Color label setting problems in Develop module

Today is the first day with Lightroom 3, where I have over 200 photos from an event, that I am walking through each photo. I am in the develop module and I am setting the color label to red or blue. What seems to be constantly (not every time) happening is when I click the color for the label, LR will move to the next photo, but not apply the color label.
As I write this I'm trying it out to notice a pattern. What I see is photo 1, I click on the red label and the photo is labeled red and LR moves to photo 2. I click on the red label and LR does not set any color label and moves to photo 3.
Another thing that happened is I was then at photo 3 and clicked on the blue label. LR did not set the blue label but jumped to photo 4 and put the blue label on that photo.
This is very annoying.
Where might I report this bug to Adobe?

Same bug as with ratings. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/679696?tstart=0
Flagging via the toolbar, also shows this problem.
As noted above, use keyboard shortcuts.

Problem with develop module

I have LR 5.4 running on a mac OS 10.7.5. I am having problems with the software locking up in the Develop module. Sometimes a new image won't open and the preview screen stays black. I go back to the Library module and try to reneter the Develop module and get an error message saying there was an error trying to open the module. The entire LR screen is gray. I have to quit LR and restart the software to continue. I downloaded my software from Abobe and I was wondering if I can download a new version again and use my same serial number to reinstall the software.

Hi Rodney,
No custom print templates and this is a relatively new problem. It just
started about a week ago. I have been using the software steady for months
now. It did it once or twice last week but this weekend and today it has done
it about six times so it seems the problem is getting worse. That¹s why I
think the software may have been corrupted. I didn¹t keep a copy of the
software I downloaded so I can¹t reinstall. That¹s why I was wondering if I
could download it again and use the same serial number as before. I have only
loaded the latest version on my desktop. I also have LR 4 still installed on
my laptop and desktop. I have a big project to complete and this is really
slowing me down.

Do you have any custom print templates? That might be the case, it was an
issue at one time. Delete them and try using one of the default presets.
Crash?

Only one color label set per photo???

I had thought I could make good use of color label sets to visually organize page-layout/photo-groupings from collections, like those three red ones will go to page 3 and those 2 blue ones on page 4.
AND then I though I could just switch to a Printing label set to take my photos through a "fix then print" "ready to print" "printed" set of cues.
BUT seems like if I switch to different label set, then all markings of previous set get hidden and if I relabel a photo that used to be yellow in the previous set red then it overwrites the other set as well?
The idea of sets then doesn't make much sense then because it's so easy to overwrite information applied from a different set.
any thoughts? looks like I can only use the colors for one thing and so it now seems a waste to dedicate it's use just to indicate that pics still need to be sent out for printing. Perhaps I'll have to setup keywords for that instead - but they aren't so visual.

Collections, Metadata like keywords, are for your long term Ids. Color Labels, Picks and Ratings are for shorter term operations, as I see it.

Save Color Label Set with Collection

I'd like to be able to save a Color Label Set with a Collection. I'm getting ready to process a bunch of images and I have two destinations for them: a web site slide show, and Flickr. I want to do a slideshow of a small subset of images, but I want to post to Flickr all photos with a rating of 3 or greater.
I'd like to be able to set up a specific color label set with a color for "slideshow". But, I probably wouldn't use it all the time. It would be great if that specific color label set could be saved with a Collection of all these photos I'm going to work on. That way when I come back in a year and see green photos I get the right text instead of whatever color label set I'm currently using.
Sure, I can manage this by using some naming convention for the color labels, but it just seems like a natural fit for something that should be able to be specific to a Collection.

Press J to toggle the grid view styel. Only two modes show the color label squares.
It could also be that you have turned of grid view extras. You can find the option to turn these on in the menu View - Grid View Style.
It could also be that you have changed the option to show the labels Library View Options.
(Press Command+J to access).
Look that one of the fields under Compact Cell Extras contains the option Label.

One picture in more Color label set?

It's possible to have more "label text" on one picture?
I have more "color label set" (category, portfolio, web....) but I can't join the same picture to more color label set.
How do you use label set?

No, you can only have one colour per picture.
Consider using Collections for "category, portfolio, web...."

