All menus gone, restore is grayed out and can't activate - HELP!

I am unable to restore any menus whatsoever. No address bar, no bookmarks bar, nothing.
I tried right clicking in top bar to restore, but the Restore option is grayed out and does nothing when I click it.
I've deleted and reinstalled Safari three times, but each time it comes back without menus.
Anyone have any idea what I can do?
Thanks -
Cyndy

What do you suggest do rectify the Owner account version of Safari? I forgot to mention that it was my fault that the menu bars disappeared in the first place - basically I clicked on Hide Menu Bar, Hide Toolbar etc!
Not your fault, Julian ... if the wee coggy thing is gone, you can't get them back, and you couldn't be expected to have anticipated that.
Okay. I've installed Safari 4.0.4 on the wife's Vista laptop, and therefore may have less than three hours to live. So I'd better tell you this now ...
*Experimentation suggests the following technique is the one we should try on Vista with Julian*
Log back in to your usual account. Quit Safari if you have it open. Just to be on the safe side, make sure iTunes and/or QuickTime are closed too.
First go "Start > Computer". While you're in "Computer", go "Tools > Folder Options". Click the "View" tab. Make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected. Click OK.
Open your C drive. Open "Users". Open the folder that has the username of your account. Open "AppData". Open "Roaming". Open "Apple Computer". Open "Preferences".
Find the "com.apple.safari" file. Drag it out onto your Desktop.
Now launch Safari. (This will rebuild the com.apple.safari file.)
Do you have the wee coggy thing back?

TS1702 My IPod Nano is synched to my ITunes library, but when I click on the Device name, all of the music is "grayed out" and I can't click on anything.

My IPod Nano is synched to my ITunes library and shows up under Devices, but when I click on the Device name, all of the music is "grayed out" and I can't click on anything.

In order for this content to not appear grayed out, you need to enable the Manually manage music option from under the iPod's Summary tab in iTunes. Keep in minding that manually managing your iPod's contents is different from having content automatically sync to your device from iTunes. See here for more information.

Agents grayed out and can't add or remove - UCCX 7.0

I upgraded an IPCC Standard implementation from 4.0(5) to 7.0(1) SR5 UCCX using the DMT tool. The upgraded UCCX works fine but I have one issue. In Tools > Users the agents are all grayed out and agents can't be added or removed. The customer originally had IPCC standard on the old version which resulted in the loss of CAD on the 7.x version. After the upgrade the customer obtained a temporary enhanced license so that they could use CAD rather than the IP phone agent and they will eventually add a permanent enhanced license. Even before the enhanced license was added, the agents were grayed out in the user menu and no one could be added or removed. Does anybody know what could be causing this and how to resolve it?

Yeah, after I posted the question I started thinking that maybe when you add the users IPCC extension in the CUCM user menu it would add it here so I was reading the admin guide for 7.x UCCX and I found that is the case. The customer that I just upgraded states that he could remove agents in the user management window on his old 4.x IPCC. I can't remember if that was the case or not. Thanks for the response!

Function is grayed-out and can't be controlled when I try to create a mouseover

I am working on a very simple animation where I have an image that is supposed to have a mouseover effect. When I click on Open Action everything is fine and the same is true for when I choose mouseover.
However, when I try to insert a "play" or "play form" action the code comes in grayed-out and I can't edit them (add a label for instance).
Please explain to me why this is happening. I was able to do this earlier today on another document, but I can't do it again and I am wracking my brains out.
Attached image so it might help you.

Hi Amit,
Have you selected the symbol you want to apply the snippet to? That's in the Pick a Target section on the right. From there, you could click the Stage, or on another symbol to select it.
Then press the Enter key and the snippet should be applied in the code field.

HT6437 My itunes cannot locate my ipod. All the sync option are grayed out and diagnostics says that itunes cannot find usb ports and that no device is connected when it is. What should I do to solve this issue?

So itunes is giving me problems. Since around Christmas time, itunes decided to stop reading my ipod. I connect it to my computer with the usb cable and my computer will recognize that a device is connected but itunes will not. If I go to file->devices and try to sync, all of my sync options are grayed out, while before it would just automatically sync.
When I run diagnostics it tells me that under ports that it cannot find usb ports (it has a green circle?), a type of cable isn't found, and that no device is connected with the usb cable (which my ipod is). I have been trying to fix this issue but nothing is working. I've tried restarting my ipod, itunes, and my computer, i've also tried resetting my ipod and uninstalling itunes then reinstalling itunes but nothing seems to be working.
Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

Do the USB ports work for other devices?
Does the iPod charge?
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

NAS drives grayed out and can't connect to other Macs

Hello All,
After upgrading my 15-inch, Mid 2010 MacBook Pro to Mavericks (10.9 13A603) my NAS storage drives are grayed out in Finder. I can't go directly to my NAS drive in Finder. I can't simply click on the NAS drives in Finder and see what is in the directory. The directories are grayed out!.
In order for me to connect to my NAS stotage drive I have to go to "DEVICES" on the leftside of the Finder window and then click on the MacBook Pro HD. From there I have to click on "Network." From "Network" I can get a slow connection to my NAS.
As for as connection to other Macs in my office, I have to take the same steps above. I can't connect directly to the other Macs in my office in Finder. Nether can the other Macs connect to other Macs! All Macs in the office are set up to allow both AFP and SMB. However, one lonely 2009 iMac in our office is still on Mountian Lion and it can connect to other Macs and the our NAS without problems.
One strange things this, I can do a Screen Share to the other Macs from my 2010 MacBook Pro! I can't connect directly in Finder, but I can do a Screen Share. Strange!
Is there a fix for this or was Marverick let out the jungle to earily?
Help! and Thanks!

