Download Lightroom 4

[Hartmut5FC3]

Dear all,

I work so far with LR Version 4 on Win and got now an iMac. Has someone an idea, where I can download this version? Searching already some time bit didn't find a Link which is still working.

Many thanks,

Hartmut

I don't think you can find a download file of Lr 4. Even if you could find a file to download, most likely Lr 4 cannot be installed on a new iMac. (What operating system is on this new iMac?)

[Hartmut5FC3]

Thanks for your fast answer! It's Big Sure 11.4.

Lr 4 cannot be installed on Big Sur

Thanks. Do you know if LR5 can be installed? Per what I have found out should be fine, but would like to be sure.

Ah and then: do you know if this can be downloaded somewhere?

Lr 4 and Lr 5 and Lr 6 all cannot be installed on Big Sur

😕 this means then I have to buy the 249€ subscription version per year because I'd like to have the Classic Version?

Lightroom Classic can be installed on Big Sur.

Photoshop + LR is 11.99€ a month. It's called "Creative Cloud Photography plan", or "Creative Cloud pour la Photo" or similar wherever you are. 

You can get Photoshop alone for 23.99€ a month.  No, I don't understand either.

So no, LR5 cannot be installed under Big Sur because the installer isn't 64-bit. So you simply boot into an older (pre-Catalina) OS, do the install and then yes, LR5 will run under Catalina with some issues from this old and no longer supported version of LR. For example, Maps module simply will no longer work. But if you really must run LR5 on Big Sur, you can do so.

Thanks all. I decided now to go for the 11,99€/month.

Thanks again for your help,

Hartmut
