Lightroom 6.2.1 on iPad 2020 12.9 1TB (with 500GB free) - Tried 2x with the same error

Question

Hi Folks,

I have 30K pictures on my Adobe Cloud (also fully cached on my iPad) , I've selected 9289 good ones and I am trying to export (as is, no conversion) using the option "Export as original".

After 15 minutes thinking and validating I've got the prompt to save, so I've created a ipad folder called "test" and tried to "export". After 5 minutes I've got the error "The Operation couldn't be completed. Operation not permitted - Operation not permitted"

On the destination folder "test" only 2051 files (of 9289) was saved. As a former kernel developer (Solaris) I noticed that it is pretty close to 2048 (2x1024) limit, so I don't know if it makes sense but I can smell something as RFE for IPad OS or to Adobe.

Bottom line is:

* iPad with 500GB free

* 2020 12.9 6GB RAM (only running LR)

* Using local resources (iPad storage)

Please help! I don't know if anyone from Adobe could help me, otherwise I'd use my windows machine to get this done.

The best place to report bugs is on the following forum, which is monitored by the engineering team:

I'm pretty sure there used to be a technical limit years ago but don't know if there still is.
