Lightroom Mobile Disk Usage

Have the new app on my ipad. Only imported one photo of 2.5MB but the disk usage says 46GB of 56GB, have checked cloud and only have the one photo in there too. Anyone any idea why this may be?

  • Lightroom Mobile Sync - Extremely High CPU Usage/Sync Process Causes LR To Lag

    Since my other thread doesn't seem to be getting any responses, I'm pasting what I've found here. Please keep in mind I am not a beginner with Lightroom and consider myself very familiar with Lightroom's features excluding the new mobile sync.
    1st message:
    I'm on Lr 5.5 and using the 30 day trial of Adobe CC to try syncing one collection of slight more than 1000 images. Despite already having generated the Smart Previews, I can see my CPU crunching through image after image (the rolling hills pattern in the task manager) while doing the sync. I was assuming, since I already created the Smart Previews, that the sync of this collection would begin immediately and be done by simply uploading all of the existing Smart Previews. The Smart Previews folder of the catalog is 871MB and has stayed the same despite the CPU obviously doing *something*. As it is now, the sync progress is incredibly slow, almost at a pace like it's actually exporting full-res JPGs from the RAW images (as a comparison only, I know this should not be what it's actually doing).
    Another side effect of this is that I'm basically unable to use my computer for other tasks due to the high CPU utilization.
    Win 7 x64 / Lightroom 5.5
    Intel i5 2500k OC'd 4.5GHz
    16GB RAM
    SSD for OS, separate SSD for working catalog and files
    2nd message:
    As a follow up, now Lightroom thinks all 1026 photos are synced (as shown in "All Sync Photographs" portion of the Catalog though all images after the 832nd image show the sync icon per image stuck at "Building Previews for Lightroom Mobile" and the status at the top left corner has been stuck at "Syncing 194 photos" for over 12 hours. Is there no option to force another sync via Lightroom Desktop and also force the iOS app to manually refresh (perhaps by pulling down on the collections view, like refreshing via the Mail app)?
    3rd message:
    One more update, I went into Preferences and deleted all mobile data, which automatically signed me out of Adobe CC and then I signed back in. Please keep in mind the Smart Previews were long generated before even starting the trial, and I also manually generated them again (it ran through quickly since it found they were already generated) many times. Now that I'm re-syncing my collection of 1026 images, I can clearly see Lightroom using the CPU to regenerate the Smart Previews which already exist. I have no idea why it's doing this except that it's making the process of uploading the Smart Previews extremely slow. I hope this time around it will at least sync all 1026 images to the cloud.
    4th message:
    All 1026 images synced just fine and I could run through my culling workflow on the iPad/iPhone perfectly. Now I'm on a new catalog (my current workflow unfortunately uses one catalog per event) and I see the same problem: Smart Previews already generated but when syncing, Lightroom seems to re-generate them again anyway (or take up a lot of CPU simply to upload the existing Smart Previews). Can anyone else chime in on what their CPU utilization is like during the sync process when Smart Previews are already created?
    New information:
    Now I'm editing a catalog of images that is synced to Lightroom Mobile and notice that my workflow has gotten even slower between photos (relative to what it was before, this is not a discussion about how fast/slow LR should perform). Obviously Lightroom is syncing the edited settings to the cloud, but I can see my CPU running intensively (all 4 cores) on every image I edit and the CPU utilization graph looks different than before I started using LR mobile sync. It still feels like every change isn't simply syncing an SQLite database change but re-generating a Smart Preview to go with it (I'm not saying this is definitely what's happening, but something is intensively using the CPU that wasn't prior to using LR Mobile).
    For example: I only update the tint +5 on an image. I see the CPU spike up to around 30-40%, then falls back down, then back up to 100%, then back down to another smaller spike while Lightroom says "Syncing 1 photo".  I've attached a screenshot of my CPU graph when doing this edit on just one image. During this entire time, if I try to move onto edit another image, the program is noticeably slower to respond than it was prior to using LR mobile, due to the fact that there appear to be much more CPU intensive tasks running to sync the previous edit. This is proven by un-syncing the collection and immediately the lag goes away.
    I'd be happy to test/try anything you have in mind, because it's my understanding that re-syncing photos that are edited that are already in the cloud should be simply updating the database file rather than require regenerating any Smart Previews or other image data. If indeed that's what it should be doing, then some other portion of LR is causing massive CPU usage. If this continues, I will probably not choose to proceed with a subscription despite the fact that i think LR mobile adds a lot of value and boosts my workflow significantly if it wasn't causing the program to lag so badly in the process.
    I know this message was incredibly long and probably tedious to read through so thanks in advance to anyone who gets through it

