Updating to the cloud (Lightroom and photoshop) lightroom 5.7 already installed

Hi !
How do I update to the CC (lightroom and photoshop) if I already have lightroom 5.7 installed and I work my photos from an external hard drive.
I have a macbook pro.
Thanks

>If I uninstall Lr 5.7 from my mac, do I have to reinport all my photos into the susscription Lr ?
No. The photos are in a catalog file, not in the application so you shouldn't have to reimport. At most you need to point the CC Lightroom to your catalog file. The subscription LR is identical to the CC one, so there really is absolutely no reason to install the CC one. I would only install the CC one when LR 6 comes out.

I am trying to update FCPX to latest version and I get message: FCP already installed on this computer use software update

I have FCPX on my desktop and laptop. Both OSX ver 10.6. My desktop is a Mac Pro, Laptop is a Mac Book Pro early 2009. I was able to update my installation on the laptop but when I tried to update the Mac Pro I got a message stating that the program is installed and I should use software update. Both computers still have FC Studio installed. Any idea why I am getting this message on my Mac Pro?

Make sure it's
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X v10.7.5 or OS X v10.8.3 or later.
and if it is you can delete the Final Cut Pro X application from your Applications folder. Then go to Purchases in the Mac App Store and download- it will be the latest version.

I have been subscribing to the 9.99 lightroom and photoshop for almost a year. Under apps in the Creative Cloud it shows that Lightroom needs to be installed.Why?

I have been subscribing to the 9.99 lightroom and photoshop for almost a year. Yet when I go to the Apps tab on the Creative Cloud it repeatedly says I need to install lightroom. However, for photoshop it says I need to update the application. When I check in Lightroom under check for updates, it says my software is up to date. Why is this happening?

Whenever Lightroom is shown as an install in the creative cloud manager, that is an indication that there is an update available. There is a Lightroom 5.7.1 update that has been released. But there isn't really an update process for Lightroom other than to install the newer version. The 5.7.1 update had some bug fixes and support changes for a Sony camera, I believe.

I only bought Lightroom and Photoshop subscription but it appears the cloud overwrote all my other old programs and is now demanding a new serial

Hi,
I joined the subscription service but ONLY purchased Lightroom and Photoshop. I had other legally aquired adobe programs on my computer that I was perfectly happy with (dreamweaver - I olnly do the bare minimum of stuff with it, i write my own code mostly - therefore did not need an upgrade)...now it seems Adobe has taken it upon itself to update ALL of my programs to the newest versions and will not let me use any of my stuff until I pay for a new serial for ALL of it. I can't even read a PDF all of a sudden, because i magically have the newest version of Acrobat, which I NEVER asked for....
So they basically used my membership and HACKED my computer and updated software - I say hacked because these updates were without my permission...and now they are trying to force money out of me????? This should be ILLEGAL! this was a really really really crappy thing to do, since I DO NOT have the money to buy serials for all this other software. THANKS A LOT FOR SCREWING ME. would you please now HACK my computer again and fix this???? I should not be forced to update all my software if I DO NOT WANT TO!
If Adobe does not remedy this I will cancel everything and find other stuff to use. Too bad, because I prefer this software, but there is always another alternative...
FIX THIS!!!!!

Hi I have the old photo shop elements 10 on my computer and want to update and was wondering what the differences between photoshop, lightroom and photoshop elements are?
Also when I upgrade does it have to be with a monthly membership or can I just purchase the product out right like you use to be able?

You cannot "update" from what you have to any of the applications you mention. It will have to be a straight purchase or subscription at full price.
Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its very long and steep learning curve.
Lightroom is all about volume, and very light editing.

In Creative Cloud, does the $9.99/month Individual Photography plan come with BOTH Lightroom and Photoshop CC?

In Creative Cloud, does the $9.99/month Individual Photography plan come with BOTH Lightroom and Photoshop CC? It is not very clear on the home page. It shows both and mentions both, but doesn't specifically say BOTH come with the monthly $9.99/month plan. Can somebody clarify?

