"Preferences" on "Edit" is greyed out. How do I un-gray it?

I'm nopt sure what else I can tell you.

You are running Firefox on the Windows platform like your More system details list shows?
As posted above, there is only an Edit > Preferences menu item if you are on the Linux platform and not on the Windows platform.

  • Edit is greyed out, how can I cut and paste

    when I want to copy something from a web page, I click on the orange "Firefox" but the edit option is greyed out and not usable. How can I cut, copy, and paste in this new format?

    You can do one of the following after you have highlighted what you want to copy:
    *click the Firefox button, the middle icon (looks like 2 pages with folded corners) will be available for clicking; that icon is "Copy" if you rest your cursor over the icon
    *click the Firefox button, click the small triangle at the far right of Edit, click "Copy"
    *in Windows, click Ctrl+C to "Copy" (Ctrl+V will "Paste")
    I have "Copy", "Paste" and "Cut" buttons on the Customize Palette which you can drag to a toolbar. To open the Customize toolbar window, click Firefox button > Options > Toolbar Layout; if using the Menu Bar, click View > Toolbars > Customize.

  • I want to uncheck the box "Display PDF in Browser" in Reader X preferences but it is greyed out.

    I want to uncheck the box "Display PDF in Browser" in Reader X preferences but it is greyed out in Preferences. No one seems to know how to get it unchecked??
    ANY suggestions please, am wasting my saturday morning. This issue resulted from upgrade to latest Adobe Reader version X but uninstalling and reinstalling the older version is not the answer, tried that :-)

    See if this helps: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4340658
    That is, running Firefox in 32-bit mode with a recent version of FireFox (>= 10).

  • Working w/ existing HTML - there's no stage, and "snap to guides" greyed out - how do I fix this?

    I designed my page in Dreamweaver CS6, and I want to animate the elements with Edge Animate...
    I've noticed, though, that I don't have a Stage in the Elements panel, I'm trying to follow along some instructions/tutorials and a lot seems to start with adding code to the stage or code that references the stage... in lieu of this, do I just create a .container div and use it the same way?
    ALSO, I can't seem to use the "snap-to-guides" Feature in the View menu... it stays greyed out, how do I turn that feature on?
    PLUS it's not allowing me to switch anything from px to %! I select any of my div's in the elements panel and the little px to % switches are greyed out!!
    ... basically what I'm trying to do is center an image/symbol on my web page but without guides, that's tricky and I'm just estimating things (I want the starting image in the exact center of the screen when my animation starts...
    Thanks for any help!

    it sure sounds like the battery is defect

  • Acrobat X Pro Form Edit option greyed out

    Acrobat X Professional running on Win7 32bit.
    We are converting a word document into PDF with Acrobat, however after the file is converted the option to Edit Form is greyed out.
    The same word document can be converted on other PCs with Adobe X Pro, where the Form Editing tools are available to use.

    Do you see other Editing options like Distribute Forms, create etc? Are they all greyed out?
    If that is the case- Look for Form (AcroForm.api) under Help->Adobe Acrobat Plug-ins. Is that available?
    Check the conversion settings under Preferences-> Convert to PDF-> Select MS word from the list. Look if there is any security set.

  • Server app v3.01 User Accounts password add/reset/editing functions greyed out

    I recently upgraded a Lion server to Mavericks with 1500 users and 450 clients on Xserve early2009 2.26Ghz Quad core Xeon 24GB RAM  32 TB Raid.
            All the upgrade went ok through 10.7 to 10.8 to 10.9 apart from having to rekerberise the realm to get users to log in from various 10.7,10.8,10.9x10) clients . I do not use Profile Manager as yet as I have had lots of faults on test networks etc so I continue to use Workgroup Manager 10.9 and Server app v3.01 now that Server Admin Tools has been discontinued.
            I have noticed however that all my users in Accounts/Server App are not editable such as password resets adding and deleting users etc. If you choose Edit User all the information shows but is greyed out for editing etc.
      I still use WorkGroup Manager for adding/editing users and changing passwords which still functions(thank goodness).
            Am I missing something in that I cant edit/add users because I upgraded from a previous directory and OS etc? Do I have to accept the server app wont edit/add users and stick with WGM? Or are there serious underlying faults with my  open directory?
             There are also lots of quirks in the File Sharing pane with users hanging on after logging out from clients and duplicates of log ins when they log in again. Today I restarted my server to update the Server app to 3.01 and i got a message saying 361 users were logged in although no users were showing in the File Sharing pane for about 12 hours! Obviously there is some problem with the termination of the log out process in AFP that doesnt take place. Since reboot this morning the memory usage has dramatically decreased so I am waiting to see if the errors return when we get a busy network situation later today.
    Anyone had tthese problems or fixed the issues?

