Can I still update to Lightroom 6.14 or is too late? If too late, which plan would you advise to take? Thanks

    It is still possible to purchase Lightroom 6. It costs $79 in the US or local currency price. Go to this link:

    Shopping Cart

    The price of the full version is normally shown at the check-out but you can use the pull-down menu to switch to the cheaper upgrade price if you already own Lightroom 5 or an earlier version. Lightroom 6 is the final perpetual licence and it is no longer being updated by Adobe. So be aware that as modern operating systems get updated there is a risk it could become redundant.

     

    If you wish to remain completely up to date and have support, if needed, its best to subscribe to one of the photography plans starting at $9.99pm or local currency price.

     

    UPDATE Adobe no longer sells Lightroom 6

    Just wondering, what is your reasoning for LR6 when you have great options like Capture One Pro? They just announced a new version coming out and if you order it today you can get both the current version and the upcoming version for the same upgrade price. Personally I think it is better then LR, for the most part, and it will never block access to your work.

    Make sure you understand that there will never be updates to Lightroom 6.14 — no bug fixes, no features added, no new camera support, no new lens support, and no support if your operating system changes and LR 6.14 won't run (there is already one report that it won't run on the next version of OSX which is OSX 10.14)

    If that scares you, you can purchase (actually subscribe) to the current version of Lightroom (as of today, it is Lightroom 7.4) by purchasing the Photography Plan from Adobe. This plan will be updated regularly with new features, new camera and lens support, and bug fixes.

    I had a critical failure on my main PC and had to upgrade. I had a LR6.0 installer, which I used to re-install LR. Now if I look for updates, it says that I've got the latest at 6.0. I've looked everywhere for the 6.14 update and it looks like it got deleted.

     

    Is there a way for me to get the 6.14 update at this point? I'm just trying to get my PC back to where it was before with the software I've purchased.

     

    Thank you.

    Also, if you already own an earlier version of LR 6, you can update to LR 6.14 for free. Download it from here: Download Photoshop Lightroom
