Questions

Hi --- I am using 13.5.1 on my Mac Mini M1 with a 1 TB SSD.   The available space on the drive decreased from 400 GB to 100 GB quickly.  I recall having the same issue about a year ago.   Possibly related to a Forced Quit of  LR which created a very large backup file on the SSD.  I was able to delete the backup. I realize this may not be enough info for a diagnosis.   Please let me know what additional detail is needed to find a solution. Thanks!     

Just updated to LRC 14.0 and wanted to test Apple DNG denoise, something I've been waiting for for so long. And immediately noticed a color shift, well visible in this screenshot (I hope). Sky in the left (original) photo has more blue tones, denoised version is more grey. 

Please add Generative Fill and AI Denoise/Sharpening to LRc as soon as possible.....even as previews!  I had been anticipating these, particularly the sharpening and no need for DNG file and was disappointed when I didn't see in the LRc announcements.  This is GREAT!!!  Can't wait.

LrC 14 introduces an option to display HDR edits with the dual monitor view. However, if the 2nd monitor does not support HDR, Lightroom will display the HDR version anyway and rely on the OS to handle it, rather than displaying the built-in SDR downconversion. This often results in substantial clipping and color shifting, and is also somewhat useless since this isn't a representation a viewer/client would ever see in most cases. Disabling HDR in library will make the 2nd monitor properly display Lightroom's SDR conversion, but now you can't view HDR in the library on your HDR-capable main monitor! Ideally, Lightroom Classic should be able to detect that HDR is only enabled on the primary monitor and display the built-in SDR conversion on the 2nd monitor view System details: Win 10 24H2, Nvidia RTX 3080 10GB, driver v565.90

this might be a bit of a long shot, but hey - lets try. I shot a timelapse sequence using holy grail method. I ran those dng files through LRTimelapse 4.8.3 (a little outdated, I know). I use LRT to write xmp filesto balance exposure spikes. I do not use keyframes to adjust the look. SO more like a technical grade. Back in LR Classic I read "metadata from file" for all photos. After waiting for thumbs to refresh you can see that you have an equalized image sequence in LR. Now i want to export dng with those xmp changes applied. Like how I see it in the UI. But that does not work. Reading that exported sequence into a different application and comparing it to the original seq shows, that no changes are applied. Any idea if that can be accomplished?I want to stay in dng to bypass color management found in other file formats. My goal is to export exrs in a secondary step from another application. 

I do not like or appreciate the new LrC Catalog upgrade screen. Not one bit. Supposedly an improvement in workflow. In fact quite the composite. This starting at v14.0. I see a programmer design change error as a bug. Oh I just know this will get relocated to Discussion, As Adobe can do no error. Adobe, when you make a design decision this bad, it is a bug. (Yes, they moved it to Discussion while I was editeing, thank you not) Issues: Forces a backup I do not choose to createForces a backup name I do not desireForces a backup location on the same hard drive as the working catalog.Does not change the name of the working catalogDoes not allow for the user to select a name change for the new (upgraded) catalog File structure before upgrade: Upgrade screen presented:File Structure post upgrade:  And that Folder the backup gets placed in:  Backups should not be placed in the same hard drive as originalsUsers should be able to decide whe

J'essaie de faire une capture en mode connecté mais lightroom classic ne trouve pas mon appareil et il est bien dans la liste pris en charge. J'ai un Canon T7

I did the upgrade to 14.0 for Lightroom Classic and no it will not finish the backup when exiting. Get the message during the compression that it can't finish it. Tried twice and on different drives with plenty of space left. I am always signed in as administrator. Any thoughts Adobe?   Richard richard@mackphoto.com

Is it possible to apply a preset to a mask selection?

Since two weeks or so my always stable Lightroom has become very slow. More specifically, it works ok for the first 20 min., and then becomes so slow at any operation that I have to restart it. Nothing has changed in the system (maybe except regular Windows patches). Latest NVidia drivers didn't help.  Not sure how to reproduce this so that you can see the slowness. Lightroom Classic 13.5.1High end PC (i7, 64 GB of RAM, SSD)Windows 10 22H2, version 19045.5011.

Saludos, desde hace unos días cuando uso lightroom y la reducción de ruido por IA que siempre iba bien, ahora muchas veces me pone un pixel grande de color rosa en la fotografia y no deja corregirls ni revertir. Alguien sabe a que se debe?orregir ni revertir, se pierde la foto por que se estropea. Ya no se que hacer para que esto no ocurra.

