Ah ok thanks. However, I just checked and not a single one of my albums has “store locally” checked. So that doesn’t seem to explain the 65gb of locally stored copies.
For me there is a reason to keep them in the camera roll as I maintain both photos and LR libraries for various reason. But that isn’t really the point of this thread.
This thread is about why LR is taking up 65gb of storage with locally stored copies when it is a cloud-based solution? My Apple...
Around 25,000 images.
It "re-imported" them but didn't create duplicates. So I'm not sure if it imported them and matched them somehow? All I know is that for ages my little cloud icon in the app had the moving dots going, and when I tapped on that it would say "importing X images". The X...
Thanks for the reply. Sorry should have included more info.
I am using the new Lightroom (cloud-based version) of the iOS and Desktop (Mac) apps. I get confused with the new naming, so to be clear I am NOT using the older LR Classic app in any way.
I'm unable to install ios14 this morning as I don't have enough space on my 128gb phone. The culprit is Lightroom, which has around 65GB of "locally stored copies".
I've found a ton of posts about this online, but no solution as to how I can remove these locally stored copies. I have "Only...
Think I just solved this. It is in fact a permissions issue.
I went to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy
Then I selected the Photos app in the left column
I could see the Adobe Lightroom CC app listed there, but the box allowing access was unchecked - check this box
Then I...
Not daft - I always remind my Mum to do this ;)
I did try restarting with a few different sequences - restart and go straight to Lightroom and try vs restart, open photos and allow to update to iCloud, then try, etc. But no luck.
I found this video...
I am trying to use the migration tool to migrate my apple photos library. But after I start, it sits at 1% progress for a while, then I get an error window saying "Could not access apple photos library".
I have read this help page (Resolve issues while migrating Apple Photos to Lightroom CC)...
Hi Victoria,
Thanks for the reply. I think your idea is the way to go. I'm going to try doing the Photos migration. I have then exported only the "developed" photos from LR classic as a new catalogue and will migrate this separately.
Hi all,
A few years ago I was using Lightroom (classic desktop) to manage all my photos. At some point I decided to move away from Lightroom as I wasn't using it that much and giving the new Apple Photos a crack. I went through a fairly pain-staking process of exporting all my Lightroom photos...
Hi,
When I import into lightroom, I use the option to create folders for YYYY then MM then DD to store the image files.
I have started testing lightroom mobile as a way to get images taken on my phone into my catalogue. However, I notice that the images, when downloaded to my computer, are...
Hi,
I have a whole bunch of invalid DNG's. At first it seemed they were appearing at random, but I have now discovered that they are from a specific period and camera.
- They are all from a Fujifilm XE-2
- Shot using multiple lenses
- All from the period 17th Jan, 2015, to 08th April, 2015
-...
I recently moved my entire OSX Photos collection to Lightroom. I moved the files in photos on my mac to lightroom on my mac.
Moving forward, I will import photos from my iPhone directly to Lightroom. I was using iCloud Photos, so the photos I already moved from Photos on my mac also reside on...
