Lightroom Classic

HI!Could you tell me how to set the main export settings? I would like to deliver a good product to the end user to print. Let's say a generic export (I don't know beforehand what dimensions or media he will use). Thanks team.

I am migrating my LRC to a new computer and have the following question: On my old computer, user presets were located under "... Pictures/Lightroom/Lightroom Settings/Export Presets/User Presets." The Lightroom folder was also where my lrcat data was stored. On my new computer, most if not all info, settings, and data is stored under " ... /AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom/Lightroom Settings/Export Presets/User Presets." Is this a better file location for this data?What is the best location for the catalog?

In Lightroom Classic, when I click on “IMPORT,” I see ALL of my folders that I want to import. (see attached screenshot) The list of folders in Lightroom matches what I see in Windows Folder Explorer.    So I select/click on the top-level folder, for example “2014” on the IMPORT “FROM” portion of the window to tell Lightroom where to find my import FROM folder.  Then I click on “2014” on the IMPORT “TO” portion of my screen to tell Lightroom where to place my imported folder and files.    Then I click on “IMPORT” at the bottom right of my screen and the IMPORT begins.  After the import process is done ALL of my sub-folders that have an English name associated with the YYYY-MM-DD date format, for example, 2014-02-19 Tulip Garden”,  are devoid/missing my photo files.  Why is this happening?  Thanx.

I have an external 20T hard drive attached to my PC.  On that drive are top level folders by YEAR eg. "2015." Included in the list of top level folder are many subfolders, some that read "2015-02-19" for example and others that read "2015-02-19 Tulip Gardens"   Lightroom is only showing me the subfolders that have just the YEAR-MM-DD as a subfolder name.   I'm trying to import everything in my top level folder "2015" but all I get as a result of my imports are the subfolders designated with YEAR only. None of the other subfolders show up.  WHY?  Thanx!

Lr Classic crashes constantly.  When start the program it works relatively well. After a few minutes of use, it begins to delay the response to any action related to importing, selecting, updating metadata, moving photos between folders or deleting photos.  After numerous tests I have verified that by lowering the resolution of my DELL P2416D monitor (native resolution 2560 x 1440) to the value 1920 x 1080, the tasks begin to run smoothly. It doesn't seem reasonable to me to pay for a program with so many bugs.   Is there any solution?

first I'm on an M1 Macbook pro 64bg ram, OS 13.0.1 Ventura,   I havne't used lightroom in a while (since I had an older computer) but installed them both and the "regular" one works ok, I just don't know it very well. But Classic just always gives me a prompt that permissions aren't set right and it can't operate without that. Yes I did already give permissions to both in the settings and then I even went into library and gave permissions to a ton of files there (user>application support>Adobe>lightroom,  something like those as all the tutorials and 'fixes' say to do, I went and gave permissionss to SO many of those, and still doesn't work. It literally tells me where it doesn't have permissions in the lightroom prompt when I open it and I can go to that folder and see that it has read/write permission so it's basically wrong/lying about it. anyone have any idea what this could mean? I really l wanted to use lightroom again and not do 10 tutorials before I edit

I am totally new to Lr Classic.  Is it best to create Folders on the computer Hard Drive and Import the Folders into Lr Classic, or best to create Folders on Lr Classic and import seperate Images to the Folders ?

I'm in the Developer module I select one photo Use Details -> Noise Reduction - Denoise feature   It works for some time to process the file and then throws the error - "No photo selected"   Can someone please help?   Thanks, Girish   [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.

Hi . Please help. After a few years of using Lightroom Classic to edit my photos, since last week I'm not able to import photos from my SSD into LRC. It's not just my SSD - the import button results in the white spinning wheel at the bottom left panel, and it fails to preview files or select them for import no matter what HDD i select. Lightroom Photoshop can access and import from the same SSD. I have tried the reset as suggested by some users with no success.My versionsMac OS Sonoma 14.16.1 on a Macbook Pro with an M1 ChipAdobe LRC 13.5  

Gostaria de saber, se alguém pode me ajudar com essa questão. Minhas fotos estão ficando diferente no modos Biblioteca e Revelação. No modo Biblioteca, aparece como sempre apareceu, da mesma forma quando abro uma edição no Photoshop, porém no modo Revelação, parece que a foto ganhou uma nitidez em excesso, fica muito diferente. É como se no modo Revelação, ela tivesse ganhado uma edição nos níveis de nitidez. Me ajudem por favor! Desde já agradeço.

