Lightroom export issue

Hello...
I usually export my photos to jpgs into a subfolder under the original folder where the raws are.
To do this, I choose "Same folder as original photo", "Put in subfolder" and "Add to this catalog".
It always worked fine, but today I discovered that Lightroom is creating two copies of the jpg;
one inside the subfolder, as I want it, and one besides the raw file, in the original folder.
The funny thing is that when I go to see the original folder which contains the raw files from Windows,
the unwanted "copy" is not there. It's just in the catalog.
And, even worse, when I erase one of the two jpgs from Lightroom (no matter which one), the other one is erased too.
I'm using Lightroom 5.6 on Windows 8.1.
Thank you

In the Library menu, do you have "show photos in subfolders" checked? If you do, then those JPEG images in the subfolder will display alongside the raw files.

  • Lightroom Exporting Issue

    Hi everyone, sorry if this is repetitive; I hadn't seen it posted.
    I'm a new Lightroom user and am having trouble exporting the photos that I've made my edits/adjustments to.  I follow the steps as outlined in various tutorials on exporting, but after Lightroom indicates that the export was completed, the file that I exported is nowhere to be found in Explorer; even if I have Lightroom open Explorer after the export, the image is not there.  I'm exporting them as JPEG files, if that matters.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you!

    If you still encounter this problem (LR won't start), you have to delete your preferences file and then start LR by double-clicking the catalog file (the *.lrcat file). You can find the location and name of the LR preferences file here.

  • Exporting ISSUES! Help

    I am a relatively new user to lightroom.  I haven't had any exporting issues until today.  I am attempting to export a photo/photos to a specific folder with a custom name.  When I do this it exports the WHOLE library and NOT the edited photo.  What am I doing wrong??

    Lightroom usually exports all images that are highlighted. If you only want to export one image then make sure it is the only image that is highlighted.

  • Lightroom Export  Presets Missing!

    I have tried the restore presets under preferences and doing a repair as an installation option but neither restored Lightrooms presets. I am using V2.6.  Any ideas on how I get the Lightroom export presets?

    I assume that "OP" is slang for "other person."
    I am experiencing two problems:
    1.  Firstly I am missing presets
      a.  By presets I mean
                    a. keyword presets,
                    b. filter presets, and
                    c. custom develop presets.
      b.  "Just missing presets"  constitutes a great deal of effort for me, and it should be for you, since it's an issue that has been raised since to LR 2 and has been raise in CS4 as well.
    2.  I've also lost all my watermarks and am unable to recreate watermarks that actually appear on export files.
    For the record I am using LR 3.2 64 bit beta with Windows 7 64 bit
    I've been using them for months.
    This problem occured yesterday for the first time.
    I have backedup, as recommended by LR, several times.
    Restores have not helped.
    There have not been any recent system updates.
    The only plug-in I use is the export to zenfolio.
    The watermark problem is not related to the zenfolio plug-in, I have the same issue exporting to hard disk without the plug-in.
    The watermark editor does not show the choosen graphic as it last time I checkede (several days ago.)
    I don't understand why keysets are not part of the backup...
    Are they not part of the catelog?
    Feel free to ask me all the questions you want, but please help me resolve this issue.

  • How to remove watermarks from images which have been inadvertently applied via the Lightroom Export function? [was: Help!]

    I put a watermark on a photo in Lightroom 5  and exported it to a file. I then had another group of images which I exported and they all had the watermark on them and I can't get rid of the watermark

    Export the photos again, but in the Lightroom Export dialog box, remove the check next to Watermark

  • Lightroom Export Action and Automator

    Hi. Have an interesting anamoly that I hope someone an explain to me. I am trying to leverage Adobe Lightroom's export preset post-processing option to help in importing photos into iPhoto (where I can make easy use of the .mac photocasts). I created an Automator workflow comprised of the following actions: 1) Get Specified Finder items (with the export folder from Lightroom selected) 2) Get Folder Contents 3) Import Photos into iPhoto (with the delete source option selected).
    I placed the Automator app, named "Import to iPhoto" into the Lightroom "Export Actions" folder and selected it in the post-processing drop down in my export preset. When exporting from this preset, the file(s) are exported as expected, however, for some reason the Automator action imports duplicate files into iPhoto for each photo exported. If the photos are exported separately without the post-processing export action, and then the Automator action is run manually, there are no duplicate files imported. Does anybody have any ideas what might be occuring here?

