Same here!

@joans46224650, please do the LR menu command Help > System Info and copy/paste the entire contents here so we can see exactly which versions of hardware and software LR thinks you're running and important LR options that are set.

[johnrellis]

@fmarjanephotography, you're on Mac OS 14, which is still in beta and not supported by LR -- all bets are off when you run beta versions of Mac OS.

My lightroom classic doesn't detect people, it detects subject, background, sky but people don't.

Can you help me?

[JohanElzenga]

If you go to Help - System Info, then what version does Lightroom Classic have?

[ruiv28614669]

I have last version! 

[JohanElzenga]

Can you show a screenshot of the mask panel when you try to mask these people? I have no problems masking the people in your photo in Lightroom Classic. Only the child is not recognised, possibly because of what it has in its mouth.

 

[ruiv28614669]

Thanks for your help. I upload another example, it just doesn't recognize people. And I think it could be some configuration. I am using mac mini, but on my laptop, I have no problems.

[johnrellis]

You have have an older Mac not compatible with People masking. To determine authoritatively, please provide the following:

1. Do the LR menu command Help > System Info and copy/paste the entire contents here so we can see exactly which versions of hardware and software LR thinks you're running and important LR options that are set.

2. Click on the Apple icon in the upper-left corner of your screen, do About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware > Graphics/Displays, and paste a full-resolution screenshot (not a phone pic) here.  E.g.

[ruiv28614669]

Thanks for your message.

My computer is recent, it has the M1 processsador with 16 Gb of RAM. I always had the option working, now suddenly Lightroom stopped detecting people. That's why I think it might be a setting or something disabled.

[johnrellis]

It would help to see the detailed information I outlined above.

[ruiv28614669]

Ok.

[johnrellis]

You're running Mac OS 14, which is still in beta and not supported by LR. A couple of others have reported People masking not working on Mac OS 14:

Moderators, @Rikk Flohr: Photography, please merge with this thread, which also reports that People masking isn't working on Mac OS 14 (beta):

[ruiv28614669]

Thank you very much for your help. Well, that must be the problem.

I am having the same issue but it was working just great for several months... and now it is not working at all... really sucks. I am on an iMac i7 running OS 13.6 with 64 gig of RAM Lightrroom Classic 13.0.1 ... as I said.. it was working and then it stopped.

Please do the LR menu command Help > System Info and copy/paste the entire contents here so we can see exactly which versions of hardware and software LR thinks you're running and important LR options that are set.

Click the Apple icon in the upper-left corner and do About This Mac. Post a full-resolution screenshot (not a phone pic) of the About window.

@Sheri34661609d0s6, you're on an older Mac with less than the required minimum graphics memory of 2 GB:

Those Macs are known to have problems with People masking in particular.  

Try disabling LR's use of the GPU for AI masking:

https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-ideas/p-allow-users-to-disable-the-gpu-for-ai-maski... 

Let us know whether that helps.

I have the same issue. I understand that the beta version of Mac OS is not supported. However, it is also interesting to note that people masking works fine in Phtotshop, just not in LrC
