Question

LR v4 Suck syncing deleted photo

Once again another stuck syncing thread. I think this is something to do with the deleted photo metadata bug I've read about. 

 

LR is stuck syncing one photo, but when you click the cloud icon and then view to see whats syncing no photos come up. LR on the web browser doesn't show any syncing photos or sync issue photos, and neither does LR on my iphone. 

 

I can't seem to find a recent answer on how to fix this? Any help?

Deleted folder is empty and LR web and iPhone don't show any syncing photos, it's just on LR on my iMac

Which version of LR on your iMac? Lightroom Classic or the cloud-based Lightroom desktop app?

It's not clear from your posts, but have you opened the Deleted album in either the desktop or web apps to see if you can see one of the deleted images still showing the blue circle "syncing" icon? If so, permanently deleting that image usually resolves the problem.

 

If there's no image in Deleted still trying to sync, then your problem is likely a different one.

Thread title should, of course, read STUCK syncing. But it does also suck that it keeps getting stuck.
