Can't get in Lightroom..

I recently downloaded LR...but it won't let me in.

You apparently do not have a creative cloud account. Even Photoshop is listed with a "Try" button. If you have purchased a standalone Lightroom license it would appear that you have mistakenly installed Lightroom from the creative cloud. You cannot license it with a serial number. Lightroom will have to be removed and then installed from this website:

Where can I get a Lightroom preset that turns a portrait into a sketch?

Where can I find a Lightroom that turns a portrait into a sketch?

If Photoshop or Photoshop Elements is installed, LR can pass an image to that directly; but any other application or standalone utility that you use to carry out a job like this, can be set up as a named "external editor" preset. This gives equally easy access from inside LR. You don't need to Export a copy, start a program, find and open the image; nor, then import the results back to LR - these steps are all automated for you.
You right-click on an image and select your editing preset in the context menu; LR saves a copy of your current image and opens it into the other program. You complete the task there, Save and close. LR now (all by itself) shows two versions of that image - the one you saw before, and a new one which shows the results of your external edit.
So even though LR is not in fact doing the task, but subcontracting it out - it is still just about as convenient for the user, as it would be if this were a true LR extension / plugin.
Some Photoshop plugins come in a standalone version as well, and in that case, the standalone app can be used as a targeted editor by LR, which may be faster and simpler. However if you do use such a plugin (or technique using standard tools) within PS, or other full-featured image editor, you have a full range of other editing possibilities there at the same time; for example, so you can mask and vary the strength of your "sketch" effect across different parts of the photo.

Can't get into Lightroom

Hi all. For some reason I can't access Lightroom on my new windows 8 computer. Some background.... I had a windows 7 computer with Lightroom 5 from a disk loaded on it. Worked fine . Then I downloaded the Lightroom update 5.7. Lightroom has not worked since . I would get these messages.... Lightroom encountered an error when reading from it's preview cache and needs to quit, and also this message , ..... Lightroom will attempt to fix this problem the next time it launches. I just got a new windows 8 computer so I loaded the Lightroom 5 from the disk on it. Same problem !! Went to add/ remove and removed Lightroom. Then I downloaded the latest version of Lightroom { 5.7.1 } Same messages as before with no acess to Lightroom. If I try to click off the message box, Lightroom disappears completely. Any ideas? Thank you.

I am six minutes into the video and while Jan is doing a great (terrific, actually) job of explaining things I already know, she has yet to explain the subject issue. So I am unsure what "at the beginning" means... is there a time-marker for the point you are referring to?
Anyway, I have Lightroom v5.5 and Photoshop CC 2014 installed on two machines -- a Win v8.0 Laptop and a Win v8.1 Desktop. Adobe Camera Raw (in Photoshop) is v8.5 on the Laptop and v8.2 on the Desktop. Therefore when I "edit in" in Photoshop on the Desktop I, too, get the OP's error message. When I use the "Update" option under the "Help" menu in Photoshop (on the Desktop), I am told that all the programs are "Up-to-date."
Does anyone know how to force an ACR update? In other words is there an "install" process somewhere?
Edit: Jan's explanation of the error message starts a the 31:50 mark. It does not, however, answer my question about updating Photoshop CC 2014.

Can I get a Lightroom 5 Blurb book saved as a PDF on my desktop reloaded into LR to make edits

I made a Blurb book with Lightroom 5 saved it (I thought) in Lightroom and as a PDF on my desktop. When I got a print copy back from blurb I want to make edits. When I went to find the book in LR5 there was no sign of it. How can I upload the PDF version on my desktop back into LR5

I don't think that would be possible. Once you exported the book as a PDF file, that file had all the edits, selections, layout, etc. "baked in" to the PDF, so you can't then reverse-engineer the file so it can be re-opened in the Book module. Also, as far as I know LR doesn't support PDF in the various modules - it can only be used for certain exports that are intended to be used elsewhere.
Do you have previous catalogue backups? Perhaps the book is contained within one?

