Lightroom Classic

Hello,I recently upgraded to a Canon R6 Mark II from a Canon 5D Mark III. While using the Canon 5D Mark III, I was shooting in RAW2 format, and my custom presets worked perfectly. However, after switching to the R6 Mark II, the colors do not match when I apply the same presets to RAW3 files. Despite adjusting settings in Lightroom Classic (LrC), the colors remain off and appear faded when I move from the LrC preview to the Develop module.Interestingly, both the Mac Preview app and the Lightroom Classic preview show the correct colors, but once I enter the Develop module, the colors look washed out.I’ve tried the following:Resetting Camera Raw CacheAdjusting profiles in the Develop module (including Adobe Color, Adobe Standard, and Camera Matching)Testing with the Soft Proofing toolNone of these solutions have resolved the issue, and the colors in LrC are still not accurate in the Develop module compared to what I see in the Mac Preview app or on the camera screen.Has anyone encountered

Since a while I have problems with Lightroom CC crashing my whole computer, resetting it.   My computer in brief: Ryzen 7950X3D, Asus ROG Strix B650E-F, 64 GB DDR5-6000, MSI RTX 4090, 1000 W Phanteks AMP, Windows 11. All drivers including chipset drivers updated.   Symptoms: It happens semi-randomly, but seems tied to when Lightroom CC does some heavy lifting, such as generating previews, exporting images or just scrolling between images in library or development modules. The screen goes blank and the computer reboots.   I am quite certain this is not heat or current related. The reasons for that:* It only happens when using Lightroom, not when playing demanding games such as MSFS2020.* It has happened while I was monitoring temps. CPU temp was not high and the GPU barely active.* Once I was looking at the task manager while it happened. It was not entirely sudden. I was generating previews when I saw CPU use drop sharply. Then, after a few seconds, the reboot came. Had

Bonjour,   J'ai un problème sur Lightroom Classic. Je suis photographe sportif, j'ai toujours importé mes photos directement dans Lightroom Classic en utilisant un câble USB-C Thunderbolt 3 reliant mon Mac à mon Canon R10. Cependant, depuis plusieurs jours Lightroom Classic ne détecte plus mon appareil photo pour l'importation. Pourtant mon Mac le détecte bien, je dois donc importer mes photos depuis l'app Photos d'Apple pour ensuite les importer dans Lightroom Classic.   C'est assez problématique pour moi, car dans mon métier, j'ai besoin d'importer et de traiter très rapidement mes photos et ce bug me fait perdre pas mal de temps dans mon process.Pour information mon Mac à la dernière mise à jour Sequoia 15.3, Lightroom Classic également est à jour 14.1.1 et mon appareil Canon R10 est lui aussi à jour au niveau du micrologiciel.   Quelle est la manipulation à faire pour pouvoir à nouveau importer directement mes photos sur Lightroom Classic via mon cable USB-C ?  

Lightroom Classic v.11.4.1; Windows 11 v.21H2 Hi, I’m a longtime lightroom user with no noticeable problem. I recently updated to a new computer (windows 11, I9 12900k, RTX 3060Ti, 32GB DDR5).And I’ve got some trouble with my “personal catalogue”, is one unique catalogue where I import all my personal pictures from other folders, most of which a classified by date with a few exceptions like smartphones folders, friends’ weddings… For some unknown reason a lot of these folders are listed in my Lightroom files explorer as empty (0 pictures) and some don’t show the correct amount of files. From want I recall, when installing the new computer few months ago, I copied the files on the new hard drive (went from HDD to SSD), opened my Lightroom Catalogue and recreated the link to the correct main personal folder containing every other.And did not notice anything weird at the time, I guess I would have… Now I have those “empty” folders with no images showing and t

I had a hdd crash and let professionals restore it. They managed to save 80% of the images. But now i really need to remove those 20% of just blank out images with the black exclamation mark on it. They are sitting there like dark sad reminders of all the photos i've lost. Is there a way to bulk remove all damaged images?

