Lightroom for Both Platforms

Hopefully this coming week I will be purchasing an iMac for my photography needs. I also own a windows based laptop. So my intention is to purchase a box copy (not download) of Lightroom 2.5.
To date I,ve not seen Lightroom for windows only or Lightroom for iMac OS only. So the the question I ask is are both platforms supported on the one disc and can I load up Lightroom on the iMac and Lightroom on the Laptop (windows) or is this going to mean two purchases.

If you have any version of LR 2.x the up grade to the latest version is free. So if you already have a license you are good to go. The upgrade will overwrite the previous version so there is no need to uninstall.
The Mac version will not install on the PC so you can burn to a cd and Install on the Mac when it arrives.

  • A codec for both platforms

    So I've been editing this documentry for a studio:
    It was all shot on a Sony XDCam EX at 1080p 24fps and its being cut on FCP 6.1.
    Now my issue is the studio primarily works on a PC platrom and i need to know which codecs native to FCP i can render out at that will be both HQ with managable file sizes and readable on both the PC and Mac.
    Also, since this project is being put out to DVD are there any other notes you might be able to give on things like the movie's file size, pixel aspect ratio, or letterboxing.
    Thank you much!

    PhotoJPEG at 75%. This is the format that stock footage companies typically use for files that you download or get on DVDs.
    Also, since this project is being put out to DVD are there any other notes you might be able to give on things like the movie's file size, pixel aspect ratio, or letterboxing.
    File size is meaningless...time is the factor. And this depends on HOW you will be authoring the DVD. DVD SP has a max of 150 min...and there is a preset for that. Aspect ratio, letterboxing...up do you. Will people be watching it on HDTVs or regular 4:3 ones?

  • Upgrade for both mac and windows

    I use PSE 9 (Photoshop Elements) on my Windows box and PE 11 (Premiere Elements) on my Mac, (both registered).  The upgrade on the Adobe site offers download for a single platform.  After I download for one platform, can I come back somewhere and download for the other?

    Buy it in a box and you get discs for both platforms and a serial number that works on both. If you're in the US you can be sure that the full version will be cheaper than the adobe  upgrade version soon, especially around Black Friday, if you watch online retailers and big box stores.

  • Can I use both Lightroom for a Mac and PC to do the same project?

    My school uses Mac I use PC I would like to know if I start my project in light room for Mac if I can finish it in Lightroom for PC?

    Yes, as long as you have a drive that both Mac & Windows can read...LR serials are platform agnostic...

  • I currently have photoshop and I want to add Lightroom. How do I do that? Does it cost 9.99 MORE for Lightroom or 9.99 for BOTH??

    I currently have Photoshop and want to add Lightroom. How do I do that? Does it cost 9.99 MORE for Lightroom or is it 9.99 for BOTH?:

    Thanks for the clarification of price. It is not clear to me on the Creative Cloud/ Lightroom /Photoshop download page if it is possible to ADD Lightroom to an existing Photoshop contract. Are you able to help with this question?
    Thx !

  • Best Projector for MIRRORING in both platforms (OS X / WIN)

    We have computer labs that need to project (MIRROR) the instructors screen in MAC OS X or VISTA (Boot Camp). We have the Intel C2D 24" iMacs with the NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT video in some labs and QC Intel XEON Mac Pros with the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT connected to a ViewSonic VP191b in the other labs
    Would purchasing a NATIVE High Def (1920 X 1080 or 1280 X 720) serve both platforms best?

    I have Epson Projectors in my labs. Projecting on a white wall is sufficient for me.

  • Lightroom 4 multiple platforms???

    I want to buy Lightroom 4 and it's mentioned for multiple platforms.
    Can the downloaded file be used for both Mac and Windows 8???
    I'm using Win8 now but want to change to Mac within 6 moths.

    Just to understand correct - it means there are both an dmg and exe file? or
    do I have to choose when selecting the download file?

