Lightroom Classic

Hello,   A few days ago, I noticed that all edit history in my catalog is gone. It looks like this is somewhat related to the upgrade to LrC 14. My last v13 catalog has the history still intact. Just after updating to v.14 on doing the backup the integrity check failed and LrC told me that the catalog must be repaired. The repaired catalog seems to work, but it is missing the entire edit history of all photos. Also the file size has shrunk from 9.5 to 5.6 GB. I now have two catalog versions with edit history: one from before the upgrade to v.14 and one after. I have tried restoring both of them in LrC 14.0.1. This initially seems to work, but when doing the backup, the integrity check always fails. LrC then repairs the catalog and the next integrity check fails again. After the second repair the catalog size shrinks to 5.6 GB and the edit history is lost again.   I now don't know how to proceed without a) losing my entire edit history and b) losing the edits I have made since

I am having problems importing photos in to lightroom from my computer's hard drive, since I upgraded to the latest version of lightroom last night. I use a Windows PC.When I go to the import feature, and select any folder which has photos in (including locations I have previously imported from), the photos do not appear and the space where they should appear remains grey and blank. I have checked and the photos are definitely in that location!Therefore I am unable to import any new photos - has anyone else had this problem or know how to help??

Using latest Lightroom classic version with Mac iOS 15.2. Print module sends print state and tells printer to load roll paper adapter if I use the Epson P900 driver. I don't have a roll paper adapter anyway. Printer operates normally using the Apple AirPrint driver. Is there something I can do to correct. I have uninstalled the printer and Epson driver and reinstalled multiple times to no avail. Also have shut down and rebooted my iMac several times as well. Please help.    [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.]

With using LrC v14.0.1 I'm not able to export a presentation in a video format. At 10% export it got stuck and will not continue.Tried to reboot, optimize catalog, select different pictures although no succes.Worked like a charm on previous versions, anything to do with latest update? kind regards,Nick 

MacOS 15.1.1 Apple chip M2 MAXLRC 14.0.1Installed Mac secruity patch/update 15.1.1. That's about all I can track it down to.  I don't recall this happening prior to 15.1.1Restarted mac multiple times.removed and reisntalled LRCI can take any photo and crop to any aspect ratio provided it's the same orintation(if it was shot in Landscape I can crop in Landscape. when I try to crop from Landscape to Portrait or the other way around it the poto area goes dark and says no photo is selected.Near As I can tell this only happens when changing from portrait to landscape or landscape to portrait. I stated the trouble shooting steps above so we can bypass all the suggestions of said trouble shooting steps. Just another delay in my day. Thank you Adobe

Symptom: I can locate an image in Library/Grid view.   I'm sure the file is there (I recently ran Find All Missing Photos, and only  30 of 114K images were missing).  I go to Develop mode.  The image displays.  I change a slider (I picked Shadows), and image disappears, replaced by message  "No photo selected".   BackgroundI'm on MacOS 15.1, LRC 14.0.1/Cam Raw 17.0Catalog on external 2TB SSD; images on external 6TB HDDI recently moved disk drives around.  But ran Find Missing to make sure LRC was seeing the drive.  It is.  Only 30 missing of 114K.   I recently built Smart Previews for all images.  Took several runs as there was a power failure.  But catalog has passed the validity check and optimization consistently.  No errors reported.   I have made sure that LRC has Files and Folders access in MacOS 15.1 (24B83).  I tried granting Full Disk Access but this did no good. I'm at the end

Question re: Lightroom Classic Rel. 14.0.1.  I have photos which were previously edited by LrC 14.0.1 but are not in the current catalog.  I want to Import these photos into LrC and have LrC recognize that XMP files for these photos already exist.  How do get LrC to use the existing XRC files for edits?  Thanks.  Vic.

