I use virtual copies to try different crops and development steps. I now have several images where the virtual copy is my preferred edit. Is there a way to permanently replace the original edits with the virtual copy edits? There was an old post on the Adobe forums that suggested "Click on the...
Thanks, John - that did not do anything for the problem, although the Helper.lrdata name changed from Lightroom Catalog-2-v12 Helper.lrdata to Lightroom Catalog-2-v13 Helper.lrdata. I have attached screen shots of all the filters.
Apparently LR updated to 13.0.1 automatically - I opened LR yesterday and got a message about updating the catalog. In two days of use I find it is much slower in the Develop Module than previously (macOS 13.6, 2020 Retina 5K, 40 GB RAM) and frequently there is nothing shown for metadata for...
Thanks @Califdan! That worked fine. As you suggested, my preferences were set to "open most recent" but I do not understand how the most recent catalog was in a backup folder and not in the original location. Could that have been part of a LR update? I have changed my preferences to use the...
I have Lightroom Classic version: 12.5 which is up to date. In the folder that I originally specified for Lightroom Catalogs I now have folders for Lightroom 6 and Lightroom 8 as well as multiple files for Lightroom Catalog-2-v10, -v10-v11 and -v12. The -v12 files have not been modified since...
Thanks, Paul - the folder in question already had several dozen photos imported intl LR, but in trying your suggestions I realized that I was trying to import from my backup drive, not my photos drive. No problem now.
Previously I have imported dozens of .HEIC images from my iPhone to compliment my related photos. I normally move the .HEIC images from the download folder to the proper camera image folder and then import them into Lightroom. Recently when I tried to do this, the .HEIC images do not appear in...
Thank you, Johan, the default profile may have been sRGB as I'm sure it wasn't any of the others - I see the notice "The sRGB color space cannot encompass the full range of colors available within Lightroom." which appears for all but ProPhoto RGB .That may have been the warning - I didn't...
A while ago I installed Aurora HDR and have been using it, mostly with good results. At that time I didn't realize that the Aurora HDR installation set-up an External Editor preset. Recently I installed Topaz DeNoise AI and had to go to Preferences > External Editing to set it up as an external...
I save my images by capture date in a parent folder which is the year of capture, I recently moved all my images to an external drive and updated Lightroom - no problem except that in the Library, the parent folders for 2020 and 2021 are missing - all of the capture date folders are displayed...
Thanks everyone for your comments and suggestions!
I just ordered a new iMac which I will upgrade RAM from 8 GB to 40 GB. Rather than invest in a multi bay enclosure at this time, I bought a 1 TB external SSD just for photos. I still have to decide on a workflow (where to save new images before...
