Dear Tom:
I am evaluating the 30 day trial version of LR 2.1. Two questions:
1. Can I update to LR 2.2 for the balance of my trial period? Will downloading the update recognize that I have the trial version and allow me to install it? I really want to see if there are performance improvements for the Adjustment Brush and Graduated Filter for my configuration.
2. I have Photoshop CS3. Will LR 2.2 continue to work fine with CS3? Will CS3's version of Camera Raw properly render LR 2.2's images when imported as Smart Objects into CS3? (I found the LR 2.2 release notes a bit confusing on this - thanks.)
Thank you,
Mark

Lightroom 1.4.1 Now Available - Note from Adobe

Details here: http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2008/04/lightroom_141_and_camera_raw_4.html
Regards,
Tom

Just downloaded the mac version update (1.4.1) Works great EXCEPT printing has gone back to too much magenta (MacPro OS X 10.5.2, Epson 3800 printer).
I printed the same file from Lightroom 1.4.1, Lightroom beta 2.0, Aperture, & Adobe Photoshop CS3. Prints were identical from all except Lightroom 1.4.1. (Used print settings for no printer color management, profile pro38 PLPP, printing to Epson stylus pro 3800 printer)
With Lightroom 1.4.1 I get way too much magenta - not as bad as with 1.3.1, but still not usable.
Interestingly, the soft-proof for 1.4.1 looks good, but it does not print that way.
So, if I want to use Lightroom, I need to print elsewhere, or go back to 1.4 or wait for the 2.0 upgrade.

Camera Raw 5.2 and DNG Converter Available - Note from Adobe

Well, I managed to locate and download both the ACR 5.2 and the DNG 5.2, but it was a bit of a challenge. I have a couple of comments regarding the DNG installation.
As a sometime OS beta tester, I have developed a habit of keeping C:\ for the operating system only. When a new OS or beta is issued, I just format C: and install the new OS. I try to keep applications off C:. It is hard, though, with all the default installations. It would be nice to have the option to install DNG.exe in my applications partition.
My workflow involves importing NEF's from the memory card to a folder, and at the same time converting those NEF's to DNG's and putting them in a different folder in a different partition. Both these NEF's and DNG's are archived. A copy of the DNG's are used as working images. The virtue of DNG's is that there are no sidecar files to keep track of when exporting images. Unless I really mess up, I never go back to the NEF's again. I guess that I am an "outlier" too. I guess that this is essentially the 5 - A "double DNG-only" workflow, using type 2, the native-DNG-DNG system. This is discussed in detail by Barry Pearson at http://www.barrypearson.co.uk/articles/dng/safety.htm#personal
I do like the camera profiles. I previously have used the Fors script. My Nikon D200 lacked red and the Fors script fixed that. Not surprisingly, different profiles are appropriate for different image types. Is there any way of determining the methodology and reasoning between the different profiles, and what specific problems each one is designed to correct. This might permit better matching profiles to image types, with less trial and error.

Hi All:
based on the good work of Dorin above (post #19), he did a timeline of various releases of Lightroom from Adobe and it shows that from "version x RC" to "final release version" was around 1 month.
as it is already exactly one month now, it must not be too much longer till they will release the LR2.3 Final Version.
As for what Robert said in post #23, well, there's never any "guarantee" on a problem-free piece of software, or, for that matter, anything one purchases or anything in life, actually!! Yet, one can make educated extrapolations, right? From the range of comments thus far on LR2.3RC, it appears that it is the best version yet of LR2.x. This leads to the conclusion that it is probably a "good bet" that this version will likely lead to the least amount of issues, right? Maybe not "zero issues", but most likely, the least amount of issues from the various LR2.x versions available.
So by waiting, say, merely 1-3 more weeks approximately, i can go directly from LR1.4 (which i've been using for many months) to LR2.3 Final Release Version. It seems like it is a prudent and conservative move or plan.
What do the good folks here think, please?
thanks in advance for helping me to mull this over. If i were a PC expert, i'd be thinking about this less. as i'm just a somewhat competent user, and not a whiz, i thought that a bit of care and planning it out intelligently can possibly reduce frustrations later.

Lightroom 2.1 Release Candidate - Note from Adobe

Lightroom 2.1 has been posted as a release candidate to Adobe Labs:

Blog post on the topic here:

From that post: The Lightroom team would like to thank all of the photographers on the Lightroom User to User forum who helped provide constructive insight into the issues that we have fixed in this release.

