Since version 14. Lightroom CC does not start up anymore. I am still working with an older MacOS, namely MacOS Ventura 13.7.2. At start-up, the circle with the rainbow colors immediately appears. I then uninstalled the latest version of Lightroom and went back to version 14.0. The same thing happens there. With 14.0 I was able to work for this. I do get the message that Ircat cannot be found with both versions. However, I can't click the button for another catalog, because the curser keeps spinning.

I am working on a mac with 14.7.2 Ventura. I had to uninstall  the desktop app using the  Creative Cloud desktop app uninstaller utility. . Then I downloaded and reinstalled the desktop app, and now it is working however there is a note that some items work better with the newer OS>   You said you have an older Mac... which one?

I have a iMac from 2017. I understand that there are things that work better with a newer OS. I will try to do what you say

Lightroom starts up in about fifteen minutes and then I can work with it. I think it has to do with my somewhat older Mac.