  • I have Photoshop Elements 12 for both PC and Mac (I use both). I have a new camera, Nikon D810. I downloaded the latest version of Camera Raw, 8.8. My D810 is listed as a supported camera model. However, when I try to open a raw photo in Photoshop Element

    I have Photoshop Elements 12 for both PC and Mac (I use both). I have a new camera, Nikon D810. I downloaded the latest version of Camera Raw, 8.8. My D810 is listed as a supported camera model. However, when I try to open a raw photo in Photoshop Elements, I keep getting the message "Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw. I have tried reinstalling Camera Raw many times, and have tried to open many different raw files in Elements, and still get the same error message. Please help.

    How did you try to install ACR 8.8.  The only way I know of that works with Elements is to use the Updates Choice on the Help menu.
    There are two charts supplied by Adobe that explain your RAW dilemma.  This one tells you what your camera needs:  http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html   This one tells you what version of software you need:  http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
    In your case, the Nikon D810 needs Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 8.6 or Lightroom 5.6.  (Congratulations on buying a new camera!)
    To get to that level with Photoshop Elements, you will need to replace your Photoshop Elements 12 with version 13.   Adobe caps ACR updates on version 12 at 8.5.
    The most convenient way to get around it without spending any money is to use the FREE from Adobe DNG Converter.  Download and install it from here for FREE:  http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=5855&fileID=5890  Once it is installed you can convert your D810 raw files to an Adobe RAW version with the .DNG file extension that most, if not all, versions of the various Adobe software programs can use.  That includes old versions of Photoshop, Elements and Lightroom.  DNG converter can be used as the tool to move your files from your memory card to your computer, is efficient, will convert in batches and is completely lossless.  There is no risk of any image quality degradation or RAW functionality.

  • If I buy Lightroom for PC, can I still use it if I switch to a Mac in the future?

    If I buy Lightroom for PC, can I still use it if I switch to a Mac in the future?
    I want to use Lightroom now, but don't want to pay for it again if I start using a Mac.

    Yes, LR is cross-platform.

  • Where can I get window os 2003 for unity 5.0(1) for MCS7835I1 platform?

    Dear All,
    I didn't receive any DVD on window os 2003 for unity 5.0(1) for MCS7835I1 platform for my purchase.
    I only have got the IP Telephony OS 2003.1.1 which stated in the document that it is not for Unity.
    So I tried to open case to TAC but they asked us to look from Microsoft but I believed that normal window os will not be able to install on MCS sever, am I right? So where actually can I look for this window os?
    Thanks in advance
    Jarunee

    Hi Jarunee,
    You have 2 options:
    1) You purchased the MCS-7835-I1-ECS1, I would expect this one to come with the platform configuration disk (PCD). If you did not get this you will need to contact customer service as outline in this document
    2) You purchased another flavor of this server model such as MCS-7835-I1-IPC1 or directly from IBM. This will not come with the PCD. For this you will not get a PCD and you will need to supply the operating system yourself.
    The installation guide covers both scenarios to set up Unity either with PCD or self supplied OS.

  • Can I access both platforms, window and mac with one cloud account

    can I access both platforms, window and mac with one cloud account

    Yes.
    One Cloud membership = 2 software activations: Win/Win or Mac/Mac or Win/Mac.

    "Are there any unique benefits that come with my paid membership?
    Yes, as a member of Creative Cloud, you get many benefits that you do not get when you purchase a traditional shrinkwrapped product:
    Access to both the Mac OS and Windows® versions of the desktop applications and the ability to install them on your primary computer and one backup computer. So, if you have a Mac at home and a PC at work, you can install your applications on both as long as they are not running at the same time.

  • Lightroom on both a PC and Mac

    I'm looking to buy Lightroom, however currently I am using a Windows laptop (Windows 7) but will be looking to move to a Mac in a few months.
    If i bought Lightroom for my windows machine, could I then later move the license over and use it on the Mac, or would I need to purchase a new license?
    Thanks,
    Bhaveen

    The same license will work for both. Only one purchase is needed, not two.

    That usually happens when trying to install Mac software intended for Intel-powered Macs (made in 2006 through present) on a PowerPC mac like teh powerbook (made before 2006).
    You post is a little cryptic, however. We may be of further help if you can tell us:
    <> the PowerBook's processor type (G3 or G4) and the Mac OS version, both available by doing "About the Mac" from your Apple menu.
