Lightroom Classic

I have researched all possible issues but have not identified a possible yet.  II have checked image mode in PS , shows as RGB, updated my graphics driver, I have uninstalled both PS and LRC, reinstalling has not fixed the issue. In PS I can import a TIFF direct and this is in colour.  It only happens when I select “edit in” from LRC.  

Since the latest versions of Lightroom Classic and MacOS the masking of people always shows “No people found” – even on photos where it was working before. Lightroom Classic version: 15.2 [ 202602111402-ec4112e8 ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: en-DEOperating system: Mac OS 26Version: 26.3.0 [25D125]Application architecture: x64Logical processor count: 24Processor speed: 3,3GHzSqLite Version: 3.36.0Adobe GSDK Version: 1.4.0.171Built-in memory: 196.608,0 MBDedicated GPU memory used by Lightroom: 4.743,3MB / 16.368,0MB (28%)Real memory available to Lightroom: 196.608,0 MBReal memory used by Lightroom: 3.040,3 MB (1,5%)Virtual memory used by Lightroom: 55.303,7 MBMemory cache size: 62,7MBInternal Camera Raw version: 18.2 [ 2482 ]Maximum thread count used by Camera Raw: 5Camera Raw SIMD optimization: SSE2,AVX,AVX2Camera Raw virtual memory: 631MB / 98303MB (0%)Camera Raw real memory: 644MB / 196608MB (0%)Cache1: Final1- RAM:519,0MB, VRAM:1.818,0MB, ALP05331.ARWNT- RAM:519,0MB, VRAM

Hi Community,I’m experiencing severe performance issues with Lightroom. The app is extremely slow, barely usable, while all other Adobe Suite apps run smoothly on my system.I’ve tried restarting the app, change settings, edit on my SSD but the issue persists. I haven’t made any recent changes to my setup that would explain this. I use Windows 11, release 15.2.1 and Camera Raw 18.2.2Does anyone have suggestions on how to resolve this?Thanks in advance for your help!

I am unable to open Sony ARW files (Lossless Compressed RAW) created by a Sony A1 (ILCE-1) cameras running firmware Ver. 4.00. I am using the latest version of LrC 15.2.1 release and Camera Raw 18.2.2. Has anyone faced the same problem? Any solution would be much appreciated.

Issue: The Point Color functionality has stopped working post upgrade.Steps to reproduce: Mask an area of the image, then go to Point Color under the mask adjustment section, click the dropper icon and then move the cursor to the image. At that point the dropper icon vanishes (as soon as the cursor moves over the image). [I can’t select any colour/area within the mask.I can see previous colours I have selected prior to the upgrade within the Point Color settings and can manipulate them.Expected result: when clicking the dropper icon, I should be able to move to my mask and select a colour to then manipulate. The dropper icon should still visible when moving my cursor across the image. Camera model: Sony FE 24-70 GMIISystem info:Lightroom Classic version: 15.2 [ 202602111402-ec4112e8 ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: enOperating system: Windows 11Version: 11.0.26200Application architecture: x64System architecture: x64Logical processor count: 24Processor speed: 3.8GHzSqLite Versi

Hi, I’ve had a Hard Drive failure and thankfully my backups were good, all except the most recent shoot. However this was still on my 2nd card in the camera so I have the original raw files. Is there a way other than manually locating each file and then renaming it to the filename it has in Lightroom that I can reinstate the files? Lightroom has the original filename in the metadata for each image, but I’d quite like to use the new names as those are the ones my clients are referencing when requesting edits.

Found this in my /etc/hosts file dated 17th March## Adobe Creative Cloud WAM - Start ##166.117.29.222 detect-ccd.creativecloud.adobe.com## Adobe Creative Cloud WAM - End ##On both my Macs running Creative Cloud.I use Lightroom Classic daily as part of a “Creative Cloud” subscription.Just want to confirm what this is for. I’ve done some research and others have reported it as well.Thanks

This post applies to Lightroom Classic and the Lightroom Ecosystem products. Camera Raw feedback can be found here.   Generative Remove makes it easier to remove unwanted objects and distractions with a simple gesture, even on complex backgrounds. For more accurate results, be sure to include the object's shadow in your selection and/or expand its size.    Detect Objects uses AI to find the objects underneath a brushed area. The masked areas will now appear larger than the Early Access version of this feature. You can also circle objects for quicker selection now.    We have also updated the spot selection experience to make it easier to manage variations, switch the fill type, refine the selection area, or re-generate as needed.    Batch updating is also now supported for Generative Remove spots.    Try out the latest updates and share your feedback with us here.

