    Unresponsiveness of LR 9.2.1

    Somehow (not quite sure how) I found the pesky folder, have renamed it, opened Lightroom and magically a new plist folder was created. I will now see if Lightroom does not grey out my images as before. Thanks to all for your patience and help.

    In the attached screen shot I display the Adobe preferences in the folder. I don't see any Lightroom ones other than adobe.Adobe-Lightroom-Helper.plist Is that the one I should rename and then open Lightroom?

    Unresponsiveness of LR 9.2.1

    Gentlemen, Thank you for your efforts. It's obvious I'm a neophyte in matters software. I do not understand the bowels of LR. I did manage to find the Preferences folder under Library (screenshot attached )and discovered I have dozens, maybe hundreds, of preferences. Which do I rename? Then...

    Unresponsiveness of LR 9.2.1

    I went to the backup because I needed to get some images out. You are correct that it did not fix the issue. Today, most (probably all) my images are greyed out. As i said earlier, I could not find the User Library path you told me to follow. I sent a screen shot of my dead end. Where did I err?

    I restored LR from a recent backup, trashed the catalog that was giving me problems and the backup seems to be working. I just hope that continues. Thanks for your help!

    I can not find the path to rename the preferences file. Could you please elaborate? What would I rename the file when I find it? I believe I do have earlier backups I could resort to

    I upgraded to Catalina shortly after it was released. The Option key worked, I opened a new catalog and successfully imported 4 images. Now how do I return to my original catalog where all my images/edits reside? Thanks again for your help!

    I have 496.8 GB available out of 1.12. My RAM is 32 GB. Have no idea what a Swapfile is. How do I open an empty catalog? LR doesn't open. Should I try opening a backup?

    Unresponsiveness of LR 9.2.1

    Have been having issues with LR 9.2.1 for a few weeks now. If left open and not saved entire folders are greyed out and upon clicking on a greyed image, the screen says it's loading. It doesn't. I've had to close LR and reopen and then all is well. Today, all is not well: LR does not open at all...

    Import problem: destination folder not writable

    Thank you for your reply. I went away for two days, returned, tried downloading again and bingo! Success! Have no idea how or why as I did nothing other than re-install LR. I have adequate space in both hard drives and did not fiddle with any permissions (I don't even know how to). So, all is...

    Missing sync icon

    Problem resolved with a trusted old stand-by: I closed LR then re-opened it. All the little sync icons magically re-appeared. Thank you for your patience.

    Missing sync icon

    The problem is that the faint square box before the collection name is not there. Neither before the new collection I wish to sync nor any of the other collections that have been synced.
