Questions

Hi, I have just bought the machine above.  I am very disappointed with its performance with Lightroom CC.  I was previously running Lightroom CC on a 7 year old HP Envy and can not really see much of a difference in the performance of either machine.  Any tips would be most appreciated... thank you... Dave

Hey All Can anyone help?I have just moved from intel mac mini to M4 mac mini, I used migration assistance and have only realised this is the wrong way to do things! I have only just noticed my Creative Cloud App is not running so went to open it and its saying I need to install something called Rosetta which is for intel macs? I don't want to do that and I understand I need to re-install Creative Cloud App for M4 chips and then re-download my Lightroom and Photoshop etc that is optimised for Apple. Which order is best to do this as I don't want to have to install Rosetta?

I'm looking for feedback from users of the GFX-100 and LRC on the Mac and PC. Our office uses a Fuji GFX-100, and we do tethered shooting. We only use tethered shooting, and we're having a VERY hard time on the Mac. We have a Mac Studio Pro running Sequoia and we also have a Macbook Pro M1 and a Macbook Pro M4. Our experience with all of these Macs and LRC is that USB connection is very flaky and unreliable. We get no connection, we get hard crashes, and connections disappearing. We're currently using LRC 13.5.1, because it's the most reliable for us right now. We use it with the Fuji Tethered App. We have tried the latest LRC 14.5.1, both with the Fuji Tethered App and without it (Adobe LRC recently added support for the Fuji GFX100 for tethered shooting. However, again, we have very poor results. Usually it won't connect at all.  Today we tried connecting the Fuji GFX-100 to a Windows 10 desktop and using LRC 14.5.1 in Windows, and it connects straight away. It connect

I just built my own computer and I have windows installed with it. I use a macbook as my portable laptop and since I finally have my PC i want to send over my catalog that started in my macbook to my PC. I am expereiecing the following issues. Please help! I checked out that one Lightroom Queen article and I can not seem to follow what I should be doing.    [moved to the correct community for Lightroom Classic and from bugs to discussions according to the community rules - Mod.]

I'm having trouble with LRC. It won't let me open my previously opened files if I move them to another disk or folder. I used to be able to do this by renaming the files, but with the new updates, I can't. How can I resolve this issue? The feature ahs been removed with the recent updates 

Good evening, I have a question: the manual noise reduction changes on its own. How can I stop this?

I know others have addressed this issue, but nothing I have tried has worked so far...and many of the posts on this issue are on older versions of software, etc. Here's the issue - trying to print to Epson Stylus Photo 1400 from Lightroom Classic (Ver 12.3).  Running Epson driver version 10.85. Using MacBook Pro 16 inch, running Ventura 13.3.1(a). Each time I try to print, I get the "Filter Failed" error message. I have resintalled the drivers multiple times, reset the printer settings in my System Preferences. Any ideas? 

Hey everybody, Here is a video walkthrough of the issue below.   When I send two photos as layers to Photoshop, one of the photos will lose all of its settings in Lightroom. No more ratings, no more exposure settings, no more masks, nothing. This has been happening for the last week.   What gives?   Lightroom 14.5.1 Photoshop Beta 27.0.0 macOS Tahoe 26.0.1   [Moved from 'Bugs' to 'Discussions' by moderator, according to the forum rules. You cannot file a bug report for a version of Lightroom (14.5.1) that is not supported on MacOS 26.0.1.]

Lightroom Classsic is running so slowly that its taking all the fun out of editing pictures. Click.....wait.......and finally the new tool will be loaded. I feel like I've tried everything recommended and I have a machine that should be more than capable. My computer is a i7 @ 2.9 GHs with 32 GB RAM running on a SSD primary drive. I have a 6 GB Nvidia video card. I've followed the advice on the Adobe site for optimizing, but nothing seems to help. Anyone have a checklist or something like that to help me troubleshoot? 

I’m trying to change the UserComment field in the EXIF metadata for Nikon RAW (.NEF) files.In Lightroom Classic (latest version, macOS), I can edit the value in the right-hand metadata panel — it appears to change in the catalog — but it never actually writes to the file itself.Even after choosing Metadata > Save Metadata to File, nothing changes in the RAW or XMP sidecar. If I inspect the file with ExifTool or another metadata viewer, the UserComment field remains unchanged.From what I can tell, LRC treats UserComment as a read-only camera field and doesn’t include it in its metadata sync/export set. That makes my edits effectively meaningless outside the catalog — even exports omit it.Has anyone found a reliable way to make Lightroom actually write to the EXIF UserComment field (or a supported field that persists in exports)?I’ve already tried: Editing directly in the metadata panel“Save Metadata to File”Re-importing after savingChecking for changes with ExifTool No luck

I have not new but good RTX 2080ti card, and it's always a question how this or that thing depends on GPU.My camera gives about 50Mp photos, and with "heavy" Lightroom or ACR presets it takes 1-2 second or more to generate preview when I scroll my presets and test what looks better. Could it be faster "on the fly" if I replace my GPU to something top like RTX 5090? Or it will be faster but something like 20-30% faster, that is not enogh for the price of new GPU.

