Lightroom Classic

As the subject says, I'm curious if there's any new plugins or developments about an internal-to-Lightroom field or drop down that allows one to create a project list and or a to do list per folder or catalog (as opposed to individual image metadata notes.) I'm thinking of something like PostNotes 2 for Premiere.

Ya hice le procedimiento de borrar el archivo con. lock pero cuano lo abro vuelve a salir no me permite abrir el catalogo.

recent eye surgery has left me unable to read the small print interface in LR classic.  I would like to make the interface only larger for my poor eyesight, but keep the zoom options for the image as usual.  Is this possible?  Mac OS sonoma 14.6.1.  Up to date Photoshop 2025.   Lightroom classic v14.0.1  

My SSD fried on my desktop and I had to replace with a new SSD. After reinstalling Windows 10 and Lightroom Classic, I downloaded my Lightroom catalog from an online backup service (I do not have a lightroom backup file only the lcat file - I know, stupid on my part) I can open Lightroom and create a new catalog, but it freezes when I try to open the catalog in question. I've tried moving the lock file to the bin, uninstalling and reinstalling Lightroom, but it will not open and freezes the starting process of opening Lightroom. I did notice in the Lightroom folder where the catalog resides the lock file reappears and flashes. Can anyone suggest something I haven't seen in this forum yet? Thanks so much for your help. 

After a highly confusing and unwanted upgrade to v14 I uninstalled LR Classic (bad idea?) . I thought I could reinstall back to v13 but can only see v8.0 available . Any help on rescuing this would be most appreciated.

Hi there at first i thought this might be an issue specific to my KVM setup, using single-GPU passthrough. However, Photoshop works wonderfully and also Lightroom CC does not suffer from any issues. Lightroom Classic v11 however does not let me move placed masks. I cannot rotate/resize/... any of them (e.g. radial or linear ones. The controls at first are shown, but glitch away as soon as i try to use them:I am currently running on macOS Big Sur v11.6.1 with a Radeon RX 570 8 GB graphicscard.The issue is gone when downgrading to the previous release but this is no long-term solution. Looking at /Users/milan/Library/Logs/NGL/NGLClient_LightroomClassic111.0.log, while messing around with those masks, no log is generated. May i increase the loglevel somehow? Regards 🙂

This is only happening in the last few days.  I noticed that my GPU was running at 100%, or nearly, and the computer became nearly unusable.  I typically have 3 editing programs open (photoshop, lightroom, PTGui), and a youtube video running, which runs smoothly.  The video became unwatchably choppy, and even the mouse didnt move smoothly across the screen. Task Manager shows that "Desktop Window Manager" is using ~60% GPU, and "Client Server Runtime Process" is using the remaining 35-40%, though they do fluctuate somewhat.  After some trial and error, some restarts and whatnot, it kept coming back.  The only way to stop it is to close Lightroom Classic. I upgraded to the most recent version of LRC, didn't help.  Also using latest Nvidia driver. EVGA GTX 1070 SC

When ever I try to sync edits on photos or copy and paste setting the white balance never copys over. 

It used to be that when I imported photos to LR Classic, using an Import Preset, the destination folder was visible on the lower right side of the screen in the import dialog. Not any more (for a couple of versions now I'd say).Now all I see is Macintosh HD and the users folder. Maybe it's important to note that I'm importing into a dropbox folder that on recent mac os versions is in /Library. It used to be that the Destination folder tree was untwirled to the actual destination folder and I could select another sub-folder for example. Any idea how to make it show up again?  

Heya! Having problems in both Lr & LrC. Every time I apply Lens Blur it says: "some Ai settings need be recomputed", I select Update and it tells me Something went wrong. Doint this on both Lr & LrC. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you xo

Hello I am a photgrapher and i have shifted to lightroom from an other photo editor app a few days ago. I need some lightroom presets for photo editing. I motely need Aesthetic prestes. If any body have, plz do share. Thanks in advance.

I have had a problem appear in the past week that is very annoying! I shoot say 50 images (nikon z8), import them from an SD card to my 2021 M1 Macbook Pro and between half and 3/4 of the images do not have an EXIF data. "Metadata Status" is "Has been changed" and I only have the pixel dimensions of the shot in the EXIF.  If I delete all the images with no EXIF data and import again from the card, some have the EXIF data, some don't. I updated to 14.0.1 and this problem persists. This problem appeared out of the blue. I have attached the the metadata for two images that were imported one after the other below.

BonjourJe suis sur LR Classic V11.5 sous MacOS (10.15.7).Depuis quelques jours je n'ai plus les outils de synchronisation avec LR Mobile (Cloud) que ce soit sur la barre d'outil ou dans les paramétrages des collections. Avez-vous déja eu ce problème ? Je n'ai rien trouvé en ligne 😞Mon compte LR mobile est bien actif  et valide.merci d'avance 

A few days ago, I updated Lightroom Classic on my PC. Today when I logged in, all my Lightroom connections are gone. When I reinstalled the previous version, it made no difference. Everything is a big fat 0.

