Lightroom 4 upgrade extracting issues

Hello,
Recently purchased Lightroom 4 upgrade (download version). Currently using Lightroom 3.6 64bit.
Downloaded successfully, but when tried to extract got this message:
A. Checked to make sure, but I am logged in as Administrator
B. Checked the write permissions for the destination folder (Desktop) and write permission is allowed.
C. I have >30GB available on my SSD HD. I can't imagine it needs more space.
Thoughts? What should i try next.
Thanks for your time.

Thanks for the quick response.
Looked at the Temp folder and all folders appear to have write permissions enabled.
Also only using MSE which I turned off and double checked to make sure Adaware wasn't running in the backround. No help. Still the same extracting issue.
I am not sure about the SSD. I think it is rooted properly? Picture attached.

Can I buy a Lightroom upgrade (from LR3) with a perpetual licence and a student discount? If so, which page do I need? Thanks.

I am trying to buy a Lightroom upgrade (from LR3) with a perpetual licence and with a student discount.
If I go the student discount route on the web U get taken to the 'cloud' options which I don't want.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
PS Is the upgrade worth it in any case??

I believe there are NO upgrades for Student and Teacher editions but you can see here: Products
If the price is the same as an ordinary upgrade you are probably better off buying that because it can be upgraded in the future.

Lightroom upgrade will not load when it is opened.

When I load Lightroom upgrade to 4.0 and try to open the upgrade it hangs during loading of the catalog. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times and the upgrade does not work. I'm running Win 7 64 bit.

It sounds like the software equivalent of a heart attack in old age! My prescription would be LR 5.7 used daily.

Lightroom Upgrade at a client - sucess? - keyword problem deal breaker

Hi
Just a small report, on how upgrading a client's LR 2 catalog went.
Background: The client is a professional photographer specialized on garden photography. Her customers are gardening and lifestyle magazines who publish her photos regularly as illustrations to various articles. She has a professional Canon EOS 1Ds MK III equipment and shoots exclusively raw. In a shoot around 300 to 1000 images are shot. The Lightroom catalog has around 20,000 images currently.
In Lightroom she uses mostly DAM and some basic development features, images are delivered either as raw of as JPEG images to the clients. Keywording is especially important. She has an extensive hierarchical list of plants most of them multiword keywords with spaces, and lots of other keywords indicating if images were sent to clients and other stuff.
The upgrade went just very well. I exported the catalog to a new intermediate catalog without previews, installed LR3 and imported this intermediate catalog into LR3 generating new previews from scratch. The hardware is modest, and some functional tests (especially switching images in develop, spot tool, and adjustment brushes) revealed that everything performs well enough.
Then she asked me where she would have benefits from using the new version. And then I told the whole benefit story, which can be read everywhere.
- New process version, better details and noise reduction. She asked where she can see it? Hmm, I switched to 1:1 view changing the process versions, not really much to see on Canon 1Ds Mk III files. Even with noisier files, it was hard to tell, what has actually changed. So only a 4:1 view very tiny changes were visible. The impact on her business? Near to nothing as she does not print large. The differences would hardly be seen in the magazine prints.
- Lens corrections and perspective control: does not really matter in garden photography, but she could see some occasional usefullness.
- Publish services: no real need for it
- Print packages: nope
- Slightshow improvements: no use for it
- Performance improvements: nothing visible
- Effects: completely superfluous
- New import dialog: at first glance a hindereance, as she has to get used to it
Then she asked: did they correct the keyword handling, when entering keywords witrh spaces? (You know the nasty bug, where keyword completion is broken at keywords with spaces). We checked (I knew it wasn't fixed), and of course she was heavily disappointed. Thus, after 2 years of development nothing new for her, keyword bug not fixed? Of course she said, that I should tell her, when keyword completion works, then and only then would she consider an upgrade.
So, despite all the bells and whistles about the new version, I doubt that for many photographers the benefits are really so overwhelming in the real world. It is a pitty that Adobe continues to neglect the DAM features (some fresh ideas for client management would be great), that existing features aren't consequently implemented (esp. the possibilities to query the catalog, and keywording), and that existing bugs are constantly ignored and not fixed.
So, please Adobe, get keyword completion fixed for keywords with spaces immediately !!! This is what professionals need. A catalog without reliable DAM features, renders the catalog concept to a great extend useless. Please listen!
Disclaimer: As I am not a professional for me the situation is not the same. I just report my experience I had, with a photgrapher, who needs a proper asset management. I recommended Lightroom to her because of the overall package (she moved from Cumulus), so I feel a little obliged to help her in this issue. In my case, as a user of a modest Lumix G camera system, I would consider the IQ benefits more signifcant. I don't know, if this is a general observation.
Kind regards

