Lightroom Classic

I'm working with Lightroom Classic and I synchronize some collections with the cloud. Everything works fine, I can access these cloud based photos using a browser. Now I would like to access these cloud photos using the Lightroom API. I can successfully authorize/login using OAuth2 and get an access token, but the catalog request (https://lr.adobe.io/v2/catalog) always returns error 404.What is the problem? Does the Lightroom API not work with Lightroom Classic synchronized collections? Do I need the Lightroom Cloud version?Thanks for help.Kurt

I am trying to create a Slideshow in Lightroom Classic.  I noticed the Export Video, Preview and Play buttons were not active.  After a search, others recommended uninstalling LRC and reinstalling.  Now when I start up the program, I receive the folloiwng message"Dynamic Link Media Server failed to launchSlideshow playback is not possible due to an error. Please try relaunching the app. If the problem persists, you may want to re-install Lightroom." I cannot find any recent posts on how to solve this issue.  Any suggestions?   System Info:Lightroom Classic version: 14.0.1 [ 202410161356-30922cfc ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: enOperating system: Windows 10 - Business EditionVersion: 10.0.19045Application architecture: x64System architecture: x64Logical processor count: 4Processor speed: 3.3GHzSqLite Version: 3.36.0CPU Utilisation: 1.0%Power Source: Plugged InBuilt-in memory: 16331.5 MBDedicated GPU memory used by Lightroom: 23.2MB / 20

I have Lightroom classic and running most recent version of Catalina.  My drag and drop dragging photos into collections is not working.  I know it's not the computer because I can drag things around on my desktop.  I want to organize photos into collections and I cannot get anything to drag - whether a single photo or several at a time.  

Bonjour, J'utilise Lightroom Classic version 15.0 sur un Macbook pro 16 pouces 2021 tournant sous Sequoia 15.6.  Dans le module impression de Lightroom, l'aperçu ne fonctionne plus : impossible d'obtenir une visualisation de ma photo mise en page en fonction des paramètres définis avant impression.  Quelqu'un a-t-il rencontré ce problème?  J'ai désinstallé puis réinstallé Lightroom, sans résultat.  J'ai effacé mes préférences, sans résultat.

Hello, I am using Lightroom Classic on Mac OS 26.0.1. I have photos that are part of a cloud-synced collection and a local collection. Whenever I undo the action of deleting a photo, I end up with a syncing loop that does not resolve the cloud-based collection. So to clarify, photos are put back into their local collection but not restored to the cloud-based collection. I can restore those photos to the cloud-based collection easily if I go to ligthroom.com. However, Lightroom Classic still will not resolve its sync activity issue, which becomes a nuisance as it prevents me from determining a newly synced collection's status. Any suggestions? Maybe its MacOS app cache issue?   Thanks, Eyad    

Hey allemaal!  Als ik lightroom classic wil openen krijg ik de melding dat de catalogus is beschadigd en de reperatie daarvan even kan duren, Na die melding sluit het zich weer en gebeurt er niks... Ik heb al geprobeerd om de app te verwijderen en weer te instaleren maar dat lukt niet omwillen van dat lightroom nog steeds 'open staat of in gebruik is'  Weet iemand hoe ik dit probleem kan oplossen? 

Hi guysI use 2x Macs, syncing to the exact same Synology Drive folder on my NAS. This is about having the same Lighteoom catalogue available on both Macs. I only use Lightroom on one mac at a time. Is this good practice or advised against? So each mac has Synology Drive client installed, syncing to the exact same folder on my NAS. That will be 3x copies of the same folder / lightroom catalogue. 1, Mac12, Mac23, NAS Home DriveEach Mac to sync to the same Home Drive.  Do you reccomend this practice of syncing a catalogue and use one catalogue on 2x computers?

I hesitated to report this because I thought we'd see an update out shortly after Tahoe and i'd wait and see if that addressed it. I've gone through a few MacOS updates and this hasn't changed anything. Yes, i understand a beta version of MacOS isn't supported but still wanted to throw this out there for awareness. MacOS Tahoe (26.1 beta) with Lightroom Classic 14.5.1. Problem is the app window seems to somehow end up moving itself to be positioned under the top Apple menubar. I can go to Window->Fill and it'll move it back into place. But it doesn't stay here, it'll eventually move back up where I can't see the top of the Lightroom window. If the window is not already maximized, i'm unable to double click the top of the window to maximize it. In fact, I can't drag the window in or out at all to resize it either. Lastly, the window somehow randomly moves to my second screen at times. 

I mistakenly identified the wrong person.  So now there are 20+ photos with the wrong name.   This is showing up in the "confirmed" section.  How do I remove the name from this group of photos?  I was hoping that I could drag all these photos from "confirmed" to "similar," but that does not work.

I am getting the attached internal error upon startup of Lightroom every time.  I believe this started occurring after I upgraded to 13.0 however I also upgraded my OS to Sonoma 14.1.1 about the same time. After hitting okay, I am able to import, edit, export, etc with no noticable issues. The one thing I am seeing though is Gallery Synnchornization is stuck in a starting state. I'm on a Macbook pro M1 w/16GB of memory. Anyone see this or have suggestions? Thanks in advance for any info you can share.  

Desde Lightroom 15, al guardar metadatos en ficheros jpg me crea un archivo sidecar ACR, (no XMP).Mi flujo es: importo en lightroom, revelo en lightroom, exporto a jpg, los jpg los ubico en el mapa y pongo titulos, copyright y otros metadatos, pongo palabras clave, y hago CTRL-S para grabar los metadatos en el fichero jpg, y en este momento me crea el fichero ACR.Cada vez que hago un CTRL-S, me crea el fichero otra vez. ¿Es normal?

