Newbie question - Regions grayed out, audio not playing... please help!

Good morning,
I've got a problem that seems like it should have a simple solution, but I don't know enough about Logic to know what the solution is.
I had put together a few tracks and everything was working fine. Now, for some reason, the regions are grayed out and when I hit play, there is no sound and the meters do not register anything. I've checked the levels on the mixer, and I have the proper audio input-output settings in the preferences (I think); the audio just isn't playing.
Note that when I double click the region and go into sample editor mode, the audio plays fine.
Here is a screenshot: http://grab.by/3nMD
Can someone please help?
Thanks so much!

Hello,
Logic has a number of ways to mute or solo regions, tracks and channels.
Select the two regions (they are selected in the picture) and press the 'M' key on your keyboard. This will unmute them.
There is a very good and easy to follow tutorial for new users I recommend very highly -

Clips imported into iMovie will not play: Please Help!

I have been working on a project in iMovie for awhile now and I have a few different clips imported into it. I have not had a problem with it before yesterday. I went to import another clip and for some reason I got error message "-43" that said it could not copy the files into iMovie. Then today when I opened iMovie to try again, all the clips that had been imported already were grayed out and a little yellow warning sign was in the bottom left hand corner of each clip display (yellow triangle with ! in the middle). They would not play.
It is not the clips though- they work fine when I open them in quicktime and iPhoto.
I don't know if this is ay significance, but this morning before the clips stopped working iMovie made new thumbnails- could this be any reason why it isn't working?
Can anyone help with this problem? I don't know what happened!

Try restoring the iPhone to factory settings. If you are having difficult restoring, put the iPhone into Recovery Mode and see if that then works:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If not, or if a restore to factory settings does not fix the problem, then your iPhone may have a hardware problem. You can only get the iPhone serviced by Apple in Canada, so you will have to take the iPhone there or send it to someone you know in Canada who can get the iPhone serviced and send it back to you. The only option for getting service in Pakistan would be to pay some unauthorized repair shop to attempt a repair, after which Apple will no longer provide any service even in Canada.

My project has lost the audio track. I imported tracks from iTunes, they are in the project but do not play, please help?

Hi...my movie project has lost the audio track. I can see it but nothing plays.
The movie record has its audio but the imported iTunes track is silent.

This might sound weird, but here's an idea which worked for me re music that was newly added to itunes and showed up in my ipod but wouldn't play - I simply played the tracks in itunes first, just a second of time or so will do it, not the whole track, then connect the ipod and sync again and this time they played - hope this helps.

(OSStatus error -50.) video files not playing please help

I own a Nikon D300s, I have been downloading video from it for quite a while without any issues, but today when I tried to open some of my video clips I received the error code below...
*The movie could not be opened*.
Operation could not be completed. (OSStatus error -50.)
I am curious if anybody else has had this problem and how can I solve it?
I posted it here because all my clips are Quicktime AVI logos. All the video that works show the start of the clip.
HELP!!
thanks

I just got a new MBP yesterday and have perian, but i cannot open an .mkv file that could on my old computer. I have the most recent version of perian, this should be working. If anyone has any idea what OSStaus Error -50 means, please tell me and help me fix it because a new computer is supposed to work BETTER than the one that was four years old and couldn't run iTunes at the same time as Pages.

Hi Charlotte,
You don't say what your version of Windows you have. Assuming XP, go to Start | Run, type DXDIAG and click OK. Click the Sound tab and run the tests to eliminate a hardware problem first of all. If you don't hear anything, check your cables first of all. Also make sure "Mute" isn't checkmarked in your sound setup. You'll find that in Windows Control Panel.
Which browser do you use? If you have Firefox 4, sign up to the HTML5 trial @ http://www.youtube.com/html5
HTML5 is the latest video standard and doesn't require Flash player. Google is in the process of converting all its files to work with the new format. It may solve you problem. If you don't have Firefox 4, you can get it from here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/
IE8 doesn't support HTML5.
To clean out your temp files, go to Start | Run, type: CLEANMGR and click OK. Click OK again to start the utility. Tick all the boxes except "Compress old files" because the latter takes too long, and then click OK. You can run this utility any time you wish by the way.
The above steps will hopefully fix your problem. If not, post here again please.

I've been using LR with my Nikon D3200 for a year or so. Shooting in RAW/NEF no issues with import etc until I updated LR and now I can't get LR to allow me to select when I try to import. It does show the images but they're grayed out and not able to be selected. Any thoughts? TIA

Greyed imaged in the Import dialog box mean you have already imported the photos into Lightroom, so there is no need and no benefit to importing them a second time.
Just go to the Library module, search for the desired photos, and resume working on these photos.

After syncing my music onto my iphone5, why are songs grayed out and not playable

after syncing my music onto my iphone5, why are songs grayed out and not playable?

If you are syncing music to the iPhone automatically, you won't be able to drag and drop tracks on to the iPhone and the music will be grayed out.
You'll have to Manually Manage the music.
Configure iPhone, iPad, or iPod for manual management
If you have iTunes 7 or later*, follow these instructions:
Connect the device to your computer.
Open iTunes.
Select iPhone, iPad, or iPod in the Devices list.
Click the Summary tab and select "Manually manage music and videos".
Click Apply.
Even when you have enabled manual management, you can still sync some content automatically. Select any content tab, such as Video, to enable automatic syncing for that type of content.

Audio not played for Motion Background

I have created a movie in my NLE as a motion background for a menu in Encore 2.0. When I preview the dvd project after rendering the audio plays fine but when I burn to dvd the audio is missing but the motion video still plays.
Why is this audio not playing on the burned dvd

In what form is the motion background when you bring it into Encore? Is it an avi? Is it compressed?
Is the audio stream a separate file?
If separate, is the audio stream a different length to the video file? Is the audio stream just a .wav file or what?

HT204406 My itunes are grayed out and wont play on my iphone?

Grayed out tunes wont play on my iphone?

Hello G4RNR,
When you have grayed out songs on your iPhone, those songs didn't completely transfer over. I found some articles that will guide you in syncing.
If you have iTunes 11, you can use one of the following articles:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12113
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12313
If you have an earlier version of iTunes, you can use this article (the title of the article says iPod, but the steps also work with the iPhone as well):
iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

Is there an instrument that speaks out the note played?

I can't read or play music myself, and I need to help my son learn his notes. So I was wondering if there is an instrument that speaks out the note played?

Will this work for you?

The built-in mic in g50 122ca laptop model is not working. please help me out.

the built-in mic in g50 122ca laptop model is not working. please help me out. OS: Windows Vista (32-bit)

here is a sample code .
so far you procedure looks good but
i bet you have to specify the name of report , instead of 'filename'.
see this
Plist_id := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('P_name');
IF NOT ID_NULL(Plist_id) THEN
DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(Plist_id);
END IF;
Plist_id := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('P_name');
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Receive_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Receive_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Hearing_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Hearing_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Hearing_time', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Hearing_time,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Issue_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Issue_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Workshop_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Workshop_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
-- RUN_PRODCT(REPORTS,'..\Reports\Pro_License',SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, Plist_id, NULL);
-- here Pro_License is the name of report.
did you tried to see if the parameter passed using a message ?
try
message('parameter name'); pause; write this before "run_report".
