Missing sidecar xmp files in Lightroom Downloader

[Guest]

Hi,

Anyone else having difficulty in downloading the sidecar xmp files after edits done using Lightroom, using the Downloader app? I don't know if the problem for me is on the client, account, or desktop side, but the client version is Lightroom ipad.

I have the Mobile Premium subscription. I can download the original DNG, but the edits made in the ios app don't come through. Adobe support insist its a subscription problem for Apple to solve - they think I have only 2GB (although lightroom.adobe says I have 100GB), of which I am using only 15GB.

Also, I see no actual download links on lightroom.adobe photos or albums (only sharing options, which I think produce jpgs?).

I hadn't used the app or download for a while, and initially it wouldn't sync properly, so I updated it today plus cleared out the ~/Library/.../Adobe Lightroom Downloader folders. Still no luck though.

I'd be grateful if anyone thinks this is a normal experience, or even better, how I can get the file mods. I've given up on Adobe support with this, and  I'm pretty close to cancelling the subscription and shifting to apps and storage that I can directly control.

thanks lots!

I'm not familiar with the "Downloader App". What is it?

"Downloader App" -> I meant Adobe Lightroom Downloader.

It downloads the cloud photo library to a local folder.

Some info here:

Download synced Lightroom photos and videos from the cloud to a computer

I think you are in the wrong forum. This is the Lightroom Classic forum, where such a downloader is not needed.

Youre right thanks. Not sure how that happened. I'll repost there.