Hello Experts., I would like to use only Lightroom but current set up by Adobe will force me to get Photoshop along with Lightroom. Is there any way where I can get only Lightroom and pay for the same.

In the present set up by Adobe if one need Lightroom alone, they have to get and pay for Photoshop also Which I am not interested. Is there any way I can get only Lightroom.? Please help.

Just for clarity, the strict answer to your question is "no": you can't get just Lightroom for the same price as the Lr/Photoshop Creative Cloud (CC) bundle.
You can buy a stand-alone licence for Lightroom alone - that's what Don and Elie have helped you to find - but the pricing (and licencing) arrangements are entirely different to those which make up the CC bundle.
Note too, it's likely that Lightroom 6 will be coming before long (although how long is not known): you will almost certainly have to pay for the upgrade to Lr 6 if you're on a stand-alone licence, whereas moving from 5 to 6 (and to 7 and to...) is included in the price of the bundle.

How to get the Lightroom S/N?

I just join the Photoshop CC & Lightroom "Photoshop Photography Program", so how can I get the Lightroom S/N?

Hi samsonlo,
If you bought the Photoshop CC Subscription, No serial number is required.
Your subscription is linked with your Adobe ID.
You need to license the software using your Adobe ID.

I aam thinking of changing from a PC to a Mac. Will I need to buy a new Apple compatible version of Lightroom, do I have to pay to upgrade or can I get the new version free?

I am thinking of changing from a PC to a Mac. Will I need to buy a new, Apple compatible, version of Lightroom, or can I upgrade to it, or can I get it free as I've paid for the PC version?

Your licence is not platform specific, so Lightroom can be used on any two machines (Mac and/or WIndows), with one actually being used at any given time.
So no, you're money's safe!

Lightroom opens fine initially, but when trying to open a different catalog it will go through the process but never reopen again. I can't get it to open at all until the computer is reset.

Lightroom opens fine initially, but when trying to open a different catalog it will go through the process but never reopen again. I can't get it to open at all until the computer is reset. I have been using Lightroom 4 for 18 months now and this problem just started happening in the last month.

No error messages. It acts totally normal but just never reopens when I try to reopen a new catalog. I create a catalog for each of my clients....I have done this since I started using lightroom as it seems tidy to me. But, I have never had this problem until now. I am using a pc and vista and Lightroom 4. Thanks.

Can't get lightroom cc to load after install

can't get lightroom cc to load after install

Have you tried logging out of your CC desktop app, then logging back in again? Quit/Restart won't work, but logging out and back in should. See here: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/sign-in-out-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html

How can I get Lightroom to export my edit to a jpeg that looks the same ?

Hi everyone,
I can't get my jpeg export to look the same as it looks in lightroom after edit.
The jpeg isn't that different but still, way too much for me.
I did use sRVB, 100% no scaling etc... but it seems the export won't take "all" of my noise reduction correction..
This is a portrait shot in lowww light, and the raw file was rather crappy. Eventhough I was really happy with my smooth final edit but I can't get my jpeg to look as clean.. please someone help meee !
Regards,

What infos can I give you all to help me sort this problem out ?
export : quality 100%
             sRVB
             no scaling
In lightroom my image is just clean whereas after export, I can notice some artifacts or "moire", and it feels like the noise reduction/sharpen tool doesnt apply its correction as it should.. but it still does a bit bc it's not as if I turned it off completly...
This is driving me crazy
I'm about to install RC3 and try with it...

How can I get back my sliders in the Lightroom Library Module?

I would be really grateful if someone could please explain how can I get back the exposure sliders on the Library panel? I don't like using the stepwise adjustments. I know that the sliders are available on the Develop panel but one of my friends has Lightroom CC & can use the old slider system. Unfortunately I can't find any information as to how to adjust the settings back to sliders.
I am using the latest updated version of Lightroom CC on a Mac.
This may seem a minor issue but it is driving me crazy!
Newbie here (as far as forums are concerned)
Thanks in advance...
Martina

Exposure is not available as a slider in Library.
You can gain finer granularity on Exposure and other controls in the Quick Develop panel with the [Shift] Key.
