Any advice would be appreciated. 

So both Lens flare and Lighting Effects are greyed out. Have been for a while.

Ok, spot on, both are now available.

Whats the difference between RGB and CMYK?


If you don't know the difference, then you probably shouldn't be in CMYK mode in the first place. How did the file get into CMYK?
