Questions

I upgraded to new Lightroom few days ago and it asked to upgrade the catalog.Most of the photos are still there, but some folders are empty.I still see folders in LR, but they have no photos. I clicked on "synchronize" and it see over 2000 photos, but sync does nothing, it says no photo to import and folder is still zero.How can I access my photos? What is wrong with them? I have big catalog with about 500 000 photos (many many years), folders by year "2024, 2023, etc" then folders by date (like 2024.10.15) if that matters.

So Im doing all my edits for a photo in LR Classic and once I am done I right click the photo and use the "Edit in" button to get into photoshop. The floor in the photo is dirty so I clean it up and then once im done I export the photo as a JPEG. When I go back to LR Classic the DNG is completely reverted back with none of my edits that I worked on. Why, please I am so frustrated...

I'm bitten yet again by Lightroom Classic's inability to move image files to my system trash.  I've gone through all the solutions I could find:Turned off Full Disk Access for Lightroom, restarted, turned Full Disk Access back on.Created an empty folder on the affected disk and trashed it.Created a Trash folder on the affected disk.I've run Disk First Aid on the disk. I still cannot move image files to my Mac's trash. I'm only allowed to permanently delete them. Are there any new solutions? Thanks for any help. MacOS Sonoma 14.4.1Mac Studio with Apple M2 Max

Why  is it not possible to update to Lightroom Classic 15.0 (18€/month) on my iMac 27" Core i7 4.2GHz with 40GB of RAM and 8GB of VRAM??? So, why should I pay for this from now?

I Love that LR finally supports Fujifilm tethering with my GFX 100s, it starts quickly, and live view and autofocus works beautifully, It's great to have another option besides Fuji's Tether plugin. I have just one major bug that I found while using it: There is an exact, persistent 5 second delay between pressing the shutter button in LR and the camera autofocusing (5 second pause) then taking the shot, is there any way to get rid of this delay? It transmits the entire 100MP raw file into LR in less than a second when using the shutter on the camera or the Fuji App! Please can Adobe remove this unneeded 5 second delay? Also is there a way to temporary disable the new tether feature and use the Fujifilm Plugin like in the last version? Currently it kind-of works, but live views have to be synced, and it duplicates all the imported files. Auto-import with the separate app works, but that adds another 10 second delay to pull in each file after the shot! Also

Has the issue with color variances with Sony A1 II RAW files and Adobe profiles been resolved with Lightoom 15. Been following the discussions over the past couple of months and had the same issues of washed out colors using Adobe profiles. When I use a Camera ST profile there are no issues. Adobe Camera RAW for Photoshop noted "partial support" for Sony A1 II and I presume this carried through to LrC. So wondering if this has been resolved in LrC 15 and I can once again use Adobe profiles.

Hi there! I accidentally deleted some documents from my Macintosh HD to make more storage space. I use Aftershoot to cull + edit before opening in Lightroom Classic to finish + export - or I use Lightroom Classic to do all the editing. I’ve used Disk Drill to recover the documents but now I have all these random folders that possibly contain the Aftershoot/Lightroom Classic data in it. The recovered folders are on my external hard drive, but where do I save these folders on my Macintosh HD so all the links match again in Lightroom Classic? I back up all my RAWS to external hard drives(s) and import them to Aftershoot/Lightroom with these too. When I open Lightroom Classic to import more photos, I receive an error message (please see screenshot attached). How can I restore the folder that all my projects are saved to in Lightroom Classic under my user?

After trying to get the "Scripts" to show up on my Lightroom Classic menu bar per the "script add" instructions for Preview Extraction script numerous times. I need to know how to enable this so I can run the script and extract my previews. I have attached screenshot of the created folder at the location that opens up when i click the "Show All Other Lightroom Presets" button. I'm also wondering why "Scripts" doesn't show up by default in the menu bar.... if one didn't have any scripts there would be nothing in the dropdown no harm no foul.

