Adobe Application Manager

Bonjour, 

J’ai un problème avec Lightroom sur mon ordinateur, macOs Monterey
J’ai une licence permanente depuis 2017 mais depuis quelques semaines le message suivant s’affiche:
« L’application Adobe Application Manager, qui est nécessaire pour vérifier votre licence, est manquante ou endommagée" (voir capture d’écran ci-dessous)
L'application s’ouvre mais il m’est impossible d’éditer mes photos.
J'ai re-téléchargé le creative cloud mais cela n'a rien changé.
 
Merci d'avance pour votre aide.

    I suspect you are trying to 'Open' a Perpetual version of Lightroom (v6?) that used the (discontinued) Application Manager.

    You also have Lightroom-Classic showing in the Creative Cloud desktop App- This may only be a 'Trial' version.

     

    Lightroom v6 (Perpetual) will not 'open' with a Serial Number IF to have the CC Desktop App installed. (Lr6 will become a 'Subscription' version).

     

     

    Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.1.1, Photoshop 27.3.1, ACR 18.1.1, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.2 .

    Hi,

    Thank you for your message

    You are right I have been using Lightroom 6 so far, bought in 2017

    Thank you in advance

    First, if you have MAC Catalina or later, you cannot install LR 6. Simply not possible, Apple does not allow the installer file to work.

     

    If you have earlier versions of the operating system, then here are the steps:

    1. You have to uninstall the current Creative Cloud application.
    2. Optional, but a good idea, use the Creative Cloud cleaner tool
    3. Then install LR 6 from the original disk or download file, enter your serial number, and then it should work

    I've moved this from the Using the Community forum (which is the forum for issues using the forums) to the Lightroom Classic forum so that proper help can be offered.
