Are legacy/perpetual versions of Lightroom Classic compatible with macOS Ventura?

Lightroom Classic legacy/perpetual versions are not tested on macOS Ventura. They are not supported in any way for use on macOS Ventura.

Adobe does not recommend that customers using old versions of Lightroom Classic upgrade to macOS Ventura.

Older versions use 32-bit licensing components and installers. Therefore, they cannot be installed and activated after upgrading to macOS Ventura. Upgrading to macOS Ventura with an older version already installed on your computer may allow the application to function in some capacity; however, you'll not be able to reinstall or activate the application after the macOS upgrade.

Before upgrading to macOS Ventura, you may uninstall the older versions as the uninstaller will not work after upgrading. If you have already upgraded to macOS Ventura, you can use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to uninstall older versions.
