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.

-PinakiHi,
Thanks for the replies.
I tried the page http://www.adobe.com/in/products/photoshop-lightroom.html, and clicked Lightroom Standalone Buy Now, but its taking me to the page where it says Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 - Student and Teacher Edition, which is getting me confused, if its for Student/Teacher's only or for General public.
Thanks for suggestions!!!

Lightroom standalone version turns out to be an update???
I just purchased Lightroom (standalone version) but when installing he asks me for the serial number of a previous version wich I don't have. How can I fix this?
That request indicates that you purchased an upgrade version, not an update. Upgrades are sold at a lower price but require you to own an older version that is eligible for the upgrade. If you never owned an earlier version then you will need to purchase the full version.

When I try to upgrade to the latest version from 5.7 the price shows as 50% of the full price. Is this the way to proceed, I meant the price is too high for the upgrade. Any solution to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.$79 is the standard upgrade price. If that isn't suitable then you will have to stick with your present version.

I am having problems launching the standalone version of Lightroom 6 after I have gone through the install and activation process? Lightroom starts to open but "hangs" before any photos in the catalgue are displayed. I have contacted the chat support twice but they have not been able to fix the problem.
I went through the activation process yesterday and shut down my PC when I went to bed last evening. When I got up this morning and turned my PC on and then started Lightrom 6 (I upgraded from version 5) it started to launch but then just hung and became "not responsive". I I then uninstalled and then reinstalled the product today but the same thing happened. What is weird is that when I install from the standalone file I downloaded when I purchased the upgrade it looks like it's downloading the software again over the Internet? I have been having these problems for the last four or five days. I have contacted the chat support folks twice and they were able to get it working but whatever they did did not last as the problem reappeared again once the PC was shut down and then started up again.

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.

Usually there is a upgrade path for current users of the software at a reduced price. I dont see anything like that for Lightroom 6. Will I have to pay full price just to upgrade to the new LR6 standalone version???
The standalone upgrade is 79 US Dollars.
Go to Products, select Lightroom 6, click on Buy, select Upgrade instead of Full -
After downloading the Lightroom 5 trial version, problems installing.
After downloading the Lightroom 5 trial version, I can't get it to open for installation. Please help! FYI, I'm using Vista 7.
Gieared Lightroom 5 requires Windows 7 or later. I would recommend upgrading your operating system if you wish to use Lightroom 5. You can find the system requirements for Lightroom 5 at http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-lightroom/tech-specs.html.

Hi. I am downloading the trail versions of both Lightroom 5 and Photoshop cc. When I purchase will I be given the option to have the 'Photography' package?
Yes, of course. They are separate things - while technically identical, there are simply different licensing models, but this is not in any way apparent in the demo versions.

due to our operating system we only have 32 bit, purchased lightroom 6 and download cancelled as says needs 64 bit, is there a 32 bit version i can get, otherwise need money back
thanks for that, but having tried the various options, still not managed to organize a refund, or anything for that matter, been on hold now for 25 minutes, first time was for 17 minutes, spoke to someone who was putting me thorough, to then have automated message saying issue could not be dealt with and it then hung up! been on to live chat and this was posted: -
Chat
24 hours a day, 7 days a week
Chat is currently closed
Which would be funny if i havent already spent 3 1/2 hours trying to sort this. I am really not enjoying my adobe experience, never known such a difficult company to speak to a 'live' person. Now on hold for 29 minutes and need to go out so nothing to be done now until tomorrow. If there is a real person from Adobe reading this, i would appreciate a call/direct email to get this resolved. now 31 minutes and I have to hang up as need to go!!! aarrgghhh!!! -

Latest version of Lightroom will not download RAW files from my D750. How does one get around this? Bought Lightroom for it's ability to manage RAW files and now very disappointed.
Here is the contents of a batch file which will convert whatever raws you drop on it:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe DNG Converter" -cr7.1 -dng1.4 -p0 %*
Once you download the latest converter (release candidate from adobe labs, if necessary), and save the appropriate contents of the batch file (change path to match your system, and parameters to match your druthers, if applicable), the procedure is:
1. Drop raw files on bat file.
2. Import as usual (the DNGs).
Not too bad once you're set up (if DNG converter supports your raws).
Documentation:
http://wwwimages.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/photoshop/pdfs/dng_commandline.pd f
Note: on Mac, you may need to use "$@" (with the double-quotes) instead of %* (which is dos batch syntax), and you will need to use the full path to the converter executable file, e.g.
“/Applications/Adobe DNG Converter.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe DNG Converter”
If too much, just use the GUI instead of the bat file.

Why does InDesign (CS6) run so very, very slowly on my Mac?
Any idea what may be causing InDesign to run like it is stuck in molasses? Everything takes minutes: saving, opening a new document, opening an existing file, importing images, entering text - all slow. Any thoughts?
