Lightroom Classic

Hello Everyone. I've been a lightroom user for at least 5 years. Way back I had export settings saved in my lightroom but recently I had to delete lightroom off my desktop and redownload it. None of the export settings saved unfortunately. Now, when I export photos, and try to upload to instagram, they are extremely blurry. I've used settings people have recomended on youtube but nothing has worked. The ONLY time my photos aren't blurry and look normal on instagram is if I upload more than one photo. If I upload a single photo, it's extremley blurry. I'm beyond confused. Thanks!

Hallo!Ich habe letzte Woche ein Update von Widows 10 auf Windows 11 gemacht. Seit dem werden in Lightroom classic 14.5.1 keine Vorschaubilder mehr angezeigt. Im Modus Entwicklung wird das Foto allderdings dargestellt. Alle Grafikkartentreiber sind auf aktuellen Stand. Die Nvidia Grafikarte habe ich auch einmal deaktiviert. Ich habe auch Lightroom eine neue "Lightroom Catalog-v13-3 Previews.lrdata" erstellen lassen. Auch habe ich die alle Punkte, die ChatGPT mir vorgeschlagen hat, abgearbeitet.https://chatgpt.com/s/t_68e3f9dc96ec8191b5c7a18f068a4f1bKeine dieser Maßnahmen hat etwas verändert. Ligtroom classic hat bis zu Windows Update tadellos funktioniert. Hat hier in der Community einer eine Idee, wie ich das Lösen kann?Viele Grüße - Hermann

I have a portable 5TB external hard drive dedicated to images on LR Classic. Is there a way to change the name of the hard drive without messing up the connection between the images on the 5 TB HD and the LR Classic Catalogue? 

TLDR: some old (<2021) images in a large catalog spanning from 2007 till today do not display on the develop panel (but do on the library) and don't sync to LR on the Web. At the same time, these and other pictures do not sync to web and the list of unsynced files often mismatches the list of images in the sync pane. All common solutions tried to no avail. Reimporting the files copied from a different folder works but with no edits applied. Here we go.I have a large Lightroom Catalog (8GB) With images spanning from 2007 till today. It's he catalog where I import all of the images I've delivered or are going to be delivered and syncronized to LR Web to eitherselect or edit on the gohave the customer check or confirmpublish a selection of the images to behance and my websiteMy problem is that Syncronization started working erratically with some stuck pictures (sometimes listed on the preferences' syncronization tab, sometimes not - the number of unsyncronized images does not matc

I have been making slideshows from collections, but today when I go to the Collection (in LR classic) and click on slideshow the order is fine, then when I click on "Create Saved Slideshow" the order of the photos changes!  Any suggestions? Thanks.

Bonjour,Impossible de faire fonctionner la détection faciale avec LrC sur mon nouvel ordi. Lorsque je clique sur le picto, j'ai immédiatement le message "Aucune personne n'a été trouvée", même sur des photos de portraits !Je précise que dans les préférences du catalogue, la case "Détecter automatiquement les visages sur toutes les photos" est bien cochée.Merci pour votre aide !

Started on a Mac all was fine.  Moved to my Windows laptop.  My pics are on a NAS.  Did a find missing folder and it found the folder find on the PC.  I have upgraded my Mac so I want to move back.  No issues moving over the catalogs and starting the app.  The NAS folder was available and mounted under the Network prior to starting Lightroom Classic.  Had no problems navigating with the folders prior to starting.  Of course LR classic no longer knew where the mounted folder was so I when in did find missing folder.  I was able to navigate to the folder on the mac.  However when I selected the folder on the Mac, I am getting "An internal error has occurred.  invalid path" error.  Even thought I had no issues navigating to the folder...  So, now I have thousand of photos I cannot get to inside LR Classic, but no problems getting to under the Mac...  version is 14.1.1.

hola, tengo que eliminar muchisimas fotos duplicadas entre muchisimas más ¿como puedo hacerlo? en lightroom classics

La IA de Lightroom Classic no está funcionando, al intentarlo me aparece una ventana que dice Eliminación generativa ha fallado.Hemos detectado un problema y no podemos completar su solicitud en este momento. Inténtalo de nuevo más tarde.No sé si es debido a la última actualización de la aplicación o si hay alguna otra opción para corregirlo

When I preview photos in LRC on memory card before import they are small and blurry with my new Canon R5 and R3. My old cameras showed full size and sharp previews.

