Photos open as 32 bit exposures in Photoshop CS5

Question

I am looking for help on what is probably a simple issue. I have purchased a grunty new 64 bit computor and upgraded to Photoshop CS5, loaded the 64 bit version, however my photos will only open as 32 bit exposures with the message at bottom left of the screen "Exposure works in 32 bit only". As a result many of the menu functions (e.g. crop tool) are not accessible. Accessing the drop down menu arrow (bottom left) and moving from 32 bit exposure to another setting does not help. Could anyone suggest the solution please? Thanks, from Belinda.

function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}

If it says that you are definitely NOT looking at a 32 bit image.
There's info in the title bar or tab for the document that tells you the number of bits/channel.  Look for a number in there - 8 or 16.  That's the actual bit depth of your document.