So the over-riding conclusion from your experience with just one photographer is that Lightroom is 'useless', and this compels you to demand, in bold type, that Adobe must listen?
That Lightroom has issues and areas for ongoing development is obvious, and Adobe won't dispute this. But rants like yours add nothing and are unhelpful. Julie's response is extremely tactful and far more moderate than your post deserves.
Dear Mr. Webster
I think when you post, you should definitely change your tone. Julie simply answered my original post by acknowledging the problem, your accusation that I did not use appropriate "netiquette" is ridiculous. Posts like yours are a real problem of this forum.
I simply gave a user story example to show that not for everybody the shiny advertised new features provide real benefits and that paying attention to a thorough implementation of features can be equally important. I think Julie has recognized this. And the issue is nothing for ongoing developments. Lightroom supports keywords with spaces, so it has to be done consequently. Keywording is essential for DAM. If keywording gets too tedious or leads to wrong keyword assignments, then DAM is really pointless.
The intention of my post was to point Adobe to an apparently small problem, which has quite a big impact to people, who depend on good DAM features. The issue is nothing new, existed since the first release of Lightroom, but nothing was done about it, unfortunately. Now that Lightroom addressed keywords with spaces even with a new preference setting, it was fair to assume, that they had done something about it with care. This isn't so obviously. The issue was discussed in previous threads, but did not get any visible notice from Adobe. I am glad that this has changed now with Julie's post.
In no way did I say that Lightroom is useless or even that I regard it to be so. I merely said that the catalog concept is to a great extend (not completely) useless, if its implementation is sloppy. DAM starts with data entry and only after doing this, you can use it to your benefit. Therefore it has to be efficient, which currently is not. Lightroom is criticized by a large number of users that it is forcing them into a catalog system instead of just providing access to the file system. Long existing bugs like this, likely proves them right in their view.
The competition (I mean complete workflow solutions) is not really better than Lightroom with respect to DAM features, however, my take is, that the developers should be equally ambitious with the quality of the catalog system as they are with IQ, especially if the achievements in IQ are apparently less relevant to owners of high end camera systems. (I could be wrong with the last statement, but it would be interesting to hear if others have similar observations).
Kind regards

Lightroom 5 download issue!

I Have a mac computer and im trying to download the free trial but when i click on the file in the downloads i keep getting this: "Couldn't open "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.pkg". and it stating it can not be completed. Is it not compatable with my mac book pro?
Or is it because i have lightroom 2 on my computer not and its causing an issue?
Should i delet light room two and try to reinstal it aging?
Im normaly a pretty computter savy person but this just seem to be not working!

Adobe does not sell it. You may be able to find one for sale on Amazon, but be careful you are buying from Amazon not somewhere that is just selling pirated software.
Is there a reason you can’t run Mavericks, which I think it a free upgrade?

Lightroom 6 update issue

I have Lightroom 5 on my iMac and have just purchased the update to LR6.
The email that confirms my purchase informs me that I've purchased Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 6 (Mac/Win,English) and gives me a serial number.
However, when I follow the download link I'm offered three versions of Lightroom, Mac/Win English, Windows Multiple Languages and Mac Multiple Languages.
The Mac/Win English download has my serial number against it the the next column states that the download is "not applicable".
The other two show no serial number and offer a download link. In desperation I tried the Mac Multiple Languages link and this downloaded, but it will not install, stating that I don't have an applicable product on my Mac to upgrade from.
I'm stuck.
How do I download and install the product that Adobe tell me I've purchased?
Brian

I finally found the solution to the problem I was having. I don't know if this will help anyone, but I'll put it out there anyway. As I said in my previous comment, in previous upgrades I was having problems with Lightroom not launching if I performed the upgrade from within the CC App Manager and Adobe had provided an alternate link to download the upgraded version separatly. The result was (because I didn't clean up after these upgrades) was that I had multiple versions of Lightroom on my system (Windows 7): Ver 5.4 and 5.7. In the start menu, these displayed as separate lanuch icons including the version in the txt.
Yesterday, when I decided to take the chance and upgraded Lightroom from within the CC App Manager, it performed the upgrade, said it was up to date, but I did not notice that it created another version of Lightroom WITHOUT any of the version numbers in the title. This version was buried down in the "All Programs" folder of the Windows 7 start menu.
TODAY, still a little frustrated, I opened the CC App Manager, It still said up to date. I launched Lightroom (from the old 5.7 icon, or rather a shortcut to one of my existing lcats which was tied to this old version) I went to the "Check for Updates" and it said new software was available and showed the new features available in ver 6. I'm not sure why it didn't show this info yesterday but there it was. I clicked the Download button which took me to the lightroom page on Adobe. There was a download button near the top right. It was there yesterday, but all it did was download a CC App Manager install file. So, I went ahead and did the install again, but it just went directly to opening the App Manager. I signed out of the App Manager, and signed back in....still no apparent change.
THEN, AND HERE'S HOW I FOUND OUT THE UPGRADE HAD ACTUALLY BEEN INSTALLED: I ACCIDENTALLY clicked on the Lightroom Icon itself in the CC App Manager. To my surprise, it launched the window showing a list of my catalogs asking me which one I wanted to open. I didn't even realize I had clicked the icon. I chose one of my older, less valued catalogs to be opened...viola! It said I needed to upgrade the catalog. Wow! I cancelled out because I didn't want to upgrade without understanding what was going on. I tried to launch that catalog as I would usually do and it opened right away in version 5.7.....what the hell?!?! Then I had the thought that maybe I had accidentally clicked that icon, so I manually made a backup copy of that catalog and it's previews folder in Explorer. I clicked directly on the Lightroom icon in the CC App Manager. It opened the "choose catalog" window again. I choose the catalog, upgraded it and it opened the upgraded catalog IN VERSION 6. Wow!!
So, being Windows, not Mac, I had to associate the lrcat file type with the NEW Lightroom.exe file, I've upgraded the remaining catalogs and I'm good to go. So, apparently, my previous frustration comment about Adobe maybe fixing the upgrade issue is no longer a valid comment....they have fixed that problem, for my situation at least.
Like I said I don't know if this helps anyone else, but I thought I'd put it out there.

