      I am having the same problem, Lightroom CC is updated V 3.1, Macbook Air updated. Trying to sync ~3k RAW photos. TAKING FOREVER. No videos in the files.

       

      How can we fix this Adobe??

        I have been experiencing the same terrible sync performance both from my iPad and my Mac Pro (wired ethernet).
         
        I have a new iPad Pro with Lightroom installed.  I have 70 photos that I transferred from my camera’s (Fuji XT-2) SD card to Lightroom.  The RAW files are approximately 50MB each.  A speed test run from my iPad shows a minimum of 3Mbps upstream speeds (120Mbps downstream).  In the last 3 hours, Lightroom has managed to sync 4 images.
         
        Unfortunately, I’ve seen similar performance from my Mac Pro on a wired Ethernet connection and don’t see any solutions to improve the sync speeds.

          Hi There,

          Sorry to hear about slow syncing in Lightroom, let's make this right.

          Could you please let us know the exact version of Lightroom you're using? Go to Help > System Info

          Also, what Operating System are you working on?

           

          Are there any videos in Lightroom? Try removing them and see if it helps.

          Are you using any kind of VPN?

          Regards,
          Sahil
