Free Trandsorm Grayed Out?

Recently I tried to use the Free Transform option by pressing the Command Key / T however it doesn’t come up. I then look under the Edit option and it appears to be grayed out.
I have tried everything up to and including reinstalling Photoshop to no avail. I have been using this feature for sometime and nothing like this has ever occurred. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

Do you have anything selected to transform?

....or be sure you're not trying to transform the background layer.

Yes...I do have something selected to transform. And it appears that I'm not trying to transform a layer.

You can transform a layer. you cannot transform the background layer

Color mode?

Layer selection?

Channel selection?

Are you in Quick mask mode?

What version of PS?

etc...

need details.

What tool is selected? Won't work if you have a vector tool selected in the toolbar.

I'm using CS2 (v9.02)RGB Color mode with the crop tool selected although I have tried other tools with no luck.

Are you absolutely SURE that:
you either have an ACTIVE selection;
or have "targeted" an image on a normal UNlocked (non Background) Layer?

with the crop tool selected

thats your problem right there.