One and only one image in my catalog looks bizarre after applying denoise under the Detail menu. A number of changes were applied (exposure, cropping, etc. — standard changes). Some were applied to a masked area as opposed to the whole image. When the denoise option is applied, the enhanced image is badly wrong. I cannot even describe it properly. I am including a sample image. Work is being done on a 2023 M2 Macbook Pro running MacOS 15.1 (Sequoia), 96 GB RAM. If I try similar changes to another image, I have no trouble, so I think I must have toggled on something for this image, but I have no idea what. 

For the last month or two Ive been having a memory leak issue with Lightroom Classic with zero help from Adobe or even acknowledgement of the problem. Its not just myself with this issue as I have seen various threads here from others experiencing the same thing with varying results for resolution. Unfortunately Ive still not found a solution for a fix and its just becoming harder and harder to get any kind of bulk work done.   Im a full time photographer with Lightroom being part of my daily workflow, with it grinding to a halt every few hours im bashing my head against a wall for any kind of solution. Even editing on my Ipad which is painful but somehow faster than doing it on my Macbook pro M1 Max, this just shouldnt be the case.    In a previous thread about this issue, someone was saying they had a few photos stuck syncing and once they located and fixed them the memory leak somehow cleared up. Ive got 7 images stuck but cant find a way to locate the ones givi

A couple of months ago I bought a Canon PRO300 printer which I absolutely love. I also chose to use the Canon Professional Print and Layout software for making the prints. I think its a great piece of software which gets great results for me. I would edit my image in Photoshop and then launch the Canon PPL software from there using the installed plugin. It worked flawlessly. Recently however I became converted to using Lightroom to edit my images but I can't launch the Canon PPL from Lightroom. The plugin is installed but when I launch PPL, I get a status message stating "Opening Canon Professional Print & Layout" but the message disappears after a few seconds and PPL does not load.Any ideas?  Thanks. Windows 10. Lightroom 12.1 Canon PPL 1.3.6

I'm trying to get a handle on relative vs perpetual rendering intents and want to print a picture using each intent to compare with the associated soft proofs. However, almost randomly, I either have the option to only choose Perpectual (Photo) or No Colour Correction, or no choice (greyed out showing Perpectual (Photo). I never see the option to choose relative. I'm definetly using the Canon (Pro 200) drivers, not Airprint.  The screenshot shows the greyed out option, I have seen the two options presented several times in the past 10 minutes but can't reproduce for a screenshot.  MacOS 15.0.1 (24A348), Lightroom Classic 14.0.1

I have 150 folders holding 15-20 images each.  I want to import the folders then export them into new folders after making the files a smaller size.  This was the recommended steps from a facebook lightroom group.  It isn't working:  I have selected the folders that I want and use the Copy Import MethodI have set the Destination panel :Into subfolder Checked "For Export"Organize "By original folders.Then hit ImportI select the For Export Folder and select Export In the Export Panel "Export to Same Folder as Original"Add to this CatalogExisting Files "Overwrite without Warning"

And it contains 10 recent images I have the originals in my catalog for. Why would LR Classic download and store smartpreviews, they are supposed to be in the cloud, I don't need them on my HD where I have the originals. What is this mess? What happens if I delete them in LRC?

I use Lightroom 6 but the program is corrupted; everytime I import or export a file, the program stops. Now I want to remove the program of my computer and download it again from the Adobe website. But I get the message that "This installer is no longer available". What can I do to get a new version of Lightroom 6 ?

Bonjour, J'ai acheté une licence LR6 et j'ai donc une clé d'activation.L'installation se passe sans problème. Je rentre ma clé et le système me demande de me connecter au site d'Abode. Et c'est là que çà coince ; mon numéro de série est bien reconnu, mais pas la version du logiciel, et quand je veux sélectionner mon produit dans le menu déroulant, il n'y a pas la version 6. Cela s'arrête à la version 5 de LR.J'avais précédemment la version 5 et cela fonctionne. Comment régler ce problème qui semble venir du site d'Abode.Il est toujorus frustant de ne pas pouvoir contacter directement Adobe.

