Lightroom Classic

I've been having an issue where my desoised, DNG, images don't appear in my catalogs after returning to lightroom. For example: I denoise and create a number of new DNG images while editing, they all appear in the catalog where I created them, I shut lightroom down for the day, and when I return the DNG files are no longer in the catalog. I have to go to "all photographs" and pull them into the catalog manually.  For troubleshooting's sake I have ensured there are no filters on and none of these catalogs are "smart." I also don't "stack" the images. After pulling them images back into the catalog the number of images changes, which is an additional idicator that the images left the catalog altogether.  While this isn't a huge deal, it does negatively affect workflow and is a time consuming process for somthing that should be automatic. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Bonjour,J'importe mes photos via les cartes sd de mes appareils photo vers mon NAS et LRC V13-5. Le dossier de mon NAS n'a jamais changé depuis que j'utilise LR. J'importe parfois de mon NAS vers LRC (cataloguage).LRC m'a créé 3 dossiers différents dans mon catalogue pour toutes mes photos (voir capture ci-jointe). Les 30609 photos sont réparties en 3 dossiers :-  photo(DISKSTATION)(Z:) : 852 photos- \\Diskstation\photo\ : 260 photos- DISKSTATION\photo : 29497 photosCette situation ne m'empêche pas de retrouver par mon clés mes photos mais, puis-je agréger ces 3 dossiers en un seul ? Comment ? Je pensais pouvoir déplacer des fichier d'un dossier à l'autre et supprimer les dossiers vidées mais ça ne semble pas possible.Merci pour vos réponses.Cordialement.Pilgrim

Hi all,Adobe has announced, that LRclassic is now quicker to work with.Up to a point I can confirm this, but here's the thing.I am editing a couple of hundred files with very similar material and have created 1:1 peviews beforehand.Now when I scroll through them in the develop module, the files open but change appearance after about 4 seconds. They don't do this in library, but only in develop. Very annoying. What's the use of creating 1:1 previews, if I have to wait each time I open them while editing. In this way it is very tiring to compare pics that are very similar as i have to wait for one to open, asess it, then switch to the next one, wait for that to open, then switch back to the former, look at it again and only then can i compare it to the next one properly.Can anybody shed a light on this?cheersZLRclassic 14.1.1Macos sequoia 15.2

Wie kann man doppelte Fotos entfernen? 

I have 3000+ bird photos that I "tagged" for searching prior to using LrC. Since I was not using any sophisticated photo processing tool like LrC, I had no way of easily adding metadata like keywords. I devised a file naming scheme that served my searching needs; it included a species name (a standard 4-letter abbreviation) and some aspects of the photo, e.g., gender, plumage, etc.  Now that I've moved to LrC, I am using keywords for the same searching needs. However, I still have those 3000+ photos imported into LrC and they have no keywords at all. As former professional programming I thought it would be nice to be able to write a script or macro or program that would:iterate through a folder containing all those photosget the file name of the photoparse the file name to determine the species and all aspects for the photoopen the photo (or whatever is needed to support the next step)add appropriate keywords to the photoclose the file (if needed) I've discovered that Ad

I have been happily using Adobe Creative Cloud and Lightroom Classsic for years to support my journalism sideline and photography endeavours.My main editing machine is a powerful Windows desktop gaming PC running Windows 10, Intel 13700K and AMD 6800XT graphics using a variety of very fast drives.  I have had no problems for years but I've just fired up Lightroom Classic and had a warning that it needs to update to continue syncing with the cloud. That takes me to another page which then says my Lightroom is up to date. To be honest I don't really care about the syncing with the cloud so I thought little of it and started editing some pics I need for my next article.Lightroom classic began crashing repeatedly to desktop and just closing down when I use the healing brush. I then checked which version I am on and it's the v12.3 release. I thought it would be worth upgrading so I went to Adobe Creative Cloud which shows v14 is the latest available. It says I can install that but it's

Lightroom wont open after trying to launch corrupt catalog. Restarted my computer and tried a couple more times. Now it gets stuck wont open and a black bar appears on computer screen saying Lightroom-Opening Catalog: Lightroom Catalog.zip How do I fix this?

