Lightroom Classic

When I delete at bunch of photos, my preview file increases in size ??I was expecting it to get a bit lower.

Hello, I have a problem. I purchased Photoshop and Lightroom, logged into my Creative Cloud Desktop, and in my apps, I see these purchased applications only as "trial." When I click the "Try" button, it takes me back to the plan selection, where I have to enter my credit card details again. However, when I try to do this, a window pops up saying that I already own this plan. But I still can't install the applications because there is no "Install" option, only "Try."

I searched through here and found somebody with the same issue and it looked like they were able to resolve it, but nothing is working for me.  I always shoot raw and have plenty of storage on my mac.  Denoise had been working fine, but today when I try it the preview just stays blank.  I am able to run Super Resolution fine, but nothing with Denoise.  I tried to follow the steps on here deleting the gpu txt file but that didn't help.  I also ran a system update and still nothing.  I don't know what else to try so would really appreciate any help.

Hey guys, I am hoping you can help me. I am having syncing issues with Lightroom, my photos keep saying they are syncing and it will not give me the green checkmark that syncing is complete. There are 21 photos and I do not know which photos I am having an issue with. I do use multiple devices, computer, tablet, and I phone to edit photos. The version of Lightroom I am using is: Adobe Lightroom Classic, version 14.1.1 release. I have included a photo of the issues, top right you can see syncing is still occuring, but will not complete. Anyone know how to fix this? Thank you in advance 

Hi all i am having a mare of a day my orignal external drive with my photos on has broke and the my back up photo external drive has just stopped working and now not recognised by my iMac. All my photo's are shoot raw. I always back up my LrC lightroom so have an up to date back up can I still work on them, export them etc. 

All of thevideos in my Lightroom Catalog will not play w    hen I double-click on them.  Mac OS 13.6.7 , 3 GHz 10-Core Intel Xeon Wi get either a photo without video controls, or a black screen. If I show the videos in the finder, I am able to open and play them with Quicktime player. What can I do? In addition, there are  videos and live photos from my iPhone which will not import Here is the error message:There is a problem with the video file (10)    /Users/kathryn/Desktop/iPhone to LR /IMG_3129.MOV    /Users/kathryn/Desktop/iPhone to LR /IMG_6152.mov    /Users/kathryn/Desktop/iPhone to LR /IMG_4323.mov    /Users/kathryn/Desktop/iPhone to LR /IMG_1152.mov    /Users/kathryn/Desktop/iPhone to LR /IMG_6187.mov    /Users/kathryn/Desktop/iPhone to LR /IMG_6186.mov    /Users/kathryn/Desktop/iPhone to LR /IMG_4321.mov    /Users/kathryn/Desktop/iPhone to LR /IMG_3131.

Hi guys,Is there a recent, articulate tutorial on The Color Range Tool in Masks? Thanks a lot.

Hallo, ich habe hier ein seltsames Problem: In meiner Schnellsammlung befinden sich 5 Bilder, die es gar nicht gibt. Vier haben eine Vorschau, eines ist nur grau. Ich vermute sie alle aus einer Session (erkennbar an den vier Vorschauen). Nur:- sie haben weder Namen noch Exif-Daten- im Finder oder in der Bilbliothek anzeigen lassen (Kontextmenü) führt zu nichts- Löschen geht nicht- Vorschauen löschen, entfernen nützt nix- Tastencode zum Entfernen aus der Schnellsammlung macht auch nix Ich vermute mal, diese Bilder sind tatsächlich gelöscht, aber in der Datenbank sind sie irgendwie als Relikte hängengeblieben. Katalog optimieren habe ich natürlich auch schon probiert. Hat jemand eine Idee, wie ich die Bilder loswerde???Liebe Grüße, Heiko

Hi there,My lightroom (version: CC 2015.12 [ 1125239 ] ) has been really terrible for the past month or two. It's extremely slow to respond, lags and freezes ALL the time.  I have 32g of RAM on my computer, so I know that's definitely not the issue. It used to be SO fastIt doesn't seem like there are any updates or anything so I am not sure what's going on? it's take my FOREVER to edit and export photos because of this. I had a Adobe rep remotely try to fix it and whatever they did lasted until I closed the program and restarted it.  Thoughts?

Absolutely reproducible, always occurs: I create a mask, use the spot color picker and lightroom crashes. I deactivated the use of the graphics card and reorganized the catalog (occurs with all catalogs). The face search is also closed. The system test of Lightroom after the test shows no problems. Use the full Adobe Suite, no problem with any other program. Has only been occurring for a few months, even the new version (14.2)  has not helped.So Lightroom is no longer usable for me. Terrible. Enclosed pleas find the crash report.

When merging a panorama in LrC the preview weindow gives a perfect rendition of what I would expect and like the output to be. However, when the merge is completed, the image is completely warped and not the same height as the preview either. It is as if the entire output has been squashed. This is now happening to a lot of my panoramas since updating to the 13.2 update, where the results after merging look squashed, warped, or incorrect. The preview window often displays a correct image.  Attached are screenshots of the preview vs merged output. The preview has straight horizon lines and produces a nice image. The actual merged output after completing the stitching is squashed, wider, and shorter. It has also cropped out the bottom most part of the image which appears correct in previews. Anyone encountered this before or know the fix?  I am running MacOS Monterey 16GB M1 Chip Macbook Pro if relevant. 

