Brush Tip Shape option grayed out, can't uncheck it.

The "wet edges" selection in my "brush tip shape" options is grayed out.
I can't de-select it from the left side of the Brush window. I've tried closing and re-opening Photoshop, and re-booting my computer, but it comes back the same way every time I open the program.
I am running Win 7 on a Dell with lots of memory and a decent video card.
FWIW -- the color model in the file is RGB. I'm aware that Index Color upsets brush tip options, but
that's not been the case here.

Okay, FWIW -- For Whatever It's Worth -- ran Adobe Photoshop Updates today (had to go to the Help > Updates pull-down from the top menu, the Creative Cloud Updater didn't work -- and the option is no longer grayed out/locked in.I
Frustrating while it lasted.
I use brush-stroke to turn vector paths into lines fairly often, so I'm glad this is finally fixed.

Cant Unlock Brush Tip Shape

I am using CS5 (really new at it) and one of my brush tip shapes I need unlocked wont unlock, I click on the "locked lock" which is greyed out, and nothing happens, how can I unlock this? I am wanting to unlock the smoothing tip.
Thanks..

Make sure that you have the Spacing checkbox selected in the Brush Tip Shape section.

Trying to delete pages 21-24 on iPhoto book but "remove pages" option grayed out and pressing delete button not doing anything. Help!

Trying to delete pages 21-24 on iPhoto book but "remove pages" option grayed out and pressing delete button not doing anything. These extra pages resulted from using Autoflow and now we can't seem to get rid of them. Help!

Good morning Old Toad.
I did as you suggested:
1) Booted from install CD.
2) Ran Disk Utilities on internal hard drive--no repairs necessary. For good measure, did the same thing on external drive. Also no repairs necessary.
3) Checked software update--no updates found. About this Mac said I was already running 10.4.7. For good measure, I downloaded the latest and installed it. Since it let me run the install, I'm not sure if I installed something new or reinstalled what I already had.
4) I rebooted from CD, ran disk utilities, ran repair disk--no repairs necessary. Repaired permissions and a lot of permissions repaired.
5) Tried to delete the files and the same old thing happened: kernel panic. The specific message:
panic(cpu 0 caller 0x00102A08): jnl: transaction too big (1587712 >= 1572352 bytes, bufsize 8192, tr 0x29f1fb0 bp 0x2801de40)
So there's no change in my status.
I'm trying to delete the files because:
A) They already take .5 Gb.
B) I can't get rid of them ever. If I move the problem files to a different folder, I can only do one successful drag-and-drop backup to the external drive until the "new" thumb segments become unerasable just like the previous versions and crash the system.
C) I can't even "just" drag and drop every file/folder except the thumbs, because that ends up crashing the system as well. So I have to drag and drop every file/folder in the iPhoto hierarchy individually. Which makes me less inclined to backup, which defeats the purpose of a backup.
D) After the iPhoto fiasco I'm just crabby about all the Apple screw-ups I'm experiencing and I want to get them fixed.
Thanks for your help. Any additional suggestions would be appreciated.

IMovie 9.0.4, all export options grayed out. Have I missed a step?

I'm still on OS 10.6 so I can't udate iMovie software. I have a little movie, under 4:00, finished and want to export but all options grayed out. Have I missed a finishing step or is this just an obsolete software/OS problem? Thanks. Chris

Why are the options grayed out??

Why are the majority of my edit options grayed out. I cant copy and paste

OK. So we've established that you're in Photoshop CC on Windows 7 (nothing to do with Acrobat or Acrobat Reader).
What exactly are you trying to do in Photoshop CC? Can you outline in detail what steps you're taking and what's confusing you?

Sip dialer port export option grayed out in configuration manager ucce 10

Hi,
I am configuring the outbound option for ucce 10, when i configure the sip dialer port (dialer conifguration) in conifiguration manager, i just added 5 ports, i can see this ports showing in dialer process on the PG, but i need to export this ports to Unified communication manager, i could not able to export it because this option grayed out (i did select all, or individual selection both are having export option grayed out)
Any idea?
with Regards,
Manivannan

Exporting port configuration is only allowed for SCCP, in SIP Dialer Deployment its actually not needed and that why its grayed out.
//but i need to export this ports to Unified communication manager//
in Sip Dialer you don't need to create any Port For Dialer under CUCM. its only required in SCCP.
Sip Dialer port Directly registers with VG.

Brush Tip Shape

Under Brush Tip Shapes, the "Shape Dynamics" option will not turn off even after I uncheck the option to have it turned on. When I try to paint, "Shape Dynamics" continues to turn back on automatically as soon as I apply the brush tool. How do I stop the "Shape Dynamics" brush tip shape to stay turned off? Is this a glitch or is there another way to turn it off? I am using PsCS6. The second image shows how even when I turn it off, the shape dynamics is still affecting the brush tip.

If you using a drawing tablet, do you have Override Pressure enabled in the tool options bar?

Why is the email option grayed out from iphoto sharing

I am running iPhoto 9.5.1 on Mavericks. When I select a photo and try to share it the share menu has email and all the social meida options grayed out. Checking accounts in iPhoto my email accounts are there. I tried deleting and reinserting the one I want to use and restarting iPhoto, but it is still grayed out.

