Lightroom not saving edits

Question

I am running into an issue where I edit photos in detail mode, sometimes using batch edit (cmd+shift+c/cmd+v), and after some time, I'll look back at the previous photos I edited, and the edits are gone. Ie. They are all back at the default values.

When I try to edit it again, it looks like it saves okay, but then I'll check back at the photo 30 minutes later, and it will be back to the original default values, like all 0s. I do notice the cloud icon continuously trying to sync. It never stops though, even with a small number of photos like "3 photos syncing".

The closest related issue I've found in this forum is here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-ecosystem-cloud-based-discussions/lightroom-not-saving-changes/m-p/11743054

But this doesn't really help me, since I want to keep working in Lightroom, not exit it. Also, the issue happens while I am working in Lightroom.

I'm using: Adobe Photoshop Lightroom version 4.4. My OS is Mojave version 10.14.6.

Anyone know a fix for this?

Same here, I can check back on the photo immediately and its back to its original state in Android LR on multiple devices.

It used the "store local" option on those photos before. Another album I only shared as smart preview seems to accept my changes. So it does not seem to be a global problem.

Still very annoying puting time and effort in and its all gone afterwards. I was even able to share some editied versions on my mobile device before they reverted back to unedited state.
