Hi woodysk

Greetings.

  • You will need to read and write permissions on the Adobe folders manually.

Please follow the steps below:

  • Right-click on the icon in the Finder and select the 'Go - To' folder option.
  • You will get a text box, type in the following command and then press the 'return '. (Don't miss ~ symbol)
    • ~/Library
  • Then go to the Application Support > Adobe.
  • Right-click on the Adobe folder, then select the GetInfo.
  • Expand the section sharing & permissions.
  • Click on the padlock icon in the lower corner on the right. Enter your administrator user name and password when you are prompted, and then click OK.
  • Please click on '+' symbol, it will open the list of user accounts.
  • Add all of the user accounts and then give permission to "Read & write" to all user accounts. (If not agree, just add currently logged in username and administrator)
  • Click the gear icon and select apply to closed. Close the dialog box for information.
  • Then launch Lightroom application and check.

Let me know if still face you any issue.
