Mise à niveau du catalogue LR V6 classic vers LR classic V 14.1

Bonjour,

Je travaillais sur LR V6 et j'ai demandé un essai gratuit avec LR classic 20Go. Je peux ouvrir V6 classic  en version limitée (bibliothèque) avec mon catalogue mais je ne peux pas le mettre à jour avec LR classic V14.1. J'ai essayé toutes les solutions proposées par les tutos (Adobe) mais la MàJ ne se fait pas.

Avez-vous des sugestions ?

Merci.

Jean-Philippe

I am beginning to suspect that any version of Lr-Classic later than v13.2 (ie. 13.3, 14.0, 14.01) is not capable of upgrading catalogs from Lr v6. Perhaps because of the changed database structure introduced in v13.3 of LrC.

 

@Jean-Philippe37565092aejr  I can only suggest you *** try-

-Install v13.2 in the Desktop App and try opening the v6 catalog with 13.2, then later upgrade again to v14.0.1

If that fails your only option might be to save metadata to all files in Lr6, then import all files to a new catalog in v14.0.1. You will preserve only the last develop version of images, no History, no Collections, etc.

 

***But the important consideration is- You do need a paid subscription to the Photography Plan. If you don't subscribe you may have 'killed' your access to develop functions in Lr6 by installing the Desktop App.

Bonjour et merci beaucoup. Effectivement le saut de V 13.1 à 14.1 n'est pas possible. Je suis passé par les intermédiaires 13.2, 13.4, 14 pour arriver à 14.01. Ca marche.

Pour la V 6 que j'ai réinstallée via Créative cloud, je comprend bien que je n'ai plus qu'un accès limité aux modules (seulement bibliothèque). Je ne peux plus réutiliser ma version d'origine (sur CD).

Je stocke surtout mes photos (30 000), je gère avec des mots clés et je fais peu de développement. Je ne sais pas encore si un abonnement est bien utile. Je vais tester durant la semaine gratuite.

Encore merci.

Cordialement.
