viramati Posted March 10, 2012 Share #1 Posted March 10, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have downloaded Lr4 as a trial (tried the beta version earlier with various problems) but would like to try it without effecting my present Lr3 catalogue but using the same images to try out in the Lr4. Is there a way I can safely duplicate the 3 catalogue and then update it to the 4 catalogue without effect the original so that I can keep using Lr3. Hope this is clear!! I want to do this as what I have seen so far with images uploaded into Lr4 it is very slow and unresponsive on my machine (17" macbook pro intel core 2 duo 2.66ghz 8gb ram) and still seems to have some other issues. thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stunsworth Posted March 10, 2012 Share #3 Posted March 10, 2012 When you open the old catalogue in LR4 it creates a copy and leaves the old one untouched. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmolinski Posted March 10, 2012 Share #4 Posted March 10, 2012 When you open the old catalogue in LR4 it creates a copy and leaves the old one untouched. This correct. No problems or any other issues with LR 3 catalogue. You can run both versions in parallel. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
