Hi ​@angela38341583rui8 

 

Apologies for the delayed response. I’m hopeful that the issue has been resolved by now. If you’re still unable to create new collections or rename existing collections in Lightroom Classic, please update to the latest version, Lightroom Classic 15.5, and check if the issue persists.

If the issue continues, please try resetting Lightroom Classic preferences manually after creating a backup and restarting the application. Steps are shared here: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/desktop/introduction-to-lightroom-classic/reset-preferences.html#:~:text=Method%202%3A%20Manually%20delete%20the%20preferences%20file

 

If that doesn’t help, please share the following information with us:

  • Lightroom Classic System Info: go to Help > System Info, copy the information, and paste it into your reply
  • A screen recording showing what happens when you try to create or rename a collection
  • Any error message you receive

This information will help us better understand the issue and investigate further.

Thanks, Srishti Bali | Community & Engagement Strategist, Digital Imaging | Adobe

I’m unable to test that on Mac, since my LrC catalog with collections is on my Windows 11 computer. Creating collections and renaming them work fine for me. LrC V15.4.1. Hopefully someone on Mac can test it.
