Hi everyone,
I have attempted to migrate from Lightroom Classic to the cloud based Lightroom. I prepared the catalogue in line with recommendations here, started the migration which initially went okay, and then at about 35% VERY slowly (about 2-3% per 24hr), at about 50% the migration failed with an error message saying how sorry Adobe were!! The photos appear to have come across (about 17,000) , but none of my albums and the date order is a bit messed up (I assume the metadata may be corrupted).
Question: How best to recover from this?
1. Delete the photos in the cloud and start again from the backup copy of my catalogue? or
2. Accept that the migration process for 17,000 photos is going to be troublesome and recreate all my albums in the cloud and if at all possible tidy up the metadata?
Suggestions and help very much appreciated...
Many thanks
Ian
