I currently am running 6.3. I go to updates and Creative Cloud says I am up to date. Issue is I got a new Nikon D500 and understand I need 6.5 for Lightroom to recognize the NEF files. Is the availabilty to update to 6.5 no longer available?

You have the Perpetual version of Lr v6 that Adobe no longer support. 'Update' will not work as Adobe do not provide those any more.

You may be able to download v6.14 (Six.Fourteen) through a third party-

6.14 download VERY IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

Or, if you purchased a download of 6.3 direct from Adobe, you may be able to download 6.14 by logging in to your Adobe Account.

Or you could convert your D500 raw files using the free Adobe DNG Converter and import the DNG files to your 6.3 Lightroom catalog.   Digital Negative (DNG)
