HT5467 My location sevices button is grayed out so I can't turn it on? What should I do?

My location sevices button in grayed out so I can't chage it to "on".   I changed date/time to auto as recommended, and restarted, but still no change. What should I try next?

Check Settings>General>Restrictions>Location Services, make sure Allow Changes is checked and Location Services is turned to On.

  • Should be the bluetoot symbol grayed out when the bluetooth is turned "ON"or it should be highlighted in white like rest of the active symbols are? Please unswer this simple question clearly. Thank you.

    My blutooth symbol on the new i-Pod 2 is grayed out when the option is turned "ON". Shouldn't be highlighted white like the rest of the symbols are?

    when blue tooth is turned off in settings, the symbol does not show at all.  when BT is turned on in settings, but there is no connected device, it will show the symbol gryed out.  When BT is on, and connected to an active device, it will show as bright white.

  • If I open another URL from my homepage, the "go back one page" button is grayed out so I can't get back to my home page.

    This problem only started recently.
    Opening another web page (URL) from my homepage always opens in the same tab and the "go back one page" button is gray and does not work. If I open a series of web pages in the same tab the green "back" button is green. Clicking on the "recent pages" down arrow will allow me to go back, but only to the page after the home page.
    In other words, after browsing, I can get back to the opening page (my home page) only by clicking on the house icon but not by using the "recent pages" function.
    Is there an option that changed after the last update?

    Do you see any tab history if you right click the Back or Forward button?
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • TS1398 the wi-fi on/off option on my new ipad is grayed out.  How do I turn it  back on?

    I was using my ipad and wi-fi is suddenly unavailable.  I have checked and my Kindle and laptop can still use wi-fi.  The wi-fi section of the setting shows the wi-fi is off and  the on/off switch is grayed out so I can't turn it back on.
    I have also turned off my wi-fi router and turned it back on and have turned the ipad off and back on.

  • I am trying to install Iphoto on my new MacBook Air adn the install button is grayed out  Any suggestions

    I am trying to install iphoto 09 on my new MacBook Air and the install button is grayed out.  Both for installation and custom install.  Is there a problem that I am not aware of?

    Check for receipts
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • How can I move photos from pictures to my Iomega external hard drive?  I have copied all photos, however it won't allow me to paste them.  The paste button is grayed out.

    How can I move photos from pictures to my external hard drive? I have copied all photos, however it won't allow me to paste the photos.  The paste button is grayed out.

    Do you want to copy some pictures to the external drive, or do you want to move your whole iPhoto library? The latter will free up hard drive space on your start up disk; the procedure is explained here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2506
    Note this is not the same as a Time Machine backup.
    If on the other hand you want to copy some photos from one drive to another, you can just drag and drop them from one location to another. This is a true copy, the originals will remain intact.

    Hi lisaarnett111,
    If you are having issues turning on Always Allow for cookies in Safari on your iPad, you may want to check to make sure that you don't have Private Browsing enabled, as noted in the following article:
    Turn Private Browsing on or off on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  • Several months ago I kept getting prompted to "update" my iphoto library.  I finally gave in and clicked on the update button and EVER SINCE THEN,  ALL of my photos have been 'grayed out' and I can't see ANY of them unless I click on the photo and open it

    Several months ago,  I kept getting prompted to 'update' my iphoto library.  When I finally clicked on the 'update' button,  it 'greyed out' ALL of my photos.  Now ALL of my photos are grayed out and I can't see ANY of my pictures unless I click on each grayed out photo individually and open them,  ALL of the thumbnails are greyed out.  It is THE WORST!!  I have no idea how to fix this problem and its been MONTHS AND MONTHS of *** pain.  Anyone??  Please help!!!
    Thanks so much!!!

    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database
    and please tell us what version of iPhoto and of the OS you have

  • Connect to MS Office button is Grayed out - for both Office 2010 and Office 2013

    Hi
    I have recently implemented Sharepoint 2013 Standard for a customer.
    I have got everything to work so far except one important thing, from any Ms Word or Ms Excel application save as SharePoint is missing. While having a closer look I noticed that Connect to Office button is grayed out in SharePoint. 
    During the initial setup, I created the site collection using Team Site template under collaboration. All researching is pointing me to user profile setup with my site host under enterprise section in site collection. 
    I have confirmed that the clients are opening sharepoint from 32bit browser and they have sharepoint handler add on enabled in IE. I have also followed the below guide 
    https://mywinsysadm.wordpress.com/2011/07/28/sharepoint-connect-to-office-for-new-document-creation/ 
    However, I cant actually see any user profile feature as the guide suggests, I can only see "create personal site" under manage profile service section. 
    I have searched & searched and I am not finding any solutions to this problem. 
    can someone point me to the right direction please? is it purely because the site collection is not a My site Host?
    All I need is for users with Office 2010 or Office 2013 to be able to save a document directly in sharepoint. 
    Note - Connect is outlook is working fine though.

    Hi jawad,
    As navigating to a SharePoint Library and clicking 'Connect to Office', the link to document library is added to
    http://[mysites]/_layouts/15/MyQuickLinks.aspx. So, you need to make sure you have your personal site.
    After creating your personal site, please visit
    http://[mysites]/_layouts/15/MyQuickLinks.aspx, check whether it can open well.
    More information about creating MySite, you can refer to:
    http://blog.sharedove.com/adisjugo/index.php/2012/07/25/visual-guide-setting-up-my-sites-in-sharepoint-2013/
    Then go to IE Options->Programs->manage add-ons, make sure all add-ons related to SharePoint are enabled.
    Here is an article, it may be useful for you:

  • I'm having trouble transfering bookmarks from Safari to Firefox. File, "Import" button is grayed out. I've gone through your trouble shooting, the database for imports is no longer current.

    I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I have the latest version of Firefox 5.0. I'm over Apple's Safari, and I'd like to transfer my bookmarks into Firefox. I've gone through your help and support section and found an article that could help me. However, when I click File, the "import" button is grayed out. Which prevents me from importing bookmarks into your browser. So I drug the Firefox icon into the recycle bin, and hit empty trash, then re-downloaded the firefox software from your site, and it seemed to remember my old bookmarks from a year ago. The file, "import" button was still grayed out, so I couldn't update my entire new list of bookmarks onto your web browser.

  • For the first time, I downloaded a podcast in the podcast app by clicking on the cloud icon. Now, every single play button for all of my podcast episodes is grayed out. Why can't I play any of my podcasts any more?

    Greetings Heather,
    After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing an error with the Podcasts app. You may want to consider restarting the device first, and then resetting if that does not work. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,
