You need to ensure that 'Highest Quality Uploads' is enabled. Below is copied from a Google search using the title of this thread. Go to your Instagram profile and tap the three horizontal lines (menu) in the top-right corner. Select "Settings" and then "Account" > "Data Usage". Make sure that "High-Quality Uploads" is toggled on. Ensure "Use Less Mobile Data" is turned off, as this can reduce image quality.

@heinelg You can specify a non-default different location for application(s) via the Creative Cloud app's Preferences > Apps tab. See attached screenshot

> I need to keep copies of old catalogues or would a couple of the more recent ones be sufficient? The more recent catalog backups are sufficient. The backup strategy for your images (local and downloaded) is a different discusion. I'm sure there are dozens, if not hundreds of videos on Youtube providing guidance/solutions.

I called it quits when a neigbour asked why I was standing in the street photographing a checkered chart with a 400mm lens at about 40 metres away. People thinking photographers are mad is one thing. Standing in the street proving it is another 😉

Lens profiles for non-raw files are very rare. Adobe only created a handful themselves when lens profiles where first introduced about 15 years back. You're only hope is that someone created a proffile for there own use, which is a very long shot, especially given the procedure is time consuming, requires bright even illumination, etc. I've provided a link below to a blog post that I wrote back in 2010. Would I go through this process again? Not while we still have a sun in the sky! https://www.computer-darkroom.com/blog/lens-correction-profiles/

I know next to nothing about PureRaw. So, can't offer any help on whether it has an auto stack preference. In the past, it certainly had some irritating behaviour re collections. Back to LrC. You should check that the LrC Library > Stacking option for Auto Stacking by capture time hasn't been enabled.

Ian Lyons · ‎Mar 19, 2025

On your hard disk. Custom (e.g. purchased) presets, custom profiles, etc are stored in a folder called CameraRaw > Settings. They're placed there to enable sharing with other Adobe photo apps. I've attached a screenshot showing the macOS path.

Ian Lyons · ‎Mar 19, 2025

You should raise queries re Camera Raw in the relevant forum https://community.adobe.com/t5/camera-raw/ct-p/ct-camera-raw?page=1&sort=latest_replies&filter=all&lang=all&tabid=discussions

For images that have been edited externally (e.g. Photoshop) you can disable auto stacking in the 'External Editing' panel of preferences as shown in attached screenshot. For merged images such as pano and hdr you disable stacking in the relevant panel. If above is not waht you're looking for then please provide example.

Ian Lyons · ‎Mar 18, 2025

A screenshot of how you're configuring the Export dialog would be helpful. You can upload it to the forum using the button highlighted on attached screenshot.

Ian Lyons · ‎Mar 18, 2025

You can import the presets. Doing so will put them in the correct location/folder. I've attached a screenshot that should help.

Ian Lyons · ‎Mar 17, 2025

Normally, the mask should automatically regenerate in the correct position. If it doesn't, then use 'Update AI Settings' to force mask regeneration.

Ian Lyons · ‎Mar 17, 2025

Both LrC and Camera Raw can export images in JPEG XL. Have you tried it?

Ian Lyons · ‎Mar 17, 2025

@Hautecouture Please start a new thread and describe exactly what you're seeing. If possible provide a screenshot displaying the issue. It would also be helpful if you included a copy of your System Info. You can obtain this from the application Help > System Info menu item.

Ian Lyons · ‎Mar 17, 2025

I can't reproduce on Mac that I'm currently working on. Have you tried resetting the LrC preference file?

Ian Lyons · ‎Mar 15, 2025

A quick and easy way to avoid having the rebuild your preferences after resetting is to make a copy of the new file and keeping it safe for reuse. When necessary you can use this copy to replace the old or corrupt file. You can find the location , etc fort he Lightroom Classic preference file below linked Adobe Help document. https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/lightroom-classic/kb/preference-file-and-other-file-locations.html

Ian Lyons · ‎Jan 20, 2025

Have you tried resetting the preferences? If not, then follow the instructions for Method 1 in below linked Adobe Help document.

Ian Lyons · ‎Jan 20, 2025

You'll need to follow the instructions for offline install/activation provided by @kglad in below linked thread https://community.adobe.com/t5/download-install-discussions/lightroom-6-on-a-new-pc/m-p/14638713#M580921

Ian Lyons · ‎Jan 20, 2025

@Holten Start a new thread and ensure that you provide more details on the version of LrD you're using. Likewise, the operating system. Better stiil, provide a copy of your System Info. This can be obtained from the LrC HelP > System Info menu item.

Ian Lyons · ‎Jan 19, 2025

@F. McLion The OP resolved the issue by cleaning the dust from inside the computer, thus allowing the fans to properly cool the CPU/GPU.

Ian Lyons · ‎Jan 17, 2025

Did you look at this thread https://community.adobe.com/t5/camera-raw-discussions/p-technology-preview-reflection-removal-cr/td-p/14963699 If not, then please do so as it may contain helpful information. It would also be helpful if you would provide a screesnhot showing the aberrations. Note that I'm changing the title of your thread to include 'Reflection Removal'. Your post may also be merged with above thread.

Ian Lyons · ‎Jan 17, 2025

You'll need to use the off-line install and activation procedure described by 'kglad' in below linked thread https://community.adobe.com/t5/download-install-discussions/lightroom-6-on-a-new-pc/m-p/14638713#M580921

> Dedicated GPU memory used by Lightroom: 362,2MB / 1999,2MB (18%) Your GPU is based on hardware first released in 2014. Furthermore, it has insuficient memory to meet the minimum requirements for AI Denoise.

Edit Time is the last time the image was edited

Ian Lyons · ‎Jan 16, 2025

You need to select the import preset that you want to delete, then choose the delete option. See attached screenshot for Import Presets menu options.

Ian Lyons · ‎Jan 14, 2025

You can delete the blank shortcut, then make a new one.

Ian Lyons · ‎Jan 14, 2025

Have you contacted vendor support for 'PhotoSweeper' to check whether they have any suggestions?

Ian Lyons · ‎Jan 13, 2025

Have you tried resetting the LrC preference file? If not, then please try it. The procedure is set out in Method 1 at below linked Adobe Help document. You should also check to see whether there is file ending 'lrcat.lock'. If you find such a file, then delete it and try restarting LrC again. https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/help/reset-preferences.html

Ian Lyons · ‎Jan 13, 2025

Have you tried signing out then back into your account?

Ian Lyons · ‎Jan 13, 2025

Are you using the computer whilst the previews are being built?
