'The file appears to be unsupported or damaged' - in Lightroom Cloud on a new Mac

[Bence5E39]

Hello Everybody,

I have a new M1 Mac and after installing Lightroom (cloud-based) the albums are appearing correctly on the left side of the application, but none of the images are showing up. When I click on any of the images it says 'the file appears to be unsupported or damaged'.

When I use lightroom.adobe.com, everything is shown perfectly. 

Could anybody please help?

Thanks,

Bence

Hi Bence,

Thanks for reaching out. Which version of the application have you installed? Do you have another file with the same filename? Do other applications read the file correctly?

Where are the images located?

Try to move the original file somewhere else. Chances are, the finder will show that some data is unreadable. Select all the items second, right-click -> New Folder with items. Move that folder out, start your Lightroom catalog and point it at the new folder.

(This can work if you can read the file in another application.)

Thanks,

Ranjisha

Hi Ranjisha,

I have version 5.5. The files were on an SD card, I moved to the SSD, but the problem remained.

One strange thing I noticed, is that the file sizes are too small, all of them 279 bytes.

Kind Regards,

Bence

Hi Bence, sorry for the delay in response, and thanks for sharing the details.

Can you please give Full Disk Access to Lightroom CC and see if it helps? Steps: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/quick-tips-how-to-give-full-disk-access....

Let us know how it goes.

Hi Ranjisha,

Thanks for the response!

After giving full disk access to Lightroom CC the problem still remained.

In that case, you can try resetting Lightroom's preferences using the steps mentioned here: https://adobe.ly/2JSym5e.

Please back up your presets prior to resetting the preferences. Let us know how it goes.

Would you mind sharing the file with us so that we can check it on our end?

Ranjisha,

The log collector says that it uploads automatically to Adobe the logs.

I have uploaded it one more time :

Dear Bence, 

Did you ever solve this problem?  I have the same problem and cannot find any answers.
