Exporting Developed Photos

When I follow all the protocols to Export photos to another file or subfile, I get a message error that says they were not transferred. I am Windows based, using LR 1.41 in Windows Vista. The subfile was created but it is empty.
Is this a Vista issue or Lightroom issue? I'm a pretty experience LR and Photoshop CS2 user.
Regards and thanks for any help

I coudn't agree more!  I assumed that I would be able to edit photos on the iOS iPhoto, and then sync those with my OS X iPhoto main library.  Afterall, one reason I got the new iPad and iPhoto was to have the ability to immediately sort and edit photos away from my home Mac.  I never expected that transfering them would be such a challenge.  I've had to sync each one individually to the Camera Roll and then sync to my Mac.  (I haven't noticed a lot of compression though.  When I send one of the edited photos from my Mac, they are still in the 5-8 MB range). 
It does look like you have a "share" option with iTunes, but when I select that, nothing happens in iTunes.  What is supposed to happen?

  • When I export my photos and save them as a jpeg.  Am I still losing information?

    When I export my photos and save them as a jpeg.  Am I still losing information?  Would I be better of saving them as a TIFF or a PSD?  Also I know DNG is a digital negative, would that be the better format to save all my stuff?

    I apologize if you already thoroughly know all this (I couldn't be sure):
    When you export, you don't change the original (i.e. you never overwrite the original). So, you can export a million times and never lose quality (of the original), regardless of the export formats you choose.
    Of course the quality of the export depends on the chosen format, and if the format is lossy (e.g. jpeg), then export quality also depends on the size & quality settings.
    TIFF is lossless, so quality is essentially equivalent to the raw in Lightroom. It's the preferred format if a really BIG file is OK. Jpeg was invented to reduce file-size as much as possible without being too much inferior, quality-wise - and it does that very well.
    DNG is good for some stuff, but don't export your photos in DNG format unless you know what you are doing and why... Lot's of people like converting their originals to DNG format, but that's a whole different kettle of fish...
    Note, it may very well make sense to export a jpeg as tiff, since exporting a jpeg as jpeg is not as good. - reminder: when you export, you are not overwriting the original, you are making a new copy from the original, by combining it with develop edits if there have been any.

  • Magenta colour cast added to exported jpg photos

    I shoot raw with my Canon EOS 5D and import the raw images to LR. There is no Development preset. Colours in LR look OK on my calibrated monitor - this is not a camera calibration problem as suggested in LR help and knowledgebase; I have tested these solutions with no change. Basic edits are usually about exposure correction or spot removal.
    When I export the photos as a jpg files they have a magenta colour cast, sometimes quite strong. LR cannot be used for reliable prediction of what an exported photo will look like.
    I checked with Canon Digital Photo Professional. The colour of the original photo shown in DPP is exactly the same as the jpg colours. This makes me think that LR display render is unreliable.
    My system is as follows
    LR 1.4.1 on PC with XP Pro service pack 2
    LR installed on C: with over 80GB free space
    LR catalogue on second internal F: with over 34GB free space
    Photos on USB drive with over 220GB free space
    2GB RAM 2.4 GHz P4 with Dell 2408WFP LCD monitor
    LR export to sRGB 80% jpg 1000 pixels short edge (reduced from 4368x2912 pixel)

    >I calibrate my monitor with Monaco EZcolor 2.6.5 and an i1 calorimeter from x-rite. I have profiles for day time with natural light and for evening with artificial light. I have also tested the monitor with various pictures for black and for colour rendering.
    Excellent! Be aware that I have seen problems on this forum before because of defective colorimeters (a calorimeter is a device that measures heat BTW!).
    >I use LR and Photoshop CS2. I use Canon software to download the photos from my camera to sub folder of my own choice then I import them to LR. The colour rendition by LR and Photoshop are identical.
    That is a very good sign. If the color rendition between Lightroom and Photoshop is identical, you do not have a bad monitor profile, so we have to think about something else.
    >The exported jpg files are uploaded onto a web page at panoramio.com for use on Google Earth. Therefore I view the jpg files with Mozila Firefox 2.0.0.14 and with Google Earth 4.2 The colour rendition by Canon Digital Photo Professional of the raw file is identical to the jpg rendition by Firefox of the web site photo.
    Be aware that DPP can be set up to not color manage. There is a preference you have to turn on to make it color manage (you should if you want to trust the color). If you see a difference between Lightroom/Photoshop and an unmanaged browser, it is usually due to the fact that the browser is unmanaged. You cannot trust an unmanaged browser to show you the correct color even on a calibrated monitor. You still should not have a color cast in the neutrals though! Perhaps you should post some examples such as a direct Lightroom export (perhaps simply a link to the panoramio page) and a screenshot of what it looks like on your machine. That could perhaps narrow the issue down.
    Do images such as the third image down in the left column (labelled "sRGB Standard RGB 2.2 gamma") on this page http://www.gballard.net/psd/go_live_page_profile/embeddedJPEGprofiles.html look normal (i.e. normal skintones, not too saturated, neutral whites) on your screen?
    >I don't know about Firefox 3.0, it has not been offered in the normal auto update. I don't know about the secret setting for Firefox.

  • When I export a photo from lightroom, the image is very pixelated.

    When I export a photo from lightroom, the image is very pixelated. This pixelization occurs irrespective of whether I make adjustments in Lightroom.  It seems that just placeing the photo into he develope modual  without doing anything to it taints the image in such a manner that when it is exported from the develope modual the expot comes out pixelated.

    Brett,
    The photo i was a panorama knitted in Photoshop from four photos which were approx 3.3 MB each. The knitted pic came out to be 1.10MB. The panorama pic I was trying to refine in Lightroom and export came out to be 70.9 KB and extremly pixilated. Whether I altered it  in Lightroom  or not didn't matter.
    I can't imagine that bringing up the photo in the Develop modual would result in pixilization when it was exported regardless of whether it was altered or not altered.!!
    Attached is  a copy of the Photoshop saved and Lightroom exported photos before and after. I appreciate your help and interest. The top pic 1.10MB is what was saved on Photoshop. The bottom pic 70.9KB is the unaltered pic exported out of the Develop modual exhiiting the pixelization.

  • Bug? Export overwrites photos without permission

    Hi,
    I shoot all my photos as JPEG and RAW parallel. Both photos have the same file name, except the extensions.
    If I export the developed photo from LR 3.3, I'm not asked, if LR should overwrite the existing image or create a new one.
    In the export options I selected "Existing files:  Ask what to do".
    The algorithm works correct, if I export the photo from LR first (the file is created) and after some time again - then I'm asked, If the file should be overwritten.
    It looks like as the protection of existing files only works for files, created with LR and not with other programs / the camera.
    Is this a bug? How can I change this behavior?
    Many thanks
    Konrad

    Hi, Conrad.
    I'm not sure I grasp the details of your issue, but maybe I can help a little. I'm guessing you are worring about exporting as a jpg and having your original camera jpg overwritten. Not to worry. Lr has barriers to doing this by accident.
    Lr will only "Ask what to do" if there is a naming conflict. If you export as a jpg to a different folder than the Raw+jpg, there is no conflict. Lr just creates the new file with the same name as the the original jpg, but in a different folder. You can only have the same file name once per folder. But the file name can be used over and over, as long is it is in a different folder. If you export as a jpg to the same folder as the original, there is already a jpg there with that name. Lr recognizes this conflict and asks what to do. This dialog box appears.
    Even if you set your option to "Overwrite WITHOUT WARNING", you still get a warning. Which is good.
    But if you are exporting to a different folder than the original, you won't be asked or warned, because there is nothing to ask or warn about. The original jpg is safe and sound in the original folder, and the new jpg of the same name is safe and sound in the new folder. But if I try and drag the newly exported jpg into the same folder as the original, this box pops up.
    I'm pretty sure Lr export is not overwriting photos without permission. If you are exporting them to different folders, nothing is being overwritten.
    Try exporting a test photo with the same filename to the original folder and see what happens.
    FWIW.
    Peace,
    Lee

