Questions

I can still print from Photoshop to the Epson 3880 as usual and from other non-Lightroom programs, but not from Lightroom.. I am running Windows 11 and LIghtroom 15.1., build 202601141538-a543b18a.. When I try to print to the Epson printer from Lightroom, the printing dialog box come up, but there is no spooling and it seems to abort prematurely. I reloaded the 3880 drivers, but no change. Would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks.

This was a thread that Mr Flohr had acknowledge matched an internal bug, but now it’s completely gone. Adobe released a bug fix update this month yet the bug remains. So I don’t know what is going on here but it’s pretty frustrating and insulting.  Even with “Analyze photos of selected source...” disabled in catalog settings, and with the AI-assisted culling panel hidden, the message “Enable AI Analysis in Catalog Settings to use Assisted Culling” appears ON TOP OF THE CURRENT PHOTO while in develop mode. Obviously if you use Lightroom as your primary professional editing software, having a message appear ON TOP OF THE PHOTO which, when dismissed, simply reappears often after only a few seconds, is not ideal. This happens most frequently when command-L is used to enable and disable filtering. I’m on the most-recent version of lightroom and the most-recent update of macos Sequoia. I am not going to waste my time deleting settings, reinstalling, disabling plugins, all of that stuff - I h

Yesterday I took my first photos with my Sony Alpha 7 V, and before importing them into Lightroom, the images still looked normal—just as I had seen them in the camera. After the import, I noticed blue clipping. I then opened the image in Sony’s Image Edge software, and the RAW files do not show this clipping there. I’ve attached a screenshot—one from the Sony program and one from Lightroom using the beta profile. Could I have overlooked some setting, or could this actually be caused by the beta profile?On the left side, the image is opened as a RAW file in Image Edge, and on the right side is the latest version of Lightroom using the beta profile. Both images are unedited.Node: These are Not Highlight/Shadow clippings. Its the Harsh Blue thats overlaping and somehow not showing correctly.Node2: The Raw File when looking at it in the Sony A7V is looking fine colourwise! 

I don't know how this works.  I need to talk to someone!!!  This kind of support is awful!!!   Apparently Adobe no longer wants to talk to anyone and doesn't want anyone to report bugs.   I'm running LR Classic version 14.3.1.  I moved some photos from one directory (folder) to another.  That worked.  But now when I try to rate them with stars, for example pressing "3" for 3 stars, it complains that metadata is corrupted with the little exclaimation mark in upper right corner of thumbnail.  It has options to repair (like copy from disk), and none work.  The only work around I found is to remove from LR,  delete the sidecar file, import back into LR, and edit it again in the new directory.    I did not have this bug until I upgraded from a previous version to 14.x couple months ago.  I ran into this bug a in earlier version of 14.x, but couldn't figure out what happened, so upgraded to 14.3.1 and same bug.  I need to

I have made many Blurb books over the past (10?) years or so but recently the quality of the books has become really bad. I’m constantly having to contact their customer service to have books reprinted because of errors (like lines, misaligned color plates, dark images (same file on cover printing a stop darker than in interior of book, second printing of books completely different color to first “test” printing etc) or even just the books getting crushed in their packaging before they get to me?Why does adobe continue the relationship with such bad quality? Does anyone have any recommendations for other book printing services? (I have used MILK in NZ who are really good but very expensive)?

After clean install of Win11 and reinstall of LRC and Photoshop, the icon for .XMP file is gone. Not a very big problem, but I was used to that icon, and find it a little confusing with both .XMP and .acr showing just blank sheets. Any solution?

Trying to import files from Sony A1II, and Lightroom classis says “preview unavailable for this file” and will not import. Lightroom Version 14.0.1Camera Raw Version 17.0 Creative Cloud says “up to Date” Googled and tried what I could find

When reviewing my photos for editing I select multiple images and rate them with stars (1, 2, 3, etc.) but after I rate multiple images at the same time Lightroom jumps back up. It’s very annoying because then I have to go back down and continue reviewing. Can you fix it, please?

