    Hi Jamie, does this help?

    Try from the library or develop tabs

    We specifically would need to know the error messages from the plugin, too - okay? Thanks!

    Jamie - As much as I love Lightroom, I would strongly recommend using something OTHER than Lightroom to upload. The uploaders work MOST of the time, but in my experience are just too unreliable.

    Check out Star*Explorer, it works very very well. www.starexplorer.com

    I don't work for Star*Explorer or make any money off them. I'm just really happy with the product.

    I think you can at least ask Nikolai, who made the software, here.
