Questions

HiI was wondering if a new version of Lightroom Classic for Mac would be released soon. I'm sure this isn't a normal thing Adobe would tell us but my Lightroom Mobile app updated, I made edits & they won't sync back into Classic because it hasn't been updated. It says "There are photos edited with a newer version of Lightroom in your catalog Enabling sync without updating Lightroom Classic first will cause incompatible edits to be lost." I would rather not lose whatever edits I did in Mobile. If I did would it just be features not yet in Classic? I know I should have made sure they were both compatible with each each other... Thanks

Bonjour comment activer Lightroom Classic sur imac en 2025 avec un abonnement Lightroom 1T ?Je ne trouve pas le catalogue et l'historique des retouches photos...Merci

I'm usding the Lens panel in Lightroom Classic to clear up chormatic aberrations and fringing. Under the menu Profile it only has less than a dozen older Canon lenses and nothing of the newer RF models. I think I must be missing profiles but I don't know how to find the profiles, do they need to be dowloaded or shouldn't they be already included in Lightroom? I have the latest version. How do I bring in the newer profiles so they will show and can be used?

Trying to help someone who is without Internet, today, ... For some reason, the camera they use regularly, is no longer showing up in their RAW DEFAULTS portion of that window (LrC > Preferences > Presets).  It was there... now it is not.  ??They are up-to-date on a macOS (Macbook Pro) with an external drive - no hardware or system issues.There are no bugs in my system (macOS - iMac),  and I could not find any for theirs, either. The last time I added a camera to my system was over a year ago, and I cannot for-the-life-of-me, recall what I did to get that camera model added to my Defaults.  But there it is, happily! They tried to Update Default and Relaunched LrC but got no change.  Even their camera brand (OM Digital Solutions) does not show in the pop-out list.   I have looked everywhere in the community and on Adobe for a solution but am coming-up blank. How do they get the camera model entered to register in the Defaults?&nbsp

Long time Lightroom user since version 1.0. Since Lightroom updated to 14.0.1 (Windows) I have been having trouble Importing photos from my memory card to the (internal) hard drive on my workstation. The process would be stuck at "Copy and Import Photos" and nothing happens. It would not copy the files, let alone renaming and cataloging them. When I cancel the import, Lightroom Classic would say "No photos or videos were found to import" and eject the card.This is the stuck screen.I have tried to:1) Start a new catalog. Same result.2) Uninstall, restart, reinstall Lightroom Classic. Same result. Lightroom has basically become useless. Is anyone else encountering this issue?

Hi there, While trying to use the color picker found within the Color Grading panel, an alert popped-up with the message:  “Adobe Lightroom Classic” is requesting to bypass the system private window picker and directly access your screen and audio. This will allow Adobe Lightroom Classic to record your screen and system audio, including personal or sensitive information that may be visible or audible. I guess it is needed so we can inspect the colors on the image we are working on, but I don't understand why such a broad permission is needed, as the image is shown within the confines of Lightroom app. As I understand from the message, we are granting Lightrrom permission to record our screen and audio system-wide, so whichever other application is open, Lightroom could access it's contents displayed on screen. If somebody knows the reason and could explain it to me, I would really appreciate it. Thanks a lot in advance! 

This problem just started today.  First noticed the problem when trying to export.  As soon as export is selected, LR stops responding and becomes non-responsive.  The only way out is to Force Quit the program.  Even if LR is started, and then I try to exit the program, it hangs up and I have to do a Force Quit.Ive tried deleting LR from the CC app and reinstalling it, to no avail.  I've tried downgrading to an earlier version and same thing happens.  I can't create a new catalog or switch to another catalog without it hanging.  I have no idea where to go from here!Macbook Pro 15-inch, 2018Processor: 2.6 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7Graphics: Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MBMemory: 32 GB 2400 MHz DDR4

Something really strange just happened. I have a folder with subfolders , each containing several hundred photos. I was working in one of the subfolders, which contained a mixture of PNG, JPG, and JXL photos. Of the 350 photos, 14 were PNG. Here's a breakdown: I filtered to show only PNG files.Selected all of them and ran an export that converts them to JXL and imports them back into the catalog.After the conversion/import was complete, I selected the PNG files again and used the Remove command to delete them from disk.Suddenly, those 14 newly imported JXL photos are thr ONLY photos that will show up in my catalog. Everything else has vanished—and not only from that subfolder, but from ALL the subfolders in the parent folder. I can't figure out what's going on. If I try to synchronize the folder, it shows that it will import 336 photos, but when the import window comes up there's nothing there because it thinks all the photos are duplicates. If I use the Find All Missing

I have the same (up-to-date) versions of LR and PS on my laptop as my desktop and preferences are identical. LR on my laptop will not enable any of the extended 'Edit In' options for Photoshop 2025 but will for the beta version.

Hi, I am new to the community. I have recently bought a new iMac and have the latest updates for LrC installed. Every time I try to import it crashed after only 2 photos! I've disabled the GPU, reset preferences, purged the cache and tried a new catalog. I have plenty of space on my external hard drive and using the same SD cards I've been using for a while now. I've tried two different SD cards and have the same issue.I never had any issues with my 10 year old MacBook!! please, does anyone know how to fix this?  thanksMark

I just updated to Lightroom 14.4 and now the Enhance feature is gone! What am I missing? I use this feature all the time.

