Lightroom 5 Standalone Upgrade Download available?

Hello, my new camera body hands me a RAW format my LR4 doesn't like, so it's time to upgrade to LR5.
I cannot seem to find a purchase link to a downloadable LR4->LR5 upgrade (standalone only).  The LR product page has a link to standalone but the link is for the full product purchase.  If there's no such animal, I do see the boxed upgrade (DVD) is available at retailers and will go with that.

Thirty day free trial: Product updates
Purchase Lightroom 5: Products
You might want to hold off purchasing LR 5 because LR 6 may (or may not) be released soon, and see if the 30-day free trial gets you enough time so you don't have to buy Lightroom 5 and then also purchase LR 6. No way of knowing, though.

  • Lightroom 6 standalone upgrade does not install - does not validate the serial number

    Hi,
    I have bought (Adobe store) yesterday and downloaded Lightroom 6 standalone upgrade (I own lightroom 4).
    During the installation in Windows PC I get the following message: "We are unable to validate this serial number for Adobe Lightroom. Please contact the support"
    - the Internetconnection is fine
    - checked etc/host
    - double checked both serial numbers
    It is just impossible to install the LR6 upgrade on my Windows PC. There were no problems installing and running LR4...
    Any help would be greatly appreciated...
    Peter

  • Lightroom 6 standalone version download delivered Lightroom CC

    I just bought an upgrade from Lightroom 5 standalone (perpetual) version to Lightroom 6. The download, though, installed Lightroom CC. Is this a problem? Do both the CC and perpetual versions show the same name? Do I really have the perpetual version?

    Well, I solved my problem. I finally reached an Adobe rep through support chat.
    I guess I'm unusual. I'm in the CC Photography plan, but I have a perpetual version of Lightroom 5. I upgraded that to Lightroom 6. Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm willing to spend the $79 to have a copy of Lightroom that will still function if I decide to cancel the subscription. (I'm in Photo CC for occasional access to Photoshop and the mobile features.) Apparently Adobe didn't think anyone would do this. LR CC automatically ran when I launced the app because my Adobe ID has a CC Photography account. In order to change it to a perpetual license I had to sign out in the CC version. At the next launch the app gave me the opportunity to create a new Adobe ID and then enter the new serial number. After that it opened as Lightroom 6. I'm glad I had another email address.

  • Lightroom 6 standalone version upgrade problem from Hong Kong

    I am Lightroom 5.7 standalone version user from Hong Kong, the license of 5.7 was bundled with my Leica ME
    Lightroom 5.7 standalone version prompted me to upgrade to 6.0 and routed me to Adobe web site, but I can't pay the upgrade version due to incorrect country.
    So I tried to get my Lightroom 6 standalone version from Hong Kong Adobe. I paid around HK$680 to get Lightroom 6 standalone upgrade version. There was no platform to select and only one option "multiple platform" in download form, so I select the ONLY option and started to download. However, I got a DMG file finally and I can't install it in my Windows 7 desktop ... What can I do now?
    I am very frustrated in upgrading process from 5.7 to 6, it waste me two nights and still can get Lightroom 6 installed in my machine.

    I have a monthly subscription for PS and Lightroom.
    When I opened Lightroom this morning, it told me an upgrade was available through CC. I probably did something wrong, butI couldn't get it to download.
    I came on the forum and read a couple of discussions on your pages and found a reply that posted links to the pages where Lightroom 5.7 could be downloaded.
    I clicked the link and downloaded the update fine.
    However, now when Lightroom opens, it is asking whether I want to BUY or have a free 30 day trial and won't progress any further into the app.
    My CC icon reveals that my software is up to date but I can't get past this register screen, without selecting BUY or FREE 30 TRIAL .
    can anyone help please?

    I have just upgraded from Lightroom 5 standalone to Lightroom 6 standalone. I appear to have been automatically enrolled for a 30 day free trial of Lightroom Mobile and Creative Cloud. Reading the FAQ, it appears that after the expiry of the free trial, if I do not sign up and pay, I will only be able to view my pictures on the desktop but not edit them - surely this cannot be true. How do I un-enroll for the 30 day free trial of Lightroom Mobile and CC?

