Hi guys,

This LRC message seems quite ominous and ... I have no clue what it's about or means.

Any ideas? Please see attached

Thanks a lot,

Correct answer CumberLinda

Have you rebooted the Mac? That can sort out many odd problems. Maybe not this one, but it's easy to try.

Like @CumberLinda said, programs will never be able to write into /Users. That is a system locked folder. You must have set up the sync location wrong in the Lightroom Classic Sync preferences. Just go into Preferences->Lightroom Sync and set it to a location where your user has write access which is usually somewhere in your own home folder like in the pictures folder there.

Programs can write to subfolders in /Users but not to /Users itself. If you've set up /Users to receive syncing photos and videos, you'll need to change that.

Granting LrC Full Disk Access is also important for other LrC functions.
