Questions

Using LrC ver 14.3.1 on macOS 15.5..I've had 73 photos stuck in sync activity for the last 90 days, I made a little progress (I'm down to 65 now), but wondering if there's any new remedies or workarounds now available since beginning of 2025?Here's how I got from 73 -> 65 images stuck in the sync activity listThe vast majority of the issues are metadata. I clicked on the asset path to go to the file in my collection and saw msgs like below when I clicked on the sync arrow in top right of imageBy clicking "save", and waiting a couple minutes, some the list of files decreased a little.This didn't work for the next 10 items in the sync stuck list so I'm looking for other ideas.I also tried unchecking the box to stop syncing the collection(s) the photo was in. But even after the collection was no longer marked to sync with the cloud, it's *still* in the sync stuck list. Frustrating.mike

Ventura 13.7.7 LRc 14.5I recently added a new ext hd to my system. It is now the source for ALL photo images. I previously used a different ext hd, but when I bought the new one, I copied everything from the old one to the new one. My new catalogs are on the new hard drive, but older catalogs still try to find images on the older, now empty or non existent, external drives, resulting in a lot of time wasted before the message appears that LR cannot find them.I wish to edit the folders panel in Library to have solely the new external drive there as a source for all of my images, old and new, and remove sourcing from all old external drives that were previously used. I have tried to edit with the + and - swtiches, but that has done nothing, ie cannot add nor remove. If I choose import on the lower left, it brings up the import screen, and shows all of my external drives, but when I choose the new external drive, it begins importing all of its contained images—something I don't think I wa

Running LR 14.5. All of a sudden a large numer of images are gone, with the message: “_MG_2137-Edit.tif” could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it? They can be located, with an appropriate response! What happened??Is this a fixable problem?

Hi,I was entering keywords for my images and suddenly the main panel was filled with "Welcome to People View."  I can't find any way to get rid of it.  Google says to go to Edit > Preferences > General > Privacy Section > deselect Enable Prople View.  But when I go to Preferences > General, there is no Privacy option and I can't find it anywhere else.  I don't want to use People View.  Please help me get rid of this screen and disable it in Preferences.  Thanks.Zaffer

Bonjour,Je sais pas vous mais depuis la dernière mise à jour LC/Camera Raw est devenu lent, très lent...Je suis en version 14.5 pour LC et 17.5 pour Camera Raw.Suis le seul dans le cas ? 

Bought a new computer and immediately installed lightroom classic to edit photos for my business. Worked just fine. Then the next time I tried to use it, my compter had linked my old computer lightroom information and now I it will not allow me to import new photos to edit. I have tried uninstalling and then re-installing Lightroom. So frustrated and have spent hours on this and nothing is working. I need help! Please!

Bonjour à tous, Depuis la dernière MAJ, l'outil réduction du bruit a perdu en fonctionnalités : plus d'aperçu et plus de possibilité de choisir l'intensité (50% appliqué direct) !Que se passe-t-il ?Merci pour vos avis éclairés.  

 Windows 11 It's reporting the following error, intermittently when synching metadate over multiple images.  This can sometimes be fixed by closing/opening LRC, sometimes, not so much ~~~~~~Arggh, I couldn't replicate, but the error was to the effect that the database or catalog failed ~~~~~  Rebooting the computer was the only working solution.It's also Refusing to accept my titles and descriptions.  When I enter them and move to the next file, if I return to the one just edited, there is no title nor description.  If I type the first letter of the title previously entered, the suggestion of the entire title appears.  After closing and reopening several times, the title and description finally appear.  This is not a lightning fast computer, but it's no slowpoke, either. Also, when two images are stacked and one of them is labeled red, it cannot be unlabeled withoug unstacking 

Hello, I'm finding that LRc starts to become less responsive after a few minutes of edting pictures. I see this mainly in simple things like trying to crop a picture, or even scroll through the filmstrip at the bottom of the screen in Develop mode. The program stops and starts and jerks as I try to do things. I try things like clearing the cache, restarting and it doesn't seem to fix it. I'm really only running LRc and a browser at the same time, so I'm unsure what is going on. Any ideas? System info posted below. Lightroom Classic version: 13.1 [ 202312111226-41a494e8 ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: enOperating system: Windows 11 - Business EditionVersion: 11.0.22621Application architecture: x64System architecture: x64Logical processor count: 32Processor speed: 3.4GHzSqLite Version: 3.36.0CPU Utilisation: 0.0%Built-in memory: 65445.7 MBDedicated GPU memory used by Lightroom: 10480.0MB / 24340.0MB (43%)Real memory available to Lightroom: 65445.7 MBRea

