Lightroom ecosystem (Cloud-based)

Since the recent update, I’m having a lot of issues with masks. When I create a new mask (example a linear gradient mask) some of the sliders have already been adjusted. I have the ‘Reset sliders automatically’ box checked. Additionally, sometimes I am adjusting the sliders for a mask and the change is not being applied to the image (like if I change the exposure slider the selected area does not get brighter/darker). Finally, if I right click on a mask » Delete » nothing happens and the mask isn’t deleted. Is this a known issue? Any tips on how to resolve this please?I am using Lightroom version 9.4 and Windows 11.

Over the past 3 days, lightroom mobile does not work, period. It won't add photos from my photos app, and any photos that are in there are unable to be edited. All I get is the spinning wheel.It also will not export any photos. Basically it is unusable. I am using the latest Android version, on a pixel 10 pro XL.Look forward to hearing feedback and how the issue can be rectified 

Arrowing through a number of images suddenly this image was overlayed with the previous one. Restarting Lightroom Desktop 9.3 on my MacBook Pro M2 Pro did not fix this. I was able to use the Versions tab to revert the image. Then I started arrowing through again and a minute later the same thing happened to a different image. At the time I wasn’t processing anything heavy on my MacBook, but the fan was running pretty fast so something was going on. A few minutes later and I now can’t duplicate the issue.  

Since the new update in Lightroom (8.31), when I export an image, items I've removed with generate remove do not apear in the exported image.

If I copy an edit or choose a preset for my image, on leaving the image to the next image, the edit reverts to original. It's like no edit stays, because even when I edit from scratch, like in the attached images, I adjusted my saturation and vibrance slider, but on coming back to the file, it's reverted back to original image. I can't also save versions. There is also no auto saving of versions. Moved the saturation and vibration slider. 5:22Exited and came back to same image. The edits are reverted. 5:23 

Lightroom mobile (Version 11.4.10) seems to have introduced a new bug. On the iPad Pro (11' M4) scrolling through albums or photos using two fingers on the touchpad of the Magic keyboard does not work properly anymore. In landscape mode, swiping up/down (scrolling) moves photos left/right. Swiping left/right actually scrolls up/down. It's as if the touchpad and Lightroom would be 90° off.

Unable to edit the text in the “Add watermark” field. As soon as I attempt to edit it, it deletes everything. Text does not appear on the image in the preview or after export. I have tried both black and white colour options, tried with drop shadow and without, etc. I am running macOS Sequoia 15.7.7.

TitleGhost keywords remain in Lightroom Desktop/Web after removing them from all photosProductAdobe Lightroom (Cloud Desktop)Version9.4.1PlatformmacOSDescriptionAfter removing a keyword from all photos, the keyword remains visible in the keyword list even though it is no longer assigned to any photo.The keyword returns 0 photos when selected, but it is still present in the keyword list. The same ghost keywords are visible in Lightroom Web, so the issue appears to be synchronized through the cloud rather than being caused by a local database.Steps to reproduceSelect an existing keyword.

Here we go again. Lightroom began crashing on me over the last few days. All updates are current. Working fine thru the editing process and just began crashing. I have filed many reports and no contact from Lightroom yet. Anyone else have this issue just begin? Hoping for a work around.    [Mod: Moved to the appropriate Lightroom ecosystem forum]  

Hi, I'm having an issue with Lightroom Mobile on my iPhone 11 running iOS 26.5. The AI Retouch tool is not working correctly. It processes for a few seconds and then says "No retouchable areas could be found," even when the subject's face is clearly visible. This issue started immediately after updating to iOS 26.5.I have already:Updated Lightroom to version 11.4.0 Reinstalled the app Restarted my iPhone Confirmed I have an active Lightroom Premium subscription Tested on both Wi-Fi and cellular Tested Adobe's sample image, which also fails with the same errorSome photos work, while others do not, even though they were all taken on the same Sony a6400 camera with the same settings. Since the sample image also fails, I believe this is a bug with Lightroom Mobile or an iOS 26.5 compatibility issue.Could you please check whether this is a known issue and escalate it to the Lightroom engineering team if necessary?

LR Mobile (Android v11.4.1) is losing the synced Albums when on a cellular network. The synced images can still be seen in the All Images folder.  Interestingly, returning to a Wi-Fi connection, the Albums will eventually return. If I’m on cellular, I can get the albums to appear by logging out of LR Mobile, clear cache, and then going through two factor authorization to log back in. However, that is not sustainable.I verified that the setting for “Use Cellular Data” was still turned OnI had no issues with my 100 albums appearing in the LR Mobile Android app while on the cellular network prior to installing the v11.4.1 update.

The shortcut Command-V for pasting text no longer working for new album naming - edit paste menu item does work on MacBook Pro using Tahoe 26.5.1Also, having copied styles, it now only pastes to the first frame selected, rather than the complete range of images 

Thanks for fixing the bug with Adobe Lightroom 9.2 where “Export with Previous” (Ctrl/Cmd + E) wasn’t working.The issue is mostly resolved now. However, pressing Return/Enter does not complete the export to the selected folder in the updated 9.3 version. The key works as expected in earlier steps of the dialog (including Return and Tab navigation), but it does not submit the final export action.Regards

“Free space” is “Espace libre” in French. So on the screenshot, the good word is “libre(s)” and not “gratuit(s)”. “Gratuit” in this case is a non sense (it mean it cost 0$).