You can right click the tab and choose "Close Tab" to close a tab.
Some menu entries are hidden by default and only appear if you use the keyboard to open the menu.
You can see the difference if you use Alt+F or Alt+B to open the "File" and "Bookmarks" menu and compare that to what you see if you use the mouse to open the menu after you have made the menu bar visible by pressing Alt or by pressing F10.
Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.

I am currently using the adobe cloud service and would like to give my granddaughter my original lightroom and photoshop programs. Would do I need to do to remove them from my computer to hers? The lightroom 5 program has been replaced with the cloud version on my computer.

Follow the steps listed at Transfer an Adobe product license
Lightroom has no activation check so you don't need to do anything to your computer. Your old copy of Photoshop must be deactivated / uninstalled if you haven't already done so.

What is the difference from the creative cloud and having the lightroom and Photoshop?

what is the difference from the creative cloud and having the lightroom and Photoshop? I thought i was purchasing the lightroom and photoshop, but now I'm not sure that i got the right product because it only says i have creative cloud. Is there a way to change products without penalty

Hi Jessica,
The creative cloud complete plan has all the applications including Lightroom and Photoshop and there is a Photography plan which only includes Photoshop and Lightroom.

Membership Lightroom and Photoshop CC are active on my Mac but Adobe insists I reactivate the copies used on my PC - how?

If I have already got monthly paid membership for both of these apps on bith machines, how do you re-activate the PC version?

Open creative Cloud desktop and apply the latest update. Or download it from the following link and sign-in with your Adobe ID
https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud
You should get the following options:
Update Photoshop CC
Update Photoshop CC 2014
Update Bridge
Scroll down to the other apps and find Lightroom and click Install.

My account lost information about my order and subscription. As a result I can't use Lightroom and Photoshop as they are in the state of the expired demo.

Hi
I paid my annual subscription on the 26th of November last year. I've installed both Lightroom and Photoshop and started using them quite successfully.
Then I installed the same products on my home Mac and migrated all my Apperture libs to it. Everything went smoothly.
However one day I got a message that I can't develop photos in Lightroom due to my account problems. I logged in into my adobe id to check what's wrong and realized that my account was on free creative cloud.
I tried to check my other appleIds - all were empty. I found a link at the Adobe FAQ how to check orders but the page didn't find my order number I took from the Adobe order confirmation email.
Does anybody know how to make it all working again? How to link again my paid order to my AdobeId?

Hello - Is the issue still pending

I had a trial version of Lightroom and Photoshop. Purchased the LR/PS deal. Photoshop still says trial version.

I had a trial version of CC Lightroom and Photoshop. Purchased the LR/PS Photographer deal. Lightroom seems to be running as a purchased app. But, Photoshop still says I have X number of days in my trial.
Any ideas on how to switch PS to a purchased app?
Thanks

Hi Atul,
I am having the same problem.
Logout then Login is not working for my case.
History of my problem.
I installed LR 6/CC from Creative Cloud but it fails to open and while fixing it I uninstall all prevously installed apps (LR, Bridge, Photoshop CC)
Now I able to install/open LR6 but it reverted back to trial version and same issue with other apps.
Adobe Customer Care is pathetic (not possible get direct chat).
No idea how to solve my problem.
I fear to trust to Adobe of loosing my lifetime collection of pics.
Any help is appreciated.
Regards
Ashish

I have dell xps it runs at 3840 x 2167 and bridge lightroom and photoshop are unusable as the type is so small if win is re scaled to a low res the products still use full res and you canot see text can you help!

I am about to buy the above products for home and a laptop I bought the high res laptop for editing photos and the photos look great on the display but I cannot use photo shop and lightroom
has any body had this problem and is there a simple fix that I have missed
taking the res down in the control panel reduces the res but does not effect the programme
by the way the dell xps is great
dave

Thanks for the info I know that there were problems with the high res
I am using the latest photoshop and bridge from the cloud but only using the trial copy at the
moment
I will look closer and try to scale it to a suitable level
thanks dave

There is that pitfall in buying HiDpi laptops for Windows.
Only Photoshop CC 2014 has the option to scale the UI 200% in order to make it usable on these hires screens.
CC and earlier does not have this and Adobe would have to retrofit them. Not likely with older products.
