Lightroom: Edit In External Editor does not work/function
I can not send images from LR4 to any external editor via Photo>Edit In. My system is Mac OS 10.7.3. Using the Edit In command fails to open the external editor and no error message results. This occurs whether the images have the 2012 Process Version applied or not. My external editors are primarily PSE10 and Nik Silver Efex Pro 2.0. This is an important part of my workflow.
I have reinstalled PSE10 and updated to the newest version of Silver Efex Pro.

I failed to mention earlier is that this issue did not exist with the LR4 Beta - I was able to send to a variety of external editors from there. I also trashed the LR preferences and tried running on a clean user account, both to no avail.

It was still OK in the BETA version but the final release does not work. The plugin's still show up in " edit photo in xxxx" but nothing happens.
I tried to re-install the plugin but during installation it only sees the LR3 program but not LR4.
Only the export to HDR plugin works
I use the complete collection of the NIK plugin. Bought 3 months ago.
I use MAC 10.7.3
hope this can be fixed soon

Unexpected error performing command: bad argument #1 to 'lower' (string expected, got nil)
And searching through various threads and forums the best I can find is this thread (which is closed for comment) http://forums.adobe.com/message/42492... but reinstalling PS doesn't seem like a reasonable solution for a bug in LR4.
Any fixes coming?

Something went wrong on the way when preparing the final LR4 version I guess.
For sure the NIK plugins are supported in LR4. This is because NIK almost instantly updated their pug ins.
You can see this when installing an older version of a NIK plugin. in that case it will only see the LR3 version in the install window. After installing the latest plugin of NIK it sees LR3 + LR4 in the install window.
I also ordered the LR4 software. And indeed if they do not fix it then it is useless and I will return the box and ask for refund.
For sure it will not get that far. (I hope)
I'm running LR4 on a MAC pro with Lion 10.7.3
regards

My workaround is to export the files I wish to edit and then re-import them into LR.
Mac 10.6.8

This worked fine in LR 3, since the upgrade to 4 I have started receiving this error message

cheers
my Observations I have made are these ...
There seems to be a missing component or even probably a 32bit compiled version for the 64 bit editions or some error in that component in the external plugin area of final LR4;
which can be healed with installing CS5 or PSE
