Camera raw 4.6 and Lightroom 2.3.

[creativepro]

I have lightroom 2.3.
Photoshop CS3
Mac 1'.5.6.

I downloaded the most recent camera raw for Photoshop CS3 i.e 4.6.
installed with no fuss into Photoshbop CS3 and moved camera raw version 4.5 to my desktop

I now hear that camera raw 4.6. is incompatible with raw conversion engine used in Lightroom 2.3.

I also downloaded the newest camera profiles which was installed successfully in Photoshop CS3. Though I don't think I need these as my camera is not a recent version. ( not sure whether I should uninstall this?)

Since the installation I have not used Lightroom or Photoshop. What happens in the above cirumstances. ie what does it mean for Lightroom that I have camera raw 4.6. installed instead of 4.5.?

Should I trash 4.6. and move 4.5. back to Photoshop plug-in folder?

Just to add I mostly use Lightroom as my main editor. Photoshop CS3 is mostly used through Photoshop smart filter for some 3rd party plugs such as noiseware and Topaz Adjust etc.

4.6 is the latest ACR version for CS3, and is the right one to have installed - the newer 5.x are for CS4. Here's the blurb on what it actually means to you: http://www.lightroomqueen.com/blog/2''8/12/18/lightroom-22-compatibility-with-cs3/
