Some images could not be exported at the size you requested because we couldn't access the full size

I have migrated my Lightroom Classic catalog to Lightroom.

After this I made albums in Lightroom.

However in some of the albums I created in Lightroom when I try to export as large .JPEG's then Lightroom tells me "Some images could not be exported at the size you requested.....blablabla"

So when I go to the migrated Lightroom Catalog, which is not organized(It did not catch how it was organized in Lightroom Classic, so therefore I had to do it again in Lightroom)

Anyway when I go to this catalog the picture exsist and I can export full size, but as it's not organizen and 10 000photos it's a bit of work.

So what to do to fix this?

Lightroom version 5.4, Windows 10

Strange that your Lr interface does not show a Cloud Sync icon!

My Lr indicates sync with this-

Without sync, you do not have access to the full-size file in the Cloud.

Maybe your problem.

 

 

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.1.1, Photoshop 27.3.1, ACR 18.1.1, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.2 .

How much cloud storage do you have available? Maybe you can't upload the original raw files becuase there is no more room available for them.

I have 829GB available and have only used ~19% of my 1TB
So that cannot be the problem

If you really migrated the Lightroom Classic catalog to the cloud (menu "File - Migrate from..."), then you should have the original images in the cloud and so you should not get this message. It sounds like you did not migrate, but sync the Lightroom Classic catalog. In that case you do not get originals in the cloud, but smart previews. And that means you cannot export any larger than smart preview size.

I did really do that as I answered to Theresa above, and it seems to have the full size photos.

Once that was done I re-created albums to organize my photos, what I found out was that when I try to export from the album I created for example the Japan_Taiwan album it complains that it cannot find the original. However when I scroll through the "Migrated Lightroom Catalog-2" folder then it does find the original. But now the edit I did inside the album is gone, it only has the original raw photo....

It's not clear how you migrated your catalog. Lightroom stores images in a cloud. When you sync an image from Classic to Lightroom, a high resolution jpeg image is uploaded to the cloud, not the original. This is why you get the export message. The original full resolution image was not uploaded to the cloud. You can fix this by uploading the original image.

I migrated from Lightrom by using the option: File->Migrate From->Lightroom Classic Catalogue.

When I did that then everything I had organized in Lightroom Classic was gone it was all in one folder in Lightroom. (The "Migated Lightroom Catalog-2) as you can see below.

I then re-organized albums in Lightroom as you also can see below, when I'm trying to export from the albums it complains but when I find the photo in the "Migrated Lightroom Catalog-2" folder it has the original. The challenge is that this folder has 10k photos, so then my organizing work is then just a waste of time? Or?

How where the images organised in LrClassic before you migrated? Folders only, or did you also have them in collections as well? If you DID have them in Collections in Classic, those collections should also have been created in Lightroom during the Migration process. Have you actually expanded the "Migrated Lightroom Catalog-2" folder to see the contents?

 

Regarding the export issue, if you are trying to export an original and it fails, can you show a screenshot of the Export settings that you are using plus a screenshot of the error message, plus a screenshot of the Info panel for the image you are trying to export. Include the whole of the Info panel from top to bottom.