Hey, I've been a happy LR user since the dawn of time, and now I'm faced with a problem I can't seem to solve.And I can't remember exactly when it started.   By way of lemma:Mac Studio M2 Sequoia;LrC latest version ;Eizo Coloredge;i1display.   Screen freshly factory reset, calibration freshly performed, LrC freshly uninstalled then reinstalled, GPU acceleration freshly removed in LrC.   My problem - summed up in the title of this message - lies in an obvious difference in rendering between the image in LR's “development” module and its export seen in “Preview” mac application. When this export is viewed in an app that manages colors “correctly” (qView or nomacs), I have no problem.Still, it drives me crazy. Especially as I'm not sure that the image, if I share it, will be seen correctly. Of course, if I take a screenshot of the image in the “development” module and look at the resulting PNG in “Preview” app : all's well... I poked around a bit - a lot - but nothing concl

I am trying to better understand the function of Lightroom Catalog back-ups and how many I can delete in order to free up storage space.  These files are labeled "Lightroom Catalog-2-v12.zip" (the more recent) or "Lightroomn Catalog-2.Ircat.zip" (the older ones).   Is there any reason to keep more than the most recent catalog back-up?  If so, how many should I keep and/or how long should I keep them?   Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks,   Scott   {Moved from Lightroom Cloud to Lightroom Classic Forum by Moderator}       

I have an old Spyder4 Pro puck and software installed on Windows 10, with the color profile loaded, and I noticed on both of my notebooks since the last fall Windows 10 update that the color profile keeps loading and unloading itself every 30 sec to 1 minute. I contacted Datacolor support and someone said this has to do with Windows 10 USB, bluetooth, and power management constantly resetting the LUT table in the video card.Does anyone else have the same problem, or found a solution?I was wondering if the newer Spyder5 software would help, so I placed an order for a new kit.

Hey today I tried to open my LRC but first it told me that my catalog couldn't open because it was already active somewhere else. When opening the app everything was gone. After reading the Adobe Support about this they told me to delete the lrcat.lock. So I did this and now I can't open my LRC at all. I only get a black banner on my desktop saying Lightroom Catalog opening but nothing else happens and the application itself won't open either. Does anybode maybe know what the problem could be or how I could fix this?

Hello everyone, I'm new to the community so I hope I'm doing things right. I am presenting this issue that I can't solve. I purchased the photography plan, and during the first import of a RAW file into Lightroom, while in the development phase, colored lines like the ones you see in the photo appear, and then the program crashes. This happens with all RAW files. Below are the tests I have conducted with the same error: -Different SD cards -clean installation of GPU drivers -different SD card reader -changed HDMI cables -tried different GPU ports -tried HDMI output from the motherboard -clean installation of Windows   -tests on other PCs with the same file and no issues found.   Do you have any advice, or should I just throw the PC in the trash?   Thank you so much

I am tried multiple times to take advantage of the "Compare View" function.  I have watched Julieanne's videos on this.     But my version just doesn't seem to work as the tutorials and manual and instructions indicate. When I select a group of say 4 images to "Compare," when I "Pick" one, they are ALL selected.  Julieanne's video seems to indicate that ONLY the "Select" image would get a flag as being "picked" not all of the group.   I have re-started, updated, etc., yet this behavior does not change.   Am I doing something wrong?

hey i have the task to organise thousands of photos into different topics (with overlapping themes so some photos could end up in more than one topic)they are all already perfectly organised by year and month into more than 20 yearly  folders, each with 12 monthly subfolders of originals,  plus one folder for a lightroom catalog of the years photos with extensive keywording, tagged locations and faces and of course a lot of develop settings.my ideal idea is to have all this with all the settings and tweaks in one big catalogue. has anybody any suggested workflows to get his? Experiences? Or mistakes to avoid?

I'm trying to create a pano for the first time in Lightroom CC and it just freezes on "creating preview" Doesn't even start on the status bar.Nothing happens. I've tried with different sets of 3 photos and get the same result. Tried different settings in Panorama options and get the same freeze.The images are all DNG files shot at 105mm with my canon 5D MkIIIThank You

Alright I need some help, my adobe lightroom Classic is giving me a headache. Recently my light room stopped letting me import photos into it, when i go through the process of importing it brings up the screen but no photos. I can try and drag and drop them into it, but then it wont even do anything from there. It gives me no error messages nothing just a blank import screen. Any idea of what the problem could possibly be... I am on a Mac Book air.Message was edited by: Sahil Chawla

Hallo zusammen, bisher habe ich LR nur über das iphone verwendet. Nun habe ich mir ein Macbook zugelegt und bin etwas überfordert. Zum einem zum Abo:Derzeit zahle ich 21,99 EUR im Jahr, 40 GB Lightroom Foto & Video Editor (im Adobe Account steht Lrc, Lr mobile und web enthalten). Dann gibt es noch das LR Abo für 14,49 im Monat mit 1 TB... und halt noch das Foto Abo (mit PS wollte ich mich später mal beschäftigen).... Ich wundere mich halt hier über den großen Preisunterschied? man hat mehr speicher aber sonst scheint alles gleich zu sein?Ich ziehe mir seitdem täglich yt Videos rein um besonders den Import und die Bibliothek besser zu verstehen.Da ich auch ziemlich neu im Gebiet Macbook/Laptop habe ich auch nicht grade das beste technische Hintergrundwissen (wo soll ich was am besten speichern...) Ich habe Lrc installiert und auch die sync durchgeführt. Es wird mir nun ein Katalog angezeigt mit den Bildern dich ich bisher in LR über das iphone bearbeitet hat

