P: Email not working-External error has occurred: ?:0 Attempt to index field 'font'( a nil value )

[J Hud]

Ever since the V10 update my email out of LR Classic has quit working, but instead returns the above error message.  I have reset the preferences, deleted and readded my email client to no avail.  Still does not work and from the forum, it looks like there are lots of nil value errors happening.

Any solutions?  I'm having the same problem.

[FeedbackCommunityMember]

Same here - I tried uninstalling/reinstall and different gmail accounts - all the same.

This bug needs to be fixed as email export not working is seriously tedious 

[FeedbackCommunityMember]

Same issue here! Standing by for solution.

Huge problem for me--might force me to temporarily flee from LR.  Just amazing this major bug wasn't picked up.  Funny thing is I was on with Adobe support for well over an hour today--they tried everything--sad thing is  is they obviously were't even aware that it's a reported bug.

[Lance5EA5]

Having the exact same problem. Upgraded to LR Classic  10 and now can't export photos to my email address. Everything worked fine until I updated to the  latest version . 

This really sucks. 

''An internal error has occurred: ?:0: attempt to index field 'font' (a nil value)''

I am having the same problem - have tried changing email preferences with no resolution.  Help!

[Rextilleon]

It's a bug in the program.  Nothing will fix it until the engineers get out a new version.  Best thing is to revert back to the previous version that worked.  

[Lance5EA5]

I do not think you can revert to older version once it updated to newer one, if you know how would appreciate knowing .

Thanks 

[Rextilleon]

Yes you can--Access in Creative Cloud--has a list of previous versions just install. Actually this is what they are suggesting over at Adobe. 

[Lance5EA5]

David hi,

Thanks so much I will try this  now, really appreciate it very much .

[darren_kendrick]

exactly the same issue happened to me.i can no longer export to email.same error message  internal error has occured ?:0: attempt to index failed  "font" (a nil value)

this has only happened since installing the new update ( v10.0) 

as above,running windows 10

[Rextilleon]

Dont bother calling Adobe Technical help.  Did absolutely no good and even with a follow up today they just had me repeat things that in no way solve the problem

[Lance5EA5]

You would think Adobe  might want to jump on the forum and help out , instead they have David  troubleshooting for everyone for free. :-]

LR 10.0  dazzled on the main stage but a big  bust at home.

Thanks a lot David, saves me tons of time, reverting with grinding teeth 😉

[Rextilleon]

This is what happens with Monopoly.  In the past, Adobe thoroughly beta-tested releases but that ended.   Just hate to see people waste their time going through the elaborate charade I had to deal with over the last two days.   I will keep you guys posted as to what if anything I hear.

Same issue with a gmail email export.  If I email using Outlook it works, but I cannot embed photos just attach

Lightroom Classic prepares a file for e-mail but then does not launch Apple Mail; the file just disappears. This was working perfectly before the latest upgrade of the software. For your information Photoshop 2021, when using 'share', performs this function without error. This is very frustrating as I am / was sharing files via e-mail on a daily basis.

[TXB50313682]

When trying to e-mail a picture from Lightroom Classic the file is processed but then simply does not launch Apple Mail; the file just disappears. This was working perfectly until the latest upgrade. Incidentally, Photoshop 2021 when using 'share' performs this function without error.

[darren_kendrick]

cheers michael but my outlook email address is the same as my main address. i only have an outlook email as my phone email system is pants,lol

unless i set up a new outlook account???

sorry but im really not tech minded

darren

[Rextilleon]

Best thing to do is wait for the update/or revert to previous version until the update comes out. 

[darren_kendrick]

michael,i tried sending the photo direct to my new outlook account and still got same message

[darren_kendrick]

@david_mintzer   how do i do that david? 

[mjbart]

my issue stated with the latest up date a few days ago.  When I launched following the update it said it needed to modify my catalog and since then I have had the email issue.

[Rikk Flohr: Photography]

The Lightroom Classic team has identified the issue and is working on a fix to be included in a future release.
