How/where can I download Lightroom 5.5 Update ?

My standalone (not Cloud !) Lightroom on my Windows PC tells me I can/should update to Version 5.5. I have been thrashing around through a jungle of Adobe webpages in an attempt to download that version. The nearest I get is an invitation to download a Trial version which (a) I don't want and (b) leads me on to questions about my skill level etc. Other pages seem to be obsessed with "Cloud solutions" but I want the standalone version. I am beginning to suspect that I am deliberately being led up a garden path here with the objective of getting me to convert to Cloud.
Does anyone here know where there is a simple one-click link which will allow me to download the Lightroom 5.5 Windows Update ?

Thanks for your replies. To JohnHawk: not condescending at all.
PROBLEM NOW SOLVED even if the solution leaves me puzzled.
I use Firefox as my default browser.
When I fire up my Lightroom 5.4 like yours -  it more or less immediately comes up with the window
=============================================
5.5
Support for syncing star ratings and custom sort order to Lightroom mobile and Lightroom web.
Fixes for bugs introduced in earlier versions of Lightroom 5.
Camera support for additional new lenses and cameras.
Current version : 5.4 (build 955652)
=============================================
and at the bottom right of that window there is a Download button. However, when I click on that it takes me in Firefox to Adobe - Lightroom : For Windows : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.5 but when I select "Lightroom" on that page it takes me to Photo editor app | Download free Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 trial which contains acres of Lightroom ads but no "Download" button apart from the "Free trial".
I looked around to see whether my Firefox is blocking something but no success there. I also tried it with Windows IE by copy-pasting the URL from the Firefox browser tab to Windows IE. Same useless result as with Firefox.
Then, doggedly determined to try everything on an arbitrary basis, I changed my default browser to Windows IE and re-clicked on the Download button at the bottom right. Bingo ! Problem solved ! The old familiar Lightroom download page popped up in the IE browser, I clicked on Download, and it is now busily downloading.
So the SOLUTION for my Windows PC/Internet Explorer/Firefox setup but possibly not of use to others is to run IE as the default browser for the purposes of updating Lightroom. I have no idea why that works and copy-pasting the URL to IE doesn't but, heck, it works for me. As a senior surgeon once said to me "Don't think, my boy, it only inhibits !".
Again, thanks for taking time to offer solutions.

    iWork is Pages, Numbers and Keynote.
    Buy all three from the M.A.S. and it is all yours, cheaper and installable on all Macs that share the same Apple I.D.. However I have heard, but can't confirm, that that doesn't quite have everything the DVD version had.

    Where can i download Intel HD driver update for satellite a660-1en?

    >cant insall last driver from intel(they told me that i must download new driver from Toshiba
    It is possible to install the driver from Intel but you have to do this is device manager!
    You have to FORCE windows choosing the downloaded driver and this can be done using the advanced installation procedure. This helps to choose the driver from Intel and to finish the installation!

    I only have Vista at this time, and would like to try Lightroom to run with my Photoshop Elements 11.  I'm not sure if my computer set up can run both, and I'm not sure if I can run Lightroom.

    But make sure you follow the important steps mentioned on the page before initiating the download.

  • How can I download lightroom 4.3 update?

    I have Lightroom 4, version 4.1 and have searched for updates. I get to the page on Adobe's web site for the Lightroom update version 4.3 but I can't find out how to download it. There is nothing to click on to actually download it, just a lot of information about the update and the various license and user agreements etc. It doesn't make any difference if I am logged in to Adobe or not, I get the same pages. Can anyone tell me how to download the update please?

    I just tried it and was able to get to the download interface after the type of repetitive activity I described....
    1) At the top of the page select the desired software from the dropdown list and click the Go button
    2) Scroll down the resulting page until you get to the expanded Downloads section where the 4.3 update link is at the top -  click that link
    3) Scroll down the resulting page until you get to the expanded Downloads section where the "Proceed to Download" link is - click that link
    4) Scroll down the resulting page until you get to the expanded Downloads section where the "Download Now" link is - click that link
    The download interface should be opened at this point.  I don't need the download so I didn't try further.

  • How/where can i download old Apple keynotes ?

    I would like to download previous Apple keynote presentations, like WWDC, etc...

    All of you responding thus far have been misinterpreting the original poster's inquiry. They are not asking about the presentation app Keynote. They are asking about the Apple WWDC Keynote Presentations.
    As to the answer to the question originally asked, this is the App Store community forum. So I can see how the others got confused. Next time ask your question in the appropriate forum.
    You can find old WWDC keynotes in iTunes' Podcasts section. Just search for "Apple Keynotes" and you'll find them no problem.
    The SD versions go back to 2007, the HD ones only as far back as 2011.
    If you want to keep any of the presentation videos, it might be a good idea to click the little cloud icon to download the podcast episode from the server.

  • How/where can I download FCP 5.1.2 updater?

    As most people know by now, FCP 5.1.3 breaks critical plugins like Automatic Duck Colorista. I absolutely, positively need these for my workflow.
    Why the **** did Apple completely pull the 5.1.2 updater off the website? I updated to 5.1.3 because I was excited to see that it fixed one of my major issues (the stills & nested sequence issue), but Iʻm now livid that in doing so, they broke an even bigger component of FCP.
    Now before Shane Ross replies to this post with a link to his (awesome) blog, where he preaches about saving local copies of each FCP updater, I have to say that I wasnʻt that smart to do just that...but I donʻt need to be admonished for my dumbdumbness, i just need to get up and running again.
    Can any kind soul provide a download link for the 5.1.2 updater?
    (on my hands and knees, begging)

    Once Apple posts the new update, old ones are removed. Stinks. If you ask me, they should have ALL updated versions posts. Just makes sense.
    Sorry that I posted what you should have done. I am hoping that I can show you what to do in the future. And I really wish that I had a link to post that would contain the 5.1.2 upgrade. And the 5.1.1, as the 5.1.2 upgrade breaks the P2 import option for many many people.
    I'll dig.

  • How/Where can I download CS4 Design Standard trial?

    The Adobe support referencedme to prodesigntools.com for a trial download of CS4 design standard. If I clik thelinks at Download Adobe CS4 and CS3 Free Trials Here (incl. After Effects) | ProDesignTools, the page forwards me to Adobe which says that I need to log-in. However, a ligon does not change anything.
    Plan B: CS4 Design standard is not listed here either http://helpx.adobe.com/de/creative-suite/kb/cs4-product-downloads.html
    I am desperate in finding an active download link.
    Toby

    The ProDesignTools links all work for me.  I am using IE 11, and, first, in the Very Important Instructions section I first Ctrl-click on the Click Here to Visit This Page First link, which shows me a LR 5 download page and most importantly, sets the Adobe authorization cookie, then without closing that tab, I Ctrl-click on the links by CS4 Design Standard and they all started a download, which I immediately cancelled.
