    Catalogs Move images to new external drive

    I have 4Tb of images on an external Lacie 5Tb Rugged Drive with drive name RAID. That's its name although it is not a Raid drive as such. It was originally copied from a Raid setup. I want to move all the images to a new external drive which is an 8Tb Samsung 870QVO SSD. I will be cloning...

    Missing photos

    I am having continual problem with missing photos and when clicking on 'locate' the screen goes to my external drive where the photos are stored and it shows the drive name with a red minus sign. See screenshot below. I assume this means the drive is not connecting to Lightroom. If so, how do...

    V13.0.1

    My Lightroom caught me out and updated automatically. It is now frustratingly slow with lots of spinning beach ball and has really messes with my work flow. For instance I click R on a photo to crop and there is either a long period of blank screen or the spinning beach ball for the same...

    Links broken to catalog

    All the folders in my catalog storage drive have '?' marks and, all files have the 'file missing' message and the drive when I go looking for lost files has a re 'Minus' flag. But the drive is 'live' and I am able to connect some of the images. How do I connect the drive and all its folders...

    Extending Transform tool

    I am a church photographer and have to provide A4 landscape images for a calendar I have been shooting for 32 years. Life was simple when I could shoot with my Canon 1DS3 and a 17mm or 24mm shift/tilt lens. But that was a heavy and cumbersome setup and I now use a Fuji XT5 with an 8mm (12mm 35...

    Command D to deselect selected photos in grid

    I have always deselected photos using Command D. When I do this now the photos are not deleted and I get a 'PING'. Has this been changed or do I have a fault in my LR?

    164,000 missing files

    I run a MacBook Pro M2 Max with 1Tb flash drive and have my photo data storage on a Lacie 'Rugged' 5Tb disk drive connected by USB C, which currently has 3.5Tb of data. This drive is named 'Raid' but it is not a Raid drive. I will not complicate matters by explaining why this is the case...

    Bulk reconnection of files marked "!"

    I have been in a real pickle with my Lightroom set up. It started with the inability of my i27Mac to handle Monterey and therefore the latest versions of Classic. Lightroom had run brilliantly on the i27 using a 2 disk 8Tb Raid setup. I wanted but could not purchase an M1 MacBook with 8Tb...

    Import Recognising files

    I have been using my Lumix LX100 trouble free for years with Lightroom, shooting Raw and jpg. Yesterday I shot a number of images in an art gallery, Raw and jpg, and when I put the card in my M1 MacBook only one of the images was present, in both formats. This gave me a shock as I immediately...

    External small Seagate 4Tb drive is securely and directly connected (no hub) via USB C port. Whilst working in LR the illegal ejection message appears top right of screen and LR crashes. This has now happened half a dozen times over the last couple of days but prior to this has not happened...

    M1 chip MacBook Pro and Fuji Imports

    My 2011 i27 Mac finally showed its age and will no longer support the later OSs to run latest versions of Lrc. Sad, as I loved the big screen for editing. I have just replaced it with a very expensive 16" MacBook M1 Pro and am coming to grips with this with my LrC and Ps. I have made sure...

    Painting out a layer

    I am trying to paint out a section of the top layer of an over exposed stained glass window to reveal the properly exposed 2nd layer window. Using the black brush, what I get is shown in the attached image, the white brush removes the work of the black brush which is what I would expect. This...

    SmugMug Plugin for LRC Ver. 11.0.1

    I have been unable to get the SmugMug plugin to work on my MacBook Pro macOS Monterey Ver.12.0.1. This is causing me considerable grief as I need the SmugMug for business purposes and have a deadline approaching. A SmugMug 'Hero has been trying to help me but to no avail. I note the files in...

    Recover Catalogue from Time Machine backup

    I have Time machine running on my i27Mac. A couple of evenings ago I shut down Lightroom but did not back it up, as the last was only a day or so back. I then left the computer to have its well earned sleep. Next morning when LR opened it opened an old catalogue. I then set about trying to...

    Graduated Filter and Adjustment Brush not working with LR 9.3

    LR 9.3 automatically installed over night, something I must stop happening given my current problem! When I use the graduated filter or the adjustment brush I get the pink tell tale of where I have painted but the sliders do not work and no adjustments are made. Both are critical areas and I...

    Selected images not importing.

    For many years I believed LR to be 'bulletproof'. I used it constantly and never had a glitch. But over the past year or so, since having been forced on to the subscription path I have come disenchanted, with too many things going wrong. Today was an infuriating day with me fighting the...

    I am on the road with LR CC on my MacBook Pro running Mojave and the import function has dropped its bundle. When selecting import the Library side bars appear in place of the normal import bars.

    Print from Previews

    I inadvertently deleted gallery image files from a laptop believing that I had transferred the files to my desktop. I had not! Is it possible to print small prints from the previews? If so, how please? Damage is done and this is a big lesson!
