    Develop module Soft Proofing Not allowing edit adjustments

    What happens when you try to edit on the MacBook? Be specific.

    Import Files being deleted by Lightroom after import

    It sounds like you're asking LRC to Move the images instead of Copying them.

    Library module Quick key for sorting in Custom Order

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you want, but you can just move an image to where you want it, and the Sort field will automatically change to Custom Order. There's no need to change that field manually.

    Import Catalog image count showing "0" and keywords missing after import

    Do you have a backup of your catalogue? If you do, move your old one out of the catalogue folder in case you might need it, and unzip the backup into that folder and see if LRC will open it.

    Catalogs How do I move the location of my backups?

    When LRC pops up a request to back up your catalogue, there's a "Choose" button to set a new location for that and all subsequent backups. On the General tab of the Catalogue Settings, you can set when to back up your catalogue. You can set it to "Every time Lightroom Exits." You get to the...

    Library module Metadata editor - larger view

    I don't know if this will help, but you can make the Caption field larger:

    Catalogs Greyed out folders and subfolders

    You could probably have saved yourself some grief. You can sort your images in all kinds of orders, and yours got set to something else:

    Catalogs Greyed out folders and subfolders

    If you didn't delete the Catalogname Helper.lrdata file when you replaced the catalog with the backup, delete it now.

    Import Lightroom importing JPG files alongside RAWs

    I suppose you could have imported pairs of images before deselecting "treat jpegs next to raws as separate." That toggle only works when you import photos. Deselecting it doesn't magically make the jpegs disappear from your catalogue. If that's not the case and you truly don't have it selected...

    Library module Folder names can not include '@' when files are on an external drive?

    I don't know what sfax has to do with anything, but @ is perfectly valid in a folder name in Windows 10: The OP says it doesn't work with LRC on an external disk, but it does on the internal disk. How is that external disk formatted? Is it a NAS?

    Editing Watermarks

    You can do it. After you edit a watermark, click back on its name and you get the option to replace it: LRC uses this idiom in lots of places.

    Key word entry triggers hot keys

    Cletus, a hot key is pretty much the same as a shortcut key. There are plenty of single keys in LRC that do things: L, R, G, E, T all come to mind, and there are lots more. They don't need to be combinations. Lightroom Classic sometimes steals focus out of the keywording box, doing what the OP...

    Can't delete rejected photos from disk

    Could you clarify something? Do you get this dialogue box? Or does the photo just disappear from your catalogue when you type Backspace? If the latter, LRC is acting like the photo is in a collection. If so, there is something weird happening. Weird problems are often fixed by resetting LRC's...

    List of used keywords

    You could create a copy of your catalogue, open it, and purge unused keywords using the menu item under the Metadata menu. Then you could export your keyword list. Remember to delete the copy of your catalogue so you don't later get confused.

    MacBook M3 Trackpad Weirdness

    That's indeed weird. I'd try resetting the Preferences file. On a side note, does it work when you plug a mouse into your laptop?

    How to find images deleted from catalog but not from disk

    To add to what Cletus suggested, after you import the images, they will all be in the Previous Import special collection and you can select them all and delete them all at once.

    Data icons stay on my desktop after I close lightroom.,

    Please submit a screen shot (not a photograph of your screen). That will help us see what you're talking about.

    LrC functionality after switching plans from Photography (20GB) to Lightroom (1TB)

    Lee, It works. I ran that way for over a year. Everything is available except for the Map module, the Develop module, and synching to Lightroom. You will still get updates as they are released and will still be able to use the Quick Develop in the Library module. You can continue to import images.

    Extra Stationary Cursor

    I don't see that. Could you attach a screenshot (not a photograph of the screen) showing what you see?

    PS Tools

    It works fine for me. Are you sure that you're left-clicking and holding the button down?

    LR Classic / Win 11 Task Manager

    Could be, except that doesn't work, either. Once it disappears, it's gone for good.

    LR Classic / Win 11 Task Manager

    Calling PS does indeed remove LRC from Task Manager, but it doesn't come back, even when given focus. It's a bug somewhere.
