Hi! When using lightroom I import photos from folders in my OneDrive, if I delete them within Lightroom does that also delete them from my OneDrive files?
LR CC will not load my local images, it does load the cloud. i use windows 11, i tried uninstalling and installing, reset my laptop, but lightroom just shows the blue spinning circle / loading circle
I have RAW files saved to my harddrive with the corressponding XMP files. I exported the files from Lightroom CC: originals plus settings. How do I import them with the settings again into Lightroom CC? I tried to import the presets before and after. Nothing worked. I found this thread, but I don't get the settings applied automatically. If I have thounsands of fotos a manual way won't work: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-ecosystem-cloud-based-discussions/bulk-import-xmp-sidecars-with-raw/m-p/10420465#M16580 Thanks so much
Out of 135 pictures in my travel album, I edited and want to include in a printed photo album about 30. When I click the filter and then colored tab I used to identify the 30 I edited and want to use, I no longer am able to sort pictures, i.e., move them around and put them in the order I would like them to appear in the printed album. I am able to do a "Custom" sort if the filter is off. Any advice?
I am looking at several Lightroom albums that have many files but I have not been able to find the documention that shows where the source file resides?Please advise.
Hallo Zusammen, beim Aussortieren von Fotos nutze ich die Fahnen (Markieren / Ablehnen) in Kombination mit einem Filter auf „unmarkierte Fotos“, um nur noch offene Bilder zu sehen. In der Vergleichsansicht (zwei Bilder nebeneinander) verschwindet ein Bild sofort aus der Ansicht, sobald es markiert oder abgelehnt wird, da es den aktiven Filter nicht mehr erfüllt. Dadurch bleibt nur noch ein Bild sichtbar und der Vergleich wird unterbrochen. Um weiterzuarbeiten, muss man den Vergleich manuell neu starten. Wenn in der Vergleichsansicht ein Bild markiert oder abgelehnt wird, sollte automatisch das nächste passende Bild (gemäß aktivem Filter) in die Vergleichsansicht nachrücken, sodass der Vergleich ohne Unterbrechung fortgesetzt werden kann. Dies ermöglicht ein deutlich schnelleres und flüssigeres Aussortieren großer Bildserien und macht die Vergleichsansicht in Lightroom (Cloud) effizienter.Würde mich über eine Umsetzung freuen.Danke und viele GrüßeTom
Hello, I am having issues exporting a number of AI edited photos. The system glitches and asks to update the AI. I click accept, and then it is "stuck" at 0%. Version of the app - 9.1Platform and OS version - MacOS Sequoia 15.6.1Basic steps to reproduce the problem - have tried 10 different times to export large amounts of photos and small amounts, still no difference. Expected result and actual result - I need to export these files as JPEGS for this couple. Can someone please assist? This for a couples wedding album. - Seton
Ich gehe meine alten Fotos durch und würde gerne einige davon ausdrucken, resp. die Qualität verbessern. Ich habe gelesen, dass man Fotos mit Lightroom hochskalieren kann, leider finde ich das im Lightroom (Webbasiert, 9.1, auf Windows 11) nicht. Ich habe natürlich bereits alle Updates gemacht, die von der Creative Cloud vorgeschlagen werden. Danke für eure Tipps!
I’ve recently started using the Adaptive Color profile as the default base for most of my images. While building a modular preset toolkit (e.g. curve-only, sharpening-only presets), I noticed consistent color shifts when applying these presets to new images, even though Profile, Color, and Calibration were not selected when saving them. After moving to desktop and inspecting the preset XMP files, I found that presets authored on images where Adaptive Color was already applied contained non-zero Camera Calibration values (e.g., BlueHue, BlueSaturation, etc.), whereas identical presets authored from a neutral-origin image did not. These calibration values are not visible or editable in Lightroom Mobile/iPad, but they persist and affect color when the preset is applied elsewhere. I’m trying to understand whether this behavior is expected or an unintended side effect of authoring presets under Adaptive Color. Below is an example from the .xmp file for a preset that I authored which
I am posting here because after more than a month of ongoing issues, I currently have no reliable way to reach Adobe Support, and the support process itself has now become the main blocker to my work.ContextI am a professional photographer working with the Lightroom ecosystem (Classic + Lightroom cloud/mobile). Lightroom is central to my livelihood and to active client deliveries, including a book project that should have been completed weeks ago.Over the past month, I have been in repeated contact with Adobe Support regarding a serious Lightroom workflow failure. During this time:My case has been reassigned and case numbers changed multiple timesContinuity has been lost repeatedlyI have had to re-explain the same issue across different agents and departmentsMost recent failure (and why I’m posting publicly)Today, I was given a scheduled callback window (1–3 PM GMT+3). I was available the entire time. No call was made.This was not a missed call on my part — Adobe did not call.After the
Hi, I'm trying to export all of my originals, about 10,000 images in my Lightroom library. I've tried many times but Lightroom consistently fails to complete the export for one reason or the other. I do a Select All > Export on all photos or even just a large album and after a while it fails to complete. I am exporting to a local hard drive and have the latest Lightroom version and macOS version on my Mac mini desktop. I've also tried accessing my library via Creative Cloud but it does not show up there. Thank you.
