Edit in photoshop is greyed out in both LR3 and LR4

Sudenly the edit in photoshop option has been greyed out in both programs It has always worked and for no apparant reason that I can recall this has happened Can anyone advise what has caused this please

sonsteby,
You didn't describe any problem, except for not being able to re-install. And your problem is not the same as brownwood1 had.
Your problem is probably from passing a 16-bit file to Photoshop, and most of the filters only work on 8-bit files. You can change Bit Depth in your preferences:
or you can change mode in PS on an individual basis:

Edit in Photoshop CS5 greyed out in LR4 and LR3

Since one of the many upgrade to LR3 I have not been able to edit in photoshop, it is greyed out. I thought the upgrade to LR$ would deal with this but it has not. I have tried the upgrade to beta 6.7 but this does not help. Would removing CS5 and reinstalling help? Very frustrating.

Edit in photoshop is greyed out

I have read all the forums and search engine finds on this question:
Edit in Photoshop selection is greyed out in lightroom cc (also have Photoshop cc 2014)
I have tried all the suggested fixes ( registry edit, re-install in all various combinations , all of them )
Still will not function properly (Edit in photoshop selection still greyed out , in fact all selections, are greyed out)
Seems this started when I recently applied the "update" to light room last week.. any way to go back to previous version ?
Has anyone at adobe have an answer to this ?
Thank you in advance...

"Edit in Photoshop": Why is Photoshop is greyed out?

I have LR 3.2 and PS CS5 Extended installed on a Win 7 64 bit PC. Preferences|External Editing shows Photoshop but when I choose an image and right click, Edit in shows Photoshop greyed out. (Also when chossing Edit In from the Photo drop-down menu. I have tried reinstalling ("repair" option) LR but LR does not detect PS. Any suggestions?

Reinstalling CS5 did the trick. Thanks.

Lightroom " Edit in" menu drop to work on Photoshop is grey out?

Lightroom “ Edit in” menu drop to work on Photoshop is grey out, even though I have my “store preset with this catalog” unchecked. Do I have to reinstall LR?

Your photos are never "in" the catalog. The catalog just points to your images in their folders on your hard drive. Do you understand what smart previews are and how they are supposed to be used? Are your images on an external hard drive that is disconnected from your computer?

Why is "edit in Audition" greyed out in Premiere Pro and After Effects?

Since the CC 2014 launch, the option in in Premiere Pro and After Effects to "edit in Audition" is greyed out. Right-clicking a clip in Premiere Pro doesn't have an option for Audition. I cannot send my compositions, sequences or clips to Audition for audio editing. I contacted an Adobe Support personnel earlier this evening. They suggested to go into my Mac's System Preferences and enable a root user, log out of my account, log into the root user, shut down and boot up into safe mode. None of these scenarios worked. It is still greyed out, in both user accounts.
Is this a known issue? I even uninstalled and reinstalled Audition. Still nothing. All my Adobe apps are updated. My Mac is updated. Again, never had this issue before.
I'd appreciate any assistance!
Thank you!
Cheers,
Evan Lockhart

I may have an answer for you, but not sure if my resolution will work for Macs.
First, here's my system and initial info. I'm using a work computer, operating system is Windows 7. I just upgraded to Adobe CC 2014 about a week ago, and I also uninstalled the previous versions of all my Creative Cloud programs after installing the new versions (CC 2014 doesn't just update the previous version, it installs a new program and doesn't automatically uninstall the previous CC programs). Not sure if the uninstall is necessary, for this resolution to work.
Anyway, after I installed Premiere Pro CC 2014 and Audition CC 2014, the Edit Clip in Adobe Audition command was available from the Edit menu in the Menu bar, but was disabled in the right-click menu for the sequence (for the right-click menu, it was visible, but greyed out and disabled). When I tried to use the command from the Edit menu in the Menu bar, it gave me a dialog box to fill out and it created a new folder (titled "Adobe Audition Interchange"). So, the command, when selected from the "Edit menu" obviously uses a different process than the command from the right-click menu. Anyway, I didn't want a new folder created or to fill out a dialog box, I just wanted it to behave like it used to. Basically, when I right-click the sequence and select Edit Clip in Adobe Audition from the right-click menu, it just opens Audition and the audio waveform is visible.
I was able to resolve this and get the right-click command working by reading a couple of articles on this same issue from Adobe CC (not CC 2014) and using those to figure out how to fix this in Adobe CC 2014.
Here's what I did:
I had to locate my .sesx files in my system. They are NOT in the same location as they were for the previous version of CC (at least, they weren't for me). I had to use the Search command and look for .sesx extensions to locate them.
Found them under the path C:>Users>Public>Public Documents>Adobe>Audition>7.0>Session Templates. Note that (for me), there was a folder titled 6.0 on the same level as the 7.0 folder. I selected the 7.0 folder as that folder contained the most recent set of .sesx files. I checked the 6.0 folder and those were the .sesx files from the previous version, so I deleted that folder just as a clean-up step.
I right-clicked on one of the .sesx files in the Session Templates folder and then selected Open with from the right-click menu. The Open with dialog box displays and provides a list of programs.
I selected Adobe Audition CC 2014 from the list of programs (you may have to browse to find it) and then selected Always use the selected program to open this kind of file. I then clicked OK to submit the configuration command and close the Open with dialog box.
I restarted Premiere Pro CC 2014 and the Edit Clip In Adobe Audition command was now enabled on the right-click menu and was working properly.
I wept with joy..... OK, not really, but I'm always irritated at ridiculous regression errors and a lack of thorough testing of new software versions, so I am happy to resolve frustrating issues.
Don't know if this will help you, or if you already resolved your issue. Either way, good luck!

