Using Lightrom Classic v14.3 on Mac OS Sequoia v15.4.1 Steps: 1. Create a custom camera profile using X-Rite Color Checker 2. Install custom camera profile in Lightroom Classic and verify it works as expected and that there is a noticeable difference from standard Adobe Color profile. 3. Use custom camera profile on one or more images in a Lightroom collection 4. Sync the collection to the web 5. In Lightroom Classic make the synced collection public by clicking the Make Public button above thumbnails 6. Open the synced collection in a web browser using the URL provided above thumbnails in Lightroom Classic. 7. Compare color and contrast between Lightroom Classic and web browser display of same photos with custom color profile and note that they are different. 8. Log in to lightroom.adobe.web in another browser and navigate to one of the synced photos that have custom profile name expected to edit it on the web. Note that it has the correct profile name and that displayed
I am a longtime user of both LRC and PS. I am setting up a new laptop and have downloaded the latest versions of both softwares on the new laptop, LRC 14.3 and PS 26.6. LRC will not allow me to set my Photoshop version, it is greyed out in Preferences, external Editing. If I don't run Photoshop, It shows nothing, If I run PS it gives the message "detected that Adobe Photoshop 2025 is running" but will not let me select a version.I have uninstalled, reinstalled, both software in different order. I've tried to install older verions of the software and still not allowing me to set this up. I've read numerious post on similar situations and have tried most of them but still not working.The only other potential issue is my last laptop was a Surface Laptop running the intel chip and the new on is the Surface Laptop 7 running the Snapdragon X 12-core ARM chip, and Windows 11. Adobe says Lightroom and Photoshop work with the ARM chip but not other Adobe soft
Editing folder names is a constant challenge. Is Adobe ever going to address this? It's not a permission issue as it eventually works (sometimes restarting Lr, sometimes waiting a few hours, nothing consistent). It's a huge inconvenience and renaming all the folders in Explorer, relinking them, etc., is a huge waste of time. Is there any actual solution to this yet?
Recently when I try open a raw file in PS from LRC it doesn't open in camera raw. Also, the block where I could check to open a copy or the original is gone. I can still open in camera raw from my HD but it kind of defeats the purpose of LR.Is this somethin new or did I accidently delete something.In my preferences I checked prefer camera raw for supported files.Im using win 10 and it's up to date as are all my adobe files.Cameras are Nikons and I pretty much only shoot in raw.Suggestions would be appreciated.Thank you,...
When creating AI masks using the people mask tool, i can select individual features of a person: hair, clothes, etc. All good. These masks are then called Mask 1, Mask 2.Would it not make more sense to have these masks labelled as Hair, Clothes, Eyebrows, etc?
I have two monitors, and in Develop mode, I keep the Grid visible on the second monitor. When I'm cropping, I like to use the second monitor for the crop preview, since the main monitor shows the grid overlay. It would be convenient if Lightroom would automatically switch from Grid to Loupe view when I start a crop operation, and switch back to the previous view (Grid) once the crop is accepted. I know I can press Shift+E to switch the second monitor to the Loupe View and Shift+G to switch back to the grid view. This is handy, but automatically switching (maybe with an option) would be even better. This would save me the trouble of switching manually every time I want to crop an image.
Current Lightroom Classic. The catalog used on drive D works. Contents 210,000 images, 1.7 GByte.I have saved a new catalog on drive C and started the import from the previously used catalog.At about 25,000 imported images Lightroom aborts with the message unknown error. The PC is powerful (gamer class), the hard disks are fast SSDs. Who has also had this problem and can please help me? Aktuelles Lightroom Classic. Der verwendete Katalog auf Laufwerk D funktioniert. Inhalt 210.000 Bilder, 1,7 GByte. Ich habe einen neuen Katalog auf Laufwerk C abgespeichert und den Import aus dem bislang verwendeten Katalog gestartet.

Wer hatte dieses Problem auch und kann mir bitte helfen?
I'm trying to write a plugin that will take the Geolocation information (city, state, country) and write those as keywords. The plugin is below.

