Hello, Since updating to version 13.5 today from the previous version, I've been encountering a frustrating problem.As background information, my catalog is very large. I've noticed that loading the metadata takes an extremely long time (see Screenshot 01).This was never an issue with the previous version. Due to this never-ending loading process, my color-marked pictures aren't displaying their colors properly (see Screenshot 02).Additionally, in the left folder view, albums no longer show the number of pictures they contain (see Screenshot 03).Another issue is that my "View Options," which are set to display the filename, ISO, or focal length (and can be switched using the "I" shortcut), aren't showing anything or switching as they should.   Is this a known bug? I really don't want to reset all my preferences, as support often suggests.   [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.

Since the update to Lightroom Classic 13, whenever I edit a photo in Lightroom Classic with an AI mask, e.g. person, background, background blur etc, and sync it to lightroom, the photo does not display in Lightroom with the Lightroom Classic edits at all.Photos with non AI asking applied, e.g. object, brushes and linear gradients DO display with the appropriate edits in Lightroom when synced.I have been on line with Adobe numerous times and they are useless and don't admit that there is an issue, even when I clearly show them my processes, both with AI masking and non AI masking applied and show them in Lightroom the relevant photos not displaying edits and displaying edits.Is anyone else having this issue? This worked properly with AI edits applied in Lightroom Classic Ver 12.0.I have updated to the latest versions of Lightroom Classic August 2024 update and Lightroom August 2024 update.Can anyone help please?

I have recently done an update on my Lightroom and since the update it will not preview the images. When I create a new folder and select the new folder it shows all the images  once but once I have clicked import the task bar trys fetching previews but locks up. the images are imported into light room but till I select one image, which I do not know what it is till I select it, it appears and I can edit. I have tried removing folders and re-importing to no success. Previous folders where I had no issue the previews have vanished, /i makes no difference if images are raw or jpeg, can anyone help   [Mod: Changing title]

I'm confused. The R1 and R5ii were announced on same day, the new update mentions the R1, but not the R5ii. In the long list of supported models, it shows the R5ii but the fields are empty. Did they miss something in this update?

For some reason Lightroom just hangs when i click on the icon. So I updated just now and its still hanging. I open task manager and its there but no launch.Anyone with some help on this please.Thanks

Just upgraded to a new Windows 11 computer.  During the move to the new machine Lightroom (V13.4) grabbed a bunch of folders (such as My Documents, My Videos, etc) that shouldn't be in Lightroom (I have no idea why these folders ended up in Lightroom - but that is beside the point (obviously I did something screwy).  To get rid of those extra folders  - I used the command "Remove From Lightroom" on all the folders that shouldn't be in Lightroom.  In the process ALL 30,000 photos that were supposed to be in Lightroom were removed as well.  How do I get the photos that should be in Lightroom BACK into my catalog?  Is there such a thing as an undo "Remove from Lightroom command" ???  A few points... The images still exist - they just are no longer in Lightroom. (if I somehow get them back into Lightroom - will I lose all my edits and collections?I do have a recent back up on the current V 13.4 catalogI have a catalog from a prior version of Lig

Hello! Ça fait déjà un moment que j'ai remarqué que mon iMac (2019) chauffe beaucoup (~60°c) dès que j'utilise Lightroom Classic.. Un peu embêtant quand on est pro! J'ai pas mal augmenté la mémoire cache Camera Raw (50go) + cache vidéo (10go).Dans la mesure du possible pour soulager un peu le Mac, quand je travaille sur LrC, il n'y a que lui d'ouvert... Mais ça devient quand même problématique toute cette chauffe! D'autres personnes qui rencontrent le même problème ? Adobe ou autres, quelles solutions pour y remédier? Merci d'avance! 

