You will then be returned to the
main Lightroom CC front screen
interface. You will be informed of the
upload progress of your images. You may
need to tap the cloud icon located in the
upper right of the UI and re-enter your
Adobe login details. We needed to do this
just the once, yet another device we were
using didn’t require it.
6 On the desktop version of Lightroom
Classic or CC, click on the Help
option from the top menu followed by
Updates. This will open the Creative
Cloud update manager window. If there
are updates for Lightroom, or any other
Adobe product you own or have on trial,
then click the button to apply the updates.

Specify the location and any sub
folders for the Lightroom images
that will be synced between the device
and the desktop. Click the OK button and
in the Lightroom CC, click on the Cloud
icon again to force an update. There will
be a small icon with a check mark in it to
indicate that your images are now synced
and backed up.10
Your synced photos from Lightroom
CC should now be uploading into
the desktop version of Lightroom Classic
CC. They can be located in the Catalogue
pane, under the All Synced Photographs
section. You can see the status of synced
photos from the Lightroom CC tab in the
Preferences window.8 The menu expands under your name
located in the top left corner of the
workspace, so click on the Sync With
Lightroom CC option. This may ask for an
updated username and password again,
so be prepared to enter it. The syncing
process will start and it will show you a
progress bar.7
Updating Lightroom Classic CC and
Lightroom CC versions ensures that
both versions are working to valid version
numbers. Often, an error in syncing is due
to one version not recognising the other
because of an update from one or the
other. You may need to restart Lightroom.
Now, click on your name in the top left of
the Lightroom desktop version.http://www.bdmpublications.com 19SYNCING LIGHTROOM
