Hi there,

 

We are sorry about the experience with Lightroom.

 

Would you mind sharing the version of Lightroom you are using along with the operating system? If you are using Lightroom Classic. you can check: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/help/locate-missing-photos.html

 

Regards,

Nikunj

Lightroom5.. ? Is that the standalone version from 2013?

From the Adobe link-

https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/kb/macos-catalina-compatibility.html

"older versions of Lightroom Classic were neither designed nor tested to work on macOS Catalina. They are not supported in any way for use on macOS Catalina."

Lightroom-5 is a 'Perpetual Legacy version' not supported.

 

Adobe offers an updated version of Lightroom for a Fee. It is LR-Classic 9.1 for $9.99 a month and you get the newest version of Photoshop, Bridge and ACR.

Regards. My System: Lightroom-Classic 13.2 Photoshop 25.5, ACR 16.2, Lightroom 7.2, Lr-iOS 9.0.1, Bridge 14.0.2, Windows-11.

Your first post stated-

"source file are offline or missing."

If a file is 'missing' you cannot make an Export copy.

You have to relink Lightroom with the correct folder location of the original camera file.

See these articles for answers to 'Missing files':

Also, the Destination folder for an Exported file is important- it has to be available (like an external drive connected), and the folder must have full Read/Write permissions.

Regards. My System: Lightroom-Classic 13.2 Photoshop 25.5, ACR 16.2, Lightroom 7.2, Lr-iOS 9.0.1, Bridge 14.0.2, Windows-11.
