Correct answer Govardhan.V

Fully downloaded a new trial version not working because it refers to the old one that I had, older than one month. Consider that I have a credit on adobe site for a photography creative cloud plan.


1) Right click on the Finder icon on dock and select "Go-To Folder" option.
2) You will get a text box, type-in below mentioned command and then hit 'Return' key.

/etc

3) It will open the etc folder, please look for file named "hosts" and copy the same to Desktop screen.

4)Double click on Hosts file , it will open it with TextEdit,

Let me know whether you can see any Adobe related entries inside Hosts file like 127.0.0.1 activate.adobe.com.......etc??

Did you downloaded Lightrooom application via Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app?

If yes,  try with steps mentioned in below link :

I had a previous trial mode lightroom and at the expiration I bought the full mode program through the adobe site. But the program still continues to go on the trial mode and now, after one month, without the possibility to work on the images.

I still don't understand since I have a regular order number for the full program.

Sign out from Adobe Creative Cloud app and Sign in again .

Sign in and sign out to activate Creative Cloud apps

Still same?? Check Hosts file and see if there are any Adobe blocker entries.

No Such entries??

You need to uninstall currently installed Lightroom and then re-install Lightrooom again via Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app.

Download and install Adobe Creative Cloud apps

Still same ?? let us know .
