Flickr Plugin - can't authorize

Hi,
I have Lightroom 4.4 on a macbook pro with Yosemite v 10.10.1.
When i try to authorize Flickr to then later upload photos it won't authorize. I am logged in to flickr in my Safari and Chrome browsers. Its says after i click 'authorize' in the Lightroom Publishing Manager, 'waiting for response' and then 'not authorized'. There is no error message and i can't proceed.
Pls help
Thanks
Paul

Thank you **so** much for posting the answer. I ran into the same problem after switching to a new, Win8.1 machine. After seeing your answer, I enabled IE as the default browser and it worked. What a PITA! Now to quickly switch back to Chrome default browser...

Lightroom 4.1: Publishing Service Flickr plugin; Using HTML in Caption field

All,
After hours of troubleshooting I have narrowed down a problem with an error message I’m getting when I try to export from Lightroom 4.1 using the Flickr Publishing service. The error msg is:
Can't update this collection
Could not contact the Flickr web service. Please check your Internet connection
I have narrowed down the problem to my attempt to add basic HTML tags to the Caption (Description) Field of the Meta Data. This has worked perfectly well in all versions of Lightroom 3.6 and below (I didn’t try this type of export using Lightroom 4.0). I have also noticed that a simple page break, such as below, will also throw the same error:
“Lorem ipsum @evansante.com dolor sit amet, consectetuer
adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat veniam, quis nostrud exerci t”
Flickr will recognize URL in simple text and format them properly so:
“Lorem ipsum http://www.myurl.com dolor sit amet, consectetuer “
Will work.
Does anyone know of a work around that will allow including page breaks or HTML??? Thanks in advance - CES

This bug, in a related way, has been noted by several users some time ago …
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/999503?tstart=30
and was reported as a bug a month ago during the release candidate period …
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/lightroom_4_1_rc2_a_cr_or_lf_n_the_m iddle_of_a_caption_causes_failure_to_connect_to_flickr
Although the above mentioned bug is raised specifically in relation to “Breaks” in the caption text I believe it may be symptomatic of either generically poor XML information encoding by LR when talking to Flickr or poor / incorrect use of Flickr Api’s which cannot cope with trivial complexity in the caption field.
– in either case it needs fixing with some priority in my opinion, but possibly the philosophy of the on-going Flickr plugin support needs fixing too.
The LR Flickr publishing service has not been maintained very well in my opinion even when fixes may sometimes be trivial.     Perhaps Adobe would do well to employ or contract with JF for such plugins in future.    I use the excellent SmugMug plugin as the yardstick by which I measure the Flickr plugin.
A fix should also be treated as priority because the LR error message takes aim at the reliability of your internet connection which may cause some to erroneously try to chase down non-existent problems with a perfectly good infra-structure or OS / Firewall configuration – that is seriously bad advice for a caption related LR bug and has scope to seriously compound the problem for the user!
Adobe, you have a responsibility to fix this before people mess with their reliable setups.
Sorry, I am not aware of any work rounds to your problem with this and suspect it may be a windows only problem (please confirm if not).
Although not entirely exactly as per your problem (I believe it is generically the same) you may wish to add your vote to the above mentioned problem report or raise a new one.

Flickr plugin broken

As with the Facebook plugin, and discussion here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4854227 the flickr plugin (and anything that writes to the temporary area) are broken on Windows 7, at least since the latest Windows update. The plugin crashes because it can't write temporary files to the drive. I am running Lightroom 4.2 and Flickr Plugin 4.2.0.850741. Instead I installed Jeffry Friedl's Flickr plugin as a workaround, which does not have this issue (http://regex.info/blog/lightroom-goodies/facebook).
Adobe, please look at this!

Also, I used Microsoft's Process Monitor to track which files were written when I published a 1-photo collection to Flickr:
These are exactly the directories and files you'd expect, which suggests something very curious on your configuration. A screenshot of the error message might produce more clues.

Flickr plugin issue corrected in LR 5.2 RC

I just installed Lightroom 5.2 RC, and confirmed that the bug related to video upload limits has been corrected. I've reported this issue in several forums. The issue occurred because the Flickr plugin enforced a 2 movie per month upload limit. However, Flickr lifted that limitation back in May. The current video limits are less than 3 minutes in length, and no greater than 1 GB in size. I just uploaded an event which contained 5 videos. Fantastic!
Thank you for fixing this Adobe!

It doesn't appear that either of the two profiles you listed are specifically for the newer Nikkor 18-35mm 'G' lens. You can use the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader to install the available 1.0 crop factor profiles. One is listed as a 'D' lens, which is clearly not what you want. The other two don't specify which lens was used. Try the two below and see if the Vignetting and Distortion corrections appear correct with one of them. Since this lens was introduced a little over six months ago my guess is that none of the Adobe or Download lens profiles are for the 'G' lens, which is substantially improved over the 'D' lens. You may be able to use them by reducing the "default" Distortion and Vignetteing settings from 100. You'll need to check the results over the zoom range for distortion and aperature range for vignetting. Keep in mind that full 100% correction of vignetting and distortion is usually not desireable with a super wideangle zoom, which can make the image look "unnatural."

