Grayed out lock button on file

Hi;
I have two (that I know of) files for which the Lock Button (with Lock invoked) and Ownership and Permissions Detail fields are grayed.
I can't delete or replace the files.
Help is appreciated.
Chris

You're not the administrator? If the checkbox is dimmed, you probably don't have permission to move or edit the file.

  • PowerPivot button grayed out for existing .xlsx files

    Hi,
    I have been working with PowerPivot in Excel 2010 for some time now with no issue till this morning when any existing report (.xlsx) file does not allow me to go to the PowerPivot window (grayed out mostly. sometimes it shows up and when I click it the PowerPivot
    window opens up and gets stuck with a message ' Preparing the Power pivot window .. please wait'). The field list is grayed out too and I am not able to add any new pivot table or chart. Existing slicers are all working. Also new .xlsx files are working (able
    to open PowerPivot).
    I reinstalled Office and the PowerPivot add on, tried to disable/enable add on in Excel -> Options and made sure it is not in the 'Disabled' list.
    I just tried on a different computer and faced the same problem there too.
    Appreciate any help or ideas you can provide.
    I am using PowerPivot Version 11.0.3000.0 and Excel version 2010 14.0.6023.1000 (32 bit).
    Thanks.

  • Greyed out "locked" button/ strange behaviour

    anyone got any idea why virtually all my files and folders have the "locked" button greyed out? (g4 under osx 10.3.9). even if i make a brand new folder it's lock is greyed out (i thought it might have been a permissions conflict from copying stuff from other computers/ drives at first, but it seems that now this function is simply unavailable. the permissions all look ok (i am the owner of the files/ folders, i have read & write access, as do all groups and users. i have a great freeware application called File Examiner that will over-ride any permissions and that will sort out any essential files, but it is just plain wierd that when i am the owner i can't perform this simple function. is it advisable to repair permissions on the whole computer or is there some risk involved? bearing in mind that i have 1200mb of external drive storage (mainly music stuff). i have selected the main folder on some of the drives and changed every permission to Read & Write and then clicked "apply to enclosed items" and that made no difference (although it did correctly change the permissions)
    These same folders have been copied to another drive downstairs, attached to a mac mini (under tiger). this has resulted in another strange problem whereby my music library behaves like it is locked and won't let me move files/ folders around. The "locked" button on the folders is actually available (which is strange as they were copied from the 10.3.9/g4 with the grey "locked" buttons), but not selected. i "solved" this problem by clicking it on, then off again.
    something wierd is happening. help

    thanks again for your help & patience - much appreciated
    my os is exactly the same as the one you described [Mac OS x 10.3.9 (7W98), Darwin 7.9.0.
    however, that menu item is definately nowhere to be found...i know the menu you are describing as i use it all the time, but i don't remember ver having seen this "file util" option.
    i am slightly concerned as i'm wondering whether this has something to do with another issue i'm having: i have built a music library on various external drives connected to my g4/panther. when i connect a drive to my intel mac mini (tiger 10.4.10) and delete files/ folders they still show up in searches afterwards (in spotlight, or using the search bar in the finder) - however, it shows up with a blank icon, uses zero k, does not give any location, is "read only", and if you double-click it a message comes up saying that it is an alias and the original can no longer be found. it then gives me the 3 options usually associated with a broken alias - "delete", "fix alias" or "ok". none of these achieve anything. it is like it has retained a "ghost" of the deleted file. as you can imagine this could gradually become ridiculous as searching will show endless nonsence that no longer really exists.
    never seen anything like it. if i create and delete a file or folder on the same drive from the mac mini things behave as normal....it just happens with data written to the drives when connected to the g4/panther
    conversely, if i reconnect the drive to the g4 and search for any of these "ghost" files it does not find them.
    i also had a brief period the other day where i couldn't move anything around in my root "mp3 library" folder on a drive connected to the mac mini (as if my root "mp3 library" folder was locked or read only - niether of which were indicated). i eventuallly "solved" it by locking the root "mp3 library" (under "get info"....by god! it actually works in tiger!) and then unlocking it again. maybe, due to the wierdness gong on with the greyed out 'locked" folders coming across from panther, tiger saw them as locked when they wern't.
    sorry to ramble on but this is bending my mind
    some very strange things going on

  • Grayed-out "Send" button

    Yesterday I had no problems sending messages, but this morning when I tried to send an email, the "Send" button is grayed out, not allowing me to send any messages. I tried changing the recipient, but it's grayed out on any message that I try to send.
    Any ideas? Thanks.

    Probably an "offline" SMTP server.
    Meaning under "accounts" pref in Mail. There is a server that is listed under "Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)" is probably listed as offline. If you click on it, the option to bring it back online should be presented.

  • Can we Hide/Gray out Edit button in RFx Screen

    Hi guruzzz...
        I have a requirement, where i have to disable or hide the Edit button in RFx depending on document status. I am new to this SRM do we have any option to do this ( i heard dynamic control class etc.. not sure). I am working in SRM 7.0.
    Thanks and Regards
    Sree

    You'd have to locate the proper WebDynpro component and View information by positioning your mouse on the screen element, such as the column, and right click. On the context menu, select "More Field Help". There you should have -
    General Information About the Application and Component
    Application: /SAPSRM/WDA_L_FPM_OIF
    Web Dynpro Component: /SAPSRM/WDC_AODC_BEV_ACT
    Window Information: IV_L_FPC_CA_DETAILS
    View Information: V_BID_ACTIVITY
    Configuration ID: /SAPSRM/WDCC_AODC_BEV_ACT_RFQ
    Then launch SE80, find the view and enhance it by removing those columns you don't want to have.

    What version of OBIEE are you using? Assuming you are using 11g, providing a solution to enable cache in RPD.
    1) Go to enterprise Manager.
    2) Navigate to Business Intelligence > Core Application
    3) Click on capacity Management tab > Performance
    4) Lock and edit > Make sure cache enabled option is checked. ( This will add an entry to your NQSConfig file.
    Hope this answers your question.

  • 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.

  • Publish to .Mac grayed out

    I published an iWeb site, and then updated and published it again. I didn't see all of my changes, which likely was a left over cache issue. However, using the sledgehammer approach, I accessed my iDisk and deleted the published site's files and folders with the goal re-publishing the new files. Now in iWeb, the Publish button is grayed out (unavailable) as is File>Publish to .Mac. Granted, deleting the site the way I did from iDisk was probably wrong, but who knew? So I've rebooted, cleared cache, and even synced in an attempt to somehow re-anitimate (make available; ungray) the iWeb Publish button. I can and have published to a folder. Any ideas? Thanks.

    I think you need to change something slightly to turn the pages red so you can republish. iWeb doesn't know you deleted your site.