Windows 11 Home Version 23H2Lightroom Classic 13.1 Nikon .NEF and .MOV Files on flash drive imported into Lightroom catelogue. In reviewing the .MOV files and trying to delete (hitting delete key then - remove from disk) them it states "The file named"DSC_226.MOV" could not be moved to the recycle bin.  If I try to delete it outside lightroom with lightroom still open (delete with windows explorer) then I get "The action can't be completed because the file is open in dynamiclinkmediaserver.exe" close file and try again.  It also isn't removed from the Lightroom Catelogue. Any way to fix this? Would like to clean up my files and discard the "non-keepers" Steve Egge 

I followed the procedure for converting .cube Luts in Camera Raw using a raw file, but the profiles are only available for working on  raw file types (e.g, ARW) and not other types of files (e.g., .dng, .tiff, etc.)Am I correct in concluding that .cube Luts cannot be coverted into profiles for use in Lightroom Classic using anything other than a true raw file (e.g.,  .dng, tiff, etc.), and that there is no way to convert .cube files into profiles for use  with .dng and .tiff files?

Hello Everyone. I've been a lightroom user for at least 5 years. Way back I had export settings saved in my lightroom but recently I had to delete lightroom off my desktop and redownload it. None of the export settings saved unfortunately. Now, when I export photos, and try to upload to instagram, they are extremely blurry. I've used settings people have recomended on youtube but nothing has worked. The ONLY time my photos aren't blurry and look normal on instagram is if I upload more than one photo. If I upload a single photo, it's extremley blurry. I'm beyond confused. Thanks!

Hallo!Ich habe letzte Woche ein Update von Widows 10 auf Windows 11 gemacht. Seit dem werden in Lightroom classic 14.5.1 keine Vorschaubilder mehr angezeigt. Im Modus Entwicklung wird das Foto allderdings dargestellt. Alle Grafikkartentreiber sind auf aktuellen Stand. Die Nvidia Grafikarte habe ich auch einmal deaktiviert. Ich habe auch Lightroom eine neue "Lightroom Catalog-v13-3 Previews.lrdata" erstellen lassen. Auch habe ich die alle Punkte, die ChatGPT mir vorgeschlagen hat, abgearbeitet.https://chatgpt.com/s/t_68e3f9dc96ec8191b5c7a18f068a4f1bKeine dieser Maßnahmen hat etwas verändert. Ligtroom classic hat bis zu Windows Update tadellos funktioniert. Hat hier in der Community einer eine Idee, wie ich das Lösen kann?Viele Grüße - Hermann

I have a portable 5TB external hard drive dedicated to images on LR Classic. Is there a way to change the name of the hard drive without messing up the connection between the images on the 5 TB HD and the LR Classic Catalogue? 

TLDR: some old (<2021) images in a large catalog spanning from 2007 till today do not display on the develop panel (but do on the library) and don't sync to LR on the Web. At the same time, these and other pictures do not sync to web and the list of unsynced files often mismatches the list of images in the sync pane. All common solutions tried to no avail. Reimporting the files copied from a different folder works but with no edits applied. Here we go.I have a large Lightroom Catalog (8GB) With images spanning from 2007 till today. It's he catalog where I import all of the images I've delivered or are going to be delivered and syncronized to LR Web to eitherselect or edit on the gohave the customer check or confirmpublish a selection of the images to behance and my websiteMy problem is that Syncronization started working erratically with some stuck pictures (sometimes listed on the preferences' syncronization tab, sometimes not - the number of unsyncronized images does not matc

I have been making slideshows from collections, but today when I go to the Collection (in LR classic) and click on slideshow the order is fine, then when I click on "Create Saved Slideshow" the order of the photos changes!  Any suggestions? Thanks.

Bonjour,Impossible de faire fonctionner la détection faciale avec LrC sur mon nouvel ordi.

La IA de Lightroom Classic no está funcionando, al intentarlo me aparece una ventana que dice Eliminación generativa ha fallado.Hemos detectado un problema y no podemos completar su solicitud en este momento. Inténtalo de nuevo más tarde.No sé si es debido a la última actualización de la aplicación o si hay alguna otra opción para corregirlo

I didn't have the JPEG problem in the past.   Everything was working just fine. But tonight, I suddenly cannot do a simple task of exporting from Sony RAW files to JPEG.I have exported thousand of JPEG files from the latest (updated) Lightroom Classic with my MacBook Pro M3 Max Chip with 48GB Memory and 1TB SSD.     There are plenty of  hard-drive storage in my SSD MacBook Pro and my SSD external Hard-Drive.I don't know what happen, but now suddenly cannot do any JPEG Export at all.   I resstarted my MacBook Pro  and  restarted my Lightroom Classic, but it's still not working.    Please see the error file below (attachment).     I also had the latest  MacBook iOS updates and Lightroom Classic latest updates. The JPEG Export was working just fine this morning and it was also working just fine for the last few years.   I don't know why suddenly the JPEG Export stopt working.    P

Ok this has been happening for a couple of days now. I can drop in my RAW photos and all is fine. Then I usually apply my preset to a photo and then apply it to all of them, that is when it freezes and I have to close it. I am working off of SSD's, plenty of RAM and storage.  I have tried to reinstall 2 times, I have tried all different kind of option changes and nothing works. I have so much work to do and I cant do anything. Please let me know if there is anything you can think of. Thank you

Já exclui e instalei novamente, já apaguei o que manda no site e nada resolve. sempre que abro o light vem essa mensagem e não consigo usar. 

I have subscribed to Lightroom Plan with 1TB for $23.99/month.When I looked at the version that was installed on my desktop I noted it was version 8.5 not the latest version 14.  Why is this?It clearly said Lightroom Classic for Desktop, but I got this old version.Very confused, can anyone sort this out for me.
