HI,

today I licensed Adobe Cloud with LR Classic 14. I installed LR Classic 14. After start LR tried to upgrade my old legacy LR 6 catalog to the newest format. An error message occured.

Questions:

- Can LrC 14 migrate an old legacy LR 6 catalog?

- How can I avoid the error during upgrade?

Thanks.

I am stuck in the same pickle but I do not have the option to go back to 13.2… The oldest I can find is 14.0.

What do I do now?

Thanks

Hi @Eccentric_Sunshine44f3 , Thanks for reaching out! If you tried updating, this might be a different/new issue. If that’s the case, I would recommend creating a new post with the following:

System Info: Your system info can be obtained by going to Help > System Info, copying and pasting it into a text file, and attaching it here.
A numbered list of the exact steps needed to replicate the issue.
Expected result - what should happen after executing the last step.
Actual result - what actually occurred after the previous step.
If possible, a screen recording or screenshots of your work area.

Once we get that information, we can help you troubleshoot the issue. Thanks! ^CH

Hmm, yes we need to see the error. I suspect it is a dialog screen complaining that the lrcat-data file could not be found. As your catalog is old v6, their is in fact no lrcat-data file, and you should have had an option to never mind continue on.

The dialog screen in question is a bit poorly written, is it perhaps this one?
