Lightroom 5 and MAC OS X 10.7.0 issues

I'm trying to load LIghtroom5 onto my computer but it's telling me I need Mac OS X 10.7.0 or greater to install. If I run available updateds for my computer the version I am getting is Mac OS X 10.6.8. Do I need to go elsewhere for this download? Is it something I need to pay for?

LR 5 won't run in OS X 10.6.8.
You need to update to at least 10.7.x (I suggest 10.7.5).
You should have read the LR 5 system requirements.

  • Flex 3 and Mac os 10.6.3 Scrolling Issue

    I am trying to understand why I am getting Scrolling vertically and horizontally on my VBox and HBox container even though I explicitly code it as verticalScrollPolicy="off" horizontalScrollPolicy="off". The funny thing is that it works correctly as I want on my Intel Boxes with various browsers to not show any scrolling, but as soon as I view it on the mac I get the scrolling issues.
    Anyone know if they experienced this problem and any workarounds.
    -- Thanks

    Not sure what's happening with your code, you'll have to post an example that shows this happening to you.
    On OS X 10.6.4 and Flex 3.5, it works as it should.
    I made this as an example and view source is enabled.  I have two VBoxes, one with scrolling disabled and one with it enabled.

  • Xserve Raid- Windows and Mac servers with split RAID speed issues

    First, thanks to those that provided info on setting up the RAID for windows to see (2TB+)! I made the needed slices and Windows made a dynamic 2.27TB volume from the two slices.
    Now, I am noticing a speed drop on writing from mac clients to a Win2003 server connected via FC (optical) to the 2nd RAID controller (optical transceiver installed 2-4Gb/s).
    My Networking (via Raid Admin) setting is Automatic for Speed and Topology.
    My Performance is set same for Lower and Upper controllers:
    Write cache ON
    Host Cache Flushing OFF
    Drive Write Cache ON
    Steady Streaming OFF
    8 stripes/512KB/Disk
    On the Windows end, drive is there, no shadowing or caching (for offline).
    All drive modules are green (no yellow) and drives are new on that RAID (#8-14)
    When copying files (1Mb to 10Mb), it takes seconds to minutes to write!
    (I also noticed my controller caches are 128MB; can/should these be upped?)
    I would also ask if I add a Sanbox switch so that I can add a FC tape drive, is there any docs/links recommended to ensure I've setup properly (Arbitrated loop versus pt-2-pt, transceivers, cable lengths...)?
    Thanks for any help!

  • I use an external hard drive for my Lightroom library and I notice that all the images shown on there are DNG. On my MAC hard drive I have images shown as NEF. I desperately need to free up space on my hard drive, can I safely delete these NEFs?

    however, I do point out that obtaining an additional hard drive and not throwing anything away seems a preferable solution to me.
    heidie22, dj_paige has a very good point there. I would not through away the NEF files; I would archive them to a external drive.
    By the way, I am assuming that converting RAW files to DNG is a decision you have made and not an accident.

  • Can I use Lightroom on my mac and my pc at the same time with only one subscription?

    Hello everyone,
    for five months now I have a Creative Cloud subscription for Lightroom and Photoshop. Till now I was just using it on my PC. Now I've bought me a MAC and would like to install Lightroom on the MAC either. Do I need a second subscription for MAC or can I use my subscription on the MAC and PC simultaneously?
    thx for feedback

    If you are asking if you can be running the subscription software on the two machines at the same time, the answer to that is no.  Per your license you can only be using one of the installations at a given time.
    If you are asking if you can have the software installed and capable of being used on both machines then the answer is yes... you just cannot have both machines in use  running the subscription software at the same time.

  • I use a mac ios and shoot raw in a cannon 5d mark ii and shortly upon import of my images lightroom darkens and changes my images. This has happened before but not every time. The strange part is my last shoot had the same camera setting but this did not

    I use a mac ios and shoot raw in a cannon 5d mark ii and shortly upon import of my images lightroom darkens and changes my images. This has happened before but not every time. The strange part is my last shoot had the same camera setting but this did not happen. The images i have now i can not use after lightroom has automatically altered them even if i try editing back to how they looked upon import

    First thing to do is to change the default camera profile applied in Lightroom to camera standard (assuming that you shoot Canon or Nikon). Also make sure that your camera is NOT set up to use any of the HDR modes. Nikon calls those Active Dynamic Lighting. On Canons you often see things like highlight priority mode or "Auto Lighting Optimizer". Make sure that the picture style is set to standard and that for newer Canons the HDR mode is turned off. Most of the HDR modes simply underexpose the image and then add an instruction in the raw file to compensate for this to prevent highlights from being blown out. This causes more noise in the shadows and if you know what you are doing there is no point to this as you should simply expose correctly and get the highest quality raw.
    Lastly, make sure that in Lightroom you have not checked "Apply Auto Tone Adjustments" in Preferences->Presets. This should make the default rendering of the raw files the same as the in-camera jpeg (what the camera shows on the back even if you shoot raw) but still give you all the latitude of raw files.

  • Finder is still crashing with Lightroom 1.3 and Mac OS X 10.5.1

    The problem reported with Lightroom 1.2 and Mac OS X 10.5 (Finder crashes when trying to read a JPG whose metadata contain some Lightroom specific development settings) is still present with both updates... Any hope Adobe would provide us with a way to fix existing pictures/metadata?

