Good evening friends,

 

As the title says, I have a set of photos I have been editing from two different adobe accounts due to me working from home verses at my office. I uploaded my photos on my work account and shared them with my personal account. Now I am trying to export them with my watermark from my personal account and I am not even getting the option to. Any ideas? I have full access on my personal account.

I don't think Adobe will let you add your watermark when you export images that are shared with you, on the basis that they're not your photos. I know that you'll say that they are, but Adobe wouldn't know that.

 

The solution is to do the sharing from your personal account, not the other way round. So you would create an album using your personal account, set the options to "Can Contribute" then send the invitation to your work account email address.

From your work account email, accept the invitation, then open LrD  or LrWeb using the work account. The new shared album will appear in the "Shared with you" album list, select the images that you want in your personal account and add them to the new album. Now, when you log back into your personal account, open that new album and you should find that the watermark option will be available when you try to export.