Lightroom 3 exporting issue: exported JPGs come out with much more noise than original edited files

Hi all,
My first post here so nice to meet everyone. I've been having some issues with exporting in Lightroom recently. It appeared to happen quite out of the blue. Sometimes when I export my edited .cr2 files as jpgs (in srgb), at a good quality (no less than 85), some of resulting jpgs seem to have exposure higher and/or a horribly large increase in the amount of visable noise. It seems many of the photos which this occurs in have pretty high settings for fill light, but even still, the noise is not visable in lightroom while editing the metadata linked .cr2.
I thought it might be the problem that I'm viewing the final exported jpgs in preview, but I also tried adding them back into the catalog and they look just as off. I just upgraded to 3.3, but it seems to be having the same issue. If anyone can please help, it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

No sharpening at all during my export, Ian. Sometimes I sharpen for screen at a standard strength, but I turned it off when I started seeing the extra artifacts but the results of the exports remains basically the same with or without sharpening.
However when I import it seems my photos already have some sharpening on them in the develop module. The settings there are sharpening = 25, radius = 1, Detail = 25, masking = 0. I honestly rarely mess with the sharpening, so I guess I skipped over those settings during the countless hours I have worked with LR! But I assume those are normal post import numbers, correct? I never apply development settings during import, that's why I say that. Thanks for keeping up the conversation and brainstorming Ian! Anyone else also free to chime in.

My CC apps are not validating and Lightroom upgrade is requesting a serial number which is claiming to be invalid

I updated bith Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5 yesterday and now they both do not work. Photoshop has been asking for activation for the last month and I have no connectivity issues on my laptop. Also Lightroom is requesting a serial number which when entered from my Adobe account claims to be unable to validate. This is not good enough as I use both applications for work and soon will not be able to usea service I am paying for. Is there a solution? Has anyone else encountered these problems after upgrade?

Photoshop Lightroom Camera Raw Issues

I just purchased Lightroom 5 (not the CC version, I bought mine through Amazon). I was editing a photo in Lightroom and wanted to open it in Photoshop. A message said that Camera Raw 8.2 was required and when the photo opened in PS some of the LR editing wasn't there. So I tried to install the most current Camera Raw (8.7) and my Mac says it's installed, but Photoshop still indicates that the older plugin is there and my issues with Lightroom Photoshop compatibility continue. I use PS 5. How can I solve this problem?? I've closed and reopened everything.

"Photoshop 5 doesn't even have ACR."
Well that's odd because the Camera plugin I have says Adobe Photoshop Camera Raw 6.7. Regardless, I suspected it was because of my PS 5. Is there no way I can upgrade to PS 6 without going to CC? Because I think it's pretty ****** to stop selling the software and make Adobe customers pay an ongoing fee.

EHP4 Upgrade Extraction phase

Our EHP4 upgrade is in Extraction phase.
The system is being upgraded from ERP 6.0 SR3 to EHP4 SP level 05.
The system is running on SUSE Linux version 10, x86_64 with Max DB version 7.7.04.32.
During the Extraction phase, the EHP Installer keeps running in the phase PREP_IMPORT/RUN_GENPUTTBSHD for hours together (6 hours in our case) without getting finished and not throwing any error messages as well.
Does any one have any insight into where the issue could be.
Any help is highly appreciated.

11.2.0.0 upgrade- performance issue when commits

We have upgraded our data warehouse system from 10.2.0.4 for 11.2.0.2. After upgrade ETL system has performance issue. Extraction is fine because we compared the explain plans before and after upgrade. However, loading is taking very long. In loading there is a commit after every 1000 records, that why its slow. Even when we import data with commit=y option its very slow. Is there any know issue on this?
Any help pl?
Thanks

We are solaris 10. ETL job on 10.2.0.3 was taking 2 hours and now its taking 11 hours.
I beleive commit is a issue because
1. Source query (Extraction) has same explain plan.
2. Source database is still on 10.2.0.3
3. Servers and network is same for 10g and 11g.
4. I already experienced COMMIT=y performance issue in import.
Thanks
