While syncing images in Lightroom, one or more images remain in syncing state forever. Every time you launch Lightroom, you see that the same number of images are syncing and you do not know which images are stuck in syncing.
Issue
Solution
Solution 1
-
Open lightroom.adobe.com and select the Sync error folder under All Photos.
-
If there are any images in the sync error folder, pause the sync function on all the active devices and have a backup of the pictures you were trying to upload.
-
Then, clear the Sync Error folder and empty the Deleted folder.
-
Once that is completed, reupload the images.
Solution 2: Filter the images based on sync status
-
Click the filter icon
at the top and select Sync Status > Syncing.
Lightroom now displays those images that are trying to sync.
-
Select all the images and do one of the following:
- Delete the selected images and then import them again in Lightroom.
- Apply a flag or star rating to the selected images.
Solution 3: Check the Deleted folders
If filtering the images based on sync status returns no result, then chances are that the photo which is stuck in syncing state is in the Deleted folder.
