Publish Collections created prior to Lightroom 3.4 designed to publish to a Hard Drive could fail to work properly in Lightroom 3.5.

The incorrect Aspect Ratio was displayed when Crop settings were Copy/Pasted or applied via Previous button (Mac Only).
-
In rare situations, Lightroom 3.4 and 3.5 would not be able to read certain JPEG files properly.
-
Files with invalid date metadata could fail to import properly.

Editing a crop that had previously been copied from another file would fail to retain the copied aspect ratio.
Finally, Camera Raw 6.6 Release Candidate corrects the following:
