Jun 3, 2013 at 14:48 comment added Marc Hoyois @David: It should be easy to prove that what you get by applying the reflector to the limit in the ambient category is the limit in the subcategory.

Jun 3, 2013 at 11:31 comment added David Carchedi @Dylan: The proposition says something much simpler: left adjoints preserves colimits and right adjoints preserve limits. I need to knwo that limits exist before I can show they are preserved.
Jun 3, 2013 at 7:54 comment added Dylan Wilson Why doesn't this follow from HTT 5.2.3.5?
Jul 17, 2012 at 18:11 comment added Mike Shulman No, Buschi is correct. The inclusion functor of a reflective subcategory is a right adjoint, and hence preserves all limits; it's colimits in the reflective subcategory that you have to apply the reflector to compute. Torsion abelian groups are not a reflective subcategory of abelian groups (what would the reflection of $\mathbb{Z}$ be?).
Jul 17, 2012 at 12:13 comment added Martin Brandenburg @Buschi: This is not true. You need the reflector. Look, for example, at the category of torsion abelian groups within the category of abelian groups. Besides, David asks about higher categories.
Jul 17, 2012 at 11:20 comment added David Carchedi So, what you are saying is that applying the reflector is redundant?
Jul 17, 2012 at 11:17 comment added Buschi Sergio for reflexive (full, replete) subcatgories $\iota: \mathcal{A}\subset\mathcal{C}$ the limits in $A$ are calculate as the limits on the ground category $\mathcal{C}$ (without applyng reflector), infact the inclusion $\iota: \mathcal{A}\subset\mathcal{C}$ create limits (large limits too). WHat do you said is valid for colimits.
