On my vacation, I edit some of my photos on a mobile device in Lightroom.

When I get home to my PC they must all be loaded into Lightroom Classic.
How do I transfer the original files to the PC?

    If you enable sync of your Lightroom Classic catalog, then all photos in the Creative Cloud get downloaded by Lightroom Classic. In Preferences- Lightroom Sync you can define where Lightroom Classic should store them and whether it should create dated subfolders.

      Thank you - but this will only give me the jpg-file on the PC.
      What I am asking for, is how to get the raw-file on the PC, and get it
      connected to the adjustments I made on the mobile device.

      What - are you saying that the raw file always are uploadet to the cloud when I work on it at my Samsung tablet?
      I thought the raw file stayed on my mobile device., and only the preview in jpg  were send to the cloud.

      Thank you so far...


      Yes, that is what I am saying. If you shoot in raw and import that raw file into Lightroom mobile, then that raw file gets uploaded to the cloud. Same if you use the built-in camera app of Lightroom mobile and shoot in DNG. And what's in the cloud gets downloaded into Lightroom Classic.

      in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

      p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
