If i buy lightroom 5 am i able to wait for instant lightroom 8

without installing lightroom updated version 6 and 7 or would i have to buy the updates  to continue to and get lightroom 8

you can upgrade to lightroom 5 from any previous version (1,2,3 or 4) of lightroom.  whether that policy will continue into the future can't be guaranteed by anyone.

  • I am about to buy my first Macbook Pro, should I wait for the possibility for a 2015 macbook, or just get the most recent model currently? (9-22-14)

    I am about to buy my first Macbook Pro, should I wait for the possibility for a 2015 macbook, or just get the most recent model currently? (9-22-14)

    No one knows if there will be a new model and if so, when that would be. However, there always will be something bigger, better, and newer around the corner, so you'd be waiting forever.
    Buy it when you want or need it.
    FWIW, here are the specs of the latest models (which happen to be mid 2014):

  • Want to buy a new Mini, but should I wait for Snow Leopard?

    I'm ready to buy a Mac Mini now. But with Snow Leopard just around the corner, I would hate to have to dish out another $129 for Snow Leopard when I could have just waited a few months for it to ship with the Mini.
    Is it worth it to wait, or should I just dive into a new Mini with just Leopard?
    Any thoughts on this will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the great input everyone!
    Most of you say 'go for it now', and that's the way I'm leaning, but I'll drill down a little deeper with where I'm at on this.
    I've been wanting to get a Mini since they first came out, but more intently since last fall. I heard that they were due for a refresh, and rumors had been floating that there would be new models in Q1 of 2009. I had hoped to see them at Macworld, but we all know what a disappointment that was. So after much anticipation, they're finally here. All that to say, I have a very strong desire to order one right now.
    But then there is this question of Snow Leopard. My main reason (although there are many) for getting a Mini is to record my broadcast TV shows in HD with eyeTV. I've been using my Dual 867Mhz Power Mac G4 (MDD) to record shows in analog mode with eyeTV, and it does it very successfully. But my G4 doesn't meet the requirements to record in HD (although I've tried it and it will record HD, but it's not always successful and it takes at least 12 to export it to iTunes). Also, broadcast TV is going to can analog on June 12. So I wont be able to record my shows after that unless I have the Mini.
    So, here is where I'm at with this dilemma:

    There is a good argument to say that if you have no immediate need for a new system, you should wait until Snow leopard is announced, but not yet pre-installed on systems in the supply chain and buy a system then. That would give you an installed copy of Leopard and either a Snow Leopard upgrade disk in the box, or an 'up-to-date' program option to buy a Snow Leopard copy for a small fee. That would give you the best of both worlds.
    This is exactly what I'd like - "the best of both worlds." Getting SL with the Mini but not having it pre-installed would be ideal.
    But will the announcement come at the WWDC?
    Will the WWDC be held at the speculated date of June 6-12 (which is right before the DTV switch btw)? And even if I wait for the announcement, this is not the guaranteed outcome (they could end up saying that all systems will be shipping with SL today).
    Ugh! I'm so torn.
    Does anyone know how far ahead they announce the date of the WWDC?

  • Sould i buy the white 4g ipod touch, or wait for the 5g ipod touch?

    I have the third generation ipod touch, and i love it but it doesnt have a camera. I was waiting for the fifth generation to come out but instead they released the same model but in white. Now i don't know if i should wait another year to buy the ipod touch which might have new features or just buy the white ipod.

  • I started a trial of creative cloud and downloaded lightroom. I decided to buy lightroom on amazon because I liked it. Now when I try to license the trial version of lightroom with the serial number, it says it's invalid. Why?

    I started a trial of creative cloud and downloaded lightroom. I decided to buy lightroom on amazon because I liked it. Now when I try to license the trial version of lightroom with the serial number, it says it's invalid. Why?

    The standalone version and the CC version are both the same exact program, but the licensing is completely different. It will be necessary for you to uninstall the creative cloud trial version and then install the one you purchased from Amazon. After you install, you will be able to open the same catalog and continue from where you were.

  • How can I buy Lightroom 3?

    Please, help me with it! I love Lightroom very much and I want to work more and more.

    Adobe does not sell older versions of their software.  You will have to take your chances purchasing thru some third party vendor if you are able to find one.

