"Update" grayed out in Lightroom 6 on Mac
I just bought and downloaded the upgrade to Lightroom from 5 to 6. It is installed on my laptop and Macbook Pro fine. I'm trying to upgrade to version 6.5 on my Mac and the 'update' under 'Help' option is greyed out. It worked fine on my PC, but the Mac gives me questions.
I am signed in on Mac and have tried signing on the PC. No difference. I also followed the link here to download 6.5 on its own. When I try to run, I get an error telling me that updates have been deleted by the administrator.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.
Solved by closing Lightroom and deleting the following file:
Update on the tab button toolbar to help now works correctly and performs a check of updates.

Recording/disable/updates grayed out
Hi all,
As I recently had some hardware problems with my computer, orders of recording/disable/updates to my Photoshop CS4 suddenly had dimmed. Also at the same time, the bridge is not working properly, I can't create/delete/modify anything via the bridge, I get the message "cannot access this file. Check the security on the network drive privileges"I access your Photoshop files. I checked the permissions in Windows XP, and I have not all permissions.
To rememdy this problem, I ran the LicenseRecovery and still the problem persisted, so I uninstalled Photoshop and re-installed again. Now the three controls are sometimes clickable and sometimes they are greyed out. The problem with Bridge continues.
Can you please help me solve this problem. Thank you all
Quite often these menu items are grayed out for an indefinite period until Photoshop has established a connection with the internet.
You don't mention your OS, but it can help to run the bridge as an administrator (with a right click) to make it work.
Also to reset Bridge preferences by holding the Ctrl key when you start it until you get a reset dialog box, where you confirm all three.

I have a Mac Powerbook G4 with OS X 10.5.8. I get messages from Google that Firefox is an older version and need to update - so I went to the site of Firefox and the message said that "Unfortunately the latest version of Firefox is not compatible with the operating system of your computer. Learn more. "When I click on learn more, it is said that Firefox only works with OS X 10.5 and 10.6... the auto-Setup box to update for Firefox is grayed out and not clickable in Firefox preferences, there is no manual download I can find - how can I make Firefox recognize my OS and allow me to upgrade? Thank you very much.
PPC Macs are not compatible with Firefox 4.0 and later versions.
For older Mac that are not supported in Firefox 4 / 5 / 6, try TenFourFox of PowerPC running Mac 10.4.11 and 10.5.8.

Failed to create a 3D text (or 3D nothing else) all options in the 3D Panel are grayed out. With the help of CC 2015.1.2 on Mac Pro (end 2013)
Thanks for the update.
Go to the Photoshop preferences > 3D > check whether it shows VRAM than 3072 MB
Look for the system updates and see if there are updates waiting for your graphics card drivers.
And make sure that the document you are opening is in RGB and CMYK mode not.

I only had this problem since update to firefox 25. I tried to reset the deafaults ff. He did restore the "undo close tab" for a short period. but when I quit and restarted ff I have the same problem again. I don't want to have to keep resetting to the default settings, because it's too much time to then get back all my preferences.
I had this problem as well, I couldn't choose "Restore recently closed tabs" as historic because it is grayed out.
I went to Subject: config und from 0 (10 is the default value), browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo to 10 and I set browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo to 0 (including default 3) 3.
For me, this problem solved my problem und now I can restore recently closed tabs.

I have a HP Photosmart c7280 all-in-One printer and a Macbook Air running OS Lion (10.7.1).
I'm trying and who need to print via the option "Double" that appears under the menu of "Layout" drop down tab option, the option 'Double' however seem to be grayed out as if you are not allowed to use it. I'm sure this isn't the case, I don't know how to unlock but I guess?
I just made sure all my software was updated and is currently.
Everything is perfect on the printer and I used it for years, thank you! I just want to know what on earth am I doing wrong or need to do to unlock this "Double-sided" parameter, so that I don't waste a ton of paper! Thanks again!
Sincerely,
DAP413
Hi DAP413,
To actiate the two-sided accessory, you have to enable the printer settings:
-Enter in System Preferences > print & Scan
-Double-click the name of the Photosmart printer to open the print queue.
-Click the printer setup button
-Click on the driver tab and make sure the duplex printing accessory option is checked.

My Lightroom does not work as it should, the part "change in" for the sending of photoshop is grayed out, so nothing works, all my creative cloud programs are up to date, I think it started after the presentation and download latest camera Raw CC. Thank you very much in advance for any help.
There are chances that you are working with smart insights? That would mean that images of masters would be unavailable and so intelligent previews that you chose to generate are used.

New to Lightroom 6. Were able to import photos previously. Now when I try to import Photos and videos, I specify a folder that contains a mixture of NEF and JPG images, and thumbnails will appear. However, they are grayed out. When I hit Import, I get a message that says no. Photos import active.
This means that you have previously imported these pictures/videos into Lightroom, and you must not (and are not allowed to) import them again.
Go to your library Module (not the import dialog box) and find the photos, then you can make use of them in any way you want in Lightroom.

I use Lightroom 6.5 and PS CS3 (version 10). Working in Lightroom, the option Edit in Photoshop is grayed out. I think this may be linked to the recent transition to Windows 10.I
Hi allync,
If please try and uninstall Photoshop CS3, restart the machine, and then reinstall it.
Download link: Download Adobe Creative Suite 3 products
Let us know if that helps.
Kind regards

I downloaded lightroom 5 for mac and it is impossible to activate a lightroom3 update
The only way you would be able to improve Lightroom 3 Lightroom 5 is if you can find a version upgrade to purchase from a third-party vendor. 5 Lightroom is no longer sold by Adobe. The path to upgrade for you would be to 6 Lightroom Lightroom 3. This upgrade is available for $79 in the United States.
