I have updated my OS (Ubuntu) on my computer without previously deactivating Lightroom 6.When launching it, now I have a Serial Number screen indicating that the maximum number of authorized devices has been reached.Is it possible to reset the associated activation count?Thank you taking into account my request

How to use generative AI in Photoshop to feel in the white gaps? Step-by-step instruction, please. I work in Lightroom and am badly familiar with Photoshop. I have noticed that white ares are not part of the image after I open image for editing in photoshop from lightroom, so i cannot edit them neither can select them. I can, for example, use crop tool in Photoshop to expand image and use generative AI but these gaps left from Lightroom still not filled in. How to fill them?1. I edit RAW photo ln lightroom.2. I use transform without cropping - it makes photo with white gaps3. I hit "edit in Photoshop" - it opens image in PS and white gaps became chessboard4. What next?Thanx a lot

Using current versions, I can't edit NEF images from Lightroom Classic into Photoshop. I have reinstalled both programs and Camera Raw. I'm able to open TIFFs and HEICs with no problem; also,  I can't export NEFs.   [moved from bugs to discussions according to the community rules - Mod.]

I'm running LRC 14.1 with ACR 17.1 on a Mac M1 Ultra and Apple XDR Pro Display A question for the community: When the checkbox "Enable HDR editing by default for HDR photos" is checked in LRC settings (see first image) does this mean that the HDR button in Develop should be automatically pressed for HDR photos (see second image)?  Because this is NOT happening for me... even though I have that option checked, I still have to manually hit that HDR button in Develop for photos with HDR content. And if that's the case... what's the point of that checkbox? Thanks.

I'm using LrC v 13-3. Unfortunately, I didn't set the time and date on my cameras before I did an event. Now, after importing my images, they are not in order, and sorting them by date and time won't matter. Is there a fix to arrange images in a custom order without having to export them individually?

Windows 11, Lightroom Classic V 13.5I have just installed a new 2TB M2 SSD on my MSI motherboard to host my working files (At the same time there was an update to LR 13.4). I have 4 other SSD’s used for back-ups etc. At the same time Creative cloud updated Lightroom Classic to v13.4. All programs are on the (separate) C: drive. Working files are all in a single OneDrive folder on the 😧 drive with a full back-up on E:. On installation of the SSD I had to re-allocate the drive letters to make sure the new drive was the 😧 drive. (Lightroom 3)I needed to import some images and discovered that Lightroom does not recognise the new drive in the import dialogue. The main catalogue sees it on the files structure and library (lightroom 1) and I can access all the folders and sub-folders, but when I come to import and click on the drive letter no folders or sub folders appear (lightroom 2). They appear normally on all the other drives. The folders all appear in the back-up E: driv

Lightroom Version Number 14.0.1 Operating SystemmacOS 15 SequoiaAfter years on a PC I bought a MacBook Pro. All my images are on an external drive which is where want to keep them.I have no images on the Mac and have never imported anything. How do I point L.R. to the image folder on the external,or is there another way?Thank you,,Richard

To date, there have been over a dozen reports of the following: When the user hovers the mouse over a preset in the Presets panel, the preset is correctly previewed in both the Navigator and Loupe (main) views. But when the user clicks on the preset to apply it, it doesn't get applied to the photo, and moving the mouse away restores the photo's previous appearance. For most of these reports, resetting preferences fixes the problem.     These previous reports will be merged here to make it easier for users with this problem to find the authoritative thread.

Hi guys, So I'm trying to import around 10GB of photos to LRC from an SSD, which I had just transfer from another HDD, I get this error from the imports, Iv'e tried a few times, once from the HDD, once from the SSD and I get the same error.I am using a Macbook and already authorized LRC for full dusk accsses. Do anybody know what might be the problem? and how to solve it? Thanks in advance,Stav.

So I am very confused with the migration of my photos from one drive to another and making sure that all of the edits I have done remain available in lightroom. 1. Before I get to in details into my confusion, what is the best way to migrate everything from A drive to B drive?   2. How do you make sure that the catalog I was using on A drive goes to B drive?   3. After migration, would all of the folders and edits reflect?Thanks

In the wake of the most recent LrC update, the healing tools in the Develop mode stopped working. It is simply not working at all. (I test the same tool in Camera Raw, and it worked fine.) I tried an LrC uninstall and reinstall, but that made no difference. How do I fix this?

So I'm trying to organize my files and I tried to rename my LRCAT files with something that makes sense for me but now the images don't come up. I tried to find an answer here in the community but maybe my word search was off because I couldn't find soemthing. Anyone have ideas?

I am running LRC 14.01 from the Creative Cloud. I just changed to shooting RAW as I finally saw the advantages for my use. I did the import from a computer card in a card reader. The RAW files were not found in the import, only the jpegs from previous days.. I am not shooting RAW+JPG, I only shoot RAW now. I have read the other suggestions, and I will try downloading the files first then uploading from my computer.

