    Catalogs Upgrade LR6 to Lightroom Classic

    First, have a look at Victoria's book Moving to a New Computer. Lr 6 is no longer available. I believe Adobe has shutdown the download site. That would be the best approach and should be covered in the book.

    Catalogs All photos in all my Years and months and cameras etc have vanished in LrC by subscription when I opened LrC a few minutes ago.

    If you are using this Box, and have it mapped as a local folder on your MAC, and use that local folder in LrC, then my guess is: If when you open LrC you don't see a whole bunch of missing photos then it sounds like LrC was used to delete your photos. If you see a whole bunch of missing photos...

    Catalogs Starting again in Lightroom classic

    Just some comments from someone who started over with a fresh, empty catalogue: DON'T CREATE A NEW CATALOGUE. If you have a catalogue, start with that. It will be upgraded if it's old. You lose information on changes you have already to the photos even if you have XMP files. Use LrC to delete...

    CC App Hardware Upgrade

    Library module Focus Distance not displaying on Nikon mirrorless (OK on DLSR)

    For more value information check out the Focus Points Plug-in. It shows you the focus point plus DOF. Useful when diagnosing issues such as where was I focused. The 1.26M value here is the same as the LrC Metadata.

    Catalogs Lightroom kills my PC after a few hours

    That was my belief stemming from the days when the MS versions were not existent or poor. I don't have duplicate programs running though. I discovered that recently with unexpected delays in launching applications. I turned off Malwares 'Ransomware' and 'Exploit' protection which had not...

    Print module Do I need to calibrate and if so how?

    Interestingly enough, I've been notified of an update to my SpyderX Pro.

    Catalogs Lightroom kills my PC after a few hours

    Oh, sorry @BobT. I didn't appreciate you may have been using native tools.

    Catalogs Lightroom kills my PC after a few hours

    You need to be looking at all the Windows resources when this happens; CPU, GPU,memory, disk. If necessary, open the Resource Manager from the Task Manager and see which processes are taking up the most of a resource.

    Develop module photo merge for panorama error - content left out

    I can see the missing sneakers but that does not seem like a panorama picture to me. It looks like you have a stack of pictures of the same frame where you move sneakers around. I'm used to pano stitching and aligning photos taken over an area; horizontally, vertically or both.

    Print module Do I need to calibrate and if so how?

    Have you calibrated your screen? Have you tried a Soft Proof I found that with my Epson XP-15000 I had to set 'Print Adjustment->Brightness' to +16

    CC App Should I start learning LrC if it will ultimately be replaced by LR?

    Can you print from Lr yet? Not sure that matters to you.

    CC App Should I start learning LrC if it will ultimately be replaced by LR?

    Keep in mind Adobe keeps adding features to LrC which are not added to Lr at the same time. So, to me. convergence is not evident. IMHO, I don't believe the controls are that different between the two so expect generic skills to be easily transferable. Also, understand that your journey is...

    Using AI to analyze photos (sorry if this is a repost)

    That makes for an interesting scenario. Push one button and you have one AI creating photo entries. Push another button and another AI judges them. Push another button and you get yet another AI reviewing and commenting on the competition ;-)

    Using AI to analyze photos (sorry if this is a repost)

    I guess it was inevitable. It would be interesting to see the effect of multiple passes through this process where it analyzes its own recommendations. I guess the next step is AI Judges in competitions.

    Catalogs Lightroom Not Backing Up on Sequoia Mac on LR 14.1

    Agree if you have a separate backup strategy but the OP seems to be stuck on basic LrC backup. I have a daily backup of Pictures, LrC files to an external drive. LrC backups also go to the external drive.

    Catalogs Lightroom Not Backing Up on Sequoia Mac on LR 14.1

    Not sure what you mean. Each catalog will be backed up separately. Your backups will do you no good if your primary drive crashes. Best practice is to backup to a different drive. Your external drive would be a good destination. For some additional insights, see Victoria's BLOG's on backups...

    CC App Price increases announced (may be able to avoid)

    No offense but with the confusion I'm reading about, how do you know he's right? Asking because I'm digging into this for myself after the holidays.

    Searching META data for specific parameters / Words

    Thanks for the clarification. It appears that you would only have needed for the LIBRARY module in LrC. You have no need for DEVELOP or other modules. As you said this makes LrC expensive. It sounds like you update the METADATA in the JPG or PNG file. One thought, since I'm familiar with...

    Searching META data for specific parameters / Words

    Some clarification please. Are you looking for a way to use Lightroom Classic's (LrC) GUI to be used to search? This is possible in the Library Module however LrC is not a multi-user environment plus there is a danger of someone inadvertently changing data. Depending on the frequency of your...

    Develop module Problem Exporting

    Just curious if Task Manager is reporting 100% disk activity but no I/O. Everything would freeze for 2 or 3 minutes then resume. This was a problem i had with W10. No one could figure out the problem. I finally cloned a new drive and it stopped. I still use the original disk as a backup. If...

    CC App Recommended Specs for New Mac

    Agreed but is this posted somewhere @Paul McFarlane ? I happen to see 32GB recommended in a post a couple of days ago. My Apple dealer was trying to tell me 16GB was enough They should add "... but your consumption may vary ;-)

    CC App Recommended Specs for New Mac

    I'm making the move from Windows to MAC Mini and explicitly chose not to use an Apple display or MACbook because I was happy with my Asus ProArt display. Personally, unless you are looking at a laptop, an external monitor gives you more flexibility in selecting a screen. On a related note, the...
