Greyed-out file icon in Pages on iPhone 4

I somehow ended up with a greyed-out file icon (Pages) on my iPhone 4 after uploading it to the cloud from my Mac. It won't delete and is not recognized as even existing when I attempt to write over it. Any ideas how I might be able to delete it? It's showing a progress bar, but no "progress" is occuring. I've tried everything short of resetting my phone (turned phone off and back on, deleted Pages and reloaded it, turned iCloud off and back on, etc.

Problem went away on its own, I think after I moved some files from my desktop to the Trash and deleted them from my computer.

Indisign scripting and cross-media export - Xhtml / Dreamweaver

Hi.
I've searched for the solution but haven't found it yet. Hope you'll help me.
I need to write a script which will transform all indd files in the selected folder to xhtml. But I cannot find methods for exporting files to xhtml in JS (like menu -> File -> Cross-media export -> Xhtml / Dreamweaver). Is it possible? how?
P.S. Using CS3
Thanks

Thanks Olav, that would be very helpful if you could.
You're right, and XSLT is what Java uses for the CS2 version of
this project. We never used ExtendScript to do anything other than
mapping styles to XML.
I was hoping to avoid too many details, but this might benefit the discussion:
Original need:
We use an open source project called Sakai (Learning Management System)
that comes with documentation which we rebranded every time a new release
was rolled out. Our implementation of the Sakai LMS is called TRACS here at
Texas State University|San Marcos and we have a pretty strong demand for
consistentcy and adhering to project and university level branding guidelines.
Our support staff was using word documents and spent a laborious 2 months
minimum with their workflow getting everything migrated. Our branding needs
were steep. I was the graphic designer at the time the brand was created
and saw branding issues with the word docs being authored. We constantly
fought issues with inconsistent formatting (logo placement, logo version,
leading, fonts, etc.).
Automation with ExtendScript was the answer (and Java, AppleScript).
What took a variety of people with differing MS word skill sets 2 months
now took a mere 5 minutes or less.
Rough outline of our app:
Our Java process looks at a watched folder and coordinates the automation
with receipts that are written out after each phase is done.
Our Word documents are formatted with identically named character
and paragraph styles that are found in our InDesign template.
Java grabs a list of all the word docs to be processed, writes out an include
to be used later for our ExtendScript.
ExtendScript systematically takes each one in the array:
- takes care of flowing in the word doc
- page numbering
- mapping styles to tags
- PDF export
- XML export
- XML cleanup (some trash comes over from the export)
- XHTML generation
- writes receipts at each phase to tell JAVA it's ready for
the next phase as flow control
Java picks up the receipt, transforms XML (using XSLT) to XHTML snippets that
the end user copy/pastes into our Content Management System. Ultimately, we'll
shoot for direct DB inserts, but we have to get the dust off the CS2 version
before we can discuss that again.
In regards to not using XSLT:
A recent test we did showed that InDesign CS4 had the ability to export very clean XHTML
based on style sheets applied to items in the document. Effectively, that negates our
need for XML mapping of stylesheets and the use of XSLT.
That is, if cross-media exports can be automated.

Greyed-out Files in the Open File Dialog Box

I recently installed Logic Express 8 and then attempted to open a Garageband project. I used 'File Open' from the menu. When I click on my Garageband folder the dialog box shows all the .band files as greyed-out. This is also happening with older version of Logic Express such as the Tutorial song file.
Anyone with a idea or seen this before?

It seems to be a rather glaring bug in LE8 that will hopefully be fixed in the next update. In the meantime you can open LE8 files by going to File/Open Recent after launching. From there, other files can be opened by clicking on the Media button on the top right and then the Browser tab. Find your file & double click to open it. Also, you can just double-click a file on your desktop to launch Logic.
GarageBand files can be opened by right-clicking and selecting "open with LE8."

Hi Manoj,

How to fix Hide Mail option greyed out in Mail menu?

I can no longer hide Mail in Mountain Lion 10.8.2 by using the Command-H keyboard cammand or by selecting "Hide Mail" in the Mail menu since the option is greyed out. Not a problem in any other program. Is this perhaps a corrupt preference file?

