Lightroom Classic

Hi I'm unable to save anything because I have no hard drive space (and I wasn't able to change the save location in LR/PS). I had thought the default save location was on my pc but everything has been saved to one drive/pictures. So I bought an external hard drive and was planning to move all my files there to make space. From my understanding I need to move my catalog (and photos?) so I have space on my internal harddrive. So far I've copied every file in the lightroom folder except for one of the previews.lrdata as I get the below message.  So that plan didn't work, is there another option like exporting the entire catalog? When I click export catalog, the diaglogue shows e.g. exporting 37 images when there are hundreds of photos, so I'm not sure if it's correct. I'm a bit scared to touch anything at the moment because now LR looks like the below, all the previews are gone and only appears when I click to develop a photo. I accidentally created a new catalog and now it

When I click on the spot removal tool it turns it into black and whiteusing mac and LRC 13.3 

Al actualizar de Lightroom classic 13.5.1 a cualquiera de las versiones 14, no recupera el catálogo ni ninguna fotografía/edición, obligando como única opcion importar fotografias, como si fuera la primera vez que se usa el programa. La única forma de recuperrar la informacion es volver a instalar la versión 13.5.1

It appears as if LrC has stopped syncing.  From these two screenshots you can see a few issues: 1) On LR Web, I have 4845 photos in the Cloud2) On LrC, it shows only 4755 photos Synced (I checked; the missing 90 photos are the most recent photos3) Also on LrC, it says that it is actively syncing 4759 photos.  It has said that for the past two days, no change. - I tried resetting by going to Preferences > Lightroom Sync > Rebuild Sync Data but that did not do anything. It seems to be 'stuck'.  Any suggestions? Kick the side of the Coke Machine?   

A5 will not display in the print setup window.  When you go into preferences it will show A5 but then when you click on OK it doesn't appear in the Print Setup menu 

When using Standard "Import" I can choose to copy the imported files to another drive with "Make a Second Copy to:"  to make an instant backup of files. But I can't find how to turn this on for the "Auto Import" feature (File, Auto Import). This seems crazy, where am I missing where to turn on this feature for "Auto Import"?Why would images transferred with FTP be any less valuable than those imported using the Import button? This also appears true for Tethered Capture. ThanksMarv 

I have a question about LIGHTROOM, it seems that I have a serious problem with the program.4 days ago Lightroom updated itself to the latest version (14.01).Since then, Lightroom cannot see my previously loaded and edited images. Also, strangely, he sees it randomly. There is a folder (which is more than half a year old) and lightroom can see them all.But the images uploaded within 3 months are only partially or rather not at all. Even when opening the library, the picture is quite strange. For some, lightroom can see the name of the folder, but it says that there are 0 images. There are some where Lightr. can see the name and writes the number of pictures, and pictures are displayed in Lightroom, but for example only 36 of the 864 uploaded pictures from my trip are displayed. However, I edited and saved over 200 pictures of them, they should still be there.What could be wrong? Because this is really not good.. I did a photography job 2 weeks ago and fortunately I finished it, but now

I will be away from my home computer for the winter. My images and LR catalogs are on external HDs attached to my 2020 iMac. I will need acess to those files to get any work done. My current Adobe sunscription is the base $9.99/mo plan. As of 15 JAN I will either have to change this to annual to keep it or change to another plan. Right now, I'm not using the cloud service - all my image files are stored locally. I am unclear on how to access them while I'm away. Can I just take the HD with me and then bring it back when i return home? will it sync? or should I change my subscription to get a 1 TB cloud plan? Is it worth the extra money?Thanks.

I just installed Lightroom Classic 2024 on a new Windows 11 laptop. My images are stored on an external drive and appear in LR, however, the OS (C:) folder and subfolders are greyed out; each displaying a question mark. So, for example, I can't access the subfolder Pictures to import images into my Catalog. Thanks for yout help.

I have Dng photos on my Iphone 16 Pro and in exporting them to LrC on my MacBook M Pro they are converted to jpeg's. How can they be inported into LrC and remain as Raw images?  I am using the LR app on my iPhone.Thanks, Adrian

The arrow keys are no longer working. I use them a lot to rasie and lower things like exposure, contrast, and shadows. I am using a Mac with lightroom classic 10.4 release. How do I fix this? TIA

Hi, I fairly new to LRC and still finding my way around.I take photos on a phone and a Canon 80D.  The files are mixed together in a folder, and tagged and titled using Adobe Bridge.I export the files to JPEG in LRC - the All Metadata setting is set, and the files are created successfully. When output JPEG files are viewed in Bridge or other products, the Tags and Title are present.  When viewed through Windows File Manager, these fields are only populated for the output files that originated from a phone based JPG.  All those that had a CR2 file as the input to the LRC export are missing this info both in the standard windows details view or if viewed individually using Properties>Details.If I load one of the errant files into Photoshop and save it with the same filename, all fields are displayed for that file in Windows File Manager.I can't work out if I'm doing something wrong, it's a Windows bug or an LRC bug.Has anyone else come across this issue?

