Lightroom Change Module Error...PLEASE...

OK I had installed the Beta version of Lightroom on my Mac using the latest version of OSX.



Today I went and downloaded the Trial version of the full software. I then install the software and I notice I only get the UPGRADE option. When I select this it seems to install, but then when I run it I get the following error:



''An error occured when attempting to change modules''.



If I click Ok and continue Lightroom launches but anything I click on gives me this same error. I even tried creating a new library.



On reading another post on a forum I removed/uninstalledLightroom (using CleanApp) and also repaired permissions using (DiskUtility). Rebooted and reinstalled, but I am unable to see the ''New Install'' option. I keep on getting ''Upgrade''.



What can I do to get a brand new installation going please.



Your help is greatly appreciated.

Option-Click start LR and you will get a dialogue to choose a Library or Create a New One, lower left. Choice is yours.

Nope I still get the same error message even if I do Option-Click and start LR.



Any other suggestions?

Are you holding down Option through the whole start? The Icon should then bounce and after clicking again give you the Library Dialogue.



You could also try deleting he .plst at user/Library/Prefernces/com.adobe.Lightroom.plist

Yes, a good place for additional info, John.



The LR Forum FAQ should really be the fiest place to start for answers to such questions.

Yes read through all the Adobe Lightroom troubleshooting steps. Did not see anything out of the blue that I have not tried, I am certainly not planning on reformatting my hard-drive!
