LR4 PC System requirements

Adobe advise that to use RAW files on my new Nikon D800, I have to upgrade from LR3 to LR4. However I would like to use current PC which is running XP pro and Intel Core 2 Duo  2.80 GHz. Can LR4 run on this set up or do I need to use my desktop Mac ( transfer of files will be a pain ) and I have no facility for two monitor operation.

The tech specs for LR4 can be found on the page linked below.  XP is not listed.

    Have got a Windows Vista basic and had run a a trial version of LR4 on it - just purchased an LR5 without checking out the complete system requirements. Can I get a complete download of LR4 so that the money I've spent is not wasted. I am not interested in upgrading to Windows 7 currently.

    There are still retail packs of LR 4 to be found out there - for example, on EBay. It's just important to be careful whether it's a full version, an upgrade, or a student + teacher version. And to be certain it's genuine, and has a serial number which has never been activated before. The serial number that you get with that, should work with any 4.x version of LR, on either MacOS or Windows. And it will almost certainly be heavily discounted compared with the previous price direct from Adobe.
    Of course the other way is to upgrade to Windows 7 SP1, which should also be available discounted, and thus eke out the life of an older PC (I personally would not go to Win8 in such a case). Maybe pick up some RAM also, if that's a problem, provided you can do so cheaply (since that will be simply thrown away in due course, when you get a newer PC),
    Using LR4 instead of LR5 you do miss out on a few nice features, as well as potentially the Raw support and lens profiles for more recent camera equipment.
    LR 4 is obsolete as far as Adobe is concerned. They will not sell a Serial Number for it.

  • System requirements v Optimized requirements for LR4 on a Mac

    Likw many people I'm struggling with slow performance from LR4 (although in my case I'm using an older Mac Book 2ghz Intel Core Duo, old and slow!).
    I read the basic system requirements for LR, and then came across an Adobe article with recommendations for optimising LR which stated this....
    "Options that can help increase performance include:
    64-bit, multiple-core processor (for best performance, up to six cores. The extra power is especially important if you use multiple or high-resolution monitors which require more power)."
    If I undestand this correctly, that would exclude all laptop Mac's (which I need because I shoot on location), because they are only available as quad core machines?
    I've also read that the Mac's can use Hperthreading on the i7 cores, efffectively getting double the amount of cores?
    Am I still going to struggling with slow response times with a dual core laptop, anyone have experience with the i7 Dual core Mac Book Pro?
    Thanks for any advice,
    Alan.

  • SharePoint Server 2013 single server installation licenses and system requirements

    We are thinking of setting up a SharePoint Server 2013 for the following features to be accessed by our test team (<100 users)
    Our requirements are as follows - 
    Total user access <100 users(starts with 50 and may be go upto 100)
    Mainly Access to TeamSite(Document library), WiKi, BI reports view(SSRS Reports integration)
    We have a Visual Studio Ultimate license that covers SQL Server 2012 and Share Point server 2013.
    We have also got a Amazon EC2 machine access to create a Xlarge box with Microsoft recommended Cores, Memory, storage for SINGLE INSTALLATION of SharePoint Server 2013 and SQL server database on Windows Server 2012 
    My queries are as follows
    Are the licenses above sufficient to go ahead with setting up the SP Server? or do i need any other licenses ?
    I would like to create local LDAP in amazon without connecting to the company active directory. Would this be possible? We have users from other locations(different countries) providing services to our company and we would like them to access this portal
    to share and access docuemnts without any network issue etc..
    Are there any known firewall issues with EC2 machines for share point deployment
    System requirements for single server installation (with or without BI reports)
    Please note this implementation is only for internal use by the test team and is not critical. Not a production implementation. 
    Is there any better solution?
    Much appreciate your help 
    Thanks

    MSDN subscription licenses for SharePoint aren't, as far as i know, for use as production devices. This means that whilst you can use it for testing and development you can't use that license for the SharePoint server that you'll all be using.
    As such I think you will need to buy a SharePoint 2013 server license. The same goes for SQL, Windows etc.
    There is also the question of user licenses, ie. CALs. I don't remember if those come included as part of an MSDN subscription.
    2) Possibly. As long as Amazon can host a domain for you it should be possible.
    3) Pass. Microsoft prefer you to use Azure and most of my training and experience is with that.
    4) High. 4 cores, 24GB of RAM minimum.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262485.aspx#hwforwebserver
    You'll either need a 2XLarge or a memory orientated box, in which case you won't have much storage space.
    Internal team infrastructure is still important. If you're using it enough to make it worth having then you need it there and running.
    Have you considered using Office 365?