Na versão 14, quando coloco alguma mascara no fundo por exemplo, e regulo as cores e mando sincronizar , nao sincroniza ae tenhoq ue ir em foto por foto e pedir para atualizar, na versao antiga não tinha esse problema. Quando peço para sincronizar poucas fotos 5 por exemplo tem hora que sincroniza, mas quando peço mais fotos não sincroniza, tenhoq ue fazer foto por foto, afff Ryzen 3800X, 64 Ram SSD + HD, windows 10

MacOS 11.3 Big SurLightroom Classic 10.4MacBook Pro 2013 I've created a small test slideshow three 1080p videos and a few images.  I use the built in Widescreen template for the slideshow.  I am expecting that an exported video of the slideshow would show the 1080p videos filling the screen. When I play the slideshow, the videos are surrounded by black areas instead of being displayed full width.  When I export the slideshow to video at 1080p, the videos appear about half the size of the 1080p video screen, surrounded by even larger black areas than when the slideshow is played live.  If I use the standard Export... feature of Lightroom to export one of the videos to 1080p H264, it fills the 1080p export screen as expected.  I've attached screenshots below of the various views of the video being played and exported. There is no difference if "Zoom to Fill" is chosen, and no difference if the GPU is enabled or disabled. How can I get the vide

I cannot seem to erase a simple black text (without a background) on many png files I downloaded from Kittl.  All I want to do is just erase the text on one image in the Develop module, and then use the "Sync" button with all of the images in the Filmstrip at the bottom of LR to replicate the same task.  I've tried a few different approaches to do so without any success for something that should be easy.  Can anyone help me?  (I think Adobe added some features I haven't used before such as this, and now I'm lost.) Thanks!

I see with the addition of Content Credentials to LR Classic, there is still no way to link one's own website to the list of "Connected Accounts."    Isn't your own website the ultimate verification of authenticity - or do we need to rely on big social media?   Some people don't have social media accounts.   Please consider (again!) adding a custom URL feature to the Connected Accounts.   For security concerns, it would seem as simply as adding a custom meta tag to the connected website for identity verification.

The ram start to increase when i use mask and dont decrease unitul i restart lightroom manualy. Its close to immposible to work.

Good morning,there is a problem with the automatic detection (loading) of the Nikkor lens profile Z 24-120 mm. This lens is in the list of Nikon lenses supported by the program and it is possible to load the profile of this lens when selected from the list.  For other lenses this problem does not occur and profiles are loaded automatically. It is annoying when working with different lenses in one session.

Issue: I have a set of Northern Light photos and want to create a panoramic. This works flawlessly with the untouched photos. However, they have a ton of noise, but when I use the AI noise reduction on them, the panorama creation does not work anymore. It is not able to stitch them together and fails with 3 out of 7 photos. Lightroom Classic Version Number: 13.5.1OS Version Number: Windows 10Steps to reproduce:use night time photos and try to stitch a panoramic, once without and once with AI noise reductionExpected result: It should work the same with both types of imagesActual result: It only works with the original raw

Hi,On mac and classic LR. I went into my [I think only] catalogue and I think I opened a new smart folder by mistake and now I cant get back to original one with ALL my photos in! Help please!

Make tethering work for Nikon cameras WITHOUT using Rosetta mode. Apple Silicon has been out for a long time now and it's crazy we still have to use Rosetta to tether, slowing the app down. 

On all my compressed DNG files I am seeing "denoise is not currently compatible with this photo format" Anyone else?

Hi All,Have been using DXO Pure Raw2 as a plugin to LR for sometime. After processing the image, a dng file would always come back to LR in the Develop Module and I would keep working as usual. Now the image imports as usual however, the LR import window now comes up and I have to press either the Done or the Cancel button to get back to the Develop Module. What is happening here and can I fix it as it's annoying and just an extra step for nothing.Using Windows 10Pro.Thanks for your assistanceCheersTony

Hallio,Ich habe Lightroom 6 auf 2 Geräten aktiviert. Beide Geräte wurde in der Zwischenzeit getauscht ohne, dass ich mich auf diesen Rechnern abgemeldet hatte. Nun lässt sich Lightroom auf einem neuen Rechner nicht aktivieren, da die maximal zulässige Anzahl von Computern verwendet wird (siehe Bild).Leider geht das ja nicht mehr...Auch auf Adobe ID-Seite​ finde ich keine Option die alten Rechner zu deaktivieren.Telefonischen Support gibts ja nicht. adobe.com/getsupport hilft auch nicht weiter, da die Optionen zum Deaktivieren der Rechner in meinen Kontoeinstellungen nicht vorhanden sind.+Wie kann ich mein Lightroom auf meinem Rechner nun aktivieren?Vielen Dank für die HilfeIvo Falke

This post started out as a question about the error message that I get when I try to use DENOISE on my raw files.  The error message says: "Denoise is not currently compatible with this photo format".  I then attached 2 photos (a CR2 and a DNG) to the post and hit the POST button.The post won't go through because the 2 photos I attached are flagged as non-raw photos (see the error message below).  What in the world is going on ??

Issue: Let's say I have 5 images that I want to stitch to a panoramic, but first I want to reduce the noise in them. The AI noise reduction created a dng file and creates a stack of the original and the noise reduced file. When I now select those 5 stacks and try to start the panorama module, it starts 6 actions at once: In the first five actions, it tries to stitch each stack alone, creating 5 new extremely distorted images. Only action 6 opens the panorama module. This behaviour is new and I never observed it before. The workaround is to open every stack and select only the noise-reduced images. Then it works as it should.   Lightroom Classic version: 13.5.1 OS: Windows 10   How to reproduce: Create stacks of images that you want to stitch to a panorama. Select stacks and open the panorama module. What happens: Some mysterious parallel stichting processes start that are not hepful at all What should happen: Start the panorama module and use only the top photo of each stack.
