Lightroom Classic

Hi all, I am looking for a better workflow for creating multi-page image collages in Lightroom.  I use the print module and I have various templates set up.  I can drag and drop images I want into my template and it looks good.  The problem is I can only do this for one page at a time.  If I add a new page, it is always blank and it doesn't seem possible to apply a template to a blank page? Is there a better workflow that I am overlooking?  Currently, I have to make collages one page at a time and this process is laborious.  The book module / slideshow module don't seem to have the same tools as the print page so I feel trapped between tools.The print tools and templates, in a workspace more similar to the book module would be a better solution for me.     

I have a photo on top of my work before I can begin post-processing my pictures. I'm also unable to load my images.  I cannot get rid of the photo hiding my workspace. I have a Mac air.

When I upload a photo book to Blurb, it ends up with blue lines through random photos...Blurb says this is a Lightroom rendering issue.  Has anyone else had this problem?  And found a solution>

just install LRC v15.0 on a macOS 26.0.1. When I creating a mask in mask panel results in the temp, saturation and tinc sliders moving all the way to the right. The result? a grisly yellow mask even though the overlay color is red. I'm convinced I might have flipped a setting during installation but cannot find where that setting, if it exist, is.Steps: mask>landscape>water (chosen from options) result in yellow mask because the temp and saturation sliders are pegged right. Tint is almost fully pegged right. NOTE; Overlay color set in the mask panel is red. any ideas out there?

Images show forground selected for luminance, vary dark areas, but part of the selection I do not want to alter. Is there a way to 'erase' the part of the mask I want to remove? Being able to use the brush tool like an eraser for this would be wonderful. Second image shows without mask selection to show, only the very dark branches to the right to I want to brighten slightly.

I noticed a serious change in the dark areas after my latest upgrade to version 15. It is then necessary to adjust the glider again to a neutral level. I this normal after upgrading the version? best regards, 

Hey all,I'm fairly new to Lightroom on creative cloud. For some reason when I export my synced photos from my PC, they come out around 1-2 MB or smaller as full resolution JPEGs. The original files on my laptop come out as 10-15MB with the exact same settings in the exact same image in the "All Synced Photographs" folder. Why can't I export these synced files at full size on my PC? Is there a setting or something i'm missing?Or, conversely, do I just need to start fresh on my PC with original RAW and only export from there? Just exclusively doing editing and not exporting full size through the synced photos on mobile/laptop?Thanks!

This will ask about moving the edits from the cloud ecosystem to my classic system in hard drive. I began in Lightroom using Lightroom CC (the cloud based system). This was while backpacking. RAW files were uploaded to the cloud, then I kept them on a portable hard drive. Did all of the editing in the cloud, where I am using a lot of my 1TB allowance, and paying for it. A few years later, I want to downgrade my plan (to keep it sustainable) by clearing most of the RAW files from the cloud.  Key point is that for around 1000 of the photos I want to have the RAW + edits on classic, so I can continue to work with the best images. I have done:1. Export all photos from cloud to JPEGs, so I have them as high quality JPEG as a backup. 2. RAW files are now available on my computer with classic (not imported but easily done) I know how to delete things from the cloud, so that isn't a problem. Is there a way to either: - download the RAW files pl

I just updated to Lightroom Classic 8.0 yesterday and today 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. Any ideas?

Hi I've been attempting to update lightroom classic to version 15 and its become stuck with the following messge showing "updating meta dataon filters removal tool" . Can any one help please? 

After the upgrade it takes a very long time to delete photo´s from the cataloge and harddrive. Toy delete 1700 files it took more then 45 minutes.

Hi, I wanted to try these new LrC 14.4 features, but they are greyed out on my system. I have tried RAW files and JPEGs. When I click on the little triangles, nothing happens.  

Ich habe eine neue Festplatte installiert und auf dieser die Fotoordner von der alten Festplatte hinein kopiert. Die Fotos sind auch alle unter "alle Fotos" sichtbar, aber es fehlen in Lightroom sämtliche Ordner die auf der neuen Festplatte angelegt wurden. Synchronisieren des Ordners und zuweisen des neuen Pfadens hat leider nicht gebracht. Hat jemand eine Tipp für mich? Danke

Since rebuilding my computer and reinstalling Windows 11 (now on version 25H2) and moving the entire Lightroom folder containing the catalog, backups, etc. to the C drive (Photos stored on an external drive) I get a message stating that the catalog is corrupt and needs to be repaired before LrC can open if I attempt to open LrC. after a short period of time, the message - and progress bar - go away and nothing else happens, i.e. LrC does not open although it shows it is running in the Task Manager. I then need to end the task using Task Manager.I have found that by pressing the Shift + Control keys while opening LrC seems to work ok with LrC using the current/latest catalog. Everything works just fine with all my edits, etc. still in place. any additional edits are saved ok when I exit and are available when I reopen LrC using the Shift + Control keys.I have attempted to fix the problem using all the recommendations on this site as well as Google, YouTube, ChatGPT, etc.