Lightroom Classic, Clicking stack icon not working Version of the app: LRC 13.2Platform and OS version:WIN 10 PROBasic steps to reproduce the problem: use LRC. Long standing problem that's been happening for many, many years.Expected result: stack the images: click on stack icon to open or close the stackand actual result: Clicking the stack to open and close it is not workingStripping out all preferences, actions, customization, preferences to fix this is not a solution. If there was a was to save all of the preferences, actions, customization, preferences and reload it would be an acceptable solution.
I'm using Lightroom Classic 12.4 on macOS 13.4.1 (M1) and iOS 16.5.1. If I take a photo with the Photos app on the iPhone, then enter a caption, then import new photos to Lightroom Classic using a USB cable, then the caption is nowhere to be found in the metadata on the imported file. On the other hand, if I AirDrop the same photo to my Mac, the caption metadata is present (from exiftool): [IFD0] ImageDescription : Photo caption test XZX[XMP-dc] Description : Photo caption test XZX Why is Lightroom dropping the captions on import? This is annoying because it's nice to be able to type captions when I take the photo. If I have to enter them later into Lightroom I might forget what I wanted to write. BTW I do not use Lightroom CC or any Adobe cloud storage. Please do not suggest that as I do not want to pay for their cloud storage - I have enough other cloud storage.
For everyone who gets this error message while exporting photos:"Some export operations were not performed."I found out that I can export normally when I delete my AI mask. Alternatively, if you disable AI lens blur, you can also export without issues.Here's how I fixed my problem:I changed the GPU settings in Lightroom from 'Automatic' to 'Custom'.Then, I checked the option 'Use GPU for export'.Hope this helps!
I recently installed Lightroom Classic on a new iMac and noticed Adobe Creative Cloud installed a lot of files in Utilities folder with the Applications folder. Most (all) of these files are not executables that the end-user runs. Should these be somewhere else like the Library folder?
Hi everyone I was on Photo assignment last weekend shooting concerts Sunday and Monday Monday I opened my Dell 3779 laptop to find out Adobe would not let Lightroom 6 work on my laptop anymore. After about 3 days and 7 1/2 hours on share screen we've kind of thrown in the towel and I went out and purchased a computer that I could afford I really could not afford anything other than this and I'm starting it up now and if anyone can chime in on whether you think this is going to run Lightroom classic? I'm in a real pickle here I'm two days three days behind posting my photos so looking for some advice. Thanks much
In Lightroom Classic, I’ve been working in the same catalog for years, and now it contains over 50 collection folders with more than 50,000 photos. Since the more photos there are, the slower Lightroom gets, I want to create a new catalog just for this year. However, I don't want to download all the old photos to my computer — I want them to remain on the server. The idea is for Lightroom Classic to have an option where, when you click on SYNC, a window pops up asking you to select which collections you want to download to your computer or mobile devices. For example: Select collections you want to download to this catalog Download all photos from all collections to this catalog In other words, pressing SYNC shouldn't automatically start downloading all photos from the server into the catalog, which can take days. The best solution would be: display a list of collection names, each with an icon indicating that the photos have not been do
For some reason some photos are not in my catalog. They were there a few months ago and I did edits and exported. I should have 352 photos, but on the bottom it says 329 of 352 as seen in the following screen shot: The images are in the proper place on my disk. I know exactly which ones are missing since I've exported them a few months ago. There's no filters on in Lightroom either. When I search a file name in Lightroom, nothing shows up. I tried reimporting, but it looks like they're already in the catalog and doesn't let me import. Anyone have any idea what's going on?
