Have you changed Photo Mechanic's Color Class label names to match the same names you're using in Lightroom?

Can you post screen shots of your Preferences (General, Files, IPTC/XMP) so I can see what is going on?

And in Lightroom you have the same Label names?  I see that in PM you have:

Vent/Personlig
Photoshop
For kunde
vise nett
Typical
extra

Are the Label names in Lightroom exactly the same (spelling and case matters)?
