Cant Lightroom be used as standalone, or must I use the unsafe cloud solution?

Cant Lightroom be used as standalone, or must I use the unsafe cloud solution?

the stand-alone version is the same software as comes from the cloud - you can verify the MD5/SHA checksums if you don't believe me.
it may be worth elaborating what it is you are concerned about (I'm not familiar with the safety issue that Adobe has "shown us before").
But regardless, Lightroom is available "stand-alone" and will be "indefinitely" so no reason to fret, yet..

    I am currently using the adobe cloud service and would like to give my granddaughter my original lightroom and photoshop programs.  Would do I need to do to remove them from my computer to hers?  The lightroom 5 program has been replaced with the cloud version on my computer.

    Follow the steps listed at  Transfer an Adobe product license
    Lightroom has no activation check so you don't need to do anything to your computer. Your old copy of Photoshop must be deactivated / uninstalled if you haven't already done so.

    why do i get the following message when i attempt to open my backup file for lightroom cc?  "Lightroom cannot use the catalog named "Lightroom Catalog" because it is not writable and cannot be opened".  This message just started coming  up after downloading lightroom cc (previously using lightroom 5)...am i backing up properly or not???

    Open Pictures folder and move the files named lrcat-journal and lrcat.lock to Desktop.
    Make sure that , they are not inside Pictures folder any more and try to open backup from Lighrtroom and check..
    Any LRcat file with .lock extension , move it to Desktop.

    I  have a new Mac Pro computer and have migrated my files from my older computer to the new computer. In trying to open a Lightroom catalog on an external hard drive  I keep on getting the message "lightroom cannot use the catalog named " " because it is  not writable and cannot be opened. I have fixed all the "permissions" and yet it will still not open. How do I fix this?

    Hello Forum Members,
    I figured it out. You have to select  the actual logo of the Lightroom catalog and then click on  "get info" and allow what ever your new user name to "read and write". That worked!

  • Do I need to tell Lightroom to use the Graphics Card in my new laptop?

    HI!
    I have a new laptop and have successfully transferred my pics, catalogue and LR settings across. 
    It has better specs than my last one, including a decent (I think!) dedicated graphics card.  I have always had integrated graphics before so am not sure how this works.  Do I need to tell applications, such as Lightroom, to use the graphics card, or will this be automatically be done by the software/operating system?  If I do need to do anything, is this in each software (like Lightroom), the computer settings, or in some third party control software?
    Thanks for your thoughts.

    Thanks for that.  That seems a shame, although hopefully the increased CPU will help it run more smoothly anyway.
    Do you know off hand whether I would need to do anything for other programs with regards to the graphics card or is everything automated?
    thanks again

  • Lightroom cannot use the Catalog named "Lightroom 5" because it is not ........

    I keep getting an error after closing Lightoom "Lightroom cannot use the Catalog named "Lightroom 5" because it is not writable and cannot be opened"
    Eventually I have been able to regain acess only to have it happen again, it is happening every day now.  I have tried shutting down services and programs, sometimes it works. I have restarted my computer, I have deleted previews.lrdat and that worked once, but not always.  I have saved and optimised the catalog, still happens.  there is no journal file open or in existence when this error happens and finally, now I have lost my publish services which represent the record of hudreds, even thousands of online images.  HELP

    Have you checked the permissions on the folder where the catalog is stored and the permissions on the catalog file itself? Does it show write permission or something else?
    And just a wild shot in the dark, you should also check to see if the catalog file or its folder is shown as Read Only by your operating system (It should not be)

    Please read this: Adobe Lightroom - Find moved or missing files and folders
    You do not want to be in the Import section of Lightroom, you want to be in the Library Module. You don't want "Update Folder Location", you want to ctrl-click on a Folder name (not in Import, but in the Library Module Folder Panel) and select "Find Missing Folder"
    You do not want to re-import photos that have already been imported, this is almost always a bad thing to do.

  • How can I use the Creative Cloud without having a Credit Card? Why are there no other possibilities?

    How can I use the Creative Cloud without having a Credit Card? Why are there no other possibilities?

    Hi @DRB1961, 
    I do not think the Zeen will work if you no longer have the C510 printer. The printer is necessary to ensure the Zeen is up to date. The Zeen is simply not a standalone device, it is a component of the printer.   I can not say this with certainty that it will not work, so it is worth trying to reset the Zeen to finding out for sure.
    When you see this message, "must dock the Zeen to the printer to continue", can you access the settings using the 3rd icon above the touch screen? If so we can do a factory reset, if not there is no other way I can think of to bypass this message.
    I just tried a reset on a Zeen I have access to, after the initialization, it prompts me to attach the Zeen to the printer to continue with product setup. it appears my original speculation was correct. No, you can not use the Zeen without the printer.

  • HT204053 My daughter and me use the same cloud ID and to buy songs and now all her contacts ended up on my new iphone 5  and I manually erased all from my phone and now they are gone from her phone.  How does she get back her contacts?

    My daughter and me use the same cloud and apple id to buy songs in the past.  I got first iphone 5 and after trying to set up itunes to phone I ended up with all my daughters contacts from her iphone on my iphone.  I then deleted them from my phone one by one and now they are gone from her phone as well.  How does she get them back on hers and what happen????  Help with cloud!

    That's what happens when you share the same iCloud account.  First, migrate his phone to a different iCloud account using a different ID (you can continue to share the same ID for other services such as iTunes if you want).  To do this, on his phone save any photo stream photos that he wants to keep to his camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If he are syncing notes with iCloud that he wants to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to him so he can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in his new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; this won't effect your phone), provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create his new account and choose Merge to upload the data.  After doing this, he can go to icloud.com and safely delete your data from his new account.
    Then, if your contacts were on your phone when you last backed it up to iCloud, you can restore them by following Winston Churchill's user tip here: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841.  This involves turning off your wifi after your phone restarts during the restore process, then saving the contacts on your phone and deleting them from iCloud prior to turning your wifi back on and allowing the restore process to finish.  You can turn off your wifi either by pulling the cord out of the WAN port in your wifi router, or by simply unplugging it.

  • I downloaded the full Ultimate Christmas.  I have a corrupt song.  I have Windows XP so I can not use the iTunes Cloud.  It says that is the only way to re-download songs now is via the Cloud.  How do I get a uncorrupted version of my song?

    I downloaded the full Ultimate Christmas.  I have a corrupt song.  I have Windows XP so I can not use the iTunes Cloud.  It says that is the only way to re-download songs now is via the Cloud.  How do I get a uncorrupted version of my song?
    When I thing of the Thousands of dollars I have spent to get a 2000 song library and how Applle keeps screwing Windows users (no back-up of songs) I just think what a fool I was.

    I did think about that and if I have to I will do that, however there are about 50 songs. I have closed and reopened iTunes several times and I am sure that I have the latest version. It fails right away but I can click on the cloud download icon and download the song that it failed on ... therefore it is not that song "or any one song" causing the issue. Any ideas?
