My lightroom 5.5 trial won't export jpegs

I wonder if anyone is having the same problem I'm experiencing. I'm trying to export photos to a desktop folder as jpegs in readiness for a trip to the printers but LR won't export. It says that it can't find the folder even though it exists. Is it me? How do I do it without having to burn straight to DVD?
This is the message I get. I have tried getting LR to place the image in a subfolder and that gets the same error message. Any ideas?

Hal
That's wonderful and worked a treat... thank you so much. It was driving me crazy. Do you happen to know why some of the photos have a 'greyed-out' export option against them? The 'burn full sized JPEGs' is there as is 'export as DNG' and the 'hard drive email' option but the plain Export option isn't available. Any ideas on that. Everything else seems to be working perfectly. Thank you for the help so far. It was very much appreciated

Final Cut Pro Trial won't let me export

So I got the Final Cut pro Trial about 2 weeks ago and I was able to export 3 videos just fine. Now all of a sudden I just finished my 4th video, added commentary and everything else and it won't export. I don't see anything wrong with the project except for some reason the cross dissolve transitions won't render. Nothing is going on in the background, I've tried closing out the program, restarting my computer, nothing helps. I can export any other projections too. For some reason I click file, share, master file and nothing happens. I'm able to click it, but once I click it, nothing happen, where as before the export settings pop up. I always tried using the export option on the right, and the same thing happens. I checked and all the files are working fine, so it's not like any clips are missing. Can anyone help? Thanks

Could you post a screen shot of the project libary and the toolbar?
Reinstalling the app doesn't effect the events or projects. Sounds like some weird permissions problem.

Lightroom 3 won't export to hard drives

Lightroom 3 stopped being able to export images to any hard drive. Only Desktop and C:\Users\ are offered as export options. I can import from any hard drive but can not export to any of them. Installed version 3.4 RC but problem still exists. Windows 7 32 bit system.

Click on the small triangle to the right of "Desktop". A drop-down menu will appear. Select "Specific Folder". You should then be able to navigate to wherever you want your exported photos to be.

PS: When you choose "Specific Folder" a new button called "Choose" will appear just below the triangle. Use it to navigate.

Lightroom 4 won't export all my files and doesn't notify which ones it didn't

I have a large library and one day i wanted to make sure that none of the files were corupt so I thought of an idea to export my entire library to see if i get a notification if any of my files didn't export. I could then check on those files to see whats wrong. But trying to export that many images caused lightroom to crash so I exported by year instead. Some years were fine, but others like 2011 for example, out of 13906 images, only 9824 exported. I would be ok with that if lightroom notified me which images didn't export. Normaly, when i try to export images that are ofline, lightroom will tell me which ones didn't export and say that they can't be found. How am i supposed to find those 4000 images that didnt export if i don't know what there file names are? I tried exporting the previews as a catalog and all 13906 exported fine. I updated my dng previews and I even genereated new standard sized previews as well. I also ckecked for missing images under Library/Find Missing Photos, and there were none missing. Here are the type of files i was trying to export: DNG: 13017, jpeg: 9, PSD: 61, TIFF: 819. None were videos.
Please Help!

Thanks for your reply. I don't necesarily think I have corrupt files, but i want o make sure i don't so that when i do a back up, the corupt file doesn't replace the good ones on my backup drive. I have over 100,000 images in my library and there is absolutely no way that i am going to scroll through all of those to look for an exclamation point. I wish lightroom could scan my whole library for any questionalable files.
I have tried to export known corrupt files where I could see an exclamation point or a large purples band, or both, and they don't export. Thats why i wanted to export my whole library to see if i can find any of those. But lightroom notifies me when they cant export. I don't know why it doenst say anyting now. Im glad you mentioned about the stacking, i didn't know about that, however, i don't used stacking, so that is not the issue. There might be 10 or 20 that i accidentally stacked, but not 4000.

Help!! How do you retrieve photos from Lightroom after the trial ends??