I just got my new Mac Mini M4 Pro in today! Everything went well with installation except for Lightroom. I keep getting prompts that Lightroom cannot create folders, however the permissions have been granted for it.  Also inside of the develop module the images don't sync together, after some time paste develop settings did not work. The bottom strip also did not always move with the images or keys I was pressing. Just very glitchy throughout. It wasn't slow, it was actually pretty fast, just non-responsive, I had to keep toggling between develop module and Library module.   Importing new images was fine, no issues there. Going back to my old computer for now 😞   Mac Mini M4 Pro 14-Core CPU 20-Core GPU 16-Core Neural ENgine 48GB Unified Memory 2TB SSD   Sequoia 15.1 Lightroom Classic 14.0.1  

Actualice a la última versión de Lightroom Classic y no funcionan las máscaras de reconocimiento de personas, también se cuelga muchisimo para abrir, mi sistema es el macOS Sequoia 15.0.1, por favor requiero soluciones. Gracias por el tiempo tomado a esta y quedo atento a su respuesta. 

I recently bought the 2022 version of LRC. I've scoured this website and others trying everything I can find to get my brushes to show up. I can see them in the local adjustment folder but they won't show when I need them.  How do I get them to show? Also, is it possible to buy a copy from Adobe? I bought mine from a third party site and now I'm wondering if it's even legit.    You need to ask program questions in the forum for the program you are usingTo ask in the forum for your program please start at https://community.adobe.com/Moving from Using the Community (which is about the forums) to the correct forum...

I imported jpeg photos from my IPhone using a Windows 11 computer. I've made edits to the photos in Lightroom Classic and now I want to export the photos to the same folder.  When I do so, Lightroom converts them to jpg.  So now I have the old photo jpeg and an edited photo jpg. There must be a setting so that I can put them back as jpeg.  Jpg is old naming convention so I suspect there is a place I can change in Lightroom Classic Settings

I would like to create a photo book in Lightroom and send to Blurb to be printed.  I don't want the same layout for every page.  I would like some full size, 4 to a page (2 x 2), 2 to a page (both laid out horizontally or vertically) or some combination of 3 photos. I'm completely flummoxed by Lightroom's book module.  I'd like to start with a blank book, ,specify the overall size of each page, and then say for this page I want this layout and drag the photos on to the page.  Setup a new layout for the next page, and drag photos to it.  Is this possible? When I start the book module, I see this:What do I do next?

Hello. I have purchased a Macbook Pro with iOS Sequoia 15.1 and I would like to know if I can install Lightroom Classic now. Thanks!

Hi I am planning to more my Lr from my old iMac (mid 15) too a new one, (newish, 2 yrs old) it only as a small HD so i want to put the images on a SSD, then run Lr on the iMac,  i want to avoid problems so i am am here asking before i try to cause them!! What is the best way forward? Thanks for any help, Alan 

I have been using LRC for several years now and never had any issues till now.    Configuration: iMac 27" intel i9, 96gb ram, LRC catalog and images stored on external Samsung 980 SSD/ MacOS 15.1.1   I udated to MacOS 15.1 a month ago, LRC seemed faster, but within the last week its been crashing after it completes a denoising batch process.     - I repair the catalog and optimize it and it works fine.    Today I started a batch denoise of 150 images. It completed and I went to open one and it crashed.    I restart the app, its says catalog corrupted!!! I then try and repair it, and it fails to repair.    Now it says "An error prevented Lightroom Classic from Opening this catalog. "   I also updated to macOS 15.1.1 today which was security issue fix so I can't imagine it affected the LRC Cat file.    How do I repair this?    I tried the right click option on the LRC catalog but it does not show any opt

I use both Lightroom Classic v14.0.1 and LR (mobile) v10.0.1. I recently did a major cleanup in Lightroom classic then replicated the updates to the adobe cloud DB. During my cleanup I deleted multiple photos I should have kept. LR Classic has no image recovery. The deleted images still show in LR mobile on my iPad as I have replication disabled. Is there a way to upload my LR mobile images to override the photos in the adobe cloud DB and restore the deleted photos?
