Property panel is grayed out

I am in the early stages of learning DW CS5. I'm learning how to create a new CSS rule/class.
But after I've set up my new rule/class in the CSS Panel, I go to the Property Panel to enable the new rule,
but it is grayed out. It is inactive. I can't do anything with it.
Does anyone know why this is and how to fix?
thanks!!
Edit: Never mind! I was in Live View!

Try hitting the Escape key. If this works there was a modal dialog open off screen.

Capture Panel is gray out

Hello,
We click capture to capture the video. However, we cannot stop it. We try to click on the pause the the option is gray out. All the function keys on the capture panel is gray out.
Please help,
Thanks

Vivian,
Is this a double-post, as I see the same thing in the PrE forum, on this THREAD?
Exactly which version of Premiere are you using? PrE and PrPro are somewhat similar, but different enough that one should post to the specific forum, as users of PrE might not know PrPro, and vice versa. Also, directions for one might not translate to the other - similar, but different.
Let us know about which version of Premiere you are using. If PrE, then the MOD's can delete this post. If PrPro, then the MOD's might want to branch off that Thread's Replies to here, as some material has already been covered there.
Good luck,
Hunt

Y50 Synaptic Control Panel Settings grayed out

I recently had my y50 sent to Lenovo to repair a faulty USB port. When the laptop returned, the hardware issue was resolved and Lenovo had also reflashed Windows. However, there was a new problem. I can't modify any settings in the synaptics control panel! Registry changes also appear to have no effect on these settings as well (unless there is a registry data value which corresponds to enabling and disabling the whole control panel). I have uninstalled and reinstalled the driver numerous times (the Win8.1 x64 version provided on the Lenovo website) to no avail. I've attached some screenshots of device manager, control panel, mouse settings, and the synpatics control panel. Anyone know the issue? I know for sure that before I sent the kaptop to Lenovo, it had a different control panel installed. If someone has a copy of the older driver for this laptop, send it my way.

Dear theluketheory,
Welcome in lenovo Forums.
Please try to Uninstall Synaptics Touchpad drivers through Control Panel > Programs and Features , reboot the computer and install the below:
http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/lenovo-y-series-laptops/y50-70-notebook-lenovo/downloads/DS100271
Make sure that the driver is also uninstalled from the Device manager.

Property inspector grayed out

Hi
I am using Dreamweaver 5.5 and i have a editable region in a template that is a php page, and for some reason my property inspector is grayed out when in code or design for anything that’s inside the editable region; links text anything.
I am not in live view or live code
And anything that is grayed out because it is part of the template and can’t be change, the property inspector works for them.

Your Template has several major problems, starting with your code errors.
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fupgrade.captivedecals.com%2FTempl ates%2Fcatalog2.dwt.php
And this is not valid Template code.

<body >

To modify the <body class> in child pages, you must define an Editable Tag Attribute for the body in your Template. The code should look something like this:
<body class="@@(_document['class'])@@">
Further down the page, it looks to me like you have editable regions inside editable regions and some of them are not closed.
Check your code. Post back if you run into more problems.

CS4 grayed out panels

On the Mac OS after I return to any creative suite app using the application changer (Command-Tab) I often notice that one or more of my panels are grayed out, like this:
If I click on them they return to normal but this is very frustrating. Has anyone else had this problem? how can I fix it?
Please help!

It's an intel core 2 duo iMac running Leopard. I wouldn't call clicking on a grayed out panel a solution, it's more of a work-around. I want to fix the bug. Surely this isn't typical behaviour for CS4?

Why is "Apply to enclosed items" grayed out?

There is an archived thread on this issue but with no resolution. When I want to change permissions on the contents of a folder, very often the "Apply to enclosed items" button (in the Get Info Permissions panel) is grayed out.
Why? What's the fix? Is this a bug?

You'll only be able to apply permissions to children folders using the Finder's interface (via the Get Info or Inspector window) if you're the file's POSIX owner or if otherwise your Effective Permissions return this control (e.g. the ability to perform writesecurity and chown via an applicable ACL entry).
But, generally speaking, the POSIX owner is delegated as the user who can change permissions for a filesystem object. Any administrator who is authorized root privileges (can "su to root") can change permissions for any filesystem object. Workgroup Manager provides a simple interface for doing this, but you may want to familiarize yourself with the chmod and chown commands for greater flexibility.

The 'Get Information' button in my printer driver dialog is grayed out. This happened when I upgraded my mac (and macbook). Can't find any help anywhere.

I recently upgraded both my imac and macbook pro to a new mac mini and macbook air. I have a networked (via airport extreme) canon ipf6100 printer that had been working great from my older computers (all running current mountain lion). The new computer's printer driver setups went well and the dialog says its online and ready. The problem is the 'Get Information' button in the 'Main' driver panel is grayed out. The driver cannot read the printer's configuration (i.e. roll or sheet paper) and therefore cannot print correctly. I have tried re-installing the driver (current one from Canon's website) and have tried connecting the printer to USB directly with the same result. I have not been able to find any help on this anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,

I am trying to change the mapping for the Work email property in the User Profile but when I edit the property on the "Edit User Profile Property" page, the Property Mapping for Synchronization's "Remove" button is grayed out as well

Hi ,
For the Add New Mapping's "Add" button grayed out, when I change to another/second "Synchronization Connection" from "Source Data Connection" dropdown, then "Add" button will be available.
For the Property Mapping for Synchronization's "Remove" button grayed out,
please make sure your Farm account or user account has the following permissions, then check results again.

Why is my Photos button grayed out on iCloud control panel - PC

I cannot photo share between my PC, windows 7, and my ipad. I have icloud 3.1 and have gone through the trouble shooting steps. None of which mention what to do if the entire Photos box; including the check box, Photos title and icon and the options box are grayed out and unavailable to check or click on. I have plenty of storage, 14 GB available and my iphone and ipad share correctly. Also my contacts, calenders and tasks as well as bookmarks are working corrently.
Please help!

yes, same here.
i've replied to another thread with this issue, too. other people over there complain about it as well.
wifi signal won't turn on on iphone4s.
i have the same problem, but noone from apple has responded so far or adressed this.
i guess all you can do right now is wait for the next update, which should come in a few days.
it's REALLY frustrating...!

Helllo I cannot activate the setting in the options panel get Firefox to restore the tabs from the previous session. The option is grayed out. What can I do?

When I start Firefox itt will not restore the tabs I had open during shutdown on the last session. This used to be an option when working on something in order not to have to leave the pc on over night. Now the option under Firefox/Options/General: On Firefox Startup: "Restore the tabs & Windows that were open in the last Firefox session" is grayed out, so that I cannot select it.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.