    Thanks for reporting. Just passed  along your info to some of our devs. One of the things that needs to be created (beside smart previews) during an initial sync are thumbnails + previews for the LrM app - Guido
    Hi Guido,
    Thanks for pointing this out. I realized the same thing when I tried syncing a collection for offline mode and found out the required space sounded more like Previews + Smart Previews rather than just the Smart Previews.
    greule wrote:
    Hi Jeff, are your images particularly large or do you make a lot of changes which you save to the original file as part of your workflow?
    The CPU usage is almost certainly from us uploading JPEG previews not the Smart Previews - particularly during develop edits as these force new JPEG previews to be sent from Lightroom desktop, but would not force new Smart Previews (unless the develop edits are modifying the original file making us think the Smart Preview is out of date) to be sent.
    Guido
    My images are full-resolution ~22mp Canon 5D Mark III RAW files so they're fairly large. Even if I only make one basic change such as exposure changes, I saw the issue. By "save to the original file" I'm assuming metadata changes such as timestamps, otherwise edits to the images aren't actually written to the original file. I'm only doing develop module edits so I shouldn't be touching the original file at all at this point in my workflow.
    I think it makes sense now that you mention that new JPEG previews need to be generated and sent to the cloud due to updated develop edits. My concern is that this seems to be done in real-time as opposed to how Lightroom Desktop works (which is to render a new Standard Preview or 1:1 Preview on demand, which means only one is being rendered at any given time while viewing it in Loupe View or possibly 2 in Compare View). If I edit, for example, 10 images quickly in a row, once the sync kicks in a few seconds later, editing the 11th image is severely hindered due to the previous 10 images' JPEG previews being rendered and sync'd to the cloud (I'm assuming the upload portion doesn't take much CPU, but the JPEG render will utilize CPU resources to the fullest if it can). Rendering Standard/1:1 Previews locally and being able to walk away while the process finishes works because it is at the start of my workflow, but having to deal with on-the-fly preview rendering while I'm editing greatly impacts my ability to edit. Perhaps there can be a way to limit max CPU utilization for background sync tasks?
    It may help to know that I'm running a dual-monitor setup, with Lightroom on a 27" 2560x1440 display maximized to fit the display (2nd display not running LR's 2nd monitor). Since I'm using a retina iPad, the optimal Standard Previews resolution should be the same at 2880 pixels.
    Thanks again for the help!

  • Lightroom Mobile sync fail

    Well, it sounded good, so I tried it, on just 6 images, those worked, so then I set a larger number, yes, a massive 26 images, yes, that is 26, not 26,000.
    It just sits there, and the six images that were visible on iOS are now gone, (I did move them to the new 26 photo collection, so that could be why)
    In iOS the new "Collection" name shows up  along with the number of photos that should be in it, but there are none after 12 hours. I've tried uninstalling and reinstall of LR mobile, no difference.
    On LR desktop the collection has has 26 photos in it, syncing is on, the almost invisible sync tag is showing alongside the collection.   The only thing it has managed to do is remove the previous testt folder, so I am now down to 0 photos on Lightroom mobile. Not impressive.
    So, questions:
    1. Is it possible to tell from Lightroom (desktop) the status of a sync. i.e have they uploaded and the problem is in the iOS version, or not even uploaded.
    2. Is it possible to use a web browser to see what has uploaded - i.e. check that the images are in the Adobe "cloud"
    3. how long should it take to sync 24 off 5184x3456 pixel jpegs?  (I have both my laptop and phone liked to a 60MB/s fibre broadband connection - being Virgin Media the upload is a bit pitiful at only 2MB/s - but still, surely it shouldn't take days? - the exact same images uploaded to Alamy in about 15 mins)
    4. within the setting fly-out on the LHS on LR Mobile. there are sliders for "Sync only over WiFi", Show touches" & "collect usage data". The first two are set to off, the last one to send data to Adobe is on. None of them can be changed. Same on iPad and iPhone.  Presumably they should be selectable or there wouldn't be an option - can anyone tell me how to enable this?
    P.S. I just found a sort of solution to Q.4., when re-installing you get to select those options, not phrased consistently with the options screen, but that seems to do it, but a bit mad you have to delete all your photos and data in order to change a setting, there must be another way.  There is a Setting within the iOS Settings, Lightroom, "Use Mobile Data" which you can slide to "off" position, but it makes seemingly no difference to the setting shown in Lightroom itself, which stays showing it will sync - are these supposed to be linked / synced or not?
    My iOS device (iPhone + iPad) see the new "Collection" name, but have no photos in then
    Perhaps LR mobile is all a bit embryonic and I should wit for it to mature a bit, but I thought just syncing a few images wouldn't be too challenging
    Thanks for any help.
    Stephen

