Looking for Lightroom 4 Mac installer download

Hi everyone, I wanted to re-install Lightroom 4 on my MacBook but the Adobe support list doesnt have the installer for Macs, just the Windows one is available.

Any help on this would be much appreciated!

Correct answer johnrellis

The Download Photoshop Lightroom page says "Contact Support" for LR 4 on OS X. Since the page provides the download for Windows, I'm guessing that there may be some serious problems with LR 4 running on newer versions of OS X. Have you tried contacting support? (That's often an exercise in extreme frustration with any company, more so with Adobe. It's hard to trust whatever any one person at Adobe Support says, given the number of reports here over the years about incorrect information from support.)

But last month, someone noticed that the Windows download link was actually for Mac. From that thread, I was able to reconstruct a URL that works: http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/lightroom/mac/4.x/Lightroom_4_LS11_mac_4_4_1.dmg . You could try this, but note my warning in the previous paragraph.

Hi Lightroom community. I am in need of the lightroom 4 for MAC OS link. I have tried the forum but I think all the links are no longer working. Can anyome please help me get a LR4 download. I stupidly sold my USB Drive when I sold my desctop and now have the LR4 cd but no means of getting it onto my laptop.

Thank you in advance

Which Mac operating system are you running? If Catalina, then Lightroom 4 will not install or run.

Hi John, Im running Yosemite so am hoping that it should work. I'm pretty sure I had run LR4 on this laptop. I had an iMac and was running it on there but have since sold the iMac and my USB drive (not a great move in hindsight). Only realised recently I had the LR4 CD but no means of getting it on my laptop.

Hello

I have this problem as well. I looked at that thread you mentioned and the url referenced for lightroom 4 is:

Keeping Lightroom Up-to-Date

When I go to that link, I do not see any download for Lightroom 4. I realize this product is quite old but I still find it useful and would like to continue using it.

Thank you
