There is no longer any on-line activation for Lr 6. To do the move, you will need to follow these instructions https://www.lightroomqueen.com/how-move-lightroom-to-new-computer/ and then to install Lr 6 you will need to use the offline activation method https://community.adobe.com/t5/download-install-discussions/lightroom-6-on-a-new-pc/m-p/14638713#M580921

Hi all,

I have been a happy user os Lightroom 6 for years. A few days ago my SSD broke down which ment I had to get a new clean SSD with a clean Windows 10 on it. How do I install LR 6 again?

I found an installer for it (not on Adobe's pages), but when it tells to log in during installation it says I should update the browser..? Everything is up to date and I can't update anything. How to fix this? And how do I install LR 6?

Hi,

I had to re-install LR6 since I needed to get a new laptop. I used the CD for the setup with the respective serial number. Installing the software was succesful, but when I start it, a window pops up where I'm asked to sign in with my Adobe ID. I've done so multiple times now, but I'm still stuck at where I launch LR6 and I'm asked again to sign in. I'll post some screenshots below to help explain my problem:

After agreeing, the window closes but nothing else happens. When I try to start LR6, I end up exactly at the same step again where I'm asked to sign in.
I'm quite frustrated about this since I loved the workflow in my LR6 and it worked flawlessly before switching to the new laptop, and I would be very happy to get it running again. Any ideas what to do?

Best & many thanks in advance

Pascal
