Lightroom Classic

I am printing multiple pages of images (essentially Contact Sheets but without an names or photo info, etc.)  I was trying to use the Identity Plate as the title for each group of images. However, the font size of my titles seems to be strictly dependent on the size of the box for the Identity Plate - not the size indicated in the Identity Plate options box where you enter your specific text and pick the font. It has been difficult for me to get multiple sheets of different groups of images to have the same title size becase the titles are of different lengths so the box is always of a different length and therefore size.  I can - by eye - adjust each sheet when printing them individually, but there is no precision to this method. It appears that the Font Size selection box really has no effect on the end result on the screen and when printed. My expected result is that when I select the same font and font size in the Identity Plate options between differe

I am new to lightroom and coming from Photomator. While photomator is more limited it is a pretty good lightroom competitor. one thing i miss from it going to lightroom is that in photomator you could have endless "layers" for each adjustment or mask. So you could put a preset. then make a new layer and then adjust sliders all over again.More importantly, if you used auto adjustments (which lightroom also has), you could then adjust the strength or effect/opacity of said auto adjustments. is there no way to do that in lightroom?i use auto very often as a starting point in lightroom. sometimes it gets it 90-100% right. sometimes it has the "right idea" but its WAYY too strong like overexposed, whites pushed too much. I want to reduce whatever lightroom did automatically 50% for example by just pulling a slider, but i cant seem to figure out a way except looking at every single slider in develop and by eye try to reduce by 50%. that is an extremely slow workflow

I have a problem with output from the JeffreyFriedl plugin Listview. I get the error message Win32 API error 2 ("The system cannot find the file specified.") when calling ShellExecuteExW from AgWorkspace.shellExecute. I reistalled the plugin (resulting in the loss of my prescription) but the error remains.  This same error message was mentioned 10 years ago, but the solution then given does not work in this case.   [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.

Yesterday when I opened my LR - none of my photos were showing.  You can see that there is 800 photos, but they are not visible.  Someone suggested that I re install my previous catalog.  Since yesterday morning - right through the night it keeps on saying that the Catalog is opening.  I cannot access LR at all.  I even shut down my computer - still nothing 

I have a catalog with photos from recent shoot. I imported  around half of it into LR. Then I wanted to add 2 more photos so I dragged them into library module and imported. Now I only see these 2 photos. There is absolutely no way to show all the photos I imported from this shoot. I checked every possible folder, tried to use "filter folders" and ITS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND. I am going crazy here. Why LR is doing this. PLEASE ADOBE I see people report this issue for years, yet there is no solution!

new ro lrcwhen transferring photos from disc or computer i am getting multiple photosi do have do not show duplicate photos checkedhow do i prevent this?thanks

 I have a bug in my installation (LrC 14.1.1 and a MacMini M1 with MacOs Sonoma). The bug is that the Plug-ins for editing are all grayed out BUT if I delete the Helper file before starting LrC the Plug-Ins are not grayed out!   [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.]

Hi, recently updated Lighttroom Classic to 14.01Basic Panel now doesn't show the AUTO or PROFILE tabs - they are 'greyed out'I have gone back a  version and then updated again - no joy!!!I dare say (hope) this is a simple fix. Anyhow, help.....................

I have a set of photos that are being synced to the cloud from Lightroom Classic, but I don’t know why. They don’t belong to any Collections that are marked to sync, yet they have the sync arrows on them, and I can see them on lightroom.adobe.com. Is there a way to discover what could be causing them to sync? I don’t want to sync all my photos; only the ones I explicitly select.

I have just subscribed and installed Lightroom Classic and the version was 14.1. However, the school I am going to attend requires version 13.5.Please advise how to change to the older version, if possible.

Hello there,I'm looking for some help with LRC. All of a sudden, it won't open. I click on it, it loads for a bit - then nothing. I can also not uninstall it! I have tried the following:- restarting the computer multiple times- installing it again- uninstalling (it won't)- uninstalling it by uninstalling Adobe Cloud first (still won't work)- uninstalling with the Adobe Clean up program as per tutorial (will uninstall everything BUT Lightroom Classic)Please help! The regular Lightroom programm works, but I need Lightroom Classic for my work.I'm using Windows 10.

Hi After updating and downloading and and gerally changing things around LR will not re-import ALL my photographs? I have some 30k worth and its stuck on 1500 with it just saying 'import files at their location' never had problems before. Any ideas?

The main folder contains all the photos, but all the subfolders have question marks showing 0 photos (but they all should have several photos on each). The functions "find the missing folder" or "remove folder" don't work for each subfolder. The hard drive contains the same folders. Please advise 

Hi, does anyone know where I could  find support from Adobe for a bug in Lightroom Classic? After the last update, it has a problem when I try to create a catalog at Importing pictures. The "create new catalog button" just doesn't work.

When I'm in develop module editing RAW photos, I switch to full screen with F key, then I click with left mouse into the image which zooms the image to the selected zoom ratio, the result is a zoomed view that's slightly blurry. If I then grab the image with my left mouse and move around, it immediately sharpens up. If I then left click again the image zooms out and is again slightly blurry. If exit out of full screen the image immediately sharpens up.If I choose to zoom with the spacebar key or the Z key, everything works correctly. Zoomed in picture is sharp.The problem occurs only when in full screen view.The problem occurs both with 50% and 100% zoom.This is repeatable on every RAW photo.The problem is present with GPU accelleration both on or off.The problem doesn't occur with JPG images.The problem doesn't occur in Library view in full screen. I'm using Windows 11 24H2 and Lightroom Classic 14.1.1. CPU Intel 14700K, GPU Nvidia RTX4090.