Hola!Lightroom Classic me va tan lento que no puedo hacer prácticamente nada.Tenía el catálogo en un disco duro externo y lo pase al ordenador, al disco rígido SSD, pero sigue igual.He estado leyendo mensajes de otros Usuarios pero no veo una solución para mí.Necesito ayuda, please!!!Gracias

I seek clarification as to whether it's possible to save text font, size and colour settings with a custom page?   I have tried this and it seems the custom pages are added with completely different text settings to the ones I have chosen.  

I have lightroom classic, screen shot with version 15.0 Camera Raw 18, I am creating a Panorama merged photo and then editing the resulting dng, I use the sky mask and change the colour as shown in the image, but when I export it does not contain the mask update as shown in the exported image I have tried numerous items online, including deleting the lrcstat-data file and rebuilding the AI and followed some online examples, I am not using Save original. I specify JPEG as shown https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pJyxRWpXzkpJZq21slrl2UXDe4A9Wimn/view?usp=share_link https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PtFZPRWO9kMRi8dVgwS06szTnIOgGK-I/view?usp=sharinghttps://drive.google.com/file/d/14trTrpJu2IzxYl88aQgBzi9DP7WSUsM4/view?usp=sharinghttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1_mIJX0Nkghk8h7yuaorkSIViW76VWoB-/view?usp=sharing ThanksSteve 

I have been struggling for years to find a way of assuring that all photo text is uniform through the entire book.  Doing this manually is inicredibly time consuming and not ideal.  I would also like to ensure continuity of page text throughout.  {The size of the font will be different to that of photo text}. I understand I should be able to select all text by going into 'Edit'.  However, I'm unable to make thiis function work and every photo text box defaults back to another setting.  I would welcome a solution.  FYI I'm using a mac computer. 

I upgraded to new Lightroom few days ago and it asked to upgrade the catalog.Most of the photos are still there, but some folders are empty.I still see folders in LR, but they have no photos. I clicked on "synchronize" and it see over 2000 photos, but sync does nothing, it says no photo to import and folder is still zero.How can I access my photos? What is wrong with them? I have big catalog with about 500 000 photos (many many years), folders by year "2024, 2023, etc" then folders by date (like 2024.10.15) if that matters.

So Im doing all my edits for a photo in LR Classic and once I am done I right click the photo and use the "Edit in" button to get into photoshop. The floor in the photo is dirty so I clean it up and then once im done I export the photo as a JPEG. When I go back to LR Classic the DNG is completely reverted back with none of my edits that I worked on. Why, please I am so frustrated...

Why  is it not possible to update to Lightroom Classic 15.0 (18€/month) on my iMac 27" Core i7 4.2GHz with 40GB of RAM and 8GB of VRAM??? So, why should I pay for this from now?

I Love that LR finally supports Fujifilm tethering with my GFX 100s, it starts quickly, and live view and autofocus works beautifully, It's great to have another option besides Fuji's Tether plugin. I have just one major bug that I found while using it: There is an exact, persistent 5 second delay between pressing the shutter button in LR and the camera autofocusing (5 second pause) then taking the shot, is there any way to get rid of this delay? It transmits the entire 100MP raw file into LR in less than a second when using the shutter on the camera or the Fuji App! Please can Adobe remove this unneeded 5 second delay? Also is there a way to temporary disable the new tether feature and use the Fujifilm Plugin like in the last version? Currently it kind-of works, but live views have to be synced, and it duplicates all the imported files. Auto-import with the separate app works, but that adds another 10 second delay to pull in each file after the shot! Also

Has the issue with color variances with Sony A1 II RAW files and Adobe profiles been resolved with Lightoom 15. Been following the discussions over the past couple of months and had the same issues of washed out colors using Adobe profiles. When I use a Camera ST profile there are no issues. Adobe Camera RAW for Photoshop noted "partial support" for Sony A1 II and I presume this carried through to LrC. So wondering if this has been resolved in LrC 15 and I can once again use Adobe profiles.

Hi there! I accidentally deleted some documents from my Macintosh HD to make more storage space. I use Aftershoot to cull + edit before opening in Lightroom Classic to finish + export - or I use Lightroom Classic to do all the editing. I’ve used Disk Drill to recover the documents but now I have all these random folders that possibly contain the Aftershoot/Lightroom Classic data in it. The recovered folders are on my external hard drive, but where do I save these folders on my Macintosh HD so all the links match again in Lightroom Classic? I back up all my RAWS to external hard drives(s) and import them to Aftershoot/Lightroom with these too. When I open Lightroom Classic to import more photos, I receive an error message (please see screenshot attached). How can I restore the folder that all my projects are saved to in Lightroom Classic under my user?

After trying to get the "Scripts" to show up on my Lightroom Classic menu bar per the "script add" instructions for Preview Extraction script numerous times. I need to know how to enable this so I can run the script and extract my previews. I have attached screenshot of the created folder at the location that opens up when i click the "Show All Other Lightroom Presets" button. I'm also wondering why "Scripts" doesn't show up by default in the menu bar.... if one didn't have any scripts there would be nothing in the dropdown no harm no foul.
