Hi! When I export back from Lightroom, color saturation increases / color changes, which in my case makes the image useless. I am using Lightroom version 8.2, Macbook Pro Sequoia 15.3.2. I have done thousands of images & this is first time it's happening today. I haven't change any settings. Really need help on this. Thank you.

Hello I had the same problem last night I found out. I edit on my Asus ProArt Studiobook and everytime I normally export images they look the same across all platforms including my own laptop. However yesterday I see after exporting images, uploading a few to pic time and discord the images are way to dark and off color, and I'm using the same exact screen to see the differences. Would love to know if anyone has solved this problem? Yes I export using sRGB.

Hey @NeatRiver,

Thanks for sharing your Lightroom version and OS! I appreciate you noting that you're using the same settings—just to double-check, can you confirm that you're exporting in sRGB?

I'm having the same problem,. after just yesterday upgrading my OS from Ventura to (the latest version of) Sequoia, my SRGB jpegs show reds lacking detail and with a warm color shift in both Preview and Capture One. When I try viewing as Soft Proof in LR Classic, with SRGB profile selected, it shows the washed out color. Any ideas?? I can provide screengrabs, if that helps (privately, as this is work for a company).

Here are screengrabs, actually, labeled for each view.

BTW, I'm using LR Classic 14.0.1, on Mac OS 15.4.1 on a M1 Max MBP
