How to reinstall LR 4 after reformatting computer?

I had to wipe off and reformat my MacBook Pro - saved all the info from Lightroom 4 - and want to reinstall it.  How do I do that?

Download LR 4.4 here:
Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.4
Install it, re-enter your serial number, copy your catalog over and ideally put all your photos back where they were otherwise you'll have to redirect Lightroom to their current location.

  • HT1391 how to recover itunes library after reformatting computer - has also wiped my ipod clean when I tried to transfer the music from there

    Hi - I have reformatted my computer and want to know how to recover my tunes that were on itunes - I have tried to transfer the tunes from my ipod but it has wiped this clean too - any suggestions welcome!!

    *If my kids dock up their iPods to charge them (the iPods still have the music on them) will the computer "sync" the iPod to the now empty library that's on the computer?*
    If the iPods are set to update automatically you need to take care connecting to an empty iTunes. You can use a keyboard command to prevent an iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on a Mac hold down the Option and Command (⌥ and ⌘ Apple) keys together. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and it will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer. You should then be able to change your settings: iTunes for Mac - Keyboard Shortcuts
    Once the iPods are connected it might be a good idea to change them to manual updating at least until you have your library back in shape. The content of iTunes and the iPod are not syncronised in this mode so the two can be different, you can get details here:
    Managing content manually on iPod
    iPod - Syncing Music
    Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

  • How to reinstall photoshop cc. My computer close down under installation

    How to reinstall photoshop CC. My computer close down under installation, so all files are not installed, but AAM shows that the program is installed, but thats not right. I also tried to intall from photoshop.exe, and get the message, that some files are missing.

    Hi Chris
    Yes, that was what happen. My computer shut down under the installation and therefore are missing some of the files needed.
    The download was finish, so I properly can extract the files after cleaning. Do you know where the file to extract are located or is that one deleted when the process start?
    Thank you for our fast reply Chris.

  • How to reinstall Mountain Lion after Mavericks OS has been installed without using the time machine?

    Hi, I upgraded to Maverics a few weeks ago, and since than my computer has been very slow. It NEVER happened before. Now, I want to go back to Mountain Lion, but I didn't back up my computer with the time machine. I'd appreciate if anyone could tell me how to reinstall Mountain Lion again over Maverics? Thanks a lot for your help!

    You will need either a bootable flash drive with Mountain Lion to install, if you have one, or reinstall Snow Leopard if your computer can boot Snow Leopard. Or you can use Internet Recovery to reinstall the original version of OS X that came with the computer. In any event you will have to repartition and reformat the drive.
    Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion on a New HDD/SDD
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
    Partition and Format the hard drive:
    1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    2. After DU loads select your external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Reloading songs into iTunes after reformatting computer

    I recently reformatted my computer but I had backed up all of my music onto an external harddrive
    So after reformatting, I load all of my music back onto the C drive and then reinstalled iTunes.
    All of my music still shows in the library of iTunes but most have that exclamation point showing that it doesnt know where the file for the song is.
    Lately ive been manually dragging songs one by one into the library but i have almost 5000 songs and thats gonna be a reallllyyy long process lol.
    So I was wondering what the "fast" way to do this is?

    I was watching this topic as well and in the process of watching it i had to reinstall my itunes. I installed a registry fixer program called registry booster2 from uniblue and ran it before i installed quicktime or itunes. I downloaded a seperate up to date quicktime and than installed the up to date itunes and when I put my music back on I did not have any of those exclamation marks.
    don't know if it will work for you but thought i would share.

  • I am trying to reinstall PSE 9 after a computer reformat and I keep getting a message that it is the incorrect serial number for the trial. I bought the program in February of 2011, and I think I've only had it on one computer and that's this one. Windows

    I had to have my computer reformatted in July,  and am just now trying to install PSE9. When I tried to enter the serial number I got a dialog box that stated that this serial number was not valid for the trial. I bought this. According to my profile, I bought in in February 2011. I have only had it on this computer and I have never installed Premier Elements.  Can you help please?  Thank you, Kayt

  • How to reinstall music on a new computer

    I had to reformat the computer that was having issues with mcafee firewall. I backed up computer using an external HD and upon restarting the computer I accidently named the computer something else. It ended up putting 2 different users and itunes did not merge the music over. I had an ipod, iphone and an ipad connected to this computer. Itunes is showing the music/artist but it says it cannot play that song because its not in the file and asks if it could locate it. How do I get the files over for my iphone? Do I have to reformat again? Using windows 7 pro, iphone 4s v6.1.1

    Restore the media from the backup of the computer.
    Frankly the name of hte computer is irrelevant.

  • How to reinstall lightroom 4 after hard drive crash

    My hard drive recently crashed and I have an all new one now.  My comp is running Mavericks and I need to reinstall Lightroom 4 (that was the latest version I was using, and I downloaded it, no cd).  How do I reinstall it??  When I go to "My Orders," the download option is not available.

    I believe this might of worked after all. I did like you said and double clicked on the My Catalog file. PSA and it just put in the timeline and dates on the pictures but had a ? mark and no picture. I then chose to dowload files from the My pictures folder that the downloader was directed to for each download. It seems to restoring the photo's and putting them with the tags and all. I am so relieved because I had 37,500 pictures that would of been untagged and out of order. I learned my lesson to do a backup more frequently! Thanks for your help. If I would want to update to PSE 9 is it compatible with windows XP?

  • I tried to reinstall CS 6 after my computer crashed.  Now I cannot access any of the windows (e.g. on the paragraph  style window my mouse does not move me to a new style as it does not move the slider)

    I had to reinstall the CS 6 after a crash.  Now I cannot move any slider with my mouse on any window.  This means I cannot change a style, or a swatch, I cannot move to a master page.

    I used the CD and followed the directions  and accepted all the default.