I've been working with Nikon support on an issue with "high" ISO noise in my RAW images from the Nikon Z8 camera. They had me import these images using their NX Studio and standard MacOS file copy to a local drive. WHen viewing the unedited RAW images in NX Studio or directly from the memory card using MacOS Finder, the images look as shot.When importing into LightRoom Classic or Lightroom (current versions auto-updated via creative cloud) the images are initially rendored in the Library multi-image view as expected, but then each one starts to get covered in a 30% "screen" or dark overlay as if they were shot in darkness. This introduces a lot of luminous noise into every image.For images shot at ISO 64 or 100 I don't notice this as much if at all, but as soon as I hit 400+ (typicaly ISO 800) I start to see it, and above ISO 1000 it is killer.This has bee going on since day one of my Z8 and I thought it was my camera, but then we tested wtih NX Studio and no problem. I know

Lightroom v 13.3.1 on Windows 11 I have searched for answers to this, but seems it's not a common problem. Happens every time.  I changed the motherboard, processor and GPU a few weeks ago in a big upgrade on my PC. All was working swimmingly and lovely.  Then, for some reason, overnight, Lightroom has started taking forever and an age to open. I open it, the first frame of the app appears, then it hangs for a while. Then the splash screen appears, then disappears, then nothing happens other than the small blue circle spinning. Nothing loads.  It then says Lightroom is unresponsive and stays like that. For about 4 mins!!! It then appears, finally, but takes a while to load all the images. Once up and running, it's relatively smooth, but after about half an hour of editing, it starts to significantly slow down.  My computer runs from a 1Tb SSD M.2 drive with two others as dump drives. It's now running an MSI Z790 motherboard with BIOS co

When I'm in Lightroom Classic and choose to use the Attribute_Virtual Copy filter I get this message "No photos match this filter". I use this all the time and just noticed it stopped working yesterday. I, at first, thought it was due to this being in a new folder but, when I went to old folders and tried the filter it didn't work on them either. I rebooted the Mac and tried it again but, this filter still doesn't work. After doing all my "post" on a shot, I always make a virtual copy of it, so when I am done working on photos in a folder I can just apply this filter and "export with presets" the result.

"I'm having trouble displaying star ratings for my photos in Lightroom Classic. Please guide me on how to fix this."

Hello Lightroom Community,I'm experiencing a persistent issue and need your help:Lightroom unexpectedly closes while I'm editing.After this happens, the catalog file doesn't show up on my external drive (WD My Passport 4TB on Mac OS).Setup:Over 2.5TB of photos on an external driveMultiple catalogs on different drivesThis has been happening on and off for over a year. I've spent 9 months organizing and editing these photos, and I'm worried about losing my work. I do have back up for the files but not the new Cat that I upgraded.Questions:Why does Lightroom keep closing on its own during editing?Why does the catalog file disappear from my external drive after these incidents?How can I prevent this and recover my catalog?Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I have a problem with LRc on my Macbook Pro M1 (32 GB RAM/ 2 TB SSD): everything is running extremely slow. Changing from one photo to another takes e.g. about 30' in the "Development" module. The slowness applies to almost everything. It was not there from the beginning, but gradually increased within the last few months...   The Adobe support is underground: first one has to talk to a robot until the robot decides to give over to a human. The humans are little better, as they give general place paste/copy suggestions and refer to websides that are acessible anyhow, but all these suggestions do not help. Needless to say they fade away shortkly afterwards... . No advertisement for the expensive subscription 😞   I read here in the forum that the slowing down of LRc seems to be a common problem with Mac OS, but could not find a real solution. I wonder whether someone has found the problem and how to fix it. Below the system info...   Wolfgang Lightroom Classic vers

Hi, when I try to export the color profile generated by Xrite Color Checker Camera Calibration, I manage to visualize the profile from the image that generates it, but when I copy and paste the processing settings in another image, the generated profile does not appear. I uninstalled and reinstalled Lightroom Classic, but the problem is not solved. The path to the folder where the profile file is located is C:\UsersNameUserAppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles. Can you help me? Windows 11Lightroom Classic v. 13.5Camera RAW v. 16.5

Seit gestern 15.08.24 (letztes Update) lässt sich Lightroom Classic nicht mehr starten !!! 

