Ever since the V10 update my email out of LR Classic has quit working, but instead returns the above error message.  I have reset the preferences, deleted and readded my email client to no avail.  Still does not work and from the forum, it looks like there are lots of nil value errors happening.

@rafsax  Adobe told me their solution right now was to roll back to the last version.  Not an option for me.  I have also discovered that when building a slide show, music cannot be added.  Again something new since this update.  So as far as I am concerned, the answer is no, there are no solutions yet.

@joe_hudspeth yes Joe, but at least they didn't make you jump through hoops before admitting that the only answer was to roll back.  I wont roll back, but I'm might roll off the Adobe platform.

After being on a chat with an Adobe person, their solution was to roll back to the previous version.  I told them that that was not an option,  So, they either don't care, or don't have the fix yet figured out.  Seems to be a lot of us with this same problem, so hopefully they will come up with a solution.  Until then.................Adobe has closed the Customer Care case.
