Hi There
Is it possible to have a master lightroom catalog and raw store on one PC that syncs the catalogs with smart previews onto other lightroom cc devices, without the ridiculously stupid need to have it download over the internet for each instance?
I'm on trial ver right now but this is a ridiculous obstruction to paying you guys money wouldn't you say?
Thanks

The forum is user-to-user, not to-Adobe. No-one owes you anything, and when you come here with an attitude.....
Anyway, you also asked in the wrong forum. Not your fault. This is for users of "Lightroom CC" which is what Adobe call their new cloud-dependent Mac/PC app whose master catalogue remains in Adobe's cloud. You are asking a question about what Adobe now call "Lightroom Classic", which used to be called "Lightroom CC". Yeah, we're all confused.
But there is no local sync in Lightroom Classic. You can have your master catalogue and raw files on your main computer, sync smart previews to the cloud, and access them as smart previews on other computers using Lightroom CC or a web browser or mobile device. But no local sync. The lack of local sync may lose a few customers, but I imagine Adobe lose more through the subscription model. You can't please everyone.

Thanks John.
Sorry about the attitude but its nothing personal. I'm used to just posting grievances immediately to facebook or social media, since most employees only bother doing whats on their priority list. And unless a manager prioritizes nothing happens.
Generally that gets immediate service. Never any feedback about attitude.
Nothing wrong with that. If a company wants to retain customers then they better bend over backwards for my business. Nothing personal.
What do you think is a good place to ask uncomfortable questions very embarrassingly and publicly about the lightroom mobile product architecture which can only be realistically used with a 100 gigabit internet line?

In the Photoshop Family forum. It is monitored by Adobe marketing/engineers, while this forum is mainly users with occasional support staff.
There's already a thread Lightroom mobile: I would like to synchronize over LAN instead of internet
