Lightroom mobile login not working (attempt to index a nil value)
I tried to login in to lightroom mobile on my mac, but lightroom keeps rejecting my login, saying I "attempt to index a nil value". This problem is independent from the catalog I use. Any advice?
Hi de Lachos,
1. Launch LR. Go to Edit > Preferences > Presets tab > click "Show Lightroom Presets Folder"
2. rename the "Lightroom" presets folder to "Lightroom-x"
3. Quit and relaunch LR. It will ask you to manually find your catalog.
4. See if the problem went away.

Regarding Lightroom Slideshow module: When I click on the preview button I get the following error: An internal error has occurred: ?:0: attempt at index a nil value. This occurs with any group of images I select in my catalog.
Jeannine,
If you follow the advice of the previous poster Julie Kmoch and then gradualy add presets back in one at a time you might be able to find the one that is causing the issue. I may be guessing, but I believe the issue has something to do with either an incompatible Preset setting (eg a older preset in newer version of LR) or a corrupt Preset.
Say you bought LR2 and imported a bunch of Presets from the internet, cuz 'Hey these effects are cool and I don't have to recreate the wheel', and then you upgraded to LR3 (not a clean install) and now one of the Presets that calls a certain slider setting or value that is different in LR3 doesn't work anymore. This might be why it throws the error, but again I am just speculating.
Location of LR Preset folder in Windows Vista/ Windows 7
C:/Users/<YourUserName>/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom/Develop Presets
If you do not see the folder AppData, you may need to change the settings in Windows Explorer to 'Show Hidden Files and Folders'. To do that in Windows Vista/ Windows 7, open a Windows Explorer window, Click on Organize, then Foler and Search Options. Then click on the View tab and select the option button next to Show hidden files, folders and drives.
Hope this helps a bit,

An internal error has occurred: ?:0: attempt to index a nil value after installing LR5.5 update and trying to play or preview slideshow. Never had this problem before. I went to forums and see that this is a problem with previous versions and this only occurred after installing lastest update.

All of a sudden when I try to export images from LR to my HD...I get the following error
Unable to Export:
An internal error has occurred ?:0 atempt to index a nil value. What does this mean? How do I fix?Hi,
Same problem here. I am trying to export files from RAW format to JPEG. I am setting the output size to 2000k. I get the error message:
Attempt to index a nil value
The behavior is a bit random. If I export a large number of photos, some will work some won't. If I retry a picture that failed, it sometimes works or keeps failing. The input images are fairly similar in sizes.
In some cases, there is no error message but the new reduced-size image is not created.

Windows 7 Professional
Intel Core 2 Duo

Hard-drive: 1 TB, about 700 GB free.
Lightroom version 5.5
Camera Raw 8.5
This export operation was working previously (i.e., previous version of LR). I installed the 5.5 version on June 28 2014. The bug is probably in the new version of LR.

LR Error "attempt to index a nil value"
As of this evening, Lightroom has stopped working. At various times including startup (2x) I get a message saying "?:0: attempt to index a nil value". Then when the program is loaded, it appears to have an empty catalog.
At first I thought the problem might be a corrupted catalog file. However, if I hold down ALT at launch and specify another catalog, or if I create a new one, I get the same results.
Within the program, I see the message again when I switch modules to DEVELOP, or SLIDESHOW but not when I switch to WEB or PRINT. Once I've moved away from the LIBRARY module, any attempt to move back to it results in the message and staying on the same module I was on.
I am running Windows XP Pro SP2. There is 2gb RAM on the system and 24gb free disk space on C.
I tried UNINSTALLING the program then re-installing with the 2.1 update, but that made no difference.
Something that may be related: I installed the MS .NET 3.5 framework in between the last time I used LR successfully and the first time I saw it fail. I don't know if there is a conflict there... everything else I've tried seems fine and I've got a BUNCH of software installed.Jeannine,

Can't export to SmugMug due to error message "attempt to index a nil value"
I am trying to export images to SmuMug. I am getting the message that LR can't update files; an internal error has occurred ?:0 attempt to index a nil value. I've tried several times with different folders. About half of the original files exported before the problem occurred. Can someone tell me how to fix this? Thanks.
Here is an update from my original post. I also wrote smugmug and they have never replied; however, I think this has been either a network connection problem or a smugmug bug. Since the first post, I have had AT&T check my modem and they gave me a new one. Even though they replaced it, they did not think I had connection problems and thought my download/upload speeds were at the correct level. I also erased my hard drive and reinstalled my operating system and restored from back up as there seemed to be other issues with my computer. The computer is apparently fine, but before it was all over I bought a new 27" imac. Smugmug has also taken their system down and installed some bug fixes a couple of times lately. In sum, all I know is that now the export to smugmug feature is working fine. To rcheek6: try resetting your modem and see if that corrects the problem. Also email smugmug and see if they'll answer.

Unexpected sign-in failure: (attempt to index a nil value).
While trying to link LR and LR mobile, I'm consistently (several trys over a few hours) getting a message: "Lightroom has experienced an unexpected Sign-in failure. Please try again later. (attempt to index a nil value).

I tested Adobe CC then bought an educational license with another ID. I cannot use Lightroom Mobile. Message "Evaluation version has expired is displayed" and information in Preferences showing the old ID, not the new one. Disappointing support from Adobe. How to get rid of the old information and solve the problem?
Thanks but it did not work. Adobe (USA, not France) solved the problem. My subscription was not correctly entered in the database, it seems.

Lightroom mobile does not sync in Yosemite os
Lightroom Mobile does not sync after the Yosemite upgrade. It looks like it wants to but nothing happens?
Thanks.Could you try to remove the sync.lrdata file and restart Lr Desktop. This would restart/refresh the sync (metadata only).
Removing the Sync.lrdata might fix whatever the issue is. Or, at least, might trigger it to occur again. So remove the Sync.lrdata, start Lr, and then wait until it either syncs or gets stuck again and create at this point a Lr desktop diagnostic log which can hopefully provide some clues.
You can find the sync.lrdata file here:
On Mac it's at /Users/<user>/Library/Caches/Adobe/Lightroom/Sync Data/Sync.lrdata
Please send me the LR Desktop diagnostig log - best as a private message with a downloadable dropbox link.
You can trigger the log via LR Desktop preferences -> Lightroom Mobile and when you hold down the alt key you will notice a generate diagnostic log button
Thanks

I got an IPAD 4 from one my friend which is lost mode, tried reaching owner on his mobile, which not working, anyway to reach the owner of IPAD?
I"m afraid not. The iPad will be displaying only part of the ID, and Apple will not help you to find the owner's address (privacy laws). Without being able to reach the previous owner you will not be able to use the iPad.
