Inserting Text Hyperlink..of any kind....is greyed out.

Anyone care to offer up what I'm doing wrong? I have an image selected, I go to insert...text hyperlink....and then all options are greyed out. I want to select web page. What is the fix?

Nevermind...I found the user guide. It's amazing what you can find if you only look. = )

Hi,
Acrobat xi - RE: Add sound icon- skin displayed is a 'blank white box' until it is clicked to activate it- can you lock skin to display before its activated so that in a print run the skin shows up (ie the controls-or any kind of greyed out rectangle, like video controls before 1st activation) and not the blank white box- if no, I guess I have to activate all sound icons before doing a print run?thanks)).

Many of your points are totally legitimate.
This one, however, is not:
…To put it another way, the design of the site seems to be geared much more towards its regular users than those the site is supposedly trying to "help"…
The design and management of the forums for more than five years have driven literally dozens of the most valuable contributors and "regulars" away from the forums—permanently.
The only conclusion a prudent, reasonable person can draw from this state of affairs is that Adobe consciously and deliberately want to kill these forums by attrition—without a the PR hit they would otherwise take if they suddenly just shut them down.

HP 4500 Envy won't Queue Text Documents of Any Kind (but prints test pages and pictures)

I have a brand new HP 4500 Envy that was working fine for a few weeks and now won't print text documents of any kind - .txt, .doc, .pdf, you name it. I can print pictures and test pages but that's it. I've already tried the HP Print Doctor, updating the drivers and the like, but none of these solutions work. I need to get this up and running quickly - any suggestions? --- Thanks

I have the same problem.
I think that it should be related with Windows 7 SP1.
I installed on 2 different laptops, one with Windows 7 and one with Windows 8 and there I can print all kind of type documents.
But on my HP 1120 can I not print any document, only jpeg and scan works.
And here I have Windows 7 SP.

How can I save an email as plain text when the save as is greyed out?

How can I save an email message as a plain text document if the saved as command is greyed out? I am using OSX Mountain Lion. Macbook Pro thanks.

OK, but is it happening to you with all messages or just some messages? If just some, can you characterize which ones? (Maybe messages with only one "alternative*" form, or with the "wrong" alternative for displayed, or messages containng images but no text?)
* By "alternative" form, I mean in the sense of Mail > View > Message > Previous Alternative or Next Alternative or Plain Text Alternaive or Best Alternative.)
Similarly, can you characterize the circumstances under which you cannot save an attachment?

Library doesn't show any previews. Greyed out.

I'm working on a G4 with all my shots on an extension hard drive. Importing works OK and I'm able to save shots in folders and collections but my Library is greyed out even though its telling I've got 300+ shots in the database. This making accessing shots more difficult and I know it was OK when I first started to use it.
Can anyone help?

I had a similar experience following converting my files to dng the only difference being that only one file was grayed out. I clicked on this file and then from the menu chose export xmp data to file which solved the problem. It might be worth you having a go but in your case selectng all the files. Quite why this happens I've no idea, and it's a pain in the butt :-(

Brand New Iphone 5c can't send or receive text messages of any kind!? I've tried everything, why does no one have a solution for this? There's no way we're keeping a phone that can't even perform one of it's most basic functions. Help!

Got the new Iphone 5c from Verizon today and was really happy with the phone until we realized it is unable to send or recieve text messages AT ALL. We've tried everything, searched the internet for hours, I've tried live chatting with Verizon and Apple ALL DAY and somehow keep getting "disconnected" even though my internet is working perfectly. The phone is pretty much useless if it's unable to perform one of it's main functions and it's really dissapointing to add a line, get the phone, only to discover a major problem with seemingly no solution whatsoever. Is there any fix for this? Because a phone that is incapable of sending or receiving a simple SMS message is pretty much useless. It's too bad too because I really love the phone if not for that. Does anyone have a legitimate way to solve this problem? We've done everything, network resets, turning imessaging on and off, factory reset, etc. etc. etc. and nothing works. Please help.

Hello Idkallday!
I know your device sends and receives text messages! Let's get to work on this! Did you port your service from another carrier, or is this a new number? Is your previous device still powered on?
I also want to ask if you are able to use iMessaging, and if you see any error message when sending?
Please test it by sending a message to your own mobile number, and keep us posted!

Add hyperlink greyed out

Couldn't add a hyperlink to text box (greyed out) so I moved it to regular text and the add hyperlink is still greyed out.
Finally I closed iBA and reopened it. No change.
I've seen similar posts about links to graphics, and tried selecting the entire text box, but link option stays greyed out.
Thanks

My own experiments suggest that the central feature affecting the ability to add a bookmark is the outline of the text box that surrounds the text you are trying to make into a bookmark. If it is a ‘dotted text box’ then you will be successful; if it is continuous, you will not.
These ‘dotted text boxes’ appear in any of the ‘add pages’ which already has a text box in it (eg 2 column or 3 column etc). What happens depends on whether you are selecting from the ‘section’ or ‘pages’ folder. Considering the ‘pages’ first.
When added, these pages may appear blank because they don’t contain text until it flows on from the previous page (it will usually link its text boxes with the previous page).
Any text that you add inside the dotted text box, or any that flows over from earlier ones, or any that is there by default can be selected and made into a bookmark: in other words the + in the bookmark inspector will not be grayed out.
However, if you do anything that breaks the link with the previous ‘dotted text box’ (eg by selecting the frame and dragging the blue link end away from the box), then the text box becomes a ‘continuous line’ box and you can no longer create bookmarks within it. In fact any existing ones now connect to the the previously linked ‘dotted’ text boxes.
It is also worth noting that all the text that was created in the now ‘continuous line’ text box may disappear—but if you insert a new ‘text box’ page, the text will appear again (as though it was homeless up to that point because it didn't have a linked text box to display in).
If, say, you have three linked text pages, even if you delete the middle one the links will re-establish themselves between the first and last page and all bookmarks will be maintained.
Now, if you add a page from the ‘section’ folder, (eg copyright, forward, etc) you may well find that there are 2 text boxes. Select each one in turn. If it has a continuous line you can’t add a bookmark to text inside it. If it is has the dotted lines, you can.
Select the dotted line text box (by clicking on a handle) and you will find that a ‘blue link line’ does not enter it on the left (unlike ‘2 column’ pages etc) or leave it on the right. This makes things easier because it avoids the problems associated with the pages from the ‘page section’. You can create bookmarks for any words that you type into this text box.
I hope I have got it right! It is all very confusing and still means that the bookmark feature is not as great as it could be: let’s hope that Apple puts things right with the next update.

Importing Audiobooks from CD - Media Kind Greyed Out

I am importing audiobooks from CD and all the relevant Options for audiobooks are greyed out.
"Media Kind" is greyed out
"Remember position" is greyed out
"Skip when shuffling" is greyed out
I can make the changes after I've imported them, but I really want to do it before I import as it simply makes it easier on me (which is to say, it saves me time, and time is precious).
Any idea why these would be greyed out for importing audio CDs?
At least I can still join tracks.
Hmmm ... I suppose I should see if it's also greyed out when I import a music CD, but I haven't bought a music CD is years and have already imported all the one I do own.

Any idea why these would be greyed out for importing audio CDs?
Because this info is not in the tags for the audio CD. They are part of the file after you import it.
This info is part of the *CD Info.cidb* file., which is where iTunes stores the CD info. The CD info is not stored in iTunes.
See this -> How iTunes remembers audio CDs
I suppose I should see if it's also greyed out when I import a music CD
Yes it is.

Audio and Video call greyed out

Hi. I m using ichat (lion OS) in my mac mini. My problem is cant video call or even call anyone, but people can video call me. When other's call me, both video and audio works fine. But in my ichat all i see is greyed out audio or video call. Please help..

HI,
If your Video Menu says Video Chat Enabled and your View Menu says the Show Video Status is On and the Bandwidth is set to at least 500kbps then I cannot see why you cannot initiate Chats.
You should either be able to click a green video icon next to a Buddy or highlight them and then use the icons at the bottom of the list (Or right-click a Buddy and you the pop up menu or highlight and use the Buddies Menu)
(i.e. there are lots of ways to start a chat)
If the Buddy is greyed Out but still showing a Video icon (Also greyed out) then that Buddy has faulty login.
Dark text Buddies are ON line but greyed out Video icons are then Busy

Tiger - All Sahring Options/Services disabled, greyed out

Hello from Portugal!
I noticed that on System Preferences I had all my Sharing services disabled and cannot select any of them (greyed out). Also, the Firewall Tab was disabled to (greyed out), and I couldn't select it either. I noticed that as the first option (also greyed out) I had a new service called "M82" ( ? ) that I had never seen before.
1- So I did a Archive and Install from Tiger 10.4.0 original DVD to try to find out what update cause this strange behavior.
2- After that I updated from 10.4.0 to 10.4.11 (Combo update) with Software Update.
3- After that I checked the Sharing services and all was well and normal. I could select/activate all the Sharing Option and the Firewall Tab was back to normal again.
4- I returned to Software Update and Made the folowing updates/instalations:
. Java 1.3.1 and 1.4.2 Release 2 (2.0)
. QuickTime (7.6)
. Migration and DVD/CD Sharing (1.1)
. Safari 3.2.1
5- After the restart I checked again and all my Sharing services and Firewall Tab were once again disabled. Also, the mysterious new service "M82" (also disabled) was back again.
So the cause of this problem is one (or more) of the updates I made in step 4 (maybe not Safari 3.2.1).
What can I do to resolve this issue without having to install Tiger 10.4.0 again?
Thank you for your help!

Thanks for your help BDAqua,
I modified my system language from Portuguese (Portugal) to english an all got back to normal.
altought it's a solution to resolve this specific problem, it's forces me t use english instead of my mother language. Not wise. I'm going to contact Apple to fix this.
Thanks again!

Solution for greyed out wi fi have done reset settings

any ideas for greyed out wifi have done the settings reset as suggested on apple site

Try doing a restore in iTunes http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414. Make sure you make a backup of your device first http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 then restore and setup your phone as new.
If that doesn't work you have a hardware failure and you should contact Apple Care for support or go to an Apple Retail Store.

Is it distance from my router than causes a greying out of web sites

the router that gives wirelessness to my desktops is about 50 feet and in another room
from my bedroom. the web page listings of any search are greyed out and are not
workable.
Is there a distance issue here?
cant be cos i also use cellular data which shows up on the upper left with 4 bars
and still the pages are locked, cant be clicked on
any ideas whats going on
the ipad2 32 GB with 3G

Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Why are my matched songs greyed out and unavailable on my Mac?

OK, I've spent weeks matching and uploading songs to iTunes Match. All is now sorted, and the message in the Match window in iTunes says that all my songs are ready. Yet nearly every time I open iTunes all the Matched and Purchased songs that exist only in the cloud, and that I have not downloaded, are greyed out and I cannot play them.
Yet —
1. I can stream/download them them without a problem on my iPad and my iPhone, over the same internet connection and the same Wi-Fi network.
2. When I right-click on any of the greyed out songs in iTunes and select 'Show In iTunes Store' I'm taken to the song in the store, from where it plays fine.
So what is going on? Neither of the two above actions would work if I did not have an internet connection to iTunes in the cloud, so why won't the songs play in iTunes?

can somebody find an answer i deleted my songs from my ipod and they are all greyed out and i cant do anything.

Include updated website lists from Microsoft - Not greyed out

Hi,
As per description of the Group Policy setting "Include updated website lists from Microsoft" on GPMC console, by disabling this setting, the Microsft-provided lists are not used and the user will not be able to activate the feature.
If you disable the setting under "Policies\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Compatibility View\Include updated Web site lists from Microsoft" the checkbox is detached but it is not greyed out.
I have tried to set the policy under Computer Settings, User setting and also making a Registry edition under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\BrowserEmulation by setting "MSCompatibilityMode" to "1" but the behaviour
is still not the desired.
Does anybody know if there is any way to grey out this setting?

Hi,
This policy controls the website compatibility lists that Microsoft provides. The updated website lists are available on Windows Update.
If you enable this policy setting, the Microsoft-provided website lists are used during browser navigation. If a user visits a site on the compatibility lists, the pages are automatically displayed in Compatibility View.
If you disable this policy setting, the Microsoft-provided website lists are not used. Additionally, the user cannot activate the feature by using the Compatibility View Settings dialog box.
If you do not configure this policy setting, the Microsoft-provided website lists are not active. The user can activate the feature by using the Compatibility View Settings dialog box
my comments:
the check for updates to the MSCVL is done the FIRST time the iexplore.exe process is started...
Try rebooting the computer or closing all open IE processes to see if the changes have taken effect.
Check if you have installed and activated Enterprise Mode which will over-ride any MSCVL settings.
Please provide a link to the website where you are seeing the 'undesired' behavior....
the google Plus web page plugin can change outcomes for x-ua meta determination.
Regards.

Insert an hyperlink in a mail text but the URL is too long (more than 255)

Hi to all,
I was asked to insert an hyperlink in a mail text. I was thinking to use '<A href =" ' command . I'm usin BSC interface but my problem is that the internal table in wich I'm loading the body message is 255 character while the URL i'm trying to include in the e-mail si too long . Any fast solution ?
Thanks
Andrew

You don't need to put the entire anchor tag contents on one line in the table before you append it to the body contents. The reading application (Outlook, etc.) knows the entire tag contents based on the open/close of the tag. I often chunk up my anchor tags like that via text elements so they're easier to read in the code. Though you can't really see it, this is an anchor tag:
begin_table 0.
begin_row.
begin_cell 100.
gs_email_contents-line = text-s03.
append_content.
gs_email_contents-line = text-s04.
append_content.
gs_email_contents-line = text-s05.
append_content.
end_cell.
end_row.
end_table.