At some point over the past few months, Lightroom updated the Filename options on export and completely broke how sequential filenaming worked. I’ve noticed each of the following behavior changes.In 2025 and Prior:When exporting a sufficient number of photos at once, Lr would automatically add leading zeros. (EXAMPLE: If exporting at least 10 photos, the first photos would sequence as 01, 02, 03, etc., if exporting at least 100, the first photos would sequence as 001, 002, 003, etc.) When executing multiple exports at different times, Lr would recall the previously used filename AND remember what the last used sequence number was (EXAMPLE: After exporting 15 photos with the Custom Name - Sequence defined as “PhotoName” with a starting number of “1,” if another export was later begun, the options would be preloaded with “PhotoName” still in the Custom Name field and the starting number would update to “16.”Now, when using Lightroom, both of these behaviors are completely broken.No matte

I tried to export my photos from Lightroom, but I keep getting message "Some images were exported with outdated AI Settings". I updated the AI Settings from Photo, and then updated the AI Settings as what instructed from the forum I saw. But still error. I tried to to it on my phone, same image, no problem at all. But this message only appears when I export it on my laptop. Version of the app : Lightroom 9.0 Platform and OS version : Apple M1 Pro, Tahoe 26.1 Basic steps to reproduce the problem : Exporting the photo from PC, then Error Message Appeared, then updated the AI Settings Expected result and actual result : After updating AI Settings, same error message still appears

Issue: Search bar won’t find keywords in version 8 Version: Latest version 8 OS and version: macOS 13.5.2 Issue: To reproduce the issue; type a keyword name (tag) into the search bar. Press enter. Expected result: Lightroom should show only the photos related to that keyword Actual result: Lightroom makes the normal sound; however does show the photos related to the keyword search.   Note: I rolled back to version 7 and everything works as expected. Seems to only be a problem in version 8. Thank you!

In Lightroom mobile using the “add border and share feature” using the eyedropper to sample a color or using any of the preset colors - upon export a massive gamma shift and color shift is applied to only the border lightening it and desaturating it. I have tried many potential fixes and nothing works. This appears to be a color pipeline issue or something clashing with iOS? I’m not sure. But I am essentially unable to create colored borders that match the image now. There are no deeper export settings available to tweak in the “add border and share” dialog box. attached image: on the left is a dark red border applied > right is how it exports turning it light pink 

Hey Adobe Lightroom Community !    So, I've got this super annoying problem where my notifications inside the Lightroom mobile app just aren't showing up. It's been going on for like two months now, and it's happening on both my iPhone (when I had it) and now my Android phone. Super frustrating!   1. App Version: Lightroom Mobile App: Version 10.4.2   2. What Phone/OS I'm Using: Right now: Android 14 (on my Google Pixel) Before: iOS (on my iPhone 11 Pro Max)   3. How to See the Problem (Steps to Reproduce): Open up the Lightroom app (Version 10.4.2) on my Android 14 phone. Go to the in-app notification section (you know, where you see likes, remixes, all that good stuff). Have something happen that should give me a notification (like someone liking one of my photos, or remixing it, or if I get featured). But then... nothing new shows up in that notification panel in the app. Nada.   4. What Should Happen vs. What's Actually Happening: What should happen:

Steps to Recreate:     Select a Fish Eye Image  Apply Lens Profile  Turn Distortion control to +100  Select a Linear Gradient and draw on the image (it is easy to see if you hold down shift to ensure horizontal)  With Mask selected, grab either the upper or lower handle and increase or decrease the size of the gradient area  Note: There is a subtle rotation of the gradient clockwise or counterclockwise depending upon the direction of the drag.  Note: the upper or lower boundary of the gradient becomes discontinuousTested Win 10 (nVidia GTX 970 576.2 (5/19/2025)Make a linear gradient then resize it by a good amount. While you're doing so, you'll notice the whole gradient subtly starts to rotate. I don't think this happened before the recent LR update, but I could be wrong.   Running on Windows 11.   Editing to add info: This happens with all images when lens corrections are enabled with a profile selected, assuming the profile has

Using the Lightroom iOS app on an M4 iPad Pro. My device updated to Lightroom v11.3.2 today, since the new update the enter/return key no longer works with keyboard shortcuts. For example when copying develop settings. “Cmd+v” works to copy the settings, but enter/return no longer confirms the copied settings and doesn’t close the copy panel. The recent update says it has “improved keyboard shortcuts” but they must have introduced a bug which removed the return key’s function. 

With the April 2026 version of Lightroom (Assisted Culling Improvements), I found that once you enable stacking by time, the stacked photos cannot be unstacked. I never actually created any stacks; it created them automagically and now all my photos in stacks are hidden and cannot be opened, even though both Time and Visual Similarity are unchecked. This is using Mac version 9.3.

You can no longer tab between text fields when updating the Info fields or adding keywords. You have to manually select the text box and then type.

The recommended presets aren't loading anymore; it says they're being analyzed, but nothing happens. It used to work before—how can I fix this?
