Why does Lightroom 4 crash with Apple Mac?

Hi,

My Lightroom 4 crashes with Apple Mac when I try to import photos from the card (or from the camera if I connect the camera to the computer). I use an apple mac. This is new, it didn't use to do this.
Many thanks for your help,

Alexis

You don't say what version of OS X you are using, but it you are using High Sierra, this is a known problem with LR 4 and High Sierra. More details are here: https://www.lightroomqueen.com/lightroom-macos-high-sierra-compatibility/

The best solution is to upgrade your Lightroom to LR 6.14 or Lightroom Classic CC. Both of these options require you to pay money to Adobe for the newer software.

Thanks for this, sadly this is the case, and I'll have to upgrade!

Best wishes