Much better performance right from the start. I appreciate the speed improvements--- no beach balls yet. I don't think I am alone when I say that the beach ball is a real drain not only on time spent, but the stress of "what changes were saved" , "is this going to crash and corrupt my database" and "maybe I do miss my darkroom". The rest of the problems don't seem to bother me as much, and those seem to be fixed too.
Occurs to me that we should have one sticky thread for single posts on bugs and separate ones for troubleshooting them.
Anyhow, great to have my Lightroom back running like before with more tools than LR1.4.

What about Lightroom 1.4?
Trust me, we haven't forgotten about the photographers who are awaiting a replacement to the Lightroom 1.4 update that we released and subsequently pulled from Adobe.com. Lightroom 1.4.1 and Camera Raw 4.4.1 are currently undergoing additional testing before we release them in the first half of April. Thank you for your patience.

wow - the import really steams. Have just got one question however before I give this version a serious workout and that is just how independent/dependent is version 2 from version 1.3.1?
Perhaps I misunderstood, or read it wrong, but I thought that both versions were completely independent of one another e.g. I could give version 2 a workout whilst still using version 1.3.1 for my serious work. However, having now imported 30 test images (copies) and have taken one image into develop I notice that all the presets that I had in version 1.3.1 now appear in the presets panel. For the life of me I can't understand how this is happening because the catalogue for 1.3.1 is on another drive altogether (drive D) whilst I have v2.0 installed on Drive C and have LR install the catalogue by default. At least this way I know both versions and their catalogues are in two entirely different places and more importantly, I know just where they are. My concern is that if it doesn't work out with version 2 and I choose to remove it from my system will it take all the presets along with it.

Please help me with downloading lightroom. i purchased it online from adobe but its not downloading

please help with downloading lightroom. i purchased it online from adobe and it isn't downloading.

if you follow all 7 steps (here, http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html) you can dl a trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/lightroom-5-ddl-comparison-vs-lr4.html
and activate with your serial.
if you have a problem dl'g, you didn't follow all 7 steps. the most common error involves failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).

I recently updated to 10.8.2 and now my notes from my iPhone no longer appear in my mail nor do my calendar appointments. Is there any way to change it so they will appear?

If it has the same (bad) behavior on two different systems then there is a very good chance that the drive is toast.
BTW you'll get better response to your questions if the question actually reflects the problem you are having. In this case it would have been better to say you couldn't access the drive rather then that it doesn't show on the desktop.

Lightroom 1.4 - Note from Adobe

I am in the process of removing Lightroom 1.4 builds from Adobe.com and recommend that those who have updated to Lightroom 1.4 revert to Lightroom 1.3.1. I will have further information shortly but I understand that there are a number of users on this forum who are seeking immediate clarity on the update issues directly from Adobe. I will post another forum topic when additional information has been posted to the Lightroom blog: http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/

Well, I can be a P.I.T.A. However, that is generally over missing or weak
features. Software today is complex and the code base is large. I can fully
understand when a bug crops up. Adobe is only human. I am also impressed
that they recalled it to fix it, instead of saying "well get it next
update." Bravo Adobe!
Now back to P.I.T.A. mode! :)

Camera Raw 5.4 RC available on Adobe Labs - Note from Adobe

Do follow the instructions. I followed my previous habit of setting the old Camera Raw plugin aside, prior to installing the new, in case I wanted to revert. Apparently the installer refers to the existing plugin to decide what language settings to use - I ended up with all ACR buttons and menus displaying in an Asian character set.
Then after manually restoring the 5.3 version to its rightful place, I had to jump through some hoops before PS or Bridge could see it. Deleting prefs did nothing, nor did rebooting. I finally got it back to sanity by running cameraprofiles.mpkg from the 5.3 download. However, now I couldn't rerun the 5.4 installer, as it insisted 5.4 was already installed. I was finally able to get the 5.4 installer to work, only by rerunning the PS CS4 installer to reinstall CS4 (no need to uninstall.)

Hi,
Just downloaded v1.4 and tried it.
1. Don't know what exactly has been changed there, but somehow I have impression that now (using Camera Calibration) it's easier to get colors similar to those from Canon DPP (Standard Picture style) -either using ACR 3.1 or 4.4 (for Canon 350D). Is it only my imagination?
Btw. What's the difference between using ACR 3.1 and 4.4? -short explanaition will do :-)
2. When in Develop module, I've opened menu Edit>Preferencess... choosed Presets tab and clicked on "Store presets with catalog" checkbox several (six or more) times (~2seconds time interval). After doing that (and nothing else) Lightroom freezed and became "Not Responding...".
I use WinXP Pro SP3 on AMD64 3000 with 1Gig RAM. I used new generated Catalog, containing 95 photos (mixed cr2 and jpg).

Bogdan
