Hey guys, i've been having issues exporting a few photos, most others export fine, just a few that won't. I'm on the latest version of Lightroom, i've restarted my computer, uninstalled and reinstalled lightroom, and stored the album locally. I don't get a specific error code. I'll attatch a screenshot below. I do need these photos tomorrow so help would be much appreciated! Earlier when i right click and then get to the export page the left side which usually has the picture was blank/grey, i tried disabling watermark and content credentials but nothing changed, after restarting the app i could see the picture when i export but it always stopped and would send the error thing when the exporting got close to the end.
Thank you for your help!

Hi @michael freddiem81290235, Let's try to sort this out for you. First, please provide more information. Specifically, it would be helpful to know:

1. Steps to reproduce - send a list of the exact steps you take when encountering the issue.

2. System specs - the operating system and version you're using.

3. App Version - the version of Lightroom you're currently on.

 

In the meantime, here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

1. Reset Lightroom Preferences: Sometimes, resetting preferences can resolve unexpected behavior. To do this, open Lightroom and press Cmd + Opt + Shift (on Mac) or Ctrl + Alt + Shift (on Windows) immediately after launching the app. Confirm that you want to reset the preferences.

1. Check for Updates: Make sure both Lightroom and your operating system are up to date. Updates can often resolve compatibility issues and improve functionality.

2. Try Exporting to a Different Location: Sometimes, exporting to a different location on your computer can help. Try selecting a different folder or drive to see if that resolves the issue.

3. Disable Any Plugins: If you have any plugins installed, try disabling them to see if they might be causing the issue.

 

If you follow these steps and still encounter issues, please let me know, and we can explore further options together. Your detailed information and screenshot will be very helpful in diagnosing the problem. ^CH

Thanks for replying, i think the problem fixed itself a few days ago, not sure how or why, maybe it was an update.
