After 10.5.3 update, all buddies are greyed out, already deleted prefs

This is driving me nuts. I installed the 10.5.3 combo updater and iChat stopped working. Using AIM and Bonjour. All the buddies in both lists are greyed out. Cant' send or receive messages & AOL server thinks I'm offline even though it claims to log in properly.
I quit the iChatAgent and deleted all the preferences.
com.apple.iChat.AIM.plist
com.apple.iChat.plist
com.apple.iChat.SubNet.plist
com.apple.iChatAgent.plist
Rebooted the machine, and the problem wasn't resolved. I reinstalled the 10.5.3 combo updater, still no love.
I created a new system user account and it all works fine when logged to the computer as the new user.
Any thoughts?

Go to iChat > Preferences > Accounts > Security settings tab.
Make sure all the Buddies have not been Added to the Block list
Make sure they are in the Allow Specific People list (or reset it to Allow All).

  • All options are greyed out after i Click on Apply Maitenance

    Hi All,
    I am upgrading our EPM system from 11.1.2.1 to 11.1.2.2. I have downloaded all the required files from e-delivery.oracle .com and unzipped them. I selected Apply Maintenance and when i clicked next all the options are greyed out. I am not sure what i have done wrong. I am using the same user ID which was used for installation of hyperion 11.1.2.1.
    Kindly help me out.
    Find the screenshots at my blog.

    From your screenshot it says that 11.1.2.2 Foundation has been installed when it should say 11.1.2.1 like this - http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-J_9A8U41JS0/T5WXO3JQtxI/AAAAAAAAEj8/0nqcNdo1bFQ/s1600/image022.png
    Also you should only have the option to "Apply maintenance release" like this - http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1zQHVCODSr0/T5WXNLQN4YI/AAAAAAAAEj4/vNQ_vOT03_8/s1600/image021.png in your screenshot you also have the option to Re-install the release.
    Are you definitely sure the environment has had nothing applied to it.
    Cheers

  • Trying to update my apps...all apps are greyed out and say waiting.

    ..all apps are greyed out and say waiting. This has been going on for a day. I have reset my setting turned off my iPad and no changes

    Maybe one of these suggestions will work. Ignore any that you have already tried.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
    If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

  • New 6th generation ipod - loaded my library onto the iPod  all songs are greyed out and I cannot add a playlist.

    I have purchased a new 6th generation ipod and registered it with Apple- it has loaded all my library onto the iPod but when the library is displayed all songs are greyed out and I cannot add a playlist. Can anyone help me ?

    The content that you are viewing on your Nano via iTunes is grayed out since your iPod is set up for automatic syncing with your iTunes library.  If you want to be able to manually manage your contents (which is sounds like you are trying to do), you must enable the Manually manage music option from under your iPod's Summary tab in iTunes.

  • CS6 Encore launches but all options are greyed out

    The headline says it all. I'm using CS6 on a MacBook Pro, OS 10.7. Previously Encore has worked well. After the most recent update, Encore will launch but all of the options are greyed out. I can't start a new project, etc. When I try to open a previous Encore project, I receive an error message that some needed software is missing. Any ideas to help me solve the problem? With many thanks.

    I suspect that same sort of issues that one gets when the activation is messed up. I think the resolution is deactivate and reactivate.
    Are you missing any presets in Premiere? I would look at some of the issues in the Premiere forum to further diagnose the problem and look for the recommended fix.

  • SRM Confirmation - All buttons are greyed out

    Hello experts,
    I have seen posts on similar isue but could not find one which was relevant.
    Here is my problem.
    I see that after a confirmation is created, when I go back into "Display and Process Confirmations ", all the buttons are greyed out. The header statuses for the confirmation are as given below.
    Complete 
    Confirmed 
    Created 
    Approved 
    Currently Being Transferred 
    I am not sure why it says "Currently Being Transferred", when its actually posted in the backend.
    All clean up and update jobs are running fine. I am on SRM 5.0. I even tried the program to regenerate BBP_DOCUMENT_TAB entries.
    Please help incase you have experienced this or know the solution to resolve this problem.
    Thank you.
    Thanks and Regards
    Manish Mohan

