Lightroom 3 Export - Seems to have problems in image sizing

I have attempted multiple times to export a set of files as JPG to disk, limiting both the dimensions, and selecting "Limit File Size" - and it simply does not work. All of the files exceed the requested size.
Can somebody offer a clue as to what I need to do to make this straightforward process work as it should?
Thanks
Bruce

I saw a great improvement in 3.2 dealing with fixed limit for file size.
A great improvement also for light JPEG quality.
With 3.2 you get very good 100ko jpeg. Before it was not good.
BUT with LR 3.3 i go back with problems as before LR2.
--> with a limit at 100k I get many 40Ko picture with.. low quality.
To be more precise: the quality of light JPEG is as good as 3.2, but the final size is further from target than with 3.2
Agree, LR 3.3 RC is overcompressing images. That is, the final size is usually much smaller that the target size, loosing your quality. LR 3.2 did it too, but to a smaller degree.

I tried transferring my iphoto library from my old macbook onto my new macbook pro, but when i open the new iphoto, it seems to have transferred ALL images ever used on my old macbook. now iphoto won't let me do anything to fix!!

i tried transferring my iphoto library from my old macbook onto my new macbook pro (via external hard drive), but when i open the new iphoto, it seems to have transferred ALL images ever used on my old macbook. so i tried to just delete all those images so i could try a different approach to transferring, but the new iphoto won't let me do anything and every time i try to delete anything it crashes (since the image amount is so high). please help!!

See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1229?viewlocale=en_US - I doubt that it will solve your problem, though. You may want to post on the iPhoto forum - that's where all of the iPhoto experts hang out.
Good luck,

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2), iphoto '11, version 9.4.2

To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

Are you using the latest version of Silverkeeper? - v.2.0.2 is stated to be compatible with Snow Leopard.

If it's messing things up you could try asking LaCie Support for assistance.

I have a MacBook Pro and I seem to have problems with my FaceTime. It want me to enter my apple ID, but when I do it comes up with a msg that says, "The server encountered an error processing registration. Try again later." What do I need to do?

I have a MacBook Pro and have problems using my Facetime. Last time I used it without problems. Now I am trying to use it, and it is asking that I enter my Apple ID. When doing so, it comes up with a message that says, "The server encountered an error processing registrion. Try again later." What does this mean, and how do I fix it? Thanks.

I had the same problem and found the solution here:

Lightroom 4. I have a large image (scanned) 10,000 X 14000 which does not Render when I try to print or export. Regular sized images work fine.

In Lightroom 4:Mac OS 10.6.8. I have an expecially large image (scanned) which is 10,000 X 14,000. I have edited it but when I try to print or export the image, it starts to "Rendering Page" but gets stuck and is unable to complete the task before it times out. When I use normal sized photo images (raw), it works fine. I suspect the problem is related to the size of the file. Is there some way I can reduce the size of the image while in Lightlroom? Or is there any other solution?

You originally posted on a thread that really wasn't related to your problem, so I branched the discussion.
Check the Windows System Event Viewer to see the details of the crash, most importantly the name of the faulting module.
Most crashes on Open or Save are due to OS bugs (especially on MacOS) or bugs in third party extensions to the OS open and save dialogs.

Lightroom export seems desaturated

Ok, I'm stumped.
Lately, I've noticed that the pictures I'm exporting out of Lightroom (5.4) seem very desaturated. This problem has been going on since before I upgraded to 5.4
Now my first thought is obviously color management, but here is the weird part: pictures that I've previously exported now look less saturated now too... In other words, a picture that looked great exported a few months ago looks drab after a new export (no new adjustments) when viewed side by side on my iPad. What could've changed?
Additionally, I can globally adjust both vibrance and/or saturation to ridiculous levels on a file and the exported files still look duller on export than I would expect.
Any ideas?

here is a sample. These pictures were from the same file (no adjustments) - just exported several weeks apart.
Another perplexing clue. I attached individual versions of the above two files to this discussion board and posted - they looked identical so I deleted that post thinking I was loosing my mind. I send both files to myself in an email then looked at them on my iPad and iphone. I could clearly see a difference. So I used a collage app to put the pictures side by side and sent them back in an email to my Macbook Pro....I can still see a difference now.
Someone smarter than me can hopefully chime in, but can the problem be with how IOS is rendering recently exported pictures from Lightroom. Again, pictures exported more than a month look the same from computer to device (I have 2 pads/2 iPhones in my home). Yet, the same file exported today looks dull on all ios devices. I should mention that picture sites/apps like 500px are G+ still look vibrant and normal in all ios devices so I know they are able to render color.
I have tried resetting my export presets and develop defaults - neither made a difference.
One last thing, I have Lightroom mobile, and images in synched catalogs look identical on either my ipad to MBP screen. But again, once exported and viewed from any ios device, the colors become dull.
Thank you for any suggestions.

