Which versions of Lightroom Classic are compatible with macOS Catalina?
Download Adobe Lightroom for macOS 10.14 or later and enjoy it on your Mac. The cloud-based service for people who love photography, Lightroom gives you everything you need to edit, organize, store, and share your photos across desktop, mobile, and web. Adobe Lightroom 6 will not install on macOS 10.15 Catalina, because even though Lightroom 6 itself is 64-bit code, it uses installation and licensing components that are incompatible. However, if Lightroom 6 is already installed on an earlier version of macOS and that’s upgraded to Catalina, Lightroom 6 will run. It ended up being an OS problem and not an Adobe Lightroom issue. The Catalina version that I had (10.15.3) had to be removed and replaced with the newest OS. Four hours later and Lightroom was again operating as it should. Thanks to the Adobe service agents who were able to spot the problem. I still have the same Mac, just an updated OS, and the software actually runs fine on Catalina once installed. However the 10 minutes it would take them to have a developer recompile the installer app from 32 to 64 bit is too much of an opportunity for Adobe to take more money out of me rather than have me as a happy customer.
Lightroom Classic 9.x and Lightroom Classic 8.4.1 work with macOS 10.15 (Catalina) but have these known compatibility issues. You may want to remain on your current version of macOS until these issues have been resolved.
Adobe strongly recommends that customers do their own testing on a non-production partition to ensure that new operating systems work with their current hardware and drivers (printing, and so forth).
If you do encounter issues not already documented here, feel free to report them on our feedback site.
Are legacy or perpetual versions of Lightroom Classic compatible with macOS Catalina?
No, older versions of Lightroom Classic were neither designed nor tested to work on macOS Catalina. They are not supported in any way for use on macOS Catalina.
Adobe does not recommend that customers using old versions of Lightroom Classic upgrade to macOS Catalina.
Older versions use 32-bit licensing components and installers. Therefore, they cannot be installed and activated after upgrading to macOS Catalina. Although upgrading to macOS Catalina with an older version already installed on your computer may allow the app to function in some capacity, you will not be able to reinstall or activate the app after the macOS upgrade.
Before upgrading to macOS Catalina, you may uninstall the older versions as the uninstaller will not work after upgrading. If you have already upgraded to macOS Catalina, you can use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to uninstall older versions.
Adobe has discovered the compatibility issues listed below with running Lightroom Classic 8.4.1 or later with macOS 10.15 (Catalina).