  • I am currently using Lightroom 5.6 and operating on a Mac with OSX Ver 10.9.5. I am receiving an error problem when doing the following -  I am exporting selected photos from a particular Catalogue saved on Drive 1 to a folder created on another Drive whe

    Hi, I am having a little trouble with exporting images to another drive and Catalogue and need some help if anyone can give me some advice
    I am currently using Lightroom 5.6 and operating on a Mac with OSX Ver 10.9.5.
    I am receiving an error problem when doing the following -
    I am exporting selected photos from a particular Catalogue saved on Drive 1 to a folder created on another Drive where a Lightroom Catalogue has been created. In this Catalogue I have arranged for the images once exported to be moved to a different folder - I used the Auto Import process under the File dialogue box.
    When processing the Export I receive an error message for each of the images being exported indicating the following -
    Heading Import Results
    Some import operations were not performed
    Could not move a file to requested location. (1)
    then a description of the image with file name
    Box Save As                                  Box  OK
    If I click the OK button to each image I can then go to the other Catalogue and all images are then transferred to the file as required.
    To click the OK button each time is time consuming, possibly I have missed an action or maybe you can advise an alternative method to save the time in actioning this process.
    Thanks if you can can help out.

    Thank You, but this is a gong show. Why is something that is so important to us all so very, very difficult to do?

    I need to export a photo at around 1meg file size,and dont seem to be able to do it in the presets can anyone help please ,I shoot on a canon 5d

    I believe Frank is referring to the end use (e.g., for print or on-screen use).
    Until he returns, I can tell you that I ran a quick test using an image from the Aperture 3 training book library which was as follows:
    Camera = Canon EOS 5D Mark II
    Master resolution = 5616 x 3744 (21 MP)
    I was able to export to a JPEG with end file size of 1 MB as follows:
    Export Presets drop-down > select 'Edit' option
    Selected preset name 'JPEG - 50% of Original Size' > change percentage value to 40% > change DPI value to '300' > click OK to set as current default > Export version to desktop.
    The exported JPEG has a resolution of 2246 x 1498 and appears on screen to have the same image quality of the original in Aperture.
    Note - I did not change the default Image Quality slider in the Export Preset dialog (which left it at 10).
    Basically, you will need to play around with the settings until you find the appropriate values to arrive at an image version you want.

  • I'm getting an error message in Lightroom 6 when I try to export a photo. It's "The specified folder is not writable". It doesn't matter which folder I pick, I get the same message. However, if I open the image in photoshop and then save it, it works just

    I've already reset my lightroom preferences, didn't work. I also uninstalled, and reinstalled lightroom. Didn't work either.
    I have no problems with any other programs including photoshop, so this has to be an issue with lightroom.
    Also, I can import from a memory card using lightroom and save to them to the folders just fine, the error only comes when I'm exporting a photo after I'm done editing in.
    I'm running windows 8.1 and the folders are all onedrive folders. (I have unlimited onedrive storage so I take full advantage of it.) I've always saved them this way, and only started having trouble after updating to Lightroom 6

    The problem with write permissions for the OneDrive folder only shows up in Lightroom 6's export dialogue, that's why it's to irritating. Lightroom 5.7.1 is not having that problem nor does the file explorer. The problem also exists on both of my machines. I will try to check for other problems with the OneDrive troubleshooter though: Running the OneDrive troubleshooter - Windows Help   

  • How do I export HDR photos made on Photoshop CS5 onto a flashdrive so I can use them on a window machine for commercial purposes.  Adobe support claims it is a apple problem not theirs.  PS the other window machine doesn't have Photoshop cs 5 installed?