Disable Jeffrey Friedl's Flickr Plugin before installing LR3

If you're using Jeffrey Friedl's Flickr plugin in LR2, save yourself some grief and disable it before installing LR3. If you don't, LR3 won't start up properly and it will give you a very misleading message that it can't open your converted LR2 catalog. It makes you think that something went wrong converting the LR2 catalog, but it really didn't. I finally figured this out by deleting my converted LR2 catalog, then starting LR3 and telling it to create a new catalog instead of converting my LR2 catalog. It did this, and then gave me the true error message that the flickr plugin was not compatible with LR3 and it automatically disabled it. At this point, I was able to select my LR2 catalog to open (from within LR3) and it went through the conversion process again and successfully opened the catalog. Jeffrey currently only has a beta version of his LR3 compatible flickr plugin. You can find it on his blog.http://regex.info/blog/2010-06-08/1539

kirbinster, sounds like you might also have other issues with your installation. I didn't have the issue with the help files. So, I'm not sure. You might try uninstalling LR3 and starting over, assuming you still have your LR2 catalog intact. Before you re-install, go into the plugin manager in LR2 and disable the Flickr plugin.

How do I remove the flickr plugin in lightroom 3

I'm trying lightroom 3 at the moment, but I can't seem to remove the flickr plugin. It's rather an eye-sore in the UI, and since I don't want to use it (after all, who decided that every person in the world uses flickr?) I want it gone. However, going to the plugin management, I can't remove it, and I can't disable it either, despite it being a "plugin", and not a baked-in program feature. I can "hide" it in the UI, which is a decent intermediary solution, but it doesn't solve the fact that there's a mystery plugin installed that I can't remove. (and I hate adobe's tendency to put stuff on my HD I didn't ask for, nor would have consented to if asked)
So: how do I uninstall and remove this plugin?

Hmm, Not being familiar with MacOS's package management, I have no idea where to even look for what you describe in Windows. There's only in-program plugin management, using file -> plugin manager (In this manager I can disable the plugin, but not remove it), and there's the Windows "programs and features" control, which is Windows' installed package manager, but it only offers me the option to repair or uninstall all of lightroom, but not individual parts of it.

Can I authorize 2 apple IDs on one computer?

I'm new to the communities so please bear with me if I post this inappropriately.
My husband and I both have iphones. My two children have itouchs. My husband has an ipad. We also have numerous ipods.
We have two computers in the house. When my husband first bought an ipod, we had a PC. All of his devices have always been synced on the PC using his apple id. When I got my iphone, I synced on our MAC using my apple id. When the kids got itouches, they synced on the MAC using their apple id.
We discovered that anything the kids and I purchased on itunes on the MAC is available to all of us.
We would now like to use home sharing. To do this, both computers must be authorized to one apple id. If the PC is deauthorized for my husband's apple id, I understand he will lose his purchases on the PC (or at least they won't be available until he authorizes it again).
I understand that an apple id may be authorized on up to 5 computers. But what about multiple apple id on one computer???
My questions are basically this...
Can we authorize 2 or more apple id on one computer?
Can I authorize my apple id on the PC and have my husband's apple id remain authorized on the PC?
Can my husband's apple id be authorized on the MAC and my apple id remain authorized?
Can the kids apple id be authorized on each of the PC and the MAC?
Can we have 4 different apple id authorized on a computer at once?
Will authorizing my apple id on the PC de-authorize my husband's apple id?
How's that for asking the same question in lots of different ways? I have seen a lot about a computer using the same id multiple times but nothing about whether I can authorize many different ids on one computer at once.
Thanks for the help.

Each person in your home can have their own Apple ID provided it is tied the their own separate email address.
iTunes permits up to five authorized computers connected to a single Apple ID: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
For this all to work well, however, each user in your household should have a separate user account on the computer they commonly use.

You cannot. iTunes purchases remain on the iTunes account they were purchased with.

So just upload them from iTunes.
You have mulitple AppleIDs?
Why?

Can I authorize multiple accounts on one computer?

Can I authorize multiple accounts on one computer?

Unfortunately you can't do the logical and convenient thing of authorizing a computer with multiple Adobe IDs that are active simultaneously.
You can authorize accounts from different vendors; one account per vendor.
If you have multiple operating system users set up on the computer, you can register different OS users as different Adobe Account users.

My wife has a laptop and an iphone 4s, I have a laptop and and iphone 4s, our two sons have our old iphone 3s, we have an old laptop for our sons to use. Our old iphones for our sons are deactivated as phones - so they are used as i-touches for songs, pictures and aps. I want to use icloud (which I'm new to) to hopefully have all four iphones and all three computers stay synced with at least music - if not aps and pictures. My wife has an apple ID and I have one. I'd like to authorize all three laptops for both apple IDs so that we will still have our own accounts, but everything either of us buys will be automatically loaded into all three laptops and all four iphones. Can this be done?
Thanks,

Can I authorize more than five computers on one iTunes account?

Can I authorize more than five computers on one iTunes account? I have several PC's being used as HTPC's and I'd like to use iTunes on all of them. My three iPhones and three PC's have taken up all of my authorizations. If I need to create a second iTunes account, can it be linked to my existing account?

Todd, some suggested reading, none of which looks to me as requiring authorization as an iTunes device for Apple TV:
