Every so often I run into a problem of trying to open a photo in PDF with the touchup obect tool. It just say the touch up tool can do this. What can I do to get these photos to open. thanks

If you want to edit an image that is embedded in a PDF, the touchup tool only allows you to select, rotate, mirror, copy/paste and relocate the image within the PDF but not to edit it.
You will need another app that is able to edit the image (like Photoshop or Illustrator) .
If you select "edit image" Acrobat tries to open the selected image in this other app, if available.

There are some grayscale or color images that wont open in photoshop. They are not vector. The problem is open a non vector base image with photoshop with the touchup object tool. Sorry I wasn't clear
