Lightroom 4

<p>Hi,<br>

I've downloaded the Demo version with the 30 days trail of Lightroom 4, it was opening my RAW files, after I've got the hard copy of the Lightroom and entered the Serial Number it stopped reading my RAW files!<br>

Any help please!</p>

<p>If you have a recent camera you may have to update Lightroom to recognise your RAW files, I know it sounds stupid but sometimes the demo is more advanced than what you get when you buy!</p>

<p>Have you got the latest Adobe Camera Raw converter installed?</p>

<p>the OP doesn't need standalone Camera Raw; LR comes w/ it's own built-in copy/version.</p>

<p>Go to adobe.com and download the latest version (4.2? 4.3?) and that should restore any 'can't read this particular camera's raw format' issue.</p>

<p>Which camera, Irvin? And which version of Lightroom?</p>

<p>(And as Howard says, it doesn't matter at all which version of Adobe Camera Raw - if any - you have on your machine).</p>

<p>Not possible unless you go out of your way to download and use versions out of sequence - it's always completely clear which version you're using.</p>

<p>Did you install the "hard copy" when you received it, or just register the serial number with the demo version you already had? That's all you had to do. Perhaps you installed an older version on top of a newer version. As others have said, just download the latest from Adobe (same place you got the demo) and then register the serial number from your package.</p>

You didn't need to install the copy on the disc. It was probably an older version. Download the latest version from adobe's

website.

<p>It was Lightroom 4 which the latest! Now I am trying to update my Lightroom 4 to Lightroom 4.2 from the website!<br>

Well my camera is Nikon D3100.<br>

Yes! I've got the Demo from Adobe and I preferred to get the hard cop shipped to me, I did already! I only typed in the Serial Number from the box!<br>

The problem is: The Lightroom not all the time reading my RAW files, I've went through some of my photos which it " Was " opening it, and now it's not recognizing it!!! That is really weird!!!<br>

Anyways! The update still running! Let me see what would going to happen!<br>

Thank you for all the answers</p>

 

<p>What options did you use when you imported the raw files?</p>

<p>I suggest you contact Adobe for help since Lightroom4 is their product.</p>
