    you may as well dl the last lr 5 update, lr 5.7.1,

    Downloadable installation files available:

    Download and installation help for Adobe links

    Download and installation help for Prodesigntools links are listed on most linked pages.  They are critical; especially steps 1, 2 and 3.  If you click a link that does not have those steps listed, open a second window using the Lightroom 3 link to see those 'Important Instructions'.

    Thanks I got it downloaded but the files need to be extracted before use and LR doesn't like the Linux Mint OS. Is there a work around to allow compatibility that you know of. I get a message that says it needs Win 7 or later . I have a Win 8 machine but I over wrote it completely with Linux.