    Hi, How do I export HDR photos made on a macpro with photoshop cs5 onto a flashdrive so they can be imported correctly into a windows machine that doesn't have photoshop installed on it?  Already exported to a HP flashdrive but they do not even show up on a windows machine. Need that capabillity since this is for commercial printing.  My wife's mac laptop only shows 3/4 of the picture the rest is grayed out.  Adobe support claims it is a Apple problem.  Love the finger pointing and hold me blameless atitude on their part.  Told them creating a picture should be like gas that can be used in anybody's car, just not their Adobe equipped ferrari.  Do I need to convert the file struture so it can be read by the window machine? How would I do that ?  Any comments appreciated. Doug

    I certainly wouldn't expect to read native PS CS5 files with all features intact and supported on a machine that doesn't have CS5 installed. Try saving the files as flattened (no layers) TIFFs before moving them to the flash drive and trying to open them on the Windoze box.

    I am using Lightroom 5.7, 64 bit with Windows 7 Professional. For no apparent reason, I now get an error message when I export a photo, say a raw image to a JPG. However, the exported image seems to be OK. But now I notice that my LR directory of folders in Library view does not show images correctly: If there is a folder with sub-folder(s), the folder will indicate 0 images, but the sub-folders show the proper number of images. What happened and is there a fix? I tried uninstalling Lightroom and re-installing, but problem persists.
    Here is a screen shot of the error message:

    The date they were taken us in the EXIF data and is included in the export

  • Problem with Aperture slideshow export - Some photos don't display!

    I have just completed my latest wedding slideshow. It plays as normal in Aperture, but when exported, certain photos don't show... just a black screen. The timings are unaffected.  Aperture 3.6, Yosemite 10.10.1
    The affected photos seem to be the ones that I am displaying for longer durations. I'm using Ken Burn's theme and if I turn off the Ken Burn's effect on the affected photo it gets exported ok. 
    Having spent many hours working on this slideshow I'm "slightly" annoyed!  This is obviously a bug introduced in Aperture 3.6 or Quicktime on Yosemite, I just hope it can be fixed ASAP.   Unfortunately, I guess Aperture is low on the priority list... I have moved the LR, but still rely on Aperture for slideshows!
    HELP!

    Luckily I still had a bootable pre-Yosemite backup of my iMac and have been able to successfully export the slideshow.  Hopefully, Apple will fix the problem before next wedding season!

  • How to export multiple photos in LR 5 inside of a custom frame?

    Hello, I photographed a photo booth for a dinner.
    I made a PNG frame and I want to export every photo inside of this frame that I made. (see below)
    How would I do this? I thought about making a script in Photoshop and exporting each individual photo with this script, but I couldn't get it to work. Suggestions?

    You can do this easily with the Slideshow module. I needed to change your background image from 5000 x 5000 to 5000 x 10000 so that it would properly "fit" the Slideshow frame rather than "fill." You can even add an EXIF Caption text and/or custom text. Once complete select all images and choose 'Export JPEG Slideshow' with Width = 5000 and Height = 5000 or ANY 1 x 1 aspect ratio resolution (i.e. 1200 x 1200, etc.). The JPEG files will be output to the 'named' folder. You can also output to PDF or video.

  • I changed the captions for my family photos to include names, but when I exported the photos to make DVD's for family members, the old captions were there and not the new ones. How can I make a DVD to include the new captions with names?

    I have labeled old family photos with names that I would like to share at a family reunion via DVD. When I export the photos to make the DVD, the old photo labels are back rather than the new labels with names. Can I export the photos with the new titles?

    iPhoto shows you these Titles but the Finder shows you Filenames
    If you export (File -> Export) you'll get the Export dialogue. Note the option at FileName to use the Title as filename for the exported photo
