I can?t get past the first click and a Lockup asking for LR on my iPhone. Something I have severe disdain for. I will try to find the original serial numbers. Does anyone know how long ago LR1 was released? I paid for every odd numbered realease through #5. Those were the only ones with useful new features that I cared about. STITCHING IN #5 is AWESOME! Searching for those numbers! Wayne in the B. R. Mountains of NC!
