Installing Lightroom 2nd time on new PC

I have just bought Lightroom 4 on a CD. Iøm about to install it but also know that my current PC will have a very limited life before it crashes. Will I have problems installing the Lightroom on another PC? I have of course my product # etc. but don't want to have problems when registering the product on hte new PC.
Current PC is Windows 7, new one likely to be Windows 8
Anything I need to worry about?

You can install Lightroom 4 on Windows 8 and there is no issue, it should work fine without any trouble.
You can also check tech specs of lightroom 4 for more compatiablity details : http://www.adobe.com/in/products/photoshop-lightroom/tech-specs.html

  • My previous computer (with Lightroom 4 installed, teacher edition) broke down, I bought a new one - changing from PC to Apple. I was unable to re-install Lightroom 4 in the new computer.

    I was unable to re-install Lightroom 4 in the new computer - the system suggests to contact Adobe. How can I solve the problem? I previously used only one installation.

    Hi Ned,
    at the very beginning of the installation process. I got the following message: (translation from Italian)Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.pkg cannot be installed because the digital signature is invalid. The certificate has been Invalidated.
    As I said, I only installed the software once in my previous PC. The (student/teacher) version was both Windows and Mac compatible.
    Thank you

  • Backed up Lightroom 2 to a 'backup plus'.  Will be installing Lightroom 5 to a new Win 7 computer and want to move only the photos to a dedicated 1 tb drive in the machine.  Anyone know Where my actual photos are stored on 'backup plus'?  Thank you

    Backed up Lightroom 2 to a Seagate 'backup plus'.  Will be installing Lightroom 5 to a new Win 7 computer and want to move only the photos to a dedicated 1 tb drive in the machine.  Anyone know where my actual photos are stored on 'backup plus'? Thank you

    Thank you for your reply.  I have been backing up my entire computer and when I follow anything having to do with Lightroom I am not finding actual photos.  I hope to find the photos that have been backed up along with updates to them that my wife has been performing during her edits.  Found Lightroom 2 catalog Previews/Lrdata.  Could that be it?

  • How do I download and install Lightroom 5 on a new MacBook Pro, as I have replaced the original MacBook Pro that it was installed on when I purchased it 9 months ago?

    I purchased - downloaded and installed Lightroom 5 on my old Macbook Pro in June, 2014.  I have since replaced that computer with a new Macbook Pro.  I uninstalled Lightroom from that computer.  I would like to download Lightroom 5 onto my new computer, but none of the codes I have are working.  How can I download it without having to re-purchase it?

  • Attempts at installing Lightroom and Cs5 on new iMac

    I just purchased and received a new iMac.  I have used one for a few years and had purchased Lightroom 3 and Cs5 for it.  Now that I have a new computer, I would like to use both programs with it.  But when I insert the cd's to install, nothing happens.  Usually, an installation window appears to step me through the process.  I tried a Mac software (iWork) that I had used with my other computer and did not have any problems so it's not the computer.  I am hoping that I can use these two programs with the new computer, especially since I have several hundred dollars invested in both.  Can anyone tell me how to solve this issue?  Thanks!

    Does your DVD for the installation of the Adobe software works on the Different computer ?
    We need what exactly happen when you insert the DVD in your iMac, does it eject out , stays there but you can hear it reading.

  • Installing InDesign 2nd time, same computer.

    My computer got a malware virus and needed to be wiped and as a consequence I lost In Design (purchased in July 2014). I have my licence no. but I am confused as to how to reinstall it. I downloaded the InDesign Creative Cloud but when I enter my licence no. in the 'licence this product' section it says it is not valid. Any help would be great as I really have no clue what I'm doing. Thanks

    do you have id cc?  ie, if you still have a cc subscription, you can install again using the same adobe id used to subscribe.
    if you purchased id cs6 (or some previous version), download the installation files and install using your serial number.

  • Installing Presets in LR3 on New iMac

    I just installed Lightroom 3 on a new iMac and I am trying to install my presets from my old computer. I go to library>application support>adobe>lightroom and there is nothing in the lightroom folder. I'm not sure where the information is. The software is definitely installed as I can open and use it. I try to "open in finder" any of the presets already in lightroom but it is not allowing me to do this. Please help! I have several lightroom presets I need to install. I must be missing something.

    Next time, see here for file locations.

  • I just installed lightroom 5, 3 weeks later my computer crashed, I know I can move files but how about the license? I also installed a second copy on a laptop that I used for class

    There is no activation process like there is with Photoshop. So you can just go ahead and install Lightroom again on your new or rebuilt computer.
