P: Lightroom 4 requires Camera Raw 7.0

[FeedbackCommunityMember]

LR4 uses Camera Raw version 7.0. (it says so on the about plate). However there is no CR 7.0 available for PS. The PS: Help->Update says all up to date - there is no option to install CR7 that is required and warned about when "Edit in PS" is selected in LR4.

Thanks for the response - I have now downloaded ACR 6.7 RC and the link with LR is restored. Still does not come up with dialogue box giving me options however I can live with that.

You're not supposed to see a dialog using Edit In Photoshop if LR and PS/ACR have compatible versions.

To see a dialog, you can create a separate 3rd-party-external-editor link and point that at the Photoshop executable. It at least used to be that you had to make a copy of the executable with a new name, Photoshopx.exe, and designate that copy as the external editor so LR wouldn't detect it being Photoshop and not show a dialog like it doesn't with the real Photoshop executable.

Same message in LR 4.2 when using PS CS5
