LR Mobile not syncing to new device

I got a new phone and LR won't sync to it. My LR Mobile for iPad and LR Cloud both sync. I tried chatting but the Virtual Assistant said I don't have a paid plan so I can't chat with a real person 🙃

Correct answer nikoleflowers

Did you try to log out and log in on three devices ? Maybe the sync was stopped on one of them


I did! After a week, LR on my new device synced with the cloud. I tried many things yesterday, but I think uninstalling it from my old device actually fixed it. I read somewhere on the website that LR only syncs between three devices...my new phone would have been the fourth since LR was still installed/logged-in on my old device.

Engineering was able to recover the only file associated with your deprecated device. I can send you a link for that file if you like.

Triple check the Adobe ID is the same on all three instances (Desktop, Web and Device). It looks like your Device may be signed into a different account.

Thank you but I only have one account. I have logged in both via Google and
via Adobe (they're linked).

Thanks for verifying. 

 

An ask from the engineering team reviewing your case:

 

"Make sure sync is complete on any sync devices they have and they close Lr on all those devices after that. Inform Lr team and wait to hear back and don't open Lr on any of the devices till you hear back. "

Thanks for your assistance.
