I am using Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 and I am trying to switch from Frames to Timeline in the Animation Panel. I have read in other forums that there should be a menu in the bottom right corner of the panel, but none is appearing in my panel. (Screenshot attached)

Thanks in advance for your help.

Click on this guy at the left bottom of the timeline:

Have you tried the pop up menu (the triangle and lines-icon on the right near the top)? »Convert to Video Timeline« should be the item.