I didn't have the JPEG problem in the past.   Everything was working just fine. But tonight, I suddenly cannot do a simple task of exporting from Sony RAW files to JPEG.I have exported thousand of JPEG files from the latest (updated) Lightroom Classic with my MacBook Pro M3 Max Chip with 48GB Memory and 1TB SSD.     There are plenty of  hard-drive storage in my SSD MacBook Pro and my SSD external Hard-Drive.I don't know what happen, but now suddenly cannot do any JPEG Export at all.   I resstarted my MacBook Pro  and  restarted my Lightroom Classic, but it's still not working.    Please see the error file below (attachment).     I also had the latest  MacBook iOS updates and Lightroom Classic latest updates. The JPEG Export was working just fine this morning and it was also working just fine for the last few years.   I don't know why suddenly the JPEG Export stopt working.    P

Ok this has been happening for a couple of days now. I can drop in my RAW photos and all is fine. Then I usually apply my preset to a photo and then apply it to all of them, that is when it freezes and I have to close it. I am working off of SSD's, plenty of RAM and storage.  I have tried to reinstall 2 times, I have tried all different kind of option changes and nothing works. I have so much work to do and I cant do anything. Please let me know if there is anything you can think of. Thank you

Já exclui e instalei novamente, já apaguei o que manda no site e nada resolve. sempre que abro o light vem essa mensagem e não consigo usar. 

I have subscribed to Lightroom Plan with 1TB for $23.99/month.When I looked at the version that was installed on my desktop I noted it was version 8.5 not the latest version 14.  Why is this?It clearly said Lightroom Classic for Desktop, but I got this old version.Very confused, can anyone sort this out for me. 

HiI started with Lightroom Classic 15 years ago  and I later added Lightroom Mobile on a few devices.I have over 18,000 pictures with 1/3 in RAW format and a few videos.I dont understand why it only occupies 19G on my 1T plan.If I export them all in JPG it takes over 70G. RAW takes more room.  I suspect that not all my pictures are backed up in the cloud in top resolution.I need your  help understanding the Cloud Sync/Backup I want to make certain that everything is in the Cloud in the best resolution available. Thank you in advance.

There's something new that's happened with one of your recent updates to Lightroom Classic, and it's pretty undesireable and I'd consider it a bug, if you ask me!   When moving through images in 'develop', I often adjust things like the white balance, the exposure, the cropping, etc., and to ensure that I haven't 'gone too far' and created an image edit that will look out of place and not 'match' the way that I'd edited the previous image, I often quickly press the left arrow key to glance at the prior image in the filmstrip, before moving on and editing the next image...   Problem is, there's now a bug where for a brief moment, a split second really, Lightroom Classic now shows me the image that I'm working on BEFORE the most recent white balance, exposure, and crop, etc. changes were made, and it shows those old settings to me JUST before it shows me the previous image.   This of course destroys my eyes' and brain's ability to remember exactly how the edit I'd just com

I set a custom white balance in camera (using kelvin settings) to 5600, but LR develop module shows it as 6000. I'm using a Nikon D810, shooting RAW, of course. This happens whether I import as NEF or DNG. When I set the camera to "Flash" mode for white balance, LR says I used 7100K. The camera manual says "Flash" is 5400K. One of my colleagues, who also shoots with a Nikon D810, sees exactly the same results.Is this a problem with Lightroom? With all Nikon D810s? Is there a setting I'm missing? I need to submit RAW files for a certification I'm applying for, and they need to verify the WB setting in the files (as shot). I'm concerned that they'll see the wrong values if they use LR to read the data. Beyond that, I'm concerned that my images are ending up too cool because of this issue. Sure, I can adjust the WB to taste for client images, but would much prefer to be able to rely on the specific temperature values.Has anyone else noticed this? Is it a bug? Is there a better way to insp

I have been getting Error 224 when opening the newest release of LRC 14.4. I am using Window 11. After looking for online solutions it looks like the solution has to do with not connecting the the Adobe servers. It works fine when I install the previous version 14.3.1 Any resolution or how to contact support. Chat is AI and no help at all.

