Icloud is grayed out shows an old AOL e-mail

My icloud is grayed out and it shows my old aol email. I went to the restriction setting it asking for a passcode and enter the correct code and now it says it is failed attempt.
HELP!

Keep trying to remember the passcode. If you can't remember it, the only way to remove it is to restore the phone as new without using your backup and start over (or restore a backup that was made prior to setting the restrictions passcode). The only other option would be try to extract the passcode from a backup on your computer (if you have one) using 3rd party software as explained here: http://www.simonblog.com/2011/03/16/how-to-recover-forgotten-iphone-restrictions -passcode/.

Icloud preferences grayed out after sign-in

Having upgraded to Yosemite, I am able to sign into icloud via icloud preferences, but all my existing checkbox selections for icloud is grayed out. I can't edit them. I can't check the icloud drive either.
I have a 2008 iMac.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Al

I'm not using iCloud. Try signing out.

Why are the songs that I uploaded to the iCloud always graying out?

I've uploaded 14,000 songs to the Cloud. Now most are grayed out. Sometimes they show up and sometimes they don't. This happens on my MacBook as well as my iPhone 6. I'm signed in so that isn't the issue.
Also, why did the iCloud delete a whole bunch of my uploads? These were CDs like Tool and a few collector's songs that aren't in general release?

How did you do this?

ICloud items grayed out on MBP

Hi all-
Last night I had to change my password for iCloud as it was entered incorrectly too many times (think I was typing it wrong). I've successfully done that and able to login both online as well as iTunes store, etc.
However, today when I booted my MBP, I was first greeted with a bunch of keychain warnings. I was able to cancel out of all of those then enter the new iCloud password and those warnings are no longer popping up at boot.
My problem now is that, when I got to both "iCloud" and "Internet Accounts" in system preferences, everything is grayed out (the items I should be able to check). At the top of both of those screens there's a "enter password" button, which I hit. I then enter my new password. It accepts it, in both, yet the screen it takes me to...with Photos, Mail, Contacts, Calendars..." etc are all still grayed. I cannot adjust, tick any of the radio buttons, etc. Also, under my user icon on the left both "Account Details" and "Set Up Family" are also grayed, unavailable to click.
Can anyone help? There is an option to "sign out" which I'm tempted to do and try signing back in, but then, when looking into that option I've read that items in iCloud stored on the mac will be removed. I don't want to risk losing data from this mac. Or will it all just be brought back into the MBP from iCloud once I log back in? OS X Yosemite: If you sign out of iCloud
Is there anything else I should be doing? Or is the play here to Sign Out and sign back in? Thanks.

Now I have another issue, potentially. When trying to sign out, I use my Apple ID to log into my computer. So now, before I can log out, it's telling me that I'll need to set up a new password and that I won't be able to use my Apple ID password to sign into this computer. This is quite annoying. If I do this step, re-log back into iCloud, will I then be able to revert back, setting my MBP login screen to my iCloud password? That's how I wanted it...it was seamless, allowing the same login online as I use when logging into this machine.

Music in iCloud is grayed out

I successfully logged into my music on iCloud from my work windows computer. THe second time I went to listen, all the tunes are grayed out. How to get them a second time?

I uncheched iTunes Match, then re-checked it, which solved the problem, at least for a session.

Some mail accounts grayed out, connections ok, but cannot access mail

2 of my 4 e-mail accounts, that I access via Mac Mail suddenly became 'grayed out' between the morning, when I was checking e-mail on my laptop at home, and the mid-afternoon,when I tried to check mail again while the laptop was on
the campus network.
Running snow leopard 10.6.1, Mail Version 4.1 (1076); have had File
Vault ON the past 10 days due to travel but normally it has been off.
Affected accounts were a personal commercial mail service (POP) and my main work account (Exchange IMAP) but my g-mail (POP) and alternate work account (IMAP but not exchange)were not affected. Connection Doctor says connection and login to
server on both accounts succeeded.
Both grayed-out accounts appear fully functional by alternate access
(web mail versions (both), iPhone (both), & Microsoft Outlook on
Windows for the Exchange IMAP account). Both accounts are enabled. I
have not, to the best of my knowledge, changed the account settings for
either account in Mail preferences or on the servers via alternate
access.
The same problem persists now on my home network again (cable modem/airport wireless, all working smoothly for non-mail related activities).
Running snow leopard 10.6.1, Mail Version 4.1 (1076); have had File
Vault ON the past 10 days due to travel but normally it has been off.

