1. You can find the 24-digit serial number (e.g. 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000) on the back
cover of your DVD holder. Online or Electronic Software Delivery(ESD) customers will find
the serial number both on the receipt page from the online store, and in the e-mail
confirmation you received. You will be asked for this number when installing Photoshop
Lightroom.
2. If you purchased an upgrade license you will also need to enter a Lightroom 1, Lightroom 2 or
Lightroom 3 serial number. This is not required if Lightroom 1, Lightroom 2 or Lightroom 3
is already successfully licensed on the current computer.
3. If your new 24-digit serial number does not work, please contact Adobe Customer Service at
800-833-6687 for assistance. For those outside North America, please contact Adobe
Customer Service in your region for assistance.
Upgrade Notes
To update your Lightroom 1, Lightroom 2 or Lightroom 3 catalog simply launch Lightroom
4 and you will be able to select and upgrade your previous Lightroom catalog.
The Lightroom 4 catalog upgrade process does not erase or remove your previous
Lightroom catalogs. If you wish to try the Lightroom 4 30-day trial by upgrading your
existing catalog, you may always return to earlier versions of Lightroom and continue
using your previous catalog.
o
NOTE: Any changes or work completed in your catalog once it has been upgraded
to work with Lightroom 4 will not be available in previous versions of Lightroom.
o
NOTE: The upgrade process will modify the image preview information of an
upgraded catalog.(This information is stored in the .lrdata file that is located
adjacent to a catalog file in the file system) Returning to a previous version of
Lightroom will require that the previews be re-rendered. This can be a lengthy
process for those with hundreds of thousands of images.
Upgrading a Library from Photoshop Elements 6, Photoshop Elements 7, Photoshop
Elements 8, Photoshop Elements 9, or Photoshop Elements 10 for Windows requires that
Photoshop Elements be installed on the computer at the time of upgrade.
Upgrading a Library from Photoshop Elements 9 or Photoshop Elements 10 for Mac
requires that Photoshop Elements be installed on the computer at the time of upgrade.
Lightroom 4 Beta catalogs may be upgraded using the same methods available for
Lightroom 1, Lightroom 2 or Lightroom 3 catalogs.
If you attempt to upgrade the same Lightroom catalog more than once, Lightroom will
inform you of the location of the previously upgraded catalog.
General Program Notes
Known Issues

possible threats. Please instruct Norton Antivirus 2012 to exclude Lightroom 4 files from
its scan.
McAfee Virus Scan prevents emails from being sent from Lightroom 4. Please instruct
McAfee Virus Scan to exclude Lightroom 4 files from its scan.

resolution of the PDF in the print driver can help mitigate this.

Working with Lightroom 4 and Adobe Photoshop Camera Raw
Lightroom and Photoshop Camera Raw share the same image processing technology to ensure
consistent and compatible results across applications that support raw processing.
Photoshop Camera Raw
Adobe applications must be updated with the latest Camera Raw plug-in in order to ensure
maximum compatibility with Lightroom 4 develop module settings. Photoshop users can update
the Camera Raw plug-in automatically using the Update tool listed under the Help menu. The
Camera Raw plug-in can also be downloaded and installed manually by visiting the Adobe web
site:
Please follow the installation
instructions carefully.
Sharing Lightroom Settings with Camera Raw
By default, Lightroom‟s develop module settings are stored in Lightroom‟s database. In order to
ensure that Lightroom develop settings can be viewed by Camera Raw, the settings must be
written to the XMP metadata block for that file. This metadata is stored in an XMP sidecar file
(Imagename.xmp) in the current image directory of proprietary raw files or stored directly within
DNG files. To update images with the latest develop settings, choose the library module and
select the group of target images. Choose the shortcut Command(Ctrl) + S to save the settings
to the XMP metadata block.
Viewing Lightroom settings in Camera Raw
Before working in conjunction with Lightroom and Camera Raw please set the Camera Raw
preference to: Save image settings in: Sidecar ".xmp" files. By default Camera Raw will display
the image adjustments exactly as performed in Lightroom‟s develop module.
Viewing Camera Raw settings in Lightroom
Raw files edited by previous versions of Camera Raw will maintain their previous appearance
when imported into Lightroom. Note: Those files must have been edited with the preference set
to Save image settings in: Sidecar “.xmp” files in order for Lightroom to respect the previous edit.
Files edited in Camera Raw after importation into Lightroom can be updated in Lightroom by
choosing the “Read Metadata from Files ” from the Metadata file menu. Note: This menu option
is only available in the Lightroom Library.
Additional Notes on Camera Raw and Lightroom
Camera Raw will only read the current settings for the primary image in the Lightroom
Library. Virtual Copy adjustments and Snapshot adjustments will not be displayed or
available in Camera Raw
