I'm running LRC v13.3 on my Dell laptop (Windows 11) and shoot everything in RAW.  Denoise has historically worked well, but now when I select Denoise it won't show the "Enhanced Preview".  The preview panel turns solid gray and shows the instructions to click on the image to see the unenhanced preview.  If I click it shows the unenhanced and it's highly magnified.  If I click enhance it acts like if will go through the process but then just stops.  I've restarted LR and my laptop numerous times....no help. Any suggestions?

Möchte ich mehrere RAW dateien in LrC importieren und der catalog ist local und das ziel der RAW dateien ist ein NAS Share (Synology) bricht der Import ab...   Client MacOS 15.0.1 LrC 14.0.1 SMB share.

I get a "Try this again, network failure" every time I use generative AI in the Remove tool.   ** The fix is to relaunch the finder. **   This was a fix suggested to get AirDrop to work again. That fixed the AirDrop issue, and also fixes the "Use Generative AI" feature as well. Strange, but true.   Hope that helps anyone else having this problem   William   [moved from bugs to discussions according to the community rules - Mod.]

The situation is pretty much as the subject header lays out.I am in the process of moving to a new PC, and for several reasons my best option for the moment was to  move my catalog and related resources to an external HDD for acess on multiple computers. After moving, I have several of these yellow bars (see snip) that appear next to folder names as LRC spins up. The bars are not there on initial start of the program; they appear incrementally as the program runs through loading functions. They are only next to certain folders, the same folders each time; other folders on the same drive do not have these bars as shown.Running LRC 14.0.1, Windows 11, catalog currently on one of 2 externals that house my pics (yes, I know this is a vulnerability but it is for the moment what I need to do, drives are continuously backed up by Backblaze). I've googled this over and again and evidently am not hitting on the right search terms.

Bonjour,Je suis sur la dernière version de lightroom classic (abonnement mensuel). J'ai un problème d'affichage des aperçus, lorsque je fais un import avec génération des aperçus, l'import se fait mais pas la création des aperçus (blocage à 0% dans la barre des tâches LR).En revanche, sur ces aperçus qui apparaissent comme des rectangles grisés dans la bibliothèque, lorsque je clic sur développement, l'image apparait bien puis sont aperçus en dessous...si je développe plusieurs images, les aperçus des suivantes vont également apparaître...jusqu'à 5 ! Ensuite les premières aperçus se mettent à disparaitre... Tout disparait également si je redémarre LR. J'ai essayé de changer les paramètres graphique camera raw, de changer le profil colorimètrique de l'écran, etc. Rien n'y fait. Quelqu'un a-t-il déjà rencontré ce type de problème ?Je vous remercie d'avance pour votre aide.Emmanuel

Hi, I'm on the latest version of Lightroom Classic on M1 Mac with the latest Sequoia OS. Previously, on my presets that I created, I wasn't able to adjust the amount slider. However in the last few weeks, I've noticed that in the last few weeks I'm now able to adjust the amount slider on all of my Presets. Can anyone confirm that this has been part of an update? I'd like to inform the people who buy and use my Presets, that this is now a thing. Thank you. 

Can anyone take a look at these settings and let me know if my machine is the ptoblem with this new version or something else? Its been so slow lately its unbearable.

I have a number of images in Lightroom Classic that have white boxes for color labels.  I would like to assign this label to another image, but I can't remember how I did it.  

PHOTO #13 test photos in test folder. Then chose to import into l:data\onedrive\pictures\countries\united kingdom\kent\2023 as per photo #2   BUT When I click on Import yes they do place them into the correct folders BUT also display as seperate folders as in pic 3, OUTSIDE the top folder structure, at the top of the tree. If I go to delete the ones showing at the top of the tree, they also get deleted from the real folders.   Its been working fine for ages, but only just noticed this error.   I would appreciate your opinion.

Hi   I have a problem when scrolling photos in develop module in full screen.   When I scroll photos and stop to one particular photo then the rendering never completes, the photo remains blur. I tried bot with Graphic Acceleration set to ON and also set to OFF.   I do not notice this problem in Library module, only in developp module.  The only way to see the picture completely rendered is to press next button and then back button and then the picture is well displayed.   thanks Jules

Hi All,   It seems like I can't change shadows in quick develop (in the Mac version).  Why is this the case?   [moved from bugs to discussions according to the community rules - Mod.]