You need to update yoru profile - it says OS X 10.6.8
In the iPhoto preferences select an email client (I personally prefer Mail) and if you are using iphoto enter your email information in teh accounts tab (If you use Mail it will use yuro existing sset up)
Same for social media - enter your account information in the accounts tab

Scripe error ? option grayed out

I
I When I go to edit my page an alert pops up ... an error has occured in the scripe on this page . What does this mean and what is it doing to the program or preventing me from doing ?
I have a lot of options grayed out and not able to use when editing or making new pages? << highlight color, change text color, change size, change fonts. >> resizing images, page properties 5 out of 7 options grayed, etc. ... I checked under Administrators and all there looks okay and I am the only one using the program. I have gone to the Administrator Settings, then styles/fonts/size and all check for my use.
OOnly on two of my main pages are all of the options available to use on either a New or Edit page but none are available on the other tabbed pages of my website. Even if I cut and paste a document the color, size and font changes to what is on the page.

Don't make a text selection, but simply put your text cursor in the text with the new formats. Most likely, you have a mix of character formats selected.

Paste as Background option grayed out

I'm using Captivate1. When I edit a slide, I select Copy
Background, edit it in Paint, copy it from Paint and try to Paste
as Background into Captivate. The Paste as Background option is
grayed out. It doesn't happen all the time. Sometimes I have to
close the project and reopen it and the option is working. This
time it doesn't work. There's nothing in online help about this so
I hope someone in the forum might shed some light on this.
Thanks.

I started tracking what I was doing before the graying out
occurred. It seems like if I copy and tweak (in Paint) more than 8
or so backgrounds in a row, then the Paste as Background option
grays out. It's like the system is tired of me copy and pasting
back into Captivate. When I shut everything down and reopen it,
then the paste memory clears and the option is available. Now by
all means, this is not a technical explanation for what happens,
but it's just what I'm observing.
And yes, I'm patiently waiting for the powers that be to
approve my upgrade to Cap2.
Thx

Hi Escapermark,
Have a look at these knowledge base articles, the first one should fix the gray out problem:

Can't apply CU5 - option grayed out

Hello,
I have a local, named sql server 2012 sp1 instance running virtualized on an ESX host with VMWare. We wanted to apply cu5 to this instance and several others for the pages in memory fix. The others worked fine, this instance the option to choose
it for upgrade is grayed out. There were no errors to provide, it was simply unavailable to apply the update. The version of this db is 11.0.3000, like all the others that worked fine.
Anybody?
Thanks kindly,
Dianne

"Enable Disk Use" checkbox is grayed out, can't untick.

Hi,
I just got my new iPod 30 GB video today! I've been reading these discussions, but haven't found an answer for this tiny problem of mine.
"Do Not Disconnect" constantly shows on the iPod screen when it's connected on the computer. Many have suggested ticking off "Enable Disk Use", but here's the problem: it's grayed out, and I can't change it, no matter what. I've gone through iTunes prefs, by right-clicking on the iPod in iTunes and selecting "iPod Options". My system seems to show iPod as a movable disk, but iTunes recognises it and I can easily put music into it, so I guess that isn't a problem (or is it?).
But how could I get my hands on the "Enable Disk Use" checkbox? It just isn't "tickable" now.
Thanks!
Windows XP

If you have your iPod set to manual update, the "Enable Disk Use" box will be greyed out and ticked by default, in that case use Safely remove Hardware icon or check this link: "Disconnecting iPod from your computer
" http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61135
For Info:
The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.

Time Machine not backing up 2nd external drive, remove option grayed out

I have two external hard drives, 300gb (firewire) and 500gb (usb). Time Machine is backing up to the 300gb. In Time Machine's options, the 500gb is excluded from being backed up, and the remove option is grayed out.
The 300gb Time Machine Backup drive is formatted as Mac OS Extended. The 500gb drive is formatted as MS-DOS (FAT32).
I know the backup drive needs to be formatted as Mac OS Extended, but will it not even back up other drives that are FAT32?

I am having a similar problem. I initially set it up 3 days ago and had it back up just the iMac to Time Capsule (about 120 GB) which it did no problem (I initially had my LaCie drive excluded). I then un-excluded my other drive, where all my photos and music reside (about 130 GB). Since then, it keeps trying to back up about 102 GB each time. Looking at the list of backups it does not appear that it has ever successfully backed up the LaCie. I am not aware of any error messages, but I have not been home much. I normally shut down the computer at night but I have been leaving it on trying to let Time Machine do its thing. All I can say is that every time I am at the computer TM is running and it always looks like it is in the middle of backing up 102 GB (usually seems to be near the beginning, never seem to see it more than halfway done). Looking at the TM panel it says the latest backup was 2 days ago. I'd appreciate any advice!

"Approve" menu option grayed out when connected as ORCLADMIN in admin mode

Hi everybody!
When I connect to Content as ORCLADMIN and switch to administration mode, I cannot use the "Approve" option in the menu when I select a non-privilege user library creation pending request 'cause it's grayed out no matter what (also tried configuring another user to be a library administrator and receive requests for approval). I have OCS 10.1.2.0.
Why can't I approve requests for library creation? Would it be a bug or I need to configure or grant something else?
Thanks.

Looks like its to do with language settings
