Issue=

I recive the following error when trying to open any Lightroom project on any of my harddrives (I've tested 6 drives all with the same error). Lighroom itself will not open on it's own. I cannot choose a new catalog and/or defalut catalog. I just recive the same error :

Working off of:

macOS Mojave Version 10.14.6

Mac Pro (late 2013)

Processor 3.5 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon E5

Graphics AMD FirePro D500 3 gb

I work in Premiere / other Adobe programs regularly those are working fine.

I have re started my computer - no change.

I have unistalled and re-installed Lighroom- no change.

Please advise - thank you.

Revert back to LrC 9.4. Reports indicate that can still read your LrC 9.4 catalog. https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/using/install-previous-version.html

Hi,

I am wondering if there is any update on solving this issue? I upgraded Lightroom Classic 10.1.1 to 10.2, and cannot open any old catalog. I tried to copy them in a new folder, but it doesn't work. I tried to roll back to Classic 10.1.1, but it does not work either.

Please advise - thank you!

I have the same problem! I can't access any catalog neither backup. It also doesn't let me open a new catalog so I am not able to even start Lightroom.

Any suggestions?

Hi Skyem, did you ever manage to resolve your problem with Lightroom? I'm having the same problem with Lightroom 10.1 - when i try to update to 10.2, i get the same prompt as you did. Any thoughts on how to deal with this would be appreciated.
