I know this is (or was) a known issue, but the forum leads me to believe the issue is fixed - but I'm dealing with it now. Lightroom Classic will NOT open and I can't figure it out.

I have the current version (12.3) of LR Classic and I am running Ventura 13.4 on my MacBook Pro. My LR catalog is stored on an external ssd. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing LR Classic. I tried copying the catalog to my desktop and I couldn't open it from there either.

It's most likely the same permissions issue as has been affecting other macOS usrs. See the pinned reply near top of this linked thread on how to fix it.

Below link takes you to Apple's guidance for changing permissions, but it's not application specific, hence the link I provided above

THANK YOU so much for pointing me in the correct direction. I was looking at other threads that were not helping me. I'm so appreciative. I had just photographed a wedding and panicked big time when I couldn't launch LR Classic when I got home.
