LR edit in > PS it returns "unable to prepare" error

Report · Apr 13, 2022

I just moved from a Mini to an Apple Studio. Having issue when using the Edit in > Photoshop 2022 function. It returns "Unable to Prepare" error. All of the previous answers related to Windows machines.

No answers from Mac users yet! Have you checked "Permissions" for the original files in the new Apple Studio system?

In particular Look at Files and Folders. Make sure LrC can access everything.

Other Forum answers have suggested faulty drives (not unheard of in new systems!), and 'Missing' files that need re-linking (but usually a different error message).

Regards. My System: Lightroom-Classic 13.2 Photoshop 25.5, ACR 16.2, Lightroom 7.2, Lr-iOS 9.0.1, Bridge 14.0.2, Windows-11.
