Synced collections not visible in Lightroom, Lightroom for mobile

Issue

You are unable to view your synced collections on the Lightroom for mobile app or Lightroom on your desktop. 

  • Synced collections from Lightroom on your desktop are not visible in Lightroom for mobile, even though the Sync With Lightroom Mobile option is turned on.
  • Collections from the Lightroom for mobile app are not visible in Lightroom on your desktop. Tapping the cloud icon  in the mobile app shows that all is up to date and synced successfully.

Solution

To resolve this issue, follow the steps listed below in order:

Backup the synced catalog in Lightroom on your desktop

  1. Create a new Collection. In the Create Collection dialog that appears, do the following:

    • Input any desired Name.
    • In the Options area, deselect Sync with Lightroom mobile

    For details, see Create a collection.

  2. In the Catalog panel (Library module), select All Synced Photographs. Select all the photos in the All Synced Photographs catalog from the grid and then drag them to the new collection (created in the previous step) in the Collections panel.   

  3. Make a note of all the collections that are currently set up for syncing with Lightroom mobile. In the Collections panel, synced collections are indicated by  icon before the collection name.    

    Also make a note of the number of photos in the All Synced Photographs catalog.

  4. Close and exit Lightroom.
