Question

Lightroom Classic is crashing on MacOS Ventura

I cannot get my Lightroom Classic to run on my Mac Studio using MacOS Ventura 13.0.1. I've uninstalled then reinstalled. I've read forums here that suggest this is a bug and that the only workaround is to downgrade to the former OS. I'm willing to do that. But I'm also wondering if there may be another fix. I can't even get it to load. And yes, I got this computer primarily to run Adobe quickly. There are no memory problems. I still can run the other apps, but I rely on Classic. I apprecaite any help at all. Thank you in advance.

    Please install 12.1, released last night, and advise if you are still experiencing the crash. 

     

    Thanks!

    Yes. I just updated to lightroom 12.1 and it is STILL not launching. I get the splash screen then nothing. I do pay a lot for Adobe. I really would like to get this up and running. If it's the OS, fine. all my other lightroom products work fine. It's just this one.

    that's ok about moving your message.  (but you should answer @GoldingD question by preferrably showing a screenshot of the cc desktop app showing your installed lrc version).