Hallo!Am 27.11.24 bin ich von PC auf den Mac umgezogen. (möglicher Grund für den folgenden Fehler?)Vor 2 Wochen fiel mir dann auf, dass alle KI-Bearbeitungen meiner gesamten Bibliothek fehlen. Ich kann jedes Bild einzeln in "Maskierungen" und "Entfernen" manuell aktualisieren. Dann ist auch alles so, wie ich es bearbeitet habe. Aber wenn ich LR neu starte ist wieder alles weg. Wenn ich einen Teil meiner Fotos markiere und "KI-Einstellungen aktualisieren" drücke, sieht das mit dem Bearbearbeitungsbalken zwar kurz super aus, funktioniert aber leider gar nicht - es werden die manuellen Aktualisierungen sogar wieder entfernt, alles auf Anfang. Wenn ich alle (also über 1000) Fotos markieren und ihn aktualisieren lasse, dann gibt es am Ende auch eine Fehlermeldung, dass der Vorgang nicht abgeschlossen werden konnte.Aktuellstes Update ist installiert.Was kann ich tun? Da das manuelle Aktualisieren den gewollten Stand kurz zurückbringt, habe ich erst mal die Hoffnung, dass sich dies dauer

When I export book to PDF I get two PDFs, one of the cover and the other is the rest of the book. How do I get only one PDF of the entire book? 

Hello, Running Lightroom Classic 14.0.1 on Windows 10 Family Build 19045.5011. In developement mode when I a subject mask I have a window that pop up for few seconds and disappears. Same behaviour with background. Sky is working as expected. Any hint ? Regards   [moved from bugs to discussions according to the community rules - Mod.]

I currently have a 2019 i7 16gb MacBook pro. I need to upgrade as this is getting on a bit now and running denoise AI is taking roughly 7 mins on a 85mb raw image. ( 42mp Sony a7R iii )  I'm torn between getting another MacBook pro, Air  or Mac mini with a M1 / M2 chip & 16gb ram. Would this be a big time improvement to run denoise AI ? I would potentially be open to windows options too if the money is right.  Any information would be greatfully received.  Many thanks  

Hello brains trust, Re Windows 11. Lightroom Classic. I upgraded (I assume form v13-3) to v13-5.1 and when i opened it, it said i had the following error: 'Local Sync database damaged' and told me how to fix it..... well i did as instructed - https://helpx.adobe.com/au/lightroom-classic/kb/local-sync-database.html?trackingid=W6K8JK3M&mv=in-product  - and when i re opened lightroom classic it opened a new catalogue. It also is now syncing my icloud (iphone photos), which it has never done before, and it will take forever, its about half way and has been going for a few hours now. All the 'collections' i had seem to be synced, and when i click on an image in the collections and then click 'go to folder in library' (from one of the collection photos) it takes me to a Folder called 'Other Lightroom Device' and sub folder 'Imported Photos'. Did not have this folder listed on previous version, and all of the collection photos came from the previous library. All original photo

Bonjour,J'ai un Fujifilm X-PRO2 qui me permet de réaliser un bracketing d'ISO, c'est à dire décliner une image avec une valeur ISO en dessous et au dessus. Ce qui me donne 3 images raw, une correctement exposée, une sous-exposée et une sur-exposée. Lorsque j'importe ces images sur LR Classic (j'ai la dernière version), elles apparaissent normalement pendant quelques secondes puis, les images sur-ex et sous-ex changent d'aspects et se retrouvent avec la même exposition que celle qui est correctement exposé à la base. Cela me donne 3 images prisent avec des ISOS différents qui ont exactement la même exposition ce qui n'a aucun interêt. Sur le finder, elles apparaissent pourtant correctement. Lorsque je les importe sur Capture One par exemple je n'ai pas ce problème.Je précise que je n'ai pas de pré-réglage à l'importation sur Lightroom, il s'agit des fichiers bruts.

Just upgraded today to the newest version of LR Classic and I notice that along with the Previews.lrdata file there is now a Helper.lrdata file. Anyone know what this file does? Is it important to keep it backed up? Or will it just re-create if deleted like the Previews.lrdata file?

