    Lightroom not importing photos

    I'm reorganising where data is on HD and External SDD. I've copied several folders with their images from HD to the External using Capture One as these images were all edited in that and this way the settings get copied across. LR is saying there are 394 images to import, when I try to sync the...

    My experience with an M1 iMac. So far...

    Really helpful, thanks again. I had assumed that I'd need SSD, so the 7200rpm HDs add another option (and more research!). I see that the OWC drive you've got states 497MB/s, so that means that USB C SSD external drives which are much more keenly priced are viable. Do you notice any difference...

    My experience with an M1 iMac. So far...

    Thanks for posting this, I ordered mine this week and am currently researching 2TB external SSD drives. I'd seen you recommend the onboard 2TB SSD on another thread, so opted for that. It seems that a big premium is paid for TB3 which I'm prepared to pay if the data transfer is quick enough so...

    LR10 Classic very laggy compared to 9.4 using Mojave 10.14.6 on iMac

    Thanks again Cletus, No anti-virus running, GPU is off as per normal. I'll look at the other things when current editing load is reduced. It'd be very expensive to upgrade the legacy apps, one essential one has gone to subscription model with what I feel are 'ambitious' fees, the other is...

    LR10 Classic very laggy compared to 9.4 using Mojave 10.14.6 on iMac

    Thanks Jim, sorry to both you & Cletus for being a numpty! Not used this before, but here's what it has in its entirety, using copy function Lightroom Classic version: 9.4 [ 202008061458-dbb2971e ] License: Creative Cloud Language setting: en Operating system: Mac OS 10 Version: 10.14.6...

    LR10 Classic very laggy compared to 9.4 using Mojave 10.14.6 on iMac

    Thanks for your response Clee. There are 1.4TB free on the 3TB Fusion drive. I've not updated to Catalina as it'd make at least 2 other lots of software inoperable. Yes I have looked on a number of occasions for updated CUDA driver for graphics, but none seems available, certainly not from...

    LR10 Classic very laggy compared to 9.4 using Mojave 10.14.6 on iMac

    Faced with having to do a lot of editing, I've now reverted to Classic V9.4 and will monitor future updates to see whether there's any mention of improved performance for my computer/software setup.

    LR10 Classic very laggy compared to 9.4 using Mojave 10.14.6 on iMac

    Having made upgrade 2 days ago I'm finding the lag intolerable. Typically waiting 5-10s after every operation and slow all round. This is working on the same images that were lag free in 9.4. Is anyone else getting the same issue? Activity monitor is showing that it's using less RAM than 9.4...

    Deregister LR6 Perpetual so I can let my daughter register & use

    Thanks for replies and sorry for delay. Having read the diatribe from Adobe, saw the ridiculous T&Cs plus extended timescale then to add insult not got any response from their online chat, we decided she should buy On1 as it will fulfil all she needs to do.

    Deregister LR6 Perpetual so I can let my daughter register & use

    Hi all, I've searched under deregister & not found what procedure is. I bought perpetual licence, ages ago (upgrades from LR1...). I'm now using CC on subscription. My daughter is now getting into photography with my old Fuji X-T1 and I'd like to let her use my old version/licence on her...

    Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo

    Oh I really hope not. Have Time Machine backups... Seems odd that it's LR that can't read it, shut down the software, then it's absolutely fine once reopen. FWIW it's a 3TB iMac Fusion drive, so presumably not cheap! Will try Disk First Aid.

    Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo

    I'm now getting this 'lightroom has encountered problems.. ' occasionally. Has happened twice in last week. Quitting & restarting LR at least once seems to clear the issue. However I'm doing nothing different than I have for the last year! Photos it has happened to have been read perfectly fine...

    Updating Develop Presets to XMP - happens every time I open LR

    Thanks Johan, I found 4 folders which were read only, all the others had been converted to ~~preset name. I've now deleted the ones causing the issue along with some profiles from 2007(!) from ancient LR versions and this has solved the matter. Much appreciate your help

    Updating Develop Presets to XMP - happens every time I open LR

    This happens every time I open LR Classic CC on my Laptop, my desktop machine did it once with the same presets. Any idea how to stop this happening please? Catalogue settings etc are the same as for my desktop as are OSX and LR version

    Missing Profiles with VSCO Presets

    Thanks for explaining that Victoria. Given that the VSCO seems to be doing something, that'll suffice if I need a look from processing in line with my normal LR presets. It was most beneficial when I was shooting both Nikon & Fuji at same event to make all images look the same.
