I am trying to figure out how to move my Lightroom Catalog to my new computer. All the videos That I see on this are Lightroom Classic. Nothing on just plan ol' Lightroom. So wheen I look at it it says everything is based on the cloud but I don't have enough storage to sync it. So I guess my question becomes; is there a way to move the catalog over to a new computer or am I stuck because it says the "cloud"? I am moving it from a Windows 10 pc to Windows 11.

Hey, @Rusty5CBE. Welcome to the Lightroom community. I'll help you figure this out. What exact version of Lightroom are you working on?

 

I've checked the account used to log into the community. Please log on to Lightroom Web (https://adobe.ly/3vq4cl4) & check if everything is synced to the cloud. What you have on Lightroom Web will be available on the next device. You've already exceeded your total cloud storage quota. There could be pending sync items. 

 

Please check the content here to get started with using Lightroom on multiple devices: https://adobe.ly/3Oip9VR

 

Let me know if it helps. Thanks!

The Lightroom I am using is version7.1.2

I have more pictures on Lightroom than I can sync. That's why I want to switch oer to Lightroom classic on my new computer.
