I've Got The Upgrade CC (2015) Blues

JimMcClain · Jun 16, 2015

Living here in Feather River Country (Plumas County, CA) is no picnic when it comes to spending time online. I got up early today to try to find some morning pictures - a rare feat for a guy who usually doesn't arise until after 10am). I got excited about some I captured, so I was anxious to get home and import into Lightroom.

As soon as I turned the computer on, I get a notification from Adobe that there were 2 apps to upgrade - to Photoshop CC (2015) and Lightroom CC (2015). I knew it would take a little while for PS because I have been running CC (2014), but LR has been at (2015) for weeks and figured that should only take a couple minutes.

Over an hour later and it's still doing the upgrades. I realize I don't live in an area that has lightening fast DSL, but I can still watch Netflix movies streaming without any issues. This is the worst thing about Adobe Creative Cloud.

Whine, whine, whine... Thanks for letting me vent. As I was grouching, the upgrades have finished. So I'll shut up now. SeeeeeeYA!

Sorry to hear that Jim. Hopefully that new DeHaze slider on LR CC will be worth the wait for you. Oh and the brushes now have a black and a white slider, so you can paint them too.

I'll be upgrading mine when I get home this afternoon, so hopefully a lot of the traffic to their servers will be finished.

I've fooled with the Pano and HDR, seems to work well without having to leave LR to do those functions now.

Not sure I have seen dehaze, but i could use it.

Braineack, the dehaze was in the update that came out today. The others have been in there a while and I agree work well.

I was watching a video from KelbyOne this morning that now the PS CC has a new check box in Pano to do a content aware fill of the transparent parts. They were saying that it is supposed to do a better job of fill than you could by selecting areas yourself. (That's what they say, but I'll have to try it out to see.)
