Suddenly unable to copy settings and paste to another photo

Hi folks,

 

I've been copying/pasting settings for years. Starting a few days ago settings are no longer pasting to the target photo. The progress bar in the top left appears as if they're copying over, but nothing happens -- the photo stays unedited/raw. This is a brand new problem. Anyone else experiencing this? 

 

Lightroom Classic 11.3.1 (latest)

MacOS 12.3.1 (latest)

There are two ongoing bug reports for what may be two different bugs. Let's figure out which one you're tripping over.

 

After you observe this behavior, take one of the problem photos into Develop -- have the sliders changed position to correspond with what you pasted, and is the photo in Develop reflecting those changes?
