If I reinstall Lightroom for Creative Cloud, will I lose my pictures?

I recently bought creative cloud but it's not recognizing that I have Lightroom downloaded already. If I install it again will I lose my photos?

No.  Just uninstall what you have, perhaps log out and back into CC Desktop, and install the CC version of LR.  The preferences and image catalog and images will remain where they are, and things should pick up where you left off assuming you’ve just been using the non-CC version of LR 5 and you have the preference set to remember the last catalog.  Just in case it might be worth finding where your catalog resides, by looking in LR preferences, so you can start up LR by double-clicking the .lrcat file.

  • How to reinstall Lightroom for Creative Cloud from Application Manager

    Lightroom would not launch from the Lightroom icon, so I tried to locate Lightroom and start it start it from my list of programs. Seemed to be a problem and still wouldn't start. I then removed Lightroom from Control Panel by "Add, Remove Programs". I wrongly presumed this would change the status in Adobe Application Manager from "installed".
    Please advise how I can re-install Lightroom with my Creative Cloud Membership. I think it would have been much easier to have a re-install button next to the product for situations like this, as the Application Manager doesn't seem to recognise uninstalled programs.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Also, please advise what I should do if this happens again, if different from what I mentioned above.
    Thanks,
    Julie

    I wrongly presumed this would change the status in Adobe Application Manager from "installed".
    It should. What specific error did you get with your LR? For anything else you might try running the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool and let it reinstall things...

    Thanks.

    I stumbled upon the solution. In addition to downloading Creative Cloud, I needed to go back to the website and  download trials for the programs I want to use--Photoshop and Lightroom. Once I did that, I was in business. Would save trouble if that was made clear on the download site.
    Thanks

  • I have paid for creative cloud, photoshop works fine but it will not let me register lightroom

    I have paid for creative cloud, photoshop works fine but it will not let me register Lightroom

    Lightroom must be installed via the Creative Cloud Application.
    It sounds like you have installed a Perpetual Licensed Version or a Trial Version of Lightroom. Uninstall any versions you have installed of Version 5 and then reinstall via the Creative Cloud App.

    Paulou12 what type of a Creative Cloud Membership do you have?  You can find details on how to update Lightroom using the Creative Cloud Desktop application at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.
    Finally if you are in a managed environment then please work with your I.T. department to apply the update.
