Hi,

I hope someone can help me as I do not know were to go from here…..

 

Has anyone had problems with the latest LR classic upgrade to Lightroom 14.1.1 and a 16" Mac pro software to macOS Sequoia 15.2(24C01)

 

Because ……

Since my latest upgrades, Lightroom 14.1.1 and  macOS Sequoia 15.2(24C01) I have lost all my photographs and LR back up catalog(photos-folders)from Oct 2024 to Jan 2025.

My last LR back up catalog(photos-folders) was done a few days before the upgrades.

 

All my LR catalog backups from Oct24 and my photography was showing 

on my hard drive then now they are not showing. All folders and dates and over 500 photographs All Lost.

 

Does anyone know WHY?

Possible that you have accidentally opened the wrong catalog file. Please go to File->Open Recent and open the catalogs listed there until you find the one you want.

 

Upgrading the software will not affect your backups, so the only guess I have is that you are looking in the wrong folder, and you should use your operating system's search feature to search all folders on all disks for these backups (file name ends with .zip)
