Photos grey out in i cloud

I can't click on photo option in i cloud so that i can use photo streaming. I have tried all suggestions to date with no success.

You have to buy iPhoto 9.5.1, the current App Store version, to use Photo Streams with MacOSX 10.9.4.
Be sure to make a backup of your iPhoto Library, before you open it the first time in iPhoto '11, version 9.5.1. The library will need to be upgraded, because the format is different.

DVD Rom Photos greyed out

I have burnt a disk with DVD-Rom content but I cannot access the photographs because on the disk as they are greyed out. The content folder allows me to the photos but as I say the photos are greyed out.
The disk is DVD-RW.
Cheers
Steve Hill

Not 100% certain but you may have a media issue and/or burn speed issue.
Did you try making a disc image first (from the file menu)?
If not, try it and then use apple's dvd player app to test proper playback and content.
When you get ready to burn to DVD-R or DVD-RW make sure to lower the burn speed with apple's disc utilities / toast to 2x or lower.
For troubleshooting and while on this forum please use only Verbatim / Maxell.
Hope this helps but if not come on back.

Upload failure. Lost important photos - greyed out subfolder

Uploaded many photos but it created a greyed out subfolder with no photos behind. Nothing in iphoto, recovered file. The subfolder created by date shows a palm tree in grey but nothing behind. How can I recover these photos.

iPhoto doesn't create folders or sub-folders unless you tell it. So I'm not sure I understand what you're asking here.
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

Songs I recently downloaded are all Greyed out with a grey cloud next to them?

Recently got an iTunes gift card for Christmas and was at my family's house. I went on their iTunes and signed into my Apple ID Account to use my new gift card under my Account. Everything went fine until I went home and opened my iTunes account on my PC Windows Computer. The recently Downloaded songs are ALL Greyed Out with a Cloud next to them? Now I can't play any of these NEW SONGS I just purchased?!?! PLEASE HELP ME!!

I downloaded one of the file explorer programs (iFunbox in my case) for my PC and deleted everything out of the "Purchases" folder on the phone's "Raw File System". After a couple of syncs with iTunes everything was back to normal. It appears that something was screwed up on the iPhone side that iTunes couldn't sort out. I don't think anything could sync from iTunes to the phone, not just the greyed out items.
This is why resetting and restoring the iPhone also works for a lot of people. It's overkill though, deletes your app data, and just wastes your time setting everything back up after the restore. Better to use the surgical approach of a file system explorer program on your PC to fix what appears to be a mundane data corruption issue.

Why original music won't play (greyed out) ?

I know this is a well covered issue with Apple, iTunes, iPhones/Pads/Pods... I'm reading tons of questions and different solutions about this problem.
I had my share of this with purchased music as well as CD copied. My ecosystem is all Apple (Apple desktop, MacBook Pro, iPhones, iPads, Apple TV... My loyalty is (still) there as I have invested too much in iTunes purchases :-) ...
But I also need to use all this ecosystem as a work tool and 2 times out of 3 (can't figure out why it works sometimes...), when I create music and need as a producer to test some mixes in my car or earbuds through an iPhone, I'm stucked with a file that remains greyed out on some devices, even though it will play on the computer where it was created. The song title appear on my iPhone, and on MacBook Pro but remain greyed out. No cloud image on this line that I could simply click to bring it on the device.
No I have not unplugged anything.
Yes I use sharing and I subscribe to iMatch which should make everything available everywhere...
Even a forced sync (wired) won't fix it. And no I don't want to backup, reset, spend hours to this bug which appears to last forever from posts I am reading back to 2010 and probably earlier, which should have been fixed by Apple for long... As musician and producer, I am beside anything related to protecting IP, however, when I can't even access my own IP, there's something wrong... (So I am besides anyone who purchased music legally and faces the same issue !... )
So, just in case someone has an explanation or suggestion (update) to this frustrating issue, I am asking this question again...
Thanks,
Rob

A month and no one has a clue ?? ....
I'm not alone on this one, c'mon guys !

Photostream Greyed out in Icloud Control Panel v.3

I was using without error Icloud Control panel v3. on my Windows 7 PC.
Having upgraded to IOS 7 on the phone, Itunes 11.1 on PC and Icloud Control Panel 3.0
I now have Photos greyed out. This was working on the previous version.
Having signed in / out this has not made any difference.

Have had some success with multiple computers running Windows 7, Vista, and Windows Server 2008 doing the following with iCloud Control Panel 3.1 (combination of several different remedies posted in forum):
Sign out of iCloud Control Panel
Open Task Manager and End all Apple iCloud and Photostream processes
Delete the files from the Directory C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Mediastream
Open iCloud Control Panel and sign in with apple ID
If Photo option is still greyed out, sign out and sign back in with iCloud email address and password.
This has worked for seven users that I support across several different windows hardware platforms. Good luck!

My problem is that after printing the first photo or picture, when I come to print a second, both the Colour Management and Epson Colour Controls are greyed out and showing No Colour Management

I have recently purchased a Mac computer (updated to Maverick) to go with my Epson Stylus Photo RX500 printer which has given excellent service with my old Windows computer. However, when trying to print pictures or photos via Photoshop Elements 11, the best results I can get are using the Colour Management and Epson Colour controls in the printing options box.
My problem is that after printing the first photo or picture, when I come to print a second, both the Colour Management and Epson Colour Controls are greyed out and showing No Colour Management, The only way I can reset the controls is to shut down the printer and computer and restart.
Could there may be a setting somewhere that I need to adjust please? I have been in touch with Epson and they say that the Epson Colour controls are part of the Photoshop Elements software but a post on the Adobe forum brought no results and I am unable to contact Adobe.
<Edited by Host>

Hello Garry. Thanks for the reply. I guess I should have used a different title from "How do I post a question?" That should come after trying to resolved the colour settings first. However, to answer your question, after experimenting with all the different settings in Photoshop Elements and Epson software, I now start with PSE11 Colour settings then click "no colour management" then after clicking Print, I choose "More Options/Colour Management/Colour Handling/Printer Manages Colour" then I choose "Page Setup/Layout/Colour Matching" which then shows Epson Colour Controls but I also choose "Layout/Colour Management" which then shows "Colour Controls/Mode" I then of course choose an Epson printer profile depending on the paper I am using. I get good results but as I said, the Colour Matching and Colour Controls are then greyed out. Hope that makes sense.