    Thank you Guido,
    It seems all I needed to do was wait, and then wait a bit more, and then wait a little longer.  It took about 14 hours to sync the 26 images - no progress bar air any clue on what progress there was, it just went from zero when I looked after about 13 hours to all 26 images after 15 hours.
    So not exactly a reliable tool currently if you need to rely on the transfer.  the same images are in my dropbox account, i did a test duplicating them, and they took about 6 minutes to sync between iPad and mac on the same network - i.e. uploading to DropBox 'cloud' then downloading the iPad.
    As I said before, seems a little embryonic perhaps, I think I will probably use it as a 'slide viewer' until the sync becomes a little quicker.
    Thanks for your message, and thankfully didn't need the diagnostics this time.

  • How do I import RAW images to Lightroom Mobile

    I've recently joined the Creative Cloud with a view to finding a mobile and desktop solution to managing my 433Gb photo collection currently on local drives.  I also need to be able to go on holiday and import photos using the Camera Lightning Connection Cable for iPad to get RAW photos from my Lumix GF6.  I've tried the Apple iCloud Photo Library and it fills my iPad memory before I've a quarter of the photos imported to the cloud.
    When I try it with Lightroom Mobile, it can see the RAW photos (they show up on the little icon in Add from Camera Roll), but clicking on the icon only shows the JPEGs currently in the Camera Roll.  What can I do to import them (and get them in the Adobe Cloud when I have a mobile signal).  There is no desktop at this point, imagine I'm on holiday (wish I was!).
    Regards,
    Colin Begg

    That’s a great pity.  I’m looking for a Mobile Workflow for when I’m on holiday.  With all the changes in iOS 8, it still can’t keep a RAW file in one piece after import.  I’ve found Photogenie can edit the RAW but back home I’d be using Lightroom, since the iOS 8 / Yosemite iCloud Photo Library won’t import more than a quarter of what is in my Lightroom on disk.  I need a Cloud backup.
    Thanks for the swift reply

  • Ipad first workflow in lightroom mobile

    I like the editing options in lightroom mobile. Great job!
    My main usage of the ipad is preselecting and tagging images on tours or events and I am using Photosmith until now. This is not yet supported by lightroom mobile. Will creating smart previews from RAW and/orJPG files as well as editing metadata (rating, keywords, description...) be part of the next version(s)?

    Thank you so very much.  That is, unfortunately, the ONLY use that I have for the mobile app.  It will be useful **someday** but not today. Many, many thanks again.

  • List View in Lightroom Mobile

    I have hundreds of collections in Lightroom Mobile.  Scrolling through them with only three at time visible on my iPad takes forever.  A list view and/or small thumbnail view would greatly help navigation.

  • Firewire external mobil disk hard drive is no longer recognized

    After last system update, my firewire external mobil disk hard drive is no longer recognized. Any solutions?
    Why does MacOS go backwards... gets worse over time?

    Thought you could use this info about getting FireWire to work! I have had no trouble with any update Apple puts out (the Combo update is what I normally choose). Are you running 9.2 like your specs. say? You are in the Tiger forum, so I'll assume you haven't updated your Macs specs.
    First, you should always Repair Permissions in Disk Utility before and after any update; I would do that now. If you installed your update with FireWire plugged in, your Mac may not recognize it anymore.
    Try resetting your FireWire ports by disconnecting all FW devices, shut down your Mac and unplug it from AC power (wall socket) for 30 minutes. plug it back in and try FW.
    If that did'nt work, download the combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try. Yours may be the 10.4.5 Combo update. Others reading, download the Combo that applies to your system.
    If that still did'nt get it Zap the PRAM. While restarting Mac hold down the following key combo Command-Option-P-R. Keep holding those keys down till you hear the second start-up chime, then release.
    For those of you with Macs that are not PowerBooks or iBooks, a bad internal battery can cause FireWire to not be recognized, so make sure it's good!
    Good Luck!
    Cheers!

