You can safely delete previews, Lightroom will regenerate them as needed. If you are sure they are for old versions of Lightroom, then yes they can be deleted. However, you didn't really say what ...

No guarantees either.

Yes, you can upgrade from Lightroom 3.4 to Lightroom 6. Doesn't matter if it is installed or not, as long as you have the Lightroom 3 serial number. As you have stated, there will never be any ...

it occurs to me that if you used a more powerful CPU, these delays that you are seeing in Lightroom would disappear. This particular CPU gets very low benchmark scores, and so I don't see this ...

As I said, looking only at the cost is not the only perspective; there are other perspectives. Yes, I said in my first post in this thread that there are many other options. It sounds like he is ...

If your only concern is the dollars leaving your wallet, then yes, this is the right perspective. If your concern is broader, and you want up to date features, more features than in LR 6, ongoing ...

There is absolutely no difference between disk and download of Lightroom 6. In either case you get the same software, and the same license, and the same requirement that YOU make sure you can find ...

There is another concurrent thread about heat causing problems with a laptop, but in this case the software is DxO. There is a lot of sensible comments in this thread, that applies to your case ...

While I don't doubt the truth of the statement, Lightroom refers to resolution as "pixels per inch". Lightroom gets it right.

You mean PPI (pixels per inch). You cannot be "exporting out of Lightroom at 300 dpi", there is no such thing, you can only be when exporting out of Lightroom at 300 PPI (pixels per inch)

None of us can say if you need the 20GB cloud storage or the 1TB cloud storage, or if it is worth it to you. You haven't really stated what needs you have, or what you will be doing with the ...

People use the same logic to say its Lightroom. People use the same logic to say its Excel. People use the same logic to say its their video editor. People use the same logic to say its some ...

Disregarding the fact that you are asking about this happening while using Photographic software, there are many discussions on the internet about Mac computers where the fan starts and runs hard ...

In Lightroom, you can select all the desired photos, then turn on AutoSync, make the WB change to one photo, and LR will apply the same WB change to all selected photos. Make sure to turn off ...

As already stated, the command in Lightroom after doing the sync is to select the desired photos (if they are not already selected), then Library->Previews->Build Standard Previews (or build 1:1 ...

Actually this has been present in every version of Lightroom I have used since version 2. Right-click on the "pages" you don't want and de-select them. Some people had the mistaken impression that ...

I'm pretty sure Adobe's web site lets you de-activate software from the "My Account" page.

If you registered your purchase with Adobe, or bought directly from Adobe, then your serial number and a link to download the software again ought to be on the Adobe web site under "My Account". If ...

I think this means that the THUMBNAILS are not updated immediately. I'm pretty sure the actual edits in the data base update immediately (or almost immediately). Nevertheless, I don't know of a way ...

I don't find it time consuming. Yes, it does take longer than just sliding a slider, but not objectionably long to me, and certainly less time than sending the photo to Photoshop, edit it there ...
