IOS 7 Erase data tab grayed out

Hi,
I'm trying to turn off the Erase Data function in iOS 7. The feature is grayed out on both my iPhone and iPad. Sometimes my 3 year old attempts to open a locked iPad or iPhone and I don't want my data erased if he has 10 attempts at it whilst I have my back turned.
How do I disable this?
Thanks in advance.
Adrian

I've deleted my company email exchange account and downloaded the Microsoft OWA email App from the App Store to pick up company email/calendar. This only works if your company has set up Microsoft 360
Microsoft also have another App 'Office Mobile' which also accesses company share point drives.
I can now switch off erase contents after 10 attempts and have increased security and used a 12 digit iphone passcode - which should be plenty strong enough. This is because I can with iphone 5S finger sensor which allows quick and easy phone access despite having such a strong passcode.
Using a non finger sensor forces you to use a short passcode for frequent ease of access, and data wipe is more logical

Import Tab grayed out in Aperture 3.1

Hi folks, need some help:
When I try to import a .jpg from SDHC or HDD into an existing project in my library, the import tab will gray out and is no more selectable. It is no more possible to switch to the library or to chose another button in the toolbar. I need to close the application and open again to work with.
Steps to Reproduce:
Import photos from SDHC-Card with integrated Card Reader or from HDD in a already existing Project, add some metadata-settings during import. Repeat the step several times and always import in a existing project and the the import-tab will gray out. So it is no more possible to move over the library.
I have tried:
- Repair permissions
- Aperture 3: Basic Troubleshooting
I am using:
- Mac OS X 10.6.4, current updates
- Aperture 3.1 clean install
- Latest Pro-Kit-Updates
Are there other people having the same GUI-bug like I do? Or is there maybe a solution? I am looking forward to your answers.
Sincerely'
Immo

Hi Folks
@spikeyjonze: A new local user account has no impact on this issue, it is still present. This steps also belongs to the Aperture 3: Basic Troubleshooting
@Adrian Wackernah: I also have the same issues, but this issue ain't so big for me. My current issue with a grayed out import tab seems to be much worse. But thanks a lot for your answer.
@Gary: I also work with shortcut cmd-i to enter or leave the import-window. But I have never tried with <esc>-key to leave to import-window, if the import tab grays out. I will give it a try when I reproduce the bug again.
I also have opened a case at Apple Care Pro Apps Support Europe. I have send them the System Profiler and a screen-recording of the issue. So I need to wait until Apple has done their troubleshooting and analysis.
Thanks for your answers. If you have any questions regarding this issue, do not hesitate to contact me.

Does iOS 8 fix the wifi 'grayed out' bug in iPhone 4S?

Hi.
I have an iPhone 4S which is running iOS 7.1.2 . Apparently, the wifi was working before upgrading to ios 7.1.2 (from ios 6.1.3). The wifi option is 'Grayed out" in the Settings app and my Mac address is seen as 'N/A' . There are so many 'fixes' for it two of which are temporary (freezer fix and blow dryer fix) It's a really big inconvenience to not have a wifi connection especially when downloading some big files. For those who have used iOS 8 on their iphone 4S (developers et al) does the new and improved iOS version fix this bug? It's nerve racking because I dont know how to save SHSH blobs meaning I cant downgrade from iOS 7.1.2 to iOS 6.1.3 just to get my wifi working. My best bet right now is that iOS 8 will have a fix for this problem. Buying another iPhone is not an option for me right now as my cash is tied up in some projects. Please help.

Ok guys,
I don't know if these helps but I'm going to describe what happened to me with these, first I must say I have an iphone 4S which when bought, the wifi was working fine. The Wifi grayed issue started happening right after I updated IOS version 7.1.1 to 7.1.2. At first I noticed the phone was becoming slow as **** and that my phone won't connect to any Wifis, so I switched my wifi off and my phone became fast again. If I happened to turn the wifi on again my iphone would just become slow again.
I went an try to look up the issue solution on internet forums and apple support page but noone seems to have definitive solution. Now I read the hairdryer and freezer method, but I don't trust it since, as apple points out, might lead to hardware damage but it kinda make sense to me that something might be wrong with the wifi chip. I read in another forum that if I just erase or restore (I can't quite remember right now the right name) the network configuration it might solve the problem, but it seems it doesn't work either.
I ran out of options and just waited for IOS 8 to come out and correct the problem, but it didn't. So I came to the conclusion that this is in no way, a hardware problem unless update 7.1.2 just damage hundreds or perhaps thousands of iphone 4S, which I think is rubbish. This is without a question a software issue, might be some software incompatibility with the iphone 4s wifi chip.
So to summarize all of these, what happened to me was:
1) iphone 4S is version 7.1.1 - WiFi works OK
2) Iphone 4S updates to version 7.1.2 - Wifi no longer works
3) Iphone 4S updates to version 8.0 - Wifi still doesn't work
I tried the following to solve the issue:
1) Reboot the device - Fail
2) Restore Network configuration - Fail (grayes out the wifi)
3) Update to IOS 8.0 - Fail
4) Turn on Airplane mode and after 20 seconds off - (ungrayes the wifi but still cannot connect to any wifi)
What I am currently experiencing with IOS 8.0 (it happened also with 7.1.2)
1) Trying to open "Settings" if wifi is on - it is slow 70% of the time
2) Trying to open "Settings" if wifi is off - Opens up normally
3) Trying to open "Settings>Wifi" if wifi is on - opens awfully slow and no wifi is listed
4) Trying to open "Settings>Wifi" if wifi is off - opens up normally
I hope these helps you apple guys, please fix this issue as my iphone is spending my data plan since I cannot longer use WiFi.

