Hi, I just installed Lightroom Classic 13.3.1 on my laptop (OS Windows 11) and I cannot get access to my local adjustment brushes.  I added the brushes by going to Preferences>Presets>Show All Other Lightroom Presets>Lightroom>Local Adjustment Presets.  I dragged and dropped my brushes (.lrtemplate files) to the Local Adjustment Presets folder.  I then restarted LrC, went to my masks, clicked the brush tool and there is no pop menu to select my saved local adjustment brushes.   On the Preferences>Preset page I tried a variety of clicking and unclicking different boxes for “Show Partially Compatible Develop Presets” and “Store presets with this catalog.”  I’d click the or unclick the boxes, restart LrC and nothing changed.  Another weird thing is my Preferences>Presets page isn’t fully visible.  Near the end of the page where I should see buttons to restore different options, but the page cuts off where the Restore Loca

Hallo,Ich nutze Lightroom Classic für meine Bildbearbeitung und im Nachgang Photoshop. So sind meine Arbeitswege.Im Herbst habe ich mir einen neuen Rechner zugelegt. Leider gibt es seit längerer Zeit Probleme zwischen LrC und meiner Grafikkarte, zumindestens vermute ich das aktuell. Wenn ich den Grafikprozessor auf automatisch oder auf benutzerdefiniert einstelle, stürzt mir LrC ab und das bei minimalsten Anforderungen. Es stockt, regler sind kaum noch zu betätigen bis es dann komplett abschmiert. Schalte ich die Verwendung vom Grafikprozessor aus, funktioniert alles einwandfrei.In Photoshop habe ich alles auf höchstleistungen laufen und ich habe Null probleme.Hier meine PC Daten:Prozessor: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 8-Core Processor, 4.20 GHzArbeitsspeicher: 32 GBGrafikkarten: 24GB XFX Radeon RX 7900 XTXAlle Programme sind aktuell, ebenso alle Treiber.Ich bin ziemlich verzweifelt, da ich mit meinem Leienwissen eigentlich der Meinung bin, dass mein Rechner das locker schaffen müsste.Liebe Grü

Since uploading LRc 13.3, the app always presents the same image in Library fit mode.  The image is one that was edited several days ago and never changes, even though I've edited hundreds of images before.  Previous behavior was to open in Grid view in the last folder or collection I was editing.  How can I fix this. Windows 11 Home 23H2Build 22631.3672

Hi, I recently updated my Lightroom Classic to version 13.3.1. When I updated I lost all of my presets, so I immediately uninstalled the version and reinstalled the old. Later that day, my computer died and did not back up my catalog. Now my presets are gone everywhere. I reinstalled version 13.3.1 trying to see if they would reappear. I have the show partially compatible presets checked and looked through every folder. Any suggestions? Thank you!

virtual copies are created spontaneously 

Can anyone give me a solution to a problem I've got in Lightroom Classic? I had a very large folder that I imported into LR but some of the files failed to import. I then did a second import of the rest, but now only the ones from the second import are showing. The first lot are definitely there and they show in the Catalogue under "All folders" but not under the folder itself. I'm working on a Mac.Thanks in advance!

I'm planning to import my Apple Photos library (~20k photos) to LrC on an iMac. I understand that there are ways to transfer the face recognition data from Apple Photos when doing the import (e.g. using Avalanche), but my question is whether this is a good idea. It seems like an obviously good thing to do, given how much effort I have expended in making my Apple faces data complete and accurate. Also, I have around 500 unique, named faces in Apple Photos, so at a minimum it would save me from having to name them all again in LrC. On the other hand, I'm not sure how LrC will use the imported Apple faces. Will LrC effectively treat them as manual face detections and hence as "truth"?  Or might LrC try to modify the imported faces based on results from LrC's own face detection/recognition algorithm? I assume that LrC will at least use the imported faces to train its algorithm when looking for new faces in existing and new photos. Other info that may be releva

I'm wondering if it's possible in Lightroom Classic to see whether, for a given synced image, the full original file or just a smart preview lives in the cloud. At present, I only know how to check this in LrC/LrW/LrM (looking at images one by one, or filtering by Synced from Lightroom Classic). Is it possible to see this status in Classic? -- MacOS 14.3.1; Lightroom Classic v13.2

HiI am using Lightroom classic Ver 13.3.1 and it is really slow to start when opening, around 2 minutes before the screen is functional. I am using a 17 inch HP laptop 8 months old ,it has 32gig of ram terabyte hard drive (SSD) and Intel iris XE is there any way of sppeding lightroom up, once it is running it is fine but just getting to the start screen takes an age. I have also noticed that if you move to the top menu,s it is slow. EG Preferences. I have used it with the graphic card enable and disabled no difference.Using photoshop is fast and I have other Photo progs and they run very fast but lightroom is a total pain.Any help will be really appreciated, thanks

Al aplicar desenfoque de lente, aparece "error inesperado, por lo que la solicitud no se ha podido completar"

I am relatively new to LrC, but I have used it about 20x to edit raw (Lumix S1). I have a color space issue where my purple goes blue. I tried to keep it in there with grade tweaks, but it turned blue in JPEG (delivery format). What can I do to hold the purple?

