Apps are greyed out when syncing
When syncing my son's iPod, the apps on the computer screen are greyed out. The check mark is there, but it is greyed out as well so I am not able to select or deselect apps. What it this and how do I fix it?
I solved it. The restrictions were disabled so I enabled them. The grey immediately went away. Then after syncing I disabled them again so the little one can't download apps.
Thanks anyway

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. -
I have transferred my itunes to a new phone and all my apps are greyed out on itunes
i have transferred my itunes to a new phone and all my apps are greyed out on my itunes account,the apps still work fine on the phone
Nothing is stored on the sim card on an iPhone. If you backed up to your computer the backup will contain your calendar events. Otherwise, if your phone isn't functioning there is no way to back up or extract your calendar at this point.

Some of the extensions I am using are greyed out when I attempt to make their tool bar viewable
There are several extensions I have installed from the Safari extension gallery. Two of them are the twitter extension and the Gtool Bar. I would like their tool bars to be viewable but they are greyed out under the View menu option. Any reasons why this is and what can I do?
Definitely contact the developers but you can also try deleting the Extensions.plist
Go to ~/Library/Safari/Extensions
Move the Extensions.plist file from the Extensions folder to the Trash.
Quit then relaunch Safari to test. -

I had created a password protected partition on my drive and unfortunately have lost that password. Please guide me if the drive can be partitioned? To give some more details - I had created 3 partitions, one is main start up drive, then 2nd partition which was password protected and the 3rd partition without password again.
I have used some of the tips Kappy had given on one of the earlier discussion but that has not worked either. Help PlsMicrosoft Office 365 is a subscription - based service. You have to pay for it... and keep paying for it... and paying for it... as in 365 days a year... or lose your hard work.
Office Home Premium is a mere $10 a month, but a convenient annual subscription is only $100 a year. This is a substantial discount to Microsoft's Office 365 business products ($150 / employee / year).
Such a deal! Are you not absolutely thrilled?
Here are some slightly more reasonable alternatives, all of which are compatible with their Office equivalents:
LibreOffice (donation-supported)
NeoOffice ($10 but older version is free if you can find it)
OpenOffice (completely free)
Numbers ($19.99)
Pages ($19.99) -
Apps in iTunes window are greyed out
When I sync my iPhone 4S, and I select my particular phone in iTunes, then open the Apps window, my apps are greyed out and I can't manage them, e.g. adding, deleting, repaging, etc. I used to be able to do it with ease. And then it stopped. Could it have anything to with the Cloud? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
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:

Jpgs are greyed out in process multiple files.
I have a new iMac, with Elements 11, all jpgs are greyed out when I try to process multiple files.
DawkAre 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?

I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them. I can not click on those songs, delete or anything and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone. I tried to re-add the songs and it says it can't add songs because they've already been added. So HOW can I get the songs to actually ADD to my phone to where I can listen to them? It's like they're stuck in Sync limbo or something! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am having the same problem. I have just tried this. Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...

Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...

Release the Buttons...
If no joy...
Reset all settings

This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings -
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 adviseGrey 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 -

RE: (forte-users) RE: Forte 3 vs Java --Productivity
I think you should compare language to language, product to product and standard to standard. J2EE is a standard, like CORBA. It's not a product and it's not a language. J2EE is a standard, based on the language Java, but the same standard can be use
