Questions

When I go to use the AI Denoise function, the preview window just has a grey screen instead of showing the image with denoise applied. After I click enhance, Lightroom Classic says there has been an unknown error and denoise could not be applied. The next screen says that there has been a GPU error. I've successfully used the denoise feature once before (a few days ago), so not sure what could have changed to cause the problem. It appears to be similar to this post, but I do not have a Nvidia GPU.  Lightroom Classic version: 13.4 [ 202406181129-60d181b7 ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: enOperating system: Windows 10 - Home Premium EditionVersion: 10.0.19045Application architecture: x64System architecture: x64Logical processor count: 8Processor speed: 1.8GHzSqLite Version: 3.36.0CPU Utilisation: 5.0%Power Source: Plugged In, 17% (Low) (Charging)Built-in memory: 8039.2 MBDedicated GPU memory used by Lightroom: 969.6MB / 128.0MB (757%)Real memory available to Lightroom:

I have just started playing around with face recognition.  My library is now over 100K.  Many of these are my kids sports events.  Not surprising I have captured many faces of people I don't know.  These strangers keep showing up as I create my face indexes.  It would be nice to have a key word to tell Lightroom to ignore these faces.  I started giving them the name of 'unknown', but I fear this is going to just bog down Lightroom's search algorithm over time. Does anyone know of a clever solution to this issue?

I recently updated my CC & LR Classic and now my catalogs appear to have lost all of their information. Obviously I still have all of the images however there is a fair amount of editing/retouching I have done that I may have lost. Is this something anyone else has experienced? Does anyone know how I could recover my catalogs as they were?   

I use Lightroom Classic's face recognition extensively across several catalogs for tagging people. It's worked relatively well, and continues to do so, EXCEPT for photos imported from my iPhone.  LR still scans for faces, but the vast majority just have a question mark, instead of suggested name. I'm dealing with several thousand images a month, so not having this function is an extra layer of cumbersome. It may be a simple fix, but I cannot seem to figure out what the variable is... ...and here's the thing: it seems to work on photos from OTHER people's phones. In other words, if someone else sends me an image from an iPhone 8 or iPhone 14, those images will auto fill with suggested names. The problem seems to be indigenous to my phone (iPhone 11 Pro Max), but I cannot figure out what it is.  Also, it does not seem to matter whether it's HEIC or JPG.  Thank you for any suggestions or advice! Lightroom Classic 13.2Mac Studio M1 Max, 32GB memory,

Recently I got the "! - File Could Not Be Found" warning in Lightroom, so I did a quick search and relinked the photo. BUT ... it was the wrong photo with the same name!How can I relink the photo to the correct photo?

Hi there,Didn't get any replies on this in the LR Forums, so will try here. 🙂I received 300+ photos to edit. Most are crops so resolutions are low.ENHANCE does a great job of giving me some meat to work with. Next comes the sharpening and noise reduction and I've been flipping the Enhanced DNG's that need that into Topaz Sharpen Ai as JPEGS to do it. Once I'm happy with those, I delete the DNG's which are pretty large files so I just have the jpgs left which I can further edit in LR then export for the client.During my workflow I compare some of the results, so I select the original, go into Compare View then use the arrow keys to compare it to the Enhanced and the Enhanced Edit (from Sharpen Ai). etc.The problem in Compare is there seems to be no way to lock the RELATIVE Zoom.The LOCK option causes them both to zoom the same amount relative to their individual original size ...so no locking of the 'relative' zoomThe SYNC option causes them both to pan in sync but if the Enhanc

Bonjour,    Je recontre un soucis avec mon logiciel installé il y a 1 an et demi, sur mon Mac. Il clignote à l'ouverture et à chaque fois que je fais une action.   Si vous avez déjà solutionné ce problème, qu'avez-vous fait ?   Merci par avance de vos réponses précises.

Pourquoi une fois les retouches terminées dans le module développement, la photo est de moins bonne qualité dans la bibliothèque et même chose une fois exportée?

Lightroom classic will not open for me tonight!! the whole icon just disappeared so i redownloaded the software. then everytime i try to open it, it says not responding on my mac. HELP! I have so much editing to do. 

I find that my HDR edits to my photos will not export no matter the file type. I've tried viewing on different apps but none have the HDR edits on them. I'm on Mac so I airdropped the images to my iPhone 12 which apparently has an HDR display, but the HDR edits are also not there.  Here are my edits and what I want to export in Lightroom:For some reason the screenshot doesn't even capture the HDR. I'm seeing more of a blue sky.And this is what I get when I export PNG (with HDR output checked): And with JPEG:Please let me know what I am forgetting.

Is it still possible to us scripts in Lr Classic?