If I choose a mask e.g. subject and after that want to use the point color from the color mixer the mask menu closes and the point color uses the selected color of the whole picture instead of the preferred mask Any ideas how to solve this?Kind regards: Cor van Leuken LRC version 14.0.1Computer: iMac 2017Processor: 4,2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7Graphics: Radeon Pro 580 8 GBMemory: 64 GB 2400 MHz DDR4

  Posting a new request since the feature request link at : https://feedback.photoshop.com/conversations/lightroom-classic/lightroom-preserve-new-exif-231-tags-...    referenced in this discussion : https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/how-to-change-the-timezone-in-photo-metadata/td-p/6429833   appears to be broken at this point.   Per the discussion, Lightroom's behavior is to write OffsetTime in DNG files based on the local time zone of the PC.  As a workaround, I've used exiftool to overwrite the DNG file's OffsetTime with the correct timezone that the photo was taken in.  however, when I "update metadata" in lightroom, it ignores the offsettime that I set in the DNG file and writes it back to the PC's time zone, so I have to do it all over again.   If lightroom doesn't have a well defined way to set time zones, can it at least assume that the OffsetTime in the DNG file is correct and not change it?  Then fixing Of

I am receiving too many emails about posts I am not following (see screenshot).  A little while ago I posted here on the forum and clicked 'Email me when someone replies'.  This did not happen, despite replies being posted to my query. So I then went into my profile and clicked those notifications I wish to receive (see screenshot).  However, I am receiving a huge number of emails for posts I am not following! What can I do about this?  Is there something I have missed?  I know that the notification bell will show if someone has replied, but that means remembering to check, and could result in a delay in responding to someone who has kindly replied!  

I keep getting interrupted by a yellow rectangle asking if I want to regenerate previews for HDR edited images to render HDR in Library view. I’m given the option to regenerate or cancel. If I ask it to regenerate a task starts called refining Previews for HDR if I leave this going for 24 hours or so it stops functioning on the last time it said 1850 of 18390. My only option is to cancel it If I redo it the number 18390 does not reduce I’m on Lightroom classic 14.0 .1 and camera RAW 17.0  MY MACBOOK M3 IS ON SEQUOIA 15.0 .1  I have made many of the new HDR images Apart from this Lightroom seems to be working properly

I have LR6 on perpetual licence running on Apple IOS Sierra on a 2015 MacBook. I am moving to Apple Sequoia on a new MacBook which wont support the old LR6, so I need to subscribe to LRC. I want to ensure that all the photos (c150k) I have catalogued in LR6 come over in their existing folders to LRC. AND, of course, that all my edits come too. But as I don't use the cloud, I can't use the  'migrate' facility. So how do I do his? If I plug the hard drive where LR6 is stored - images, catalogues and edits - into the new MacBook with LRC installed, will LRC simply find them when I open it?

Hello...I am currently running Lightroom Classic version 14 (according to my computer even thought the top of the Lightroom window says 13.4) in windows.   I have been having an awful problem with images that I have previously down downloaded and edited reverting to their unedited form when.  If I go into a file I have edited a year or 2 ago and bring up and image I had previously edited all the edits are gone.  If I go into develop the edits are still there in the history but not applied to the image.  Once I click on the latest editing they image takes on the edits and stays that way.  Also, when I click on an image in the filmstrip in the develop mode it will not come up on the screen.  Have to go back to library to get the image to change.  Help!

Hello,I have seen in some older photo-folders that my photo-crop selection is still present but the check box 'Constrain to Image' (Develop Module) is gone. No idea how this could happen. The LrC (14.0.1) included utility 'Copy Settings' has a 'Crop' section with two related check boxes but a 'Constrain to Image' check box is missing. Is there some other option to automatically apply this setting to several photos?Thanks!MichaelP.S. If there is no option to do so, please introduce one.

Over the years I have been dragging raws out of lightroom for storage after editing. For some reason I'm not able to do that after an event I just came from. All the files are (found) in my library there aren't any missing. I cant find the reason its not working, please help!I usually drag them to a folder on desktop or hardrive but won't work.   [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.]

1) Do you also connect to an external monitor?2) When using just the laptop standalone, what size is your screen and what do you think about it?I previously had an XPS 13 - portability was amazing but it was also underpowered. I upgraded to XPS 15 mainly because of discrete graphics card support.Now I am going to be getting a new macbook, but I'm honestly very conflicted about the 16" (very similar to my XPS 15") or the 14".I don't need to lug it around daily, nor carry it often in a backpack. But I imagine the 14" is more coffee shop-friendly, maybe more lap-friendly? But is the screen too small to work within lightroom and photoshop?

Help - I have just bought, at some expense, the book Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom Classic for Beginners.  The link for the lesson files is:  adobepress.com/PhotoshopLightroomCIB2022  and it does not work!  This book was ridiculously expensive and I will probably have to return it but if any one can help explain how to access the lessons, that would be great.  Many thanks
