Question

Lightroom Classic latest upload - Missing access to Standard Folders

I just downloaded the latest update of Lightroom Classic and am getting a pop up that LR Classic doesn't have access to some Standard folders !?!?! The pop up goes on to provide a link for information on providing access but that link goes to an Error Page on Adobe. 

I've never seen this pop up before and am concerned bc the pop up further states that LR Classic might not work correctly if I continue without providing access. 

Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? Thanks in advance. 

PS. I'm working on a Mac Pro using OS Monterey Version 12.5

Just opened up LR Classic again after rebooting the computer - getting the same pop up message the LR Classic doesn't have access to some Standard Folders. Going to double check to make sure I followed the instrux in the link properly and try again. Back soon and hopefully with better news.

Hi again Ian. I was able to resolve the issue with your first recommendation of resetting the Privacy Options on my Mac. When I went back a second time to xck I saw that I missed a step. I corrected for that, restarted the computer and LR Classic opened without the pop up message. WHEW. THANK YOU. I've saved both of these links to repeat the process on my MacBook Pro M1. This is my first time using the Adobe Community for a tech issue and I'm very grateful for the support. I hope this thread hopes anyone else who runs into the same issue! Cheers! 


Thanks for letting us know that the issue was resolved using guidance at link.
