Question

Lightroom error - photos sync themselves

I need help, my Lightroom5 for PC suddenly has an error - when I edit a photograph and move to the next one it automatically copies the settings of the edited photo over to the new one. It does not happen every time but about 50% of the time. It has not done so in the past at all. Even if I work on a photo and then go back 5 picks to an image I have edited before it will suddenly change that image to the edited settings of the last one I worked on.

Please help, I need to fix this bug asap. Tx

    Do you have more than one photos selected?

    Is auto-sync turned on?

    Yes, only one photo is selected and auto-sync is not on. It is like I would usually edit, now it just copies the settings over to the very next photo I open regardless of where it is in the catalogue. And when I look at the history it will not show there that any changes were made to the photo. It has to be some kind of glitz or bug

    Are you using raw files? It could be the result of a defective profile. You could try restoring Adobe default.

    You select one image and hold down the Alt (Optn) key and the reset button (bottom right in Develop) switches to Set Default.

    A dialog will open showing the camera model for which the Adobe Standard profile will be applied in future to negative (raw files)

    To update click the left button “Restore Adobe Default Setings”
