    Print module ICC Profile Location on Mac OS

    Are these profiles CMYK based perhaps? Lightroom Classic does not support CMYK based profiles.

    Print module ICC Profile Location on Mac OS

    I believe you must place them in the User/Library/ColorSync folder, not the root Library folder. This folder can be hidden: https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/access-hidden-user-library-files.html

    27 inch Monitor resolution 2K or 4K

    That’s debatable. A print at 300ppi has pixels that you can’t see individually. That means that judging this on screen at 100% may be more misleading than useful. Maybe viewing at 50% will give you a better idea what the print will look like. A 4K screen would actually look closer to the printed...

    27 inch Monitor resolution 2K or 4K

    Nobody puts a gun against your head and forces you use 1920 x 1080 @2 resolution on a 4K monitor. You can use 2560 x 1440 on that monitor too. I already explained how MacOS deals with that. I could be wrong but I believe Windows deals with it in a similar way, if you set the monitor to the...

    Import Separate Import defaults for RAW and JPEG imported in same batch

    Auto simply does not give a good result in combination with the Adaptive profile. Sometimes it may look fine, but often the result is way overexposed. Interestingly, shift-clicking on individual sliders like Highlights, Shadows, Whites and Blacks (which is Auto for those sliders) does work well...

    Import Separate Import defaults for RAW and JPEG imported in same batch

    Yes, that still applies. However, for some camera brands the built-in profile may be partial, so Lightroom still has a profile of its own. For my Sony lenses this is the case. Sony lenses have a built-in profile, but that profile only corrects chromatic aberration, not distortion. So Lightroom...

    Print module Output resolution vs Resolution

    Yep. Please note that the resolution is in dpi, so dots per inch, not pixels per inch. Because this is an inkjet printer, you could also say that it means ‘droplets per inch’.

    Develop module bright sky areas around silhouetted tree limbs

    This is a known limitation of AI masks. Basically there are two ways to try to fix this: 1: Use a brush and gradually brush away the mask where it touches the trees. It means you’ll still have this halo, but because you increase it and make it very gradual, it doesn’t show that much. 2: Use a...

    Print module Output resolution vs Resolution

    I believe it’s a little different. The resolution you set in the Lightroom print module is indeed the resolution the printer should use in pixels per inch. The printer will use many dots per pixel however. A modern Epson consumer printer has a hardware resolution of up to 4800 dots per inch, for...

    Lightroom cloud, a new Mac and a new NAS

    I don't think so. The library is just a local cache, to avoid having to download every last bit over and over again. The cloud takes precedent, so if Lightroom detects a library on a new machine that wasn't created on that machine, it will most likely ignore it and download everything again...

    Develop module copying a single image edit

    Another way is to save the edits to XMP. Then copy the XMP file to the other computer and read the edits from that file on the other computer. Of course this only works if the file is a proprietary raw file, otherwise the edits are written to the file header instead of a separate XMP file.

    Develop module copying a single image edit

    Why don’t you want to export it as catalog? There are other ways, but export as catalog and then import from this catalog is designed for situations like this.

    Develop module Disappearing Develop Presets 'Favourites'

    Maybe it was indeed only rename. I decided to never rename or update in the favorites group anymore, so it was a long time ago I last noticed this bug.

    Develop module Disappearing Develop Presets 'Favourites'

    I have seen this happening if you rename or update a preset, and do that in the Favorites list. Seems like a bug to me, but always rename or update presets in their original group.

    Configure "Edit in" with Lightroom Cloud

    I don’t think you can add Lightroom Classic. Lightroom Classic is not an image editor, but essentially a database application. If you want to print from Lightroom Classic and not sync its catalog, then export the image from Lightroom and import that into Lightroom Classic.

    Issue with date/time edits

    I’d call this an interface design flaw. It would have been a bug if this changed the way that the time was corrected in all images.

    The Goodies plugin does indeed.

    27 inch Monitor resolution 2K or 4K

    And that is wrong, and proves that Adobe does not use the native resolution of the monitor to display the image, but the scaled resolution. The monitor setup should be irrelevant (and so it should not affect the preview size), because that setup obviously does not change the native resolution of...

    Cloud vs local drive features

    I think (smart or dumb) albums are also cloud only.

    27 inch Monitor resolution 2K or 4K

    Good point, so it is possible using only Apple’s software after all. I missed that option, and because I use SwitchRes X for my monitors, I never looked for it either.

    27 inch Monitor resolution 2K or 4K

    No, it should, but it does not. That is why the ‘Auto(xxxx)’ preview size changes when you change the display resolution, which obviously does not change the hardware resolution of your monitor. If Adobe used the native resolution, then ‘Auto(xxxx)’ would always be the same (3840 in case of a 4K...

    27 inch Monitor resolution 2K or 4K

    OK, I quickly checked. Also if you display the resolutions as list, the maximum resolution you can use on a 16” MacBook Pro is still 2056 x 1329 pixels. Using this computer at the native resolution is not possible without a special utility that overrides that. Now of course a 16” screen with a...

    27 inch Monitor resolution 2K or 4K

    Because the native resolution of a 4K monitor gives you tiny menus and interface items, especially if the physical size of the monitor is relatively small, such as 27”. You’d need to sit extremely close to the monitor, or use binoculars rather than reading glasses. That is why the default MacOS...

    27 inch Monitor resolution 2K or 4K

    In case you wonder why this is: if you set the display resolution to 2560 pixels, and MacOS would not use a little trick, then all apps would render their interface items at this 2560 pixels resolution, because the apps would think that is the resolution of your monitor. The hardware resolution...
