Need Support for WOS Devices (Windows on Snapdragon)

[erwing5740674]

When will LrC delivered for Windows ARM based PC's (eg Surface)?

[Lukas32932965qu7j]

I'd really appreciate, if my paid service would have a proper version on arm64 for windows (snapdragon x plus/elite cpu's)

heyyy,

When can I expect lightroom classic for my samsung galaxy book4?  

I just bought it and I didn't know that this laptop doesn't support LC.

I already tried copying it from my other laptop on the new one but this doesn't work.

And I actually need it and also pay for it.....

In the market to grab a new upgraded laptop. The lack of support for this is the only main thing dissuading me from going on ARM, as it is my most used application on my Windows machine.

It would be great if Adobe could be upfront about plans for this (outside of NA)

[Susan26327301rplc]

Don't do it. Think of all your cataloguing. I foolishly bought one with
snapdragon chip. Luckily for me the laptop was faulty and I was able to
replace it with an Intel chip.


So back to lightroom classic. You can use lightroom cloud which is still
very good. But it is missing those crucial cataloguing elements.

If buying a new laptop I would avoid the new ARM ones as there are other
programs that won't work either like ON 1 and Topaz

I have a new PC (Surface Laptop) with a Qualcomm CPU, Snapdragon 12 Elite and installing LrC doesn't work. According to the support info, ARM CPU ́s are not supported. I'm using WIN 11 ARM64 24H2, which actually includes an emulation. A way to install LrC on this type of PC should be found urgently.

I hope for a solution soon, Martin

The Slideshow Module is broken on my Windows 11 ARM64 PC.

I have been told that the error message imndicating that the "Dynamic Link Media Server failed to launch" is due to this PC being an ARM64 device and that the Intel-based version of LrC 14 0.1 will run on these PCs but it will have problems.  Apparently that is what I have enocuntered depsite doing the various uninstalls/reinstalls that Adobe support had me try.

Have others encountered similar problems?

Having to pay a subcription app that has a very important module not working at all is very frustrating and disappointing.  The Slideshow Module would seem to be a very important module in an image management application.

@KSNelson: "the error message imndicating that the "Dynamic Link Media Server failed to launch" is due to this PC being an ARM64 device"

I get the same error when I enter the Slideshow module on my LR 14.0.1 running on an ARM device.

...but I'm still able to export the slideshow as PDF.

[KSNelson]

I will try that!

Thank you for letting me know about that.

when will lightroom classic run on ARM processors?

[GoldingD]

Not a clue, but apparently not this month

I am in the US and am running LrC on a Surface Pro 11 ARM64 machine.  For the most part, it works, and, as I understand it, it is in an emulation (Intel) mode.  However, the Slideshow Module does NOT work as the "Dynamic Link Media Server failed to launch."

[realmasters]

Thanks for the info @KSNelson . I heard that LRC could be installed in the US, but in Europe we don't even get the option via the Creative Cloud app.

I am now beyond frustration and into exasperation!

[Adam_Poliak3353]

Hey man I am about to purchase Samsung Book 4 was it already fixed? Can you install LrC there?

[John R Ellis]

@Adam_Poliak3353P: "Hey man I am about to purchase Samsung Book 4 was it already fixed? Can you install LrC there?"

It's still the case that Creative Cloud will only install LR (Intel) on ARM devices in the US.  Some people have had success manually copying the Intel installation from another computer.