I store my photos on an external hard drive. My catalog was on C drive. I moved it to the same directory in a new computer. However, the .lrcat files appear as folders and not a clickable file. If I excutre Lightroom, it creates a .lrcat file which, when I click, does not recognize any folders in the left panel and only suggests that I import the photos. This obviously will cause 15 years of hard work to be lost. What have gove wrong and how can I fix that? BTW - the old computer shos the .lrcat files correctly and when I move them to Dropbox for sncronization with the new machin they still look okay. But the new computer doesn't recognize them as clickable .lract files in Dropbox either. Your help will be grealty appreciated.

My system is Windows 11 with all the latest released updates. No beta code.       I had an interesting issue with LRc today. I could do everything except export to a file (e.g. jpg).  The error was To cut a long discussion short, the answer was that it doesn't like my use of the SUBST command to shorten and manage different directories.   The actual error was "The file could not be written (1)" followed by the name of the RAW file (even though I was trying to write a JPG).   Example: If I have the command: SUBST Y: c:\user\alans\synologydrive\pics Y:\Fuji\writablefolder is no good - I get an error in LR but C:\user\alans\synologydrive\pics\fuji\wrtablefolder works just fine.   Photoshop doesn't have this problem.   I think this is a bug. Every other app I have works fine using the Y: drive.   Cheers   Alan   [moved from bugs to discussions according to the community rules - Mod.]

Hi all,I am having this error with JPEG mini plug-in. It started yesterday out of nowhere, I have formated the PC and still having the same issue.JPEG mini outise lightrrom is working fine with no issues, it's just the plug in. Maybe some issue with LR? 

Put this as a bug because it seems to be but not sure if it is or if I've changed something? I used to press Cmd+E (Mac OS) when in Lr to open a Canon CR3 Raw in Photoshop. In the last day or so, when I press that Cmd+E it switches from Lr to Photoshop but the file just does not open at all.  If I right click and select open as Smart Object, it works fine and opens the CR3 as smart object. If I manually drop the CR3 from Finder into Photoshop it opens Camera Raw and then I can edit the file. All my apps (Lr, Photoshop & Camera Raw) are up to date according to creative cloud. No updates to install.I've not updated my Mac OS for a couple of months so it's not an update to that which has caused the issue. Any ideas on how to get back to being able to press Cmd+E and it opening the CR3 as a layer in Photoshop like it always used to?

I don't see any difference in my image when I view the softproof version using a vendor specific ICC file vs the original display.  However there is a big difference in the historgram.  Shouldn't I see a difference in the image when I look at the softproof version?

Hello, Since some time already, I've noticed that when using Lightroom Classic (macOS M1) and just clicking on the pictures, it automatically does an editing (very lightly, probably from Camera to Adobe settings or similar, I cannot really tell).However, this is annoying since when I do edit a picture and then I use the filters based on edits, I cannot distinguish those pictures that I indeed edited vs those that I just open to check. As I said, this was not happening before. Is it something I can deactivate somehow? Thanks for your help.

Bonjour,  Je me permets d'écrire ici car j'ai une question toute bête mais je n'arrive pas à trouver une réponse à ma problématique ... Je suis très adepte d'utiliser les différentes touches du clavier pour utiliser lightroom notamment pour le tri des photos. Je passe les photos une à une à l'aide des flèches du clavier et je fais un premier tri pour supprimer les photos floues, ratés, etc ... en appuyant sur la touche supprimer du clavier puis avec les flèches "supprimer du disque". Depuis que je suis passé sur mac les flèches ne permettent plus d'atteindre l'option "supprimer du disque", ça reste bloquer sur "retirer de lightroom" ce qui m'oblige donc à utiliser ma souris ... Avez-vous une solution à ce petit soucis svp ? Je vous remercie par avance pour votre aide !  Pierr
