Hey Rikk... I am a photographer and trying to get photos to clients but when importing from SD card I'm getting the checking for free space on disk error message... I have a brand new MacBook and should have plenty of space.  What do I need to do?

I am still having this issue as well. 

 

MacOS 10.15.6

Lightroom 3.4

 

I keep hoping updates and re-installs will fix it, but it doesn't. It has been 4 months for me.

This should be fixed in the next Lightroom Desktop release.
