'Include CD Text' option is greyed out

When I try to burn a playlist onto a blank CD, the option to include CD text is "greyed out". I noticed this option was disabled after I installed a new internal hard drive earlier this month (Seagate Scorpio Blue Serial ATA). I have the current version of iTunes (10.4.1) and I'm currently running OS X 10.6.8.

Strange, that option is working fine here. Has it worked before on the same computer? Have you installed new drivers, or do you need to? The troubleshooting steps here might help. iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install

"include cd text" is still greyed out:-(

deleted old itunes (because s/w update wouldn't update it) d/l'd & installed 10.6.3 on my minimac(dcore duo, 10.6.8, uj-85js) but i stiil can't burn audio cds w/text
i can burn w/text on my macbook with a uj-8a8...is there some majick incantation that will fix this? or is this feature only available in osx 10.7 (even tho itunes is v10.6.3 on both)-:

i should also mention that i share my itunes library via nfs on both machines...where is the itunes prefs.plist stored? it's not in ~/Library/Application\ Support
if this is a lion yes/tiger no issue i'm jumping to linux...

Bookmark option is greyed-out, how can I create a bookmark from text?

In the Link Inspector the Add bookmark option is greyed-out. I want to make a heading on page 4 a bookmark so that readers can jump to that page from the beginning.

Confirm your process against the topic '- Hyperlink two words/text -' in iBA Tips and Tricks 01.
If a jump to page 4 is that important, I'd consider moving the content around so the user doesn't have to travel to see it - otherwise, just link to the first word on page 4 if using the title/heading gives you trouble.

All iWeb options are greyed-out, and can't make a new sites or pages.

Hello,
I am having a very annoying problem with iWeb. Every option is greyed-out! I can't make a new page or site, and it quits as soon as I close the iWeb window. It is version 1.1.2 I have tried installing useless updates for iWeb that did nothing, and I've tried to open iWeb from iPhoto by clicking the iWeb button, which also did nothing. I'm just about to give up on it.
Can anybody please point me in the right direction or have a fix for this? All help will be appreciated!

Hi ineedagoodalias,
The answer to your problem isn't necessarily the simplest, but I'm 99% sure that it will work for you.
You need to delete and reinstall iWeb. Not hard to do; you just need your installation DVD's that came with your machine.
Drag the iWeb.app from your Applications folder to the trash. Spotlight for other elements of iWeb, and trash those as well. Empty the trash and restart your machine.
On your recovery disks, as you move through the prompts, look for "Install bundled software". Customize the install to include only iWeb. After reinstalling iWeb you will be back to 1.0.1.
Update the app to 1.1.1 directly from this link:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/iweb111.html
This will get you going, and you can update to 1.1.2 when you are sure everything is working properly. For other FAQ on iWeb, please see this link:

Be sure to let us know how it goes.

When I load Messages, the preferences option is greyed out

I've synced Messages with my iPhone and my iPad but haven't been able to do so with my iMac. When I activate Text Message Forwarding for my iMac, it won't send a confirmation code to my computer. Also, when I go into Message on my iMac the Preferences option is greyed out.
Suggestions?

Hi,
In iChat and Messages up to version 8 in Mavericks this was solved by going to ~/Library/Preferences and finding the com.apple.ichat.plist and Dragging it to the Trash and restarting the app.
Whilst Yosemite still lists Messages as version 8 it is significantly different.
It seems here the Font AppleGothic.ttf needs to be active (and Validate).
It may be you need to do both as someone in the Yosemite Community did the deletion first then validated the Font before restarting and then getting their window to look "right".

Guest options all greyed out...apart from delete

Just started a new role where virtualisation is Hyper V managed with SCVMM console. I am completely new to SCVMM and mostly new to Hyper V so could do with a some help with, what might be one issue or could be two separate issues
I've trawled the net but cannot find anything helpful so hopefully someone will have similar experience and can shed some light
ISSUE !: Two servers, a MS Failover Cluster hosting 2 instances of SQL, are reporting an 'Unsupported Cluster Configuration'. The error info is error(13921) suggesting an issue with NICs. I have checked all elements both back end and front
end and all checks out OK. Virtual switches on the HYPERV cluster are fine. Just to make things more interesting, although one of the nodes is hosting both SQL instances, it hasn't been installed on the other node but I don't want to remediate
this until I am comfortable with the next part of the problem (see ISSUE 2)
ISSUE 2: On the same two servers mentioned above, all options are greyed out, including Connect via RDP & Console, (although I can RDP to them both using MSTSC) and all power options, except delete. (if this were ESX based
I'd say that the VM Tools weren't running)
Could all this stem from the incomplete SQL instance installation? Is SCVMM smart enough to recognise that there is an issue with the failover cluster config (I don't think so personally) and report it as an 'Unsupported Cluster Configuration' AND could
this be causing the loss of controls.

