Lightroom doesn't appear via creative cloud app

I have lightroom installed but it doesn't show as a creative cloud app and I have the option to install it via the creative cloud app/installer. How can I move my lightroom installation so that it's integrated in the creave cloud updating/installing system? Thanks

Do you mean that you have the Lightroom perpetual-licence version installed?  As you've found, the CC app isn't smart enough to detect that.  There is no difference between the perpetual-licence version and the CC version except the licence, but if you want to switch to the CC version, you will have to install it again via the CC installer, and yes, it will download the whole G byte of code, and install the identical code over your existing installation, keeping your existing catalog, preferences etc but changing the licence.  As the code is identical, it doesn't make any difference whether you switch to the CC version (which I did) or stay with the perpetual-licence version.  It will matter only when LR6 comes, which will be free with CC but which you'll have to pay for with the perpetual licence. 
Some people have reported that you have to remove the perpetual-licence version before installing with the CC app, but I didn't. 
Once you've done that, then you can update it (if there are any further 5.x updates) either by downloading and installing the perpetual-licence version or via the CC app, and it keeps the CC licence. 
No, it doesn't really make sense to me either.  What you need to remember is that the CC app and installer, and indeed the whole infrastructure behind CC is a bit hokey.  I think it was written by an intern.

    This has nothing to do with your pictures. As long as LR works, nothing happens. The CC app merely has lost an entry in the installer database. Would a reinstall fix it? Sure. Is it necessary? Not really (until the next version or update). So unless you have too much time to spend or something isn't working, I'm sure you can find more interesting things to do with your tiem. Otherwise use the cleaner tool and get to it:

    AE being a no-show means your system doesn't meet the requirements. Refer to the Tech Specs on the product page.

  • Apps panel doesn't show installed Creative Cloud apps

    None of my apps are showing as installed in the creative cloud application
    Adobe are aware this issue exists, but their solution doesn't work ---> Apps panel doesn't show installed Creative Cloud apps
    Can't say I'm surprised, Anybody knows how to really solve this problem?

    It seems that Adobe doesn't think it's important to check for previous apps installation, and expects the user to manually match the creative cloud language would be installed apps language
    So if you see that there is no app installed in your creative cloud just check their language settings in Preferences > Apps > Apps language.

  • Trial version of Lightroom doesn't recognise my creative cloud membership!

    I downloaded the trial version of lightroom and then joined creative cloud.  Now everytime I launch lightroom it asks me to register.  How do I get lightroom to recognise that I have creative cloud membership?

    Thanks for your quick reply.  I run creative cloud on a mac with latest operating system.  I have removed lightroom (by putting it into trash) but when I try to download through adobe download manager lightroom doesn't appear in the adobe download manager screen despite Lightroom being available to download in the apps screen.  Any further advice you could offer would be very welcome.  Thanks.

  • Is Lightroom 5 installed through the Creative Cloud App really Lightroom CC?

    I installed Photoshop and Lightroom using the Creative Cloud app. Photoshop says "Photoshop CC." Lightroom says Lightroom 5. Is it really the CC version?

    Yes, it is. But in Lightroom, go to Help > Check for updates, to make sure you're updated to the most recent update version.

  • Adobe Lightroom 5.7.1 via Creative Cloud Packager

    Hi all,
    I might have missed something here but after creating a Creative Cloud package, I install the MSI/setup.exe that was created inside the "Build" folder followed by running the ExceptionDeployer in the Exceptions folder. However, the issues are:
    EULA prompt on first launch - not ideal
    Creative cloud prompt on launch - not ideal, not everyone has a Creative Cloud account
    Updates not disabled - not such a major issue but also not idea.
    I've recently configured other Adobe products through SCCM from Creative Cloud packages and this does not appear to be consistent with the other packages (Acrobat XI Pro, After Effects, Fireworks CS6, Illustrator, Photoshop, In Design, etc...) Is this standard behaviour or am I missing a step?
    I've familiarised with these just prior to undertaking the tasks:
    Creative Cloud Help | Using Adobe Exceptions Deployer
    Creative Cloud Help | Installing Products in the Exceptions folder
    I've also gone through this:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1590920
    But I get the same outcome.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  • Just updated via the creative cloud app and now lightroom won't even load.

    As the title states:
    I've just updated via creative cloud app, ran lightroom from the standard shortcut on m desktop and got 5.7. Exited that and tried to run from the new shortcut. No load.
    Thought it might be to do with still having 5.7 installed, so uninstalled that via creative cloud app and it still wouldn't load. Noticed that the creative cloud app still showed lightroom as being installed (5.7 had disappeared on first uninstall). Selected uninstall again and this time it went from the installed section of the app to being an option to install.
    Installed new version and it won't load.
    Could someone please advise how to resolve this as I would like to be able to access my files and the changes I made.
    Thankyou in advance,
    Matt

    Please note. The solution posted to sign out of and back into creative cloud app appears to have worked
