Lightroom Classic

In my LR classic catalog (50000 items), I have synced 77000 to the LR cloud to edit with the new versions on the go. Recently the sync got extermely slow and I cannot figure out why. I can observe progress in syncing but it is unbearably slow, also LR classic gets extremely slow to use at the same time.Can anyone advise me where I can find any logs on the sync progress and LR classic itself to see myself where the problem lies?Thanks in advance.Adrian

Version 13.5.1. To compare severals images in comparison mode i select these images in library and press N for comparison mode. New bug: When rating one image with a number or a color, the same number or color is applied to all pictures in the comparison. Now it is impossible to apply different numbers or colors to the images in the comparison. 

Hello, I have one LR catalog (on external SSD drive) and my original images are on a hard drive. LR told me that there was a fault in my catalog, closed it and repaired it when I opened it again. Afterwards my smartpreviews and edit history was not available anymore whe I opened the LR catalog. ps: I use the smart previews so I can edit on different computers

After I export an image from Lightroom, Topaz launches itself?Even if I did not use Topaz on that image.How do I stop this automatic start by Topaz Photo AI? Any help greatly appreciated.

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a new computer build for LRc and photoshop, running normal MS apps too.  A vendor I do buisness with is recommending the new AMD Ryzen 7-9700X specs are below.  Im also going to get a graphics card strickly for monitor support not gaming with Nivida 12gb DDR6.  Installing Samsung Pro990 SSD's: 8 core Granite Ridge L2 8MB cche, L3 32 MB cache, 65 w power consumption, operation Frequency 3.8 Ghz, turbo speed 5.50 GHz, 16 processing threads, 64 bit.I would like opinion before I do. ThanksMike

I have a Dell T3500 Workstation with an Nvidia Quadro 2000 graphics card and 24GB RAM, running Windows 10 pro x64 on a Crucial MX500 SSD. I have installed all the latest firmware and hardware/software updates I could find for Windows, Direct X and my Quadro GFX card. I installed LR CC 13.5.1 and it does run but I do get a warning message at startup stating my system is now unsupported. When I go into this version's performance page, the choice to use my Nvidia card is greyed-out.I'm not expecting miracles but I do want to maximise the performance of my Lightroom rig by running the absolutely last version of LR CC that would have supported my PC and which allows me to use my GFX card's resources.

 Hey guys, I've searched all over for a solution and couldn't find any. It doesn't happen all the time, but sometimes this green line is appearing either on the very top or the very bottom of the photo after exporting. It doesn't appear within Lightroom environment where I'm working on the raw file. But usually on the exported jpg (8 bit, 300 dpi). Cropping it on Photoshop doesn't help either because it will continue to appear regardless. Any help will be appreciated. 

Hi all,I am an absolute beginner with Adobe products and image processing in general, so please bear with me.I found heaps of our three children's artwork in our garage. I would like to digitize them and give them to the children as a lasting memory, maybe also print them as a book or so.To do this, I photographed the artworks, some of which are very large, with studio lighting on a white, lightable base. Now I want to remove the white edges from the pictures (which are all different in size and shape) and enhance/adjust them automatically. As there are really hundreds of works of art, I need a procedure that is as automated as possible, preferrable with 1 click.I am also not sure if it is better to crop the images or to remove the background?Thanks for any help!I have attached a few sample pictures.

Yesterday my Western Digital external hard drive crashed. I have tried retrieving data via several different methods, and come up empty. Following yesterday crash, I'm now working on rebuilding my Lightroom galleries from galleries still on memory cards. Most of these galleries are filled with already-edited photos.The external drive that crashed was JKP Passport 1. So images in Lightroom that were associated with images on that drive now understandably show up as missing.I am reimporting images from my memory cards and want to associate them with the newly created folders on my new drive, JKP Passport 2. But when I try to associate these images, I am told they are already associated with another photo in the catalog and can only be associated with one photo. They are associated with images on a drive I cannot access, however. Can anyone help me? I don't want to lose the edits I have already done. Thank you!

Olá galera! Será que alguém consegue me ajudar? Quando importo minhas fotos para o lightroom classic, elas ficam quadriculadas, não consigo visualizar em sua máxima qualidade, dificultando meu processo de seleção. O que pode estar acontecendo?

Hi; I know that there are lots of similar posts but none of them could help me i decided to post my own launching problem. Sorry.   Last time i used Lightroom Classic var on June 2024; afterward I updated it last week and it did not launvh. I tried every suggestion but no way.   Today i alsı updated MacOS; still no launch - Cleaned cache - Deleted preferences - Did multiple uninstall / reinstalls  - Tried different catalogues and backups frm my external hard drive   No solution. Here is the first part of my report that i sent.    Process: Adobe Lightroom Classic [1507] Path: /Applications/Adobe Lightroom Classic/Adobe Lightroom Classic.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe Lightroom ClassicIdentifier: com.adobe.LightroomClassicCC7Version: 13.5.1 (13.5.1)Code Type: ARM-64 (Native)Parent Process: launchd [1]User ID: 502 Date/Time: 2024-09-16 23:44:51.2884 +0300OS Version: macOS 14.6.1 (23G93)   Thanks fot any support & suggestions...  

when I imported photos they do not show up in the Library view and only show up in the Develop module if I click on a specific photo. All of my existing photos show up correctly, it's only the new imports that do not show up. I looked in finder and the pictures are in the correct folder and the metadata does show correctly in the Library module, but all I see are gray boxes, no photos.