  • On installation of Firefox 4 beta, it tells me that it won't run on my Mac. When I go to system requirements, it takes me to a page for Firefox3.6 requirements. Where can I find the requirements for the beta?

    The link to system requirements for Firefox 4 beta takes you to a page that gives you the requirements for Firefox 3.6 instead. I assume that the requirements for the beta are different as I can't seem to install the beta on my Macs. Where can I find the beta system requirements?

    I never expected Mozilla to neglect the users of Apple's PowerPC (PPC) computers, while still supporting much older operating environments such as Windows XP. So, I should just throw away a $6,000 system, which is still fast and functional, and contribute masses of heavy metals to land-fills because…?
    I'm hurt and confused after supporting Firefox for many years — installing and using it not only on my own computers but on most of my customers' computers. Now I have to tell my customers with PPC Macs they can't have a secure cross-platform browsing experience from Mozilla. They'll have to learn to use some other browser, or buy a new computer.
    If one doesn't buy a new computer every year, one doesn't deserve Firefox 4. This is sort of sounding more like a Microsoft™© doctrine. (But wait, I can still have Firefox 4 on a ''SERIOUSLY CRAPPY WINDBLOWS XP pile of rubbish?!'') Please open your eyes Mozilla. This just doesn't make sense.

  • Questions on the capabilities of the Adobe media server and system requirements

    Hello
    We need to send multiple video streams on different computers and screens in our organization. To do this, we need a dedicated server with the following functionality:
    - transmit up to ten (or even more) HD and FullHD streams simultaneously
    - manage playlists in real time without relaunching stream every time after adding items to the playlist
    - imposing of any text and video effects
    - use a variety of sources: a folder with pictures for the slideshow, video and audio files, video capture devices, video streaming from other resources
    Is Adobe media server suitable for our tasks?
    What are the system requirements (I do not mean minimum requierements)?
    If we buy adobe media server, will it be enough? Or we will have to buy additional software products to provide all the necessary functionality?
    Thank you.

    1 and 2 is possible
    3 is not
    4 AMS is not an encoder and does not encode or create streams.You have to use other software for that.Adobe FMLE is for live streaming...Use third part software like manycam(a virtual webcam on your machine) to generate video sources out of slide shows.

  • Questions about System Requirements for Adobe Air programs

         Earlier today I asked someone who runs Tweetdeck if they knew what the system requirements were for running Tweetdeck on my desktop (Windows)
    they gave me a link here: http://www.adobe.com/products/air/systemreqs/
    and I found this:
    Windows

    Microsoft® Windows® XP Home, Professional, or Tablet PC Edition with  Service Pack 3; Windows Server® 2003 or 2008; Windows Vista® Home  Premium, Business, Ultimate, or Enterprise (including 64-bit editions)  with Service Pack 2; or Windows 7
    512MB of RAM (1GB recommended)
    Here are my computer statistics:

    Will me only having a 2.1GHz processor really affect how my performance is with Adobe Air products/apps in general?

    Yes- I've had some lower price pc's using an Adobe AIR app and can tell the difference.
    Computers where performance was a huge issue was Compaq CQ56 & Toshiba Satellite C655D
    These computers are under 2.0 GHz and the app seems to freeze up on occassion or run slower.

  • Adobe after effects cs6 system requirements

    Hi,
    I would like to purchase the adobe master collection cs6, but I wonder if my laptop matches the system requirements, specially my graphic card (with Adobe after effects or adobe premiere pro)
    my laptop:
    Win 7 64 bits
    Intel Core 2 Duo CPU  
    P7450 2.13 GHz
    4 Go RAM
    ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4500 Series
    Could you please tell me your opinion?
    thanks a lot

    The graphics card will work for normal OpenGL acceleration, but not anything else. Anything with CUDA will require an NVidia card. Read the system specs here and here. What's not listed there, is not supported for GPU accelerated raytracing or Mercury Playback. It's that simple. All that aside, it's simply not gonna be fun to run eitehr of the programs on your system. The processor is just weak and 4GB is not much on a 64bit system.

  • Final Cut Studio 2 Minimum System Requirements

    Help me Obi Wan Kenobi....You're my only hope
    I own a Dual 867 MHz Power PC G4 with 1.25 GB of ram and want to purchase Final Cut Studio 2, OS X v10.5 Leopard and Adobe Photoshop CS3. I know Adobe Photoshop CS3 and Leopard are compatible, However what concerns me is Final Cut Studio 2. These are the Minimum System Requirements stated [A Mac computer with a 1.25GHz or faster PowerPC G4 or G5, Intel Core Duo, Intel Core 2 Duo, or Intel Xeon processor] So my question is would Final Cut Studio 2 work efficiently or even at all on my computer? My thinking is with collectively 1734 GHz power it should work, But i could also be delusional. I really would hate to end of buying it only to find put it won't work.
    Thanks in advance!!!