Color shift between Library and Develop module

Hi,
I recently noticed a color shift between in the image when going from the library to the develop module. Yes, I know this is mentioned in the FAQ, but I did not find the solutions given there to be satisfactory.
Let me explain what happens: I have taken Photos with my Canon EOS 300D, in Jpeg mode with Color Space in the Camera set to AdobeRGB. The photos I am talking about were taken with Tungsten light with auto white balance and have a distinct orange color cast. I use Windows XP and view my Photos on a LCD Display calibrated with the Pantone Huey system. The Lightroom Library Module and Photoshop CS2 both display the original image almost identically (there are no changes applied inside Lightroom or Photoshop, I view the original image in both applications). Photoshop is set to use the Adobe RGB Color space as its working Color space, Softproofing is switched off. However, when I switch to the Develop Module, the colors (especially the orange hues) shift very noticably toward pink. I can only assume that the Colorspace conversion or maybe some implicit soft proof used differs between the modules. So, to restate the problem: If I switch back and forth between Library and Develop, without changing anything and in 1:1 view to avoid errors introduced by different zooming methods, the colors shift quite drastically back and forth.
I have to say that this is really quite annoying. The whole point for me to use the develop module is to use it to make adjustments to the colors, and for this to work properly I have to see the same colors in both modules and in Photoshop. There is no point in correcting a pink color cast away in Develop that is not even there in either the library module or Photoshop (and that would then have a stronger orange tint because I tried to counter the pink tint in develop).
So this leads me to the final question: Is it possible to tell Develop to use the exact same color settings as the Library Module? Or is there another way to compensate for the color shift?
I hope I was clear in what happens and what I tried to do. If it helps I can gladly provide a sample photograph that clearly illustrates the point.
Thank you in advance for your help,
Daniel

Thanks for your comments, Don and Fred. I hope that this issue will be worked on soon.
Fred, I have set the Preview Quality to High, but it doesn't seem to make any differences concerning the color shift. I have investigated this matter further by now and made the following observations:
*The color shift is a lot less noticable on my laptop (the laptop screen is also color profiled). On my laptop the change is more of a subtle shift in contrast than in color. This might be caused by the smaller color gammut of my laptop display though.
*I have uploaded a testimage so that others can check if this shift occurs at their workstations too - after all, it might be a misconfiguration of my color management software, though I doubt that (because Adobe already states that library and develop render different previews). I would be interested if the color shift I describe is noticable at other workstations too. The link to the testimage: http://www.danyx.com/colorshift.jpg (permission to use the image to test the color reproduction is of course granted hereby).
Thanks for your help, I hope Adobe will listen soon,
Daniel

Having problem with develop module

When I take a pic from library to develop module, I get the "loading" message but then it doesn't go off (and doesn't load); this is a new problem; hasn't happened before; I don't know if recent loading of 2.6 version caused a problem. Thanks for any insight.

Is there anyone that can help? This is frustrating to say the least. The edits are taking effect, but only showing on the filmstrip. If I go back to library the edits are there, and will then show in develop when I take it back again. This makes it just about impossible to apply anything like cloning, or minute edits, because I can't see them when they happen!!

Color Picker Not Working in Develop Module LR 6

All color pickers in the Book, Slideshow, Print and Web Modules work by clicking in the color picker and dragging to the image then releasing the mouse over the color wanted. However, I am not able to get this to work in the Develop Module.
How can I get the color picker to work in the Develop Module?

I tried UNchecking Use Graphics Processor, and the color picker worked normally.
In addition, it appears the turning the GPU off increased the speed of paint strokes!

Color label sets

Is there a way to create more color labels than just the ones that LR defaults to? Here's my use so you'll know what I'm trying to do. I use a different color for the "model" photo of a particular insect family. This allows me to search using this color and use the photos as my "easy cheat sheet" for making IDs. Since there are more than 5 insect families, I need more color options. Can I create them? Thanks for the help!

You are limited to five colors.
I would recommend using a keyword strategy instead.

Color labels problem, in french version

In english :
Hello
I was testing with the beta and lightroom beta 2 version 3. Satisfied, I bought french version 3 today. Unfortunately I have a small problem:
color labels have not been recognized during the transition to the french commercial version 3. The reason seems to be related to a translation problem. Example: color purple ("pourpre" in french) appears not with the same color, but with the text, instead of the icon, "purpule". Same for the other colors.
How to get my color labels?
Thank you.
In french :
Bonjour,
je testais lightroom avec la beta et beta 2 de la version 3. Satisfait, j'ai acheté la version 3 française ce jour. Malheureusement j'ai un petit problème :
les libellés de couleurs n'ont pas été reconnus lors du passage à la version 3 commerciale française. La raison semble être liée à un problème de traduction. Exemple : la couleur pourpre apparait non pas avec la couleur correspondante, mais avec le texte, en lieu et place de l'icône, "purpule". Même chose pour les autres couleurs.
Comment récupérer mes libellés de couleurs ?
Merci.

Snoopy,
I think your assumption is correct, your problem is due to the different wordings in the labels (I presume you were running LR3 Beta2 in English).
LR did wirte the word "Purple" into the label column of your catalog, when you marked an image as purple. Now, with the french wording, LR interprets the word "Pourpre" in the label column as purple, and nothing else. You can see these associations in the Library Module, Metadata menu / Color label set / Edit.
To solve your problem, I would do the following for each of the color labels:
Activate the Metadata Filter, with the column "label" showing
filter on a specific label term (e.g. "Purple")
Select all filtered photos
Mark them as "Pourpre"
This will reassign the current (French) terms to your photos.

