Where's download link for Lightroom 6!!

[mjc42454437]

I just re-install my sing purchased lightroom 6 to my new desktop.

Creative cloud doesn't work for new lightroom cc or classic, doesn't any any serial number.

and download links below don't have the exact application.

Download Photoshop Lightroom

Adobe Support Policies: Supported Product Versions

[Tom236025635j1n]

I just tried to call Adobe about the same thing, and he gave me my serial number to my Lightroom 6.14 copy, and a link to this. We love Lightroom, but we use it only for cataloging all the family photos, not editing. I just wanted to find out if we can get a copy of 6.14 for when I have to move to a new computer. Also I wanted to know if it would be worth it to try Lightroom Classic instead of trying to get the old one to work. Our biggest problem is the cost. It really isn't worth the annual fee, just to to keep all our photos organized. I've search, and tried others, but none work this well for the way we want to keep everything. From what I read here, I'm guessing we haven't much of a choice.

"...if we can get a copy of 6.14..."

One source for a download is through a 3rd party- ProDesignTools-

Note: That if a "new computer" is a Mac with BigSur, Catalina, or Monterey, then an 'Install' is not possible.

v6.14 has not been shown to work successfully with Windows-11 either.

"...if it would be worth it to try Lightroom Classic..."

For you- No!  Unless you intend to subscribe. If you try LrC with the Adobe Creative Cloud (even a trial) you convert 6.14 to the subscription version making more complications- for you. Old software (ie. v6) needs old operating systems. 

For only the new computer consider Adobe Bridge as an alternative to Lr for your organizing.

I'll have to look into bridge. I posted below what we are doing, and LR Classic sounds right, but it's a lot for just a catalog. You are right about Win 11. I saw quite a few post about it not working.

You're going to face more and more legacy issues trying to keep LR 6.14 on life support simply to organize photos. Modern Macs won't run it at all and, no doubt, Windows will eventually stop being an option too.

Good time to find a modern alternative to take you into the future since LR 6.14 has no future.

What specifically do you need from Lightroom's catalog that other DAM (Digital Asset Management) software, organisers and catalogs do not offer you?

[Tom236025635j1n]

If we could find a organizer that works like Lightroom we would switch. We just have a LOT of family photos, and other scrapbook type stuff that we scan, and add all the descriptions, tags, keywords, etc. Lightroom worked perfectly for that but I'd love to find a standalone program that does the same. We have Luminar 4 that looked good, but the catalog is nothing like Lightroom.

[Tom236025635j1n]

I'm giving up and moving to Adobe Bridge or Digikam. They both are doing just what we need.

I am also having the same issue and Adobe keeps referring me to their forums when I ask them about it. Does anyone have any suggestions for wha<spam link removed> I should ask them to do? Or, do you have a copy of the chat so I could see exactly what you wanted me to as<spam link removed>?

[Rob_Cullen]

@DJ Bravo what is your "Same Issue"?

Cannot download v6.14?

Cannot reset Activations?

Provide some more details of your specific situation.

[noor271063253nw2]

Thank you, I used one of the above links, and the latest version of Lightroom was no 6 in sight.

@noor271063253nw2 and @dawid27467500jzyr and anyone else, the link in @Rob_Cullen's post still works (until the end of 2023)

[Rob_Cullen]

@noor271063253nw2   Perhaps you just clicked on my Screen-clip that indicated how the download links show in-

It was from one of the links that you provided in order for me to find the latest version of Lightroom, and it turned out that it was number 6 off the list when I followed one of the links that you provided in order to find it, which I found by following one of the links that you provided.

[bota27656702mkbf]

As a result, I am giving up and switching over to Adobe Bridge or Digikam. We need them both to be doing what they are doing right now.

[Fozia28155424y2jp]

My experience was that I used one of the links provided above to download the latest version of Lightroom, but when I tried to open it, there was no version 6 to be found. Please accept my sincere thanks once again.

How would you download Lightroom 6 from that connection?

[kglad]

the link to both mac and win versions still works.  try a different browser if you're having trouble with the download.

[Rob_Cullen]

Yes the link works for me.

And Version SIX.FOURTEEN is the very last and most stable of the (Perpetual) 6 Versions Lightroom.
