Help us with some more information:


  • What OS do are you using? See under the Apple in upper left>About This Mac
  • Do you use iCloud to synchronize your Photos?
  • If so, do you have "Optimize Storage" checked?
  • If so, do you see these pictures in iCloud.com?
  • How are you exporting pictures? Do you use File>Export>Export nn Photos? or what?
  • These pictures that won't export -- do they look good when you use the Edit View? Not blurry?
  • Have you tried restarting your computer?


  • You should try re-starting your computer in Safe Mode. The process is different for different computers, so see this:
