I updated to the new catalog and now I have lightning bolts in the top right corner of all my images in the film strip. It had asked me if I wanted to use the new version and I said yes but the bolts are still there. How can I get rid of them? I am running version 6 in the calibration tab.

Thank you! That's what I thought but my sync is paused. I never have it on. Any suggestions. how. to turn it off again?

Perhaps I should have explained that those images are MARKED to Sync, because they are in a LrC Standard Collection that is also MARKED to Sync.

But your can turn Syncing OFF from the Cloud icon (top-right of screen) which ceases all syncing [Pause Syncing] to and from the LrC catalog..

You can also remove the MARK on a synced Collection so as not to sync by a [RIght-Click] > Toggle the [Sync with Lightroom] menu item. I cannot remember if this removes photos from the Lr Cloud - that needs other procedures.

Thanks for the info! I have the "pause synching" on but it still syncs to the cloud. I have to go into the folder and select "turn of syncing". Is there something on Import that I should check?

The "Lightning bolt" indicates images that have already been sync with the Adobe Creative Cloud, pausing sync in the area indicated in the screen capture in Rob's post will not remove the synced indication. Try going to the Collection where the images are and stop syncing there.

The "lightning bolt" on the photo borders indicate the photo is Synced to the Lightroom Cloud.

You may have added these photos to a Standard Collection that has been marked to 'Sync'.

Nothing to do with "Calibration Version 6". Calibration v6 is simply the latest rendering 'engine' in the LrC app to display your photos at their best.
