Lightroom Classic

There is a problem with the Raw Canon file CR2. It appears in DENOISE as an unsupported file.

About 3 month ago I upgraded to the Canon R6 Mark II and after I upload my images they are grainy and not as sharp as I would like. I shoot RAW and upload to Lightroom. Take this photo for example. Below are the specs. Is this grain normal or am I being nitpicky? If I use an ISO over 800 it is even worse. I want to be excited about this camera so hopefully I can get a little advise. Thank you in advance. Exposure: 1/250 @ f/5.0ISO 320  

I have been using bridge for some time to rate, label and keyword my images.Am now starting to use light room.In lightroom have set the colour label to Bridge default and have made sure the text against each label is the same as the text in my bridge preferences. ie in both the green colour is labelled 'For Sale' etc.If I update the colour label of a file in Bridge should the update flow through to light room and vice versa.I have updated a label from yellow to green in lightroom,When I open Bridge my smart collection based on the green tab does not pick up the file i have changed becasue if#t is still shown with a yellow label in bridge.I have tried the same thing going back the other way.Chnage form yellow to green in bridge, and in lightroom this is still shown as yellow.So I end up with the same file rated in the original colour in one application but shown in the updated colour in the other.Is this normal or do I need to manage my set-up for the chnages to flow through? 

I'm trying to add my subscribed LrC and PS apps to my new Apple 24 M3 2023 iMac computer, but it won't accept my Adobe password when prompted so I can continue on with the download process. Any ideas?

Hi fellow Lightroom Classic users, I finally migrated over from the cloud-based Lightroom out of frustration with UI problems, and I am slowly discovering new features that LrC has. One of them is the ability to create lossy DNGs. I tried it out and I am impressed at how well it was able to compress DNG files, especially those produced by denoising applications such as DxO PureRaw: 90MB to 9MB. It is a significant disk space saving. What I do not know is how well it preserves detail. I am not good at pixel peeping - anyone else here with more experience can tell me if they're able to see a significant loss in detail for professional work? I find it kind of paradoxical that Adobe can compress raw formats smaller than the lossy raw formats offered in camera. Am I losing dynamic range or microcontrast? I have no idea how to judge.

QUESTION: I'd like to have the "folder name" where an image is saved in LRC included as a tag/metadata in each image automatically or thru some bulk action.BACKGROUND: I have all of my images stored on a hard drive in folders that are named with Date and event.  Hundreds of folders within folders and over 100,000 images.  These folders and the images inside them are then sync'd with LRC.  Using LRC face recongnition, I tag each image with the names of the people in the image. I then write that metadata back to the file to make sure that it always stays with it.  I would love to also save the information contained in host folder name to each image because it relates to the overall event.  With hundreds of folders within folders, i'd love to do this automatically or using some type of bulk action rather than folder by folder or image by image.Screen Capture Below? 

Hi all!I'm a wedding photographer and have been using LR for years now. Recently I just updated to the latest update (13.5 I guess?) and afterwards, some of my exported photos have been exporting quite differently than I edited them. There are about 1900 photos in the catalog and it only happens to the last 400 photos or so, and only SOME of them. Some of the exported edits are drastically different; some are only subtly different in which the photos have signifiantly more grain than intended, and less contrasty. It's weird because the rest of the catalog exports perfectly the same, so there's definitely a problem with only those specific photos. Last couple times this happened (years ago), I contacted Adobe and usually spend about 2 hours only for them to screen share and press a bunch of buttons and tell me they don't know what the problem is, every single time. So I'm hoping there might be some answers here. Has anyone else had this problem after the recent update, and figured

I backup my Lr Classic Catalogue monthly.  Can I safely delete backups more than 2 years old to free external hard drive space?

Hi everyone, I'm encountering an issue in Adobe Lightroom Classic where I'm seeing gray previews even though I have the "Original + Smart Preview" setting enabled. Here are the details of my situation: Lightroom Version: Lightroom Catalog - V13-3 Operating System: AMD Ryzen 5 5500U, Windows 11 Education Issue Description: I have the "Original + Smart Preview" setting enabled in Lightroom Classic. Despite this, many of my photos are displaying as gray thumbnails. When I check the Library module, the histogram indicates that the "Original" is present, so the files are not missing. I've tried generating new previews by going to Library > Previews > Build Standard-Sized Previews, but the issue persists. I've also tried disabling the GPU setting under Preferences > Performance, but this didn't resolve the issue. I'm at a loss for what to try next. Has anyone else experienced this issue or can suggest further troubleshooting steps? Any help or insights would be g

Is there any way to choose a different font when printing the "Photo Info" in Lightroom Classic? I would like to choose something different but don't see a way of changing that font. Help!

Hi, I have downloaded Lightroom Classic and when I try to sign up to the free trial and click on pay, the site it takes me too says that there is an error and unable to access the page. This has happened when i try and sign up through the app, website and on my phone.   Is this an adobe error or is there something I can do?