My image previes folder for Lightroom was nearing one TB in size so taking up too much hard drive space, so I moved it to an external drive and now lightroom seems to know where it is as I can still see all of my previews with ratings. I have destroyed more lightroom catalogs in my life than I care to mention so I want to ask here before I trust this change. Does Lightroom automatically know where the image previews folder is and is it okay to have on an external drive? I've already deleted the original folder from the computer hard drive where all of my apps are. You would think that Lightroom would complain if it coudn't find the image preview folder. Can someone with more experience give me input on this please. How can I tell if Lightroom is actaully 'hooked' to the image preview folder in its new location and not just using some sort of 'memory' from the old folder. Lightroom takes knowledge to do things like this and as you can tell, it's 'seat of the pants' is how I've been gtet

Lr 13.2 on my M1 MacBook Pro does not recognize the adjustments made to the same file on the Mac Studio M1 Desktop using the same Lr version, even though the XMP file from the Studio Desktop is downloaded to the MBP and sits right underneath the raw photo in the MBP finder. The raw photo had already been imported to the MBP at time of capture when there was no XMP associated with it. I was under the impression that once an XMP is associated with a raw file which is in the Lr catalog, Lr should pick-up the XMP data and make the requisite adjustments to the photo, but it does not. Is this a bug or a feature, and if the latter, how does one get edits that have been done in the desktop version of Lr recognized in the laptop version of Lr? It would seem perhaps one needs to get the XMP into the catalog as well, but there appears to be no way of doing this. I need this functionality in order to print to the Epson P5300 from my laptop.   [moved from bugs to discussions according to the c

I have been using lightoom classic exclusively for years. Recently, Ive learned about the lightroom community. Is this feature available in lightroom classic?  I can't find it.  Thanks.......... Rob

LRC takes about a minute to start up / open which I click on the LRC icon. It used to start very quickly but suddenly just slowed down around the time I reached 100,000 images.  Once it is running it responds normally.  I have around 105,000 images catalogued. The catalogue is set to optimize on exit. I have no plugins enabled except for Topaz Photo AI.  System info:Lightroom Classic version: 13.0.2 [ 202311290958-8ff975ea ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: enOperating system: Windows 11 - Home Premium EditionVersion: 11.0.22621Application architecture: x64System architecture: x64Logical processor count: 20Processor speed: 2.1GHzSqLite Version: 3.36.0CPU Utilisation: 0.0%Built-in memory: 8035.9 MBDedicated GPU memory used by Lightroom: 23.5MB / 1981.1MB (1%)Real memory available to Lightroom: 8035.9 MBReal memory used by Lightroom: 1318.1 MB (16.4%)Virtual memory used by Lightroom: 5322.6 MBGDI objects count: 781USER objects count: 3072Process handles count:

Hello!I've run into a problem with Light Room Classic after I used PhotoSweeper to identify duplicates in my photos collection. I didn't follow through with the PhotoSweeper scan in that I didn't delete any duplicate files that it had identified. I did notice the next day, however, that many of my photos had the dreaded exclamation mark! I have been through the "Would you like to locate it?" process many times and cannot locate the original. The path that I'm presented with (to locate the original file) gets truncated. I'm not sure that makes sense, but the search process doesn't give me access to the full pathway, in fact, if I use Finder to locate the photo file by entering the full path, it returns nothing. As if the pathway is corrupted or non existent? Anyone have any ideas? The PhotoSweeper helps says that once I've "rediscovered" the correct address of one photo, then all the remaining lost files will also be found. I'm pretty sure the issue is operator error, but I just can't f

Hallo,bei mir fehlt im Druckmodul links die Schaltfläche "Druckeinstellungen". Wie kann ich die hinzufügen? GrußRalf

I have been working on cleaning up my LrC catalog and working to make sure I have everything backed up. During this process, I discovered several photos had been inadvertently moved to a folder nearby the one I intended it to go in. However, when I attempt to move those photos to the appropriate folder, LrC completely bogs down, working for over 12 hours with the "operation in progress" bar never budging. What is really confusing is that soemtimes one or several photos will immediately go into their new folder, no muss, no fuss. I have tried quitting LrC, uninstalling & reintalling LrC, renaming the photos, renaming the folders, restarting the computer. Nothing seems to move this along.I am working on a Mac Studio with Apple M1 Max chip running OS Sequioa 15.1.1; and I am using the most recent version of LrC.  I've been a Lightroom user for many years and never run into this issue previously.Does anyone have any ideas on resolving this?

Hi everyone,I've imported a batch of photos into my Lightroom Classic CC catalog, but I've noticed that flags don't seem to be working anymore. In particular, I use eject and pick. The keyboard shortcut "x" pops up saying the photo is rejected, but doesn't appear so in the toolbar, and choosing Photo>Delete Rejected Photos does not delete rejected photos. It appears the only way to reject right now, for me at least is to right click a photo in grid view, and select reject photo from there.Bit of a pain as I cycle through quickly and decide if I'm keeping or not.Is anyone else noticing this, or maybe even know why?Thanks in advance!-Tom
