Installing Lightroom 4 from CD onto imac error

I have just bought Lightroom 4 on CD and have ben trying to install on my imac with OSX Snow Leopard 10.6 I believe. I When I try to start the install, I get the following -
The operation couldn't be completed (com.apple.installer.page controller error -1.) couldn't open 'Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.pkg'
Can anyone help with this?
Thanks.

I downloaded the software directly as you suggested, but still the same error message comes up when I try to install. I also had to do the same thing with my Canon Utilities software, but it doesn't work properly on the mac either. I am begining to suspect that my imac is too old to work with the latest programmes.

How to install software from disk onto imac

how to install software from disk onto imac

Are you using one of the newer iMac's with no DVD drive? If so, you can either get an external CD/DVD drive (any make - doesn't have to be Apple) or, if you have another Mac on the same network that has a CD/DVD drive you may be able to do it by turning on 'DVD or CD Sharing' on that Mac (System Preferences>Sharing). Hopefully you'll see the disk on the Mac without the DVD drive and be able to install from there.

How to install Lightroom from CC when Lr5 is already installed

Little help?
I have LR 5 (5.2) installed and have just joined the photographers deal. I have installed Ps no problem but have been told by 'Chat' that to install lightroom from the cc i first need to uninstall lightroom 5? Surely not? Do i need to re-import everything, redo all the previews, recreate all my collections?
Surely im missing something?
Thanks for any advice.

open lr5, click help>deactivate.
then click help>activate and use your cc adobe id to activate.
although, if you already purchased lr 5 outright, it doesn't make sense to do that.
on the other hand if you have lr 5 via a previous cc subscription you should have used the same adobe id for both cc purchases.

I can't install Lightroom from CC subscription

Hello, I can't install Lightroom from Adobe CC
Following 30 days of test with an evaluation version, I have subscribed to a pack CC+Lightroom; all is OK with CC, the evaluation version has been replaced by the subscribed one.
But on Lightroom side it went much more difficult; I was still with the evalaution version and was always requested to enter a serial number.
I asked for an advise on this forum and was suggested to uninstall Lightroom with Windows 8.1 process; I did so.
Now I try to install the regular Lightroom version, but a pop-up window called "URIHandler" is asking for the choice of a program, somewhere on my PC ?
I may add that the CC manager window is still indicated that I have an up-to date Lightroom version on my PC, which is unfortunately false; all lightroom directory has been deleted by the Windows uninstall process.
I am stuck at this stage; does someone did experience such situation, and could help ?
Thanks a lot

Might not help your specific issue but you're installing outdated software.
Try installing the current version 5.7.1

I installed Lightroom from the CC program but does not show that it installed

I went to update my Photoshop cc and lightroom 5 from the CC app on my windows 7 pc and it shows that photoshop is installed but it is asking me to install lightroom? I installed lightroom from the CC app? Should I reinstall it, it is working fine?

If it works I wouldn't worry until the next update may come out. This is probably just a lnagugae mismatch in one of the install databases or soem such thing that makes CC think it was never installed properly.

Is it possible to install Lightroom 2.0 onto a Mac Book Pro running 10.8.5?

I have a disc for LR 2.0 and I am trying to install it onto my Mac Book Pro running 10.8.5. I have tried three times and the installation has failed with a message saying contact the manufacturer.
I have managed to install Lightroom 1.0 from disc and it opens but will not allow me to create a new catalogue.
Is this just a compatibility fail?

Try installing 2.7 from here: Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh Historically, installing a download has often worked better than installing from CD.

If you still have your old Lightroom catalog from before you reinstalled Windows, you can just double-click on it and start using it again. If you didn't keep that catalog then you will have to start the import process all over again and start your processing from the beginning.

Installing Lightroom from Bundle on Second Computer

I subscribe to the Photographers' bundle consisting of Lightroom and Photoshop. I attempted to install Lightroom on a second computer (laptop) but none of the product keys I have worked. (I tried using the key in the Photoshop Lightroom Bundle as well as individual Photoshop and Lightroom licenses, though I think those are older versions.) I obtained the latest version of lightroom by downloading a trial version.

SamSchaen please choose the option to License this Software when opening Photoshop Lightroom. You will then be given the option to enter an Adobe ID. Please enter the Adobe ID tied to your membership.
If you continue to experience difficulties then please uninstall your current installation of Photoshop Lightroom and reinstall through the Creative Cloud Desktop application. You can find more details at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.

Installing Leopard (10.5) onto iMac PPC G5 (10.4.11)

Hello there,
I'm looking to upgrade my PowerPc G5 from tiger 10.4.11 to Leopard 10.5.?
I'm a bit of a dunce with this kind of thing so was wondering if I could ask a few (probably very basic) questions regarding the upgrade! They may sound a bit dumb so please bear with me...
1. Is changing operating systems easy?
2. I've been looking on ebay for a legit copy to buy but am confused as to which version to get. There seems to be 10.5.1 all the way to 10.5.6.
If I get the earlier version, can I update it automatically / for free to the latest version of 10.5.6? Or should I just buy 10.5.6?
3. On ebay, there seems to be 2 different sorts of 'install' disks I can buy. One can be bought for £10, the other type usually has a lot of bidders and goes for roughly £70 - but I'm confused as to what the difference is.
The one that goes for just £10 is described as 'APPLE Mac Computer Install / Restore DVD OSX Leopard 10.5' and comprises of 2 grey disks, kinda boring looking..
The one that goes for roughly £70 are 'Mac OSX 10.5 Leopard Retail SEALED NEW' and comprises of a far more swanky, branded, purple 'X' and comes officially boxed.
Could someone explain why the install / restore disks don't really sell for much money (and therefore, presumably, why they're not the ones I need to get if I want to upgrade to Leopard!)
I hope that all makes sense - any help is very much appreciated!
Cheers
iMac 2ghz PowerPC G5, 2GB RAM, Mac OS X 10.4.11, 20"

1. Relatively easy. There are some preparatory things to do in order to provide a smooth transition and stable upgrade.
2. Get the latest version you can find. If that's 10.5.6 then purchase it. Be sure you get only a retail package not discs with gray labels. Contact AppleCare to see if the still have copies of Leopard available. Apple sold it at $129.00 USD.
3. Stay away from anything that claims to be a "universal" installer or has gray labels. These are OEM discs and only work with the Mac models from which they came. You want to purchase only sets where the discs have black labels with a large gray "X". These would be ones like "Retail SEALED NEW." These will be more expensive. I think the £70 would be typical for this item.
The other types of discs are cheap because they may be upgraders (only work with a prior version of OS X and lack any extras provided with the retail sets.)
