    In order to leverage the latest operating system features and technologies, Lightroom 6 requires Mac OS X 10.8 or above, or a 64 bit version of Windows 7, 8 or 8.1. Focusing on more modern operating systems and architectures allowed Adobe engineers to spend more time adding functionality requested by users, including additional advanced imaging features and improving general application performance.

    If you are on Mac OS X 10.7, or a 32 bit version of Windows, you will continue to be able to install and run Lightroom 5 and use Lightroom mobile. However, you will not be able to install Lightroom 6 until you upgrade to a supported operating system.

    If you are currently running Mac OS X 10.7, Apple offers a free upgrade (here) to a more current operating system. For Windows users, Microsoft has a how-to reference (here) to help you determine whether you are running a 32 or 64 bit version of Windows.