I forgot to add that everything was previously connected via an Airport express wireless system. I just got an Airport Extreme system which hasn't changed things a bit.

Extensions grayed out and can't access plug-ins

I've used the water mark plug-in before and it worked just fine but now when I go to window>extensions, the "extensions" are grayed out.
Macbook pro 17" with OS X 10.6.4.
Photoshop 12.01, mode RGB, 8-bit/channel.
Watermark 2.0.6. (2.0.5 didn't show up so I loaded the newer version before I noticed extension were grayed out)
The plug-ins are listed under "about plug-ins"
I use Font Agent Pro4.140 and installed the plug-in for Photoshop.
Extensions manager shows Watermar installed.
There is no Extensions Manager under "Help" in Photoshop.
I have no idea what to do to get to my plug-ins.

It took me all day to fix this problem but right now the extensions are visible again.
Deleting Photoshop preferences didn't fix it.
Uninstalling Photoshop and then re-installing didn't work.
So I uninstalled the complete CS5 suite and hope that I got rid of everything before reinstalling the whole suite. I applied updates, installed plug-ins and it now works. What a pain. I am not very happy. I've never had to do this before and I would really like to know what turned the extension off so I don't have to go through this again. Now I am ready to personalize my short cut keys, etc.
Catherine.

Purchased song grayed out and can not delete

I purchase a song and received a permission error. I clicked OK and assumed the download completed. I then purchase another song. There was no error message. Both songs appear in my Music and Purchase folders but the first song is grayed out with an exclamation mark in the first column. I tried to download it again and received a warning message saying I had already downloaded it and a second download would result in a duplicate. I tried to delete the grayed out download and could not.

No available downloads under Store>Check for Available Downloads, but I found a "Download" folder under the "Store" folder. Clicked on that and selected resume and the download completed. The Downloaded folder the disappeared. All is well.

Keynote app grayed out and can't be opened

After updating the app, the installed app does not open up now.
The only way to open it, is to go to the App Store and open it. It was an installed app and I can't even delete it now. What surprised me is that it was a free app and now it charges an amount. This is disappointing from Apple.

Several months ago I kept getting prompted to "update" my iphoto library. I finally gave in and clicked on the update button and EVER SINCE THEN, ALL of my photos have been 'grayed out' and I can't see ANY of them unless I click on the photo and open it

Several months ago, I kept getting prompted to 'update' my iphoto library. When I finally clicked on the 'update' button, it 'greyed out' ALL of my photos. Now ALL of my photos are grayed out and I can't see ANY of my pictures unless I click on each grayed out photo individually and open them, ALL of the thumbnails are greyed out. It is THE WORST!! I have no idea how to fix this problem and its been MONTHS AND MONTHS of *** pain. Anyone?? Please help!!!
Thanks so much!!!

Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

Why is the "Show my windows and tabs from last time) option in Options- General is grayed out and will not let me restore previous sessions?

After updating to Firefox 6, the option in the Options-> General section to "Show my windows and tabs form last time" is grayed out and will not allow me to set it. If I go to the Firefox homepage, the option does not appear, nor does it appear if I go under the History or Firefox tab.
I tried to follow the directions on this website on the Session Restore page, but that seems out of date or just not helping.
I even went to the about:config (about:session restore does not work) and there was nothing I saw that would work

Firefox 6 seems to change your settings in Tools Options Privacy to "Never remember history". Once you change this to "Remember history" it will restore your previous session, as long as the setting in Tools Options General Startup is set to "Show my windows and tabls from last time"
Bad idea Mozilla - installing 6 should pick up your settings from 5. This problem will confuse many users.

My iCloud Backup button is grayed out and i cant turn it on. All my devices are on Wifi. Help!

my iCloud Backup button is grayed out and i cant turn it on. All my devices are on Wifi. Help! Both my ipad and iPhone

A number of employers will push a security profile to your phone when you add their exchange account that prevents you from backing it up to iCloud. They do this because they don't want confidential company information on another companies servers. If this is the case, you will find a setting called "Profile" in Settings>General near the bottom.
You would have to contact the company's IT department to confirm that they are preventing you from backing up to iCloud but that's normally what causes the iCloud backup setting to be grayed our or missing from an iOS device.

Anyone know why I can't edit my app screen when I plug in my 3g iphone now? I can edit all the other tabs, but my app tab is all grayed out and I can't add/edit any apps now. Please help?

Just last week, I plugged in my iphone 3g into iTunes and for some reason I can't edit my apps anymore. All the other tabs (music, video, etc.) are all fine, but my apps tab/screen is all grayed out. I can't edit any of my apps now. What's the deal? I can't seem to find anything similar on the support pages, so I'm desperate to find out what the deal is...please help!

Yes, it's checked as it's how I left it when I was able to edit the page before...now the whole tab is just grayed out and I can't check or uncheck anything. Nothing happens. So frustrated...thanks for any help or suggestions. I have multiple devices on my account and this is the only one that this is happening with when I connect to iTunes. Ugh!
