Edits in mobile won't sync to LR Classic macbook

I have my photo files on my macbook in LR Classic. They are synced to the cloud and from the cloud to LR Mobile. I use a Samsung S22, andriod.

 

Sync to the mobile (with edits on the macbook) works just fine.

 

However, when I edit the photos on my mobile in LR mobile, the edits won't sync back to LR Classic on my macbook. When I look at the photos on the macbook, they are all originals, unedited.

 

It all makes all the edit functions in LR Mobile quite useless.

 

Is there a solution for this???

 

Cheers, thanks, 

jocko

Hey @jlhammar. Welcome to the Lightroom Classic community. I'll need more info to help you figure this out.

 

What exact version of Lightroom mobile & the Android OS are you working on? I'll share some directions to begin troubleshooting this.

  • Log on to Lightroom Web (https://lightroom.adobe.com) to check what images are synced to the cloud.
  • Apply edits on Lightroom Web to a set of photos & check if the edits are synced to the devices.
  • Enable 'Use Mobile data' in Lightroom Mobile settings if you're not using Wifi.


Let me know how it goes. Thanks!

Thanks Sameer! It all worked after I logged out and then in again 😅. Should have tried it from the start.