Ever since the latest update, my task bar (if it's called that - it's the one with "file,edit,view, etc") will "grey out" and I won't be able to type into any websites I visit. Only way to fix:either restart Firefox or reduce the window and open it again.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I upgraded from elements 10 to 13 today. When PSE 13 was installed, I uninstalled PSE 10. I also own Lightroom 4.4. However, I used to be able to switch from LR4, to PSE 10 now I cannot switch to PSE 13. (Photo Edit In Edit in Photoshop) is grey. Why?

You might also ask for help in the Lightroom forum.
What I have found is that when I upgraded from PSE12 to 13, my Lightroom 5.6 still selected PSE12 in the list of external editors. I had to use the preferences menu to select the right PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe in the Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 13 folder. I got a message stating that Photoshop Elements was already selected as external editor. In that message box, there is a button with the option to 'change anyway', which I did. Now LR correctly opens PSE13 when I choose Edit in Elements.

The copy function under the edit menu is gone (greyed out) and the short-cut, "command + c" doesn't word. I can only copy by using the copy button on the formatting toolbar, which is slow & annoying. All after I ungraded to Maverick. I've tried several different solutions. Any suggestions? I've tried several solutions, but nothing has worked so far...

Greyed out songs on iPhone and not visible at all in iTunes

I have recently had to replace my iphone due to the microphone breaking, when restoring my new iphone and attempting to transfer all my music onto it, I noticed it asking me to sign in to the apple store with an email address I have never used or recognised.
The majority of my music is not sourced from itunes and I now realise that in my collection I have a few music files that were originally bought and connected to somebody elses apple ID. It is asking me to sign in to these ID's when trying to sync the songs, the problem being they are not my apple ID's and I don't know the passwords so it is impossible. So the songs appear greyed out on my iphone (un playable, can't edit/delete etc) and don't appear in the music tab of my iphone at all in itunes.
At the same time of my iphone replacement I have also bought a macbook air. To fix the above problem I thought I would be able to start fresh with a brand new itunes library on my macbook. I ripped a few cd's and started a new library, (it warned me that I would have to erase the current library and start again + authorize the macbook) but the greyed out songs still appear and every time i sync my iphone it asks me to sign in to the other apple ID's connected with the individual songs.
How do I remove these files completely?
Thanks for your help.

I did not do any updates on my iphone 4. Lo and behold, suddenly these circles with dots appeared next to some songs on the ipod. The ipod would speed scroll through them, and then grey them out. Like for you, I could not play them anymore. So I deleted all the songs on the ipod, and reloaded them from my iTunes. Now, the greyed songs are all visible, with duplicate new loads in black. What the h**k is this? How do I get rid of all the songs that have been deleted but still are all listed in grey?

Thank you, that kind of explains the why. Is there a how? Meaning is there a workaround? Basicly I have two strokes. One white thin stroke on the path (black background), Now I want my second stroke (which is a blue gradient) to start from the path and continue inward, as if it was "alligned innside"

Edit in Photoshop option grayed out ?

Hello,
Just upgraded from Lightroom V4.4 to V5. After this upgrade I find that I can no longer select the option "Edit in Photoshop", the option is grayed out and is not selectable.
I have Photoshop CS6 currently installed and don't have plans to upgrade to Photoshop CC (out of my price range).
Anyone know if Lightroom V5 only interfaces with Photoshop CC now?
Thanks!
Bill

I suggest that you try reinstalling either Lightroom or Photoshop, or even both. I have both Photoshop CS6 and Lightroom 5 installed on my computer and Lightroom and Photoshop work together as expected. Lightroom 5 does NOT just interface with Photoshop CC. It will interface with any version that you have installed.

Edit in Audition is greyed out in PPro CC

Have an audio clip in my PPro CC timeline. Right-clicking it shows "Edit Clip in Adobe Audition" as greyed out. (Edit video clip in After Effects works fine)

You need system specs for a software menu problem? Ok, I'll play.
What version of Premiere Pro? Include the minor version number (e.g., Premiere Pro CS5.5 with the 5.5.2 update).
       - As mentioned above, Premiere Pro CC.
Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
       - Everything available through AAM has been installed.
What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".
       - Windows 8
What kind(s) of source footage? When telling about your source footage, tell us about the codecs, not just the container types. For example, "H.264 in a .mov container", not just "QuickTime".
       - WAV file.
If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
       - As mentioned above, no error message. The option is greyed out in the menu.
What were you doing when the problem occurred?
       - As mentioned above, I was right-clicking the WAV file clip in the PPro CC timeline.
Has this ever worked before?
       - Not in PPro CC, since PPro CC was just installed today. It worked perfectly fine in PPro CS6.
What other software are you running?
       - No software other than background processes, and none of those interfered with the availability of this option in PPro CS6.
Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed?
       - TechSmith codecs from Camtasia.
Tell us about your computer hardware. Be especially certain to tell us about third-party I/O hardware (e.g., AJA, Matrox, Blackmagic, MOTU).
       - i7-990x, 24GB RAM, SSD drives, nVidia 680GTX, Soundblaster Titanium.
Are you using Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration?
       - Yes.
Does the problem only happen with your final output, with previews, or both?
       - Not applicable.

Edit in Adobe Audition Greyed Out in After Effects CC

The "Edit in Adobe Audition" is greyed out in After Effects CC. I imported an mp3 file into my composition, click on it and the link remains greyed out. The link works fine from Premiere Pro CC to Audtion.
Is there a setting somewhere I need to set?

Figured it out. For whatever reason the .sesx file extension wasn't associated with Adobe Audition on my Windows 7 machine. I changed this by double clicking on an .sesx file and adding the association.
