Lightroom catalog disappeared

[Kris0D4C]

Hello,

I started using Lightroom as a free trial user 2 years ago. After the trial I continued using the free mobile version on my iPhone.

Today while opening the app all my pictures and presets (2 years work stored on the phone) were gone. 

When I connect to itunes with my desktop and go to Lightroom - File Sharing there´s a folder "5b0aefb48f9f488b9356b71967f8fd5b" of 1,4 MB and a folder "DepthFiles" of 3,8 MB but I can´t seem to copy or open it so no idea what´s in it.

Anybody has an idea of how I can get my pictures back?!

Would hate to loose 2 years of editing work :s

Thanks,

Kris

Literally the same happened to me!

There is some advice in iTunes here:

Alternatively, do you back up to iCloud, and if so, one option could be to wipe your device and restore from a backup previous to the Lightroom 5.4.0 Update, which I think was August 18th?

This though may not be as smooth as it sounds and could lead to other non-Lightroom issues.

Or maybe use a spare device and restore from an old iCloud back up and see if that works?
