LrM for Dummies?

[MMarz]

Operating System

1. macOS 27 Golden Gate
2. iOS
3. iPadOS

Historically all my editing gets done on my iMac in LrC.
But I have a MacBook Air, an iPad Air, iPad Mini and iPhone 17.

If like to integrate one out more of these devices into my work flow.

I could use done help with the organization and sync aspects of LrM. Preferred resources?

I wonder if this helps. It centres on the apps rather than the devices, so LrM is your iPads and iPhone, and LrD is your Mac Air.

John, your diagram is missing an import arrow from the camera to the cloud.

And other possible inputs and outputs too, Jim, so I mean to update it with printers and Firefly. It was as much a commentary as an attempt to document - think of the famous New Yorker posters.

Got it. Thanks. I am registered since 2007

Everything helps! Thank you.

The images I see in Imports within LrM>Lightroom Albums on my phone are images I added from some source to that specific device, correct? These are local to that device only and don't sync across any other mobile devices running LrM, or back to LrC.

Correct?

I think out all free ebooks, probably try this one starters.

It's been a while since we last updated the free eBooks (it's on a list!!!), but they should still give you the basic idea. I'd suggest starting with two:
https://www.lightroomqueen.com/members/free-membership/cc-free-ebook/ and the travel workflow that @Swingman suggested.

Of course, our main Edit on the Go book is the most up to date.

Thank you. My last copy of this is from 2021.