I'm having a similar issue with Lightroom classic. It's been working fine for years, but now when I open it is unresponsive and just hangs. I can't follow your recommendation for I am unable to access preferences. I've tried opening different catalogues, I've tried using different external hardrive sources for the images, I've uninstalled and reinstalled Lightroom. I am just unable to use it. It opens, then hangs. I use task manager to force quit, have restarted the computer numerous times, you name it. 

The question I hope to have answered is how I can log events leading up to LR freezing. With the freeze I am not presented a crash report option and I'm sure I'll need the log before I turn to Adobe. Adobe has addressed this but I don't think it applies to Windows 11. I could not find any of the utility programs the article mentioned. My problem is Lightroom seems to load ok but within less than a minute will freeze. It does not matter what I have done before the freeze. IE. select an image, switch to develop mode, go into preferences, scroll the folder list, etc. Whatever I do the program will freeze. When I click anywhere again the LR window goes transparent white. When I click to close LR the Windows "Program is not responding" dialogue comes up. Fortunately LR will close promptly and Windows OS does not seem to be affected. I've spent the last four days scouring Adobe forums, Adobe help pages and the Internet looking for solutions and I've tried probably a dozen. Changing

Using most recent release 12.4 of LrC on a Windows 11 PC  I am adding keyword tags but now find that the recently added keyword does not appear in the autocomplete list and not in the Keyword suggestions table.  The keyword does appear in the keyword set 'Recent Keywords'  The keyword is also in the Keyword list.  Note that I possibly have over a thousand keywords and have to nest them otherwise I cannot scroll to the bottom.

Does anyone notice a Red tint is added after Denoise at the 50 default setting? Version 14.1.1 on Windows 10 Home.  

I’ve come across something weird in LrC. When I merge 3 images (raw format) with HDR (using Control-h), the result has one strange area that’s darker than the rest (see the darker orange swaths in the attached images). None of the original images have any deviation in that area.If I redo the merge, the strange area is there again, but is shaped differently and not always in the exact area. I’ve tried merging other images and gotten the weird results on those as well, so It’s not because of the images themselves.I restarted my Mac (OS 14.7.1), which made no difference. I had the latest version of LrC (14.1.2) when this began to happen, so I uninstalled it and reverted to the previous version (14.1.1), but the same thing happened, so I can’t blame it on the newer version.I have quite a few merges to do and have no idea what to try next. Any ideas of what’s going on?Thanks!

Hi Everyone,  It's been a long time now since I learned Lr (2012), and even longer since I learnes Ps (2008), so please forgive my outdated understanding of things. I was taught an Lr workflow based on archival data protection through the photo program at RIT, which has perhaps overburdened my workflow with redundancies, etc. I have a catalog of roughly 400,000 images, at about 17TB. I have an individual 2TB external drive for about every or every other year since 2015. The last two are SSDs, and I saw a dramatic improvement in speed, though I understand that others feel that that shouldn't be true... Maybe my external HDDs are slower RPM than what I should have. Regardless, I have wanted to streamline/integrate everything for years. I would love a RAID (NAS?) system, i.e., 32+TB of storage with spread redundancy that automatically backs things up, all in one place, arranged such that I can easily replace a drive if/when it fails, etc. I would love to ditch my 20+ Seagat

Hello, I need the direct download links (offline installers) for the new 2020 releases of Lightroom classic Could you please help me?   {Moved from Lightroom Cloud to Lightroom Classic Forum by Moderator} 

Every time I open LRC, and after one click on a photo I get a greyed out screen. I then need to to do an Ctrl+Alt+Delete to close the program. When I attempt to reopen the software, the same thing happens. I can no longer use LRC. I am running Windows 11, on a Dell Desktop with 32GB of RAM  This problem has persisted for months. I am now looking to replace this with other software.

The first time I used Lightroom Classic 14.2 (Mac), AI Denoise failed and kept failing after my first couple of uses. It appears to be processing normally with the doodad spinning for the predicted amounmt of time, but no new DNG is created and the Develop window is empty with no image selected and the previous adjustment I made to the image are all lost. I restarted the program to try to clear the issue, but that didn't help. I'm working with Nikon Raw (NEF) images.    Because I shoot a lot of indoor school sports, I'm going to need to try reverting to the previous version, but being about a third of the way through 1,300+ images that I have to select and submit by tomorrow morning, I'm not going to have the time to try that tonight.   [moved from bugs to discussions according to the community rules - Mod.]

The last few times I've imported photos I am finding them to already be adjusted when I look at them in the develop module. The sliders are the giveaway - they are all moved. I've indicated "none" in the develop settings when importing so not sure what the issue is. I can't even hit "reset all" on the individual images to clear the sliders so I basically have to manually zero out all the sliders. HELP! I've been using LR Classic CC for several years and never had this issue.(Moved from Lightroom CC Cloud Based Forum to Lightroom Classic Forum by Moderator)(Changed title/text to reflect LR Classic, Mod)

Hi guys,I always view, adjust and crop my images in D against a white background by pressing L twice.Works great for me.But when I want to move to a next or previous frame ... arrows fail. More so when I am in full screen. Is there a reason - and a remedy? That would save me the time from going back to a regular screen to click on previous or next frames.It's been dogging me for years but was always too lazy to deal with it; or too pressed for time. Thanks a lot.
