How do you unlock a color?

Hi, In Ilustrator, I am trying to take a tomato and blob brush over it but it seems somewhere along the line I have accidently touched a button ( or something?) and now I can't do any project that involves changing color. I am stuck with black and can't get any other color. If I push the toggle between none and another color I can get that color, eg. green but then I am stuck on green. Can some one let this newbee in on what is going on please, I would hate to get frustrated at the beginning of learing Illustrator. Thank You.  Jerri255

Wait a second you cant change a color and you can't do anything to it withthe blob brush and I assume you cannot use the eraser tool as well.
Are these raster placed images by any chance?
You will not be able to edit them in Illustrator if this is the case. You will have to use an image editing program like Photoshop ot convert them to a vector by either using the Live Trace feature or by tracing it withe the en tool.
Now if this is not the correct scenario you will have to move and or trash your settings folder.

  • How do you change the color of events on ICal.

    How do you changed the color of events on ICal? I was able to do this when I utilized ICal on the Snow Leopard system but can no longer do this with Lion.
    I know that I can select the Calanders list, but when I create a new "Calander" it doesn't allow me to choose a color and it doesn't show up in my list when working within an event.
    Thanks!

    Phoebe,
    Right-click on the new calendar and select "Get Info."
    Make sure that the ✓ mark is selected.
    Then choose the color from this pane:

    Unfortunately... Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
    See Here  >  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    However... Once you have Recovered your Device...
    Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most recent Backup...

  • How do you unlock a pages document?  nothing I see on the forums duplicates my situation.

    how do you unlock a document in pages that doesn't say "locked" at the top of the page??? 

    Thanks for answering me!  You might not be reading my question correctly because I think I am confused.  So now I have a couple questions.  I have never used the the Document Inspector to lock a file so that is not the issue.  It has not asked for a password either. 
    When you said a document will be locked after a period of time I have experienced that but usually it drops a box down asking if you want to unlock it.  When you said, "as determined by my System Preferences" I dont' see anything in system preferences about documents.....what am I missing here??  I am using Lion 10.7.4.  So I would like to know the answer to that. I am wondering if you meant it can be set to lock or not lock???
    That said.....in the meantime I had done a duplicate and then made it a template just to see if I could accomplish what I was trying to do and that didn't work either.  SOooooooo let me ask you this.....what I did was take a bunch of clip art off the internet and put it all on one document page in Pages.  I named it "tropical clip art."  When I open that document I can not drag and drop any of the clip art anywhere.  Not to my desktop, not to another document etc.  That is what made me think it was locked.  The document name is at the top and it has "edit" greyed out next to the name.  What the heck am I doing wrong?  I am fairly new to Pages altho been an Apple user for awhile.  I have always fuddled my way through using Pages.  If I can not put the clip art on a document to save it all in one place, what is my other option?  I was trying to avoid going back onto the internet repeatedly to get clip art I want to use over and over.  It is free clip art.  If I go to the internet I can drag and drop it anywhere.
    When I try to drag and drop it off the Pages document it disappears and I have to go to "undo typing" under edit to get it back.  Am I making any sense??
    And this is my very first time on these forums too so that took me a bit to figure out.
    Thanks so much!!!!!

  • How do you change the color of a MobileMe calendar group?

    How do you change the color of a MobileMe calendar group?

    Are you using MobileMe? If not, the colors do not match unless you implement the rather painful workaround of loading the calendars one at a time, in the order that the iPhone assigns them (red, orange, blue, green, purple).

  • How do you change the color of the appointments that show up in Calendar?

    How do you change the color of the scheduled appointments in calendar? All of mine seem to show up in red when they are actually in blue on my computer.

    Many others are experiencing this problem as well.. I personally have eleven different calender in iCal with assigned colors, all of which are different colors on my iPhone iCal.
    It seems that as of now there is no fix for this bug and that we'll just have to wait for Apple to recognize the issue.

    How do you change the color of the sign and fill text to the color blue in a pdf document

    Is this using the "Fill & Sign" tab of https://cloud.acrobat.com/fillsign (for now text input is only black) or maybe using the Fill & Sign tool in Adobe Reader XI, or another application? 
    Thanks,

  • How do you change the color of the title text?

    The main title text for the tap your currently on shows up centered one line above the tab row. The default is black text, with a gray drop shadow, but that doesn't work with dark background themes/personas. How do I go about changing that text color so that its visible on a dark background. I've tried changing font stylings in general for the browser, and I've tried changing the color values in the about:config for the persona, but none of that works. How do you change the color of the title text?

    That colors option under content doesn't change the color of the title text, but thanks anyways

    Ah, no. They published the only drivers HP gave them. If they didn't publish them, then Mac users would be unable to use HP devices at all, except for those devices supported by 3rd parties such as Gutenprint and the HPIJS Project. HP is solely responsible for the state of their drivers. And it's not just Mac drivers which are bad; a lot of Windows drivers stink, too. HP simply has a problem writing drivers. For the most part they have excellent hardware, but truly terrible software.

    How do you unlock an ipod touch if you forgot the password?

    You can't. Type in the wrong password until, it says "Connect to iTunes". Then connect it to iTunes. You will wait 1 minute, five minutes, 15 minutes, then 60 minutes, then you can connect it to iTunes.

    Then restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom
