Layer won't unlock

I've been using Fireworks for about 7 years (Mac and PC
current problem is on Mac) so there's not a lot I don't know about
it although I admit I haven't spent a lot of time learning new
features in CS3 but for the first time I have a layer I am unable
to unlock.....It shows the lock I click to unlock and it just fades
the lock. Its an un-unlockable lock. I can lock and unlock other
layers no problem but this one layer is stuck. If it helps this WAS
a sublayer when it was originally locked. Now it is at the root
level.
I really really really do not want to delete whats in this
layer but I can't get into it.

This is what worked for the other guy who had a problem with
this.
1. Open up the image source file in Fireworks CS3
2. Then look to the top right of the screen/workarea,
3. Click on "Pages" then on layout[Master Page],
4. Then select "layers" proceed to unlock the sections you
need to work
with.

  • Layer won't unlock for 32 bit image in CS4

    I'm running Photoshop CS4 11.0.1 on Windows XP SP3. When I generate a 32 bit image from FILE > AUTOMATE > MERGE TO HDR, the resulting image has a single layer that cannot be unlocked. Consequently, when converting to 16 bit, I can't manually adjust the sliders in the Toning Curve & Histogram area of the HDR Conversion dialog box. What am I missing?

    Ah, that's why I've been pulling my hair out! Thanks for preventing me from losing any more, Chris. I'm not using Extended, so that explains it. I did find the sliders, and they were helpful.

  • Nokia 6300 won't unlock keyguard

    Hello i got a nokia 6300 for christmas and i decided to try out the security keyguard. i used the default code 12345 and locked the keypad. my younger brother tried around 20 times to unlock the keypad and now the keypad won't unlock. how do i unlock my phone? HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Remove the battery for 30sec & put it back & check. If it fails your younger brother might accidentaly changed the default, then a trip to Nokia Care Center for reflash the only option.

  • Droid 1 won't unlock

    Earlier today I dropped my phone, but nothing cracked or broke and it looks just fine. I've used it since then, too. But I just got a text and when I went to slid the bar over to unlock my phone, it won't slide. It starts to move and it vibrates, but it won't slide all the way and thus my phone stays locked. I've restarted it a few times, pulled the battery out and let it sit, and it still won't unlock.
    Anybody have any solutions/advise? It's really bugging me just watching the notification light blink and I can't check it >:(

    Good morning kelsietrunnell.
    I know it can be upsetting to have content in your phone that you need to access, but cannot.  Let's try to figure this out, and hope it didn't get internally damaged with the fall.  Are you still unable to unlock your phone?  Are you able to answer it if it rings, or place phone calls?  Since you have already tried restarting and pulling the battery, the next best option is a Hard Reset.  You may have to use the Alternate Method if you're still unable to use the keys on your phone. 
    If you still cannot use the phone, please send me a Direct Message, and I will be happy to personally assist you further.
    Thank You,

  • I-pad won't unlock, doesn't respond to touch

    Hi,
    My ipad won't unlock. It doesn't seem to respond to touch at all. It was working fine last night but this morning i can't get passed the unlock screen. No touch seems to do anything.
    Things I have already tried include:
    restarting by pressing the top key and the home key
    updating the software
    Any other help would be greatly appreciated. This is very frustrating.
    Thank you.

    1. Turn off iPad

    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...

    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.

  • 2G won't unlock! Help!

    I have an IPod Touch 2G and it worked fine up until yesterday. I went to use it today and it displayed the screen showing the USB cord and ITunes. I had to download the latest version of ITunes then restore the IPod to factory settings. Now, the screen won't unlock.
    I have seen in other forum posts of users holding in the top button and the home button to restart the IPod. This doesn't work on mine, it just gets stuck on the screen displaying the Apple logo. Then, I have to plug it into my computer to get it to come back on.
    I have had the IPod for 3 years or so now and I do not have a warrenty on it. I don't even know where my closest Apple store is! I just wondered what I can do to fix this thing!!! Also, does anyone know how much it will cost to get it fix if I do have to take it in with no warrenty?

    Have you got an ipod nano because you probaly have the screen lock on. When it is connected to the computer can you get on to it?
    I hope it helps

  • IPad won't unlock (slide to unlock) in landscape

    Hi... I've got a user whose iPad won't unlock when it is in the landscape position... but will unlock in the portrait position.
    Initially, it wouldn't unlock in either. I had the user take off his screen protector and then it would unlock in portrait.
    Any ideas, or is this an Applecare fix?
    Thanks

    You could try cleaning the screen to remove any residue from the screen protector.

  • Ipod mini won't unlock or do anything!!!

    OK, here is the deal, I couldn't get my ipod to unlock, the little lock icon stayed on and I couldn't do anything, so I thought that if I restored it to factory condition it would fix itself. Well it didn't! Now it won't turn on unless it's plugged into the computer and it won't unlock so I can't do anything with it. Is there anything I can do that I haven't done?? I have tried to restart it by holding down the select and menu button and it did nothing.

    Have you taken the hold button off?