Are you using Full Screen. If so, the option isn't available as you can just switch desktops to "hide" whatever is in Full Screen.

Application bar is greyed out under window menu

Although I can see an application bar on my document, it is "greyed out" under the window menu. Specifically when I click the icon to arrange documents ie - tile vertically/horizontally - everything is greyed out

Cell Text greyed out in Hyperion Menu of Excel

Hi all,
anybody has an idea why the Cell Text Menu is greyed out in Excel via Smart View when I am accessing my Essbase cube. When I am using the Excel Add-in I can edit the Cell Text.
Thanks,
Bernd

We use Cell text (link related object) in our Essbase Cube where we pull data with Excel Addin and Hperion Financial Reports. So far our users are modifying the cell with Excel-Addin.
This means that Smart View cannot provide the option to modify cell text for Essbase analysis?
Thanks,
Bernd

New User Question: How do I enable comments in Reader when this option is greyed out on my menu?

I cannot figure out what I am missing here. I have a PDF Portfolio completed and now want to E-Mail for Review. But this option is greyed out on my Comment Menu dropdown list. What to do? Thanks!

Two Places to Check
In iChat in the Video menu (May say Audio) to the right of the Buddies one there is Camera Enabled. It should show a tick next to it.
Next in the View Menu the Show Video Status item also needs a tick.
If those two items are ticked then go to the Apple icon top left > About this Mac > More Info button to open the System Profiler.
Use the reveal Triangles and go to Hardware > USB and see if the camera is listed.

Browser Has Disappeared and is Greyed Out in the Menu

I moved the project tab out to enlarge it to find a clip and in trying to put it back lost the Effects tab and the Browser. The tab with the project name is there but no Browser. (Everyone on previous posts seems to have solved it on their own! ) How can I get it back?
Lee

Uh-oh. I did the Control U and all my clips have disappeared. I normally work with the Viewer, Canvas, Browser across the top half of the screen. The Timeline and tool bar are in the bottom half. Where in the world are all the clips, etc??? (This project has been a nightmare!) Keep in mind I had to fetch a version of the project from the autovault and use it when I had a render issue that froze up my program. Hmmm. . . . .maybe I ought to go under File and click on the version I was using eh?
HELP!

Photoshop CC 2014 (same happens in illustrator). Filter gallery (not greyed out, file is regular 8bit rgb) will not work. Error message "the operation could not be completed". Tried throwing out preferences etc.

Anyone know why this happened after last photoshop update?

Type Terminal in Spotlight (The magnifying glass or to the right of your name on the Mac menu bar) and double click it to start it up.
Copy and paste the command at the prompt ($) and it should look like this. Press Enter, type your password, then Enter again.
What I'm think is that if the permissions of the App Support folder were altered, that might explain why things are refusing to work properly
It's an idea, it won't hurt anything, and if we are lucky it will fix the problem.

Greyed Out Extra Music Files--Aggravating!

Okay. I have multiple iPods and one iPad. I am having an issue with duplicate greyed-out files showing in iTunes (11.1.3.8) on my computer (Windows 7 64 bit) whenever I connect the iPad (7.0.4) for syncing. I have looked through multiple other "greyed-out file" threads and none of them seem to exactly match this issue.
When I purchase music from iTunes, I immediately convert the files to MP3 format and delete the originals before syncing with devices. The iPad would always grab the original files before I could stop it and I would end up with duplicate files; this forced me to remove all of that artist's files from the iPad and then re-insert them after deleting the originals again. Today I figured out it was automatically downloading the files as soon as I purchased them (it was the "auto download files bought with other devices" setting).
But a new issue has now arisen. I have a small set of songs purchased last night/today that seem to be "stuck". As usual, I bought them from iTunes, then converted them to MP3, deleted the originals, and synced them to the iPad. Both the computer and the iPad now only show the MP3 versions (like I want them to). However, when I plug the iPad in to the computer for syncing, there are extra files shown when I click the "on this iPad" tab. All of them are duplicates of other MP3 files. They are greyed out, have no "kind" showing and have the little "wheel" on the left as if they are trying to sync. I can find no trace of the files on the computer or the iPad, both behave as if they don't exist. Yet I selected to manually manage the files and tried deleting them, and it showed that they were affecting the space available! I deleted them and then tried syncing again, and they all showed back up again! Arrgghh!!! It seems as though the computer believes the files are still there, yet they're not (and somehow they ARE affecting the iPad space). And this screen is the only place that displays them. Can anyone tell me how to get them purged from the computer so it will stop trying to sync them to the iPad?

