LR 4.1 installed through AAM, How do I upgrade to 4.2?

This may seem like a stupid question, but I want to reduce the possibility of screwing up my current Creative Cloud installs.
Background
I have a Creative Cloud membership w/ several applications installed through AAM.  All show as "installed" as I'd expect and seem to function just fine.
AAM Application Updating
Some applications automatically install updates through the AAM -- that is, they update automatically.  For example just today PS CS6 and Premier Pro CS6 updated via the AAM update process, first notifying me via the AAM icon that there was an update, then allowing me to choose to go ahead with it -- all through AAM.
BUT, Lightroom doesn't seem to do this.  I was notified of an update to Lightroom (4.2) when I opened the application. 
The notification indicated I should download and install it.
My Questions
Should I go ahead and uninstall LR4.1, then reinstall LR from AAM?  (this assumes AAM is now updated to install LR4.2 vs. LR4.1)
-- Or --
Should I run the LR4.2 download over my existing AAM installed LR4.1?   (seems like this isn't usually a good idea)
-- Or --
Should I uninstall LR4.1, then install LR4.2 via the downloaded updater?  (seems this might cause trouble w/ AAM showing that LR is not "installed")
I've got a recently setup machine and have everything working as desired, so I'd prefer not to have to revert or clean up something caused by my not taking the appropriate updating path.  I've done several searches both via Google and here and found nothing noting the difference between LR and other AAM installed apps for updates -- so I'm left puzzling what I should be doing for this upgrade to LR4.2...
Any assistance would be most appreciated.
Thanks!
-Bonnie

Some additional info relating to my 4.1 to 4.2 upgrade and LR CC (Creative Cloud) installs as a whole is here:

So far I'm hoping that I'll be able to remove the 4.1 version without negative impact on 4.2 which is now installed in a non-default directory.
The overall upgrade process does not mirror that for other CC apps.  Instead it follows its own path.
Check the link above for more info.
Cheers,
-Bonnie

  • How do i upgrade from os x 10.5.8 leopard to the newest software?

    I would like to get the newest software for my macbook. I run system os x 10.5.8 (leopard i guess).
    Thanks for answering!
    My problem is: i dont have the app store installed. So how can i upgrade?!

    You can purchase Snow Leopard from the Apple Store ( and numerous resellers). It costs about $30, plus state taxes.
    10.6.6 up to 10.6.8 will install the "App Store" where you can purchase and download "Lion" (10.7).
    Make sure your machine meets the Lion install requirements before you buy.

  • Excel 2013 installed through 365 crashes when small row is in spreadsheet

    Hi,
    I have major issue with Excel files that makes Excel stop working when trying to print.
    Excel crashes already at the preview pane and it has nothing todo with print driver, it crashes if using the XPS driver as well.
    Using Excel installed locally through 365 (All patches applied)
    By searching for formatting error in the spread sheet I found out that there were a couple of rows that had very small height and removing those (or increasing them) made Excel not crashing when trying to print.
    This excel file is actually working on other installations of Exel 2013 but it seemes to only cause problems on the Excel 2013 installed through 365.
    When I found the problem and that it seemes only to be on the 365 Excel I also found another user with same problem but no solution. (community.office365.com/en-us/forums/172/t/168863.aspx)
    In my case I have several hundred Excel files and most of them are password protected which makes it impossible to fix the rows manually.
    It is not a problem on traditional installed Excel 2013 or earlier versions... So I would say it is a bug with the 365 version of Excel.
    Anyone out there with a solution or how to report this to Microsoft?

    I would escalate the issue and someone who is more familiar with this kind of issue to deal with this problem.
    Thank you for your feedback.

  • I have a Leopard DL disk & bought an external CD drive, but I read that I can't install through USB?

    I also have a Leopard DL disk and having the same problem with my eMac. I bought an external CD drive, but I read that I can't install through USB. Why is that? Would a USB A female to FireWire IEEE 1394 6P converter work? Or do I have to buy another CD drive with a FireWire? Please help.
    PS
    Can you also please explain how to boot from an external drive? (CD drive and storage device). Is there even a way to save the disks content to an external memory device and install it from there?

    Hi,
    Very few PPC Macs can boot from USB, most require Firewire... BUT, all 3 of my eMacs can & do boot from USB, try holding the alt or option key at bootup.
    A USB<->FW converter will not work.

  • Apps installed through App Store keep updating

    Good Morning there,
    I have three apps installed through the App Store: Xcode, iMovie and Microsoft Remote Desktop.
    Every time I turn my mac on, they show the same update again and again, regardless how many time I installed the update. Even worse, when I remove iMovie or Remote Desktop, the application is reinstalled and the the same update is proposed again and again and again ...
    How can I troubleshoot this?
    Jean

    That would make sense - I had disabled Spotlight as it interfered with my building of a few ports. I turned it back on and we will see.
    Thank you for the pointer.

    I did not deactivate a photoshop cs6 before there was a new "C" hard drive installed on my computer and a Win7 Pro fresh install too. How can I activate photoshop on the new hardware if I can't deactivate it on the old hardware that is no longer available? Any help will be appreciated.

    If it's the same machine (same CPU) there should not be any need to activate.  The actiovation is tied to your CPU.

    To replace your phone's screen costs $109US and I don't see why having Apple replace the screen would void your warranty.

  • Applications Installed through task sequence not showing up in Software Center

    In the task sequence we use for our OSD Windows 7 machine build, we have Custom-Install Application steps which install a number of of our Applications.  Each of these Applications has the "Allow this application to be installed from the Install
    Application task sequence action without being deployed" checkbox checked.  All of the Applications have the following properties set:
    Installation behavior: Install for system
    Logon requirement: Whether or not a user is logged in
    Installation program visibility: Hidden
    When a machine is built using this task sequence, all of the Applications install successfully - they show up in Control Panel\Programs and Features, and they run correctly. However, none of them show up in the Software Center. I'm not seeing anything in
    any of the logs that indicates a problem, and the Software Center remains empty even after running all the client evaluation cycle actions  
    Interestingly, if I add a couple of the newly build machines to a collection, then target deployments for the already installed Applications to that collection, after running the Machine Policy Retrieval and Evaluation Cycle the Applications immediately
    show up in Software Center as installed.
    Does anyone know if Applications installed through a task sequence do not show up in the Software Center by default, or could you give me some troubleshooting tips if this is not normal?
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    Why you deploy applications through task sequences? Task sequences are built and meant to be used with OSD, not application deployment.
    To my knowledge, if you have application install step in a task sequence and you deploy that task sequence to a collection of machines, the software center on those machines only sees the task sequence itself, not the applications inside the task sequence.
    If you want your applications to be shown in the software center, change the method of deploying stuff and deploy applications as they're are meant to.