I posted another question about lightroom not restarting after closing it unless I end the task from Task manager, even though it has been closed already. And also, not being able to import anything.I seem to have narrowed it down some in the fact that this only happens when I try to start an import, then cancel the import, then close lightroom. After doing that, then I have the issue of not being able to start lightroom again unless I delete the task from task manager. I had recently made a new install of lightroom after doing dome upgrades to the computer and this problem has been there ever since. I have re-installed lightroom multiple times and I have reinstalled windows 4 times and this still happens. All my files import into my laptop with no problem so I don't believe I have corrupted files. Even trying to import images I have had on my hard drive into a new catalog does not work. I really need some help, I have several thousand images to go through and I can't do anyt

He pasado un catálogo de fotos de Photosoph Elements a Ligthroom Classic y no se como localizar las fotos mediante los nombres de las etiquetas que ya tienen.

Help.  Upgraded to the Lightroom v13 and now everytime I try to edit anything the bar's take off in a positive and I can control it.  Using Windows11.  Having tried fixing the graphics card & that does not seem to work.  Suggestions?

Ok.I have a 2019 MacBook Pro. I9 processor. 32gb ram, 2tb internal, and an updated graphics card.Running the latest version of LR classic. The issue spans across previous versions as well.My workflow:I import images to an external drive (we have 40+tb of external and internal drive space, I prefer to use the ultra fast M.2 drives we have with speed up to 7300😳 extremely fast)After import, we use culling software, in this case Aftershoot, for culling to get our numbers down to a manageable amount.. aftershoot will also add an xmp file along with each image, giving it a rating based on our previously selected requirements.I’ll take said catalog from there and import the images into a gallery. Depending on what type of shoot, we have different preset collections (wedding, engagement, etc. )With smaller collections within I.e. getting ready, ceremony, details,first looks, and so on.We only use 4 star or higher selected images based on our previously culling software pics.From there

I have a Canon R5 with the latest firmware. Recently I can no longer connect it to the tether function of the latest Lightroom Classic version. Until now it has always worked and suddenly it no longer works. Do you have a solution to the problem?   Ich habe eine Canon R5 mit neuster Firmware. Neuerdings kann Ich sie nicht mehr mit der Tetherfunktion der neusten Lightroom Classic Version verbinden. Bis anhin hat es immer funktioniert und plötzlich geht es nicht mehr. Hast du mir die Lösung des Problems?    

Hi, everybody. I have a problem with Lightroom Classic (version: 14.0) that suddenly appeared yesterday. I was looking at images in a collection of DNG files in the development module. Suddenly the images started to become brighter. This happened automatically in the filmreel below, with the adjustment of brightness values moving from image to image. It also happened when I clicked on a particular file which had not been changed yet: the large image in the middle of the screen became brighter a second after selecting the image, and it remained brighter after selecting another one. The brightness values in the development module do not change however. I do not know if I accidentally hit anything on the keyboard. The history of the DNG files does not show any command - apart from the import as first step.  Only DNG files which I took with my mobile phone (Samsung S24) are affected by the automatic adjustment. When I click on older RAW files which I took with my F

Usually when selecting an image in develop module, it takes a second until the auto tone button is enabled. With the latest version of Lightroom Classic that no longer happens all the time. In fact, the button gets enabled less often than it does. This is Lr Classic 14.0.1 on Mac OS Sequoia. 

(How) can I create a smart collection containing only the photos that have AI features included? I am having some issues with AI-features non updating (AI remove and AI masks). So gathering the impacted photos in a smart collection would help.Thanks.

The update to Adobe Lightroom 14.0.0 has made it almost impossible for me to work effectively. When making adjustments to edited photos in the Develop module, the image loads first, followed by the sharpness! It’s painful to watch. It feels like image loading now happens in three stages:A preview that isn’t very useful.The sharpness of the image.The application of adjustments such as exposure, shadows, whites, blacks, etc., in relation to the previous image. With all due respect, this is no way to work. When editing wedding photos, for example, I might have 800 images to finalize. After just 100, my eyes are exhausted. The sharpness shouldn’t appear after the image itself! And the colors should load immediately as well…I have to wait an extra second after opening an image to get the correct sharpness and colors. You will cause a visual defect in people on a global scale. Please fix this. By the way, version 14 performs significantly worse than version 13.

New update is crashing and causing blue screens.  The pop-up for scanning for compatibility always says my computer is fine.  I have no problem with any other Adobe product.  Only LRC
