wurde das immer extremer. Lightroom öffnen führte meist dazu, dass ein Ordner, ein Bild geöffnet wurde.Sowie ich ein anderes Bild anklickte, oder den Ordner wechselte: Abbruch.Einfach LR öffnen und erst einmal warten: Abbruch.Nach dem vierten, fünften Neustart klappte es dann manchmal einige Zeit.Import (von 100 bis über 10.000 Bilder pro Tag) wurde zum Glückspiel.Waren alle Bilder importiert und verschoben kam regelmäßig der Abbruch, wenn LR die Meldung brachte "Bilder nicht in DNG Format" importiert. AbbruchOft auch schon vorher während dem Import.Den Rechner in den Turbo-Modus zu versetzen brachte temporär Linderung

bonjour à tous Je viens d'acquérir Lr classic 14.3.1 Je ne parviens pas à faire la mise à niveau d'un ancien catalogue issu de lightroom 4 et utilisé sans problème sur la dernière version non payante de lightroom 6. Quelqu'un a t'il une solution ? Merci infiniment pour votre aide...

Bonsoir,Je n'arrive plus à faire un export de photos après retouche sur disque dur externe, voici le message d'erreur que j'ai à chaque fois. Merci pour votre aide 

I'm trying to replace the synched originals I have in the Cloud with re-uploads from my hard drive so that Smart Previews reside in the cloud thus saving space. The originals are downloads in LrClassic from images which were originally uploaded to the cloud in LrMobile and edited while I was travelling. The method I have been using to swap out  these Originals in the Cloud with Smart Previews uploaded from Classic was recommended to me on this forum. I unsynced the images in LrClassic by removing them from All Synched Photos , causing the originals in the cloud to be deleted. Once deleted, I am then trying to resync them from LrC and upload the Smart Previews to the cloud. However, I'm finding that after I've removed images from All Synched Photos and then re-added them to the Synched Collection in Classic, they won't re-upload but get stuck. I have found however that if I make a copy of the Original file in a different folder and synch that it uploads easily a

I’m trying to bring out more luminance in my photos on my MacBook Pro with an XDR display. When I increase Exposure, Lights, or Whites to expand the histogram into the extra HDR stops, the colors end up looking like they came from an acid festival.When I check the exported HDR photo in the Gain Map Demo App, I notice that the gain map contains colors. However, when I look at HDR photos from Instagram or the Radiance+ app on iOS, their gain maps appear monochrome.Why is it like that, and how can I change it? Also, why does adjusting the HDR version of the photo affect the SDR version too? I already have a finalized SDR photo—I just want to add luminance for HDR without altering the SDR image.

I've always used the "loupe info" in the develop mode for reference as I develop photos. Suddenly, it now works in the library mode only (where  it didn't before), and now not showing at all in the develop mode screen. ??

Dit weekend gewerkt in het programma Lightroom en dat was OK. De dag nadien het programma opnieuw willen opstarten maar nu lukt het niet meer. Start op maar sluit onmiddellijk. Gaat over Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 6. Ik heb het programma al opnieuw geinstalleerd maar zelfde probleem.   {Moved from Lightroom Cloud to Lightroom Classic Forum by Moderator} 

I'm running Lightroom CC Classic release 7.1 (with Camera Raw 10.1) which is current as of Dec.22, 2017.  I'm trying to export a slideshow as a video, and it's either VERY slow, or completely stuck... I can not tell which, but the progress bar (at the top left corner of the Lighroom screen) never moves.  I see that people have reported similar problems in years past, but solved them in one way or another.  I find nothing about this release of Lightroom however, so I decided to start a new thread.  My computer is a MacBookPro running OS X 10.13.2 (High Sierra which is also current as of Dec.22, 2017) , and I have the ffmpeg program installed in /usr/local/bin/ (which is the default for that program, and I thought I'd mention it because I saw a post somewhere that claimed some sort of conflict between that program and Lightroom but I can't find that post today).Thanks in advance for any insight into this problem.  Adobe must have tested this, so it must be someth
