When I try to archive an album locally in Lightroom (version 7.4.1) I have an error message that said:

"Unable to download original file"

See attachement for details.

 

Operation made:

  1.  Right Click on the album to archive
  2.  Archive album locally...
  3.  Choose :Save to directory on local file system, Organize: Copy cloud album structure, Existing Files: Keep both
  4.  Click on Remove Button
  5.  Left corner some progress bar appears
  6.  And big the error dialog box 😞

 

Does someone knows how to fix this?

I will be very very grateful 😉

Cheers

Simeon

 

OS : Windows 11 Pro version 23H2

I'm on MacOS, although the the process seems the same.

 

It sounds like it's having trouble pulling from the Cloud. 

What happens if you select the Album and 'Make Album Available Offline' and then try to Archive Album Locally?

 

The only other thing is on Mac, it originally said........ Save To: Browse (where I selected the location).

Does yours actually say......  Choose :Save to directory on local file system (or had you selected a folder?)

Thanks for your answer and trying to help me.

Unfortunately "Make Album Available Offline" is not available.

For choosing the folder, I habe to click on arrow down (Save to) an then on explorer window choose the folder where I want to put my archive.
