Garageband options greyed out; nothing opens

Hi all,
I have searched the Discussions and the internet for a solution to this but cannot find one that works.
I can open Garageband but once open, I have no access to any option other than *Open Recent*, which has nothing listed. I cannot open any .band files from the Garageband folder in HD.
I have repaired permissions and deleted the .plist.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? I really need access to Garageband to create a file for a play which is opening soon.
Thanks in advance.
Chris

I've got the same problem.....nothing happens dragging the file either onto gb or desktop

When OpenGL stopped working (option greyed out)

I discovered a weird bug in Photoshop 12.1 x64 with nVidia graphic cards and what´s causing it:
Problem (on all off my PCs): OpenGL support in prefs / performance is greyed out, no shadow below open documents visible ( == OpenGL not working). After deleting prefs.psp and restarting (as the www says), OpenGL support was working again, on next restart: no support - option greyed out again.
Solution: if deleting the prefs file or the whole prefs folder don´t work, check if you have a custom workspace with the brush floating panel open.
If so, close it and remvoe it from workspace, restart PS and.... OpenGL support is working again!
I could reproduce this bug on all of my PCs, no matter what type of GFXcard and driver version is installed.
Maybe that bug occurs only with Win7 x64, PS 12.1 x64 and nVidia cards, but removing the brush panel solved it on every machine!!
I´ve opened a support ticket and provided Adobe with screenshots of the working and not-working states... maybe they can fix this with an update!
This are my system specs for the tested machines:
workstation 1:
Intel i7 980X HexaCore (with SMT)
ASUSP6T7 WS Supercomputer
6 x 4GB DDR3 triple channel
nVidia Quadro CX
3x WD SATAII HDDs
dual monitor
Wacom Intuos4 XL
3Dconnexion SpaceExplorer
contour Shuttle Pro2
workstation 2:
Intel i7 975 Extreme Quadcore (with SMT)
ASUS P6T Deluxe V2
6 x 2 GB DDR3 triple channel
nVidia GTX 580
2x WD SATA HDD
both systems running on:
Windows 7 x64
Mastercollection CS5.5
latest updates for OS, CS5.5 and GFX drivers...
Maybe this threat helps .... ;-)

I did heavy testing the last days including systems at my home and at a friends office.
In fact, I can´t tell, what´s causing this, but it seems to depent on a certain type of installation. But first the tested systems:
nVidia GTX480 SLI, Win 7 x64, CS5.5 - working
nVidia GTX580 Win7, CS5 - working
ATI HD4870x2, Win7 x64, CS5 - working
nVidia GTX580, Win 7 x64, CS5.5 (update from CS4 ->CS5 -> CS5.5) - not working
nVidia GT240M, Win7 x64, CS5.5 - working
ATI X1900XT - XP SP3 x64, CS5 - working
nVidia QuadroCX, Win 7 x64, CS5.5 (update from CS4 ->CS5 -> CS5.5) - not working
ATI HD4390, XP x64 SP3, CS5.5 (update from CS4 ->CS5 -> CS5.5) - not working
nVidia GTX480, Win 7 x64, CS5.5 - working
On each system I installed the latest driver & updates, rebooted it and followed the same procedure:
1 - removed (==renamed) prefs folder
2 - start PS
3 - open prefs / performace
4 - config OpenGL for "Advanced"
5 - closing prefs and restarting PS
6 - checking OpenGL when active: pt7
7 - Open menu "Window" and and select "Brush" (or press F5)
8 - docking Brush-panel from original position to the tools-panel on the left
9 - saving workspace as "BrushTest"
10 - restarting PS
11 checking OpenGL
Since you have all older Versions still installed when you update i.e from CS4 to CS5 I tried this with every installed version.
On my two office WS I have CS4, 5 and 5.5.
After trying this with the GTX580 with this results: CS4 working, CS5 working, CS5.5 not working - I today started PS 12.1 for working and saw that tiny shadow below the document - WITH the brush panel open!!
Checked it and now its working proper. I have no clue what has changed over night but it did it...
My primary WS with the Quadro card still refuses to actived OpenGL with the opend brush-panel, no matter what I try.... maybe I gonna deinstall that CS4 to 5.5 mess and get me another license for the full CS5.5 instead of the update from the update...

No Sound; All options greyed out

Output options for sound are greyed in Preferences and the desktop sound icon. In the Audio MIDI Setup window, the default output says Built-in Output and the System Output also says Built-in Output. No other options available for either.
Just below halfway down there is Audio Input, which has a bunch of info on the left, but on the right where it says Audio Output, there is just a greyed out message that says Output is Not Supported.
I also tried the option/apple/p/r, got the three chimes, but sound is still greyed out.
Any gurus out there who can tell me what simple thing I did to cause this, or is it a hardware/sofware bug?
Macbook Pro Core Duo 2 Mac OS X (10.4.8) 2 gig SDRAM 2.33 GHZ Core Duo 2

it doesn't matter if you've used the ports or not.. there is a sensor inside the audio ports that will automatically switch your audio in and/or out into digital mode if it trips and then 'thinks' there's a digital cable connected. basically, if you open your sound control panel and display the output pane and it says 'digital out', and the volume control (and everything else) is greyed out, and it says something about this device not having volume control... then this is exactly the situation where the port sensor has clicked on to digital and is staying there. unfortunately, the sensor seems to be quite fragile and there are plenty of users that are suddenly wondering why they have no sound, and why the sound ouput only says digital and the options are greyed out. it would be at least a comfort to be able to say that this only can happen if you've been plugging things into the port (such as headphones), but I've heard of this happening to people regardless.
anyway, look for the signs I mentioned: the digital output option being the only available choice in the sound control panel, with options greyed out. and also a red light coming out of the port. if this is happening to you, then you need to get the machine fixed cos that sensor is jammed.