Hallo Community, vielleicht könnt ihr mir helfen und habt für mein Problem eine Lösung.Ich bin Hochzeitfotograf im Hobby Bereich. Dadurch dass ich mit 2 Kameras Fotografiere muss ich in Lightroom Classic die Reihenfolge (Sortierung) manchmal anpassen. Die Reihenfolge wird trotz Benutzerdefinierte Reihenfolge im normalen Lightroom also nicht CC trotzdem nicht übernommen.Wenn ich jetzt also meinen Freunden den Link aus LR schicke sind die Bilder nicht in der Reihenfolge wie ich Sie in LRC sortiert habe. Gibt es dort eine Lösung oder ist das normal, dass man in jedem LR die Bilder extra sortieren muss also LRC LRweb LR mobil.Für eine Rückmeldung wäre ich sehr dankbar. Gruß Tim 

Q1 - I have seen posts suggesting the Smart Preview is limited to 2560/2540 pixels on the long side meaning that if the original is less than that that is the size of the Smart Preview, so for example a 2000 pixel image on the long side will have a Smart Preview that is 2000 pixels and won't be upsampled.  Is there anything in Adobe's documentation that confirms this?  I have not found it.  This matters when synching a collection to Adobe Portfolio.   Q2 - Does Adobe's documentation tell us which is correct 2560 or 2540?  Doesn't matter that much but nice to know.  

One of my camera's generates really small images: 1080 pixels square; but not all images in the catalog are that small. If I set the catalog to generate all smart previews so that I can edit off line, will it upscale those images?  Should I set small images to 1:1 and use smart only for the larger images? Thanks!

Not sure this is a new bug or an issue with my catalogs or both, but after installing v13.5, LRC became very sluggish in several operations. Issues are not constant, they come and go every 5-10 minutes...I made a list:   After editing a picture, it takes several seconds to update metadata When I am in develop module, I can not longer navigate to next or previous image using left or right arrows. I have to switch no library module to do that or click with the mouse in the desired image. Flagging or scoring images takes sometimes several seconds to show. Scores sometimes revert to previous score, seconds after changing the score. Sometimes a photo already edited, its thumbnail appears unedited for several seconds in library, then updates to edited. Metadata filters in Library take long to show values or filtered pictures. In Library, selecting light out to dim or off, sometimes does not work until entering develop module. Almost all operations related to updating metadata are slow.

Hello, Ive come across an Issue, I find quiet hard so solve.My Lightroom has a different Gamma or Contrast than my Exports.The Lowlights in my LR are detailed and are not clipping.In my Exports these Parts look propper dark, no matter what Photo Viewer I use. no matter which OS. On my grilfriends Mac some darker Parts with slight details are really black.  I hope the difference is showing on these Screenshot. I´m using W10, i have a calibrated Screen with my own Spyder checker ICC profile.The colors dont look off just the dark areas.Can someone help me with this Problem?

Bonjour,Je rencontre un soucis avec le cloud lightroom.Après un shooting, j'ai comme d'habitude charger mes photos sur lightroom classic, puis créer une collection synchronisé afin de retrouver celles-ci sur mon iPad. J'ai par la suite retouché l'ensemble de mes photos, puis au moment de revenir sur le PC pour effectuer l'export, je me rends compte que mes modifications ne sont pas synchronisés. J'effectue alors toutes les manips possible et imaginable pour essayer de résoudre le problème mais sans succès !Je précise que j'effectue cette manip depuis un moment et que c'est la première fois que ça ne fonctionne pas. Selon moi, la synchronisation fonctionne de lightroom classic vers mobile mais pas l'inverse.Mes logiciels sont à jour, mon système d'exploitation aussi, je ne sais plus quoi faire.. Merci par avance

Wie kann ich feststellen, in welchen Sammlungen sich ein oder mehrere Fotos befindet?

How do I fix this? I don't get it. When I export from mobile, there is very little grain compared to when I export from Lightroom classic. How do I fix this? I want the pics to have a larger file size than they would if they exported from mobile, but literally everyone comes out completely ruined like this example. yes, I used a high ISO but this makes 0 sense to me. Please help me fix it. the pic with extreme grain is from Lightroom classic, the lower res one without grain is from Lightroom Mobile. 

Hello! I have the following problem: When I export a photo, the photo is not only saved to a folder, but the exported photo is also uploaded to Lightroom. This means that if I export 3 versions, I also have the three extra photos in Lightroom, which is annoying. If I don't like the exported photos and delete them, Lightroom can understandably no longer find them, but they still appear in Lightroom and I have to delete each one. how can I deactivate this double saving? and how can I delete untraceable photos all at once without having to mark them individually? Any ideas? 

After a shoot I give my client the URL of the synched collection for them to pick their favorites by clicking on the heart and making an optional comment.  I can look to see if there is a gold comment badge on the collection that indicates to me that they have liked or commented on an image.  That gold comment badge usually disappears after I have looked at the commented images.  But sometimes the gold comment badge remains even after removing all commented images from the collection.  When you click on a gold comment badge, it gives the option to mark all comments read.  This does not work as the gold comment badge remains.  I’m running Lightroom Classic 13.5 on Windows 10.  Though this issue was present in release 12. 

Bonjour, j'aimerai solliciter votre aide par rapport à un bug que j'ai rencontré sur lightroom. Il me dise que il y a une erreur, et ça me le fait à chaque lancement pendant le chargement. Je ne sais pas par quel moyens je peut résoudre ce problème. Si quelqu'un aurai des pistes ou des solutions, j'en serai reconnaisante, merci beaucoup !  [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.
