Superb service from Skylum

I was delighted to see that an update for Luminar Neo with lots of exciting and useful features was available.Unfortunately I could not download the data to my iMac. Made contact with Skylum Services and Sofi gave technical advice. It was still not working.
Back to Sofi and further recommendations which did not solve the problem.I asked whether I should delete the original programme and Sofi sent full instructions and free software designed for this situation.
It worked and I now have the latest software and am beginning to learn the creative possibilities.
At all times Sofi was patient and caring and has great knowledge of the mysteries of the combination of Skylum and Apple software. Thank you Sofi!

USING LUMINAR NEO TO RESTORE OLD FAMILY HISTORY PHOTOS

I purchased Luminar Neo when I needed a software to "tidy up" old photos relating to a family history book the family was putting together.
It was simply amazing. Photos that were badly spot marked or full of creases came up like new with very little effort on my part. It even has the ability to colorise old black and white photos, and the colours are very realistic.
Recently when they had a free upgrade I had problems installing the plug-ins, and their support was quick and comprehensive, and the problem was soon solved.
A great software package by a great company.

I was unable to use the "Stitching"…

I was unable to use the "Stitching" element of the program. I emailed the company and they suggested I reload the program. After an unzip error, I recontacted the company. After 2 days and no response, I placed a complaint with my cc. The same or next day, I received an email recommending I reinstall a different download of the program. The program finally worked and I recontacted my cc and paid for the program.
