Lightroom Classic

Bonjour à tous,Je rencontre un problème très bloquant avec Lightroom Classic, que je n’ai jamais eu auparavant malgré des années d’utilisation.✅ Contexte :Lightroom Classic sur macOS (version à jour).Ma bibliothèque contient plus de 24 000 photos, réparties sur plusieurs disques durs externes.J’ai toujours pu voir les aperçus dans la bibliothèque pour toutes mes photos, même quand les disques externes n’étaient pas branchés.Je voyais les vignettes dans le module Bibliothèque, avec le petit point d’exclamation (!) pour signaler que les originaux étaient absents.Je ne pouvais pas retoucher les images tant que le disque n’était pas connecté, ce qui est logique sans aperçus dynamiques, mais je pouvais consulter ma bibliothèque❌ Problème actuel :Désormais, plus aucun aperçu ne s’affiche pour les photos situées sur les disques externes.Les vignettes sont entièrement grises (aucune miniature, aucun aperçu, même dans le module Développement).Seules les images stockées localement s

Hi, I'm using Adobe on an iMac along with a XP-Pen graphics tablet. Up until recently I've had no issues with any of the Adobe programs. I use Lightroom Classic and Photoshop predominantly. Usually when I open LR it loads up on my XP-Pen tablet. Recently LR has now been opening up on my iMac screen. It loads full size with the traffic light buttons not showing. I cannot resize the window to my usual config. All I can do is go into Window and select centre. The traffic lights then show and I can drag it to the XP. But, I have to drag to about 50% of the way down on the tablet screen, go back into window and select centre or fill screen. But, when I then try to use a plug-in, or in fact open any other program on my iMac, LR immediately reverts back to the oversized version on the iMac. I can't figure out how to get it back to how it was before. Interestingly, Photoshop is not affected.. Any help would be appreciated. Photos are when opening and after dragging so LR is not showing on both

This one is debatable, but I think it should be addressed.    When I edit a batch of photos in a collection filtered by camera type, the filter shows me only shots taken with that particular camera, as expected.   Occasionally, I'll use the "Enhance" function to remove noise on one of these files. Upon generating the new noise-reduced DNG file, LR's filters reset, revealing the entire collection containing all the cameras I used. I have to go back and reapply the filter I was using before.   The new file's metadata is still attributed to that camera, so technically, the metadata filter should still apply.   

Po aktualizacji aplikacja nie chce działać, jak chcę rozmyć tło, bądź wejść w inne funkcje to mi ładuje bardzo długo po czym mnie wyrzuca z aplikacji i tak w kółko. Nie da się nic zrobić, a opłaciłam premium. Wcześniej tak nie było, dopiero po aktualizacji tak jest, co robić...

I've disabled GPU in LR's options, and it seems to be preventing the crashing that's been prevalent for the past two or three LR updates but making LR slower to use in the Develop module.   

Hi all, I hope someone can help.  Since the upgrade to V13, I have been getting the below error when I try to export an edited photo.  I've tried on earlier photos, and ones imported since upgrade, and issue with them all. Unedited photos export fine.  I just updated to V13.0.1 and still have the issue. $$$/CRaw/Error/Unknown=There was an unknown error. (1) Hoping someone can advise!  Not sure if I need to completely change my export settings, but I'm exporting to JPEG, with Adobe RGB (1998) as I usually do. 

As of the past week and a half, my Lightroom Classic denoise feature is claiming not to be compatable with RAW files. It's always worked for me prior to this. Is anyone else having this issue, or just me? I currently work on a Macbook Pro, if relevant.  

Hi Community,  I wish to tether the Hasselblad X2D to Lightroom Classic. Is this even a possibility? So far, I haven't been able to find any literature online about this functionalityand I tried tethering on the mac, but Lightroom Classic doesn't recognize the X2D body. Thank you!

Hi.I want to buy some quality AI presets to use on landscape photos. But it's a jungle out there, and I am somehow confused what, and where, to look.I will try to compose my own AI presets in the future, but with only a couple of months experience with LrC - I'll try with others work and learn how to tweak these when needed.So I am not looking for advices on how to make my own AI presets right now - but only recommendations on where to buy some.Have a nice weekend 🙂

I seem to have a very similar problem. I have tried since yesterday to export a collection of 293 files to a USB stick, but also directly to the desktop. Every time the export stopped after 45 files. This morning I started the export in reverse order, i.a. starting with the last file of the 293. I managed the export of 117 files. This never happened before. I use Lightroom since many decades without any problem. I regularly update it. What can I do?  Bernd 

Bonjour, Il semble que mon lightroom classic soit verrouillé dans un affichage bibliothèque qui rend toute action inactive. Les panneaux latéraux ont disparu, leurs petites flèches de rappel aussi, imposisble d'accéder au mode Développement. Cependant, lorsque lightroom n'est pas actif (si je travaille sur un autre logiciel), l'écran est normal. Quelqu'un a une idée ?   

Hi, I have just upgraded from LR5 to LRClassic. Photos are on a HDD and I copied the LR5.lrcat to my desktop, as it would not open the catalog on my HDD because of permission issues. No problems opening lrcat from desktop after upgrade but no photos or previews nor is there any find missing photos !, can anyone help please?

