Hotmail attachment button grayed out in Safari and Firefox

Logging onto Hotmail OK, but when i go to attach a attachment it is now grayed out, used to be fine. Using the latest Firefox and Safari updates....any info would be great, thanks

forget about my last message, if you disable plugins you won't be able to see vids on youtube.
What I did is remove all the plugins that were not for video.
To erase plugins just open safari and be sure to enable plugins on the Preference tab.
So, after you've enabled plugins, Open Safari>Help>Installed plugins
This will show you all the plugins you have installed in your mac. Once you see the list:
1. copy the name of the plugin file
2. open a finder window
3. paste the name of the plugin in the search box of the finder window
4. delete the plugin
It worked for me, I think the culprit was either the Silverlight.plugin or the Quartz Composer.webplugin

  • Safari and Firefox not loading images

    Recently I worked on somebody's MacBook Pro computer (a few months old but software is kept up to date) but I couldn't figure out why Safari and Firefox often would not show images. This person also has a desktop PC computer with the same problem in Internet Explorer. The mac laptop is connected to the internet via wireless and the desktop is wired to a Netgear router. The router is connected to a Motorolla Surfboard 5100 cable modem. The problem started about on the 16th of March. When I tried to open a page in Safari often half of the pictures did not show. In Firefox when I clicked the broken picture icon and selected 'show picture' then it will load. Also, in both browers, clicking refresh will usually, but not always, reload everything correctly. Clicking refresh does the same on the PC in Internet Explorer.
    Safari showed on the status bar there were errors on the page so I opened the Activity window. It said 'failed to connect' or something like that (I don't have the computer in front of me) for the images that did not load. Oddly, not all the images from the same site fail to load. Some will load but others won't. This happened with most sites and it appears to be random.
    I opened a terminal window and typed netstat. With no browser running there were still several connections. I'm not sure if that matters on a Mac in OS X. On a windows computer if there are several connections and no programs are open then there may be a problem with malware.
    It is possible the problem with images not loading has nothing to do with the Mac or Safari since we are having the same problem with the PC. The view images option in all 3 browsers is checked. I tried taking the router out and connecting only the PC to the cable modem. I tried unplugging and replugging all the ethernet cables. The owner of the computers spent a few hours on the phone with her internet provider. In the end they couldn't find what was causing the problem and tech support told her the internet was slow sometimes. We have the same internet provider and I'm having no problems with images on the same sites I viewed on her computer.
    Any ideas?

  • ATTACHMENT TIMES OUT! Mail, Safari and Firefox (Hotmail, ISP webmail)

    I have a problem recently appeared out of blue. It consists of the following:
    every time I try to send attachment the server times out (e-mails without attachments are sent swiftly).
    Mail asks for another server to be able to send e-mail. On Hotmail account and my ISPs webmail (both in Safari and Firefox) it gets stuck until I get logged out from the page.
    I have MacBook Pro and use Tiger 10.4.10 and all the latest software updates. No antivirus software. On the internet side, I have 512 ADSL. Download works fine - full capacity, browsing is good except e-mail clients.
    I did god knows what. Swiched off FileVault, turned off my router's firewall, chatted for hours with my ISP support (he's a hot guy but that wasn't the reason) while fiddling on both ends. Went to the 'hotspot' cafe where the problem continued. Then I realised that it wasn't ISP (thought, never trust a handsome guy) or my router, but something that is affecting both Mail application and browsers. Clients are breathing on my neck for artwork and I am stuck.
    Could it be the latest security update? Could it be magic? Well, I don't believe in magic! Does anyone have a clue?
    Cheers,

  • ICloud email won't send (it tries to send and then freezes, send button grayed out)

    I can recieve email just fine. I can draft an email just fine. But it won't send.  When I hit the send button, the email window goes away and a message box appears and disappears so fast I can't read it.  The email window reapears with the "send" button grayed out.  Once this happens, I can't close the email window.  I have to quit mail.  When I open mail back up, the email will still be there and I can close it.  The send button is no longer grayed out, but if I hit send, the same thing happens (i.e., screen flashes and the send button is grayed out).
    I've tried deleting the acouunt and reforming it.  Didn't help.  I checked to see that my outgoing server is "iCloud" and that it send on port 993 and the SSL check box is checked. 
    Any ideas?

    I'm having the exact same problem on one of my Macs but no the other.
    Did you ever get this resolved?

  • Cannot Approve Journal Batch (Button grayed out in More Actions screen)

    Cannot Approve Journal Batch (Button grayed out in More Actions screen)
    The Journal Batch Approval notification goes to one or more approvers but when any approver opens the journal and tries to approve, the approve batch button is greyed out and nobody can approve the Journal batch. The approver has every authority amount and other wise.
    Any idea what might be wrong? Do I need to setup something in Preference pages etc.,?
    Thanks for your help.

    Are you looking at the Workflow Notifications page or GL page. Please give me the navigation used to reach the page. Typically in workflow notification details page, the Response buttons are either displayed or hidden based on whether the notification has a Result Type attached or not. I don't think they are greyed out based on any rule.
    Workflow notifications does not check the approval authority by itself. Ann appropriate workflow notification with right content and result type should be sent based on the approval authority checked in a previous function activity.
    Thanks

  • Why Are My Text Align Buttons Grayed Out?

