Costco have recently implemented a number of changes on their back-end, which made the plug-in incompatible. I am currently working on an update. I have a new version which solves the issue with user authentication, I am currently e-mailing it out on a by-request basis. I expect it may have some related problems, however it restores the ability to authenticate and export photos.
A new update should be available this weekend, so stay tuned.

Please enable Format:Original for this plug-in. I sometimes need to upload JPEGs that are ready to upload (they are coming from InDesign and are proper size already) and they need/should not be re-compressed as JPEGs.

Thank you!
Thomas

Bill,
First, install the ICC profile on your computer, you’ll find the instructions here: http://www.drycreekphoto.com/Learn/profile_install.htm
Next, launch Lightroom, open the export dialog and scroll down to the File Settings section, then click the Color Space box. Choose Other… from the drop-down list (at this point you can probably see only sRGB, AdobeRGB and ProPhoto RGB options there). The Choose Profiles dialog comes up. Here you can select additional color profiles to appear in the Custom Profile popup. Your Costco profile should be there. Select the check box next to it, then click OK to close the dialog.
Now click the Color Space box again and select the added Costco profile. Once you are done configuring your export options, click Add under the Preset list, so your customized export settings are saved as a User Preset. Next time you export photos to Costco you won’t need to customize the settings, simply choose your Costco preset from the list.
Hope this helps.

Vlad,
My monitor is now color profiled. I have located the ICC Printer Profile for the Costco I use and have downloaded it. Can I use the ICC Printer Profile in your plug-in to make sure the prints I receive are color correct? If so How do I do this

Please send me a debug log as described in the troubleshooting section so I can see what could cause the issue.

Vlad,
I’m having trouble connecting to Costco Photo, I get error code 500 cannot connect each time I try. I downloaded the update to my MAC but can’t seem to figure out how to get that download into my plug-in. Which file do I select to complete the download?