Canon R6mii does not work with tethered shooting with LrC 15.1.1 running on macOS Tahoe 26.2 in combination with Firmware camera firmware 1.6.0.I have tried reset of setting on my camera also USB connection mode. If I set to import/remote it will only shows a computer symbol and charging.

I became aware of a security update for Lightroom Classic yesterday evening and set it to run over 12 hours later it’s still not 70% downloaded. Is this right or do I have an issue.It’s on an M4 mini only 6 months old. 1TB drive capacity and 32GB RAM. Thankfully I’m an amateur photographer not one who has deadlines to meet.  

I have noticed that LrC fails to create panoramas when, at least to me, it is obvious where the matches are.  I have attached a screen shot of the the photos and the proposed Merge, in 150628 and 105728 respectively below.I have a similar result taken at a beach where again it seems obvious to me, but the merge doesn’t include all images, see 110215 and 110427. 

 I took a photograph of people riding on a bus, from the outside of the bus. As expected, there are window reflections on it. I tried to remove the reflections in LRC but it did not remove any of them. Moving the slider to -100 shows a black image, indicating LRC did not find reflections. I opened the same image in Camera Raw, and there the reflections were mostly removed. Moving the slider to -100 shows what Camera Raw detected as reflections. I don’t understand what is going on. Can you help? I am including relevant screen shots: Original Image, LRC 100 Removal, LRC -100 Removal, CR 100 Removal, CR -100 RemovalOriginal ImageLRC 100 RemovalLRC -100 RemovalCamera Raw 100 RemovalCamera Raw -100 RemovalMy system info:Lightroom Classic version: 15.1 [ 202512101606-1bb801a8 ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: en-USOperating system: Mac OS 26Version: 26.2.0 [25C56]Application architecture: arm64Logical processor count: 10Processor speed: NASqLite Version: 3.36.0Adobe GSDK Version: 1.4

Vorrei sapere quali sono i problemi di qualità di questa foto

I have around 200 images where the originals are missing but I have decent smart previews available.I fully understand that previews are not raw files, I just want to export the previews as files (in the highest possible quality), then reimport them incase anything happens to the previews database/cache. How do I export the previews?Whenever I try, the folder is empty and see errors that originals are missing. Have tried ‘Original’ and dng Have tried selecting and exporting preview images, and exporting as a catalogue.Any help much appreciated. Cheers

I used to use two different fonts, colors and text sizes in the identity plate, after the update it only shows one font, singular color and all in the same size.   On the edit screen it looks like it looked before and should look.  

Hello, I’m having issues exporting some specific files from a catalog in Lightroom Classic.I’ve since upgraded to the latest version and the issue persists. The export hangs and never finishes. (Maybe related: if i try to create virtual copies on any of those files i get an internal error)Extra details: The original file is jpg. It is on an external ssd drive.Other files from same storage / folder   work just fine.What i’ve tried:Upgraded to latest version of Lightroom.Disabled GPU.Disabled plugins.Test Catalog integrity.Reset all edits to the file.Cleared Cache (hope i did this correctly)Tried to export to different format (didn’t work)Tried to export to other locations (didn’t work - not a permission issue)If i copied the original file to a different folder and imported that folder in the same catalog the export worked, but this is not a scalable solution.

With an upgrade to version 12.1 LR has become painfully slow to the extent that it cannot be used. It takes around 50sec to start, 20-40 sec to open Preferences, 20-30 sec to go from photo to photo, tethering maybe does 1-2 photos than hangs, etc.When LR is started it literally draws the tools pallete one by one - each one takes like 3-5 sec. Happened with upgrade. Nothing was installed (nor software nor hardware) in between updating from 12.0.1 which ran normally to 12.1. Ok first to mention what I´ve already tried: - reading all the threads about this in the forum and tried all the solutions like:- turning GPU OFF: no effect (might be even slower) - absolutely latest version of GPU drivers (tried Gaming and Studio edition of drivers), Windows updated- resetting the preferences (manually and automatically, deleting old pref files, RAW defaults, etc) - all plugins are disabled (at the moment Mogrify is ON but tried with that one OFF also) - turned the antivirus and malware protection O

Running LrC catalog from USB drive (Samsung P9 1TB) where I have all images and the catalogue file (latest version as of today). The anytime the crowd strike fancon scan triggers LrC will freeze with error saying there has been issue accessing the catalogue file. This makes LrC completely unusable.

Hello everybody,Currently I plan to update my MacBook and would like to get some recommendations / feedback from you. My current setup is 15-Inch MacBook Pro (2017) with 2,9 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 (Radeon Pro 560 4GB) with 16GB Memory & 512GB SSD, macOS Ventura 13.7.8. Main camera is a Canon 5D Mark IV (30 Mega Pixel 6720x4480).I run Lightroom Classic 14.5.2 and Photoshop 27.3.0 and Apple Photos. Currently I consider the 14-Inch MacBook Pro with 1TG SSD in these options:M5 Chip with 10‑Core CPU, 10‑Core GPU, 16-Core Neural Engine and 32GB MemoryM4 Pro Chip with 12‑Core CPU, 16-Core GPU, 16-Core Neural Engine and 24GB MemoryBoth options would cost 2.549 Euros Potential updates for the M4 Pro Chip version:From 12 to 14-Core CPU, from 16 to 20‑Core GPU, 16-Core Neural Engine would be additional 250 Euro (Number of Core CPU + 16% / Number of Core GPU + 25%)From 24GB to 48GB would be additional 500 Euros My questions would be:Is it better to spend the money on a faster processor (P

BonjourComme décris dans le titre, je ne réussis pas à importer certaine photos qui ont été prisent avec un IPhone. Ce sont bien des jpeg. Et après 2022 je peux toutes les ouvrir. Je parle que des photos issus d’Iphone. Toute les autres photo prisent avec un reflex s’importent facilement. Quand j’essaie de les importer, je sélectionne le dossier, je vois bien les vignettes de mes photos, mais quand je clique sur importer, il ne se passe rien , je suis obliger de cliquer sur la croix pour arrêter le processus. Je joint 2 copies d’écran , la sélection et comment est l’écran bloqué. Et une photo jpeg que je ne réussis pas à ouvrir pour exemple.Version 14.0.1 la version 15 n’est pas compatible.Merci d’avance pour votre aidePhilippe Hauray 

I've just taken out a Lightroom subscription.The version of LR Classic available is 14.0.1 which I have installed and migrating my old Lightroom 6 catalog fails:Any suggestions?

Je développe mes photos sous lightroomC  avec l’utilisation d’un profil que j’ai crée.Je synchronise ensuite des collections avec lightroom. J’ai du importer le profil que j’ai crée sous lightroom également.Lorsque je synchronise avec Portfolio les photos ne sont plus du tout conforme à ce que je vois sous lightroomC et sous Lightroom et je ne trouve pas de solutions. Savez vous pourquoi ? Je vous met un exempleSous LightroomC Sous Lightroom Sous Portfolio  

I am using a Hasselblad X1D II camera with a Hasselblad 35-100E lens. I find that although in filter Lightroom Classic can detect that the images are captured by XCD 35-100E lens, in lens correction tab in edit, when set to default or auto, it will result in no profile and can’t automatically find profile. However there is a Hasselblad XCD 35-100E profile in the list. I need to manually select it and sync across my photos. I’ve tested this behavior in Lightroom Classic 15.1.1 on Windows 11 x64 24H2.

Have been using LRC for more than a year with the same laptop system running on Win Home 11 (25H2). After update version to 15.1.1 in Jan 2026,  constantly experienced system crashed after opening LRC.Tried to disable the GPU processor and update the NVIDIA driver to the latest version, even reinstalled LRC again, unable to resolve this issue. Noticed, working on LRC after each reboot, it becomes lethargic and ultimately crashed out. A search from the internet, found someone having the same exact issue, managed to stabilize the program by reverting back to LRC 15.0.1I’ve no choice but to give a try by uninstalling the 15.1.1 version and reinstalled back 15.0.1, will monitor the condition. Do hope this issue can be resolved as soon as possible, it really a nightmare with no confident in using the software.