    When I was signed into Adobe (which was a requirement for installing the upgrade), Lightroom 6 told my at the top right corner that I had 30 days left of my free trial of Lightroom Mobile and Creative Cloud. In parallel with this forum posting, I am chatting with Adobe support. he is away to find out how to prevent any synching with Creative Cloud during the 30 day free trial. I do not think that Creative Cloud is an application that gets installed on your PC. I think Lightroom 6 has it built in, and can use it if if you are signed up to the Creative Cloud and Lightroom Mobile (which I am for 30 days)

    Your initial post indicated that you had a CC subscription. That seems to imply that you have subscribed. If you hadn't already purchased Lightroom 6 I would suggest that you wait until you decide about CC. You really don't need both because the Lightroom program is precisely the same except for Lightroom 6 without the creative cloud has no Lightroom mobile capabilities. But I was only trying to help.

  • Lightroom 5 Standalone Download

    If I buy the Lightroom 5 standalone download, can I put it on multiple of my computers without having to buy it again?

    You may have at most two computers running the single license, where the second computer is either a laptop or a home computer. But you can only use one copy at a time:
    Photoshop Lightroom End User License Agreement - Adobe Labs
    2.4 Portable or Home Computer Use. The primary user of the Computer on which the Software is installed may install a second copy of the Software for his or her exclusive use on either a portable Computer or a Computer located at his or her home, provided the Software on the portable or home Computer is not used at the same time as the Software on the primary Computer.

  • I got a invalid signature message when downloading the Lightroom 5.2 upgrade

    I downloaded the Lightroom 5.2 upgrade but got a message "Invalid signature" do I need to download again or is there an override to complete the installation?

    If you are having problems, it is best not to use "Upgrade" in iTunes. DOwnload the installer from the APple site:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    SAve the installer onto your desktop rather than running it from your browser.
    Then you can upgrade manually using the installer you saved.
    That won't solve your problem, but it simplifies things.
    You can often get round the invalid drive message by providing iTunes with the drive while you are installing. DO you know what comes up as drive H:, maybe a camera or external drive?
    If you don't have something that comes up as H:, maybe you could plug in a memory stick and allocate drive H: to it.
    This article about something else contains instructions for allocating a drive letter.

    I have an upgrade question. I received a notification when I connected my computer to the internet that Lightroom 5.7.1 was available it included HDR & Panoramic photo merge. I cant find these. Where do I find them.

    well that was a big waste of my time & data allowance then ...
    I live in a flaky slow internet area & I keep my photo edit machine off the internet unless & want to update something. CC is no use to me & that useless update just used up a 12th of my allowance for the year ...

  • OSX 10.7.4 Lightroom 4.1 upgrade: Revel export option no longer available...

    after a lightroom 4.1 upgrade on my Mac OSX 10.7.4, the revel export no longer displays.  although, i can attempt to reauthorize the account the option for revel remains unavailable (see screenshot):
    i've attempted to reinstall the 4.1 upgrade, but the issue persists.  please advise...

    Revel is a Publish Service plug-in, not an Export plug-in.....so I wouldn't expect to find it in the Export dialog. It's down in the Publish Services at the bottom of the left-hand panel in the Library Module.

  • Lightroom 5.7 upgrade won't run.

    LR 5.6 ran fine on my Surface Pro 2, but the upgrade ran for about 60s and froze.  Now it won't start at all.  Tried reinstalling (repair) twice; still will not start.  I hesitate to remove the program completely for fear I'll lose the purchase code.  Haven't tried reinstalling 5.6 over 5.7.

    you need your serial number.
    do you have that secured?
    if so, you can uninstall and reinstall.  if you do you may as well install lr 5.7.1 directly.,
    if not, you can recover using belarc advisor,
