Lightroom ecosystem (Cloud-based)

 Lightroom on Windows 11 Adobe Lightroom has a major bug, as noted in previous discussions. This issue is severe and ongoing, it can exceed 100% and even reach into the thousands. At the time of writing, it has surpassed 2,000. I know the AI edits are minor because this comes from a user preset I created that deselects the 'remove' settings. Although I’d hate to reset the edits on this photo and start over, since the AI update doesn’t resolve the problem, resetting seems to be the only logical solution. Adobe this is completely unethical to offer software at full price with a bug that prevents users from exporting final edits.

Request option to store my photos locally instead of in Adobe Cloud, who else likes this idea?

Issue When I use the "Edit in Photoshop" command from Lightroom, Photoshop launches as expected, but then I receive the following error message: "Could not open Photoshop"The file never opens in Photoshop. My Setup Device: Microsoft Surface Laptop 7th edition (ARM/Snapdragon X Elite) Operating System: Windows 11 Home/Pro ARM64 (latest version) Photoshop: Latest version from Creative Cloud (ARM version) Lightroom: Latest version (cloud version, not Classic) Creative Cloud: Up to date and signed in What I Have Tried Photoshop and Lightroom are both up to date. Creative Cloud is up to date and I’m properly signed in. I’ve logged out/in, reinstalled the apps, and restarted the computer. I’ve tested exporting images as TIFF/PSD from Lightroom and manually opening them in Photoshop – this works. I've checked that both apps have full file/document access in Windows privacy settings. I’ve tried changing the file format and target path in Lightroom’s external editing p

I have had my lightroom/adobe account for a little while but have been unable to access it as my laptop has been having issues. Just got a new one and trying to set everything up on it. Any help will be appreciated. 

Hi There,  I haven't been able to find a way to contact Adobe Support through the Contact Us link and hope the community can help here.  (https://helpx.adobe.com/ca/contact.html) (1) I am new to Lightroom and had installed the Lightroom Photo & Video Editor app.  Prior to installing, I checked the list of In-App purchases available as follows:In-App PurchasesPremium Monthly 100GB$4.99Premium Monthly 100GB$4.99Lightroom plan 1TB$9.99Premium yearly 100GB$49.99Premium Yearly 40GB$19.99Premium monthly 40GB$1.99Premium Monthly 100GB$7.99Premium yearly 40GB$19.99Premium Yearly 40GB$29.99Premium Yearly 100GB$39.99 I had hoped to subscribe to the "Premium Yearly 40GB" as I am new to this and don't want to commit to a 100GB plan yet.  It seems that the app, once installed, only allows me to select one of these: "Premium yearly 100GB" and "Premium Monthly 100GB".  Is this expected or is there a way I can change my plan to the 40GB one?

Hi,I'm trying to download my Lightroom photos from Adobes cloud storage. I'm using the Adobe Downloader app Version 1.0.5-20220504.116-64f8d2b. I can log in using my Adobe ID. I logged in, and it displayed the correct amount of photos on my account; I picked a destination folder and started downloading. The app had lost connection a few times with the server (I checked network traffic for the app), so I rebooted the app, resynced it, and then continued downloading where it had left off. However, it reached 16% and is no longer syncing. I rebooted the system and app and logged back in and out, but it's not budging. Any help in troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all, I am using the most recent version of Lightroom on an Android device (Samsung A52). I have just upgraded to Lightroom Premium in order to edit and export videos. When I try to export, save or share any edited footage I am given a "Couldn't Complete Export" error message with no further details. This happens every time. I have tried the following fixes, with no avail. 1. Clear the Cache2. Re Log-In3. Uninstall & Reinstall I am able to export the videos via the online editor on PC but I predominantly use mobile so this is not suitable for my purposes. I have plenty of storage on my device and a stable internet connection. Any advice? If not I shall have to cancel my Premium Plan and find something else. Thank you!

Hallo zusammen,ich teste mich gerade durch die aktuelle Version von LR Mobile auf meinem Tablet durch und bin auf ein Problem gestoßen (für mich).Ich schiebe unter LRC die Bilder in eine Sammlung, diese werden mit LR Mobile synchronisiert - funtioniert perfekt.Wenn ich jetzt in der Galerie die Bilder ansehen möchte, will LR Mobile die Bilder nachladen. Da ich im Tablet keine Sim habe, funktioniert das unterwegs nicht. Kann ich irgendwo einstellen, dass er die SmartPreviews gleich standardmäßig beim synchronisieren mit  lädt? Ich kann ja nicht jedes mal nach dem Sync neuer Bilder alle im WLAN durchscrollen, damit die Vorschauen geladen werden.Für Tipps wäre ich Euch sehr dankbar.

