    Is Lightroom Classic end-of-life?

    When my LR6 perpetual no longer works with my OS or a new camera can't be recognized any longer -- so long Adobe. I will not pay "perpetual" monthly fees for it.

    lightroom has stopped working message

    Man, I love this site. I was having the same issues as the OP. I tried a fix from Victoria's book, ....Lightroom 5...the missing FAQ, and it worked for a short time. Today I was getting the "stopped working" message every time I would try to make a Develop adjustment. Came here looking for...

    Filmstrip and grid view do not match

    I have LR 6.4 (desktop version). For the first time this morning I experienced the same issue as Brent. I would be on an image in grid view and click an image in the filmstrip and the picture in the grid would remain. The reverse occurred, too, click on an image in the filmstrip and the...

    Single Keyword Search

    Thanks Jim. Johan actually gave me an idea. Many of my pictures have various keywords beyond the "root' keyword. However, all of my keywords have a hierarchy. The hierarchy's parent keyword is Person, Place, Thing, etc. My "root" keyword falls under Place. All of my others, thus far, can...

    Single Keyword Search

    I'm sure there is a simple answer but it escapes me. I recently did an import in which, upon import, all photos were given a keyword to represent the session. As I have been going through the photos I have added keywords to some photos but all still contain the original root keyword. Is...

    Backup to XHD - what files?

    My current set up has LR5 on my internal (C:) hard drive. When I import images they are not saved to the internal drive but rather an external HD (K:) in folders named for the date taken. Also, during the import I have a second copy saved to a second external HD (L:). The K: HD also backs up...

    Purple Label

    Thanks to both of you. What I thought was the toolbar turned out to be a filter at the bottom. The toolbar was disengaged.

    Purple Label

    I know this is going to be a quick answer but after searching this forum and a couple of LR books I haven't found one. I know that the yellow, red, green and blue labels can be assigned and unassigned with the keyboard keys 6-9. Purple is not assignable via a shortcut. So, once I assign...

    Importing as Second Copy - Naming Convention

    Thanks everyone. No idea how in the past I was able to save to both EHDs with the same naming convention but not anymore.

    Importing as Second Copy - Naming Convention

    I apologize if this is covered elsewhere. I did a search on this forum and after combing through 15 pages of topics decided to ask. I even Googled and didn't find an answer. I use 2 external hard drives for importing and storing photos. No photo files are kept on the internal HD where LR...

    What's that tiny minus sign on the left of my keywords

    When you click on an image the minus sign(s) that appears to the left of the keyword(s) indicate that the keyword is associated with that image. It may be several individual words within the list that are on a standalone basis or part of a hierarchy. For example I may have a picture of a...

    LR 5.5 very slow in Library rendering and Develop module adjustments.

    Ollie sorry to hear the engineers haven't responded. For the life of me I don't know why but since I changed the screen from rolling pictures I have not had any issues. I wish you luck in getting a solution soon! Michael

    LR 5.5 very slow in Library rendering and Develop module adjustments.

    I'm back with some information that may or may not be of any help to any with Win 8.0 or 8.1. It sure made a difference in my system this evening. Ollie I don't know if you may have the same setup I have in Win 7 but you might. And, I can't guaranty that tomorrow I won't have issues again...

    LR 5.5 very slow in Library rendering and Develop module adjustments.

    Ollie you are not alone. After posting that the upgrade appeared to speed up my system I am now back to watching it boot up and literally watch the panels build slowly. Win 8.1 has a bunch of apps loaded but when I look at task manager none of it is running EXCEPT my Norton AV. I never had...
