Question

Migrate certain photos from Lr to Classic

Hello. I imported photos to my ipad while in Alaska, and did my editing in LR cloud. Is there a way to migrate these to LR classic? For example, could I just move the files from my LR CC sync folder to another place on my hard drive within LR classic? 

 

I have too many photos to store everything in LR CC (~4TB), but it's convenient to work off LR CC while traveling... so I need to find a way to push back to Classic.

 

Thanks

Don

If you imported them in Lightroom for iPad, then all you need to do to get them in Lightroom Classic is enable sync in the Lightroom Classic catalog. There is no need to place them in a special album, because all images in Lightroom for iPad will download into Lightroom Classic. Selected sync is only possible from Lightroom Classic to the cloud, not from the cloud to Lightroom Classic.

 

P.S. If you imported the images to the iPad Camera Roll, then just connect your iPad to your computer. Lightroom Classic will show it just like a camera, so you can import the photos like you import photos from any other camera.

Create a collection and sync between LRC and lightroom. Any raw images you add to that collection with sync back to classic
