On my vacation, I edit some of my photos on a mobile device in Lightroom.

When I get home to my PC they must all be loaded into Lightroom Classic.
How do I transfer the original files to the PC?

    If you enable sync of your Lightroom Classic catalog, then all photos in the Creative Cloud get downloaded by Lightroom Classic. In Preferences- Lightroom Sync you can define where Lightroom Classic should store them and whether it should create dated subfolders.

    Thank you - but this will only give me the jpg-file on the PC.
    What I am asking for, is how to get the raw-file on the PC, and get it
    connected to the adjustments I made on the mobile device.

    Nope. If you have raw files in Creative Cloud, then you will get raw files (and their edits) in Lightroom Classic. Lightroom Classic simply downloads what's in the cloud. If you get jpegs then you are doing something wrong or you only have jpegs in the cloud, not raw files.

    in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

    p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