Hello, I have songs that show they are "Waiting" for download from the cloud but they are greyed out. Some songs in one album are done others in the same album will not download. It is not a time function because i have been working on this for weeks. I have allowed my compter to run for days and the songs are still not accessible. I have a Match subscription and Match is working. If I click on the "Genre" link the greyed out songs show that they are ready for download from the cloud but I cannot download them. I have downloaded over 1500 other songs, so I am trying to understand what is going on here. I would appreciate any help anyone can give me.
Thanks

I did think about that and if I have to I will do that, however there are about 50 songs. I have closed and reopened iTunes several times and I am sure that I have the latest version. It fails right away but I can click on the cloud download icon and download the song that it failed on ... therefore it is not that song "or any one song" causing the issue. Any ideas?

Want to scan multiple photos on HP c309 series as individual files; the box to allow is greyed out.

I'm using an HP Photosmart C309A All in one. I use Windows 7. I have multiple photos to scan and want them to scan as individual files. I did that previously several months ago with no problem. The box which should allow me to do so is not available to check. It is grayed out.
Anything to try would be appreciated.

Hi @Mamusworld,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that you want to scan multiple photos on your HP Photosmart c309 as individual files, but the box to allow it is greyed out. I am happy to help!
This sounds as if there is a driver/software issue with your printer software. I would recommend the following:
Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Clean boot the computer. How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
Re-install using the HP Print and Scan Doctor.
Hope this helps, and have a great day!

Why is my preview area showing only greyed out boxes instead of photos?

I am unable to import my photos so they can be seen. Whether I try to import them from the hard drive, camera card, or my desktop (following the tutorial), I do not see photographs in the preview area, only greyed out boxes instead of photos. If I imported 6 photos, I have six greyed out (photo-sized) boxes. The specific photos are there somehow, becuase they are properly named when I scroll the mouse over them, but I see only flat grey, no pictures. As I said, this happens even when I follow the tutorial and import from my desktop.

George,
I appreciate you responding to my inquiry. We (that would be the "royal" we, which would be my husband) finally determined that the monitor was not configured properly. "We" discovered this out after uninstalling and reinstalling Lightroom several times.
To answer your question, I was trying to import both photos taken in JPEG, as well as RAW, both were problematic. I could import no images. It was interesting that I could tell all of the data was coming over (when I floated the cursor over a grayed-out box I could read the data), just not the images.
I have a Nikon D5100. I purchased Lightroom 5.0 just before now(two days ago), and was trying to install and play with it. I upgraded to 5.2 as I was going into it for the first time (it is an automatic question). I knew there was obviously a problem when I couldn't see any images. Particularly when I went into the tutorials -- it just reemphasized that something was wrong. Who ever thinks of how their monitor is configured?????
Thank you for following up. I was very frustrated for many, many hours.

I am not able to import photos into Lightroom 5.7. When I select a folder, it doesn't show a preview of the images and the import button is greyed out. ??

I have been using Lightroom 5 for 2-3 months now and all worked well, up until today's effort to import a new set of photos. I am working on a Mac with Yosemite 10.10.1.

Go to the bibliothec module, select the folder, right click on the folder and hit synchronize
Sorry I have only a german version , so don't know what your menu will show.

I have a itunes 11, iMac, iPad sync issue... all new kit, the itunes library and photos are on a networrk drive but syncing is useless, no music, no photos, no video, sometimes music and videos may be visible but greyed out on the ipad....

This is my first posting so sorry for the messy title... I didn't realise how it all worked here.
I have a shiny new imac, shiny new ipad and have all my media on a network hard drive - itunes works fine on the mac - no problems - photos visible in finder and photoshop - no problems, but when I come to sync the new ipad - several things may happen (I have tried many times now)
1) a long wait - whirly gig round spinner thing - then music visible on the ipad but greyed out and useless
2) no photos at all synced
3) no videos synced
4) info syncs ok
5) apps seem to have synced OK
It is not a data size issue as the same amount of data synced before the new kit from my old windows pc on to an iPod - I daren't try syncing the ipod as I need it for my next business trip.
I tried removing the ipod cache files for the photos - no difference - I tried restoring the ipad - no difference
Have I completely wasted a large amount of money?

ps when syncing it jumps through steps 1 - 4 real fast, i seem to remeber iphone showing the number of tracks transferring and names, but i see nothing? then it sits on 5 saying "waiting for changes to be applied"

I used a usb turntable to import old vinyl records into iTunes. Then with the cloud and iTunes match I put them on another Mac. The songs come up in the music list but they are greyed out. How do I get them recognized.

I used a usb turntable to import old vinyl records into iTunes. Then with the cloud and iTunes match I put them on another Mac. The songs come up in the music list but they are greyed out. How do I get them recognized. The symbol states the songs were downloaded from iCloud. I would like to get them to play so that I can make a playlist, and burn a CD.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
