If you’re struggling with Lightroom and/or you value having all your photos automatically available to you everywhere, this might also be the time to consider switching to the simplified cloud-based Lightroom application.Macos catalina It has already been officially launched and in its final version, even so there are users who are reporting problems.
If you’re interested in subscribing to Adobe’s Photography Plan so that you can use the latest Lightroom Classic (which is the newer version of Lightroom 6 available by subscription only), here’s where you’d subscribe, and here is my video tutorial on how to do the upgrade. Here’s a statement from Jeff Tranberry of Adobe on these compatibility issues. If you decide to ignore this advice and upgrade to Catalina anyway, before you do so, if you have Lightroom 6 be sure to update it to 6.14, and if you have CC 2015, to 2015.14 (by installing the Lightroom 6 version available on this Adobe Lightroom Downloads page, as you’ll no longer be able to on Catalina.įinally, if you purchase a new computer that runs Catalina, you won’t be able to install old versions of Lightroom on it – at that point you’ll either need to subscribe to one of Adobe’s subscription plans or move on to a competitor.
Therefore, if you want to continue to safely use your old version of Lightroom, DO NOT UPGRADE TO Mac OS CATALINA when it becomes available. In addition, you may encounter video playback issues with older versions of Lightroom, and it’s possible that other issues will be identified once Catalina is out and users put older versions of Lightroom to the test. While you should initially be able to use Lightroom 5, 6 and CC 2015 on Catalina if you have installed that version of Lightroom prior to updating to Catalina, if you then encounter an issue with Lightroom that requires uninstalling and reinstalling the software to resolve it, or if your hard drive fails and recovering requires reinstalling software, you won’t be able to.
(These issues also apply to old versions of Photoshop.) Namely, if you install OS Catalina, you will no longer be able to uninstall, reinstall, or activate old versions of Lightroom, since the installers for these are 32-bit applications, and Catalina only supports 64-bit applications. While Adobe is working to make the latest version of Lightroom Classic compatible with Catalina, there are serious issues with using old versions of Lightroom that will not be fixed. Apple plans to introduce its new Mac operating system, OS Catalina, in late September.
