"Edit Original" greyed out, why?

Hi,
I've placed some PSD files within an A3 project inside of Adobe Illustrator CS3 with some clipping masks applied. Some images need some PhotoShop treatment so I would like to invoke the "Edit Original" command in order to have the desired image open up in PhotoShop for editing (like smart objects) but "Edit Original" is "greyed out" Even when the clipping mask relationship is released the command / feature is still unavailable.
Is there a reason why the "Edit Original" command is unavailable?
Input appreciated.
Cheers :)

Ahh... I didn't see the "Link" check box.
Now everything works :)
Thank you very much sir!
Kind Regards
Alex

In CS5, saving a tiff, the jpg compression is greyed out, why? No layers. It's RGB, 8 bit file.

New email account address greyed out why?

When I try to add a new additional account to mail the email address box is greyed out, why?
I have rebooted but no difference
My fingers are likely at fault but just can't figure out why!

Hi,
Do you mean the "POP or IMAP" bullet is grayed out?
If this is the case, please open your registry editor and check if the following registry values exist and the value data is set to 1:
Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\Options
Name: DisableIMAP
Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\Options
Name: DisablePOP3
If this is the case, change the value data of the two values to 0 and then test the issue again.
Please let me know the result.
Regards,
Steve Fan

Smart BLur is grey out, why?

I am totally new to photoshop, and using cs5 now. I was following a youtube video about smoothing skin. Step by step...to do surface blur and then smart blur. But on the smart blur it was grey out. Couldn't do the smart blur. Can anyone explain why and hopefully help me enable this function?

I suppose.
You could do your blur to a duplicate doc that was converted to 8 bit and paste that layer back into your 16 bit doc. Or convert your 16 bit image to a smart object and then change the mode to 8 bit, embedding the original 16 bit layer for future use.
I'm not sure the disadvantages of moving to 8 bit for this specific picture. One thing would be to do any major color corrections first, to minimize the chance of posterization. You probably don't want to move to 8 bit if your image is in a wide color space like ProPhotoRGB.

Edit is greyed out, how can I cut and paste

when I want to copy something from a web page, I click on the orange "Firefox" but the edit option is greyed out and not usable. How can I cut, copy, and paste in this new format?

You can do one of the following after you have highlighted what you want to copy:
*click the Firefox button, the middle icon (looks like 2 pages with folded corners) will be available for clicking; that icon is "Copy" if you rest your cursor over the icon
*click the Firefox button, click the small triangle at the far right of Edit, click "Copy"
*in Windows, click Ctrl+C to "Copy" (Ctrl+V will "Paste")
I have "Copy", "Paste" and "Cut" buttons on the Customize Palette which you can drag to a toolbar. To open the Customize toolbar window, click Firefox button > Options > Toolbar Layout; if using the Menu Bar, click View > Toolbars > Customize.
*see: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+customize+the+toolbar

Import command on PSE-13 on Mac greyed out - why?

I recently installed an upgrade from PSE-11 to PSE-13 on my Mac running OS10.9.5 and the Import command under the File pull down menu is greyed out preventing me from inputting images from my scanner.

Hi, I have just upgraded from PSE11 to 13 and like many many people I find the Import / Export menu item is greyed out so I can no longer Import from my scanner which was fine in PSE11 - very frustrating !!! I have of course installed the plugin as advised but this does not work and yes at startup Twain building is apparently being carried out.
As stated in a previous Post one-on-one email support does not exist and Adobe just send a user in a loop of FAQs which never address the issue effectively. We appear to be suffering from Corporate Arrogance just like Apple. If one pays for support then maybe things, that should never have been a problem in the first place, get resolved. Why don't Adobe just remove the item from the menu and put us out of our misery.
I suppose it won't be long before Adobe will want monetise the use of Reader !!

Open iTunes option greyed out - why?

Hello - I am wondering why, when connecting my ipad to my mac, it opens up in iPhoto, and why the open iTunes option is greyed out on the summary page. Any ways to change this? Thanks!

