Edits not showing in filmstrip or grid view

Working with v7.0.1, any edits made to a photo are not shown in the filmstrip or library grid view.  It seems that if I double-click an image multiple times, the filmstrip/grid view thumbnail will eventually switch to the edited version.

OSX 10.12.6

UPDATE: Since uninstalling lightroom and reinstalling the problem has come back again, I tried uninstalling and installing again but it didn't fix it this time. could this be some kind of caching issue? i often run low on space on my hard drive. As wedding photographer we have a lot of images come through the drive so we are constantly uploading and then deleting shoots with around 100GB per shoot a 1 TB drive fills up quickly.

Is there a way to seperateout the caching location so it is on a seperate drive potentially? or do people not think this is the problem?? what are your thoughts @JinHess? maxphotography  did you solve your problem another way?

After you’ve synced the edits, keep the images selected and choose ‘Library - Previews - Build Standard-sized Previews’. That will force Lightroom to re-render the previews.

You were already clear, but it doesn’t make sense that the image reverts back. I’ve never seen this, so I can’t offer an explanation.


ok, thanks anyway Johan, you helped me take the cache issue out of the mix though

You don't work with the latest version of Lightroom. It's actual version 7.4

Please install the latest version and try again.

I just updated and it is still happening. I read somewhere that Lightroom classic struggles with larger libraries, I have deleted some older shoots but I am still having the same problem.

What is your operating system? What is the exact version of Lightroom being used? How much RAM? What do you consider to be a "large" library?

I am working on version 7.3.1 and I get the same issue, If I choose, lets say 10 images in the filmstrip and "syncronise settings"  across them all, the previews do not change, if I go into each image the edits are their and the preview then updates as soon as I have viewed it in full screen. On top of that the previews sometimerevert back to the previous edit when I select other images in grid view and filmstrip. it is so strange, Any help would be appreciated it is driving me mad.
