There has been much confusion forums about not being able to get LR6 as an upgrade or standalone product, so I thought I would post how I did it.
Steps are as follows:
1. Go to
www.adobe.com2. Scroll to very bottom and click on change region if necessary (I'm in Australia so had to) then return to this page.
3. Scroll to the very bottom again and click on Products (right next to change region).
4. Adobe products are listed. Some have Join in the RH column (means CC) and some have Buy (means standalone licence). Click on the "Buy" for LR6. Do
NOT click on the text "Photoshop Lightroom 6" as this will take you to the LR6 CC!
5. If you wish to upgrade from an existing standalone licence for LR 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 click on the "I want to buy" dropdown and change it to upgrade. The price will now reflect the upgrade price, not the full price. Then click the "I own" select product dropdown and specify which version you already own. Later it will prompt you for the licence number of the version you already own.
6. Choose how many licences you wish to buy.
7. Click Add to cart
8. Your cart is shown with your intended acquisitions listed. You can edit or remove any items. If it shows the full version I think you can edit it here to change it to upgrade. Again you will have to specify which verison you already have.
9. Click Checkout when you are done and ready to buy. Note that you will need to login to buy. Be careful not to Login to Creative Cloud.
In Australia the full version is Au $186 and the upgrade (from LR5) is Au $99. In the USA they are US $149 and US $79 respectively. In the UK they are 103.88 pounds (couldn't find the pound sign) and 59.09 pounds.
Note: I had some problems at checkout time because I run script blockers (eg NoScript) and privacy extensions (eg Ghostery) on my browser (Firefox and Safari) and the Adobe pages seem to have many bits and pieces from many places which ran foul of these. In the end I just made sure I was only at the Adobe site and disabled these to get the checkout to work.
Hope this helps to prevent any more problems people have downloading LR6 standalone.
