Can I run lightroom 3 off a 32 bit windows xp?

If so how???, im having problems with it being very slow, any help greatly appreciated
Andrea

IMO the specs of your PC are very much on the low side for LR3:
your AMD Sempron 1.6GHz is a single-core CPU which AMD advertises as 'Affordable performance for everyday computing' - sorry but LR3 is not everyday computing. You would definitely benefit from a faster, multi-core CPU.
2GB RAM - that's the minimum system requirement for LR3 (only for the application), add to that the RAM the OS uses and you will end up with at least 3GB. The OS will start to swap when it runs out of physical memory - and with your total 2GB of RAM that will start to happen quite soon when you use LR3.
..but I need it for my work,so what can I do????!!!!
if you need LR3 professionaly then I'm sorry to say but you will need a faster PC...I would go for a 64-bit Windows 7-PC with dual- or quad-core CPU and 6GB RAM

  • Can you run Lightroom off an external hardrive?

    I need to get a new laptop and am considering buying a HP Stream 14. It has only got 32GB of storage on it offline so relies on cloud storage mainly. I will have an external hardrive too though.
    Will I be able to run Lightroom on this? I don't mind if all my files are up in the sky but I don't want to get this if I won't be able to continue to use Lightroom to process photos.

    My apologies, I'll try and explain myself a bit better.
    My main question is; is there anyway for me to get and use Lightroom on the HP Stream if it only has 32GB of storage on it (let's say I had nothing else on it so the full 32GB is available for Lightoom if necessary). I can put the photos and catalogue on the external harddrive no problem but it's the programme itself and running it that I am worried about. I'm not sure if an SSD is compatible with the HP Stream (don't honestly know what it is, actually!) so maybe give me an answer if I a) couldn't use an SSD and b) could.
    I'd really like this laptop but there isn't much point in me getting it if I can't use Lightroom on it. But in order to do so I don't mind buying some extra storage devices or storing photos or the catalogue wherever necessary.
    Here's the specs for the HP Stream in case they are of any use;
    Windows 8.1 64
    AMD Quad-Core A4 micro-6400T
    35.6 cm (14") diagonal HD BrightView display
    2GB DDR 3 Memory and 32GB eMMC storage
    Ultra thin, fanless design perfect for computing on the go
    And here's the link to HP's site on it;

  • Can not run Snow Leopard in 64 bit

    Hi there,
    I recently bought the Snow Leopard OS for my iMac 2007/2008 model.
    Here are the specks on my iMac:
    Model Name: iMac
    Model Identifier: iMac7,1
    Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
    Processor Speed: 2,4 GHz
    Number Of Processors: 1
    Total Number Of Cores: 2
    L2 Cache: 4 MB
    Memory: 4 GB
    Bus Speed: 800 MHz
    Boot ROM Version: IM71.007A.B03
    SMC Version (system): 1.20f4
    My question is, how is it that I can not run Snow Leopard in 64 bit – it is an Core2Duo which to my understanding is also an 64 bit processor.
    To add to my confusion I’m running the Windows 7 64 bit version on the same iMac via VMware-fusion.
    Had some help on this issue before, where this mac-person found an small program on the internet that is suppose to analyse and change some settings so it runs 64 bit - but my model was not supported by some odd reason.
    Is here anyone that can reply on my question??
    Thanks
    Arni

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    I have to admit I'm a little confused. I don't believe your iMac is a Core 2 Duo. The only Core 2 Duo in 2007 was the mid 2007 24" 2.8 GHz processor, all other 2007 iMacs are 32 bit. I would recommend going to this site to see what the specifications are for your machine, simply type in the SN and it will let you know.

  • Can I run Lightroom 5 on an iPad2? or do I need Lightroom Mobile for that?

    I just upgraded to Lightroom 5. About to take an extended photo trip to Africa. I've been offered the use of an iPad2 so I don't have to carry my laptop with me - only thing is, I want to be able to use Lightroom on it. Anyone know if it's possible to put Lightroom on an iPad2? Or do I need the mobile version of Lightroom? And is that a separate purchase?

    You can't run Lightroom on an iPad; it is an OS X application not an iOS application.
    Lightroom Mobile requires an Adobe Creative Cloud subscription. Do you have that? It's not available if you purchased the standalone version of Lightroom.

