    Lightroom is behaving badly

    Boy, LR its just behaving badly right now. I imported images today, and had the "eject disk after import" checkbox checked. After the import, I look at Finder, and the disk is still there.

    Lightroom 6.14 - Synchronize Folder Aborting "Lightroom has stopped working"

    I am getting this error now very consistently on my established folders and also when I try to import new 'camera roll' photos. I have optimized my library a few times thinking this might 'fix' whatever database or metadata issue it is stumbling upon? Very troubling. I have about 90,000...

    Book Module with third party Printers?

    Greetings. I am a long time photographer, but new to book printing. I spent some time learning the basics of the layout options, and they seem great. My problem is that this “module” seems to really only work well if you chose to print with a single printer (Blurb). I Have nothing against...

    Lightroom Collection in Lightroom Classic

    Hello, I have been using cloud-based Lightroom. I am now thinking that I prefer LIghtroom Classic and find it more useful for my needs. When I open Lightroom Classic, all of the photos that I have already uploaded in desktop-based Lightroom appear as a Collection Set headed "From LIghtroom."...

    Printing contact sheets that include the IPTC data "Person Shown", "Event" and "Additional Info"

    I used Lightroom to add Metadata info to some old family photos. So the info I added to the metadata was mostly in the IPTC area. It included the file name, people shown in the photo, additional info, the event (if there was one) and the locations. I found a You Tube video that was excellent in...

    Mobile Lightroom Presets from DNG's + WB value?

    Hello, I'm struggling a little bit here. I am making mobile Lightroom Presets with WB values INCLUDED in the preset, but when I save this to DNG it and apply it to a raw file, the white balance value is not the same as what I have saved, it differs on each image. I imagine it's something to do...

    LR Prints Images Larger than specified in the cell size box

    I am using the latest version of LR. When I print an image, it prints larger than what I specified in the cell size dimensions section of the print module. A 4x6 prints 4 1/4 by 6 3/8. Not much larger, but I want it to be 4x6. I also regularly print two images on larger paper and trim...