  • As an update, I installed an update 5.7on my Mac laptop, now the Lightroom 5.0 has become a "Lightroom Mobile" version.  How can change it back to the laptop version?

    As an update, I installed an update 5.7on my Mac laptop, now the Lightroom 5.0 has become a "Lightroom Mobile" version.  How can change it back to the laptop version 5.7?
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    LR on your laptop is still a desktop version.  It is just now able to upload to the cloud to replicate photos to either http://lightroom.adobe.com/ or an iPad that has LR Mobile installed.
    I think you probably just want to change the LR 5 identity plate back so it doesn’t mention LR Mobile all the time.  Hover over the identity-plate area, and click on the little triangle that appears, then choose Change Identity Plate.

    I Have an HP Dv6 pavillion 7011tx. after i upgraded this laptop to windows 8, i observed that the disk usage (in task manager) always shows 100% activity..had an Clean boot, tried all the disk checks and management things . rebooted th pc again with windows 8 but still the problem continues..
    i dont think there is any solution to this problem as i have seen many many more other posts similar to this problem

    Which has made my pc very very slow The insyde h20 bios sucks! 
    Bios utlilty doesnt has the option even to change it. Is there any solution to this problem?
    PC Configuration:

    CAN THIS CONFIGURATION ACHIEVE A 100% DISK USAGE EVEN IF NOTHING BIG IS RUNNING IN BACKGROUND?
    I AM THINKING TO BUY AN SOLID STATE DRIVE, i hope that it will resolve the problem as it is compatible on both the mode. I will extend my HDD with SDD!
    Can i do it myself or shall i have to go to HP CENTER.
    DOES MY WARRANTY GETS VOID IF I OPEN THE LAPTOP BACK FOR THIS ?
    REPLY ASAP (URGENT)

    Hi,
    Disk Usage 100% does not mean disk full but there is task which is doing a lot of i/o during that time (probably swap/page file). If nothing using i/o, the number should be down to 0% as shown:
    Now, I start a download, you can see both disk usage and Networks activities:
    In your case, the utility may do a lot of i/o to the swap/page file. My suggestion: stop it or BUYING MORE RAM.
    Hope this helps.

  • Lightroom Mobile on Surface Pro

    I've been trying to find an answer to this question but have had no luck. I use Adobe Lightroom as part of my Creative Cloud Membership on my desktop for a majority of my photo editing. All is good there.
    In Lightroom I've signed in and made some of my Collections editable on the cloud. I love that I can use my iPad or my Android Phone using the Lightroom Mobile App to do some light editing whenever I'm away from my desktop.
    I have a Surface Pro tablet also and I would love to use my Surface Pro to edit photos when away from my desktop. My problem is  it doesn't seem like Lightroom on the Surface has the same capabilities to edit the catalogs that I've set to be in the cloud.
    Am I not understanding how Online/Mobile/Tablets work together or am I wanting to do something that isn't possible. It just seems like a Surface Pro 3 should be able to do what my iPad and phone can do.
    I've read all about putting catalogs on dropbox and have the images on a removable drive and understand how that works, it just seems much more burdensome than the easier iPad/phone ease of use.
    Thanks-Scott

    You want to share LR and its photos on two desktop-capable systems.   LR is a single-user program that needs the catalog attached locally. 
    The way I accomplish what you want is to have my LR catalog and photos on a portable USB3-attached 2TB drive and carry that with me.  Because the drive is portable and subject to loss or theft or damage I backup my 2TB drive to another 2TB drive when I am at my main desktop computer.  I basically copy everything on the main drive to the backup drive but using options in my backup program to only copy files that are different either in time-stamp or filesize which works out to my new photos, my LR catalog and some LR preview files.  I have had the portable drive fail and merely replace my backup drive and use my former backup for my primary work, immediately, or as soon as I have copied things to the new backup drive.

