To all here who were facing the issues while pasting settings and applying presets, i have finally found a way out of this problem, just follow the below steps : 1. go to /Library/Application Support and check whether there is an folder named CameraRaw if not create one. 2. go to this address and download the Modelzoo folder https://pixeldrain.com/u/PbaU7q9S 3. unzip this folder (Adobe Lightroom Classic) and copy the ModelZoo folder from it and paste it into /Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw Thats all, you're good to go. For any assistance text me on my instagram @withbaxit.

Hi everyone. This is my first post after reviewing the threads regarding this issue from October 2013. I am currently running v14.2 of LRC and have the following errors: Presets will not apply to images. (I always use Tiff files). When I click on a preset, that then initiates the 'Some masking models are downloading' window. The progress bar starts at 68% and once it has reached 100%, I then get the error message, 'Some masking models failed to download' in a red box at the top of the window. I have uninstalled and reinstalled LRC on my machine which is running Win10. Any thoughts or help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hey, @martin_8495. Welcome to the Lightroom Classic Community. I'll help you figure this out. Please share the system info from Lightroom from Help > System info > Copy and paste into a text document > Upload and attach here.

 

Instead of using the Preset, go to the Masking Panel & wait for it to finish. If that does not help:

1- Try connecting your device to a different internet source, like a mobile hotspot.

2 - Go to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Lightroom Classic and find Lightroom.exe.

3 - Right-click on Lightroom.exe and select 'Run as Administrator'.

4 - Wait for some time & then try using the masking tools again. 

 

Let me know how it goes. Thanks!
Sameer K

I tried uninstalling lightroom classic but it only gives me the option of installing version 14.3 how were you able to get version 14.2?

update: I had to call adobe tech to assist. The only true fix right now is to go back and Install LR 14.2  and wait for 14.3 to come out with a fix.

Ich habe einen Katalog mit Fotos zum bearbeiten. Diese Fehlermeldung wird mir angezeigt: Fehlermeldung: Einige Maskierungsmodelle konnten nicht heruntergeladen werden. Bitte versuchen Sie es erneut.

Wenn ich mit der Maus das gewünschte Preset auswähle, wird mir zwar das Foto mit dem gewünschten Look angezeigt, jedoch ändert sich in den tatsächlichen Reglern nichts, sodass das Foto unbearbeitet bleibt.

 

Ich habe bereits LRC deinstalliert und neu installiert und es funktioniert nach wie vor nicht. 

Vor 8 Tagen kam wohl ein neues Update ich weiss nicht ob es damit zusammenhängt. Selbst wenn ich ein neues Preset anlege, überträgt er es nicht auf die Fotos.

Bitte um Hilfe.

Rolling back from LR 14.3 to 14.2 won't lose your presets, preferences, or edits (unless you've used the new Landscape AI masks or a camera newly supported in LR 14.3):
