yes,  I imported the RAW NEF file from my SD card to the lightroom on my ipad, and I can export the image to the ipad. However, when I open the lightroom in my mac and try to export the image to the mac, it reports the error.

One possibility is that the copy of the photo on your computer is corrupted. If that's the case, you have to replace it with a good copy (copy on your iPad or backup).
