'Waiting for Settings' LRC not syncing with LR

When working in lightroom classic it is not syncing properly with the cloud version of lightroom.

 

When opening the files from the LRC calalogues on LR I get the message "waiting for settings" I have attached a screenshot. It seems it is an issue with loads of people reporting this issue but I have not seen any fixes.

 

Please help if you have found a solution.

 

Thanks

What often worked for me would be to make a tiny insignificant edit change to the image in LrC (I'd simply add +1 to the Texture slider value), wait for that change to sync, then usually that cleared the Waiting for Settings message in Lightroom.

Thank you but the issue isn't with LR on the PC. It is not syncing with LR Mobile app. I don't use LR on the desktop only LRC.


Lightroom Classic is syncing to the cloud. Then the cloud is syncing to your mobile device. Currently we don't know if LrC is syncing successfully to the cloud. We need to determine that in order to investigate if the problem is with  LrC, the Cloud, or LrM. The screen I am requesting will help diagnose that.  Can you provide a screen capture of your screen at https://lightroom.adobe.com?

If you go to https://lightroom.adobe.com do you see the Sync Issues collection I've shown in my example? 

Without this information it will be difficult to proceed.