Hi, I was trialing the latest version of Lightroom and the trial period expired.. I have never used Adobe products before and I didn't realise I wouldn't be able to retrieve the photos after the trial ended! The photos are needed for an assignment for Uni that is due tomorrow!!
Is there ANY way to get the photos back??? Thank you!
Francesca

As Dorin says, your pictures are still there. Lightroom never modifies your images, so they're still there in whatever format you imported them. If you don't have use of Lightroom, you don't have access to the changes you've made to your images in Lightroom unless, while you still have use of Lightroom:
You export the images (to TIF or JPEG)
In Edit menu, catalog settings, metadata tab, you check "Automatically write changes into XMP", in which case the changes are written into the XMP sidecar files, which can be read by ACR in Photoshop (or Elements, I think).
To get yourself out of a fix, as c.frans says, download the LR4.1 RC2 version. This requires no serial number but it will time out in June, I think so remember to do one of the two options I mentioned above before then.

Lightroom 4.1 exported JPEG files are not recognized by Apple Preview App

I just started using Lightroom 4.1 Trial version (coming from Aperture). I exported JPEG versions of some images using an ICC profile. On my iMac running Lion 10.7.5 the pictures do not show a thumbnail, the file on the desktop just shows "JPEG". I could not open the file with the Preview App, but I am able to open it with DPP (Canon software)? Also the file shows that it has 0 x 0 dimentions when I click Get Info even though it is about 25 Megs in size?
The message I get is
"The file “Edit-739820120223Canon EOS 7D.jpg” could not be opened.
It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize."
Does anyone know why this is hapening?
Is it a know issue between Adobe and Apple?
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks for help in advance.

25MB is quite a large filesize for a JPG, and this might be either quite a lot of pixels saved at a very "high" quality (not very much compressed), or it may be an extremely large number of pixels saved with medium compression.
While the technical spec of the JPG format imposes an absolute limit on maximum width and height pixel dimensions, some software employs a lower limit above which it considers the file to be invalid. Different programs, different limits, sometimes.
I have encountered this (for example) with pano stitched images using the full resolution of a large number of component shots - where JPG output could not be made, or if made, could not even be viewed as a whole by my standard image viewer (though TIFF was still OK even at still larger sizes).
If Lightroom has been set to a large printed size AND to a high ppi resolution, it is easy to get into very high numbers and very large output files. One should IMO at least question the utility and benefit of using very high ratios of upsampling from a standard digital photo - which may happen in some cases as a result of using the same output settings regardless, when spreading the same data across both small and large scales. If the file that was imported into LR really does provide an unusually high number of pixels expressing lots of detail, then that will better deserve such a capacious output file. Otherwise, each part of the file may merely show a very highly detailed representation, of a very blurry nothing-much-in-particular.
If the JPG has exceeded the viewer's size limits, a reported width and height of 0 may represent an error message, in effect - not actual reality.

I'm running Lightroom 4.0 (trial) but every few launches, it forgets all my presets...

I'm running Lightroom 4.0 (trial) but every few launches, it forgets all my presets (develop/export/...) and shows me the initial tutorial again. How can I fix this?

Try this:
Check if in Preferences / Presets tab the box <Store presets with catalog> is checked. If it is your presets are not stored in the default location, where Lr looks for presets but next to the catalog.
Uncheck the box.

Podcast won't export from Garageband to iWeb

Hi all
Help appreciated with this. I do a two hour music podcast (www.whatyouwantradio.com also available at http://soundcloud.com/whatyouwant-radio) which is created in Garageband and then exported to iWeb for uploading to my website. I've been running this, with few problems, since April 2009.
Recently the garageband podcast won't export to iWeb. It's random, and I seem to have been able to bypass it by changing the filename slightly, or adjusting the quality at which it is exported (I like to export at 320mps for best quality - big files but no complaints from the 100 or so listeners. Could be more - who knows as I can't get stats from iTunes. But I digress). However, the most recent podcast, which is already available on Soundcloud, just won't export. It goes through the motions (mixdown etc.) but nothing appears on iWeb on the other side. No error message, nothing. I know that memory has also been an issue in the past but right now there is plenty to spare (5.37GB at last glance).
I'd really be grateful for some help on this, I'm at a bit of a loss - no error message, no clue. As I say, this podcast has been going for nearly three years and it's only recently I've had this problem.
Cheers,
Stuart

Just a further note on this. I tried a couple more times yesterday to export the file. Starting out with over 5GB of memory, by the time I had tried twice this had gone down by a couple of GB. Still no export. This morning I noticed some new files in the trash that were from around the time of the failed exporting:
Note sure if you can see that, but I'm guessing the files are something to do with the failed export? Does anyone have any thoughts? Either way, this problem is still annoying the **** out of me...