    The Lightroom XMP data for snapshots, which is totally valid XMP data makes Leopard barf because Apple's implementation of XMP in Leopard is not capable of parsing the snapshot XMP. This is most totally Apple's fault...and only Apple can fix it...
    The Photoshop CS3 & Leopard issue with text entry in certain tools is another Apple Leopard fault that Apple will need to fix...
    There is also an issue with Epson print drivers running under Leopard and Lightroom 1.3 where printing is not picking up the correct data and print come out light...the same drivers will work with CS3 because CS3 is using the older, none Leopard pipeline. Also note that CS3 will NOT be able to print out using the Leopard 16 bit pipeline while Lightroom 1.3 will be able to...as soon as Epson revs their drivers...
    Look, Leopard has introduced MAJOR changes well above and beyond the marketing features Apple promotes....eveybody is scrambling...but to Adobe's credit, they HAVE responded well and quickly to those issues Adobe can fix. Those Adobe CAN'T fix will have to be fixed by the companies responsible....

  • Lightroom Slideshows and iTunes Music on Mac?

    How do I use an iTunes Playlist on my Mac as audio for a Lightroom Slideshow?  I have the latest Lightroom and iTunes versions.

    See the above discussion. I believe (but to be honest, I am no expert. I am trying to figure out a different, but related question) that you can reformat your iPod to the FAT32 system on your PC, then go back to your Mac, use it as a hard drive, and transfer your songs to your PC that way. Once in the FAT32 format both PCs and Macs will read the iPod disk.

  • Adobe Lightroom 4 for Mac and Windows, can I install the same license on both systems or only 1?

    I just purchased 1 full license of Adobe Lightroom 4 and I can see there's an installer for Mac and Windows.
    does it mean I can install on both systems or my license is only valid for 1?
    Thank you

    Yes, LR is cross-platform and you can install it on both systems.

    As being a novice with my Mac Pro computer and Cannon 5D mark 3 camera my issue has arisen while over the last year and half, when down loading into my Photoshop Lightroom 4, my 18,000  photograph were not catalogued correctly, or hardly at all, so now over several months time my photos have apparently been redirected in my libraries and have begun not appearing in their allotted frames next to their number in the library they are in. they also have a small question mark (?) next to the photo space. The frames are blank but indicates that there is a photo there. The majority of photos are blank but about a tenth are seen . i apparently need to retrace where they went but do not know how to get that done . can someone help please?

    It would be difficult to tell you where to begin. If you moved photos around to different folders and didn't use Lightroom to move them, that would cause Lightroom to lose track of where they are. You have to remember that your images are not "in" Lightroom. Lightroom simply points to them wherever they are on your computer. All of the location information as well as the changes that you make to your images is stored in the catalog, which is a database. This catalog is central to the operation of Lightroom, and it's essential that you understand how it works and how to make it work for you. For all of those images that have "?" On them, or the folders that have the same, you will have to go through the process of locating them and showing Lightroom where they are located. With 18,000 images, and many of them missing, it might just be easier to start a new catalog and organize things properly from the beginning in that catalog.

  • Lightroom 5 and ... well Mac OS X 10.5.8

    Hello I bought Lightroom 5 and tryied to install it, untill realised I have Mac OS X 10.5.8 on my i Mac. How can I update my system to be able to support Lightroom 5? Thank you.

    Maria Bobrova you will want to contact Apple to request an upgrade.  You can find more information regarding the current version of Mac OS 10.9 at Apple - OS X Mavericks - Do even more with new apps and features.  I would recommend reviewing the technical specifications to confirm that your Mac is able to run the current version of Mac OS.
    Finally you can find the system requirements for Lightroom 5 at Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 for Mac, Windows, PC – Tech specs.

  • Lightroom and MAC Pro (intel) after Snow Leopard Upgrade?

    I have heard several horror stories about serious operational problems with Lightroom and MACs after they have upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard.
    I have been trying to get to the bottom of it, but all I have been able to glean is that yes, there are some issues, but I can't find out cause and effect.
    Since I heard of the things I have not opened any Adobe Software, and won't until I can be assured that I too don't experience the same horror story.
    Are there any people out there that have experienced any of these problems?  If so, do you know what caused them, and, more importantly, how to fix them?
    Thank you for any help and direction you can provide.

    Some users have reported that Edit in Photoshop CSx functionality is partially broken (e.g. Open as Smart Object launches Photoshop, but image doesn't actually open).
    With Photoshop (and many other applications) there are reports of the application crashing when the user tries to save a JPG file.
    Source of problem? Snow Leopard
    Is it really the problem that some would have you believe? Nope
    Are there any workarounds? Ask Apple
    BTW: I use Snow Leopard and don't have a problem recommending it to others.

  • Lightroom 4 on MAC and Photoshop on Creative Cloud?

    Hi,
    I've purchased a copy of Lightroom 4 and it is installed locally on my mac and I'm looking at subscribing to photoshop via the creative cloud service. I don't to subscribe to the whole suite.
    Is the integration between the locally installed product and photoshop in the cloud the same as the integration between two locally installed products?
    For example can I still select two photos in lightroom and select merge to panorama in photoshop or do I need to have the creative cloud version of lightroom as well?
    Thanks!

    Adobe Cloud apps are locally installed (other than the web based services).
    The difference between Cloud and perpetual licenses is the licensing mechanism.
    Adobe ID for Cloud (Photoshop's Cloud activation mechansim calls home via the internet each month to check your membership is current) and serial number for perpetually licensed apps.
    The code in the perpetually licensed and Cloud software (both installed on your local machine) operates identically regardless of how you've bought the software.

  • Possible to use Photoshop CC on TabletPc A and Pc B  &  Lightroom CC on Pc B and Mac C

    I have read that CC Programms are useable at 2 Computers.
    but is it Possible to use Photoshop CC on TabletPc A and Pc B and Lightroom CC on Pc B and Mac C, all on one Account / License?
    So Do the installations count or could it be installed just on two devices really?

    Ok, that means the Computer is activated for all purchased CC Programs, not each Programm individual?
    yes
    How fast / easy is this sign in, just Name & Pass or something more complicated?
