LR Classic 10.2
Operating System
  1. macOS 10.15 Catalina
Working with Mac OS 10.15.7, menu choice : Photo>Edit in>Adobe PS 2020 (or Edit in>Open as Smart Object in Photoshop) no longer works. I can choose to Edit in> HDR Efex Pro2 and file will open. But when I choose to use PS, nothing happens. It adds unnecessary steps that I never had before. Before what? I am not sure what may have changed. I've checked that PS and LR are as current as I can be with Catalina. I have not updated to Big Sur yet.
 
Your Photoshop installation should be Photoshop 2021, not 2020. Can you check your Creative Cloud Desktop app again, and if necessary update PS to the latest level, then try again.
 
Right you are. I had some kind of issue with 2021 (cannot remember now) and went back to 2020, which is probably when my .CR2 files wouldn't open. So far so good with 2021 and opening from LR Classic 10.2. Thank you!
