Question

Lightroom Mobile (ipad) not syncing to Desktop

I have had this issue several times in the past but usually troublshoot it enough to figure it out. I culled a wedding of 12,500 images that shows as such on the cloud but will not sync to my macbook pro. 

 

I am at a loss. 😞

Storage is not the issue. I do see several sync issues. Will deleting those image simply delete them from the cloud and not LR Classic?

Careful! Deleting an image from the cloud that has not yet synced to Lightroom Classic, will obviously mean it will not be in Lightroom Classic.

I always start with adding everything into LR Classic then simply cull on my ipad. 

The files also appeared to be older files I didn't need anymore anyway.

Assuming cloud storage isn't the the issue, have you tried checking http://lightroom.adobe.com/ to see if here are any sync issues (look for a tab on the left).

Try deleting any to see if things start moving again (it's best to make sure you have a backup of any photos that you delete)
