I cannot get my LR to edit multiple photos at once

[unaschade]

Alright. I haven't used LightRoom since before Creative Cloud (I used photoshop for everything up until yesterday but it keeps giving me errors and I am on a time crunch). I am trying to edit a batch of photos and CANNOT for the life of me get it to apply the edits to all opened photos. Any helpful info is appreciated!! I have v4.4 currently 100% updated.

It isn't possible to batch edit that way in the Cloud version. What you must do is make changes to a single image and then copy using the standard copy procedure and then use the Standard paste option to paste the changes to the other images.

In Lightroom Classic there are other options, but they are not available in Lightroom.

OMG really? That's a huge downfall - holy guacamole. Is there still a way to download Classic do you know?

Yes, but it may or may not be available depending on the plan you have with Adobe.

At a minimum I believe there is a trial though. Just open the Creative Cloud App, and look for it under applications.

Of course Lightroom Classic can "still" be downloaded. It all depends on which plan you are subscribed to. Apparently some users are under the impression that Lightroom Classic is old and that Lightroom is the new replacement. Lightroom Classic is still very much alive, still being developed, is really for a different type of user in my opinion. Look at the creative cloud application manager. If it is available for you to install under the plan you are subscribed to then all you have to do is install it. Otherwise, you may want to consider trying to change plans.
