Hi folks,
I need some advice. I have been putting off this upgrade as I am nervous about loosing photos, etc and needed my scanner until now. I know Monterrey is out but seems to glitchy at the moment.
I am currently on the last version of Lightroom 6. I am running a 2016 Mac on the latest version of Mojave. I am going to finally get a subscription and move to Lightroom Classic. I also plan on moving to MqcOS Big Sur as it is supported.
After I run Time Machine back-up on a couple drives, Should I:
1. Write down the catalog location for Lightroom 6. Upgrade to Big Sur. Then buy a photography subscription, install Lightroom Classic and then hopefully get Lightroom Classic running?
Or
2. Write down the catalog location, try and update to the previous version of Lightroom Classic that runs on Mojave, as I think the last release won’t work on Mojave? (Is this possible?), get Lightroom Classic running, then upgrade to Big Sur, then fully upgrade Lightroom Classic.
I am aware I need some back ups in the scenarios above also.
Thanks for any advice,
Nick