Hi!I'd really appreciate your advise!Lightroom Classic (14.5.1)  keeps crashing every 1-3-5-10(max) minutes. Or it just freezes and i have to end the task. (Creative cloud desktop says - works on this device). Windows 11, latest update. Installed 2 days back vinstead of 10, that's when the crashes started (installed on formated hard disk) What has been already done:- reinstalled lightroom-reset preferences- switched off gpu in preferences- updated driver for gpu- created 3 new catalogs (latest one has just one folder for test purposes, catalogs are on internal drive; they were optimized etc) Adobe compatibilty says that system is fine, after it does check after crash. I spent 3+ hours with support agents today, they did the same mentioned above, couldn't find a better solution or agreed escalate the issue (i got really sad, when the solution offered was that my last catalogue with just one folder might be too much. Seriously?). Tickets numbers: Your A

Hello. I know - I'm a novice and it's probably a basic question. I'm trying to take a digital picture and print it into 16x20 but the image becomes super grainy. How can I improve the resolution so that I can print it and it's not so grainy?

I was recently on a walking holiday in Tuscany, Italy. I took a lot of photos. I have an app, Geotag2 Pro, installed on my iPhone which logs times and GPS locations. When I got home I loaded the photos into Lightroom Classic (14.5.1 on macOS) and told Lightroom to apply the tracklog. To be fair the results were all in Tuscany, but all over the place. Photos taken a couple of minutes apart were miles apart on the map.I contacted GeoTag support for advice and they told me to download their tagging app which I did and used on copies of my Tuscany photos. I then  created a separate Lightroom Catalog with just those copies. The results were much, much better; there were a few anomolies but they could be explained by the way the Geotag 2 Pro works and if their logging app can't place a photo in a reasonable place in the time line, it doesn't do anything to it.Has anyone else experienced this problem, or have any ideas for improving the situation? The Geotag logging app seems to work bet

I have the current version of everything.  When flipping between images, Lightroom pauses for anywhere between 3 & 8 seconds.  It's frustrating as I am a professional who is editing thousands of images.  Adobe!  Please let me know what to do?  It did this in previous versions as well.

I used Classic instead of the cloud version for the following reason: I have read that Adobe retains the right to mine private images uploaded to their cloud for use by their AI tools and possibly other purposes.  Since Apple already has all of my personal images on THEIR cloud, i don't see a need to extend access to yet another tech company.     I expected Lightroom to have a usable facial recognition function, but it DOES NOT.   I've spend 12-18 hours manually retagging a few thousand images of family in Lightroom Classic.  The initial tagging was incorrect most of the time.  Dogs and pieces of furniture "recognized" as specific people, old people recognized as young, men as women, the same IMAGE showing up in different groups.  So, in the end, i had to classify or reclassify most of the images, and finally gave up when i got about 60% of them done.  I think in the future I may upload them to my iPhone cloud and let the iPhone do the image

In my workflow, I import into Media/Photo/CameraImport/2025/2025-07-15/filename.arw. Then I develop and rate there, and when I'm done with an event, I select all the ratings >= 1 and Export them as HDR jpgs (or whatever is needed). What I'd like is for the exports to go in Media/Photo/Exports/2025/2025-07-15/filename-HDR.jpg, i.e. /Media/Photo/Exports/<original folder>/<original filename>-HDR.jpg, and have those files not be part of the Lightroom catalog. (If I use "original folder" then later I sync the folder to pick up new imports, it'll also pick up the Exports into the catalog, which would be bad.)Is this possible? I haven't found any way to apply template tokens to the export folder, just the filename. I suppose I could export to one giant folder with everything, /Media/Photo/Exports/2025-07-15-filename-HDR.jpg (filename tokens make that work OK), but that gets hard to manage.What do folks here do? There's probably a better way. Maybe a plugin like h