I would like to request Wall Masking tool on Lightroom for real estate that can detect wall and adjust lighting, collor ect... and sky replacement. [Moved to 'Ideas' by moderator, so other people can vote on it as well]
Tonight its not able to export a silly little photo, that cant be even 5mb. Internet is working great on other websites and apps. This is such a creative-flow killer. I just want to turn of my computer. Adobe is always *** in one way or the other. Its stupidly expensive, and the roll out tech like its silly, yet their basic functions are amateur at best. Even this bug report is bugged. I understand there will be snags, but why put out broken software out there and charge for it? [Removed profanity]
Dear Lightroom Cecosystem (Cloud-based) Community, I am baffled by a current need and thought that perhaps someone here could help. I have an external HD with hundreds of folders, each corresponding to different events. Each folder contains many image files for each event indicated by the folder: For example:*External HD**Event 1 (folder)***Event 1 (image files)**Event 2 (folder)***Event 2 (image files)**Event 3 (folder)***Event 3 (image files) I'd like to find a method by which to quickly create Albums in Adobe Lightroom (currently using v9.1) that correspond to the folder names in my HD. Without this, I have to create each album manually and import the images into each newly created album. This is extremely time intensive and it seems like there should be an easier way to migrate a folder/image structure on an external HD to the folder/album/image structure in Adobe Lightroom. I've done a bunch of research but can't seem to find a solution. One option p
Hi all, I am not a pro. I cannot update anymore some apps of my Creative Cloud because my system is "not compatible" (mainly Lightroom classic and Ligthroom for could). My computer is no more compatible with more recent versions of mac OS. I use a 27" iMac, quite powerful for my personal use (48 Go RAM). I bought it in 2017, and run Ventura 13.7.8. I do not intend to replace it; it works flawlessly, and is still faster than more modern computers for stacking astrophotos. Would the unability to update infringe my possibility to keep using the version of LR I am still able to run in the future ? Best regards,Stef.
A bit of an issue preventing me from fully switching to Lightroom CC for my workflow is that the Import screen in Lightroom CC (at least on Desktop) doesn't provide full-screen previews as Lightroom Classic CC does. That forces me to preview my images in Finder or somewhere else, write down the files I want to import, and then switch to Lightroom CC to import. Is there any chance we can get full-screen previews in Lightroom CC?
I tried to solve the problem now for several hours and am tiered of not getting any solutions. Lightroom just crashes on startup with the EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION and basically says he cannot work with my gpus, because i have an rtx 4060 and i9 with uhd graphics build in. I asked AI first to help fix the issue but I did everything he told me to and still nothing is working. I already tried to uninstall and reinstall drivers, the program, creative cloud. Disabled the intel gpu, deleted cache and reset preferences and restarted my computer several times, checked my system files. I hope someone can help me and my pc runs windows 11 btw. And if someone can tell me where to find crashlog files and not only the crashlog in the moment it crashes I can also post the crashlog here.
I'm primarily a Lightroom Classic user but use the cloud-version on my ipad so I also. have it installed on my Macbook. Today I discovered that "Community" and "Learn" takes up a lot of screen space on the left side panel. But I can't find out how to remove these from my left panel. I use Lightroom for my own photos and have no interest in using it for browsing other peoples photos. Do I have to go back to a previous version or will this bug be fixed?
Hi.My memory card got corrupted and I can't access it via android.My lightroom mobile app was moved to it since I was running out of internal storage.I've used up my 40GB quota so I wasn't able to sync new albums to the cloud.Thing is that I can see memory card and all of its files on my PC so my question is can I somehow move files from memory card back into internal storage so that my Lightroom Mobile app can work again with all of its files restored since I plan on upgrading my plan so that I can sync it all up in the future.Is it possible to restore app back into internal storage of my android phone?
Trying to Archive Locally 7,695 images, always gets stuck at the final 10%.Restarted multiple times, and result is the same. Export to local SSD, NAS, External Storage.Lightroom v9.1 20251204-1659-82a72fdmacOS 26.2
I have a catalog of 50,000+ old (but still need to be retained) photos that I would like to tag as such so they don't get accidentally used inappropriately in new promotional efforts. But Lightroom cloud will only let me add a tag to 5,000 at once. Is there a way around this to get all 50k+ tagged at once? It's incredibly tedious to tag the first 5l, then try to find where the next 5k group begins.
Ok so I'm having an issue when I try to crop images in Lightroom (Not LRc). It's not smooth, in fact it's almost unusable.My PC specs are as follows:64GB RAMi7 ProcessorRTX 5080 16Gb2.5 Tb disk spaceLightroom also seems to want to continully download the presets, even my own!I've tried turning the GPU accelleration off but no difference between off and Full accelleration.I really need this to work properly. I've even tried reducing the size of Lightroom on the screen but that makes no difference either. Other ai processor/GPU intensive apps work just fine.All help appreciated.
I am have a serious issue with Lightroom on my mobile device. All the preset collections that I previously created or saved from the community have disappeared, and I am also unable to see my previously edited photos. This issue happened after an update that I was prompted to do on 11th December. After going back into the app after the update, everything had disappeared. Details:Device: Samsung S21 FELightroom Version: 11.1.1Problem:All my custom presets and preset collections are missing. Previously edited photos are not visible in the app. The issue occurred after the last update done in the app on 11th December 2025.Already done: I have checked the recycle bin and all folders and sections within the app, but nothing has reappeared. I have spent a lot of time creating these presets, and I use them for my work and photography. I would appreciate your urgent help in recovering my presets and photos. Thanks.
Every time I copy and paste an operation into a batch, Lightroom crashes. That is, the pasting stops at a certain number and simply does not continue. [moved from bugs to discussions according to the community rules - Mod.]
Several functions don't work for me in Lightroom when masking:- Background- Object- Person Masking- SubjectIt's frustrating not being able to use all the features when I have a subscription. I have a PC.