Hi. After updating LR 15.1.1 to version 15.2.1, I can't use mask copying or templates using AI masks. After downgrading LR to the previous version, everything returns to normal.I have all the latest updates installed for Windows and my graphics card.  Lightroom Classic version: 15.2.1 [ 202603161217-0bf813d9 ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: enOperating system: Windows 11 - Business EditionVersion: 11.0.26200Application architecture: x64System architecture: x64Logical processor count: 32Processor speed: 3,4GHzSqLite Version: 3.36.0Adobe GSDK Version: 1.4.0.212CPU Utilisation: 1,0%Power Source: Plugged InBuilt-in memory: 65460,9 MBDedicated GPU memory used by Lightroom: 5158,0MB / 20421,3MB (25%)Real memory available to Lightroom: 65460,9 MBReal memory used by Lightroom: 4498,5 MB (6,8%)Virtual memory used by Lightroom: 10265,8 MBGDI objects count: 1153USER objects count: 5323Process handles count: 3676Memory cache size: 1822,8MBInternal Camera Raw version: 18.2.2 [ 2512 ]Maximu

In the past few weeks, my LRC is failing to identify any people when creating a mask. The people view will detect faces when in Library, but when in edit, and I try to create a people mask, it says “No People Detected” - this is even when there is a clear and obvious person/face as the centre focus of the picture and is happening with all photos. Within my Catalog settings/Metadata, I have “Automatically detect faces in all photos” ticked.Any suggestions on how to resolved this?

I can no longer start Creative Cloud, InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator on my Mac OS Tahoe 26.3.1 on Mac M1. Indesign and Photoshop were fine just days ago and now nothing opens and I do alot of work on Adobe!!! What am I to do?

I’ve noticed that File Explorer now shows a folder called Gallery.  I understand it’s a new feature.  It contains thumbnails of images that have recently been put in the Pictures folder.  That’s all well and good, even nice.  However, I like to remove clutter and was about to clear the Gallery on the assumption that just the thumbnails will be removes, but thought I’d better check first.  It turns out that deleting the thumbnails also deletes the original in the Pictures folder.  That should strike fear in any photographer that uses the Pictures folder as part of their workflow.  Apparently, deleting the Gallery folder can be done safely without threatening the originals but I’ve yet to try it.So, what do you think?  Has Microsoft inadvertently created a potential photographer’s land mine into File Explorer or have I had too many coffees? 

I just updated both Lightroom Classic and Photoshop to the latest versions. After the update, the ‘edit in Photoshop’ option is greyed out.It worked before the update, as I used the feature just before updating, and found out that I hadn’t updated Photoshop and henceforth couldn’t use Generative fill.Updated both Lightroom Classic, Photoshop and Camera Raw, and now the ‘edit in Photoshop’ is greyed out.Does anyone have a solution to this.The files are all stored locally on my PC, and have not been moved during all this When Lightroom finished updating, I noticed that I was going from Lightroom 12 to Lightroom 13, and there was a promt to transfer my catalog to the new version. I did this and then opened Lightroom, and now the edit in Photoshop command is greyed out and not working

Short description:When importing RAW and/or JPG files from my Fuji X-T5 into LrC, despite selecting the "Do not import possible duplicates" function, no duplicates are recognised and all images that have already been imported are imported into LrC again. A “-2” is appended to the file names.Duplicates of my RAW files from my Canon R5 II are recognised as such and are not imported. All settings are the same in both cases.LrC 15.2, macOS Tahoe 26.3, iMac with M3LrC 15.2, macOS Sequoia 15.7.4, MacStudio with M4 MaxLrC 15.2 Windows 11 lasted VersionLong Description:The problem I described above, whereby RAW files from the Fuji X-T5 are not recognised as duplicates during import and are therefore not imported, is a little more complicated than it seems.One type of import works, but the other does not.It works when I import the images as follows:1.

I had an OS crash and all my apps had to be reinstalled.  Now when trying to import photos I am not getting the option to import to a collection like I used to.  It’s a different screen layout.  See screenshot.  Anyone know what happened to that option?  It used to show up on the righmost panel of the screen, with an option to create a new collection if needed.  Thanks.   

I have just bought Lightroom Classic, and when I try to open a raw file in it, there is a modal dialog telling me that Lightroom will automatically sync my files with the cloud. The only option it gives me, is “ok” … but the thing is that I only want my images to be on my computer hard disk and no where else!I HATE having all your cloud solutions shoveled down my throat. I didn’t ask for a TB in your cloud, and I dont intent to use it at all, but I was never given the opportunity to say no thank you!Now I am not sure if I can use your product at all, without having you guys uploading my entire foto collection to your cloud? What the feck happened to good old concent here? Why isn’t this an opt-in possibility, or at least give us a chance to opt it out, for crying out loud? 😠

LightRoom Classic 15.2 build: 202602111402-ec4112e8Only this release has a fast memory leak in the graphics card memory (Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB).  It  uses up almost all the memory just exporting 8 files to Tif to be edited in PTGUI Pro that also uses graphics memory and crashes repeatedly until exiting LRC, and that fixes the problem.However it is not efficient to have to close LR every time I export files to either Photoshop or PTgui Pro.Lightroom Classic 15.2build: 202602111402-ec4112e8MS Win 11 Prov: 10.0.26200 Build 26200x-64 based PCASUS motherboard Proart z790-creator wifi96GB memoryGraphics: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GBC: drive has 495 GB free.Lightroom database and photo collection on 2 other drives has always run smoothly.Kind regards from Hans
