No option to install earlier versions of Lightroom Classic.

After rejoining Adobe CC I am unable to download and install earlier versions of Lightroom Classic. I have an older imac (Catalina) but when click on the 'more options' dots I only get 'Learn more'.

Hi rickshaw,

You have Catalina (MacOS 10.15) but the minimum requirement for Lightroom is Monterey (MacOS 12). There is no subscription based version of Lightroom Classic available for Catalina:

You can find Adobe download links to earlier versions of Lightroom here (for example Lightroom 6), but the earlier versions are unsupported, so you are on your own there:

Thanks for the reply. I thought version 11 or thereabouts would work with
Catalina, but probably I’ve been misinformed. Thanks for the info.

LrC 11 does work with Catalina (see https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/system-requirements/2022.html). I have read in these forums that if you call Adobe Tech Support and ask for a download link for LrC 11, they will send it to you.

So @rickshaw , by marking the reply correct, does this imply that Adobe has sent you the download link for LrC 11?

@dj_paige i know LRC 11 was compatible but I didn't think there was a way to get it, since the "previous version" option in the CC desktop app doesn't go back that far.  It'll be interesting to see if @@rickshaw is able to get a link for it.