I had un-enabled and re-enabled, but not checked 'take online/take offline'. One of them did offer 'take online', so that may have been its problem.
For the other one, after un-enabling the other 3 accounts, it spontaneously started downloading the waiting mail, so was back online.
I thought it might be something ridiculously simple like this that I'd accidentally messed with....not that I was even aware of this option until now. Still don't know how I managed to take them offline, without meaning to, but now that I know about this, can check here first if it happens again. thanks!

Can't figure this one out - Buddies all grayed out - show offline.

Just helped setup a new Mac convert and I am at a loss to get his iChat to connect. His new broadband connection is Cox cable using a Scientific Atlanta DPC2100 Series. Web browsing is good and fast. When I carefully set up his Buddy list, and have the iMac firewall off, the Buddies remain greyed out even when we confirm by phone that they are online. They also show him as greyed out on their iChat. To simplify, I disconnected my Powerbook with iChat, iSight, etc. all working perfectly from my DSL connection. I then carried and connected to the DPC2100 directly with Ethernet and confirmed web browsing. But, my iChat did the same thing, showing Buddies greyed out and offline and they could no longer see my presence online either.
The only variable seems to be the switch from DSL (ok) to Cox Cable with the DPC2100. Then, returning to the DSL all is fine.
I discussed this with Cox ??tech support?? and two different people said it had nothing to do with the cable modem or their connection. It appears that expecting ANY support from COX cable tech is a losing proposition, so I am turning to logical Mac users. Thanks for any ideas to resolve this.
iMac 1.8 G5 and Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4) no router, no firewall, no privacy, etc.

I would look for a cable Modem that is configurable (most you purchase youself will be).
Something like this
Or this
Generally go for something that is not going to handle VoIP as well. (Not SIP Aware)
On the other hand if he has a install CD that came with the device there might be Read Me with the default IP Listed to make Access.
Or try the Scientific Atlanta Website (although I can not get the page to load today (Sun 22nd)
This Forum item suggest the default IP is 192.168.100.1 but also suggests problems due to the ISP this was supplied from.

ICloud grayed out, restrictions won't allow reset?

My son set restrictions (and a password) on my iPhone, causing iCloud to gray out. The answer would be to reset the iPhone to factory settings, but I cannot do so until I can get into iCloud to turn off "find my iPhone." My son is special needs, and cannot tell me what password he set. How can I reset the phone?

See if this helps

if not, it is a hardware failure. Contact Genius bar/AT&T for evaluation and possible replacement.

You need to restore from a backup made before the code was set. If no such backup exists, restore to factory settings.

What is grayed out?
If you mean iCloud is grayed out in settings, go to Settings>General>Restrictions>Accounts (near the bottom) and set this to Allow Changes.

Stream usage button grayed out

In the Compressor manual section "About the H.264 for Blu-ray Disc Encoder Pane" (page 168) it is said:
Stream Usage: Use the Stream Usage pop-up menu to choose how you intend to use the H.264 stream.
Then two options are given: Blu-Ray and AVCHD. The latter intended for burning AVCHD in a standard DVD-burner.
The latter is what I want to do. However, in the pane (did a Save-as on the original setup) this pop-up is grayed out, showing "Blu-ray" apparently shuttting me out from selecting AVCHD.
Can someone tell me why, and how to effectuate a change to AVCHD burning?

What is displayed in stream usage depends on what you select in Job Actions for Output Device. If you select Hard Drive or a Blu Ray Burner, you will see Blu Ray in Steam Usage. If you select a red laser optical drive, you will see AVCHD.
Here, I have AVCHD displayed because I selected my internal DVD burner as Output Device.