  • High disk usage/high memory usage.

    i keep getting high memory usage and high disk usage in ps cs6.
    its slow when i open a file. how can i solve this problem.
    thank you.
    philip.

    Not to put too fine a point on it, but more than what?  More RAM is almost always better, but you haven't answered most of the questions posed here.  The answer might be different if you have 2 GB of RAM or 32 GB of RAM already.  A 9 megapixel document could get rather large with a lot of layers, but again you've neglected to give any hard info about its size.
    Regarding your video card, that's a bit of a judgment call you need to make.  For Photoshop CS6 I currently advise people to try to get a video card that gets a score of 1000 or better on this benchmark:  http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html
    Video card speed will matter when you're editing those 3D components and video card VRAM will also matter, but possibly even more importantly your GeForce 320 is a bit old, and nVidia may just not be doing their best driver work for it any more. 
    Everything in general will run more smoothly with a powerful modern video card.  I like to recommend a VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 7750 - or if the computer power supply and your budget allow, the even more powerful 7850.  VisionTek does a very good job with their hardware, IMO, and it comes with a lifetime guarantee. 
    Keep in mind that if you switch from nVidia to ATI or vice versa, you should carefully sweep your system to ensure all files from the old card are removed, then visit the web site of the new card's maker and download/install their latest display driver release.
    Best of luck.

  • How to delete all photos in Lightroom Mobile?

    I would like to delete all of the photos in my Lightroom Mobile photo library. A one-step procedure would be ideal.
    For background: My Lightroom desktop catalog has tens of thousands of photos and hundreds of collections. When I was first getting familiar with Lightroom Mobile, I synced all of my photos with the service. This was a mistake; I did not realize that this would result in large amounts of data filling up my mobile devices (I thought the service worked more like Dropbox, OneDrive, etc., where photos are loaded as-needed). My Lightroom Mobile photo library is now much too large to fit on my mobile device, and even partially syncing fills up my devices immediately. I want to clear out my library and start over.
    Individually selecting each image in the web interface is not a practical solution. It is also not practical to keep all of the photos in Lightroom mobile and then delete unwanted collections from individual mobile devices, since this would involve deleting hundreds of events from each mobile device each time I set up Lightroom Mobile. I would like to clear my library and start over with a small number of synced collections.
    Any advice on how this could be done would be appreciated!

    In Preferences > Lightroom Mobile, there's a Delete all Data button.

  • Lightroom 5.5 & Lightroom Mobile (iPhone 5) Sync Issues

    So far I have been having nothing but issues getting Lightroom Mobile and Lightroom 5.5 to sync with one another.  This is admittedly the first time I've tried this since I don't have the iPad version.  I tried a sync yesterday for the first time from my phone and had an import of around 650 images and I had set Lightroom Mobile to sync only over Wifi.  Started syncing ok, but I guess I roamed away from my Wifi for a bit and that completely messed up the sync process.  Not only did it not finish the sync, but it somehow corrupted the app to the point where the entire app had to be deleted from the iPhone 5 and re-installed.
    This seemed to just present more problems for Lightroom.  There appears to be a default album called "iPhone Photos" that seems to never be found again through setup of a new instance of Lightroom.  Instead, I my account is now up to "iPhone Photos 4" now in the count.  In addition, only about 600 of the 650 photos synced up to the cloud and now Lightroom 5.5 for the desktop is stuck with 210 photos left to import and my computer has been sitting like this for close to an hour this morning.  Is there anyway to troubleshoot what is going on or to completely reset one's Lightroom account to start this back to the beginning.  So far this is a very frustrating update for something that sounded so promising to begin with.

    Greule,
    When the sync was interrupted on the iPhone the application suddenly crashed.  I attempted to re-open and was presented with a crash report pop up window that asked me to send a report or not send.  Unfortunately, that pop-up forced the app to shut down.  I then tried a manual force close of the iPhone app, (double click the home button and swipe the app away from memory) and while the app appeared to re-launch itself from scratch, it ended up at that report send pop up and shut down.  In the end, I was forced to go to the data management settings in the iPhone and attempted to delete the data and in the end, I deleted the app and re-downloaded from the app store to fix.
    I did just do the "Delete all Data" from the Desktop preferences and it seems it cleared out the collection that was online.  I tried to setup a new collection with the same name, but it appears that the Lightroom online library is preventing name duplication even when another catalog with the same name no longer exists in the account and ended up with an incremental number increase on the collection name.  Now that the collection is gone, if I try to re-sync with my Photo Library from my iPhone will it act as a traditional Lightroom import where duplicate files are scanned for before import?  Or do I have to manage that?
    To be honest, I was hoping for this to be an advanced replacement of the Photo Stream feature from Apple, but is that what this is supposed to be?