When I try to open Lightroom classic on my desktop it gives me this error.Lightroom cannot create or open a catalog name LightroomCatalog-2-2-v10v11-v12-v13-v13-4-2" on volume local disk (C:) because the preview cache paths would exceed the maximum path length for your platform.How do I go about fixing this problem

My Show Folders in Subfolders is turned on. At first I thought that might be the problem because it wasn't. Turning it on didn't help.I'm manually dragging photos onto the map. I map the photos in one folder (I file by day) and when I go to another folder and open the map for the SAME LOCATION none of the photos I previously pinned to that location show up.Here's an example where for Day 1 I mapped 17 photos for one location. Then I go to Day 2 and open the map and none of those from Day 1 are showing up. I drag 3 of them onto that same location and it displays the total number there as being 3.  I believe this is a BUG!It makes manually positioning images at the same locations extremely difficult because unless one is at exactly the same zoom setting on the map, positioning new photos at the same location is inaccurate ...particularly when the location has no visible name or icon to use as the anchor point. I tried calling Support but as usual the call gets cut off, especial

I just updated or have tried to update the latest LRC. I had moved my files from another computer to my new computer. On the old computer, my files were stored on a Drive called the E drive. On the new computer, it is on my D drive. LRC was working fine with this change. I initiated the update to the newest version of LRC. LRC screen comes up, and I get this message Cannot write to the following Directory EI am unable to open any of my files. How do I redirect the path to the correct location on the D drive?I am not very computer savvy. Thanks for any help!

Hi everyone! Out of nowhere, after I imported some new images into my catalog, LR started showing the folders twice in the Folders panel. I have one big catalog, ordered by YEAR, with each year's folder ordered by the date images were taken.Now, the IMAGES folder has been split into two panels, with some folders appearing twice in the original folder and others in a new one that appeared from nowhere! I tried to move those folders from the new panel to the first one, but LR says the folder already exists at that location, and in fact, the folder structure has never changed on my hard drive.I asked LR to synchronize the 2025 folder, and it has moved all the sub-folders to the new images panel. Has anyone seen this before? I was thinking of creating a new catalog, but recreating all the previews will take a long time.The two IMAGES drives in the LR panel point to the exact same location in my Synology drive (smb://172.16.65.2/Images), and the folder structure is shown below.Any help

cuando se pasa de LRC a PS  luego de la exportacion los parametros de revelado en LRC quedan en cero ayuda gracias  la version es v15.0

When I export using the settings shown in the image, the export is fast but the "Add to the Catalog" action is EXTREMELY SLOW.  You can't really do anything else in LR while the background add to catalog is happening because it resets everything after each image is added so you can't scroll or anything and when you are exporting 75-100 images it TAKES FOREVER and kills the entire efficiency of the process.   My setup is very similar to OP in that I have an export preset to rename, resize and place files in a sub folder of original folder and then add them to the catalog.  Again, the export happens very quickly but the last part of adding the exported images back to the catalog is excruciatingly slow. This has been a problem for a while but I really would like to get it resolved.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

After installing IOS Catalina I have lost the use of LRMogrify2. I get an error message "magick cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified" "Failed to run Mogrify..more info in the txt file" It appears to me that a new security feature has been added via Catalina. How to I get LRMogrify2 to work again? Thanks for any help in this matter.  NH

Hi, I have read more than a dozen of threads on the topic and still ...I have my sensitive photos in a folder encrypted with cryptomator.When I split my catalogue and create a sensitive photo catalogue in that encrypted folder LCR 14.2 sends an error message when I'm trying to open the catalogue.So even with the folder encrypted I can still see the previews in LCR.How can I change that?Many thanks!

Hi - i receive this error for about 20% of the photos I am exporting in Lightroom Classic. In Lightroom cloud for the same photo set, I do not receive an error when downloading but the same files that error in Classic do not download from LR Cloud. Classic throws this error: Unable to download original/proxy file Each file is then listed with (proxy_unavailable) next to each file. Any ideas?

