Mix does not open Lightroom photos

I have Photoshop Mix v1.1 and Lightroom Mobile v1.1.0 on my iPad 3 with iOS 7.1.2.
I have made 6 collections in Lightroom 5.6 (CC) (on Windows 7) available to Lightroom Mobile and I can edit these successfully in LR Mobile on my iPad.
So why does Photoshop Mix report "The image cannot be opened" when I select one of the photos in a collection when I select:
"+" -> "Lightroom" -> Collection of interest -> Image of interest.
Thanks.

Hi Pete - thanks for getting back.
My workflow- which seems to be the most natural to me - is:
- create collections in LR desktop with some photos
- enable syncing with LR mobile (right click -> Sync with Lightroom mobile)
- go to LR mobile on iPad and check / adjust photos (over wifi)
- open PS Mix, navigate to the LR Mobile collection and image I want to work on (using "+" -> "Lightroom" -> select collection -> select image
- this is when I get the error message "The image cannot be opened".
I have restarted the IPad but the problem is persists.
I have investigated further and found the following:
1. One or two images do open in PS Mix, but I can see no logical reason why these do when the majority do not.
2. If I open an image in LR mobile and then use the icon in the top right corner (the share / open icon?), select "Open in..." and find "Open in Photoshop Mix", then PS Mix launches with the image successfully.
So, it CAN work, but you have to follow a very specific order which is not described anywhere and is not the most logical.
Why does PS Mix have the option to open LR mobile images directly if that doesn't work?
The combination of LR desktop, LR mobile, PS Mix and PS desktop could be immensely powerful and very handy for a productive workflow if only they could be tweaked slightly to work together better.
(Talking of workflow, are you able to help with Lightroom Mobile - editing metadata? - this is such an obvious purpose for LR Mobile that I cannot understand why Adobe didn't do it in v1.)
Many thanks,
RIchard

Photoshop Does Not Open Lightroom Image

Every few weeks, when I open Lightroom, I cannot edit my images in Photoshop. I'll select Photo->Edit in->Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS5. Photoshop then opens. Instead of displaying the image I'd just been working on in Lightroom, Photoshop brings up the standard file "Open" dialog. (I've learned that if I then try to open the image using this dialog, the TIFF file is not properly exported back to Lightroom.) To the best of my knowledge, this does not happen if I tell LR to open the image in Photoshop CS4. The only work-around I've found is to optimize the Lightroom catalog, shut down both LR and PS, and restart my Mac. Sometimes it takes several tries -- eventually it will start working again. Once I get the LR-PS linking re-established, it will continue to work properly for the remainder of my work session.
Details: I'm running Lightroom 3.3 and PS 12.0.2 x64 on a Mac Pro. My Lightroom catalog has around 11,000 images in it at the present time.
Any suggestions would be appreeciated! Thanks, Steve.

Thanks for your suggestions. I just found an earlier thread that suggested deleting both the Photoshop and Lightroom preference files. I will try that. I'll also try to update my version of PS. (I have the CS5 updater running -- I'm surprised I don't have the latest version.)
If those things don't work, I'll try reinstalling. One of the frustrations with these intermittent problems is that you're never quite sure if you've fixed it. I'll give your suggestions a shot, and then I just have to watch for a while and see if LR and PS will work together,

I use WIN7, PSE11, LR5 - 'Edit In' PSE11 does not open photos.

I use WIN7, PSE11, and LR5.
LR5's 'Edit In' preference does not open my photos for editing in PSE11.
What must I do to use PSE11 as an external editor?

I can not open my photo, opened in lightroom, in photoshop CS4. Plug-in camera raw is missing

I can not open my photo, opened in lightroom, in photoshop CS4. a plug-in camera raw xx is missing. Advice to update does not work. There is no plug-in in the map photoshop plug-ins.

This is expected. CS4 will never be able to open files from a current version of LR and a modern camera.

Lightroom does not open photoshop using "Edit in adobe photoshop CC-" command.

I updated lightroom and photoshop using the CC desktop. (LR V5.3 x64, PS V14.6.2 x64) This broke the “Edit in adobe photoshop CC…” command.
Based on advice from this forum, I unistalled both programs completely and reinstalled them. The
“Edit in adobe photoshop CC…” command is still broken.
Is there a way to fix this? I use this feature frequently.

In reply to DdeGannes:
What’s broken? -- The “Edit in adobe photoshop CC…” command does not open photoshop and the file as it did before the upgrade.
Is the "edit in function" not available? -- It is visible in the edit it menu.
Was it working before? Yes.
What happens if you click? - Nothing.
Do you get an error message? - No.

I tried hard reset on my iPhone. I tried restarting laptop and iPhone. I tried a different laptop. I tried removing driver and reinstalling from Device Manager but did not find a driver other than "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" under "Universal Serial Bus controllers" which I heard shouldn't be uninstalled.
Anything I haven't tried?
HELP!

