Server 2003 Automatic Update Greyed out

 I have a primary Server 2003 that has the automatic up feature greyed out. I found the group policy setting on the domain controller and changed it with a reboot but it is still greyed out. I also have 3 member servers where the automatic updates are greyed out and can not be change. Does anyone know why the option is greyed out under the administrator account? Any help would be appreciated.

When an option is greyed out in the user interface this is typically caused by an applied Group Policy Object (GPO)
Using rsop.msc on the console of your server you can see which Group Policy Object on what level (Local settings, Active Directory Site settings, Active Directory Domain settings, settings from Organizational Units) applies the setting. You can then change the setting in the right Group Policy Object(s).
More information on running rsop.msc on Windows Server 2003 can be found in Microsoft Knowledgebase article 323276.

  • Why is the automatic updater greyed out?

    Not only is the automatic updater in IPhoto greyed out, I can also not manually download and install the update.  I am asked to download from the app store which does not recognise that IPhoto is installed and asks me to pay for a new copy.... any ideas why????

    Where did you purchase the version of iPhoto you have? Have you looked in teh App store under purchases?

  • Incoming mail server has changed, but greyed out in Mail, can't be corrected

    The incoming mail server for my website's email account has changed, but the incoming server box is greyed out and doesn't allow me to change it to the correct one.  I do not want to delete the account and start again because all mail and contacts associated with the account will be lost.  So far all the suggestions regarding greyed out incoming server boxes have to do with iCloud but while i use iCloud, I don't use it for mail or have an @iCloud email address.  They also involve starting from scratch with Mail, which would be a huge problem for me trying to save all my emails and reconstruct my mailboxes.
    What gives with this issue? a lot of people seemed to have it, though I saw no responses later than 2012.  Unlike other people, I can still get my mail, but the server certificate always comes up invalid.  I can tell Mail to trust it, but This greyed out thing is certainly a bug or unintended consequence.  I want to be able to change that field.

    Sorry, Guess I solved my own problem anyway.  Perhaps this will help others.  I unchecked "automatically detects and maintain account settings", closed and saved the mail preferences window ( I had also updated my outgoing server info which was not greyed out )  I closed Mail and when I reopened it, the incoming server was no longer greyed out and I could change it which I did.  I may recheck the auto detect box once I have ensured that the port settings are all correct.

  • Automatic updates maxing out CPU on windows server 2003

    Since this last roll out of updates that have come through I have noticed on my 2003 servers that the automatic update service is maxing out the cpu.  The updates are simple downloading and are set for a deadline, so the updates have not officially
    installed yet. They are all virtual machines running in an VMware environment.  They are Server 2003 SP2 x86 machines. Any suggestions would be appreciated.  When I turn the automatic update service back on the cpu pegs.

    I read that IE and Automatic Updates are correlated and if there is a cumulative update waiting for IE then this can cause the CPU issue.  For me I had IE 6 still on my Windows 2003 servers and I installed this update that came out just recently:
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=41033
    After you install this and reboot, then things settle down and you will see the rest of the updates you've approved in WSUS ready to install (if you have any).  
    I'm pretty sure this will fix it for you.
    Note - just for reference, the KB is KB2888505

  • I have recently copied my iTunes to a new computer using the instructions from Apple site, via an external drive. My iPod will not sync on the new computer. The option to sync automatically is greyed out and it won't let me set it. How do I resolve?

    I have recently installed iTunes on a new Windows 8 laptop and copied from my old XP system using an external drive. This all went ok. The problem is that i can't get my iPod classic to sync on the new laptop. I did a factory reset and re-install. It still won't sync. When I hit the 'sync' icon it does nothing. In the Options screen the option to automatically sync is greyed out and doesn't allow me to enter anything in the box. How can i resolve this?

    You need iTunes on the computer. There is no iTunes for your phone. See:

  • In Dreamweaver CS6, the Plus (+) button in the Server Behaviors panel is greyed out. How do I make it operational?

    I am trying to restrict access to a page by redirecting unauthorized users to another page. The Adobe manual instructs me to:
    Open the page you want to protect.  
    In the Server Behaviors panel (Window > Server Behaviors), click the Plus button and select User Authentication > Restrict Access To Page from the pop‑up menu.  
    I opened the page and went to the Server Behaviors panel.
    Unfortunately, the Plus button is greyed out and not operational. How do I make the Plus button operational so that I can then select User Authentication, etc?
    Charlie

    You can't apply server behaviors to pages that don't contain (or are specified to be when they are created) server scripting. That means they must have the proper filename extension, e.g., filename.php or filename.aspx/

  • PrE 8 'updates' greyed out = can't update!

    PS Driver updates have not worked.

    Someone on this forum mentioned that turning off McAfee solved his problem
    with PE8.  That suggestion is buried somewhere on this forum and I ran across it in desparation after installing PE8 on my girlfriend's computer.
    Hunt (on this forum) recommends one should NEVER use real-time scanning when one is video-editing.  He is right.  Turn it off and don't connect to the net either.   It's best to reboot your computer, turn off the scanning, and close other system tray items (if possible) and then use PE8.
    I would also recommend looking for the PE .EXE (there are two) and making a shortcut to the one that is not that start-up screen.   It's best to go right into the program.
    Cheers,

  • UC Integration for Lync - Show my video automatically is greyed out

    In a copy of CUCILync set to use desk phone for calls, if I select Video in Options the tickbox for 'Show my video automaitcally' is greyed.  If on a call the option for 'Add video to call' is greyed out also.  However if I switch CUCILync to softphone mode, video works perfectly.  I've checked the config of the IP phone in CM and the Extension mobility Profile and can't spot anything that looks wrong for this user.  Can anybody suggest what the problem might be please?
    Thanks

    As an update, I have tried this with various Windows 7 PCS, both 32-bit & 64-bit and various cameras including VT Camera II & VT Camera III.  All the PCs have CUCILync v8.5 installed.  All of the Windows 7 64-bit PCs show this behaviour, no matter what camera is used.  All the Windows 7 32-bit PCs work fine.  All of the cameras work fine in Windows 7 64-bit with other application, including Lync native video calling itself.  My conclusion is that CUCILync 8.5 on Windows 7 64-bit has a problem with video.  Can anyone else confirm this?

  • Is there a reason why some applications have "updates" greyed out and others don't ?

  • HT4623 iOS 6.1.3 update greyed out my Wifi. Resetted my settings but still not working.

    Hi Apple,
    Recently I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 6.1.3 but noticed that my Wifi is greyed-out. I tried resetting all my settings but to no avail. Anyway to rescue my phone?
    Thanks!

    It that doesn't help, folk wisdom says to put it in a plastic bag (to prevent condensation), then put in a freezer for 15 minutes. When it comes out it may be fixed.

  • Mac App Store Mavericks update greyed out

    When I try to update to Mavericks in the Mac App Store on a MacBook Air (11-inch, Mid 2012) running OS X 10.7.5, but the "Install App" button does not appear to do anything, and in the "Purchases" window, the OS X Mavericks button is greyed out.
    I have tried restarting, killing the storeagent, deleting the plists, and nothing seems to help.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you!

  • 6.1.3 update greyed out my Wifi. What should I do?

    After the 6.1.3 update on my 4S, my wifi button is completely greyed out. Prior to this, everything including my wifi was working perfectly.
    I have spent the day reading posts with similar problems; unfortunately, nothing seems to work.
    I have read options such as replacing the unit with the Apple store. This sounds promising however, to me it is not because I am out of warranty and if this IS really a bug from the recent update (which I really think it is), why can't it be fixed?
    Has anyone of you got solutions that could help?
