Title: Where is Lightroom CC?
Post by: jnmoore on April 23, 2015, 06:56:18 pm

I installed it and can boot it from the Creative Cloud app but can't find it in my applications folder where the other Adobe versions are. I'd like to put it on my launch bar. Any ideas where I might find it? Searched the drive but no app found?

This is on a Mac? It should be in the /Applications/Adobe Lightroom folder.

The first 3 folders in your /Applications folder may all be Adobe folders (one for Adobe Application Manager, one for Adobe Creative Cloud, and one for Adobe Lightroom) - what a damned mess.

Yes its an iMac. There is one folder labelled ADOBE in the Application folder but it only contains Acrobat, help and Flash player etc. all the other Adobe apps I have their own folder with the app and other things in it. The exception is LR5 that sits just as a single application. LRCC is working fine so far but its a mystery where it is?

Have you tried typing "Lightroom" into the Spotlight search?

You won't find Lr CC in "Finder" on your Mac. 

If you look in "Finder" you'll see a new Adobe Lightroom folder with an icon identical to the Lr 5 icon. 

LR CC is cleverly hidden in there with the same old icon called "Adobe Lightroom.app

It is named "Adobe Lightroom" not "Adobe Lightroom CC". Should be in your Applications folder.

Use the Launchpad app (the rocket ship symbol), which gives you access to all apps on the computer.  That is were I found it on both machines.  Easier than using the finder.

Once you put it in your Dock the pain goes away no matter how you get there.   :D

If things get too frustrating you can also launch Lr CC from the glorious CC app itself (under apps)