I intend to buy one or the other but as I read at the links below, it seems Samsung broke the RAW support.It's not clear to me if RAW and now ExpertRAW are the same, being the latter a (Samsung) substitute for RAW.https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-ecosystem-cloud-based-discussions/raw-photos-issue-on-s23-ultra/m-p/14008014#M82020https://community.adobe.com/t5/camera-raw-discussions/samsung-s24-ultra-phones-don-t-do-raw-anymore-it-s-not-adobes-fault/m-p/14443437 Thank you. 

LR Classic on Windows 11 with a 4K high DPI monitor. Most of the UI scales appropriately, but in survey view the ttributes (e.g. stars) below each image are too small to click or easily see. [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.]

Hello, I bought some presets, and they all showed up but two. I already have checked in preferences to show the visibility of incompatible presets. Not sure what to do 😞 it's the Vintage Sepia 1 & Vintage Sepia 1 Grain

Hey, I'm not sure if this is intended functionality but it's not desired, at least for me.Take an image into PS for some editing which might include a re-size/crop that creates a slightly different aspect ratio due to rounding (for the sake of testing just crop the image square). Save the image back to LRc and then change to a new image and "settings > paste settings from previous" At this point LRc will crop the image to match the aspect ratio of the source image even though it has not been cropped in LRc and does not indicate it's cropped either with the thumbnail badge or dot under the crop tool icon.Attached video shows this in action, source image is square but wasn't cropped by LRc.Should LRc be automatically cropping images to match the aspect ratio of images it hasn't cropped?

Hi there!   I keep getting a notification pop up when I open Lightroom - "your catalog will be upgraded in order to access the latest changes in this newer version of Lightroom Classic."   It will then show:   Current Catalog as: Lightroom Catalog-v12.lrcat Upgraded Catalog: Lightroom Catalog-v13-4-4   The odd thing is that my actual catalog is -v13-4-3. I try to choose a different catalog and select "always choose this catalog", but still coming up with the same error after closing and then opening Lightroom again.   Does anyone have any recommendations for how to fix this? I just updated the catalog too, so I shouldn't be receiving this error.  

For some reason, my LIghtroom window has this grey bar with  camera data in it. I can't figure out how to remove it. Please advise!

When importing images into LR classic, the program does the saturation itself, and the images remain dark. How to prevent it?

Greetings In moving photos from my Apple Photos library to Lightroom, is there a way to import/move them directly from one library to another? Right now when I want to do it, I export photos from Apple Photos, import them into Lightroom, and then delete them from Apple Photos so I don't have any duplicates. For the most part, I use Lightroom to edit/organize photos and then Apple Photos to sync across devices Thanks!

I use Lr and Ps on both a windows and iMac computers. I use Dropbox as my "source" of photo location and an external hard drive as the "install to" location. Why am I not able to just ensure I have internet connection for Dropbox access and move my external hard drive from one computer to the other and have it seemlessly look and function the same? How do I arrange that/set it up?

Ma question concerne les paramètres prédéfinis Lightroom. Je ne les retrouve pas !Beaucoup ne m'intéressaient pas (trop d'effets... spéciaux), je les ai supprimés.Mais maintenant je n'en retrouve plus aucun 😞J'ai aussi regardé dans les dossiers Application Support etc...Où les télécharger sur le site d'Adobe ?Merci pour votre aide !

Bonjour,Mon  Lightroom 6, (CD + code d'activation) ne veut pas s'ouvrir en mode non connecté à internet, (en voyage , hors réseau, etc.), alors qu'il fonctionne très bien à la maison via le wifi. Que faire pour solutionner ce problème? Merci déjà.

Cuando cierro y vuelvo abrir el programa parece solucionarse, pero no puedo estar haciendo eso todo el tiempo.Alguien que me asesore?????

What is going on with Range Masks in the latest update to Lightroom Classic. I used to use Luminance Range Masks all the time to modify dark or light parts of the image, sometimes in conjunction with a gradient mask. It worked really well.   Now when I try to do the same thing with the new updated Mask tool, I get a horrible effect where the afffected parts of the image seem to get crushed and all the pixels compress towards the same value. It's awful.   Am I doing something wrong? Is anyone else experiencing this?I'm running Lightroom Classic 11.0 with Camera Raw 14.0.      

I don't know where to start! I'm running Lightroom classic latest version on a surface studio pro 32 gig ram, i7 11th gen, GeForce RTX3050 GPU, 1T SSD internal drive, Windows 11 and it's like I'm using a Sinclair spectrum 48K. It's so slow I just can't work on it. I can't even move between images without a long delay. There are no sync errors yet it is constantly attempting to sync my latest folder of images From a wedding and only managed one fifth of the images before it has got stuck again. This keeps happening. I've not had this problem with previous versions. I just don't know what's going on! Anyone know where I can start?!  thank you   Thank you.
