In Lightroom, I imported about 500 photos and exported as JPG files after editing.
Next day, I want to re-edit some photos but all 500 photos are greyed and can't be developed.
How to re-edit photos ?

Are they greyed out in Lightroom? Did you move the originals outside of Lightroom e.g. you moved them from the folder that they were originally imported into when bringing them into Lightroom?

It may be that Lightroom just doesn't know where the originals are, but they are still on your disc somewhere - try searching for one of the original file names.
