You are talking apples and he is talking oranges. Much different than being a troll. Instead the two of you are talking at each other instead of to each other about two slightly different things.

He challenged you to show the "save" or "save as" command under "file" in the standalone Lightroom 6 (or previous), Classic or CC before the name change. It isn't there. But newly renamed Lightroom Mobile/now Lightroom CC does have a save and save as command in the menu.

Thanks Jerry. Bill's comments about mobile being a different animal along with this "save" exercise has got me thinking about this mobile idea. I've done maybe 50 edits now in a camera to phone to social media workflow. I couldn't function with a tablet or a phone as my primary computer, but certainly that's how a younger generation is going. I've been saying now for a few years that most photography doesn't need PhotoShop. I guess I'll have to "eat" from the same idea and recognize Adobe has the vision to push the idea to the point you don't even need a full-scale computer ...

I think Lightroom is a brilliant piece of software. In a year or few when their product line up settles, hopefully this confusing roll-out will be forgotten. Users will learn the new terms and will come to grips with the limitations and the capabilities of a mobile platform (if they want to use it). If the mobile platform can let me define some presets, I think I could see going JPEG-only and could post from anywhere rather everything having to run through my desktop and all the time-delay associated with that edit workflow.

If Adobe can make 'mobile' part of being a photographer like their other tools, now that would be brilliant, even if they had to skip export and make it save in the mobile product ...

Good grief, with all these problems with Lightroom, and Cloud this and that, I'll be using Photoshop CS6 until the Sun consumes the Earth! (And I really would like the improved Content Aware Fill and the like in Ps CC).

I think you have the version for mobile devices. If you working on a PC you want the Classic. There is LR cc for mobile and LR Classic cc for PC. It was a very recent confusing change in names.

Ah - Ha!!! :-)

You took note of that as well.... Almost every "photographers HELP" forum contains Pages after Pages of problems with LR -- ((Printed out it is larger than the republican Senate tax bill.))

Me??

Photoshop CS-5 Here... I shoot in RAW -- Up-Load to the computer, in a file folder of My Choice, and Hard Drive of My Choice -- Open through "Bridge" as RAW -- Work over the "first edits" -- Open in CS-5, and some "this and that" with NIK Software - Back into CS-5 and crop for Printing, save as a TIF, and crop down for jpg.... "Watermark" the jpg's for posting.

I did have "Lightroom" once -- Fiddled around with it for two weeks ... Never Ever really got my 70 year old mindset around it.... ended up giving it to my son.... He likes it, He uses it.... Good for him.

Me??

Old School -- Thank You.

Thanks from me too. I recently purchased a D850. Have only used PS. Have a new computer coming to handle raw. Looked into LR just yesterday to determine what was needed with my new set up station and was confused by CC. You have all solved the mystery for me. Thank you so much.

Pretty much the same story with me. I learned on Ps CS5 at adult school, bought CS6 for my PC at home just before Adobe went CC. Have it set so it functions more like CS5. I fiddled with Lr 3.5 for a month or two and could not get into the Library Database. I'm used to creating, moving, and copying files and folders with Windows (3.11, 98SE, XP, Vista, 7, 10). Also I understand Save and Save As, so hell with Export or Import. So I never really got to the good features of Lr. But other than the cataloging I can do everything with the much more powerful Ps anyway, just a bit more slowly I might guess. And I'm a bit old school with lots of things. I just started using my first Blu-Ray player about a month ago. My newest film camera is a Pentax K2 DMD (I think that came out just after the K1000), it is a really fancy and pricey version of the earlier K2. I use a 2-channel stereo receiver not an AV 5.1 system. At 63 I'm limited as to how much fussing over new stuff I'll do. Though I'm open minded to new visual styles of art and I listen to music I never heard before. Both current and Pre-War.

I just finished a questionnaire from Adobe about Lightroom CC and Lightroom Classic. Over and over again they referred to Lightroom CC as Lightroom CC Mobile. They should have kept the name Lightroom Mobile in my opinion. So to answer Yankeepappas question, You don't have those options in Lightroom CC because it's the Mobile version designed to work on cell phone pics etc. It's not the same as Lightroom Classic CC which used to be Lightroom CC.

Yes it does--if you mean in LR classic.
