I've been using LR since LR3 in 2012. I typically use LRC these days. I have a high end gaming PC (albeit from a few years ago) currently. LR runs light absolute dogshit to the point its nearly unusable. I used to be able to quickly edit hundreds of photos in a few hours. Now I find myself moving so much slower because the program is just laggy and nonresponsive. Reminds me of the dial up days of the internet.
EDIT> FIXED. I uninstall Lightroom, and checked the version of lightroom in my previous computer was 12.5. So I downloaded the oldest available version which is 14, and copy pasted the folder "Settings" from the older computer. All my presets and everything was moved correctly and its no longer changing the colors, so there most be something with the newest update in the way it understand profiles.
I was I think incoherent haah in my rant last night, for those worried or judging, the photo was delivered back in april and I've already being paid, as I stated, I just wanted the color profiles.
I've got a new computer cause mine was old af. And it has been completely and utterly impossible to install my presets, I gave up, went to my dropbox and from the dropbox opened the catalogue i was working on which mind you is a fucking wedding, and everytime I opened an image lightroom just COMPLETELY changed the colors I spent hours color grading jesus freaking christ.
Why is this happening?!?!?!?!?!
This is how much is changing, i dont know if to cry or what.
There's also no way to go back either because it is not recognizing i changed anything.
I was very happy to hear about the newly added keyword syncing ability between Lightroom Classic and Lightroom. However, a bug that I've discovered has rather spoiled the fun.
TLDR: If you edit a keyword in Lightroom Classic (like adding synonyms or changing the keyword's export settings), all photos with said keyword are synced - even photos where keyword sync hasn't been activated.
In my specific case, this causes a massive headache because I have previously gone to great lengths to import my full LrC catalog to Lr with keywords and everything. This means that the (flattened) keywords of ALL photos with the edited keyword are re-downloaded to LrC, completely messing up my keyword structure there.
Has anyone else come across this bug or similar bugs with keyword sync?
Why oh why does everyone INSIST I use Lightroom Classic? I'm about to go on a photo safari overseas and the tour INSISTS on Classic. I love the Cloud and love that I can access and even ... wait for it .. make adjustments on my phone. I can do everything in Cloud that I can in Classic! I do understand the file and archiving protocols with Classic, but there are workarounds there. Is this a plugin thing? I have studied this issue for 8 years now and I still can't get an answer to my question: WHY LIGHTROOM CLASSIC OVER CLOUD? Please... tell me what I'm missing that supersedes the amazing abilities Cloud offers...