BonjourPhotographe pro je suis utilisateur d'adobe lightroom 5 version CD avec cle d'enregistrement.Je dois renouveler mon materiel informatique et passer sur window11.lightroom 5 est'il compatible avec window 11Si non,  en cas de migration vers la nouvelle version de lightroom compatible window 11 pourrais je lire les anciens fichiers lightroom 5 catalog ainsi que les fichiers Lightroom 5 Catalog Previews.lrdata de maniere à recuperer l'integralité de mes travaux réalisés depuis plus de 10 année.Si oui comment proceder ?Merci pour votre reponse

Je voulais savoir comment je pourrais faire pour réussir à déplacer des photos déjà importées dans LRCC dans des dossiers classés par date comme je réussi à le faire lorsque j'importe des photos depuis ma carte SD.  Depuis ma carte SD je choisi de classer par date toutes mes photos dans le catalogue puis de les ranger par types/occasion dans des collections, mais maintenant je voudrais que les photos qui étaient sur le cloud, sur LR sur mon iPad, puissent être rangées de cette façon.. Le problème est que j'ai réussi à envoyer ces photos du cloud à mon catalogue, mais elles sont toutes dans le même dossier et je n'ai aucun autre moyens que de tout classer manuellement. C'est pour moi un problème qui sera assez récurrent puisque lorsque je voyage je prend uniquement mon iPad, et importe les photos dessus, mais je voudrais en retrouvant mon ordianteur pouvoir envoyer les photos dans mon catalogue LR, par date, comme si j'avais fait l'importation depuis ma carte SD.&nbs

Hello everyone, I have a problem with print sizes. I would like to printa 20x30cm format on a A4 sheet but i aways end up with a width of 20,5cm.I have an Epson P900, i must be missing something...

After much frustration with my C: drive space being eaten up like a hungry Packman, I found out there was about 95GB worth of crash dump files in AppData/Locallow/Adobe/CRlogs/dumps, and not the Roaming folder where there are also CRlogs/dump files - that's empty.   So can anyone tell me why two places? I am rather curious. At least I now know why my disk space was disappearing!

Hi all, Just recently, I went to open Lightroom Classic on mac and it would continually fail to open. I tried to update, and this did not work. I tried opening older versions of Lightroom Classic and this did not work either. I was advised to uninstall, and then try reinstalling the app to no avail. I can still open Photoshop and Lightroom but lightroom classic is not working. My adobe creative cloud desktop is up to date. I have tried troubleshooting with the steps listed on the Adobe site,  and I am not sure what else to do. Is there something I am missing? Thanks

My Lr Catalog...Previews.lrdata is 380.55 GB and with the associated files (see attached image) it is 385.42 GB and it is clogging my MAC up. I cannot get anything done and need to know how ( or who can do it) to move it to an external hard drive. With all the other files on the hard drive I am left with to little room to work on my computer. I currently have 4 external hard drives connected.

its a long story but here it goes. on dec 11 I bought a new macbook pro, went into apple store we moved everything from my old macbook pro 13 in to this new one with a lighting cord. I used the new computer that evening to edit images in lightroom classic. i use external harddrives to store my raw images, the catalog i edited them in and the .jpgs I export when im finished editing. I used LRC the following thursday and friday. Monday I tried to open LRC and the icon bounced in the task bar and didnt do anything. I checked the force quit to see if it was running in the background, it wasnt. I made sure i was running on the latest operating software on my macbook. I am running on sequoia 15.2. I then checked the creative cloud and updated LRC. Tried to open it again and it wouldnt open. So i restarted my computer. tried to open it again and it did nothing again. so i uninstalled and reinstalled, again nothing. i restarted computer, still nothing. I contact apple support, thehy say call a

Hi,   I had an app specific password setup for my gmail that allowed me to send pictures but also had my address book auto fill email addresses. It recently stopped working and though I have been able to get a new password and send emails again, the address book is still not syncing.   Does anyone know how to fix?   thanks   [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.]

Lightroom Classic has been arbitrarily changing an images capture date, shifting it by a few hours consistently. It only does this (from what I have gathered) to photos that are synced and accessible in the cloud (i.e. Lightroom Cloud integration via collections), and have edits made to them.  I have been struggling with this on a daily basis. I edit a photo. Suddenly the photo becomes out of order. I realize the capture date's metadata shifts forward by about 4 or 5 hours. I physically change the capture time to be accurate. From here, the new date will either stick (until I edit the photo again), or it will just immediately revert back to the inaccurate date/time, prompting me to replicate the same process until it sticks. Furthermore, once the catalog reads these files with the corrected date/time, it does not always get read this way via the Cloud-based Lightroom. So to fix this, I then have to delete these files from the cloud and reupload them. I have done this mul