    Just to update my post I referred to the the brilliant Krypted site to see if anything would help my situation and found this post on resetting the Server.app. I havent had time to try this yet but I'd like others to comment if they try it first:
    "Unresponsive Server After Mavericks Upgrade? Reset Server App
    The Server 3 app is great. But when you go making changes to some things, you’re just going to cause problems, sometimes something as simple as just upgrading to the latest and greatest version of Server… I know, you’ve been told that host name changes and IP changes are all kinds of OK at this point; “look, Charles, there’s a button!” Well, go ahead, click it. Don’t mind me, you might just be alright. But then again, you might not… And upgrades that use a migration wizard… Um, when it works it’s a thing of beauty. But when it doesn’t, you might be restoring some stuff from backup. But just before you do that restore, let’s try one more thing. Let’s try and rebuild some certificates and configuration settings that shouldn’t impact actual service operation. Let’s try to reset the Server app and let a fresh install of the Server see if it can fix issues.
    Now, I want to be clear, this is the last resort before restoration. I’ve had a lot of luck with services remaining functional and preserving settings when I do this, but don’t expect that. Basically, we’re going to do what we looked at doing back in ’09 with AppleSetupDone but one designed just for servers, so the file is in the same place (/var/db) and called .ServerSetupDone. To remove it, close Server app and run the following command:
    sudo rm /var/db/.ServerSetupDone
    Once removed, open the Server app again and then let the Server app run as though it’s new. Cruft, begone!"

  • "Edit Original" greyed out, why?

    Hi,
    I've placed some PSD files within an A3 project inside of Adobe Illustrator CS3 with some clipping masks applied. Some images need some PhotoShop treatment so I would like to invoke the "Edit Original" command in order to have the desired image open up in PhotoShop for editing (like smart objects) but "Edit Original" is "greyed out" Even when the clipping mask relationship is released the command / feature is still unavailable.
    Is there a reason why the "Edit Original" command is unavailable?
    Input appreciated.
    Cheers :)

    Ahh... I didn't see the "Link" check box.
    Now everything works :)
    Thank you very much sir!
    Kind Regards

  • VPC Loses my pcs TWICE! Why? Unable to "migrate" pc (greyed out) How to?

    Using VPC 7.02. Installed WIN 2000 and crashed once for reasons unknown. Reinstalled WIN 2k and somehow the PC disappeared from the VPC list! (after running well for about 1 month.) Only thing I can think was that it may have happened when booting from the install disc while trying to verify a new internal hard drive.
    So I reinstalled WIN 2K however I am unable to mirate th old pc using the migate data tool. I do see a "Windows 2000" in the user>documents>Virtual PC list>Windows 2000, but it is greyed out. How do I recover it?
    Thanx

  • 'Merge Cell' is greyed out - how do I activate it and merge two cells together?

    I am just learning Numbers, trying to merge two cells together should be a very simple process!
    I have followed the instructions in help
    The 'merge cells' function remains greyed out no matter what I do - I therefore cannot merge two or more cells into one!
    Please help, is there something I need to activate in the cell?

    Hi Claudia,
    Actually, a "truly blank document" would be an empty canvas, containing no table of any type, no document header or footer locations, no document margins, no page definitions, no page orientation. Just a blank sheet onto which you could put whatever objects you wish.
    Perhaps Apple should have named the 'not blank' templates "Basic" rather than blank, removed the header column, and left the header row intact. That would match the "Basic" table style available in the Tables button's menu, used for adding a table to a Sheet.
    If you really do want to always start with a table which has no header rows and no header columns, it's easy enough to set up.
    Open a new 'blank' document (Apple's 'blank').
    Click on the Table 1 icon in the Sheets list and press delete. (faster than selecting cell A1, then taking two trips to the Table menu to delete first the (header) row then the (header) column)
    Click the Tables button and choose Plain to insert a 'plain' table (no header row, no header column)
    (optional) Add or delete rows or columns to make the blank table the size you desire.
    (optional) Position the table where you want it.
    Save the result as a Template.
    In Numbers Preferences > General > For New Documents, select Use Template, then Choose your new template.
    Until you change that preference, any New document you make will contain your new, 'blank' table.
    Regards,
    Barry