Lightroom syncing seems to have stalled with mobile in last 30 hours

been using mobile since it dropped, was working well until the past 30 hours. Signed up for the CC, using updated LR software (updated the version I purchased last year. Synced over 40,000 photos, stress tested it in both directions with no problems until yesterday, even enabled offline editing for about 25,000 photos. Editing photos on both sides seem to take, but now nothing seems to sync, have 535 awaiting to sync for last day. Rebooted both iPad and Mac, optimized catalog, have 603 photos in the Sync Errors catalog, but they are in the proper collections... now at a loss

Guido... some more info.
before I saw your reply, I just went back and deleted the synced data within LR, deleted the app on the iPad, and started again. Synced 4 collections overnight, 2058 photos, LR shows they synced, nothing moved to iPad.
As I think more about this, the app worked great (although slow) when I synced with my version of LR during the trial. Within 24 hours after I "clicked" to join CC, the problems began to occur. I followed the instructions under your "join" tab in LR, never saw an option to download LR under CC, so I used mine. Yesterday, I first noticed the status of software under the CC icon, said all was fine.
I've enjoyed this app, getting photos organized and basic edits on a tablet. Had been using Revel since the day it dropped, using it from camera to iPad to Revel to LR, then back to Revel. I realize the progress Revel has made since its debut, looking forward to more from LR mobile and updated PS.
Attached is the log produced just now and after I deleted the 42,000 smart previews via LR drop down, and tried to recreate new photo syncs
thanks

Recently, i seem to have problems with a script that crashes my firefox 5. when i can get a "stop Script message, i get this :" Script: chrome://tabmixplus/content/tab/tab.js:561"

i have the tabmixplus 0.3.8.6 extension and i had firefox 4 a few weeks ago and never had a problem.
windows 7 ultimate edition
java update 6.0.26

that was useful. i tried to google the error, but the official extension forum did not show up at that time...it was listed, it seems to be a tabmix plus with colorful tabs error....i have disabled colorful tabs, cause its less useful than tabmix. thanks again for the help.

New Mac Pro seems to have problems - what type of re install?

I have a relatively New Mac Pro (2x 2.8 ghz 8 core with 4GB ram). I upgraded from a G5 and ran the migration assistant as normal. I use a lot of programs and use it daily on a professional basis. Mostly used programs are Mail, Safari, Photoshop, Bridge, Indesign, iview media Pro, Rapidweaver, to name but a few.
I have noticed some issues, such a computer running slow, taking its time to do very simple operations. I also have Adobe software misbehaving and crashing, especially Bridge and Photoshop that often comes up saying "could not complete request because of a program error"
I thought that I would completely wipe the drive and start again, but this a lengthly process - especially when it comes to preferences, settings, mailboxes, etc etc.
The question is should I archive and install, or reinstall or indeed try anything else first?
Thanks in Advance..... Mark

There are some simple troubleshooting you can take.
Create a new User go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" (make it an admin acct) and test the apps in this new account, if they work the problem is isolated to your User and not systemwide.
If the issue is limited to your user account try starting up Safe Mode (It will take more time to startup in Safe Mode because it runs a directory check.)
If your apps functions correctly that way, go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. Boot normally and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving ~(yourHome)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.
If the issue is systemwide then, you may be able to repair this with the 10.5.6 Combo Update This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before.
Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.

I seem to have problems using AdjustHSV node for color replace/adjustment

I have been using shake for some color adjustment on some high res (16bit) tif files. I have a simple network with the input node. I branch to an AdjustHSV node and then feed the original, the AdjustHSV and a roto shape into a KeyMix node. When I view the output of the KeyMix node and make adjustments to the AdjustHSV node sometimes it works, sometimes not. I am using a P2 proxy with update set to always. It is frustrating as I can't seem to make rhyme or reason to why it works interactive sometimes and other times it just seems to ignore my inputs. What I am doing is I view the output. I double click on the replace color on the HSV node to bring up the color picker and I am slowly moving the replace color in the color wheel to fine tune my color replace.

Don't double-click. You're selecting the swatch and then deselecting it!
Click once. When the swatch is selected, you'll see a yellow border around it.

I have problems downloading images they show partially downloaded however when i go into edit the image shows up fine

I'm having issues with downloading images via iPhoto they show partially downloaded however when i go to edit the photo they readjust to a full image is there away to repair this issue ?

Downloading from where?
they show partially downloaded
Where do you see this? What does it look like? Can you post a screenshot of what you're seeing?
The standard fix suggestion is this:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

Problem with Export - Image Sizing

Hello, I'm running LR3 on a relatively new iMac. I am using LR to edit RAW photos from my Nikon D700 and one of the things I do is export to .jpg to put some photos on my website. To do this, each photo must be the same width and height, or it causes issues with the website.
For awhile, I was exporting images at dimensions of 960x636 with no issues. All of a sudden, when I use the export feature, and put in the Image Sizing section the 960x636 resolution, the exported file is at a resolution of 956x636 and therefore is not the same size as previously exported photos. I've tried changing some of the settings in the Image Sizing section (check/uncheck Don't Enlarge, Dimensions vs. Width & Height, etc.) and nothing seems to work. Any advice why LR3 is overriding my image size settings would be greatly appreciated.

When you specify the width and height on export, you are specifying a "box" that Lightroom will fit the image into. It will do the best it can, but if your cropped image doesn't have the same aspect ratio as the "box", then one dimension will be short. As an example, if you had cropped your picture into a square, how could Lightroom possibly completely fill a rectangle with it?
You need to crop your images to the same ratio as the 956 : 636 that you're specifying on Export.
