Can someone please point me in the right direction here before I have a melt down of epic proportions!

I've somehow ended up with both Lightroom 5 AND Lightroom CC on my laptop. Unbeknown to me I've been uploading and editing all of my images in Lightroom 5 rather than CC for which I pay a monthly subscription.

I'm sure there's an easy fix or a way to import my images into CC but I don't want to lose the edits/changes I've made in the process.

Any ideas? :confused:
 
I'm not a CC user so perhaps things have changed, but you should be able to just click File > Import from another Catalog, and select your v5 catalog.
 
I have been using CC for a while now and before that LR5. I am pretty sure when I installed CC, and opened it for the first time, it found my LR catalogue and upgraded it to work with CC. From that point I gave it a few weeks and then manually uninstalled LR5.

If you open CC, does it open your catalogue and can you see all the images you have been working on and importing?

It does now Anthony. My problem was i didn't realise I was still working on LR5. It was only when I couldn't find the new de-haze feature that I realised.

Anyway, I've now opened up LRCC and it's asked me if I want to use my LR5 catalogue and they've all transferred over.

Excellent, good news indeed :)
 
Light CC updated my catalogue, but like you I continued with 5 thinking I was in CC. I don't know why the installer doesn't remove 5. Why would we need the 2 versions?

I don't know. Even the icons were the same so I never knew anything different. Been paying for CC and not even using it!
