Lightroom Classic Will not open on Macbook using Sonoma

[gavfoto71]

I have Lightroom Classic version 13.0.2 I have just updated my mac operating system to sonoma 14.1.2 on my Macbook Air M1 but I cannot get Lightroom to open. I get the splash screen for a few seconds and then it disappears.

It worked perfectly until this update. I have tried the suggestions regarding access/privacy and resetting but still no joy. I could really do with this resolving as I have editing to do. Please help!

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

Exactly the same problem with iMac M1. Lightroom en Photoshop are stil working. Tried new installation, different catalog file, ..  but didn't help.

Open LrC in the Guest account works. What to do?

How do you do that?

[Robertjan Zonneveld]

On a Mac you can make a new user. Login to that user and you can start Lightroom Classic. This is not a nice solution but make clear that it is a conflict between your account and Lightroom.  I also tried with assistance of adobe to reset all settings but that didn't work. The only solution is as far as I know now is the delete your user profile and reinstall it. Big job and not so nice. May someone else find a solution.

Thanks for that, it at least enables me to access Lightroom Classic, and allow me to finish the jobs I was in the middle of!