In LRC, the Landscape masks do not separate the different masks; they take them as a single mask. It was working well until last week. I made a test with Camera Raw, and it is working ok there.

A l'ouverture de l'outil "supprimer", Lightroom plante et je ne peux plus l'utiliser. Quelle solution ? Je précise que j'ai désactiver mon GPU dans Lightroom pour pouvoir l'utiliser. Merci.

Using Publish services publishing to Google drive streamed folder in physical drive (not virtual drive) and folders that used to publish are usable offline. When Content Credentials are disbled upload works fine. Enabling Content Credentials (any method) causes errors and files are not uploaded. All file requirements are ok.Exporting photos normally (not via publish service) with Content Credentials enabled to "normal" physical folder works fine.

Hi there. I have a windows copilot surface pro 11. So, I am working on Windows ARM. When I try to import photos to lightroom, I dont see any image on thumbnails at all. Like this> If I select all the images I want to import and click on import, I get this:I can leave the computer as long as I want that nothing appens. Lightroom is not crasched per se. I can still work with the pc. Lightroom is barely using CPU or Ram. Just sits there, for hours if I let. if I cancel the import I get this: I have enough space in disk. I am just adding pictures. I tried having the pictures in the pc hard drive and on a external hard drive. I tried changing permissions. I cannot get arround this to import photos into Lightroom. can you please help me!?? THANK YOU

Whilst using the Colour Mixer within the Develop Module I selected a swatch and then "Visualize Range". Not wanting to proceed I deleted the swatch (with Visualize Range still active). At this point the program locked up and I could only close and re-open it. I know what to do in future but I guess that this is a bug that needs dealing with.

Hello,I have an issue with the synchronization from LR Classic to LR.I finished processing my photos in LR Classic, and usually I put them in a collection to sync with LR. This time, in “Local Activity” it says that some photos are still being synchronized (including photos from other collections), but the sync is stuck at 254 photos and won’t move forward. I tried deleting one or two photos to restart the sync, but it didn’t work.In addition, when I open LR, it now tells me there is an error in my local catalog… Could you please help me? I’m getting a bit desperate.Thank you in advance,Quentin.

Lightroom Classic crashes now over the last 6 Days very often (most of the time) when i try to apply Denoise, then the progress Bar shows up and at some point of the process ( at different % of progress) it freezes my whole System mostly with a black screen, which then follows by a Automatic Restart of my Notebook.... ( Asus ROG Strix G15 Advantage with AMD 5900HX and AMD 6800 AMD Driver is Adrenalin 25.9.1 ) there were only 1 or 2 exceptions of this error when it freezed with a randomly colorful pixelated pattern with a parttime black screen saying: Your System ran into a Problem and needs to Restart, Stop code: Clock Watchdog Timeout (0x101) I had no Problems over a long time with this system. What I tried so far : a Inplace repair install of Windows 11, uninstalled and reinstalled the latest AMD GPU, CPU and Chipset Drivers the normal Way, but also with DDU.....uninstalled Asus Armoury Crate, i have latest BIOS and Bios Defaults,.... then sfc/ scannow, DISM , Windows Memory Tests, s

Hi, in the latest version 14.5.1 the GPU shoud accelerate previews and exports.  However, my Nvidia 5070 TI with 16 GB Ram is ideling with 1-15% during previews and export although it is enabled in the lightroom settings. CPU (i9-9900KF) is running at 80%.How can I enable lightroom to use the brand new GPU?

I have been struggling with this pretty much all day. I have a LR catalog that seems to be missing content that is in it's 'Import' folder. I am on a Mac and using LR Classic 14.5.1 Build [202508231203-c2638d01].In the library module,  - the Catalog 'All Photographs' count is 1091.  - the Folders 'Import' count is 1091.So far, so good. But I noticed that in the 'Import' folder there are 1354 images/files.Not sure how to get the two to match. I have tried to 'Synchronize' the folder and in the pop-up dialog box it says that it will import 252 files. I realized that doing so will bring the count in the Lightroom Catalog 'All Photographs' count to 1343 (the original 1091 + the new 252).Not exactly the 1354 that are in the 'Import' folder, but I would be happy to get those numbers so close. When I clicked on the 'Synchronize' button at the botom of the 'Synchronize Folder "import" dialog box, I get a message pop-up that states, "No photos or videos were found to import"

I've update Lightroom Classic and Camera Raw at the latest version.Since than, Noise Reduction doesn't work anymore (Photo shooted whit Nikon D5600, file extention .NEF, Windows 11 Pro).When i click the Noise Reduction Flag, appear to me the window where you can see that it's start working saying to me how much time will take to apply the noise reduction, 2 second later the window disappear without applying the command.I've tried with automatic syncronisation, nothing change.I've tried to unistall and reinstall, nothing.I've tried to reset preference, still nothing.Last week i was able to use noise reduction, now it doesen't work.Please someone let me know what is wrong with that, thanks.