    My users are unable to center text when edited pages in CS3 and CS4. The standard paragraph alignment buttons are grayed out.
    All the users of my site have Admin role, and I have set up the role to allow unrestricted editing. And "Allow Users to Apply Styles"... At screenshot of some of my settings is attached. I don't see why Contribute is not allowing this basic element to work.
    Why Are My Text Align Buttons Grayed Out?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I experienced the very same issue, but found an interesting quick-fix that worked for us.
    Several of my webpage content managers reported that they could not change the text alignment in pages created using Dreamweaver nested templates. We use nested editable regions in order to restrict portions of the pages (i.e. banners and navigation menus) from being edited.
    I found that Contribute CS4 could realign text in some parts of the affected pages, but not others.
    Further exam revealed that Contribute could change the alignment on any text that was inside a table on those pages. If I inserted a table and then cut-n-pasted the problem text into the table, the text lost its style/formatting, but it could then have its alignment changed.
    Any text not inside a table could not have the alignment changed by Contribute and changing its style/formatting made no difference.
    One note though: It was interesting that after pasting the text into a table, if I selected a chunk of text, the alignment buttons grayed out again. However, if I simply clicked on the line of text (did not select it), the buttons remained active and the text alignment could be changed.
    I don't know why it is happening. The nested regions were working fine, or so I thought, until recently.
    The above is a quick-fix and got my page content managers back online, but I'm still searching for a long-term solution if anyone has one.
    Good luck...

  • Address Book "Edit" button grayed out...unable to edit

    Had to edit a contact's info and was surprised to find the Edit button grayed out, not allowing me to click it. Repairing permissions has not helped.

    V.K., thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, before I got to try it, I re-launched Address Book one more time and found it will no longer launch. Its Dock icon just keeps bouncing. Not only that, but I've also found that iCal and Mail will no longer launch, either. The iCal calendar pane and the Mail main window open, but the beach ball spins forever. I've never seen this before. Any ideas?
    I tried a different account on the same computer. No problems there.

    ipad 2 - get a gray screen on Safari and can't make selection even though connected to internet...

    Try rebooting the ipad by pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously until the screen goes blank and you see the apple logo. It should take about 10-15 seconds to reboot.

  • Artwork Button Grayed-Out

    I have some MP3s of an unknown sample rate and different bit depths. I would like to add artwork to these files, but iTunes has the artwork button grayed-out. I can convert the MP3s to AAC, but the quality will suffer, and I don't have the original uncompressed audio to start with.
    Is there a solution to this?
    Mac Pro 2.66 GHz Quad Xeon   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   3 GB RAM

    If you do a Get Info on the MP3 in iTunes and select the Artwork tab can you add there?
    If you Ctrl Click the track in iTunes and Show in Finder then do another Get Info are the permissions set correctly?
    Regards,
    Colin R.

  • Join Button Grayed Out

    My iPad connects with no problem at home on my Time Capsule and Airport Extreme Routers. At my office, I can't even find out if it will connect or not, because when I select the network to join it, as soon as I type in a password, the JOIN button grays out making it impossible to connect. On hold now with Apple for 20 minutes and they are scratching their heads. Not a good sign for a device I am otherwise crazy about. Anyone else got this issue? For what its worth, its a Linksys Router at the office.

    Oh heck, nevermind. Turns out I was entering the wrong password. DOH! Nothing to see here, move along.

  • Data source active/inactive button grayed out in LBWE

    Hello,
    When I was activating the Logistics datasource in LBWE, my data source status became red and the Active/Inactive button grayed out? how can I make this data source active again?
    Thanks,
    KK

    Hi Kumar,
    The status will become Red and Active/Inactive is disable due to Extract structure activated but data source is not maintained. This happens once you change the extract structure to Include additional fields. Please do the below step:
    in LBWE, Click on Data source (Technical name of your data source beside maintainance) and you will get maintainance screen, change if you want some thing or else leave as it is and save, Now  the status for data source in LBWE will become yellow and activate/deactivate will enable.
    Regards,
    Kams

  • Unable to rotate raw images in bridge, rotate buttons grayed out?

    Unable to rotate raw images in bridge, rotate buttons grayed out? 
    Bridge 5.0.2.4. 

    There is an ignore EXIF setting Preferences. I can't remember if that is Bridge or Photoshop, but IIRC it is for DNG files.
    Right.  Check Photosho > Preferences > File handling and make sure 'Ignore EXIF tag, is not checked.  I think that might do it, so long as it refers to sidecare files, because only RAW files would have one.

  • "Open iTunes when this iPhone is attached" is grayed out

    Hey gang-
    On my iPhone running OS 3.1.2 and iTunes 9.0, "Open iTunes when this iPod is attached" is grayed out. Any reason this would be?
    Thanks!
    Dave

    Edit > preferences > Devices > Disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods, check in that box?
    That should make the option you want available and then you can disable the auto-syncing again if you want.

  • Running a presentation via VGA out with Firefox/Safari open. When I hit 'esc' to come out of slideshow, monitor stated resolution too low. Now Safari and Firefox browsers are still open, but I can't see the browser window on either. Ideas?

    If you use Lion, go to Applications/ Mission Control and, if you have more Desktops, as attached, it means you have more, and you must select the one you need for a certain app. If default settings has not changed, this is Control with left / right arrow
    If in Snow Leopard and earlier, you have these settings in System Preferences only. In Lion, you also have some settings in Sys Prefs.