Hi Sir,
Could you please tell us the VMM and the hyper-v version ?
Can the cluster work without SCVMM ?
For cluster issue , cluster validation report should be a good place to start cluster troubleshooting :
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/clustering/archive/2012/05/07/10301709.aspx
As for ISSUE 2 , my suggestion is remove the cluster from VMM then check if the VMM agent and related stuff were really removed , after that please solve cluster configuration problems if it exists in cluster validation report then add cluster
again into SCVMM.
Best Regards,
Elton Ji

SMS option is greyed out.

I cannot seem to send sms from my iChat. In my File menu, SMS option is greyed out. Does anybody else have this problem. I also tried adding a to my phone number contacts. that did not solve my problems.

Hi
To Explain this Picture.
It is the Pop when you go to the iChat > File Menu SMS (When it is not Greyed Out)
To get that item to be active you have to have the Computer set as if it is in the United States
This is set in System Preferences > International in versions Snow Leopard or Earlier.
It is called text and Something in Lion on the top row of panes.
The Format Tab is the one that has to show the United States.
The Phone Number has to be in the United States as this is the only place AIM Offer the service.
What they don't make quite so clear is that the Phone Service also has to be linked to the AIM SMS Forwarding service.

Enrolled Macs' "Sleep" option is greyed out

Hello,
As soon as a Mac is enrolled into our OS X Server it becomes unable to "Sleep." The Sleep option under the Apple menu is greyed out and even closing the lid will not put the Mac to sleep. This has been a big issue because it is killing our machines' battery life.
There are no management settings enabled for any of the Macs, under Profile Manager and they are not in any device groups. There are also no management settings enable for the users of the machines nor are the users in any groups. As soon as they are enrolled, the Sleep option is greyed out and nothing will allow them to sleep.
This was happening with the Server version right before Version 4. We updated hoping Version 4 would resolve this issue but it did not. All help is greatly appreciated!
OS X Server Version 4 (14S333)
Mac Mini Server purchased in mid 2014
2.6ghz Quad Core i7 Processor
16gb of RAM

It appears Apple needs to fix a problem with the "Login Window" Payload in Profile Manager.
To enable sleep on a mac until the settings are pushed out again use terminal and enter the following:
sudo pmset -a disablesleep 0
You will also need to do this if you remove the "Login Window" Payload from the settings you push out, since the mac won't revert to the working settings.
I notified Apple about this thread.
PS I was able to manually change the config profile (downloaded from Profile Manager) with text editor to get it working the way I wanted, but I only have one client computer. If you do this, there were 2 entries. I found them by searching the config for "sleep". Change the entries from true to false. You can then install the modified settings profile.

IMovie: My options are greyed out in content library. Help!

Since updating to Yosemite and CS6 2 of my print options are greyed out on my epson R2880 print pane?

My colour and colour settings options are 'greyed out' on my Epson printer pane since updating to Yosemite and CS6,this happened before after running a software update on the printer driver! The driver version at that time was 6.62 and now it has updated to version 9.00....could this be the problem??

That's strange ... did you try restarting before printer install? You also may need to delete the printer itself (System Preferences > Printers & Scanners) and add it again , in order to access the proper drivers (?)
Can you show screen shot(s) of your incomplete print dialog?

When I select the lab color mode, many options are greyed out?

Can anyone help me . When I select Lab color, many options are grey out. The following are greyed out: exposure,vibrance, black and white, channel mixer, and selective color. It worked perfectly the first time I used it but will not work now. Do I need to reset something. I have tried everything I can think of. I use a PC and PS 5.
Thanks for the help.

I'm working on the Mac versions of CC and CC 2014. If I select Lab, those very same options are grayed out.

Newbie: In printing dialog, "Scale to" size options are greyed out

I am in the initial stages of figuring out how to use Aperture (v1.5). I am currently trying to make a 5x7 print of a photo.
In the print dialog, "Scale to" 4x6, 5x7, 8x10 size options are greyed out (only "fit image" and "fill entire page" are available).
I've tried searching through the forums, but to no avail...
Thanks!

CS6 Encore launches but all options are greyed out

The headline says it all. I'm using CS6 on a MacBook Pro, OS 10.7. Previously Encore has worked well. After the most recent update, Encore will launch but all of the options are greyed out. I can't start a new project, etc. When I try to open a previous Encore project, I receive an error message that some needed software is missing. Any ideas to help me solve the problem? With many thanks.

I suspect that same sort of issues that one gets when the activation is messed up. I think the resolution is deactivate and reactivate.
Are you missing any presets in Premiere? I would look at some of the issues in the Premiere forum to further diagnose the problem and look for the recommended fix.