When editing photos, the + - box in the bottom right corner of the image use to only come up when adjustments were made to the image, now it adds on when I just click on it, I would like for it to only add on there when actual adjustments are made, that way I know which ones need to be edited and which ones have been already. Anyone know how to turn it off for just "clicked on" images? Thanks!  

Need help.My cat stepped on my keyboard and caused my library screen went blank. Can't figure out what keys where pressed. All my files are still here just not showing at my library. There is a new "People" tap on the top right corner and appears to be doing facial search, and the library shows "no people found". How can I have my library showing my exiting files again?

He reinstalado el Lightroom y cuando intento usar algunos de los presets, me aparece "Se están descargando algunos modelos de mascara. Intentelo de nuevo más tarde" y nunca actualiza, han pasado por eso? Como lo solucionaron? Gracias.

Frequently when using LR in Library module, grid view, the position indicator on the scroll bar disappears.  Sometimes I can bring it back by reducing thumbnail size but not always.  Sometimes shutting LR down and restarting restores it at normal thumbnail size but sometimes restarting doesn't do a thing.   I hope there is a fix for this because it's a giant pain.

in the library filter text search, i'd like to be able get results if a word matches as word in the folder name itself, as opposed to just in keywords, file names, etc. Is there any way to accomplish this, even if I have to go about it in a roundabout way?

Hello, Lrc v. 13.5.1 Win 10. I was happily working for about 3 hours in Lrc yesterday when the develop sliders started being very unresponsive.  I Googled the problem and the first suggestion was to disable my graphics card.   The setting was turned off whth a message  "Graphics processor acceleration is not supported by your system".  I always have my graphics card enabled.  My graphics card is a Nvidia RTX A2000 which does fit the Lrc requirement.  I then opened Lr and it shows my graphics card and all of the adjustment sliders work perfectly, same thing for Ps. I then reset my preferences thinking that might solve the problem but it did not. I hope someone might have the answer.  Lrc is really unuseable at this point. Thank you so much! Tom

Wenn ich im Entwickln Modul Personen Maskieren will kommt die Meldung keine Person gefunden. Grafikkartentreiber wurde aktuallisiert. Plugin Excore Search V 3.1.0.0 ist installiert. Hoffe, dass das kein Zusammenhang hat. Danke für die Antworten. Grüsse Silvio 

Seit einiger Zeit erscheint die Meldung "Lightroom kan Datei nicht schreiben", wenn ich meine DNG-Bilder in jpeg auf der externen G-Drive-Festplatte speichern möchte. Lokal scheint das Speichern zu funktionieren. Woran kann das liegen?   [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules. A ‘bug’ is not just another word for any problem with software!]

In Lightroom Classic, I have photos in a collection that is synced with Lightroom. In Lightroom, I shared these photos with a friend and asked for comments. Now, I can see the comments on individual photos in the collection in Lightroom Classic when they sync. How can I view these comments on the original photo stored on my computer's hard drive?

Please can someone suggest a solution to a recent problem I am having in the develop module of LRC version 13.4 where I am no longer able to get the masking tool to work for either the subject or background. It does however work if I select sky. I do not get an error message but if I select subject or background it detects for less than second and then nothing happens and no mask is created. I have upgraded my GPU driver and windows 11 and uniinstalled DXO4 and Topaz AI and the problem still persists. Below a copy of my system info:Lightroom Classic version: 13.4 [ 202406181129-60d181b7 ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: enOperating system: Windows 11 - Home Premium EditionVersion: 11.0.22631Application architecture: x64System architecture: x64Logical processor count: 16Processor speed: 2,9GHzSqLite Version: 3.36.0CPU Utilisation: 7,0%Power Source: Plugged In, 255%Built-in memory: 16099,0 MBDedicated GPU memory used by Lightroom: 260,0MB / 2007,3MB (12%)Real memory ava

Hello Lightroom folks,I got a problem with my Lightroom. When im developing RAWs, every 30-60 minutes my whole windows freezes. At first, i can still move the mouse, but after a few seconds also this is not possible anymore. I can not go into Taskmanager or click anything, i have to brute force reset the PC.I think it only happens once I applied masks to several images. But its not really reproducible. I had that freezing issues also with the last 2-3 Lightroom versions, so its not limited to the newest one.I do not observe any overheating (CPU stays <70°C and GPU <60°C). I also do not observe these crashes while doing anything else than LR (gaming, surfing etc). My hardware:Windows 10Ryzen R9 5900x (at 110W PPT)64 GB DDR4-3600 RAM (Corsair Vengeance LPX 18-22-22-48, 2 x 32 GB kit)RTX 3080 undervolted to 0,775 VLR (13.5.1) running on one SSD (Kingstom A2000 2 Tb), while all images and the catalog is running on a seperate NVME SSD (Lexar NM790 4 TB).My workflow is usually:imp

Hello I have your app Lightroom, because you have a policy that states that you do not use or sell image and video material to third parties.So I assume that what I download from my device and that I edit in lightroom will not be used or sold to anyone else. However, I have the problem that I can't make collages in Lightroom, but on the other hand it is possible in Lightroom classic. In this connection, I want to make sure that the same security policy applies in Lightroom Classic before I install it.