  • Can I run adobe master collection in a windows partition on a basic mbp 13" with only the intel chipset?

    can I run adobe master collection in a windows partition on a basic mbp 13" with only the intel chipset?
    I want to install 16 gb ram but I don't think I can change the lack of video card. I wanted this basic machine because it has fairly long battery life. I don't need or want retina at this time. My model is the mid 2012 model. I am running the adobe collection for mac, I want to run the windows versions. Is it possible? What is the most ram I could access using something like fusion 5, assuming I could get fusion 5 to work? would it refuse to run because of the intel chipset and lack of video card?
    If I'm wrong and there is a way to add a video card to this model, could some version of fusion and windows 7 access more than 2 gb operating ram?
    What  cost would I be incurring, and would it be cheaper to buy a windows laptop with more ram than I could access via a virtual machine?
    I want to work on a client's work in the windows versions of the creative suite, with occasional usage of after effects for windows, and to use some web plug-ins only available in windows versions, and to try some windows-only video and audio software.
    thanks for any suggestions. While many people have told me I can run everything on my macbook, I am concerned about what I think is a limited amount of ram that can be accessed over the virtual machine partition softwares, and I don't know if what I want to attempt is actually possible.
    My mbp os is 10.8.2 on a 2.5 GHz intel core i5 4 gb 1600MHz DDR3 with 500 hard drive. the basic 13" mid 2012 machine.
    I'm hoping to install 16 G of opertating ram to allow more adobe programs to run concurrently- just when I am working on the mac side.
    also, off track but, for years I have wanted a small  machine that is more easily portable than my 15" machines. I have only had this used machine for a few weeks, but already I have been very satisfied and used it for presentations at clients. I don't want an air because I really want the dvd burner and player. No matter what apple says about wireless, there are decades of legacy work stored on optical discs all over the world, and I don't want to be unable to open something at a client's office because I don't have a dvd drive. Additionally, I have very large files I want to transfer via ethernet or firewire so that the transfer will take less time and be more secure than wifi. I resist apple's trend to make every machine a disposable toy that is viable only a year or so. I have read reviews that label the mbp it a poor value compared to the air. If all you need to do is text and communicate via wifi, many devices will sufice, and an air is certainly the most elegant. But what about the cost of large ssd's and protecting the drive against damage from shock? I want to be able to move this thing around and the small size is much safer inside my padded bag when I sit in narrow airplane seats, crowded trains and other congested spaces. I am much more likely to be able to borrow a large screen in a client's office ( with the use of one of the three adapters I had to buy) than to be able to borrow a dvd drive that has drivers for mac os 10.8.2. I suspect this may be the last generation of machines that have optical drives and ethernet, and that was why I purchased it so that I could continue to do work into the next few years. I am impressed by the retina display, but I need long battery life. And as beautiful as the retina display is, it is even more of a problem when trying to cross platform with the windows world. I wish I could infuence apple to do a trial product flow for a machine designed to work with 80% of the business world that uses windows. How spectacular that would be. With all their expertise and adept hardware design, to create a machine that cross platforms better than a windows machine itself works? Now that would be an accomplishment.  Instead of 8 or 9 percent of the total computer sales, why not aim for a higher percentage? Smart devices will keep moving toward portable computers in power, anyway.

    Fusion should work on your machine and if you put 16 GB of RAM in (see http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_160 0MHz_SDRAM), Fusion can access a good portion of that. Also, in a Virtual Machine, the guest OS is presented with Fusion's video card emulation, not what's in hardware on your Mac. Of course, finding Windows 7 now that Win 8 has been released could take some doing and the Win 8 Pro upgrade price is supposed to jump to $200 the end of the month. Add that to the price of Fusion and the extra RAM and you're beginning to get into the realm of low end real PC's.
    As to cross platform, I assume you're aware of BootCamp (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1461).

  • Can I run Logic 9 with 32 bit support alongside Logic X on the same Mavericks computer?

