New IPad Air running OS 14.4.2, I am unable to import photos from camera roll by clicking on the import icon in lower right corner of LR mobile screen.  I can SEND a photo TO LR from camera roll by clicking on the share icon in camer roll app.  I have tried rebooting iPad with no success, but am trying to avoid deleting and re-downloading the LR app for fear of losing all my data.  Anyone run into a similar problem?

You may not yet have given Lightroom access to Photos (a recent iOS change). Open the phone's Settings>Privacy>Photos>Lightroom menu and check the All Photos option.

Jim,

 

That's the obvious place to look, but unfortunately that's not the problem.  It is checked correctly.  When i try to import, it flashes to camera roll, then to the same edited image, and not necessarily the last image edited, but just one in particular.  I might try deleting that image and see what happens.

Does it help to go back and then trying to select the intended image?

Thanks,
Ignacio