Creating a slideshow hangs while "Preparing preview".  It does not always hang at the same place.  Optimizing the catalog changes where it hangs, but does not resolve the problem.  There are 171 items in the collection.  A few of them are video, but it doesn't hang an a video file.  I cannot see anything different about the photo where it hangs than the one before it or the one after.  Before it was hanging on slide 66.  After optimizing it hangs on slide 105.   Lightroom Classic 12.3, Windows 11

Having not done any settings changes, the display of profile thumbnails in the Develop tab of LR CC (using latest version, but this started before the upgrade to the latest version) is messed up.   If I chose grid I used to get 2 thumbnail previews per row with each thumbnail correctly sized to fit. Now the thumbnails are a bit larger so the second one is partially off the screen. If I click on it there is no slider to move back to the move back to the one on the lift except to click on it and apply the profile. If I widen the column I get three thumbnails per row but the third one is partially off the screen resulting in the same condition as in bullet 1 (see first attached screen shot). If I pick large instead of Grid I get stranger results. Some thumbnails are too large to display the full image and in some cases the thumbnails are very small and one per row (see second and third attached screen shots).   Using MAC OS Seq

Lightroom 14.0.1 issue:When Selecting import, the source media loading wheel is excrutiating slow. It took 10 minutes to load half a gigabite. It has now taken 5 minutes and still has not loaded a 41MB folder of 10 screenshots. Does anybody have a solution? Trying to chat with adobe support chat during an outage isn't connecting me with anybody. Thank you!

I just upgraded to Lightroom Classic 14.1.  I have a small catalog of 610 photos, which I have been using with prior versions, with no issue.  When simply trying to view in the Library module, I keep on getting alerts that Lightroom is non-responsive.  If I wait 10-15 seconds it becomes responsive again and I can scroll through another 3-5 photos before becoming non-responsive.  This is new since the upgrade.  Is anyone else experiencing this same issue?  I am using Windows  11.  Closing Lightroom and reopening had no effect in improving the issue.

For the last few days I have been unable to import images and it's saying Destination not writable.  I have updated my Mac 27inch to latest version and also updated Lightroom cc.  I have not changed any thing.  Can someone please help?. 

Me pongo en contacto con el foro porque tengo el siguiente problema. Tengo contratado el plan fotográfico que incluye  Adobe Lightroom y Adobe Photoshop y, además, cuenta con 20 GB de almacenamiento en la nube.

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,beim Öffnen von Lightroom 6 auf meinem Windows Laptop wurde ich letztens aufgefordert, die Seriennummer bzw. den Prodcut-Key in die Maske einzutragen. Nachdem ich das getan und die Eingabe bestätigt habe, kam die Anzeige von Adobe, dass die Seriennummer gesperrt wurde und dass dieses Produkt nicht lizenziert werden kann (siehe Screenshot). Ich habe das Programm im Mai 2017 erworben und nutze es seit dem auf meinem Window 10 Laptop. Ich würde mich freuen, wenn Sie mir die Lizenz wieder freischlaten könnten, da ich für den Erwerb des Programms fast 100 EUR gezahlt haben. Vielen Dank!Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Lightroom Classic 14.0.1 macOS Sonoma 14.7.1   I know I'm a dot release behind. I hinted at this bug in one of my other threads but I have a very obvious repeat.   Lightroom Classic sometimes does not download all the photos from a camera. In this case R5.   3 days of shooting. Typically under 5500 images per day.   First two days, I'm pretty sure (but now not convinced) Lightroom downloaded everything. (I"m hoping so because I erased the card after each day).   On the 3rd day, only 1400 images downloaded out of almost 6000 images. Because the magnitude was so different, I noticed. But could have imagined a scenario where I felt confident and repeated the erase process given the apparent success of Day 1 and Day 2.    Lucky there was no Day 4. I may not have noticed.    Bottom line is that there is a subtle irregular bug where Lightroom Classic concludes the download process without showing a failure message that says you started downloading

Since the last update, Lightroom classic is using all my memory all of the time even when idle.  Even when that is the only thing open, it almost freezes my system.  I can't get anything done in Lightroom, Please help!! I am on Windows 10 pro, 16GB of Ram, Core I7 with 4 cores, 8 logical processors.  It worked fine in the past.  What has changed?  It seems to be a bug where it is hung-up on something, or stuck in some processing loop and costantly flickers and feezes for several seconds over and over.  I have deleted lightroom all off the preferences, twice.  When I reinstall and restore my last backup, the probems remain.  My computer and all drivers are up to date.  I have ruled out any GPU or video card issues.  Any suggestions?   

I have searched these forums yet I have not found a solution to this issue. There are similar ones but not this one.  I am running a MacBook Pro M3 with 36gb of ram, 500gb internal SSD with 300gb of free space and a 4tb external SSD. The OS is Sequoia 15.1 and Lightroom Classic 14.1. The LRC catalog is on the internal SSD.  I am having a memory leak in Lightroom Classic ONLY when it is syncing. If I pause syncing I can use Lightroom for days however, once I restart syncing, I can watch the memory usage climb over a 15 minute time period until Lightroom freezes, the swap file and ram are maxed out and the MacOS banner pops up to force close Lightroom. I have followed the procedure to remove and reinstall Lightroom twice, (the one that requires restarting the Mac after every step), but it did not help. I’ve tried with a new catalog and I even removed every image from the sync list to see if that would help. Nothing stops the memory leak during syncing. &nbsp

LRC update to 14.0.1 this morning and since hasn't been usable.  It did complete its catalog update, however while using it the CPU is constantly busy and the RAM usage keeps climbing.  I've tried restarting my computer as well and still it just climbs and runs slowly.  I had it build standard previews (took hours - much longer than expected) hoping it would speed up after those were in place.However, even after a reboot, if I open lightroom to a folder that has all previews already built with the latest version the issues persists.It starts at about 1.2GB of RAM.  Over the next several minutes of just sitting there doing nothing, it rises at about 100MB / Sec until it uses all the RAM on my computer.Those no tasks shown as running - address lookup and face detection are paused. Lightroom Classic version: 14.0.1 [ 202410161356-30922cfc ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: enOperating system: Windows 10 - Business EditionVersion: 10.0.19045Application archi
