Truth be told, I do imagine that the iPad will eventually replace the laptop as the only mobile option. It may be close now, but it my experience not all apps are ready for exclusive use on an iPad. Heck, Lightroom is a good example of this today. It’s good, but for some people it’s not a...
Not exactly. With Option 1, the images would be on the desktop. With Option 2, they would be on the external SSD which means they are available wherever the SSD is.
I actually take my laptop everywhere for reasons beyond Lightroom, so I'll have it and might as well use it. I even use my laptop at home while sitting in the living room, so my iPad got downgraded to a new iPad mini. I only use the iPad for light consumption and for playing card games. So, I...
Years ago when I used Lightroom I only had one computer to worry about. I never bothered with it on a laptop. Now that I'm back into dealing with photos, I started out by using Lightroom. It won't work for everything I want to do, so I'm starting over with Lightroom Classic, but the one thing...
As I see it, there are two basic options if I want to use Lightroom Classic with both a desktop and a laptop:
I would have a master catalog on the desktop where all of my images reside, and a secondary (or "temporary") catalog on the laptop for use when I am away from the desktop. If I import...
So far, hiding people seems to be working. However, there's a new issue: how do I unhide a person that has less than five photos and therefore doesn't appear in the People view?
So deleting the catalog via the web interface seems to have helped, at least a bit. The recognition is better, but I still have the issue of people coming back after I have removed them from photos. I am now trying to hide them to see if they at least stay gone using that method.
I'm not seeing an option in the web version of Lightroom to delete anything but photos, including permanently deleting them from the trash. Where should I be looking for an online option to also delete the cloud catalog?
Lightroom has now found people in the 53 images I imported. However, I still can't permanently remove people that have been found that I don't want. I remove them from the photos and in a few minutes they come back.
Very odd, and annoying enough that I may just stop experimenting with Lightroom...
You can permanently delete the images from within the Lightroom desktop app. I've done that again, actually. I just removed all the images I had in Lightroom, permanently deleted them, and turned off People Detection. I then added 53 photos that were previously in Lightroom and waited for them...
Definitely possible, although after several hours I would have expected it to be done given there weren't that many photos to scan. But as I said, now I seem to be having the opposite problem in that I can't get rid of people that I don't want. Take for example "guy in red baseball cap and...
What you suggest certainly makes sense. That said, late last night Lightroom started recognizing that there are people in photos, and even tried to tag some. However, while the ones I had previously identified and then deleted were highlighted, they were not grouped. Nevertheless, I have been...
It's been several years since I have been around, but I am now thinking about reorganizing all of my photos. This go around I am experimenting with Lightroom (versus Lightroom Classic). So, I imported a few hundred photos and enabled People Detection, and as best as I can tell everything worked...
I have run into significant issues working with the existing database, and as a result, I am re-enabling the existing installation of Lightroom Forums until I can work through the issues. Sorry for the inconvenience.
I have been writing custom software for a couple of different organizations, and it is taking quite a bit of time. Every so often I have had enough of the staring at the lines of code that I hop in the internet and stop by to say hello.
