Photos v. 8.0 "Unknown Error" when exporting

When trying to export certain images from Photos 8.0, I am getting an "Unknown error" message. Oddly, this only seems to happen with black-and-white photos. I'm on Ventura 13.1.

Any suggestions?


MacBook Air 13″, macOS 13.1

Hey there SirLordEd,


We understand you're having trouble exporting photos on your MacBook Air. We'd be happy to provide information to help you address this.


Check to see if you experience this same behavior while in safe mode:

If the issue continues while in safe mode, attempt exporting in another user account to narrow down if anything installed may be causing the issue: Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac - Apple Support


Let us know the results.

Kind regards.