Esse problema começou a uns dias, sem motivos aparentes. Utilizo o Lightroom em um notebook Acer Nitro 5 AN515 - 45 com processador AMD Ryzen 7 5800H with Radeon Graphics, mais um placa gráfica dedicada da Nvidia 1650 e com 16gb de ram.   O programa simplesmente começou a travar, as vezes reinicia do nada, ou fica piscando. Ele está travando até para passar de foto, e todas as funções causam lentidão no programa, mesmo quando ele é a única jánela em execução. Já reinstalei todos os programdas da Adobe, assim como os drives, também realizei o teste de ram, e ainda assim o problema persiste.  Já tentei redefinir as preferencias do Lr assim como desativar a GPU para testar o desempenho, removi uma das mémorias ram, para deixar o notebook funcionando com uma de cada vez, fiz downgrade nas versões do Lr e ainda assim o problema persiste.    Os demais programas continuam funcionando normalmente, incluindo o Ps     Versão do Lightroom Classic: 13.0 [ 2023092

When printing from my Canon EOS through the printer I use on location—Canon TS3750i—I get clear, crisp photos for my clients.When I use LRc on my PC, and go through its print set-up - I get poor quality, almost like pinhead dots making up the photos. Settings all set for quality etc, both in the printer and in LRC Print.I have sat through several youtube vids, and done all they have asked but the result is the same. Advise, please? 

No sé si alguien puede ayudarme. He cambiado de ordenador y tenía en mi anterior equipo instalado LR6. Como puedo instalarlo ahora en mi equipo actual? 

When I use Lightroom to move a folder to another disc, it will never say it's finished.  I can see that all files have been moved, but this dialog progress bar will not complete.  When I try and quit Lightroom, I get this warning "Moving folder in progress"Then, when I do quit, and re-open Lightroom, it doesn't know where that folder lives (even though it shows it on the other volume)Any ideas????

I have masking tools. when i try to use them i cant due to when i got to masking, click on Brush there is no effect button for me to click on. some please help me. i dont know why i cant just contact customer support and talk to a real person about this issue and get it solved. but no we have to post here and hope someone gives the right adive in a decent amount of time. 

Hi there,   The prompt to perminantly delete files on a Mac with Lightroom located on an NTFS volume should be removed. I have full READ/WRITE access to the NTFS volume and up until now when files were deleted form Lighroom they were moved to the trash in the nomral fasion. It is just a file system afterall. Please fix this bug. Thanks   [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.]

I've always been in the habit of importing my iphone photos to my Lightroom Classic catalog and then clearing my phone for more space, and it used to work very efficiently. Since upgrading to an M3 Macbook Pro, I can't get the import to happen anymore. It'll recognize the images on the device, let me configure the import, and then when I start it, it just sits there thinking and imports nothing. I'm sure it's a permissions issue, but I don't know how to resolve it. Can anyone offer any guidance? Thanks!

In LrC 14.1.1, I go to Library > Metadata > Customize > Customize Metadata Default Panel, and am able to check the Preserve File Name box. So the next time I went to import new images, upon import, I went to Apply During Import > Metadata > New OR Edit Presets - and either way, the Preserve File Name doesn't come up as an option. What am I missing here? Is there a different way to be sure the original filename is accessible on renamed images (whether done during import, edits, or export)?  In case it's helpful, I import IMG_1234.cr2 images, and export them as ABC-1.jpg, ABC-2.jpg. I want to be able to access the IMG_1234 filename when viewing the exported ABC-1.jpg image. (Attaching screenshots of the Default Panel and Presets for reference.) Thanks all!

I am using a Nikon Z8 shooting RAW and then download images to Lightroom Classis. For some unknown reason when I click on AI Denoise the Enhance panel shows Loading Enhance data, it loads then the Enhance Preview panel- denoise amount slider does not appear. I have uninstalled then re installed lightroom classic but still not happening as it was a few weeks ago.Certainly appreciate some guidance on this please.
