Sorry if this has been covered -

I have the stand alone LR6 and have recently purchased the PS & LR subscription version. Is there any thing I should be aware of before I convert/update to the new LRCC or what ever it is called? I have windows 8.

LR CC is not compatible with Windows 8 I see on the cloud list of apps for me. I can update LR Classic CC. So I guess my question is - is that something I should do and what are the benefits or down side?

Thanks

Blackmutt,

Before you do anything backup your LR6 Catalog so you can restore it. I use LR Classic CC as I do not have a need for the cloud version.

LR6 is not being upgraded and it does not have all of the features that LR Classic CC has.

Keep in mind that you can always start using LR classic CC before you import you existing catalog. You have so why not start using it.
