I just did an update with my Lightroom Lr (cloud) and now I am having trouble with my exports. I want to set a custom name and have the number sequence after one and other by using "export with previous settings" but its not working I don't know where they are going. I have to do a reset with every image I export. Please help

      Greetings all,  

       

      A new update for the Adobe Photography products has been released.  The April release (x.3) contains an update regarding this issue. 

      If you do not see the update in your Creative Cloud Application, you can refresh it by pressing  [Ctrl/Cmd]+[Alt/Opt]+[ R ].

      Note: It may take up to 24 hours for your update to be available in your Creative Cloud app.

       

      Thank you for being so patient.

      When exporting several photots, Lightroom has always had the export previous settings option. It saves your file name and in sequence and will export it to the same place everytime. With the new update, it doesn’t work. It resets the file name and sequence every time you go to export a new photo. This needs to be fixed ASAP!

      A month ago I added my voice to this issue, including logs, as requested...and here I am again, with it still broken. This is one of those times that I find it regretable that there isn’t a viable alternative to Adobe, because there is zero chance that those affected will be compensated, despite the monthly subscription fees.

      I take it that everyone who subscribes to the cloud based service will be compensated for this issue that has been ongoing for weeks now. This is seriously slowing down my productivity and is incredibly frustrating. Come on Adobe, serious focus on resolving this issue is required on your end to release a fix for this failing on your part.

          Do you have a timeline for getting this fixed? This is getting silly now.

          When I try to export a photo w/ edits by selecting export with previous - nothing happens.  Used to work but now nothing.  Annoying.  Anyone else?

            Wish I found this thread before uninstalling lightroom multiple times. I thought I had a corrupted install. Hopefully there is a fix soon this is quite cumbersome.

              The shortcut CMD+E to export an image with previous settings no longer works.

              It's SUPER inconvenient to keep having to re-enter the same data for each image. This is really slowing down my professional workflow.
              Can there be an update to resolve this bug asap?