Exporting Jpegs from Lightroom - DPI question

When I export Jpegs from Lightroom, I set the dpi to 300 pixels per inch. I do not specify a max width or height. When I view these files in Adobe Bridge (CS2 or CS3) the file info says 300dpi. However, when I open the files in Photoshop and select image size, It says 72dpi and has the document size set to very large. I realize that I can enter 300 dpi and uncheck the resample box, I am just confused as to why this is happening.
My concern is, that I upload my images directly to my lab after exporting from Lightroom. Will this cause problems?
Thanks in advance!
David

the image resolution is a combination of the two parameters you mention: size and dpi. a very large size at 72 dpi is equivalent to a small size (like 3x5) at very high dpi. for printing you want at least 240 dpi at the largest size that allows you to keep that resolution. for screen presentations or your web site you want jut 72 dpi. 72 dpi and 2x3 inches will require a very small file size.
I suggest you to export images at TIFF and not JPEG as that will allow you to preserve the image quality when doing editing in PS.
In my case I export TIFF for PS (when I need PS editing) and 72 dpi JPEG for my web site (that way if somebody downloads my image illegally thy get a poor resolution copy). But since LR works very well for me 90% of the images re just kept in raw mode and I print from LR.

OMF won't export out of final cut pro.

Exporting a 93min 1920x1080 HD timeline to OMF

Have deadline. Didn't see it on any forum. Help!! Thanks!!

Seems like a weird thing to not be able to do since it's called final cut PRO...
Bagging on Final Cut Pro for OMF? HA! OMF has been around LONG BEFORE FCP was introduced. It isn't an FCP issue...OMF technology is VERY old. Over 20 years I believe. I used it on Avid...and it always had a 20GB limit.
You cannot deliver 1 track via OMF. You can ask the audio person. I know that Avid now allows you to export an AAF...but FCP doesn't do AAF. For embedded audio I think that OMF is the only way. SO you have to work within the limitations of that format.

New Quicktime 7.6.6 (1671) won't export WAV files

HELP! - New Quicktime 7.6.6 (1671) won't export WAV files. I just did the automatic upgrade to the new version of Quicktime and now I can't export WAV files from a CAF file. The original .CAF file plays perfectly but when I attempt to export it the exported file is corrupted and won't play. I have another computer with the previous version of Quicktime and it exports the same file flawlessly. Anyone know what's going on with the new version? THANKS!

+Error writing to the file: C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunesMiniPlayer.Resources\nb.lproj\iTunesMiniPlayerLocalized.dll. Verify that you have access to that directory.+
More often than not, that sort of message indicates file damage rather than a privileges issue on the file.
If you've got Windows XP, try doing a chkdsk over your C drive, as per:
How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
If you've got Vista, try the following procedure. Go "Start > Computer". Right-click on "Local Disk C:" and select "properties". Click the "Tools" tab. Click the "Check now" button in the "Error correction" section.
Do the disk checks find/repair any damage? If so, does an install go through properly afterwards?

FCP won't export M2V

I am running FCP Studio and trying to export an m2v. I recently upgraded my G5 and basically put my old hard drives right into the new G5 box. Since I did that, FCP asked for a serial number again, and I entered it. OK. Now I am trying to export the Mpeg2 and it says it can't export until DVD studio Pro is serialized - but then I run DVD studio pro and it IS serialized and registered. Restart did not fix it. FCP just can't seem to tell that DVD studio pro is already serialized and won't export. Should I trash my preferences? FCP or DVD studio pro or both? Any suggestions?

FYI....
Trying to uninstall DVD Pro and then re-installing it will not work! I ran through this problem when I upgraded to FCP Studio. The issue lies between DVD Pro and QT7, it is a bug that apple is currently trying to resolve.
I spent numerous hours on the phone with apple to get this issue resolved. The best work around at the moment is going through Compressor and making a M2V. Compressor will retain your chapter markers from FCP no worries.
The only issue is time, it takes longer using compressor but the quality is 100x better because you have more control of the VBP.
Good Luck
