Lightroom won't export files

I'm not quite sure what I did to upset LR, but at the moment no matter what I try it won't export files.

I updated to 1.4.1 and no change. I deleted and re-imported the files and no change. I ran disk utility, no change. Any clues?

Jeremy,

We probably need a bit more information to maybe give you some clues for a possible solution.

How far into the Export procedure does Lightroom allow you to go? Can you get past the initial Export window that appears?

Have you tried other Export options in the File Menu - Export with Preset, or Export as Catalogue to see whether these are operational?

Another way to see if the program will get photos out of it may be to try using "Edit in another program" (eg Photoshop, Noise Ninja) in the Photo Menu.

Your problem sounds mysterious, hope you can get it solved.

In the end I had to remove Lightroom entirely from my hard drive and reinstall. It's working fine now. The technical support guy said I might have had something to do with Google Earth? Thank you.

Glad to hear it's fixed Jeremy. Google Earth is great to explore but if it could interfere with Lightroom I'm going to steer well clear.
