Why is it external change in Photoshop grayed out on Mac

Using the last OSX on a Mac and have the latest updates for Lightroom and Photoshop and trashed preferences files, I tried everything suggested elsewhere on the Web without success. My "Edit" for Photoshop is gray and cannot be accessed. What can I do else? Can anyone suggest a work-around?

Hi MUCS80,

Please make sure that the file is not missing from the catalog.

Lightroom must be able to locate the file on the local computer or any external drive connected to the computer.

I hope this helps.

    original title: Vista 64 bit Home Premium got updated yesterday. Why some elements of the taskbar are grayed out?

    Hello.

    Yesterday, I downloaded the updates from Microsoft Update. I use Vista 64 bit Home Premium on a Toshiba laptop.

    I don't see the network icon in the taskbar.

    When I right click on the taskbar, go to properties, Notification area tab: I see that Volume, network and power are grayed out. I can't select them. The only I can change is the clock to turn on or off.

    Is there something I can do? No one else has used the laptop. Thank you.

    It works again. Sometimes this happens and I don't know why.

    I used my computer. I turned it off and now the missing things are back.

    Thanks for the info, I didn't have to do it well.

  • When I try to access XPMode in Win.7 - it either requires a password that has never been, and most of the adjustments or places to change something is grayed out

    When I try to access XPMode in Win.7 - either, he asks a password that has never been, and most of the adjustments or places to change something is grayed out in the newspaper on the page for XP, or on my computer where there is a chance to change things like "debt", etc.  My registry maybe THAT screwed up? Nothing I try to do seems to help. I can delete the virtual machine and the XP mode and then try to re / add?  Running out of ideas... ALSO, the repair of my system does NOT work!  No restore points that would take me any more than a few days back.  This registry problem that happened there is at least a month... Thank you-Jerial

  • Why choose/change/borders is grayed out

    Using Photoshop elements 11 on my iMac Maverick, I'm trying to create color borders around the photos of work I've created, but selection/change/borders options are grayed out. Can someone please tell me why and how can I bring it use please? If not, is there another way to create other boundaries using the rectangle and filling in the selection. I find it not quite accurate.

  • Why the titles of the songs are grayed out?

    This question is asked many times in the forum, but nothing of the apply to my situation. I downloaded many songs from itunes and they appear as grayed out reading lists.  In the case of an album, a song will not play after one after another.  Each must be selected separately.  It is also not as much information as the track number and no check box.

    In other cases, the songs normally play on shuffle.

    Perhaps a related problem, but when I sync the phone a lot of songs is always grayed out with download of cloud symbol.  Why they are not copied to the phone?

    (I came to hate itunes.  It is BUG-GY, and these are just more examples.)

    Any help is appreciated.  Thank you.

  • Data Modeler: changing attribute Table grayed out (in the relational model)

    I use SQL Developer Data model version 2.0.0 build 584.

    I have a relational model of appr. 30 paintings. For some tables, the display of attributes is grayed out, not allowing not of any change of the values. I have a feeling that this was due to an import/merge views of database, but for me this quite annoying because it prevents modelling activities further on these tables.

    Does anyone have an idea what could be the reason for this? More importantly: how to remedy this situation?

    Mark

    Hi Mark,

    Does anyone have an idea what could be the reason for this

    the reason is probably the difference in design name and name in the next item in the XML of the table:

    It is interesting how you did this.

    More importantly: how to remedy this situation?

    You can try ' Save as ' to save the design in a different directory.

  • Why my icon has changed to an A on my Mac Dashboard and how to return the original?

    The Firefox icon (fox /earth), which has always been on my Mac Dashboard has changed to an 'A', composed of a ruler, pencil and brush. I don't know why. I would like to revert to the original. Why did happen and how can I go back. I use version 9.0.1 on a Mac with os x 10.6.8.

