Unable to back up catalogue since update of Lightroom Classic 12.2

Hi team,

 

I am unable to back up my catalogue since updating to the latest release of LR 12.2. The catalogue generally backs up to my documents folder on Mac, and I have changed nothing since the update. I have tried backing up to several different locations EHD and IHD with no avail.

 

Force quit the app and when I reopened it an intehrity failure as well. Luckily when I rebooted from an old catalogue i hadn't lost anything.

 

Any ideas?

Have you allowed Full Disk Access to Lightroom Classic in the Privacy section of Security and Privacy in System Preferences?

Sean, THANK YOU!

They had been unchecked. I have given full permissions and successfully backed up my catalogue. 

You are a superstar!

Hey Sean,

 

This problem appears to be happening again, full disk access is still granted.

 

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Is there enough space? How often are you creating backups?