My Lightroom Classic has been acting strange. For example, the “i” key often stops toggling the Info Overlay, and I have to restart the program to get it working again. Importing has become very slow, and on occasion, Lightroom freezes during import. I've tried importing both directly from my SD card and from files copied to my desktop, but the issue persists. Sometimes, the Develop panel fails to display any photos.   I'm running Lightroom 14.3.1 on a brand-new Apple M4 Pro with 48GB of RAM, macOS Sequoia 15.3.2. The problems have noticeably worsened since updating Lightroom.   Do you know what might be causing this? Also, does Adobe offer any direct support for Lightroom Classic? I wasn’t able to find a phone number or chat option.    

A Question.Is it safe to use the suffix .lrdevplugin or it is always better to package the plug-ins using the suffix .lrpluginSDK manual says: "For convenience, you can use the suffix .lrdevplugin during development, and change the extension to .lrplugin for delivery. The .lrdevplugin suffix is recognized by Lightroom Classic but does not trigger the package behavior in the macOS Finder."No mention of "side effects" but I wonder if anyone has experienced some issues.Question is perhaps silly. 

Hi everyone! I have a question. I’m using the latest versions of Lightroom Classic and Photoshop.In my workflow, I always receive photos in DNG format, which I open in Lightroom. If I need to make any adjustments, I open them in Photoshop directly from Lightroom. The problem is that when I save the file after editing, it gets saved as a TIFF file.Is there any way to change this or fix it?

To start, my Lightroom catalog is pretty big (23k+ photos) -- I know, I should probably start a new one. Everything (catalog files + photos) is stored on my 2TB SSD (sandisk), which is almost entirely full (~100gb remaining). Last night, while editing a photo in LrC, Lightroom closed unexpectedly. At first I thought it was an issue with Lightroom, but then I realized my SSD was no longer recognized by my computer (which is a Mac mini w/ latest update). After taking it out and plugging it back in, assuming I had maybe nudged the connection, it no longer showed up on my computer, nor my other MacBook. Only after plugging it into a windows would it appear needing "repairs." After running the repair, everything seemed fine -- I could see it on my Mac after plugging in, all photos were seemingly there, and LRc opened. I assumed it was a one-off. But then, when I went to continue developing a new photo, the same thing happened -- LrC started spinning, it unexpectedly closed, and my driv

I’m trying to get Lightroom Classic running on a new Mac M4 Pro Mini (Sequoia 15.5) but it won’t open even though it opens and runs fine on my old machine (2017 iMac OS Ventura 13.7).Error message reads "The Lightroom catalog cannot be used because the parent folder “/Users/Robert/Pictures/Lightroom/Arrowmont” does not allow files to be created within it. Please either fix the folder permissions before continuing or choose a different catalog."The catalogs are stored in their default location, in folders within the Pictures folder. From reading various forum threads here’s what I have tried so far:Choosing different catalogs produces the same error. Permissions of the Catalog file is set to Robert (Me), staff, everyone Read and Write. Permissions of the Pictures folder (applied to all enclosed items) is set to Robert (Me), staff, everyone Read and Write  Tried resetting LRC Preferences Tried clean install LRC. Uninstalled using the Uninstaller app in

When I'm away from home I'll import individual images from my camera into LR Mobile and do some first pass editing. These sync to the cloud, and when I get home and bring up LR Classic on my desktop the files show up in the folder in my catalog that was specified for syncing. At this point I'll import every image on my memory card into Classic for further culling/editing. However Classic is pretty inconsistent with matching up my cloud-edited images with the freshly imported raws. For example with my lastest import I brought in about 700 images and had 56 in the cloud. Of those 56, Classic matched up 16 of them with the local files and made them 'Copy 1' versions of the originals. The remaining 40 did not do this. All files are being reported with the same file name + extension (CR3) so I take that mean to nothing has been converted to DNG (which might mess up filename matching). I don't know if it's useful but I had 9 days of shoots and only photos from the last 4 days got proper

Hello!, My Lightroom Classic fails after opening. What happens is the screen goes gray (see attachment). I then must go to Task Manager (Windows 11) to quit the application. This has been a persistent problem for about 8 months now. I have posted here before about this problem, but have never received a resolution.I am running a Dell Computer with 32 GB RAM,  with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti graphics card installed. All graphic drivers are current. If I do not get a resolution to this problem I have no other option bu to terminated my subscription and start using ON1 Photo Raw and DxO PhotoLab8

When I try to syncronise a folder, Syncronise says there are photos to import, but then does not show any.  I think I ran into this once before, but I don't remember how I solved it.  Has anyone else seen this and found the cause?  I am on 14.2 and Windows 10.

"Removing" parts of my image with Generative AI in Lightroom v.14.3.1 work fine most of the time, but sometimes the repaired part is darker than the surrounding area. Is there a technique to avoid that?Thanks in advance1J.L.  

In the last LRC release when you select a group of images for creating  Standard Size preview,  LRC create  previews only for some images at the beginning of the group and a couple located in the end.To create all the previews you need you must repeat the procedure several times and this is quite frustraiting.

Dialog windows created by LrDialogs.presentModalDialog() don't always close fully on exit.   To reproduce on LR 14.2 / Mac OS 15.3.2 / Macbook Pro 16" 2023 Apple M2 Max:   1.

Click OK and observe that the dialog hasn't completely closed:   6. The dialog remains until you restart LR.   * * *   This bug persists after resetting preferences and opening a new catalog. I first noticed it with my Debugging Toolkit,  where it's a serious annoyance. Nine others have reported similar symptoms with creating snapshots starting with
