Please note – the profile for the newly added Canon EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM lens is not automatically located when applying lens profile corrections. This is a bug and we will fix it in a future release.

The workaround is to:

Manually select the profile and choose “Save New Lens Profile Defaults” in the Setup menu on the Profile tab. From then on, the lens should automatically select when the profile is enabled.

Bugs Corrected in Lightroom 5.6
Collections with a custom sort order would sometimes not properly sync with Lightroom mobile.
Updated the “Adobe Standard” color profile for the Nikon D810. Please note that this only impacts customers who used Camera Raw 8.6 or DNG Converter 8.6 to convert NEF raw files from the D810 to DNG
Star ratings set in Lightroom mobile did not properly sync to Lightroom desktop. Please note that this only occurred on images that were added to Lightroom mobile from the camera roll
Resolved the issues causing the persistent “Syncing … images” state that some of our customers have reported.”
Star ratings would sometimes not sync from Lightroom desktop to Lightroom mobile. Please note that this only occurred when attempting to sync a Collection that contained more than 100 photos that already contained star ratings.
Added information to the “System Info” dialogue to help designate if the customer installed Lightroom from the Creative Cloud.
Unable to open sRaw files from the Nikon D810. Please note that this only impacted customers that converted D810 sRaw files to DNG in either Camera Raw 8.6 RC or DNG Converter 8.6 RC.
Images with invalid GPS coordinates would not properly sync with Lightroom mobile
Lightroom occasionally crashed when changing image selection on Windows. Please note that this only occurred on the Windows platform.
