On Sight Photographic Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Hi, All my images in every batch I have tried to upload to live news this year have failed to upload due to 'process failed.' Before then, I had no such problem. I am unaware of making any changes to my workflow. Any ideas what the problem is? best wishes, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Woods Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Probably an upload issue, nothing to do with you. Lately uploading to Alamy has been incredibly slow, maybe they are having glitches with their equipment. You could contact them and ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiskerke Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Just to be sure, check this: - A common fail is to save the jpeg other than Baseline "Standard" in Photoshop. Photoshop remembers its last setting in this dialog box. Even if you never use a different setting yourself, it can check a different box when you have saved a jpeg that previously had been saved as Baseline optimized or Progressive. wim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Robinson Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 That's only happened to me once or twice, but the last time was on Thursday - and I was sitting next to another photographer who uploaded at the same time and her pics didn't appear either. When uploading live news I NEARLY always wait until the images appear before leaving the cafe or wherever and going out to take more photos. This time I didn't, and didn't find the problem until I was on the way home. Uploading has been very slow recently and, it seems, a bit less than reliable. I sent a submission via FTP on Friday. Hours later it hadn't appeared, so I sent it again and, of course, now everything is there twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An upload can appear quickly in the live news feed, other times I've given up waiting, although AIM shows them available for sale. Can be frustrating. I think I've been lucky recently, no Alamy related issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
