Question

I cannot use cursor arrows to manage screen size. Neither do most of the "window" sizing work.

I just have to open Lightroom, let it load, and then go to “windows” menu. The only one that works is the minimize menu. At the same time my external disc in which I keep my Lightroom library does not link. I receive “file not found” when I try to develop. I use a MacBook Pro. The operating software is Tahoe 26.5.2.

    Hey, @courageous_ease15B9. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll need more info to help you figure this out.

    Please share the system info from Lightroom Help > System info > Copy and paste into a text document > Upload and attach here.


    Please try this step on the external drive:

    • Search for Disk Utility from Finder's spotlight search or magnifying glass.

    • Run the 'First Aid' diagnostic on the external drive. Check this to learn more: https://adobe.ly/4jbQS7x

    • Restart the computer


    2 - Ensure Lightroom Classic has the required permissions on the macOS: https://adobe.ly/4gp66Y2


    3 - Hold down the Alt (Option) key while launching Lightroom Classic to reset preferences. Confirm the reset when prompted.



    Let me know how it goes after following these steps.
    Thanks!
