Question

Lightroom won't export images and no error is given.

I first tried to move some images from LRC to PS using one of the "merge in PS" functions in LRC, but nothing happened.  I had used the same function days before and everything worked correctly.  I ended up manually going from PS and finding the photos location and doing the merge.  I continued working with my group of pictures in LRC and was ready to export.  I selected the images as usual and went through export procedure selecting where and how it should handle the pictures, hit go and it seemed to start, (showed a bar at the top left saying "exporting 57 jpegs", but the bar went immediately to 100% and froze.  I looked in the folder they were supposed to be saved in and there was nothing.  I tried several times with the same result.  Restarted LRC and restarted the computer, same result except no bar comes up in the top left corner.  No errors are displayed either.  My version was updated to V 14.0.1 in the last month.  I use Windows 11.

Posting again because it seems the first try got lost.

I first tried to move some images from LRC to PS using one of the "edit in" functions in LRC, but nothing happened.  I had used the same function days before and everything worked correctly.  I ended up manually going from PS and finding the photos location and doing the merge.  I continued working with my group of pictures in LRC and was ready to export.  I selected the images as usual and went through export procedure selecting where and how it should handle the pictures, hit go and it seemed to start, (showed a bar at the top left saying "exporting 57 jpegs", but the bar went immediately to 100% and froze.  I looked in the folder they were supposed to be saved in and there was nothing.  I tried several times with the same result.  Restarted LRC and restarted the computer, same result except no bar comes up in the top left corner.  No errors are displayed either.  My version was updated to V 14.0.1 in the last month.  I use Windows 11.  I cannot proceed with using LR until I solve this problem and have much more waiting.

Hi there,

 

Welcome to the Adobe Community!

 

We're sorry for the trouble you're seeing with merge option between Lightroom Classic and Photoshop. Are you using the below merge options?

 

Please check the images you are trying to merge in Photoshop, they should be completely available in Lightroom Classic. I mean you should be able to edit them first in to develop module and could be the another reason that you're unable to export them out from Lightroom Classic.

 

Let us know how it goes.

 

Thanks,
Mohit

For moving to PS, I selected the pictures, right click and select edit in,
then choose the function in PS that I want to perform. This is how I've
always performed this task.

Yes, I edit all the pictures in develop mode, go to the Library mode and
show the Library Grid (all the pictures visible), then select the pictures
for export. I click export and select where, etc. All the things I've
always done, but when I tell it to export, a flash of a progress bar
appears, but is gone before I can even read it and that's all that
happens. Nothing in the top left showing something is happening, no error
messages, nothing.
