Reloading LightRoom on a new computer

i am planning on replacing my desk top computer that has LightRoom on it.  Can i install LightRoom on my new computer without un-installing from the old computer first?  does it look [via internet] to see if that license is already registered to a different computer?  i don't need it on both computers, but i don't want to have to buy it again and i want it registered to the correct computer.

awesome.  thanks

  • How do I reload  Lightroom to a new computer with out a disc drive

    I need to reload lightroom to a new computer with not disc drive

    He did use the term "disc" not "disk".  For me the C version is optical media and the K version is a hard-drive.
    To answer the original question, you can download the latest LR 5.6 update and then enter your serial number.  The LR updates, along with most other Adobe updates, are available here:

  • Computer stolen, is it possible to reinstall Lightroom on my new computer without buying it again?

    my new macbook pro was stolen.  i have had to repurchase a new computer and I need to re-install lightroom.  is there a way for adobe to allow me to install lightroom on my new computer without having to repurchase it?
    thank you.

    You probably have the trial of the Creative Cloud version installed (this version cannot be activated with the perpetual license key). Uninstall the one presently on your computer this will not affect your existing catalog, preferences and other personal files. Then download LR 5.6 from the link below, install and insert your serial number and it should work fine.

    Did you buy the perpetual version of Lightroom or is this the subscription version? If perpetual, install and enter your serial number. If subscription, install using the creative cloud desktop app and be sure you're signed into it.

  • Re-installing lightroom onto a new computer

    Hi
    I've just got a new imac and I already have Lightrrom 4 on my old one. I'm sure to most this is a VERY simple question so sorry in adance but believe it or not I cannot find the answer in any forums. How do I reinstall Lightroom onto a new computer?
    Can I do this somehow using the serial number? I'm sure the licence allows use on 2 machines so I dont think I have to purchase again.
    When I go into order history on my adobe account page, I thought I might be able to download it from there again... but cant see this option.
    PLease could any replies be in simple speak and not too technical.
    Many thanks

    reference to: writing down serial numbers. Expect this from software in the 1980s.
    as such, unable to use the software.
    Office 365 on the other hand, no problem.
    There's a pleasant surprise.
    edit2: maybe i can copy it across from my old installation? Surely that is too easy.
    Anthony - doing a fresh install and just been gutted by adobe. Time vampire like this is deprecated by me.
    I guess I don't understand any of this, it's not even clear to me what your issue is. Please describe the problem more clearly without discussing Time vampires and Office 365.

  • I am moving lightroom to a new computer. I downloaded an update and tried to install it. The download refused my serial number. What do I do?

    I am moving lightroom to a new computer. The   installed program is refusing my serial number. What to I do?

    Then all I can suggest is that you double check your serial number. If you registered your software you can check your account on Adobe and double check to make sure you have the number right.

  • How do I install Lightroom onto my new computer after old computer crashes?

    My old computer recently crashed and I just got a new one (MacBook Pro).  I had Lightroom 3 on that computer and I need to get it back onto my new computer.  I have the original disc, but my new computer doesn't have a disc drive! How can I do this?? I also have the same issue with Photoshop CS4, but I don't have the disc for that.  Please tell me this is a possibility without having to re-purchase everything!?

    Emily-
    This isn't an "I told you so" but since I just learned how well it works, I'll pass this on to you.
    START using Time Machine to back up...it's the greatest way to move all your old apps to a new / restored hard drive without all the cruft from the old one which probably caused the crash. If you ever crash again, reinstall the OS and then restore from Time Machine which will bring in all your apps and preferences and you will be right as rain in no time.
    Sorry to hear you crashed, glad you've gotten a lot of good advice here.
