SKALLAGRIMSON Adobe Lightroom 1.4 pulled, users asked to downgrade Adobe has pulled the recently released Lightroom 1.4 update from its Web site and is asking users to downgrade to version 1.3.1 of the photography workflow tool. Company officials say the decision to pull the update was based on the following bugs: EXIF Time Stamp Error There is an error in the EXIF time stamp update technology that causes Lightroom to believe that the files are out of sync with the correct time stamp as displayed in Lightroom. Any ensuing metadata update will attempt to incorrectly modify the EXIF time stamp in the original raw file itself. This is the only metadata field that Lightroom will write to an original proprietary raw file. This error will not impact the integrity of your image data. The Camera Raw plug-in also will incorrectly change the EXIF time stamp in files converted by the plug-in. The information written to the XMP sidecar files or XMP metadata in the converted files will remain correct. Olympus Conversion Error There is an error in converting Olympus JPEG files to other formats in Lightroom 1.4 and the Camera Raw 4.4 plug-in. In order to downgrade, delete the Lightroom application in the Application's folder and then delete the /Library/Receipts/Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.pkg file. Reinstall Lightroom 1.3.1. http://www.macfixit.com/ (Version 1.4) |
