How do I update?
To update, go to Help menu > Updates or click the Update button in the CC app. The update servers take a while to push the updates around the world, to avoid overloading the servers. You can also open the Creative Cloud app, click the … icon (top right) and select Check for Updates to give it a nudge.
Is the book updated?
The eBooks for Adobe Lightroom Classic – The Missing FAQ and for Adobe Lightroom – Edit Like a Pro were updated for the August 8.4 and 2.4 changes, and can be downloaded immediately after purchasing. If you’re already a current Premium Member, the updated eBooks are available for download in your Members Area.
I found this very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Although the list of bug fixes here says ‘Lightroom Classic GPU unavailable on Win7 on graphics cards that don’t support DirectX12’, I can confirm that this fix also applies to non-Metal graphics cards on the Mac. After updating to 8.4.1, my Mid-2010 Mac Pro with ATI Radeon HD 5770 now shows ‘Your system automatically supports basic acceleration’ in the preferences.
