LR Classic: Change Settings for Lightroom Synchronisation

Community Beginner ,
Aug 01, 2025 Aug 01, 2025

I have two Lightroom Classic catalogs, A and B.
For a long time, I synchronized catalog A with the Lightroom Cloud.
Then I entered the cloud synchronization credentials for catalog B as well, because I didn't know I was only allowed to synchronize one catalog.
Now, every time I start catalog B, I get a message saying I'm only allowed to synchronize with one catalog and a question asking if I want to synchronize catalog B. The options are "Cancel" or "Yes, synchronize this catalog instead."
I want to continue synchronizing catalog A and not synchronize catalog B. "Cancel" isn't final, though. I get a message again the next time I start it. How can I prevent this? I was able to enter the credentials in the Lightroom synchronization settings, but there's no way to remove them.

Yes, that is the one. Delete it and the problem should be solved.

Open the catalog folder of catalog B and delete the file with 'Sync' in its name (I can't remember the exact file name and I can't check it because I type this on my iPad). Lightroom Classic will rebuild it and the repeating question should no longer show.

Windows user here: on my PC this item presents as a subfolder.

 

it's found in the same location as [Catalogname].lrcat - the Catalog itself - and named  "[Catalogname] Sync.lrdata".
