You are working on an RGB image not a raw image. Correlated color temp is only available when you are working with raw image data.

Yep, what Kirk said.

You can only adjust Kelvin on RAW files.

You have to shoot raw to have access to Kelvin WB. You can only access it in the DEVELOP module.

There are lots of great tutorials available online. I watched them over and over again. I like Julianne Kost's. I believe that's her name

Another vote for Ms Kost's LR/PS video tutorials, she is an Adobe evangalist, you can find her videos on AdobeTV.

Google is also your friend. Adobe has an extensive online help system for LR.

The nice thing about LR is that changes are not relayed directly to the original file and therefore considered non destructive, but of course if you make changes and export a copy you may well see issues, especially with Jpegs.