What is the Compatibility Tab grayed out for applications on some network shares, but not others?

I have a network share with an executable file located in it. If I browse to the share by UNC path from a Windows 7 pro workstation and go to the compatibility tab of the .exe, the options are grayed out.
I have another network share with an executable file located on it. This share and workstation are at a different location, unrelated to the first example. If I browse to the share by UNC path from a Windows 7 pro Workstation and go to the compatibility
tab of the .exe file, the options are not grayed out, and I can check or uncheck what ever I need to.
Both shares are located on a Server 2008 R2 system w/sp1. Both workstations are joined to the same domain as the server they are connecting to the UNC path on. Both shares have given the user connecting full access on the smb sharing and ntfs sharing.
Someone please tell me how to make the compatibility tab not grayed out. Here is a screen shot of the comapatibility tab of the .exe file from both shares:

Hi,
You can use
Troubleshoot compatibility to set the application to Compatibility Mode.
You can right-click the application’s shortcut and click Troubleshoot compatibility.
Please refer to the similar thread and the third-party article below:

Thanks, but I read that link before I posted this. Even by running the compatibility wizard, you still can't edit the compatibility settings on Windows 7.

Properties tab "grayed out" in Acrobat 9 Pro

Hello-
I built a form using Live Cycle in 9 Pro for Windows. I want to have the form open as a "two up", so I assumed I should change this in the Properties menu. When I go to the Initial View tab, it is grayed out, and won't let me change anything. How do I get this tab to allow me to change it? Help!
Mike

Form created with LiveCycle Designer are XML forms in a PDF wrapper and many of the usual PDF properties are not available. This is like embedded rich media in a PDF. If you want to research this, Adobe and ISO have the PDF Reference manual available as a free download.

Edit Live Page View in New Tab Grayed Out

I've been looking forward to use using Dreamweaver CS5 to edit dynamic sites. One of the things I thought would really save time was being able to navigate to a dynamic page in live view and then edit it, instead of using File/Open, but when I browse to a page, the Edit the Live View Page in a New Tab is Grayed Out. Any help?

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you needed to check out the document again when open a document which was checked out by yourself and received the error that the document was locked by yourself.
I tested the same scenario per your post, and I got the same results as you got.
I recommend to use the following method to call DispEX (utilizing open document add-on) which is directed to document relative URL instead of using the direct link:
<a onclick="return DispEx(this,event,'TRUE','FALSE','FALSE','SharePoint.OpenDocuments.3','1','SharePoint.OpenDocuments','','','','1','0','0','0x7fffffffffffffff')"
href="/site name/library name/file name.xlsx">Edit Document</a>
Best regards.
Thanks

Why is the lyrics tab grayed out?

I have a Taylor Swift song I was going to add some lyrics to, but the tab is grayed out. Anyone know why? This song was imported from a CD.
Thanks

Yes, I tried it again by seeing the song in the main library as opposed to seeing it in a playlist. Again, the lyrics tab was grayed out. I was able to see the tab, however, when I did a "get info" for one of her music videos I have.

Unable to sync Applications-tab grayed out

I downloaded a number of Apps from the App Store early this afternoon using iTunes and couldn't get them to sync with my new 3G iPhone. All the choices on the "Applications" tab are grayed out (although I can see the list of apps I downloaded in the window. They're just grayed out and unchecked). I restarted my iPhone and restored from backup and then they loaded. However, just downloaded 10-12 more Apps and the exact same thing is happening. Can anyone help me out? I don't want to have to reset/restart every time I want to load an app. Thanks...

This thread had the answer that worked for me:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1599782
I had enabled restrictions on an iPhone the kids use. I MAY have enabled the restriction that prevents application installation -- thinking it would limit use of the AppStore purchase on the phone.
I removed restrictions and I was able to sync. I'm not sure this is so much a bug as a usability issue.

"Erase Junk Mail" grayed out

When I want to delete the mail in my Junk mailbox, the "Erase Junk Mail" option is grayed out. The "Erase Deleted Messages" option works fine for the other mailboxes. Anyone know how I can fix this problem? Now I have to "select all" and then delete, and that's a three-step pain.

if you select the main junk mailbox, the delete button is greyed out, so you have to select a specific junk mailbox associated with an email account of yours. If that does not work then try the following:
1) quit mail, reboot computer, launch mail again, does that solve the problem?
if does not help then
2) launch mail, select each of your junk mailboxes, not the main one, then go to mailbox>rebuild and rebuild each of these junk mailboxes
if does not help then
3) go to applications>utilities>disk utility and repair permissions - may take awhile to let the process run its course
if does not help, then let me know
hope this helps

I went to screen layout of asset master dep area..but where is the setting to change it to change mode.It has only the Req opt etc field.

Hi
First you see the screen layout assigned to the asset. use AS02 goto Environment -Screen Layout-Select Master Data. See what screen layout is using.Go to the screen layout and check whether this filed is optional or supprsed, if it is supprsed than make it optional.