Hello, I have a brand new Mac Studio, fully updated along with fulling updated apps. (screenshots attached)Every time I try to edit photos, I get some variation of these glitches. Video here. Sometimes it just blinks so bad it gives me a headache. I use this app for a living, and it is driving me crazy. Any help would be appreciated.  https://youtu.be/06yvGEHFqsw 

Hi all,I am having trouble with the upload of smart previews.Note: The operating system and Lightroom are running in German.

Greetings Everyone!   I am currently using Lightroom Classic version 13.5 on a Windows CPU.   The issue that I having is that when I go to IMPORT Files into Lightroom Classic a couple of "Actions/Sub-Menus" seems to missing.   Missing "IMPORT TO" Sub-Menus/Actions: 1. *FILE RENAMING* 2. *DESTINATION*   *IMAGE ATTACHED*   Are these two options relocated or was this feature omited during the newer firmware updates?   If it is an issue, how do I resolve it?     Much appreciated!

I'm using LR Classic 13.5, but this has happened in the previous version as well.After uploading an image i'm viewing it in the preview (with or w/o preview builder, behaviour is the same) when i go to the image to edit it i notice that it's WB has changed by itself. There is no step in the history for it, but using the "before/after comparison" it is clearly visible that some WB change was done. Pressing the "Reset" button doesnt help. and this leaves me with images that i now need to correct even if the WB was spot on. I have tried removing the GPI and adding it, it didnt help. I am using a rather large catalogue but i am moving my previously edited files to an external HDD after editing is done.No preset has been applied on upload of the images. I am using Macbook Pro with latest version. Please advise and/or correct.Supporting images attached.

Since I got my new Mac Book Air last year, I cannot view my Collections in LrC saved to my portable hard drive. I can create NEW collections, but I cannot view the ones already created. My old computer was a Mac Book Pro. Could that be the problem? I keep LrC up to date. Thank you!!

I'm at my wits ends here. The problem started this January, when I upgrades to Sonoma, I believe. Upon upgrading to LR13, my main catalog became corrupted and no attempts to repair it have been successful.   So for the last 7 months, I reverted back to LR12, and worked off a backup.   However, I recently got a new laptop (M2 chip MacBook Pro), and decided to try LR13 on there. Lo and behold, it converted my LR12 catalog to version 13 without a hitch.   When I tried this same catalog on my desktop, however, it became corrupted again, and now even my laptop won't open it.   I've talked with at least four agents, two of whom have remotely controlled my computer, and they've tried repairing it and sent it back, for it only to become corrupted again within about 30 minutes of use (importing new photos).   Please help! 

My Lightroom Classic catalog won't open. lrcat-shm and lrcat-wal files appear and disappear continuously with the loading screen stuck. I've tried deleting the lrcat.lock file and reset my preferences as those were some suggestions I saw but neither works. The lrcat.lock file just reappers along with shm and wal before those two disappear.   I'm using LrC 13.5 and MacOS 13.6.9   Thanks!   [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.

Trying to tether a D810 to a Mac / Lightroom, but LR simply refuses to detect the camera. Nikon firmware and Lightroom Classic both up to date, the Mac is running Monterey 12.6.2. Tethering works just as it should with my D850, but I like to use the D810 for copy work. I'm also using a new TetherPro USB-C cable. Does anyone have any experience with this kind of setup? Thanks,Alex

Hi there,I'm having trouble exporting my HDR photos. I'm on Windows 11. I have two monitors, one SDR monitor, and an HDR-600 certified monitor, 10bit output from my RTX3070ti. I have HDR in windows enabled with the SDR brightness limittted to 50%. Monitor brightness itself is of course at 100%. Editing the photos is great, really makes em pop, and also makes me wish I had an HDR-1400 monitor 😛 However, the greatness unfortunately stops when I try to export the darn things.JXL is unable to be opened on any program I could find, except for Irfanview, but it seems to just discard the HDRness, and convert it to a washed out 8bit mess.JPG+gain opens like a normal jpg everywhere, not using the gain map. It's just the 'preview for SDR' image. Exception is Chrome, though it still doesn't come out looking like what I saw in the editor.AVIF doesn't have thumbnails, can't be opened by anything except Chrome, where it again looks different to what I did in Lightroom itself.T

Bezit nu lightroom 2024 Hoe kan ik venters links en rechts wisselen van plaats. Groet, Wim