You can do this while the iPad is connected to the Mac.
Launch iTunes on the Mac and from the menu at the top go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and see if the box at the bottom - prevent iPods, iPhones .... from syncing automatically is checked. If it is checked - uncheck it. Then go to the Summary Tab and you should be able to check - Open iTunes when this iPad is connected.
I think this may be something that you can try as well. Go to System Preferences on your Mac and click on Accounts. Open your user account - you will need the administrator password - go to Login Items and make sure that iTunes Helper is checked.
For the iPhoto issue - launch iPhoto and from the menu - iPhotos>Preferences>General>Connecting Camera Opens no application.

Acrobat X Pro Form Edit option greyed out

Acrobat X Professional running on Win7 32bit.
We are converting a word document into PDF with Acrobat, however after the file is converted the option to Edit Form is greyed out.
The same word document can be converted on other PCs with Adobe X Pro, where the Form Editing tools are available to use.

Do you see other Editing options like Distribute Forms, create etc? Are they all greyed out?
If that is the case- Look for Form (AcroForm.api) under Help->Adobe Acrobat Plug-ins. Is that available?
Check the conversion settings under Preferences-> Convert to PDF-> Select MS word from the list. Look if there is any security set.

Server app v3.01 User Accounts password add/reset/editing functions greyed out

I recently upgraded a Lion server to Mavericks with 1500 users and 450 clients on Xserve early2009 2.26Ghz Quad core Xeon 24GB RAM 32 TB Raid.
        All the upgrade went ok through 10.7 to 10.8 to 10.9 apart from having to rekerberise the realm to get users to log in from various 10.7,10.8,10.9x10) clients . I do not use Profile Manager as yet as I have had lots of faults on test networks etc so I continue to use Workgroup Manager 10.9 and Server app v3.01 now that Server Admin Tools has been discontinued.
        I have noticed however that all my users in Accounts/Server App are not editable such as password resets adding and deleting users etc. If you choose Edit User all the information shows but is greyed out for editing etc.
I still use WorkGroup Manager for adding/editing users and changing passwords which still functions(thank goodness).
        Am I missing something in that I cant edit/add users because I upgraded from a previous directory and OS etc? Do I have to accept the server app wont edit/add users and stick with WGM? Or are there serious underlying faults with my open directory?
         There are also lots of quirks in the File Sharing pane with users hanging on after logging out from clients and duplicates of log ins when they log in again. Today I restarted my server to update the Server app to 3.01 and i got a message saying 361 users were logged in although no users were showing in the File Sharing pane for about 12 hours! Obviously there is some problem with the termination of the log out process in AFP that doesnt take place. Since reboot this morning the memory usage has dramatically decreased so I am waiting to see if the errors return when we get a busy network situation later today.
Anyone had tthese problems or fixed the issues?

Just to update my post I referred to the the brilliant Krypted site to see if anything would help my situation and found this post on resetting the Server.app. I havent had time to try this yet but I'd like others to comment if they try it first:
"Unresponsive Server After Mavericks Upgrade? Reset Server App
The Server 3 app is great. But when you go making changes to some things, you’re just going to cause problems, sometimes something as simple as just upgrading to the latest and greatest version of Server… I know, you’ve been told that host name changes and IP changes are all kinds of OK at this point; “look, Charles, there’s a button!” Well, go ahead, click it. Don’t mind me, you might just be alright. But then again, you might not… And upgrades that use a migration wizard… Um, when it works it’s a thing of beauty. But when it doesn’t, you might be restoring some stuff from backup. But just before you do that restore, let’s try one more thing. Let’s try and rebuild some certificates and configuration settings that shouldn’t impact actual service operation. Let’s try to reset the Server app and let a fresh install of the Server see if it can fix issues.
Now, I want to be clear, this is the last resort before restoration. I’ve had a lot of luck with services remaining functional and preserving settings when I do this, but don’t expect that. Basically, we’re going to do what we looked at doing back in ’09 with AppleSetupDone but one designed just for servers, so the file is in the same place (/var/db) and called .ServerSetupDone. To remove it, close Server app and run the following command:
sudo rm /var/db/.ServerSetupDone
Once removed, open the Server app again and then let the Server app run as though it’s new. Cruft, begone!"

Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