A bit confused by your statement

Are you seeing your music listed in the iPod screen, or in Win explorer as in your earlier post?
I can see all the songs in my Edrive>al's Ipod> Ipod Control> Music folder.
A corrupted iPod database, will report zero music used, and have your music size reported as others, so you wont see the music in the iPod screen. Sorry, I thought there was some hope for you with iPodAccess, in recovery of the corrupted iPod database with your ratings.
You can try to borrow and use the Mac Disk Utility ->First Aid ->Repair.
Of course, if your iPod Hardisk is in a bad state, from the Disk Diagnostic report, then all my suggestion are futile.

My i photo version 9.2.3 does not open. tried everything

My I photo version does not open. Tried everything.

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
what do you see when iPhoto tries to open?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?
Happy New Year

Photo does not open in Photoshop as before from Iphoto

I have a large library with approx 9700 pics. In the past, I was able to double click on a photo in Iphoto and it would open Photoshop CS (PS). PS opens but the chosen photo does not open. I have also noticed that all of the albums in Iphoto are not seen in the PS file browser and that the photos are in numbered folders that I did not create.
thanks for any help.

Hi jwilman,
To answer your first question:
You must have done an Archive and Install and the Scripting folder for PS did not get put back where it belonged. You must find that folder and put it back in the root library. or reinstall PS to get the folder.
Try this suggestion I copied and pasted from MacFixIt first
"Photoshop CS: Fix for file opening problem Yesterday we reported that since installing Mac OS X 10.4, Photoshop CS refuses to open any new files or create any new documents, reporting a "program error" when one tries to do so. Our previously reported workaround involved re-installing Photoshop CS, but MacFixIt reader Bryan Schappel now offers a faster solution:
"This happens because the Archive and Install option does not copy over a necessary folder for Photoshop. The critical folder is called 'ScriptingAdditions' and is stored in the main Library folder. This folder contains one file 'Adobe Unit Types' that makes Photoshop open files that have been double-clicked or dragged to the PS icon in the Dock.
"Simply move this folder (and file) from the 'Previous System' backup to the Library folder, relaunch Photoshop and all is well again. No need to completely re-install.""
I copied an pasted instead of putting the link in because it is not on the front page and you would have to search around to find it. Hope it is ok to do that here.
To answer your second question:
iPhoto 5 now stores the Album information in a data xml file. The Albums folder within the iPhoto Library folder is no longer used. At some point, usually after a rebuild, you will no longer have that folder in the Finder.
If you need to access photos from an album it is very difficult for a third party application to navigate the iPhoto Library in order to find the photo you need. You will have to know the date of import in order to find the photo.
There are some third party applications that can read the xml file and can navigate the iPhoto library and show you the Albums. Hopefully more applications will be revised to read this file.
Until then you will have to Share/Export the photos to the desktop. You can then navigate to the desktop to use the photos (example: web uploading from online photo site)
If your application supports drag and drop, you can drag the photo from an open iPhoto Library window into your application.
For email you can also use the email icon within iPhoto to open a message with the highlighted photo attached.
You can also use spotlight to find images in an Album...
This is what I have done using Spotlight to find my images that are in iPhoto albums without opening iPhoto..
In iPhoto, select the album, then select all, go to Photos/batch change.
Change the comments to text. In the text field I put the name of the Album.
Do this for each album.
Close iPhoto.
Open Spotlight and put in the name of the Album ( you have to remember the names of the albums or have then written down)
In the spotlight search results. click on "show all"
Under "Images" click on the "xx more" to show all the images in the album.
Make sure you have it in icon view, the icon view box is the last one on the blue images line.
Now you can control click on the image to "reveal in finder", open in iPhoto or Mail, etc.
I am not sure if this is going to make you happy and it is a little more work, but you can find images in albums and even view them in a slideshow (by clicking the play arrow at the end of the Images highlighted blue line) using Spotlight, all without opening iPhoto.
One important thing to know is you can set up a graphic program to be an external editor (when you double click an image in the library} such as PhotoShop or PS Elements. You set up that within iPhoto Preferences. Just make sure you save the image flattened and with the same name. The edits will then be relected in iPhoto when you hit "save".
Two Apple kbs for you to read
Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto library folder
About the iPhoto Library folder
This is a view of how the iPhoto Library looks in the Finder.
It is organized by Year folders. Inside the Year folders are Month folders. Inside the Month folders are the days of the Month. Inside the day folders are the photos you took on that day. If you imported video clips and RAW files on that day they will be in an Originals folder. If you have edited any photo imported on that day, the original will be in that folder also.

Lightroom 5.4 does not open, using windows 7

lightroom 5.4 does not open, using windows 7. I downloaded the trail and it does not open. I want to buy it, but i am afraid it will not work. I do not get an error code or anything it just will not open.

Thanks but none of the options in that KB fix the problem.
The "Exit Code" was 3 rather than "0" and so it doesn't look like the patch will install. In terms of the third option, I mentioned in my original message that I cannot "Deactivate" my other CS6 programs because that option is grayed out in those programs. But those programs work just fine (other than Acrobat Pro X) and so I think there may be a bigger problem with all of my Adobe products.

You can stop new photos being automatically added to Photostream in iPhoto from iPhoto preferences > Photostream.
