Suddenly impossible to download any photo from Lightroom mobile on android

[Zaicab]

Until a few months back, I was able to simply select any photo from any album in the app and share-download or share-export to get it on my device. Then, I started getting the same error on every attempt. See screenshot. I let go and assumed the bug would be fixed and the problem would go away by itself... not so... Pls help

Note

-this happens with every photo, not just a few

-clearing the cache does not help

-reinstalling the app does not help

-yes, the device has ample storage left and is up to date

-I presume storage permission is ok, as there is no toggle

Seems people have ben having this issue since at least 2018??

Hey Zaicab, 

Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll help you figure this out.

What version of Lightroom & the Android OS are you working on?

Does this happen with recently imported images, or do older photos not export as expected?

Please log on to Lightroom Web (https://adobe.ly/3MG3h5u) & ensure all the images are synced.

Thanks, 

Shivani

Hi Shivani, thx for reaching out, much appreciated...

I cannot download any photo, new no old, neither individually nor as part of a series.

Phone is a Samsung Note 20, with 300Gb free space - running Android 13

Lightroom Mobile was reinstalled yesterday so should be 7.5 - reinstalling did not help

All images are synced - fyi: I work on an up to date version of Lightroom Classic on desktop v13.3

Thx cheers, phb
