I want to move or add Photoshop & Lightroom to a new computer. I read somewhere that the licensing agreement allows installation on two computers if they are not used at the same time, which is my case. Is this true? Tried to access the licensing PDF on the Adobe site, but it seems to be down.

I started a new computer with LR5, and it runs fine. But, when I imported my pics from a previous computer running LR4, all the pics loaded into the new LR without any tags or processing. How can I get that info without having ot reprocess thousands of pictures?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just installed Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5 CC onto my computer. Lightroom had no problems getting set up and is ready to go. I had an old demo version of Photoshop CS6 on my computer and was told to delete it, which I did. Unfortunately, it also damaged Photoshop 6 CC and I had to unistall it also. Now CC is saying it is up to date and won't reinstall it. I really need to start working on something I promised I would have ready by Monday and can't do it because I don't have Photoshop again.

I am going to purchase a new desktop and would like to install CS5 on the new computer, but it was already installed on two computers (desktop and laptop) so no activations are left. I have the Disk and serial number.

View 1 Replies View RelatedTomorrow I am trading in my old computer (MacBook Pro) for a new computer. How do I deactivate and uninstall Lightroom 4 on my old computer?
In Photoshop CS6 there was a "deactivate" option in the Help menu, but it is not there for Lightroom 4.
I have also tried running as admin and installing to my desktop, to no avail. Here is the screen it gets stuck on [URL]
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have the following custom-built lightroom and photoshop machine:
-Windows 8 64-bit
-8092 Mb 1600Mhz RAM
-Intel i7 2600k Quadcore processor with 8 logical processors running at 4Ghz
-Corsair SSD that stores Lightroom catalog.
When I am creating 1:1 previews from a Nikon D800 (Huge 74Mb RAW files) Lightroom only uses about 25% of my CPU power (sometimes it tops out at around 50% for a second) and about 3.3GBs of RAM which results in relatively slow performance. Why isnt Lightroom using more resources? It barely is using the workhorse components I put in this machine. Ive added a screenshot from the performance monitor during the generation of 500+ 1:1 previews.
Generating 500+ Full 14bit RAW files from the D800 could surely benefit from using the computers' full computing capabilities?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently purchased a new computer, and I need to transfer my existing Lightroom (3.6) catalog to the new machine. I have installed Lightroom on the new machine, and have updated it to the same version as on the old machine. All my images are on an external drive that I can move to the new computer.
Can I simply export the existing catalog, move the hard drive, and import the catalog into the new instance of Lightroom on the new computer? Obviously, I want to retain al the keywords, develop adjustments, etc., that I had in the original catalog.
Is it possible to share photos in light Room to another Mac?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI bought a new computer and am trying to transfer my files from the old computer to the new one. I thought I had it done right, brought the photos into the new computer, and then started working away. I have now discovered, none of my .jpg photos brought over the changes made. For instance, if I go into the Develop mode, all controls are set to "0". I revisited the old computer, and they are not all set to "0" there. What have I done and how do I correct this? I'll never change computers again with Lightroom.
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy computer HDD died :-( Luckily, I have made full HDD backups quite regularly and haven't really lost anything.
However, I'm making a clean install of everything to get a fresh start. Over the years, I have built up quite a large set of LR Develop and Export presets along with several custom lens profiles and camera colour calibrations. Having started from LR2 then upgraded 'in place' over the years, I have a feeling the files for all these might be scattered all over the place on my Windows 7 installation/appdata files.
Apart from the obvious catalog file, where else should I be looking to get my fresh LR5.2 installation looking like it used to with a full recovery of all my various profiles and presets?
I think I found a few in my backed up %appdata% files but there is so much in there, I don't know what is essential and what is just 'junk' from older versions.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a lot of photographs in Lightroom 4 on my laptop. All are DNG and tagged with keywords and caption added to each image. When I move these to Lightroom 4 on another computer keywords and captions are lost when I view the images in LR4. I thought keywords and caption were stored in the DNG-file. How do I move the files to another computer without losing keywords and captions?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently had to repair my Windows Home 7 Premium. Since the repair, a number of programs would not start...this System Error dialog appears:
The program can't start because .DLL is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix the problem.
The programs were Lightroom 4.1, Acronis True Imeage 2012, AVG Antivirus and Vegas Movie Studio 10. Photoshop Elements 9 was unaffected.
I uninstalled and reinstalled all affected programs. TrueImage, Antivirus and Vegas started working again with no issues. Lightroom 4 kept showing the same error (even though the reinstall is always successful). I tried installing 4.0, 4.1 and 4.3, all of them have the same problem.
Since I installed LR4 my computer shuts down every time I am working in it. What could it be?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using LR5 on one computer but have all my photos and the Lightroom catalog folder & files on an external hard disk. When I run LR5 on a second computer using the same files on the EHD most things seem to be working fine, the 1:1 previews, user presets, etc. But there are a number of items in Preferences and View options that don't have the settings I made when using the other computer. I was under the impression all the LR5 settings and preferences were stored in the Lightroom folder and would therefore "transfer" to a second computer assuming I use the same LR catalog and Lightroom folder.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have just got a new computer and re-installed Lightroom on it. I now need to transfer my catalogue and files over.
I already know I need to copy and move them over but I have a question that probably seems very simple/obvious to most.
When I copy my catalogue file, WHERE am i supossed to copy it to on the new computer? In Pictures, Lightroom, there already exists a catalogue but obvioulsy this is not the one I want there. If I move my old catalogue to the same place (along with the other files) there will be 2 catalogues in there. How do I make sure Lightroom reads from the old catalogue I am copying over.

View 15 Replies View RelatedI have a separate catalog of photos from a recent trip on my laptop (don't ask why I created a 2nd catalog - won't do that again). I want to transfer them to our desktop, which is a mac (the laptop is pc). Following instructions in a tim grey email, I used "export catalog" to transfer to an external hard drive, with intent to then import to the mac. I did check for it to export negative files. It took forever, but froze partway through the process. So I created a new folder to export into, and tried it again. It got much further that time but froze again. When I use lightroom to access the files that did transfer, I find the folders labelled as they are on the laptop, but when I open them, the application says, "no items match your search", although it does indicate there are i.e. 47 MG in the file. I can use picasa to view the files, both the jpeg's and the raw files, so they're in there.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am having a problem with moving my photos from a MacBook Pro to a PC laptop. All the files reside in one directory on an external drive. I copied the catalog from the Mac to the PC, connected the drive, started LR and pointed to the copied catalog. As expected, LR did not know where the files from the external drive were, so I highlighted the drive, right clicked the photo directory and told it to find missing files. I then pointed it to the proper directory on the drive. It only partially worked. Several of the subdirectories on the drive did not relink. If I take the drive off the PC and put it back on the Mac, the subdirectories are properly linked, where on the PC, some aren't.
I can reimport, but then I have to do edits all over again on those photos.
I recently purchased an iMac, along with Lightroom 4. My daughter would also like to get into photography and photo editing. Is there a way to keep her lightroom library separate from mine? I'm thinking into the future where she will have her own Mac and wondering how hard it will be to transfer her lightroom library. I would like to store her pics on an external drive as well.
