Hi, thanks for reaching out! Would you mind telling us what happens when you try to open the images in Photoshop from Lightroom? Are you getting an error or a prompt? Also, which macOS version are you working on?

Thanks,
Nikunj

When I try to export a photo from Lightroom Classic to Photoshop, I get an error message saying "Lightroom Classic and Adobe Photoshop 2024 are having issues connecting. Please reinstall Adobe Photoshop 2024 and try again". I am using the latest versions of each through the Creative Cloud app. If I open Photoshop Beta before I try the "edit in" function, it asks if I want to use that instead. If I open Photoshop 25.12.0 before exporting, LR does not recognize it being open and I still get the original message. I rolled back LR to the previous version, and the same thing happens. In preferences in LR, the external editor only list Photoshop 2024 and Photoshop Beta as options. This is happening on both my desktop and laptop Windows 11 computers.

I reinstalled all the programs and it seems to be working fine again.

Did you have the beta version installed?? Because just uninstall / reinstall didn't work for me.

What did work was:

Uninstall both versions of Photoshop

Reinstall the older version of PS 26.4.1

I didn't reinstall the beta...
