I've had a love/hate relationship with Lightroom for years. I was just getting the hang of organizing my photos into neat year/month/day/subject folders. Lightroom mobile was understandable. I have lots of collections containing over 4000 pics. (I know that is excessive, I had hopes of organizing all my vacation pics!)
I have 500 missing photos.
Now I am totally baffled about how to proceed. It seems all my synced collections have changed to a huge number of folders. My naming method has disappeared for these images. I try to organize my pics and everytime I move something it turns into a missing folder.
I would like to keep using Lightroom Classic CC. Am I correct that "Lightroom mobile" is really Lightroom CC? I don't need all those photos to be synced. If I delete those folders are my pics safe in Lightroom Classic.
I need SIMPLE. I take 1 or 2 pics of all kinds of things. Parts, directions, etc. As well I take pics of events and trips.
On top of this - I recently learned that Dropbox has been collecting ALL my pics. Even copies of those I download. Thousands of pics going back to 2012. That is not your fault. But I am losing my mind with all this!
