Lightroom Version 14.0.1

Camera Raw Version 17.0

 

Creative Cloud says “up to Date”

    Solved.  Went to Creative Cloud and Installed Lightroom Classic and it installed 15.1.1.  Weird I could not Update 14.0.1

    Hi, ​@bctolley, the minimum requirement for Sony A1M2 images is Lightroom Classic 14.5. Currently, LRC 15.1.1 is available. The current release version of ACR is 18.0.

    Please go to your Creative Cloud Application and check for updates there.

     

    Open the CCA, click on the Apps icon in the far right, and then select View Updates

    If nothing shows, then click on Check for updates.

    I hope that helps. Let us know one way or the other. 

     

    Thanks

    The Sony A1ll  requires Lr-Classic version 14.1 for compatibility- So update required.

    And the *Notes state-

    Thanks except Creative Cloud says 14.0.1 is up to date.  No updates available.
