Error when trying to edit in external editor in Lightroom 4

Hi all, need help please with Lightroom 4.
I have an external photo editor set up so when I choose "edit in" it goes to that editor, not photoshop.  I am getting the following error "Unexpected error performing command: bad argument #1 to 'lower' (string expected, got nil)".
I have tried repairing and reinstalling the program to no avail.  I have tried setting up a different program for the external editor, same problem.
This is working as it should in Lightroom 3.6.
Thank you for any help.

    Hi gerry,
    does this happen for a particular image only, or for all images?
    And does this happen only from your account or also from other user accounts?

  • Java error when trying to edit file - access denied

    We have been running Vibe 3.0 for a couple years with no issues but suddenly users have begun to get java errors when trying to edit a file from Vibe. When a file entry is opened and the "Edit this file" link is clicked, a dialog pops up that says :
    Error from command:
    java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission <<ALL FILES>> execute)
    Has anyone else seen this? Could it be related to some windows security update perhaps? Any ideas how to resolve would be appreciated. This happens with regular users as well as admin.
    Vibe is running on SLES 10 with mysql. We are using IIS Windows Authentication.
    Thanks

  • Error when trying to edit page

    "The operation could not be performed because a problem
    occurred while attempting to connect to the server. Please check
    your internet connection and try again. For more details, please

    I can't edit this file and get the errors I put in my first post in

    I can however edit this simple html file successfully:

  • Server communications error when trying to edit a content query

    Hi.
    I get an error when I try to edit a content query for a placeholder in Workshop. I open a placeholder (in data->placeholders) and select "content search" in the content query box. The "Content Search" box pops up but I get an error requester ("Server Communications Error") saying "Content properties cannot be retrieved from the server".
    I've ensured that the server is running and I've checked the server settings, but I haven't been able to find anything that would explain this error.
    Any suggestions?
    Regards,
    Kjell V. Normann

    From Workshop, in the Application tab, right-click on
    wps-toolSupport.war under Modules, and select Set Context Path. Enter
    ${appname}Tool, ${appname} is the name of you application. Workshop
    should use that context-root from then on, and then the placeholder
    editor should be able to find the WebService it needs.

  • Editing Error when trying to edit in Photoshop Elements

    Hello all,
    I received a strange error message when I tried to edit a photo in Photoshop Elements from Aperture. The message is as follows:
    *"Editing Error*
    *This image cannot be rendered for editing because Aperture does not support the image format."*
    I've never received this message before and I find it strange that Aperture gives you Tiff and PSD with both regular and 16bit options only to tell you later that it doesn't support that format.
    Any ideas why this might be happening?
    I'm currently running 10.6, Aperture 2.1.4, and PE 6.0
    Thanks in advance.
    Best regards,
    Jason

  • Error when trying to edit layout

    Hi all,
    I'm using Oracle BI Publisher 11.1.1. I have a report with a standard layout - created via the layout wizard. The report is working fine but when i tried to edit the layout I receive the following error:
    failed to load:io/designer/inline-preview-crosstab
    I tried it with Google Chrome and IE8.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance,
    Alexander.

    Hi Alexander..
    Try the Following procedure:
    1) Login to your weglogic server , under GCDomain -> Services-> Data sources-> one of a connection pool is not been able to allocate resources.
    2) Under Connection Pool tab for that particular pool type increase the Maximum Capacity to +10-15% ,reason been your report is heavily loaded and save it.
    3) After this under control tab it will show the respective server with overloaded issue (most likely BIP) perform -> Shutdown-> Clear Statement Cache -> Start
    And then after this go the data source associated with this report , click on the xml and save the data for engine...
    Run the report -> edit layout/report .
    Let me  know if it works for you.
    Thanks

  • Edit in external editor with lightroom adjustments issue LR5 and PS CC

    Since several days when I try (in Lightroom) 5 to edit an adjusted file (NEF, JPEG or TIFF) in Photoshop CC as external editor (with the option "edit a copy with lightroom adjustments") in many cases the adjustments ar not visible in photoshop CC, or only partial visible, and sometimes the file opens not at all. Removal of the preference files of LR 5 and PS CC and  a whole new installation of LR 5 didn't resolve the issue. I have a macbookPRO with Mac OS 10.8.5 and the most recent versions of LR 5 and PS CC. Has anyone experienced this problem and what can be a solution.

    I have no idea, but have you tried File / Catalog Settings/ General tab: Relaunch and Optimize. Relates to the database.

  • Content Query Web Part gives error when trying to edit

    Hello there,
    When I put the page in edit mode and try to edit the content query web part I get an unexpeced error. When searching the correlation ID from the error message I see this message a lot:
    07/08/2014 11:51:03.72
    w3wp.exe (0x5370)                      
    0x49D8
    Web Content Management        
    Publishing                    
    7fz0
    Medium  
    ConsoleUtilies.GetContextualControlMode had no currentPage so the current SPWebPartManager mode cannot be retrieved.
    The error message says something about Publishing and I had an Publishing issue before the CQWB issue happened.
    The thing is that the CQWB is dependent on the Publishing feature. The publishing feature when turned on (as site collection feature) creates Content types.  One of these content types was removed because when I tried to create a new publishing site
    I got an error about a missing content type.
    I deactivated the site collection publishing feature (after deactivating it on all sites where it was activated) and then activated it again so it reacreates the content types. This was working, since now I can create Publishing sites again.
    The problem is that I can not edit the CQWB anymore. But it is still showing the query in correct lay-out. Also when I add a new CQWB I have the same issue. I can add it, but not edit.
    I also made a new test site collection and here everything works fine. I tried to copy the .webpart from the test to the problem-sitecollection, but the webpart is just not editable on my broken site collection.
    Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? Im assuming it has something to do with the publishing issue I had....
    Please help......

    I disabled all publishing features on all subsites
    Then I disabled the site collection publishing feature
    Then I enabled the site collection publishing feature again 
    I enabled publishing feature on the subsites where I want to use the content query web part and also on the subsites where the query is coming from
    So: Yes, the publishing feature is enabled