I think I'm having the same issue and it only affects music purchased directly from iTunes. My iTunes music library on my computer shows one instance of each track and they're all synced to my iPad and iPhone (but may have originally been purchased and downloaded directly to iPad or iPhone). I have both set to convert tracks down to 128Kbps (in case this is affecting things). When I connect my iPad to iTunes and look at the music stored on the iPad I get a similar result to the screenshot above - greyed out songs and, in some cases, up to three 'versions' of the same track - but this is not always consistent even within a single album. The iPad itself only shows one instance of each track as does the computer's music library. I deleted one of the albums completely from my computer (and deleted from Trash) and then synced my iPad but the album was still on my iPad (although a couple of the tracks showed the iCloud icon). I switched off my Wi-Fi to ensure that the iPad had no connection to the internet and the tracks still played so they must be saved on my iPad somewhere even though, at that point, they weren't on my computer and I had just completed a sync.
I did notice when I looked at the bit rate and size information in iTunes (iPad Library) that where there were three instances of the same song there was a mixture of 128Kbps, 256Kbps and Stream.
I haven't managed to find any solution to this so far but thought I would add my experience in case anybody has figured this out?
Thanks,
Matt

IIcannot invite my buddies to video chat. The option is greyed out. I have ichat 6.0.1. What's weird is that I was able to connect to the same users (who all have macs) when I first got my mac six months ago. I have a macbook pro. I am running Lion.

The video icon does not appear next to the users' names, and it is greyed out in the menu screen. What is weird is that I was able to chat with the same buddies successfully in the past? And sporadically, they are able to invite me. But otherwise, it doesn't work. I can't invite them to video chat. They are all mac users with built in cameras, so why won't this work? The video chat option was a huge reason for my getting a mac to keep in touch with my family. Can you help me out?
Thanks

Hi,
So the Bandwidth Limit was set at None and is now set at 500kbps
This should smooth out any variances that high speed interent connections have.
The Speed test results.
The Ping thing is measured in microseconds.
It is the time taken for one single packet of data to get to the server is question and get back info that it got there.
Smaller numbers are better.
You then have Download speed. The Headline speed that the ISPs tell you about (They may even tell you have fast a movie of music file will download)
The Upload speed is the most important here as iChat is Sending (uploading) your Picture and Sound to your Buddy.
The results you post are in Mbps (Megabits per sec) or part of.
The Minimum for iChat is measured in kbps (kilobits per sec)
For 1-1 video chats this is about 128kbps - So you have an upload about 6 times this.
The Min for 3 and 4 way Video Chats is 384kbps and you have about twice this speed (0.69Mbps = About 690kbps - more than enough)
NOTE:
The math used here is rough - using based 10 whereas in fact it is actually base 8
Some other Checks
iChat will Video to any Buddy using iChat form any type of Buddy List
This means it will Video to Google Buddy using a Jabber Buddy List as long as the Buddy is also using iChat
The same is true in iChat 6 of the Yahoo option.
With AIM Names it should (I stress Should) also video chat to PC users using AIM for PC or the Trillian App with the Pro extension (which Costs) - people seem to get better result with Trillian than with AIM.
iChat will NOT video to anyone (PC or Mac) logged in to the Google Mail web Chat (either on iGoogle or and Google Mail page for their Account).
Nor to the Standalone PC app called GoogleTalk.
If you are using a Yahoo Buddy list it will not Video to a PC user using the PC Yahoo App nor to a Mac user using the Yahoo for Mac Beta 3 (not matter what build).
Any in this section will not show Video or Audio icons.