  • I do not want Creative Cloud. My current version of Lightroom is 5.7. I take it I have to buy Lightroom 6 outright? Are there any price concessions for upgrades?

    I do not want Creative Cloud. My current version of Lightroom is 5.7. Are there any price concessions for upgrades or do I have to buy Lightroom 6 outright?

    @landaloons who posted: "Clicking 'Checkout' does nothing.  There is apparently no way to get the upgrade at present."
    Your browser has to have tracking enabled and open a pop-up for Checkout to work. Browser add-ons and custom settings can block this from happening.  In Firefox I had to temporarily disable Ghostery to advance past the Checkout button. You may have a similar tracker/pop-up disabler in your browser that you need to turn off temporarily. Alternatively try a different browser with no custom settings. Doing this I was able to download and install a $79.99 upgrade version, so it does work, but they don't make it easy to find or do. They want you to subscribe instead. (In fairness, though, you'd have this same Checkout issue trying to subscribe to CC if your browser settings block advancement past the Checkout button.)

  • If I buy Lightroom for PC, can I still use it if I switch to a Mac in the future?

    If I buy Lightroom for PC, can I still use it if I switch to a Mac in the future?

    Yes, LR is cross-platform.

  • Buying Lightroom + Photoshop Elements / Premiere Pro + MC CS5 ?

    Hi Community,
    i would like to know if it makes sense buying Lightroom 3 AND Phtoshop Elements AND Master Collection CS5 ?
    I will definately buy soon the CS5 Master Collection, but do the other tools have possibilites / functions and stuff the Master Collection doesnt have  or cant be done with the Master Collection ?
    If YES, what are the main differences between LR / PE and the CS5 ??
    I have read the product informations for all three mentioned tools, but still can not decide wheather the Master Collection does include the functionality the other two products do (in my opinion and according to the MC CS 5 slogan: the MC CS 5 ist the ultimate software tool that can be everything done with!!!)
    Hope for fast reply and wish you an nice weekend.
    regards
    MC

    I got PSE 8 which is way more than I need, and then downloaded the trial of Lr3 - which I love. Pse 8 will do advanced when for me when the time comes.  Investigate the features of these two - and see if you actually need MC CS to save money...

  • I have a trial version of Lightroom 4.. Will I loose my work if I buy Lightroom 5?

    I have a few days left on my free 30 day subscription of Lightroom 4. Can anyone let me know if I need to do anything special (as far as installation, etc) in order to buy lightroom 5? I want to keep my edits, collections, etc.
    Thanks!

    No worries.
    Simply install LR5. It will find the catalogs and promot you to update them. This actually duplicates the catalogs to make them compatible with LR5.
    You can then delete your LR4 catalog. And uninstall LR4.

  • I'd love to buy Lightroom but I can't cause I'm now living in Australia but I create my account when I was living in Belgium.

    I'd love to buy Lightroom but I can't cause I'm now living in Australia but I create my account when I was living in Belgium so it says that I can't buy with this account cause I'm not in Belgium. How can I change my country??

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons..
    If no joy...
    Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.

  • Can I still use my Lightroom 4.1 after I buy Lightroom 5?

    Hi,
    A few weeks ago I bought Lightroom 4.1 Student/Teacher. I saw that Lightroom 5 is coming out soon, if I buy it, can I still use my 4.1 version? Could I even register Lightroom 5 with the same proof that I am a student that I used for registering Lightroom 4.1? I have Lightroom 4.1 on my laptop and was thinking about buying Lightroom 5 for my PC. But I don't know if I can still buy the Student/Teacher version!?
    Any ideas?
    Thanks for the help!

    The upgrade price is the same as what the student version costs. I purchased an academic version of Lightroom 4, and upgraded to Lightroom 5 online/download. There were no problems, and you don't have to do any of the student verification stuff. I still have both versions installed and active on my computer.

  • If I buy Pages, will I be able I upload pdf and word files to websites?

    If I buy Pages, will I be able I upload pdf and word files to websites?

    Pages can export to PDF and .doc formats and send those via email, but it has no "upload" function.  That is something you normally do with a browser or an ftp app.

    Try creating an Adobe ID with your country entered as your homeland when prompted to by the registration process. This should allow you to buy Lr in your country.