Help. After updating to ver. 15, lost settings to automatically export metadata w/ file being exported/opened in Photoshop for final polish.  I'm a newbie; I don't how to restore that functionality.

Hello! I have been using Lightroom for a couple months now (my subscription covers Lightroom classic, desktop, and mobile) and recently all of my photos in Lightroom have become pixelated. This pixelation occurred seemingly at random, and happened to all photos I have in Lightroom - it had never been an issue before and I adjusted no settings around the time this began. It makes the photos more difficult to edit, as I typically zoom in quite far to remove small background objects, and the pixelation best be seen once you have zoomed in. The problem goes beyond editing, however, as my photos save with this pixelation as well. This is happening on all versions of Lightroom I use (classic, desktop, and mobile). I will attach examples photos to this post... Here is the first photo, saved to my device in February, before the pixelation happened. This is how my photos used to look when editing them as well, even while zooming in as far as possible:The second photo is anot

Can you apply real thermal imaging on existing digital photos to find out how hot is an item from digital photo?

Non mi si aprono alcune maschere e il sistema si blocca di continuo 

Lightroom Classic 15.0 after updating, on Windows 11 latest all.   When using the remove tool, Lightroom adds a pin to show the location. A shortcut for deleting multiple remove spots was to hold down the ALT key and then circle the spots, which removed them. That no longer works in 15.0. It appears to be working normally in Camera Raw. 

Hello, I have been facing a problem regarding my presets not appearing in my profile in lightroom classic v15. (Macbook)  I have tryied multiple times to deselect the ""Store presets with this catalog" and "show partially compatible develop presets" and is still not working.I have also tryied applying them directly in the folder "User presets" inside the "developed presets", and they still don't appear in my list of presets. They also don't appear in "profile" while being in developed mode.I am using raw files and the presets are XMP from authentic love presets. Every time I try to import them again it says the have already been imported but I just can't find them anywhere. I have been using these presets in lightroom classiv v13 and it worked perfectly. Since I have updated to v15, I can't find them anymore.Please, if you had the same problem and know how to fix it, please help. Thank you!

Hi,It seems that on non-english installations, LR 15 is trying to find the Windows 11 "Pictures" folder and fails. I'm running Windows 11 french and my "Pictures" folder is actually named "Images". I'm running LR in french. In Library mode, LR 15 tries to include the Pictures folder but marks it with a black exclaim icon, therefore indicating that it cannot find folders in it. This ghost folder cannot be removed. Its infotip says "Subfolders missing. Please relink".  I don't know what "relinking" means in that case.  - Switching to the english language doesn't help.- I can however synchronize this ghost "Pictures"folder and actually add the subfolders of my Images folder.- If I then remove them from LR, I can then remove the ghost Pictures folder. It will however be back after restart, still marked with the black exclaim icon.- I have the same problem on my laptop. By the way, I don't know why LR insists on including the Images/Pictures folder in the folder tree. I don't

I am working with the latest version of Lightroom Classic on an Acer Tower and I am having an issue with making a collection the target collection. I have streamlined my workflow. After importing my photos, I create first a collection set, then nested beneath that first a collection consisting of the full shoot. Then I want to create another collection, also nested under the Collection set, called Picks. I deisignate that collection as the Target Collection. The problem is that when, after using the filter and narrowing the images down to the ones I have rated, I select those but then right click hoping to add those to the target collection, that option does not appear and instead I get the message Create Quick collection. What am I doing wrong? Thanks as always to community

Looking for help from the community. After I updated LRC to V14.2 from V14 I started to encounter issues with my LR Catalog where older folders wouldn't show any photos in the library module despite the folder name showing a items number next to it. Thought I left filters on and it wasn't that.  Fast forward to yesterday - updated to V15.0 and all of the folders in the catlog show 0 images (see image below)I have right clicked (windows user) to syncronise the folders and 90% have come back but LR encountered a problem in the process. I am still missing around 1000 photos from the folders but if you were to right click -> explorer and see the folder, the images are there.  What can I do to get this fixed?Not understanding how LR catalogs fully work technically, I tried creating a new catalog and import from the original folder thinking that there would be edit data saved to the files and well, I learnt quickly that this will not solve the problem as an a

I saved all my files, and my LR classic backups, on an external hard drive. The drive was then backed up to a cloud service. My current LR catalog is on my main computer drive. The external hard drive recently failed, and I cannot access the files anymore. I am recovering them from the cloud service, and plan to rename the new external drive the same letter as the failed drive. I'm hoping that when I open LR Classic the next time (after the files are recovered), it will "see" the files all on the new drive. Does anyone have any experience with this type of issue, and if so, does my plan make sense? Or is there something else I should do? 

Bonjour,Je passe mon LrC de PC à Mac.Tous les Raw qui sont sur le disque Mac sont lus. Une très grosse partie de mes Raw sont sur un NAS Synology, mais pour ceux la, quand je lui fais rechercher les fichiers manquants (manip qui fonctionne à chaque changement d'emplacement d'habitude...), j'ai le message suivant :"An internal error has occurred.Invalid path."Des pistes pour ce problème ? 

In the past (prior to v15) I opened LR, then inserted the SD card, the "import" menu popped up and I selected the first and last file I wanted to import (and it imported all photo's inbetween...).Now in v15, when I select the first file I cannot scroll to the last one, as LR keeps on jumping back to this first file. Never had this issue before. What can cause this?

With the Fix/Remove (Clone) tool, when you move the clone source, the image warps vertically even though it's horizontal. This is all with the Lightroom Classic V15 update. Another problematic tool is Lens Blur which no longer works! (Clip02.mp4)