Hello there. Late last week my LRC (current version 13.2) started crashing at opening. I have done a clean reinstall to no avail. I use a MacBook pro with the M1 Max chip and Sonoma 14.4.1. Problems started right after upgrading to the new version of Sonoma. Thank you in advance for any help

Since upgrading LrC to 13.3 the printer function isn't working correctly.  For example, there is no pre loaded paper size for 4 x 6 inches, nor an option to print borderlessly.  When I set paper size in "custom size" to 4 x 6 inches, with cell size 4 x 6, I still get a slightly cropped image with a small about 1/8inch  border.  Scaling down or up from 100 percent does nothing.  Only way I can print correctly is to export the image and print it using the mac OS print functions.

Been waiting for lightroom to restart during the catalogue optimisation process for about 10 mins now.Looking at task manager lightroom is still very active in background and accessing one of my HDDs. See below.What is it doing? The HDD being read is just where photos are stored, catalogue is on a seperate ssd (L) which  back ups are written to as well .Is it safe to shut down the PC during the period  Im waiting for lightroom to relaunch itself?If this is normal behaviour?, shouldnt there be some indication that the programe is still active in the background during this phase of the process?

Ich möchte Teile einer DNG-Datei gesondert bearbeiten und nutze dafür den Maskierungsmodus. Bisher hat das auch immer gut funktioniert. Nun plötzlich scheint die KI oder was auch immer rasterartig das gesamte Bild im Laufe meiner Markierbewegung zu maskieren. Und das passiert mit jedem der auszuwählenden Möglichkeiten von Objekt, Pinsel und Verläufen. Die Möglichkeit Teile der Maskierung wieder zu entfernen ist ebenfalls nicht möglich. Hat jemand eine Idee, was das Problem ist?   Ich benutze LR Classic 13.3.1   [moved from bugs to discussions according to the community rules - Mod.]

I have noticed that the little “page flip” that denotes a virtual copy is not showing in Lightroom. I’ve been able to filter them out in the library in attributes but I still don’t see the “page flip” at the bottom left of the image. I have increased the size of the thumbnails, no luck. Below are my interface settings and while I don't see anything specific to virtual copies, I figured I'd include a screenshot. Is this a bug or did I mess someting up? Any help is appreciated. Chris  

Bonjour, depuis quelques jours quand j'importe des nouvelles images, je ne parviens plus à voir mes nouvelles importations dans la bibliothèque, les anciennes s'affichent encore sans problème mais pas les nouvelles, il m'est donc impossible de travailler. merci pour votre aide

Hey zusammen, hat jemand seit dem letzten Update von Lightroom vor ein paar Tagen auch Probleme mit der Synchronisation der Cload und der Bilder?Nach dem Update wurde ich aufgeführt ein neuen Katalog zu erstellen da dieser nicht mehr kompatibel ist. Nach dem ein neuer Katalog erstellt worden ist (Kopie) war ich es bis dato immer gewohnt das alle Bilder nochmal erneut Synchronisiert wurden, (dort stand dann immer zb 10.000 Bilder werden synchronisiert, nach und nach wurde es weniger bis man bei "0" angekommen war, dann Stand "alle Daten Synchronisiert").Nach dem Update werden nur kleine Bilder Zahlen Synchroniesiert, 320, 219, 129, und wie jetzt unten zusehen 9 dort hängt sich dann das Programm anscheinend auf und macht nichts mehr.Auch in Lightroom Mobile werden die Daten nicht aktualisiert woran ich erkenne das es anscheinend wirklich ein Synchronisierungsproblem vorliegt.Hat jemand auch das Problem und hat vielleicht eine Fehlerbehebung für mich?GrußChristian

I'm working on this smart preview catalog from a client but it shows in the Histogram panel that it has Original + Smart Preview. Thumbnails won't load in Library both on Loupe and Grid View, photos will load in Develop module. Here's a screenshot of the catalog. What could be the possible problem for this issue? Is there any thing that I can do to fix this? It usually just shows Smart Preview below the Histogram but now it shows Original + Smart Preview. OS: Windows 10Lightroom Classic Version: 13.1

Hi guys, thanks in advance for reading my post.I use a Macbook Pro, I do not store images on my internal hard drive. Instead all my images are on my External 8Tb SSD drive. My only catalog is on my internal SSD drive on my Macbook Pro.  Currently my workflow is. > capture images > download from SD card into LR Classic > Cull / Process images.Now I have an additional 2Tb SSD card that I want to use while travelling to store, cull, rate, and edit photos while on the move. When I return home I want to get all the images over onto my external 8Tb SSD drive complete with edits and any other data I have applied. How do i do this ? Can anyone explain easily ? Could you kindly point me to a link or post where I can learn the correct way to achieve this please.I have done some digging but I always seem to find conflicting advice and end up down a black hole lolYoiur help woud be appreciated.I'm guessing its a simple answer but I havnt found it yet....duhhhhTa. !!!

Something is wrong with the preview functions of Lightroom. I've had the problem since installing the new version of Lightroom. I have followed all the instructions in this post: Lightroom error on preview cache or displays gray thumbnails (adobe.com) and the problem persists. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program. Nothing works. How can I fix this?

Hi All, I have lots of issues since the latest Lightroom classic update and still after the bug fixes update I did earlier. I have 79 files constantly syncing. LOTS of my photos have disappeared of my hard drive.And background and subject masks don't work, nothing happens when selected, but sky masks do. I have no idea what to do. Am I able to go back to the previous version? Or do I tackle these one at a time? TIA Richard
