Book Module in Lightroom 6.14

I'm using the latest purchased version of Lightroom (6.14) under W11. I've been having problems with the "Book" module since December. At first, I noticed strange behavior. When I assigned photos to the collection used for the photo book, other photos sometimes appeared, sometimes several. Then the module refused to cooperate completely (currently 105 pages). I can't add or delete any more pages. At first, it looked like the commands were being executed, but after leaving the module and returning, the old state was restored. Same after saving. I optimized the catalog, deleted previews, and reinstalled Lightroom 2x. Nothing changed. Adobe Support doesn't want to help anymore and referred to the current software, or rather to the community. Does anyone have similar problems or other ideas?

    I wish I could help you. I think the best thing to say is realistically that the number of people who can help with Lr 6.14 issues is small and getting smaller over time, and the number of people who can help with Lr 6.14 Book Module is probably 10% or less of those people. And let's face it, some parts of Lr 6.14 just don't work right any more (maybe the Book Module is one of those parts)

     

    I agree with Adobe Support, the easiest way to get moving again is to use the current Lightroom Classic 13.1.

    Hi all

     

    I have just managed to send a book to Blurb from Lightroom Classic. 

    However I cannot find the Book module that was in LrC in the Lightroom V8.0. Is that correct? Has it been removed? Do I need to use LrC to create Photobooks? (or something else...)

     

    Thanks Peter

    Lightroom v8.0 does not have a Book module of any kind, never has!

    Yes you need Lightroom-Classic v14 for the Book Module.

    COMPARE LIGHTROOM & LIGHTROOM-CLASSIC FEATURES

     

    ( As this forum thread began asking about v6.14, note that v8 is NOT an upgrade for 6.14. It is an entirely different (Cloud based) app. See the comparison)

    Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.1.1, Photoshop 27.3.1, ACR 18.1.1, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.2 .

    Today switched to the actual version. Installation and import of the catalog was no problem. But still the same problems....

    What else can I do?

    What "actual version" do you mean?
