Close Lightroom and the PDApp, open the new Creative Cloud App and Lightroom 6 should appear in the Creative Cloud launcher app library as 'Lightroom Classic'.Ħ. I found I can't launch the Lightroom 6 app from the MacOS shortcut.ĥ. I kept trying to open the Lightroom app from my MacOS library, but I would run into the same 'connect to the internet' message. I then installed the latest version of the Creative Cloud from the Adobe website. I chose 'connect later' and it proceeded with the Lightroom 6 installation.Ĥ.

I used the dowloaded installer, signed in to Adobe, input my serial key, and ran into the 'connect to the internet' message. I used this link to download the Lightroom 6 DMG file ' Adobe Lightroom 6.14 + CC 2015.14 Complete ** 'ģ. I downgraded to a clean install of MacOS Mojave.Ģ. I took some steps from another user here and got stuck, but I think I found the right procedure from installing from scratch.ġ. I believe that I finally got my standalone copy of Lightroom 6 installed and activated on a new (to me) Macbook pro 2017.

The activation part that had been saying 'please connect to the internet' seems to find its way via the Creative Cloud app. Make a clean install of the Creative Cloud app.Ĥ. Note: don't download the latest LS11 that's available from Adobe until August 2022, it's 6.12 and won't accept the patch.ģ. Install the LR6.0 as originally purchased. Uninstalling that CC did not solve this and I was left with an unusable LR.Īnyway, the answer that actually worked, after downgrading MacOS was this:ġ. CC somehow took over my LR6 and insisted on rebranding it to LR2015.CC and declaring it unlicensed and function-limited (no develop mode). My initial loss of LR6, by the way, was caused by installing Creative Cloud and then logging in to an enterprise CC account for Photoshop. So that means downgrading from MacOS Catalina to Mojave, though it should theoretically be possible to upgrade again after finishing with the installer. It was really bad trouble reinstalling LR6 actually because it turns out that although the app is 64 bit, the installer is 32 bit.

In case this helps anyone, I was having trouble with this too but managed to fix it.