    Hello friends,
    I am upgrading from Snow Leopard and Logic 8 to Mavericks and Logic X.  It's my understanding that Logic 8 doesn't play nice with Mavericks, but I heard that the latest version of Logic 9 does.  I never used Logic 9 before, but it is my understanding that you could run Logic 9 in 32-bit mode and it should be compatible with all Logic 8 projects.  Is this true on Mavericks?  I am on the verge of setting up multiple partitions, one for Logic 8 on 10.6 and the other for Logic X on 10.9, but if I could launch logic 9 with 32 bit support on mavericks when I needed access to my 32 bit reliant projects, that would certainly be better!
    Would both versions of Logic work on the same system together in the way that as I hope?  Obviously, I wouldn't need them both open at the same time, but I didn't know if one would work correctly after installing the other, etc.
    Thanks very much!  Upgrading can be a hassle with consideration to legacy projects!   This would just be one step for me; it's a whole other question as to whether or not I could get the fxpansion vst wrapper working in Logic 9 on mavericks (surprisingly, it seemed to work with Logic 8 on mavericks, but the black curtain of Logic 8 almost makes it unusable).
    Thanks very much!

    Thanks everyone!   I was afraid that I was going to have as much trouble as I did migrating from Logic 4 to Logic 7 (yeesh, what a mess that was).
    Blueberry, are you warning about literally running both Logic 8 and Logic X simultaneously?   Because I don't imagine I would do that.  Could their be adverse consequences of merely having both installed?
    It is my hope that I can gracefully migrate away from Logic 8/9 altogether, but the OCD in me needs to have adequate access to legacy projects in a pinch.
    Thanks again!

  • Can't run iTunes off-network

    I have my laptop hooked into my company's network. When I remove my laptop from the network, iTunes won't open, saying it cannot find the iTunes folder. I can only run iTunes when I am hooked into my network settings. It would not even install on my laptop unless I was on the network. How do I configure iTunes so that it is self-contained on my laptop? Can anyone help me?

    Having similar problem with iTunes.msi.
    Error 1316. A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file C:\WINDOWS\Installer\iTunes.msi
    May or May not be related but I have a hunch it is. This has been around on my Laptop for about a year every since a botched iTunes Quicktime install. Never have been able to get iTunes to run, or update Quicktime from an early version 6. Finally got Quicktime updated and installed through apple updater today. It errored similar to the error you posted except it suggested using tools, download only and manual install from the Apple Updater Menu. Quicktime worked, iTunes didn't so I figured I'm tired of blowing it off and see what the fine people here at Support can offer-up.
    Still have the following Error:

  • Can´t run Lightroom

    Hi to all:
    I,m Carlos, from Spain, and since one week I have a problem with Ligtroom:
    Since a blue screen on Windows Vista, when I was launching Lightroom 1.3.1, if I try to launch again an error occurs:
    Runtime Error!
    Program: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Lightroom.exe
    If I re-install and run Lightroom 1.3 or 1.4 it crashes again, but if I re-install 1.1 or 1.2 versions it runs OK.
    Windows says that I have an error on MSVCR80.dll
    What can I do?

  • Question:  Can I run Lightroom on windows XP?

    Just downloaded lightroom.  To my surprise, Windows XP is not listed as a qualifying syastem under System Requirements.  Will Lightroom run using Windows XP Service Pack 3?

    If you mean Lightroom 4, the answer is NO. (You need Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8)
    If you mean Lightroom 3 or earlier, the answer is YES.

  • HT1199 Can  I run iTunes and Apps on my Windows 7 computer or do I need an ipad or iphone ?

    Can I run ITunes and Apps on my Windows7 computer. So  far the one App I have downloaded just won't run. Do I need an iPad or IPhone to run these programmes?

    There is an iTunes on the idevices, just a Store effectvily.
    There is an iTunes on a PC and Mac, which is the Library handler, and connects to the iDevices for sync and backup.
    The Apps that you download for iDevices are downloaded with "Appstore" on that iDevice itself, or downloaded on the Mac or PC with iTunes for transferring to the iDevice.
    That apps will only run on the iDevice.
    For Window s7 and Windows 8 there has just been released a new iTunes version 11.

  • Can we run itunes as a service on windows

    Can we run itunes as a service? If not we really need the dev team to step up and fix it.
    With the new option for sync over wifi we really need a service that runs in the background of our home pc's for the sync. As you know this takes place everytime you apply power, or when you hit the sync now button. So, unless we run itunes in its fullest all the time we can't count on the wifi sync to do what it is designed for. Running itunes eats up computer resources that some people need when doing school work, job work, and other important things. So please build a new version of itunes that allows it to run in the background and serve as a sync service.
    Anyway this might be the wrong place for a suggestion but hopefully someone will get it to the right people.