  • Lightroom 5.4 to Lightroom Mobile sync is soooo slow - why no local sync?

    I am testing the new Lightroom 5.4 with Lightoom Mobile. What really annoys me is the fact that all photos are going up to the Creative Cloud. I have private pictures which should be private. Always. No upload. No Cloud sync. It is important!
    Speed is the next major problem. LR 5 is way too slow for a fluid workflow. But this is mentioned from other users.
    What absolutely makes me sad ist the sync speed of LR5.4 to LR Mobile. 100 Photos took up to 4 hours. On a typical wedding I have 2000+ images. Depending on the speed of the first 100 photos I have to wait 80+ hours? Are you kiddding me? This makes LR Mobile unusable. My clients are expecting results fast. Speed is one factor to the next contract.
    Overall, I don't want to sync anything into the Cloud. I want a to use my fast local sync via WiFi or USB. Only those two options. I want to sync photos even without any internet connection successfully and quickly.
    I'm fine with authentication with Adobe servers for licensing verification. But that's it. The rest should be configurable by the users whether they Cloud sync or not.

    Tom, thank you for taking your time to come here and enlighten us with the decision making process behind what was done. Like it was said before here, the Lightroom Mobile so far has been very, very frustrating. I came home very excited to test it and make my dream come true. To be able to take my catalog (or a shoot) with me on the subway, etc and be able to choose the photos on my iPad. See, I am a photographer and I shoot mainly fashion and beauty, so my workflow starts as soon as I finish shooting by importing all images into Lightroom and then going through the painstaking process of choosing which picture to use. I would shoot anywhere between 5-12 looks in a day, around 100 photos per look and at the end of the process I need to choose only one photo from each look. This normally involves going back multiple times to be able to get to only one from each look. The LR Mobile would have been the perfect solution for me, making me able to look at photos while out of the office, on the subway, at home, etc. It would have made my editing process much faster (or less slow). Instead, I've been sitting and waiting for 6 hours so far and only 18 photos showed up on my iPad (from the 500+ that were chosen to be synced from my desktop LR. Now I know it's not my internet that is making it that slow because I have 80+Mbps of download and 40+Mbps upload. And that haven't helped me much as my LR is stuck on "Syncing 527 photos" for the last 5 hours. Most professional photographers that I know deal with a huge amount of photos from a photoshoot. Wedding, fashion, advertising, we all shoot 1000+ images in any given work day. To come home and have to wait 100 hours before we are able to edit on the iPad is just not useful. This will be useful for the amateur photographer that will take photos of their children/dog/flowers and want to be able to show their guests the photos without having to get them in front of the computer.
    Now I understand what you said about having to have a centralized place so that all the clients up to date on the changes, and I think that is great but I also think that it's paramount that there's a different way of syncing, a faster, more efficient way. Even if it is, like mentioned, not a "everything in sync" solution. Something like sync the desktop to the iPad and only those two work together. If both are changed before the next sync, a "the 'blabla' catalog has been changed since you last synced, do you want to overwrite it?" takes care of the problem, much in the same way that Photoshop asks us when we are saving something that has been somewhat modified by some external agent between saves. But the beauty of shooting all day, loading everything in Lightroom at night at the hotel and in the morning catch your flight and edit your shoot on the iPad while traveling, or being able to show the clients on the iPad right after you shot the wedding, or (what I was dreaming was going to be possible just to have my dreams crushed when started to use it) shooting tethered on the job and giving the art director the iPad so that he/she can see the shots without having to stay in front of the computer during the whole shoot. Now THAT would be a game changer! That was what I was expecting from LR Mobile but unfortunately got disappointed. I'd pay for the app alone if it did that!

    Do you mean you are trying to sync files from Creative Cloud to mobile and it doesn't work? I don't know much about Lightroom. It's better to ask your question at Photoshop Lightroom.