    Hi bitoruf,

    I've seen that happen periodically, but it is easy enough to fix. Simply remove the icon from your dock. Then re-create by dragging the Firefox icon in the doc from the applications folder.

    Hope this helps!

  • Why is the bar blackened and address grayed out instead of display the url information?

  • FAQ (29): why the "See the last SoftPaqs" button grayed out?

    When I'm in the mode 'All products' or "Building Driver Pack", "Show the last SoftPaqs" button is gray. How to enable this feature for SDM will show me the latest versions of the SoftPaqs for my selected models?

    In the modes of 'Building Driver Pack' and 'All products', you have the ability to check more than one model. Unfortunately, showing the latest version of a SoftPaq for more than one model is problematic because the same version of a SoftPaq maybe not the one which is responsible for all the models selected that makes the application unnecessary and ambiguous.

    Just think about it for a second. If we had a model (let's call ModelA) 5 years ago and another model who is only 1 year old (let's call ModelB) selected in SDM. Keep in mind that computer models of different years will probably have material differences that require different hardware drivers. Also note that this could be the case even if the models were of the same year. Furthermore, models most recent software qualification only goes back a number of years. It could very well be that the software can run on older models, but if HP do not qualify and test it, HP will not associate the new version of the SoftPaqs with older models.

    So, what does the request: "Show me the latest versions of SoftPaq for some models ModelA and ModelB" really means? We asked this exact question to various people and two completely DIFFERENT responses are returned. The answer seems to be influenced by the different needs of the Organization to which the respondents belonged to.

    For some, the answer was: ' show me the most recent SoftPaq who qualified for BOTH models. This is known as a query "AND". This query would only show what are the common SoftPaqs between ModelA and ModelB, but would show NO SoftPaqs, who were qualified for only one and not the other.  With this query, most of models that are selected, the lower number of SoftPaqs appears.

    But for other respondents, the answer was ' show me the lastest Softpaq is qualififed for EITHER model; which is a query "GOLD". This query would show all the SoftPaqs associated with each model. But it is not clear if each SoftPaq was qualified for ModelA, ModelB or for both. This request seems to be too broad, because the models have been selected, more likely it is that a SoftPaq would appear even if she wasn't qualified for a model on the list only.

    So, to illustrate this, imagine the following scenarios...

    Scenario 1

    We have three SoftPaqs. SoftPaq1 qualified for the ModelA and ModelB, SoftPaq2 is ONLY responsible for ModelA and SoftPaq3 is ONLY responsible for ModelB. What SoftPaqs should appear as the "last SoftPaq ModelA and ModelB"?

    Answer:

    Query AND: SoftPaq1 because it is "the latest version of a SoftPaq who qualified for BOTH models.

    GOLDEN request: SoftPaq2 and SoftPaq3 because everyone is "the latest version of a SoftPaq for at least one model.

    Scenario 2

    What happens if the SoftPaq3 did not exist?

    Answer:

    Query ANDoftPaq1 because it is "the latest version of a SoftPaq who qualified for BOTH models.

    OR queryoftPaq1 and SoftPaq2 because everyone is "the latest version of a SoftPaq for at least one model.

    Scenario 3

    What happens if the SoftPaq1 did not exist?

    Answer:

    AND query: No. SoftPaq is qualified for BOTH models

    GOLDEN request: SoftPaq2 and SoftPaq3 because everyone is "the latest version of a SoftPaq for at least one model.

    Add more models and SoftPaqs and results gets confusing real fast. Therefore, to avoid confusion, it was decided that the "View the last SoftPaqs" button would be disabled if more than one model was chosen because it is the only case where "See the last SoftPaqs" is not ambiguous. Thus, the "View the last SoftPaqs" button is available, if only a model (and OS and language) are selected.

    If you have several patterns that you manage, and you want to use the button "See the last SoftPaqs", please enjoy SDM configurations and save a configuration for each model. For more information on SDM configurations, please see using SDM.