I get this error message right after Lightroom Classic startup:   Lightroom cannot write to the following directorioes.  Until this problem is resolved, syncing from Lightroom may not function correctly. \\Mac\Home\Pictures Show in Finder button has no luck locating it either.   What can I do?   Running LrC 14.1.1 on Mac Studio Ultra M2 with Sequoia 15.1.1   [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.]

I have recently been having issues with the import module and during testing to solve the issue Keywords were being duplicated. Inadvertently (stupidly) I deleted the wrong keywords for around 5000 images. These are only in one catalogue and the images are stored in folders by year (2021, 2022 etc - no month sub folders).  To fix this I am assuming I can restore a previous back-up and get the keywords back and associated with the correct files. But if I do this I will lose all the Edits and Collection folders I have made in the last two weeks. I have a memory issue and cannot remember what exactly I have done in that period. Is there any way to selectively save and restore for a set period of time?

Im Modus "Bibliothek" befindet sich in der Werkzeugleiste unterhalb von "Metadaten" ein Feld "Kommentare" mit dem Inhalt "Kommentare werden hier nicht unterstützt"!Handelt es sich hier um ein grundsätzlich nicht unterstütztes Feld oder gibts Zugriffsmöglichkeiten!Danke im voraus!

 Not sure this is a bug, but I have been unable to update to LrC 14.0.1.

Buenos días.   Después de una sesión de fotos, como siempre, voy a importar las fotos realizadas y el sistema empieza la tarea pero automáticamente se pone en pausa y así se puede pasar horas sin ningún avance.  He resinstalado la aplicación, alta de nuevo catálogo, etc...pero se queda igual...no hay manera. Alguien le ha sucedido algo igual?   Muchas gracias   [moved from bugs to discussions according to the community rules - Mod.]

I could not open my lightroom classic this morning. I hade to choose a catalog. Stupid by me, I opend 13.5. I dont know what to do. In my lightroom map in my computer I only have -12 and -13 mars. How can I find -14?  

Since updating to 14.1.1 a few days ago, my catalogue is not backing up. I also notice that the programme is slow to close.  Windows 11. desktop. 

Mir ist gerade ein extremes Problem aufgefallen.   Ich gehe auf einen Oberordner mit vielen Unterordnern in denen Bilder vorhanden sind, um diesen aus dem Katalog zu entfernen. Es geht mir bei dem Fall darum die Ordner mit Bildern in einem anderen Katalog zu haben und in diesem Katalog nicht.   Also gehe ich auf den Ordner und dann auf entfernen.   Jetzt müsste Lightroom den Oberordner inklusive aller Unterordner und Bilder aus dem Katalog entfernen. Ich bekam aber eine Fehlermeldung, dass bestimmte Ordner nicht in den Papierkorb verschoben werden können. Nur aus diesem Grund fiel mir auf, dass die Ordner nicht nur aus dem Katalog entfernt werden sondern auch in den Papierkorb verschoben werden. Ich habe NICHT auf die Bilder geklickt und bin dort auf entfernen gegangen.   Das problem bestekht in jedem Katalog. Ich habe auf 14.1.1 aktualisiert aber das Problem besteht weiterhin     Lightroom Classic-Version: 14.1.1 [ 202412150940-551fb044 ] Lizenz: Creative

It is my understanding that there are 2 types of chromatic aberration: lateral (transverse)longitudinal (axial) I have read that the LrC Remove Chromatic Aberration option can remove lateral, but not longitudinal. Sometimes if you switch to the Manual tab and carefully by trial and error adjust the Defringe color sliders you can remove some of the longitudinal, but I have found that it often works poorly and will also change similar non-chromatic aberration colors in the photo to monochrome also. Sometimes in photos I get purple fringing, especially things that are against a bright background (sky, etc.).Recently I noticed in the masking tool that there is a Defringe control in the Detail section. I tried it on some purple fringe and it seems to do a good job most of the time. Sometimes the purple fringe is in various places so you must use the brush to mask multiple areas before using Defringe. I then wondered if I was to make a Gradient mask that covered the whole

I try to remove a person from a picture with ai. LRC adds a new person instead. What am I doing wrong.

Lightoom Classic 14.1.1 on Mac Os 15.1.1 Sequoia fails to back up on exit , and none of the answers here work! I have tried everything (not a permissions problem!) This is the second time this has happened and the only way I was able to fix it last time was to create a new catalog and ire-import 75K images. Very annoying! Not a good solution. Backups are very important as too many times i've had to rely on them when a catalog becomes corrupt, which happens far too often. Is there any solution short of exporting/importing and/or creating a whole new catalog? Capture One is becoming more and more appealing.

I'm looking for advice on how to print mirror images from the print module of Lightroom CC. We are making iron-on graphics for T shirts from images with text must be printed as mirror images.