Select option greyed out for fields of custom DataSource (rso2, rsa6)

Hi
Why are several fields, in my custom DataSource (created in rso2) not available for select?
I do not think this is a permission issue, since several fields are selectable, but not all fields.
It is not the data type, since I see other custom DataSources that have the same data type, and it is selectable as a select option.
This is not a DataSource that was provided by SAP, it is completely custom, and uses a custom data definition (defined as a structure via se11), and a custom function.
I have read the responses to similar questions, but have not found an answer that explains how to make the field selectable for select.
What determines which fields can be selected for selection, and which fields have this option greyed out (not selectable)?
I have come across multiple answers, for similar questions, that suggest an abap program to directly update table roosfield.
Is this safe?
IF I choose this route will I need to run the update program on production, or will the change it makes to my dataSource transport with my transport?
(I can test this).
What I most need to know is If this suggestion is safe, or if it has side effects?
Thank you

Hi Eileen,
In Least case to enable the selection for the fields with the below program:
Below code is for your reference which will use to unhide objects in RSO2 or RSA6 for Data source( in code for BELNR, KUNNR, VBELN, BUDAT fields are unhiding for 0fi_ar_4 data source selection option) . Still need any clarifications let me know.
SE38: Create a program for ref below code.
REPORT ZNP_SELE_DS.
tables: ROOSFIELD.
UPDATE ROOSFIELD SET SELECTION = 'P'
WHERE OLTPSOURCE = '0FI_AR_4' AND OBJVERS = 'A' AND FIELD = 'BELNR'.
UPDATE ROOSFIELD SET SELECTION = 'P'
WHERE OLTPSOURCE = '0FI_AR_4' AND OBJVERS = 'A' AND FIELD = 'KUNNR'.
UPDATE ROOSFIELD SET SELECTION = 'P'
WHERE OLTPSOURCE = '0FI_AR_4' AND OBJVERS = 'A' AND FIELD = 'VBELN'.
UPDATE ROOSFIELD SET SELECTION = 'P'
WHERE OLTPSOURCE = '0FI_AR_4' AND OBJVERS = 'A' AND FIELD = 'BUDAT'.

Internet Options greyed out in Internet Explorer 9 because of GPO settings in Windows 2008 AD

Internet Options greyed out in Internet Explorer 9 because of GPO settings in Windows 2008 AD.
I am trying to find out what GPO setting is causing this so I can change I.E. settings at a desktop running Windows 7.
A GPO has I.E. locked down so settings are greyed out for Intranet settings so I can't change Intranet settings.
How do I enable so I can save changes with a GPO?

Classic GPO using Administrative Templates, is designed to do exactly that (disable the UI).
Previously, you could use IEM in preference mode.
Now, you'll need to use GPP, but there are a couple of limitations.
Check the IE10 IEAK documentation (it's useful for understanding what you can do with GPP)

Why is my WIFI option greyed out!? 4S

Last week I had my iPhone 4S replaced because my wifi option greyed out and the battery life started to drain really fast. 8 days later it's the exact same problem. What's happening here? I bought the phone 11 months ago!!! Up to date software, reset network settings. I have spoke with several other people with the same problem. I expected more from an expensive apple product...
Please help me Apple! Thanks

Your replacement should have a minimum of a 90 day warranty, if replaced by Apple.
If you've followed all of the steps in the troubleshooting article, and your replacement device is still having wi-fi greyed out, then get the device replaced.

Make sure your Intel HD device driver is good Photoshop is having problems when it tries to get information about your graphic GPU

MPB Rendering option greyed out - Win7 k5000

System: Win 7/64; CPU E5-2690 X 2; 64Gb RAM; PP CS6 6.0.5; Quadro K5000 GPU.
Project - Project Settings - General - rendering option greyed out. I've carefully seached the forums, tried various suggestions, but still cannot get to select the drop down box.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Les

Andrew, thanks very much.
Yes - you were correct; while I checked the cuda support txt file, I 'assumed' that 'quadro 5000' would be correct. I edited the file, saved it back to its location, and now have the drop down option working.
Really appreciate,
Regards
Les

Print option greyed-out

G'day
Here's a weird one. About 90% of the time, after I print a file out, the print option in the file menu greys-out, and stays greyed out until I restart CFB. Even if I CANCEL the print screen, the print option greys out.
Windows Vista Business, 64-bit. Stand-alone CFB install.
Adam

That's the "tree hug" feature
Heh.
In my defence, this is the first time I have tried to print something from any of Eclipse, CFE or CFB, in the 7-8yrs I've been using one or other.

Firefox 4.01 downloads files but the downloads windows greys out the "Open" and "Open containing folder" options and I can't trace the files

Three days ago I upgraded to Firefox 4.01. I downloaded several files that were ok. Yesterday and today I downloaded one powerpoint file and a an apple *.dmg file.
On the Download window these two files I can see with the total mb in size. However when I right click the file list in the Download window the "Open" and "Open containing folder" options are greyed out. What is more I cannot find these files anywhere on my computer when I use Windows Explorer to search.
It seems that this happened after I tried to download a Firefox add on from http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/addons/64761/amazonassist-0.7.2.6-fx.xpi and my antivirus picked up the JS/Kryptik.AK trojan and terminated the connection. Is there a link with the problem I am experiencing?
I use Windows 7 professional, Firefox 4.01

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.

Open in Excel option greyed out

i have a Team Site has sheet protection turned on which means that Excel Web App cannot open the file. Clicking on the file entry means a message is correctly displayed confirming this but the option to 'Open
in Excel' is greyed out.

Are you using IE for the same. This option would be enabled in IE
Add the site in compatibility mode
