Lightroom CC Keeps saying 'Unable to Connect to Network'

Report · Nov 07, 2019

Trying to switch to Lightroom CC but I keep getting 'Unable to Connect to Network' in sync status. If I restart the application it might work for 50-60 photos and then returns to this error message. I'm trying to sync ~12K mobile photos before another 40K RAW images so obviously need to be able to let this run in the background and over night. Have tried restarting the computer as well to no luck.

Any other suggestions on what I can try?

I have the same problem. And when I try to quit Lightroom, it won't go, then I force quit it, and lose all my editing 😩.

I am also having this problem. Every once in a while, while editing, the app will say it can't connect to the internet even though my wifi has been strong the whole time. Once it says that the only way to get the app to try to connect again is to quit (via command console, quitting the app normally does not work) and reopen, by which point I have lost all progress from my session.

Is there a way to save the work locally to batch sync for later? I have only been working with lightroom for a few days, but am considering alternatives as the constant setbacks are unbearable.