    If you're LUCKY, you might find a replacement processor card for your MDD Powermac G4 - (ideally dual 1.42GHz) - maybe eBay? - maybe from a Mac "breakers yard"? or someone selling off parts from a blown motherboard example?
    It's a drop-in replacement, assuming you're OK with a screwdriver and replacement thermal paste.

  • System Requirements for PS CC, is my Windows 8.1 tablet fit enough?

    Hello everyone,
    I have this Windows 8.1 tablet/laptop kind of thing in my hands. I have been asked to have a copy of PS. I actually was asked to directly just pirate it, but a 3-4 month subscription didn't look much expensive to me, so I won't. I either will buy it or won't have it at all, depending on the answer to this question:
    Can this device handle PS CC?
    Intel Core i5-3337U CPU
    1.80 GHz (4 CPUs)
    Windows 8.1 OS
    4096 MB of RAM
    DDR3 at 1600 MHz
    128 GB of disk space
    SSD through SATA2
    ~40 GB free
    1920 x 1080 display
    Intel HD Graphics 4000
    Integrated & Shared
    This is what I'm worried about the most
    For full list of disclosed specs: http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/pcs/XE700T1C-K01US#key-specs
    Now the System Requirements page for PS CC: https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/tech-specs.html
    Are the specifications of the device I have are good enough? Specifically on the aspects of Processor and the GPU, which I don't have any at all in reality...
    I can always try the product before buying it, but I wanted to ask about it before even trying it.

    4 GB is the absolute minmum to launch Photoshop, 8 GB the minimum to run it well.
    You cannot underestimate the HUGE importance of having enough available contiguous scratch disk space, as well as enough HS space for the swap files of the OS.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    The rule of thumb I follow to figure out scratch space says to figure on 50 to 100 times the size of your largest file ever multiplied by the number of files you have open.  I have seen the scratch file exceed 800 GB once, an admittedly rare occurrence, but it often exceeds 200 GB when stitching large panoramas and the like.
    As an example—and stressing that I'm aware that others have even more scratch space than I do—I keep two dedicated, physically separate hard drives as my primary and secondary Photoshop scratch disks and a lot of GB free on my boot drive for the OS.  I also have 16 GB of RAM installed.
    Additionally, if you only have a single HD, i.e. your boot drive, you'd need it to be large enough to accommodate both the swap files of the OS as well as Photoshop's scratch.

  • Lightroom CC system requirements misleading?

    The system requirements for visibility and install of LR CC through the creative cloud App appear misleading to me i.e. it states a "64 bit capable" processor is required, bit not that it will also need to 64 bit version of the OS installed.
    Processor capability and OS 64 bit version is very different - and certainly not, as I was told by support, that "the processor represents the operating system" ito 64 bit capability. Any half savvy software developer or engineer would know they are not synonymous.
    It was then suggested that I "update" to the 64 bit OS - complete lack of understanding that it takes a clean reinstall in Win 7 to get 64 bit support !!!!
    To cap it off, I was told that if I did not want to reinstall my OS with 64 bit support, I could always just use the older LR desktop 5.7.1 application.
    Circular argument!!!
    Anyone else been caught out by this?

    If I were to purchase a new computer (Mac) with Yosemite or Mavericks installed, would I the receive the cc apps
    Yes.
    The Cloud desktop makes available for download all software titles which meet the system requirements on that computer.
    If you're on a Mac with Yosemite or Mavericks then you will see CS6, CC and CC 2014 available to install.

  • What are the minimum system requirements for GB 4?

    What are the minimum system requirements for GB 4? I did search this forum but wasn't able to find a direct answer.
    I'm running version 3.0.4 successfully on a lowly G4 733 but I suspect this is as far as I can go.
    I'm updating to iDvd'08 and was also wondering if I can safely update to GB4 or not (from GB 3.0.7) on a G4 733 mhz Digital Audio. Any help would be sincerely appreciated. My guess is that I cannot but I'd like to confirm prior to attempting any further updates in GB.

    I try my best to play it safely; always. And you were right, everything worked on the ext. FW HD flawlessly ...... truly amazing software!
    (I did happen to check the activity Monitor w/in Utilities and it showed GB4 using about 60-67% of the CPU on a G4 733 ..... I'm assuming this is normal).