    Hi Manish,
    Did you manually run the update reports CLEAN_REQREQ_UP and BBP_GET_STATUS_2 without any document numbers?
    So there is no entry in BBP_DOCUMENT_TAB for this document?
    You mention that the document has been created successfully in the backend?
    Did you check the status of the IDOC in both EBP and the backend?
    Nevertheless I have an Info for you - If you debug the program                                   
    clean_reqreq_up you may find out that the corresponding IDOCs within the                              
    backend system are never found by the FM                                                   
    B46A_GOODSMVT_UPDATECHECK - this FM is called within the program                                    
    clean_reqreq_up with the parameters: 
            object_ident-objkey = IS_DOCUMENT_TAB-OBJKEY.                                               
            object_ident-objtype = 'IDOC'.                                                              
            object_ident-logsys = sender_logsys. 
    where the OBJKEY is the IDOC number within EBP-System.                                              
    Because the corresponding IDOC is never found in the backend system                                 
    (the return code from backend system is always 1 - object not found)                                
    all confirmations get the status I1019 (Transfer Error) and stay hang                               
    in the table bbp_document_tab in the QSR-system and also alert message                              
    is created for them.                                                                               
    The question is why is it not possible for this FM to found any IDOC in                             
    the backend system even when there are posted there...
    this FM is called within the program where the OBJKEY is the IDOC number
    within EBP-System.
    where the OBJKEY is the IDOC number within EBP-System.                                              
    Because the corresponding IDOC is never found in the backend system                                 
    (the return code from backend system is always 1 - object not found)                                
    all confirmations get the status I1019 (Transfer Error) and stay hang                               
    in the table bbp_document_tab in the QSR-system and also alert message                              
    is created for them. 
    So if there is no entry in BBP_DOCUMENT_TAB, maybe, regenerage another one and run this in debug mode and recheck.
    Hope this helps,
    Kind Regards,
    Matthew

  • TS1424 When I ave network coverage, my wi if drops out. I am only able to access my music on my phone when I have no network signal, otherwise all songs are greyed out

    I can only access my wi if, when I have no network signal. As soon as I move to a better signal area, my wi Di connection drops out.
    I have music on my phone, but again, I cannot access this in the gym, when I have a network signal.
    I also cannot access some of my apps, as they are greyed out. Please advise

    Grey text when you look at the content and a lock symbol at the bottom of the screen just indicates that the iPod is set to sync automatically with iTunes. If you want to connect an iPod to multiple computers, play the iPod songs through iTunes, delete songs from the iPod, drag songs from iTunes, add playlists to the iPod etc. you need to change the update setting to "manually manage songs and videos". The text will change from grey to black and everything will be directly accessible through iTunes:
    Managing content manually on iPod
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Syncing Music to iPod
    Something to remember about using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

  • "Automatically update all videos" is greyed out, how to activate it?

  • After Lion and iWork-update: all fonts are kind of broken

    After updating everything: Really had some issues with iTunes and iWork not starting anymore, and didn't update anymore, too.
    Worked that out by downloading it directly from Apple's download-website. Everything seemd fine.
    But now: every iWork-files seem to be corrupted. All text is unreadable, fonts/characters are chaotic. EVERY iWork file is unsuable!!!!
    Strange thing: everything worked out fine with my other Mac.
    Any idea? This is a desaster!

    Hallo everybody and thanks for all replies!
    After deleting all caches everything works fine again (⌥ ⌘ P  R while booting, waiting for second or even thinrd "beep").
    The problem only occured on my MBP, not on my iMac. As my MBP became unsualy very hot, too, my guess is: The MBP ha to less time for re-indexing afte the installation of Lion (I almost immediately started working again). Over night there is no heating-up issue anymore. Seems the caches-clearing and enough re-indexing time did it.

  • IChat says I'm available, but all buddies are grey...

    I have been successfully using my iChat AV for months on my university's internet network. When I came home to visit, I began using my family's internet connection through a wireless connection. Everything else works fine except my iChat. It logs me in and says that I am available, but all the names are dimmed (grey). I know for a fact that people are logged on, because I then go to aim.com and sign on and there are several people on. Does anyone know what could be going on?
    Thank you!

  • I can see my iPhone5 in iTunes but I'm unable to install or updates apps - icons are greyed out. I can remove them however. My ipad works perfectly.

    I can see my iPhone5 in iTunes.  The only functions I can do on my apps is to Remove them.  I cannot install new apps or update existing one's - the buttonew are unavailable for seleciton.  This has only happened since I got a new laptop.  My iPad works perfectly still.

    Have you tried installing and updating apps from the iPhone itself?
    If you have restrictions enabled go to settings>general>restrictions and make sure "Installing Apps" is on.

  • All apps in sharepoint store are greyed out

    Greetings,
    I have followed all steps to configure the SharePoint Store in SharePoint Server 2013. I can open the SharePoint Store, but all applications are greyed out and I can see this error message : "Sorry, but this app is not supported by your server"
    for all apps. However, I have a Enterprise Licence of SharePoint 2013 ans there is not another error message, but I cannot add an app from SharePoint Store.
    Thanks in advance for your answer.

    Hi Mike,
    According to your description, the error occurred when accessing app in SharePoint Store.
    Did this issue occur in other sites?
    I recommend to configure the farm to allow internet-facing end points, and turning on the Internet-facing endpoints feature in Central Administration will show the apps in the SharePoint Store.
    More information are provided in the link below:

    Are these photos in iphoto? You can't access the iphoto library directly. Writing into that library from outside iphoto is the fastest way to corrupt it and lose the photos. Export the photos from iphoto and work on the exports. If that's not it, where are these jpegs located?
