I bought Lightroom 6 sometime in 2017. Now my previous computer broke and lightroom went with it. Well, no problem, I thought, I can download it back from the creative cloud to my new computer. But now it turned out that it can no longer be downloaded. What are my chances now? Can I get compensation or a refund for something for I can no longer use the product I bought and paid for? I didn't get any notice that the download file should be saved to yourself, because adobe no longer offers it for download. What now?

This trusted site has been disabled. Clicking the download linke there produces this message

Starting with 12/31/2023, Adobe has ended support for downloading Lightroom 6.14. This means that you'll not be able to download Lightroom version 6.14.

It is a sad fact that obsolescence will affect all of us at some time. (I recently had to upgrade my Graphics card)

The 'download' cut-off date of 31/12/2023 was advertised in the forums for some time but if not noticed there it puts you in this annoying situation. There is no support (or compensation) to be had from Adobe for software that is ~7 years old. It is not certain, but even activating Lr6 to run it on a new computer system (if you can find a download) may not be possible now.

The way forward is to subscribe to the Photography Plan (20GB) and upgrade to Version 13, now called "Lightroom-Classic" (a big advance on v6).

@ BUY PHOTOGRAPHY PLANS

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 .

Let me ask you something.

You upgraded your GPU because nVidia/AMD disabled your previous one?

I don't think so.

It was you decision because you wanted something better.

Which is definitely not the case here.
OP is happy with Lightroom 6 and just want to get something he paid for with his own money.

And he just can't.

Imagine you are living in a house you bought with your own money.

And one day building company who build it came to you and say "Move out, we decided that the house is obsolete and will be destroyed - buy yourself a new one".

Will you still be convinsing everyone that it's ok?

I agree that this is how software companies are acting now and there is not much we can do, but it's definitely very far from "Ok"!

Hello Adobe Community. I know I'm a little late in 2024 with the question about Lightroom 6. I have an old IMac on which I can't install the latest macOS and that's why I need Lightroom6 for that. When I wanted to download today I saw that it has no longer been available since 2024. Does anyone else have the .dmg for Lightroom6 on their hard drive? Thank you in advance Marcel

Do yourself a favor and save this downloaded file somewhere that you can find it, if you ever need it again in the future.

Hi dj_paige and thanks for the quick answer. I tried but get the following message when I click on the link: Starting with 12/31/2023, Adobe has ended support for downloading Lightroom 6.14. This means that you'll not be able to download Lightroom version 6.14.

I recently had to purchase a new computer. I have been unable to find my Lightroom 6.0 CD to reinstall and the adobe site tells me I can no longer download. Can anybody advise how I can get a CD for Lightroom 6.0?

Because you are asking for a CD, I think you mean Lightroom Classic and not Lightroom? I've moved your post from Photoshop to Lightroom Classic, but we can move it again if I'm wrong.