  • Bizzare export issue

    Here is a very weird export issue. Windows XP.
    Project is set at h264 1920x1080 mono audio 29.97 fps
    I have 30 shots that make up the sequence. Each shot is exactly 90 frames. I exported each sequence at h264 1920x1080 with one channel of audio. The first shot exports just fine and is 5 MB. The second shot exports at 10 MB. The third is 15 MB, the tenth shot is 50MB. But the picture is still 90 frames for each shot. BUT, when I export without audio each exported file is just 5 MB. If I look at the properties of each clip the duration of the video and audio is just 90 frames. If I open one of these clips in QuickTime Pro and re-export it as source then the files size goes back to 5 MB; same video, same audio yet with the correct file size.
    Anyone seen this before?
    Is there a setting that could be incorrect?

    Weird, man. Not sure what might cause that.

  • Lightroom Export Color Shift

    Exported JPEGs from Lightroom have a significant color shift from how they appear inside LR and PS3, which is a distinct magenta shift and oversaturation.
    I have read a number of related posts here and elsewhere that explain the importance of setting up color management correctly in Windows, LR and PS3. I have done my best to follow all this advice and still cannot export usable JPEGs from Lightroom. I am using a Spyder 3 and have carefully profiled my Dell 2408WFP monitor. I am processing RAW images from a Canon 30D into sRGB JPEGs for web viewing, and have set up LR to export sRGB while PS3 is set to the sRGB working space.
    I have also read that Internet Explorer and other color-unmanaged applications will display images differently. I understand this, but then it seems to me that every image I view inside Windows Picture Viewer or Internet Explorer on this computer would have the same oversaturation and magenta shift that my Lightroom exports do, but this is not the case. Also, my Lightroom-exported JPEGs have an equivalent magenta-tinted and oversaturated appearance on other computers I use, not just my image-editing computer.
    I have set up a web page with example images, screen grabs and system technical information, located here: http://www.dougvetter.com/lightroom
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    >What can I do to get predictable color output that looks good outside a color managed environment? All the web content I look at on this exact same system looks just fine in my browser.
    The only thing you can do is to calibrate your screen and export to sRGB jpegs.
    On average the images will look the same, however very few will look identical simply because there is a lot of variation among screens. The sRGB standard gives you the biggest probability of getting it right. Unfortunately with the current upsurge in people buying laptops, which have in general a far smaller gamut than sRGB (the purple blue problem is caused by bad laptop screens), sRGB is starting to deviate from the average because the average is shifting. At the same time desktop LCDs are giving greater and greater gamut as your DELL display shows. sRGB was designed to represent an average CRT screen. So the crappy quality of laptop LCDs and the refusal of MS to finally live up to their promise of color management in IE is really hurting our chances of getting the right color in front of people.
    What we really need is omnipresent color management and some awareness of computers of their monitor's profiles without having to calibrate, similar to printing profiles being delivered by printer manufacturers. They might not be perfect, but they will be good enough. Lacking that, we can really only try to calibrate our screens and use sRGB for web images.

  • Crystal JRC PDF Export Issue

    We are experiencing a PDF export issue with Crystal JRC version 12.2.202.  The PDF report shows 1 of 3 pages but ONLY the first page is generated.  When this occurs, ALL other users that are exporting to PDF experience the same issue with any multiple page report.  I can't find any errors in the log that would indicate what the problem is.  To resolve the issue, I have to recycle the WebLogic application server that hosts  the JRC, which would indicate something gets "locked" in memory and gets cleared when the app server is bounced.
    Any ideas on how to resolve this ?

    Hi Ted,
    Thanks for the response!
    Though, the mentioned Sun JVM Bug explains the root-cause, the Bug status also state that it is not fixed yet.
    Also, we are reluctant to change the JVM Option to -Xint due to unknown impacts on JVM optimizations.
    Is there a patch released for CrystalReports to deal with this behavior? We are using CRJ runtime 11.5.7.620 and seeking for a patch on this version.
    Thanks.

  • PP CS5.5 FLV To MP4 Export Issues / Problems

    I just upgraded from Production Premium CS5 to CS5.5. I do a fair amount of converting/exporting of imported FLV files (downloaded from internet news sites) to H.264/AAC w/ MP4 wrappers using Premiere Pro (PP) and Adobe Media Encoder (AME). My equipment is a 1+ yr. old HP Win 7 Pro w/ an Intel i970 Quadcore, 12 Gb RAM and MSI nVidia GTX 470 GPU. I have never experienced any queue or export issues w/ CS5 (at least that I noticed), but I am experiencing noticeably degraded queue export and direct export problems with these files in CS5.5.
    Description: (1) The queue export times for the exact same imported FLV clip(s) using the exact same sequence settings and H.264/MP4 export settings are noticeably slower in CS5.5 (sometimes 2x, depending on the export settings, e.g. using maximum render quality) than in CS5; (2) My MSI Afterburner GPU monitoring software indicates 5-10% GPU usage during queue/export in CS5, while indicating 0% GPU usage (flatline) in CS5.5; and (3) When I attempt to direct export these files using CS5.5 I get the following error message: "The source and output audio channels are not compatible or a conversion does not exist."
    I suspect that it may have something to do with "conforming" anomalies when the FLV file is imported into PP, but I would put that squarely in the category of rank speculation on my part.
    Has anyone experienced the same or similar problems or have any insight into what may be the problem(s)? Of course, thanks for any help/insight you can provide.
    Jim

    What do you mean by a better routine?
    A better compression routine than H.264.
    Is the quality better than H.264?
    Yes.
    Does this use an MOV wrapper?
    Yes.
    Also, would it import correctly into PPro?
    Yes.
    we would import files into PPro exported out of FCP and would get a red pixelated glitch during preview and export. Does this codec solve this problem as well if it is an MOV wrapper?
    I don't know anything about FCP.
    Sorry for all the questions, just want to get things right before diving into a new codec.
    It's harmless, and free.
    Download it and run some tests.

  • Simple flash export issue

    hello
    I'm trying to export a flash video using Adobe media encoder from Premier Pro, but when I do I get this error " there are no clips to build".
    I have another file that I am able to export and it does not have this problem.
    They are Windows Media files and play in Premier fine. I am using Premier Pro CS3.
    Lastly, I'm not a video expert but I really need to get these up on the web for work, there is a lot of pressure and I need to get it done.
    Regards,
    Tom

  • Lightroom export order

    I am exporting a set of wedding pictures to a file.  In Lightroom I have moved a number of pictures around so that they are in chronological order.  When I export the pictures end up in their original order. I guess they are in numerial sequence. Any suggestion in preventing LR5 from resequencing the pictures?

    Not sure how to do this ... an additional extension...
    You need to make the sequence number the prefix, so files are named:
    001 my first file.x
    002 my seond file.y
    etc.
    Lightroom exports in order (first one first, second one second, and last one last), but the device you're using to view them (e.g. OS) is displaying via alphabetical order, or can.
    So the prefix assures alphabetic order is same as exported order, and hence same as order in Lightroom.
    Try this:

  • Exporting issues after 4.2 upgrade

    Has anyone else experienced exporting issues after installing the 4.2 upgrade? It used to be a breeze but now I keep getting the message that a destination folder has not been specified even though I've done that. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

    Are you using an Export preset, or setting the Export up manually each time? 

  • Reporting Export Issue from Taleo

    Can anyone help?  We have a work around for the Exporting Issues into Excel 2010 regarding figures and dates only reading as text, however, a new issue has arisen.   In one field we have Aggregated Agencies assigned to any particular Job Code.   In the legacy reports, every agency name exported into one cell in Excel, now they export into individual rows, this causes a report to be too long and there is no way to amalgamate them into one cell.    Has anyone found a workaround for this?

    is there someway that it was reformatted by the Iomega drive being daisy chained to it?
    No. That is not possible -anyway, reformatting erases everything on a drive.
    You would have noticed that first.
    You can download the [NTFS-3G driver|http://macntfs-3g.blogspot.com> which will let you read, write and even reformat the clients drive as NTFS on the Mac. All reasonably modern Windows PCs work with this disc format and you won't run into the file size limitations associated with FAT formatted drives.

  • Using 128bit key Blowfish and any export issues

    Hi,
    I want to use blowfish (symmetric key algorithm) in my product and which will be shipped outside US. Reading Sun's documentation I am bit confused and I am not sure if the jce package is going to be available outside the US.
    Has anyone used the default available symmetric key algorithms in the JCE package (javax.crypto.*) and faced any export control issues ?
    Please let me know.
    Thanks
    RT
    Here is a sample code
    String ks = "123456789123456";
    kb = ks.getBytes();
    SecretKeySpec key = new SecretKeySpec(kb,"blowfish");
    Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("blowfish");
    // Initialisation of cipher object for Encryption.
    cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, key);

    1. the issue is rather an import issue for some countries, than an export issue for US as far as you use jre>=1.4 .
    you can read the
    'Downloading the "Unlimited Strength" Jurisdiction Policy Files'
    section of
    http://java.sun.com/products/jce/javase.html
    2. The restricted (defualt) shipped version already covers Blowfish if you mind that.
    3. I use Blowfish with restricted (default) version of JCE in applications deployed in europe and have not heard of customer complaining sofar: they are supposed to use webstart or jre1.5.
