Updating Lightroom from ole version and OS to new LR 5 CC on Mac OS 10.8.5

I decided to pull the triger on Creative Cloud and to do so had to finally upgrade from Mac OS 10.4.11 to OS 10.8.5. I kept a boot versuion of the old OS on a separate internal  hard drive just in case.
I've used Lightroom for years and continuously upgraded without problems. I have an extensive catalog (I'm a professional phtotographer) that lives on a dedicated internal hard drive. I want to use Lightroom 5 CC but can't find any instructions for how to update the old catalog so the new version of Lightroom running in the new OS sees it. . The old catalog will not open in LR 5 CC I moved a copy of LR 4 onto the OS 10.8.5 boot drive but it will no open. Any thoughts? I am stumped.

    You would have to purchase a retail Leopard installer DVD. Since they are difficult to find you may need to search on eBay, Amazon.com, and Google to find a suitable copy.
    If you have an Intel iMac, then you may want to consider upgrading to Snow Leopard which you can purchase at any Apple retailer for $29.00 versus the minimum price of $129.00 for Leopard.
    Leopard System requirements
    You must have a Macintosh computer with:
    an Intel processor or a PowerPC G4 (867 MHz or faster) or G5 processor
    a DVD drive >built-in FireWire
    at least 512 MB of RAM (additional RAM is recommended for development purposes)
    a built-in display or a display connected to an Apple-supplied video card supported by your computer
    at least 9 GB of disk space available, or 12 GB of disk space if you install the developer tools
    Snow Leopard General requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation
    Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    And, you could also upgrade to Lion by purchasing the Apple USB Lion flash drive installer for $69.00.
    Lion System Requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

    This is a fairly in-depth tutorial on moving from one computer to another.(I recommend Option 1)
    http://www.lightroomqueen.com/2009/02/28/how-do-i-move-lightroom-to-a- new-computer/
    Also, there's no need to find the original disk for installation.  Just download the latest update of your purchased version from here: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/ and user your original serial number.

  • What happened. Running windows 8.1 adobe did an update to latest reader version and broke it. now cannot reinstall older version.  r

    Adobe updated reader to latest version and broke it.  tried everything on the adobe troubleshooting guide.  uninstalled with intent to install older version, but now that won't even work.  Old version was working fine- now I cannot access any of my .pdf files.  trying to get work done - totally frustrated and disgusted.

    If you are in Windows -which you haven't said- you can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • TS1702 I just updated numbers to newest version and found that numbers quits to home screen when I tap the information icon on "function  help", it starts to load the "help" then quits  this happens on both my ipad3 & iphone5

    2/3/14: I just updated numbers to newest version and found that numbers quits to home screen when I tap the information icon on "function  help", it starts to load the "help" then quits. It happens on both my ipad3 & iphone5. I tried restarting the devices but it didn't help.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Updating Lightroom from 3 to 5

    I am thinking of upgrading my lightroom from lightroom 3 ...how difficult is it ? and wwhat are the changes i will have to worry about, does all my data/folders/catalogs have to be changed too

    Lightroom 5 will convert your existing catalog, but the conversion is saved as a new catalog. Your existing Lightroom 3 installation will remain intact and usable just as it is now. If you're that concerned, download the Lightroom 5 trial version and use it for 30 days and see what you think. The transition was completely painless for me. Nothing was lost. Since you are moving from Lightroom 3 there will be a process version change to deal with. All of your existing images will remain in process version 2010 with sliders just as you see them in Lightroom 3. New imports will have the process version 2012 sliders and they are different. And you can switch between the two versions. Just a couple of things to be aware of but it isn't anything to be afraid. It just gives you more flexibility.

  • Updated to 4.0 version and when it loaded I got 4 identical icons on my desktop. I went back in time on my computer and now Firefox won't open.

    Updated to 4.0 version and when it finished loading I got 4 identical Firefox icons on my desktop. I went back in time on my computer to go back to an order version and Firefox won't open or is very slow to open.

    Do a clean (re-)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    * It may not be necessary to create a new profile, so first try if it works with your current profile and if not then create a new profile.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

    Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

    make sure that the fields in the Excel should be formatted (as numeric , characher ) depending upon the data types .

  • How stopping a version and start a new one from the previous

    Hi,
    May be someone could help me to erase my basics questions on Robosource control.
    We have to manage several versions of our product documentation and It is not clear how it is managed by robosource control. The documentation tells what can do RBSC (and it seems to be what we need) but they do not explain how to do it (prerequisites, ordered steps, etc), and I do not really succeeded. May be I missed the basics.
    All our projects are added to Robosource control 3 from RoboHelp7 Html from a local directory.
    In the database, we inserted them in a directory corresponding to a version V01.r01.
    I would like to stop this version and start a new one V01.02 with the projects which are V01.01. What is the best way to do this:
    Do I just label the directory V01.01 and "Pin" it ?  In that way how can I recover all the projects and files that were labelled and pinned for version V01.01, if I need them later ?
    Copy and rename directory V01.01 into V01.02 to continue the file modifications without modifiying the same project in V01.01?
    My questions are quite similar to Kristen's questions.
    Please can anyone help ! Thanks !

    Doing the upgrade over iTunes will give you the opportunity to make a full backup of your phone first, and will most likely provide for a faster and smoother upgrade.   I'd do it that way, and will once I get home later tongith.

    i have i phone 3G and i update it from i tunes and it says there is no sim

    There is nothing wrong with Apple's activation servers. They are up & running just fine.
    We're Sorry, Activation Server Temporarily Unavailable, contact Customer Care...Your request Could Not Be Completed?"
    99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
    So, you need to get a sim card from the carrier the phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked.
    Apple has started to get "tough" with hacked iPhones, & simply won't permit their activation

    Sounds like you have a phone that was hacked to unlock it. Updating has re-locked it to the original carrier. ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it. Contact them.
