That's ok. An update can only be installed if the corresponding program is also closed.

Or I have misunderstand your question.If yes, please describe your issue mor detailed.

What your are doing exactly.

Whats's the exact error message?

Which version of Lightroom and MacOS do you use?

My System: Intel i7-8700K - 64GB RAM - NVidia Geforce RTX 3060 - Windows 11 Pro 25H2 -- LR-Classic 15 - Photoshop 27 - Nik Collection 8 - PureRAW 5 - Topaz Photo

Yeah, error message says I have to close LRC as it's in conflict with trying to update it, which is an infinite loop of sh*t.

 

Lightroom Classic version: 11.3.1

MacOS Monterey 12.5

 

How do I update LRC if it's closed??

It's updating now. Thanks for your help!

 

Adobe: as a newbie to Mac, I'd've appreciated LRC disaplaying a notification to say that the update would be triggered by a restart. 


Update done!

 

I open LRC, click Help to check the version, but now the Help drop down menu bar is impossible to close.

 

Does no one test software any more?

 

macOS is full of oddities too.
