Adobe lightroom 6 upgrade9/24/2023 ![]() ![]() You are in effect, asking for something for nothing. Just like that higher grade of steak at the supermarket costs more than stew beef. Just like automobile makers put their bigger engines in cars that cost more. Just like your cable TV or satellite TV provider wants more money for more channels. Or better yet, give me tethering codecs for the new D750 camera and I'll stick with LR5!īut Adobe doesn't offer the FULL featured version for $79. I just want the FULL featured version of LR6 for $79, not for $120 per year. It seems clear that Adobe is driving the herd to the cloud. So if we can do either, why are they watering down one version versus the other.Įvery company on the planet offers different items at different prices, and as far as I can tell, when you pay more, you get more and when you pay less, you get less. Just saying.ĭj_paige The issue I have is that yes, I can renew my standalone version of LR for $79, but in an earlier post you said we get a lot more features with the CC version. Now I'm not a moderator, but if I was, I'd delete this. ![]() Never the twain will meet - for Adobe to hi-jack my existing fully paid versions. I spoke to Adobe today and, grinding away at the point until the poor guy must have wished he was at the dentist, I was reassured that 6 will live on my laptop completely independently from my 5.7.1. I will buy the complete application at whatever Amazon UK charges. Any enhancements will be fed into the app as they are developed. It is most unlikely that there will ever be a v7 because with the constant "free upgrade" associated with renting the app, there is no need for Adobe to launch complete new versions. People have said "Ah! But when v7 comes along you will be locked out. They are now - not least Google nav for free.īut will there be a worthwhile alternative to L/R? As Apple's version of this software has been ditched, Adobe has grabbed the opportunity to establish a captive market for a rented application, with no viable alternative in sight. Fortunately, by the time this happens, alternatives to TomTom will be available. At the end of 3 years, all owners will be obliged to subscribe. Then they told all us owners that we had now 'bought' a 3 year 'licence' to use the app. And, as is the case in almost every aspect of life, owning an asset is far better than renting it.įor example, TomTom sold TomTom navigation for Android as a stand alone. It is a way to turn owners of Lightroom into renters of Lightroom. People - be absolutely clear that the subscription 'option' is nothing to do with enhancing the capabilities of this application. They may be able to shell out ad nauseam for the app - which they once had the option to own outright and upgrade if and when they felt so inclined. The idea that every little tweak that Adobe pasts into L/R and the bundled apps may keep these people happy. I don't want to be stuck with a subscription rate which Adobe can jack up at will, once I'm nailed to the CC floor. I don't want the pathetic - outrageous! - storage allocations that come with the subscription options. Its a mess and I would appreciate any help from someone with much more knowledge in this area than myself.I don't want P/shop. To make it more complex, I still have LR 5.7 on this pc but that hasn't got the latest features I need. I have mirrored this drive (cloned) so maybe drag and drop the files over to replace and see if that fixes it but I don't want to lose the edit data attached to my 2 years worth or RAW files. It seems a file in LR must have become corrupt ? but I don't know where to look. Even tried program compatibility troubleshooter but that didn't resolve it. I have rolled back windows to an earlier date (usually always works for issues) but to no avail. There is no logic to why this should suddenly stop opening, and I don't have any recent catalogues backed up for this year as I had set LR to write data to the RAW files in their folders. I hadn't changed anything, no updates, windows etc BUT at the same time I was opening Speedfan (checks your core temp) and that also hung at the same time.Īfter re-booting the pc, Speedfan works fine but Lightroom no longer opens, it just hangs endlessly until I "end task" in task manager. I have Lightroom 6 on my windows 10 pc (originally running on my older win 7 pc) It has been working fine on this pc for 2 years but yesterday, when I tried to open it it just hangs with the blue swirling icon. ![]()
