    LrC Collections Not Synching with Cloud

    Frequently my LrC Collections will stop synching with Cloud. The little double headed arrows next to the list of the Collections Folders will mysteriously disappear and nothing short of rebooting Lightroom can fix the problem. When this happens, I try to Pause Synching and Resume Synching; the...

    Mac OS 12 or Mac OS 13 on a 2017 iMac?

    I have a 2017 Retina 5K iMac running OS 12.7.2 with 40GB of RAM and a Radeon Pro 575 4 GB video card. I've updated Lightroom Classic to 13.1 and it seems to run well, albeit slowly at times. I recognize that my GPU is not up to the task, but a new computer is not in my immediate future, so I...

    Best Order in Which to Apply Image Enhancements

    New technology keeps coming quickly to Lightroom Classic; so much so that I don't know the best order in which to apply the many new features. I'm working on a high ISO high megapixel RAW Canon R5 image of a bird separated from its background by a reasonable distance. So I want to use Enhanced...

    Autostacked HDRs put DNG on Bottom of Stack

    I just got back from a trip where I took a large number of three image exposure bracketed HDRs. I used autostacking to gather the three images into stacks, then did a batch HDR of all the stacks. I wind up with a number of four image stacks. Inevitably the HDR is at the bottom of the stack, so...

    How to Get Photos from Lightroom Mobile (Android) to Lightroom Classic

    I don't use my cell phone to take photos too often, but am trying to learn how. I just took 40-50 photos on my Pixel 6a Android phone using the Lightroom Mobile camera function. I can see (and if I chose to do so, edit) the images on the phone, but can't figure out how to move the images from...

    Lightroom Classic Very Slow Responding

    I have an old but reasonably powerful iMac. (All its specs are listed below.) I'm running LrC 11.4.1. My catalog has about 290,000 images and the catalog and associated files are on an external 2TB Sandisk SSD. About 600GB of image files are also on this drive. When I am doing editing of...

    Auto Stacking not working as expected

    I have about 5000 images in a folder. I want to auto stack a selection of about 110 of these images so I can do a batch HDR converstion. I go into Grid view of the Library module and select those 110 images. Then I go into Photo > Stacking > Auto-Stack by Capture Time. When the window opens, I...

    Lightroom becomes unresponsive when using Import Dialog

    A few days ago I posted a request for assistance but haven’t gotten any responses. In the interim I have done some more troubleshooting, so I’d like to rephrase/clarify my issue. Six weeks ago I moved my Lightroom Classic (11.2/11.3) catalog from my iMac internal SSD to an external Sandisk...

    Import Dialog on Mac Hangs. Spinning pinwheel goes on forever.

    I'm running Lightroom Classic 11.3 on a 2017 Retina 27" iMac (see specs below). Recently I started getting hangs when I try to import images using the Import dialog. I click on Import > Source > EOS_Digital. Thumbnails open up, but then when I try to drag the slider down to move though the...

    Can't Delete Previews

    My 2017 27inch Retina iMac has only a 500GB SSD and about 200GB of it is taken up with Lightroom Previews. I decided to delete the 1:1 previews, but Lightroom won't let me. I tried Lightroom>Library>Previews>Discard 1:1 Previews and then I clicked on Discard All. The status bar showed Discard...

    Can Kernel Panic be Caused by Lightroom?

    I have recently gotten a couple of system crashes with my iMac (specs below). Previously I noted (and reported here) some high CPU overloads when LrC 11.1 was downloading and building profiles. When looking at the error log for the crash it appears I have been experiencing a Kernel Panic. The...

    CPU Overload When Downloading and Building Previews

    I apologize if this has been asked before, but I tried several searches and didn't get any results. Perhaps I didn't search for the right things. Nevertheless here is my question: I have recently bought a Canon R5 with 45 megapixel files. When I am downloading images to Lightroom and building...

    Deleting a Duplicate Catalog?

    Some time ago I created a catalog that is different from my main LrC catalog. I think I probably created this (mostly) duplicate catalog when I was traveling, but so much time has passed that I can't remember why or wherefore. So now I have my main catalog and this other catalog on my desktop...

    Catalog: Make Public: "adobe.ly can't provide a secure connection"

    I want to share a collection from LrC. I clicked on the "Make Public" button in the Library Module and a URL was created. But when I click on the URL in LrC, a window opens in Chrome which says: This site can’t provide a secure connection adobe.ly sent an invalid response...

    Canon R5 Camera Profiles Workaround?

    I just upgraded to a Canon R5 and returned from a photo trip where I've taken a huge number of landscape and wildlife photos. I used LrC to cull the images and just began editing them. I am somewhat surprised to find that there are no Canon-specific color profiles, just the Adobe color profiles...

    Best Option to Import Images for quickest review and culling

    I’m returning home from an extended photo vacation with some 11000 rather large images and face the daunting task of sorting through them and culling the bad images — and there will be a lot of bad images because many of the images are of birds in flight. When I return from a trip with far...

    Importing Batch Scanned Photos into Lightroom

    I have started scanning many old photos in various sizes (3x3, 4x6, 3x5, etc.) on my flat bed scanner. If I put a number of photos on the scanner and scan them all at one time, I can use Photoshop to crop and straighten them. (I use File>Automate>Crop and Straighten.) If I have, say, six...

    Renaming a Catalog

    I want to move my Lightroom Classic catalog to an external SSD to free up space on my internal 512GB SSD. When I move it, I also want to rename it so it is not so cumbersome. (It is currently Lightroom Catalog-2-2-2). When I go into my Finder I see seven subfolders all with Lightroom...

    Does it Make Sense to Move Lightroom Catalog to an External SSD? And How Big an SSD?

    I am running Lightroom Classic on my 2017 5K Retina 27 inch iMac. I have almost 300,000 images in one catalog and my Lightroom Catalog Previews.lrdata file is typically 150-200 GB. Unfortunately my computer's internal SSD is only 512GB, so I find that Lightroom often runs slowly. I have tried...

    Import Causes Lightroom To Freeze

    I am using Lightroom Classic 9.2 on a 2017 27 inch Retina iMac with OS 10.14. For several months (and several versions of Lightroom), I have had an intermittent problem when I insert a memory card in my card reader to Import images into Lightroom. Lightroom is open and most often in the...

    Optimal Camera Raw Cache Size?

    I'm running Lightroom Classic 9.1 on a 2017 27 inch iMac with a 500 GB SSD. I am running short of internal storage space. I found that I have a lot of storage devoted to Adobe Camera RAW Caches: user>Library>Caches>Adobe Camera Raw 2 = 60 GB user>Library>Caches>Adobe Camera Raw = 30 GB I...

    Red Screen In Develop Module

    I imported a series of Raw Canon images with Embedded and Sidecar Previews. I also imported them using "Apply During Import" develop settings that I created before my latest update of Lightroom CC. When I go to the Develop module and start advancing from one image to the next using the arrow...

    Scary Permanently Delete Message?

    I am trying to free up space on my iPad. I have quite a number of images on the iPad which were added through the Camera Roll, were subsequently synched to my home computer, and are stored on my hard drives at home. I no longer need or want these images on my iPad, or for the matter, in the...

    Can I Make Test Prints in Lightroom Classic CC?

    I am using Lightroom Classic CC 7.4. I want to make a series of 13x19 prints, but don’t want to have to use a full sheet of paper and inks to make test prints. I have a box of the same paper in letter size to use for this. How can I make a test print that is a portion of the larger 13x19 image...