My computer has limited space, so I deleted a folder which was backed up on my hard drive. Now I can no longer download or edit these images in photoshop. I wan't to relink this folder to my hard drive, but I can't seem to find a way to do this. There is not right click and find folder option like there is in Lightroom Classic. 

Hello,I am trying to get into the swing of using Lightroom CC (which pales in comparison to the Lightroom Classic, IMO). I keep finding solutions to most of the problems I have had, however this particular one has me stuck.Anytime I hover over a feature for a moment, an animated tool tip pops up. The pop-ups get in the way of my editing and are very annoying as they don't go away for all too long. This is really slowing down my productivity and of zero use to me since I already know how to use the features. I cannot find any way to make them go away when they pop-up, let alone disable them all together. Every search online only brings up the solutions for Photoshop, which the option does not appear in Lightroom CC.Any help would be greatly appreciated otherwise I will have to abandon Lightroom CC as these are just all too distracting.Thanks in advanced!Take care,-Justin

Hello,I've noticed a change in the search behavior in the latest version of Lightroom (not Classic). Previously, I was able to paste multiple photo filenames (e.g., IMG_1234 IMG_5678) into the search bar, and Lightroom would successfully find all of them. Now, when I do the same, it returns no results unless I search for each filename separately.This has significantly slowed down my workflow.Could you please let me know if this change was intentional? And is there a way to restore the previous functionality?Thank you in advance!

Hello-I am writing as I have a problem. In 2020 I was new to Lightroom and I shared an album with someoe I had taken photos of. They did not download the photos and I cannot find them on my aqccoiunt. I now think it is possible I had a 2nd account? Is there any way of retrieving  using the link? Any help appreciated,Ger 

Hi there, I have come to the understanding that I am not on top of my backing up of photos game. 😞 My phone got stolen & I have lost enourmouse amount of pictures taken over the last 2 years. Now in the recovery process I was hoping that my edited pictures would be attached to my light room account, I do have the paid subscription.  However after logging in, I discovered I was mistaken.  1)How does it work to back up file with light room, is there a way to access previous edited / uploaded content.  2)& then how is the best way to go about preserving pictures, I dont love the cloud - but are starting to feel like that's the only option ? All school hard drive backups, obviously only work when you religiously get to them. Hope you'll have some insight:) (Samsung user) 

If i am. Buying premium in my mobile will that also support in my laptop?

Hello,    I am unable to upload photos scanned from film to the lightroom community. All photos are .Jpeg. If I try uploading it on the phone, it states that "This eductation account does not have the permissions" and on the computer, it states "Error 403 An unexpected error occured"   Is there a way around this? 

Olá!Utilizo o lightroom.Eu possuo um problema no armazenamento de fotos que uma opção me ajudaria muito! Desconsiderar a diferenciação de acentos. Eu coloco muitas fotos com títulos longo e às vezes copio e colo alguns títulos que acabam vindo de digitações alheia com e sem acentos nas palavras.Mas o mecanismo de busca diferencia elas e as vezes não encontro o que procuro. Por isso gostaria de uma opção que pudesse desconsiderar isso!

Hi, I've Lightroom on my iPhone set to auto-import from my camera roll. This works well. I've purchased addidional Adobe Cloud storage so I have a copy of all my photos in iCloud Photos and also in Lightroom via Adobe Cloud. It's great to be able to access the same photo on Lightroom on my phone, iPad, and Mac, via the cloud. No problems with that and it's working very well. Except... when I get a new iPhone (typically every year, because I like new toys) the Lightroom app on the iPhone decides to auto-import EVERY photo from iCloud Photos again. It doesn't actually import them to be clear; it tries to, which means it downloads it from iCloud, works out it's already in Lightroom, and moves on to the next one. But with 60,000 photos in iCloud (and growing!) this process takes a very long time. And requires the iPhone to be left plugged in, with the screen on, for a very long time.   I gave up with my iPhone 16 Pro last September, and this issue means I'm using Lightroom l

I just install my adobe light room on my mobile phones ios and android.I notice that it auto upload all the photos thats on my mobile phone to cloud. I want it to auto upload only those i set as favorite or i set into a certain tag / label.Otherwise i am overwhelm by all the junk photos shared by others in whatsapp also got uploaded for nothing. I want this experience to be for photograhers only and not all other irrelevant junk images from screen shots to photos shared by groups that i join in my whatsapp.Its very messy right now.