Using Mac LR Classic 11.4.1 CR 14.4.1 on Big Sur 11.6.1. This printing issue has been around for awhile, at least a year, perhaps. If I try to print, say, a contact sheets of 30 images in a 3x3 grid with filenames under each, the first page prints fine with the correct size font and with the full filename. On subsequent pages, though, the full filename is clipped at one line. This occurs for long filenames which take multiple lines with bigger font sizes. First page is correct, subsequent pages have truncated captions. The coding problem may have something to do with whether all the filenames are long or not from page 2 onward. If there are some filenames which can fit on one line, LR perhaps thinks that is all the spacing that's needed for the caption on subsequent pages, so they are all just showing one line. Just a guess.

When in library mode and in single photo view, as soon as I navigate to a video LrC crashes. I sent in at least one crash report. I've seen this noted about earlier versions and claims to have been fixed / not reproducible but I still have this problem making LrC virtually unusable for me. I have not used LrC for about 18 months (though continued with my subscription) so I don't know when the problem appeared. I first encountered this on 14.5.1. I then downgraded to 14.1.1 and encoutered the same. I've tried purging the video cache and also disabling the Preview GPU feature.  Can I still downgrade to a 13.x version given that my catalog and I guess database have gone through the upgrade process to 14.5.1?  MacOS 15.6.1   Model Name: MacBook Pro  Model Identifier: MacBookPro15,2  Processor Name: Quad-Core Intel Core i7Photos and catalog are on external SSD over USB3Lightroom Classic version: 14.5.1 [ 202508231203-c2638d01 ]License: Creative CloudL

Bonjour,Je rencontre un gros problème avec Lightroom Classic (Windows 11, dernière version de Lightroom Classic via Creative Cloud).Lorsque j’essaie d’importer des photos JPG en mode Importer > Ajouter (sans les déplacer), Lightroom affiche « Importation en cours… » et reste bloqué indéfiniment. Rien ne se passe.Symptômes :Le bug se produit même avec un dossier simple, par exemple C:\PhotosTest.Le même blocage apparaît aussi (mais pas toujours) lorsque je fais l'importation depuis un disque externe: j’ai parfois réussi à importer depuis un appareil photo branché directement, mais pas de manière fiable.Quand je ferme Lightroom, le processus reste actif dans le Gestionnaire des tâches, ainsi qu’Adobe Content Synchronizer (CoreSync).Si je « kill » Content Synchronizer, l’import peut marcher une fois, mais l’application redémarre automatiquement et le problème revient.Lorsque je ferme l'application Lightroom Classic après avoir arrêté l'importation, l'application apparait encore da

Bonjour.Quand j'utilise Lightroom en capturant les photos directement depuis mon Fuji GFX, 2 fichiers de la même photo sont enregistrés (.raf et .RAF).Cela ne se produit que depuis récemment. Est-ce possible de n'enregistrer qu'un seul fichier ?Merci.François

I first noticed an upgrade on the Lightroom mobile v11. So upgarded on phone and tablet. Did a few edits on a few photos testing the enhance snow and blemishes new feature. All my photos in mobile (ie Cloud) are sync with smart collection to actual photos in the LrC which I keep running 24x7.Upgraded the LrC the following day to v15. It upgraded the v14.4 catalog but says the catalog it just upgraded to be corrupted.  On relaunch it tried to repair and upon repiared and relaunch again it still report the same problem ie need to repair.I reverted to LrC 14.4 and 14.4 catalog launches without problem but reported newer version of metadata. I was able to stop the sync and can use the LrC 14.4 without problems. I optimise the v14.4 catalog and reinstall v15, however same problem persists.Need help to get V15 running. Either Adobe update the v15 to cater for this use case or provide instructions to remove all the new edits using the new features I did with Lightroom mobile V1

Hallo Zusammen,ich habe auf meiner Kamera mittlerweile über 30 Hotpixel, die gerade im Telebereich störend sind und mühevoll per Hand weggestempelt werden müssten, wenn mir ein Freund nicht folgenden Trick verraten hätte:1. Anlegen eines Referenzbildes, in dem alle Hotpixel bereits weggestempelt wurden2. dieses Referenzbild zu Beginn jedes Workflows mit allen anderen Bildern synchronisierenFrage: Kann ich dieses Referenzbild im Katalog gegen versehentliches Löschen sichern ? Oder hat jemand einen anderen Tipp ?
