Apple gave us a new one, which Big Dude promptly sold, bought a pc replacement and pocketed the extra $700. Like AngelaBeth said, LR is for PC or Mac.

Just adjust it to the gray card and then save the curve. You just open the curve or match it every time. Saves a lot of time. I love Photoshop and Lightroom both.
