Lightrrom Classic failed to export due to "watermarking failed". This happened over this weekend, and it had been working fine. My Lightroom is up to date, and I have found the preset in the preference.

I have tried to export with watermark on my other computer and it works. I would like to know happened  and how to fix it.

I have two iMacs, one has this problem, the other works fine. The two iMacs are independent to each other.

Thanks for the help.

@weic15496030  Have you scrolled down a bit further in the linked document? There you'll find some different methods (method 1 - 3) to reset the preferences.

It's recommended to backup your preferences before you reset the preferences to the default settings:

Hello, Nikunj,
Thank you for helping.
I have followed your instruction https://adobe.ly/4lDXtZw

Macintosh HD/Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Camera Raw/Settings

Under , there is no “Library”, and I am lost right here.
Could you please help further?
Thanks.

Hi, thanks for reaching out!

If you're facing the issue only on one of the machines, you can try to reset the preferences of Lightroom Classic on the machine on which you're experiencing this behavior using the steps mentioned here: https://adobe.ly/4lDXtZw


Thanks,
Nikunj