When I import files from my Autel Evo 2 Pro V3 the .dngs look completely different than the actual photos. They import fine but when I click on them the zoom level changes and they turn neon red - the white balance sliders go to the far ends. Also the only profile availble is "XL706" and I can't add or change others. Adaptive color is the only other option and it makes the colors worse.  No amount of sliding fixes this insane color. Everything looked fine while taking the photos but they are unusable.  I shot on auto white baalcne and tried again at 5500k - does not make a difference. The other thing is all my presets are in italics aka will not work with the selected photos which is a dng, which is what I used to make the preset. This does not happen with any other photos from any other camera. For $3500 this drone f*cking blows. Do not buy it. 20MP my ass, 6k? Nope, 4k? Maybe but its a stretch. Controls are garabge too.  Any ideas whats happeni

I messed up moving files around outside Lightroom to the point there is no longer any convention in the file names. My situation now is that I have a missing folder with 222 images. Those 222 images are present in the folder with 687 images. Is there a way to find them automatically by matching metadata such as time taken?

Do I need to disable color management in LR when printing with custom ICC?

I have a 2017 Mac book pro but I cannot update the operating system to 13 or above, which is required to install the latest version of Lightroom. AS a consequece I cannot currently use LR on my Mac. The mac is in perfect working order and I have no desire to buy a new one. Is there anytging I can do?

13.0.1 on Mac Studio M2 Max 96GB RAM. When trying to open a photo in a third-party app for editing, the "Preparing file for editing" progress bar instantiates but doesn't progress beyond 0%. If I view the source image folder in finder, I can see that the tif or PSD has been created almost immediately as expected, but then nothing happens...the progress bar stays stuck and the third-party editor doesn't launch. I've been able to reproduce with On1 Suite, Luminar Neo and SilverEfex. On rare occasions, when I've had the patience, the third-party application has eventually launched after 20-30 minutes. This worked as expected in versions prior to 13.

Hello,The cloud upload apparently gets stuck on one photo.The upload runs endlessly, but the number of photos remaining to be uploaded (973) does not decrease. However, the log shows no error, and I also don’t know which photo it is stuck on.What can be done in this case?I have the newest LR Classic Version (14.5) on Windows.I really appreciate any help. Thanks!

I created the catalog a few days ago and it worked for a while. I imported about 200 photos and processed most of them. Then the next day I noticed that the photos reverted to the original imports. I then discovered that several catalog files were automatically going to the OneDrive Recycle bin. I was unsuccessful trying to restore these files and I believe the catalog is hopelessly corrupt. I have not been able to open LR Classic the last few days. Should I reinstall Lightroom Classic?  I have about 6,000 photos in another catalog. I do not know if this catalog is corrupt, too. 

Hi, I have to admit that I'm a very curious person, maybe I'm a photojournalist also because of this. I'd like to know why still on August 22, 2025, working with Lightroom Classic , "Selecting the Crop Tool will exit Reference View" and if I'm doing the same thing with Lightroom Desktop I'm able to crop in the Reference View. Why Adobe? Why?!?

I have 11 years of photos in my main Lightroom catalog. On my harddrive, the photos are put into folders by year taken, and then a folder for each "shoot". I am unable to find (for example) photos taken in 2024.  You can see a snapwhot of my catalog. Filtering by 2024 does not work. I don't understand the order of folders displayed or how to manage it. You can see just a snapshot of my catalog.

Hi,I'm confused about the remove photo from Lightroom process, which has changed from how I remeber it. The message used to say "Remove from catalog but it will remain on disk" but now the following message is displayed...Remove Photo from Lightroom CatalogThis photo will be removed from your Lightroom Catalog and any synced Lightroom Client. Select "Delete from Disk" to also move the selected photos on your computer to the Finder''s trash I guess it's something to do with "any synced Lightroom Client", which I didn't even knwo you could do!! I need to unassociate the client maybe?Has this change been rolled out across Lightroom CC or have I inadverently changed something? I do have Lightroom CC running on a desktop Mac and a Macbook Pro but obviously different catalogs and the Macbook LrCC keep asking "Sync this catalog instead?" to sync to the Mac catalog, which it never used to do?I just want to keep the Mac (for office work) and Macbook (for field work) catalogs separate with
