    @sevencrossing: Pot is now legal in many US states - that might be it?

    On my old machine everything seems to run a lot faster, but the Facial Recognition feature does take a long, long time. I quickly found out it was better to take one shoot at a time, as the stacks that Lightroom suggested had quite a lot of errors at first, but got better as I went along. Not nearly done by far though, this will take a while until I got all known faces tagged :-)

    Apologies for hijacking this, but I think a few of you on this thread may have some experience. With Aperture's days winding down, I believe I will now migrate my library (17k+ images) to LR and PS in the cloud. How much pain am I looking at (in terms of both the migration and the learning of the new interface)? I've been dreading it, but given the sneak peeks of the Photos app, I don't believe I can stay with Apple.

    If you have a fast computer, not too much
    a fast internet connection will be good for looking at all the online help

    If you like me have identified faces on your entire Aperture library, it is a BIG deal.

    However, you can choose to either a) import from scratch, in which case 17K images is not that bad, or b) install the LR plug-in for importing from Aperture, and use that. That is painless, and it explains what you can take with you.

    Yup, tried that, it starts at the correct page for about 1/2 second then flips to 404 page not found. I have three machines and it is the same on all three which is why I asked the question here.

    Didn't you know, KR only uses a D40 on default jpeg settings. ;)
    If I take a good photo it's not my camera's fault.

    Thanks Seven, I take for sure then that it doesn't want me to upgrade. X(

    Excuse my ignorance but would having Lightroom CC cause any issues using tether capture if you do not have internet access at the location you are shooting? Is the locally installed program all you need for this?

    @sevencrossing: It is wierd because all other links to other products work as they should, it is only LR that doesn't - whatever way I try to get it. I had the pop-up telling me an upgrade is available and it even 404'd me then! Whatever, I give up.

    @dpidude: From what I unnerstan about shooting tethered in lightroom, I don't expect you to have any problem at all using CC tethered off-line. I do shoot tethered myself.

    There shouldn't be any problem. The internet access is only required for registration checks every 30 days, IIRC.

    @spray, have you cleared your cache and reset your cookies? Do you allow cookies from Adobe?

    Hi spraynpray,
    Just log out of CC, then log back in again, that launches the upgrade
    A note from Adobe prior to launch would have made it a whole lot easier

    Just to clarify what MiniD3 says, You have to go into the iCloud menu There is a small gearwheel on the top right hand side, press this and you will see preferences in the menu, press this and you then be able to to sign out Re-sign in and all works Hopefully I agree with Mini D3 Adobe could have made it clearer.

    Right, now I am starting to maybe see a possible problem: I don't have CC, I have LR5.7 installed but I got an upgrade pop-up. When I clicked on that I got 404'd. I then tried every other way of getting the upgrade and got the same result - error 404. If the problem is that the upgrade is only for CC users (I thought CC upgraded silently in the background), then why am I able to use PS (and other program) links normally?

    Yeah, beats me. I'll try what @Ironheart suggests as he usually knows his onions.

    Wow scary to hear Lightroom CC is such a RAM pig. Everyone is okay using 16GB of RAM then? Can't wait to upgrade my computer I've been saving up for months now.... :(

    Looks like I'll be sticking to my old LR5.7 for a good while then.

    If I keep using Lightroom I'll be switching off the GPU acceleration. It takes forever to load D810 RAWs. I'm not sure why this was deemed acceptable for launch. Because of this I'm testing out Capture One instead and it loads D810 files like a champ. The RAW processing seems to be pretty stellar, although I've only edited a handful of images so far right now. I do like the interface of Lightroom better, especially the brushes I feel like I can tell what's going on better when I'm applying them. I'm sure once I'm more comfortable with C1 it will be less of an issue. Unless they fix the file loading issue, I may have to make the switch.

    It takes forever to load D810 RAWs.
    Is this when importing or when editing a file that has already been imported

    what is your computer spec?

    ( perhaps everyone could their computer spec when commenting on LR speed)
