LrC crashing on MacBook Pro M2 chip

I tried downloading LrC some time ago but it kept crashing, even an Adobe technician couldnt sort it. 

A year later and Ive tried again as I really want to use it, and I am paying for it, and although its better and I can at least use it , it still crashes regularly. 

Any answers ?

Crashing when you perform what task in LrC? Please be specific.

 

Does just LrC crash, or does the entire computer crash and you have to restart the computer?

Hey, @Wendy5E64. Welcome to the Lightroom Classic Community. I'll help you figure this out. What version of Lightroom Classic & the operating system are you working on? 

 

Is there a crash report when Lightroom crashes? Please submit the crash reports to us: https://adobe.ly/45BlpG4

 

What troubleshooting steps have you tried? Does Lightroom Classic bounce at the dock?

 

To begin troubleshooting, test some variables like:

  • Unplug any external peripherals & use wired input devices.
  • Unplug external drives.
  • Temporarily, unplug extra displays & only keep one active at a time.

Try this series of steps:

  • Uninstall Lightroom Classic & restart the machine
  • Instal Lightroom Classic again, but do not launch it yet.
  • Ensure Lightroom Classic has the required permissions on macOS: https://adobe.ly/45AcLYx
  • Try launching Lightroom Classic now.

Let me know how it goes. Thanks!