Lightroom 6 difference in color in Library vs Develop module

Hello,
i have recently installed LR6 and converted existing LR5 catalog. I have an issue that in Library module, all pictures looks yellow (like wrong color balance) and in Develop module they look correct. When i export a picture into JPG file it also looks correct. But the color difference between Library and Develop modules is huge with Library shifted into yellow tones.
Does anybody know what to do?
Best regards,
Pavel

Lightroom color labels lost on transition from one pc to another

I started using a mac laptop in the field and always used windows pc at home. A portable hard drive holds the lightroom catalog. It's fat32 formatted so it can be used by both mac and windows.
A catalog made by the mac lightroom opens fine in windows. However, all the color labels are lost. The flags and stars are retained.
If a color label is changed on a photo by the windows version of lightroom, then when that catalog is opened on the mac, that photo has no color label. (even though the mac originally gave it a color label)
And all the original color labels that were made by the mac magically return as they were assigned.
To trouble shoot this, I installed the Lightroom 3.6 trial on 2 other pcs - one runs windows 7 32 bit and the other windows 7 64 bit. These installs see the mac created catalog properly.
All the color labels are there and changing one on a windows box is properly reflected on the mac when that catalog is opened.
This is so annoying.
My main pc must have an allergy to my mac.
I removed and reinstalled lightroom on my pc-same problem.
Now i have to figure out what is interfering with my main pc lightroom install.
It cant be lightroom cause i removed it and reinstalled it. but it might be one of the plug ins i use. these magically reappearred even after i reinstalled lightroom after removing it.
Anyone have suggestions?

The color labels are preserved between different programs (for instance between Bridge and Lightroom) and I imagine between different LRs on two different computers only when the texts entered as description for the color labels in >Metadata >Color Label Set >Edit is absolutely identical on both computers down to upper / lower case, spaces, numbers, hyphens, etc. If one dexcription for - lets say the red label - deviates from the other by only a semicolon the label will not display properly.

Lightroom 5 and Bridge 6- Color Label and Keyword compatibility

I've added color labels and keywords to images in Lightroom 5 but I'm not seeing them in Bridge CC.
Lightroom Metadata > Color Label Set is set to Lightroom Default (Red-Yellow etc.
And Bridge Preferences > Labels is also set with "Red, Yellow etc" text.
In other words they are the same, But I'm not seeing the color labels or the keywords in Bridge.
Thanks,

The answer to this problem is that, in order for Bridge and Lightroom to share labels etc. Lightroom has to write its metadata into xmp sidecar files.
To do this go to: Lightroom > Catalog Settings > Metadata Tab and check : Automatically write changes into XMP.

Lightroom CC isn't including color labels when images are imported

I've tried this several times, but it doesn't work. Lightroom CC will import metadata and even star ratings, but it won't import the color label data assigned to the images from within Bridge. How can I get that information to be imported?
In other words, working in Bridge CC I assigned star ratings and color labels to a folder full of JPG files. When I import those files into Lightroom CC, the images, metadata and the star ratings are imported, but no color label data was imported. None of the images have color labels when viewed in LR. They still retain the color labels when I view the files in Bridge CC, but they don't appear in LR.

I just struggled with this for an hour. Any changes made to labels inside Lightroom 5 didn't show up in Bridge CC after reading metadata from file, and imports into LR5 did not properly show Bridge CC's label colors. Instead, only a tiny white rectangle at the bottom right of each labeled thumbnail showed in LR5.
Finally figured it out. In the Lightroom 5 file menu up top, go to:
Metadata --> Color Label Set --> Bridge Default (select this option)
'Lightroom Default' was previously selected in mine, as I suspect all Lightroom 5 installs are initially.
Make sure that the names beside each color are identical in both Bridge & LR, or you will still have syncing problems.
This should fix your problem!

Lr5 lost/did not import my color labels

My Lr4 calalog has all my color labels but when upgrading that calalog to Lr5 - all color labels on images are stripped and I see the label default (Red - Delete, etc)
I went into the Roaming - Adobe - Lightroom folder and found "Label Sets" but I fear what is in there is the Lr5 stuff
Question: How can I get all my Lr5 catalog images to have the same color labels as my Lr4 catalog?
Thank-you

If your label sets were stored properly in Lightroom 4 they are still in the correct folder in Lightroom 5.
Go to Metadata>Color Label Set> and make certain the correct Label Set is ticked. If it isn't tick it. If it isn't there you will have to open your Lightroom 4 and find out where that Label Set is stored and move it to the proper place.
How Labels work:
Lightroom looks at the metadata of the Label field and matches the text against the five fields in the Color Label Set. If it matches one, it applies the color. If there is text and it doesn't match any, a White Label is applied. If it doesn't have text - no label is applied.
Give your problem description, you should be seeing a bunch of White labels instead of no label. Is that happening?
