Thaz understandable. But some of that clutter comes from so many folks doing what you just did. Seems like a "lose-lose" bargain however you slice it :-(
My response was from my own experience. Reseating the lens and cleaning the contacts fixed my problem. Period. I don't need your comments.

Or .... just read the thread, where you will find the real solution !
But credit where credit is due, congratulations for NOT even mentioning "two button reset". Good on you !

I find that following a thread on UHH is like a blind man trying to find the light. Too many dead ends and misdirections let alone completely off topic comments.

I've been using the Photo Shop editing option for years when using Lightroom (LR) in post - but suddenly that editing option isn't working, apparently not even available. My usual sequence is to right click on my LR image and select PhotoShop as the editing tool. Then PhotoShop takes over the computer screen and I'm able to do things like add my digital signature. Not working now. Has anyone out there experienced this?
Under Lightroom Classic->Preferences->External Editing is the version of PS installed on your computer accurately reflected in the "Photoshop version" tab?
AFAIK this is automatically updated when you update PS.

Odd it WAS working.
I pulled it out of the drawer and swapped lenses before turning it on. Would not autofocus. Toggle M/AF switch on lens. Still won’t autofocus. Power cycled, no good. Swapped back to 24-200mm and it still won’t autofocus.
Checked menu:
A6 AF Activation is set to AF-ON only
But pressing the AF-ON button does not activate the focus system.
Anyone had this problem or have any suggestions?

Besides re-seating the lens you may have dirty contacts. Clean them with a clean art gum eraser and carefully blow off any residue so as not to have it drop into the camera body.

Some tidbits:
1. Avoid any lava ash beaches (e.g. just west of Hofn) if there is any wind. I was there once with the wind blowing and several other members of the group destroyed their len's front elements due to the abrasive nature of the ash which comprises the "sand".
2. The last time I visited I needed a PIN for my credit card to buy gas. Your CC Company should be able to get this set up without difficulty. I did not run into any ability to select "fill tank" at any of the stations I visited. If you should rent a diesel powered vehicle there are usually thin plastic gloves in a contained on the pump island so you don't get diesel on your hand.

Winds can be a problem or not. I was stationed there for a year in the 1970s (when the International Airport was a US Naval Base), and there were as many dead calm days as windy days. That said, consider a dog leash screw that will allow you to strap your tripod to the ground. You will need a strap attachment for the bottom of your tripod. Something on the order of this.

Well you are way off base on this one. This is true reportage and has been on multiple media outlets

I am thinking about getting lightroom.
Version 5 and 6 are for sale on Ebay on a disc for about $120.00 one time purchase.
Subscription for lightroom only is $10.00 per month.
What are your thoughts about buying it on disc that adobe stopped selling in 2019.
Are the updates and lmprovements that good to pay the subscription price forever?

If you don't want the best go to On1. Also, do they specify Lightroom Classic or some other version. Is it supported? Will it install on your hardware.
FYI the current version of Lightroom Classic is 13.2. Draw you own conclusion on the feature set of a 6+ version out of date program.

Thanks for your thoughts, Bob.
The company is run by a husband and wife team. One of them leads each of their various workshops. The information we have received from them as well as reviews we have read seem good to me. I’ll be back in touch after the excursion and let you know how it worked out.
Thanks.

A husband and wife team. Do they have names? Do they have a website that you have reviewed. Is their approach to photography clearly stated? The questions are endless. I'll be interested in your follow up.

I looked over their site. The lack of detail is astounding. You have no idea who will lead thus you are buying like a blind man. Workshops seem very short and there is absolutely no mention of any educational component.
I would avoid like a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.

If you subscribe to the Adobe Portfolio plan it does include the Adobe Portfolios. The best part is that you have already paid for it. Although it is marginally documented how to set it up, it you have any experience with web sites you should be able to figure it out. As I recall you can have up to 4 different websites and you can tag one with any address(URL) that you want.