Hi,Using LR CC (Windows) for more than a year now, I now faced the problem that LR does not import & copy all of the photos from an external card reader (CF card) to the internal hard disk. For whatever reason, approx. 30 images out of 500 were simply not imported & copied (physically not on the internal HDD, nor in the catalog). All of the images are CR2 files and no error message showed up.However, when I tried to import the missing images while using the function "don't import suspected duplicates" (i.e. only import new files), LR does not show any images. In other words the LR catalog seems to regard the missing images as properly imported files, but they aren't.Also, when deleting images from catalog and HDD and trying to reimport them, LR doesn't recognize these images as new files but continues to treat these images as already imported files (duplicates).Thank you for any help.OlivierMy system : Windows 10, newest LR version, 32 MB Ram, core I7, AMD Radeon R7
Is there any way to filter on wheter a DNG is a Lightroom "Enhanced" DNG (i.e. with Noise Reduction applied) or not? I.e. is that info stored in some metadata that I could filter on? Right now I am simply using the text filter on the file name, to filter out the enhanced images, but this feels like a bit of a workaround (i.e. filtering on "Enhanced" or "Verbessert", since I have Lightroom running in English and German). If there is no facility like this availalable yet, perhaps we should start an idea to make this happen in a future update? 🙂

When I try to view the backup settings in the catalog settings, the backup detail window with the list of existing backups does not work properly. It is not resized correctly, and if I widen the column to view, for example, the path or full name of the file, the columns go haywire and disappear. They are not limited in their movements. The attached video explains it better. The same thing happens when checking the list of files undergoing download or upload during synchronization in the iCloud sync info. I have already tried reinstalling Lightroom Classic, even deleting preferences and with a new catalog, but the interface problem persists. I don’t know how to solve it anymore.
I have never used snapshots before but with the recent inclusion of the Adaptive Color profile are started adding one to gauge the differences against other profiles. The process I followed is make the required changes to a photo and click the + in the Snapshots dropdown. But when I click the snapshot listed under the dropdown, even before making any other changes to the photo, the photo updates with increased exsposure and looks washed out. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
I just upgraded to 14.2 and am already regretting it, just found a new major bug. On M1 MacbookPro, when using the crop tool, it works as expected with both GPU disabled, and when NOT in Soft Proofing mode. As soon as you enter Soft Proofing and use the crop tool, it does not update live like it used to, you have to re-crop by basically cropping "blind" as the display does not update until you let go of the mouse, making it 100% unusable. I was about to downgrade my catalog and lose a bunch of work, but thankfully I realized that it is only broken in Soft Proofing mode now, so at least I can crop when it's off, in 13.x this used to not be this way, crop would work normally in any mode! Please fix this bug in the next update, I really, really hate it when things that used to work just break for no reason! Ok now I just tried to do some masking in Soft Proofing mode, totally broken there too, moving sliders result on 30+ second beach balls to update on screen. Total Fail Adob
Lightroom Classic version 14.4.1; macOS 15.2. Open a catalog with images that have a shutter speed of 0.3 sec or longer; alternatively import such an image. From Library Module activate the the Library Filter, click Metadata and change one of the columns to show the Shutter Speed. Select a value that's 0.3 or more. (I think any value that is not formatted as a fraction will show the bug.) The matching images are displayed. Click one of them. In the Metadata panel the Shutter Speed value is blank, rather than showing the value from the Library Filter.
In Lightroom Classic 14.2, when I try to select the background color (Background Color) in the Develop module, the "Light Gray" option is incorrectly translated into Polish as "Jasnozielony" (which means "Light Green"). The correct translation should be "Jasny Szary" (Light Gray).Best regards, Paweł Słowikwww.slowik.eu
W module Mapa jest zle przetłumaczona opcja w Filtr lokalizacji "Usunięto znacznik" a powinno być "Nie oznaczone"English: In the Map module, there is a mistranslated option in Location filter "Marker removed" and it should be "Not marked"
There seems to be a bug with the "Copy History Step Settings to Before" option in the History panel. For example, in the Develop module, when viewing a photo with no edits, toggling between the Before and After views should show no difference — so far, so good. However, if you select the "Import" step in the History panel and choose "Copy History Step Settings to Before," then toggle between Before and After, you may notice unexpected color differences. Additionally, if you apply "Auto Settings" in the Basic adjustments panel and try to use "Copy History Step Settings to Before" on that step, it simply doesn’t work. Why? I'm using Lightroom Classic 14.2 on Windows 10.
