Adobe hasn't spent much effort on supporting parallel installations of subscription and perpetual licenses, with an obvious bias. Adobe 'support' was worse than useless they actually deactivated a bunch of other perpetual licenses. Installing the Leica version of LR borked my Adobe perpetual license for LR6.

If you have already done this then I'm sorry I can't help and my work when my 3 months is up :-( If you installation was on as a trial then registering the serial number will unlock for permanent use. I had lots of trouble installing the perpetual version of LR6 but was resolved by entering the serial number shown in my Adobe account. Each folder now has a question mark? and I cannot open them.Īny know precisely how is the Leica LR supposed to work? Does Adobe not respect the Lecia LR sub if I was already a subscriber? Is there a way to contact Adobe or the people at Leica who handle the LR subscription? Worryingly LR has locked up my photo library. I searched but Adobe say there is no phone support for my product. Is there a way to check that LR is using my Leica TAN? Isn't Leica LR subscription indefinite, not just for a trial period? Now it appears, according to Adobe, that 3 months later my LR subscription has lapsed and I am being forced to subscribe to the annual Adobe Creative subscription. It worked fine and I was a happy LR user. With the Q came a LR sub so I uninstalled Creative Cloud and loaded Leica LR.

Before my Q came along I had an annual Adobe Creative Cloud subscription.
