Lightroom CC with Lightroom Classic

Once you migrate your catalog to CC, can you still use Lightroom Classic?

Currently, when I import photos to my iPad Pro or iPhone they are automatically downloaded to my laptop through Lightroom. I'd love to have the cloud storage and online backup while still using Classic for more complicated edits and local storage.

    Hi  WSrees,

    Yes, You can still use Lightroom Classic CC as an individual application. So, everythingworks like before, only thing that changed as far as sync is concerned is that you now have Lightroom CC(a cloud based app) where you can see and edit all your synced images from other devices. I'd recommend you to check out this article Introducing: Lightroom CC, Lightroom Classic CC and More | Photoshop Blog by Adobe

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks,

    Akash

    I gave CC a try, and migrated my database from classic.  It created a entirely new folder with all the files copied over.  So, currently I have 2 copies of every photo on my computer.  If i plan on using both programs for a few months to see which i prefer, how can I do so, and keep my photos in order.  Is there a master folder (classic or CC)?  Did I migrate correctly, or was there some way to use the folder with my photos from classic?

    That should not be. What was your procedure in doing this migration?
