"Set Region" button grayed out, but I still have 3 region changes left!

Greetings!
In my black MacBook 13", the DVD Player's "Drive Region" dialog says I can change the region 3 more times.
The current drive region is Region Code 1.
I want to play a Region Code 4 DVD. The dialog says "Select New Region for Drive", and has a menu with "Region Code 4" hi-lighted, but the "Set Drive Region" button is grayed out and I cannot make the change.
Grr!

Just to make sure you're aware, but your next change is your final one.
Why don't you try a Region 1 DVD just to see if it works, and to eliminate any chance that it's some hardware issue.
If the DVD does work, then you may have to reset your Mac:

and

Do both.

  • My CD drive wont change to region 2 again even though i have 1 change left, any ideas?

    I see that no one knows the answer to this question, or prepaid customers don't get Verizon customer service help unless they dial an 800 number. I will post the outcome when I switch my current phone out and activate the new one. I don't hate Verizon or I wouldn't activate a new phone to their service, so even if I don't get the outcome that I want, I will just post what the process was like.
    I think it will be easy, but they probably will require another payment even though my next payment isn't due until the 12th. I'm not a pessimist, nor do I go around complaining on discussion boards. I just feel that if they weren't going to charge me, a customer service agent would have gladly replied. I still think prepaid is the way to go, and I've never had problems with Verizon, so if I do get charged, I will use my experience to help other customers.

  • Why Are My Text Align Buttons Grayed Out?

    My users are unable to center text when edited pages in CS3 and CS4. The standard paragraph alignment buttons are grayed out.
    All the users of my site have Admin role, and I have set up the role to allow unrestricted editing. And "Allow Users to Apply Styles"... At screenshot of some of my settings is attached. I don't see why Contribute is not allowing this basic element to work.
    Why Are My Text Align Buttons Grayed Out?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I experienced the very same issue, but found an interesting quick-fix that worked for us.
    Several of my webpage content managers reported that they could not change the text alignment in pages created using Dreamweaver nested templates. We use nested editable regions in order to restrict portions of the pages (i.e. banners and navigation menus) from being edited.
    I found that Contribute CS4 could realign text in some parts of the affected pages, but not others.
    Further exam revealed that Contribute could change the alignment on any text that was inside a table on those pages. If I inserted a table and then cut-n-pasted the problem text into the table, the text lost its style/formatting, but it could then have its alignment changed.
    Any text not inside a table could not have the alignment changed by Contribute and changing its style/formatting made no difference.
    One note though: It was interesting that after pasting the text into a table, if I selected a chunk of text, the alignment buttons grayed out again. However, if I simply clicked on the line of text (did not select it), the buttons remained active and the text alignment could be changed.
    I don't know why it is happening. The nested regions were working fine, or so I thought, until recently.
    The above is a quick-fix and got my page content managers back online, but I'm still searching for a long-term solution if anyone has one.
    Good luck...

  • Address Book Does Not Link to Faces, Button Grayed Out

    The import face from iPhoto button is grayed out and not active on my computer, is this new Lion feature not working or not yet acitved within Lion?  Here's a description of how the feature was supposed to work (see bold text description).  I can only browse for a photo or use the camera button.
    If you like to match faces with names, the new Address Book can now pull pictures of your contacts from your iPhoto library. Double-click on the picture box on a card, then click on the Import Face From iPhoto button in the lower left corner. You’ll be presented with a grid showing up to eight faces associated with that name in iPhoto—complete with dates those shots were taken—with the current contact photo (if any) in the middle. If you have more than eight photos of a contact, you can use arrows at the bottom of the photo pop-up window to scroll through the others.

    I have the same problem but only with a couple of my contacts.
    matt.sheppard is right about having to have matching names in both applications but I still have a couple of contacts, with matching names, that it won't let me access their "face" in iPhoto.
    Sorry not much help... :-/

  • Why is the zoom button grayed out when I scan

    Operating system: Windows 7
    Software: Adobe Elements CS2
    Scanner Cannon 9000f
    When I scan a single image the zoom button is grayed out, but when I scan multiple images it is activated.  How do I activate it for a single scan.  I have selected the item to complete the scan and it is still grayed out.
    Thanks for your help.  Jim

    The person has to have an apple device and also has to be registered with iMessage, otherwise of you try to message them their name will turn red with a ! Next to the name saying they are not a registered use of iMessage.
    If your clicking on the name and typing in the box that pops up, you may be typing in the "subject" area. The iMessage has two sections to type in, the subject and content are. The bottom portion is the content area so if you have a message already started then use this area.
    The "subject" portion can be turned off also in Settings, messages
    It gives the option to turn off the subject portion here

  • Artwork Button Grayed-Out

    I have some MP3s of an unknown sample rate and different bit depths. I would like to add artwork to these files, but iTunes has the artwork button grayed-out. I can convert the MP3s to AAC, but the quality will suffer, and I don't have the original uncompressed audio to start with.
    Is there a solution to this?
    Mac Pro 2.66 GHz Quad Xeon   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   3 GB RAM

    If you do a Get Info on the MP3 in iTunes and select the Artwork tab can you add there?
    If you Ctrl Click the track in iTunes and Show in Finder then do another Get Info are the permissions set correctly?

  • Unable to rotate raw images in bridge, rotate buttons grayed out?

    Unable to rotate raw images in bridge, rotate buttons grayed out? 
    Bridge 5.0.2.4. 

    There is an ignore EXIF setting Preferences. I can't remember if that is Bridge or Photoshop, but IIRC it is for DNG files.
    Right.  Check Photosho > Preferences > File handling and make sure 'Ignore EXIF tag, is not checked.  I think that might do it, so long as it refers to sidecare files, because only RAW files would have one.

  • Why is "set first vertex" grayed out?

    I'm new to After Effects and am rather boggled by its complexity. I have searched this question and didn't find it in the forum.
    I created a path in Illustrator and pasted it into the position property of a shape object. The path works just as I wanted it to as a motion path. However, the default first vertex was not where I wanted it, so I selected the one I wanted to set as the first vertex, but the switch to do so was grayed out. I did have only one vertex selected.
    Does anyone have a solution or an explanation?
    I'm using a Macbook Pro with a dual core chip and 8GB of RAM, AE CS5, OS X 10.6.8.
    Thanks

    That's how I solved the problem, by reordering keyframes, and it works as planned. I was wondering if the graying out of the swiwtch has to do with imported paths.
    If I may ask pose a different but related problem here, when I draw paths (not as masks but as shape layers) in AE, copy and then paste them into a property such as position, I get a new layer and not a motion path. I do have the shape path selected in the timeline, but still get a new layer. Pasting in an open path made in Illustrator works in the same comp, however.
    Thanks

  • ICloud email won't send (it tries to send and then freezes, send button grayed out)

    I can recieve email just fine. I can draft an email just fine. But it won't send.  When I hit the send button, the email window goes away and a message box appears and disappears so fast I can't read it.  The email window reapears with the "send" button grayed out.  Once this happens, I can't close the email window.  I have to quit mail.  When I open mail back up, the email will still be there and I can close it.  The send button is no longer grayed out, but if I hit send, the same thing happens (i.e., screen flashes and the send button is grayed out).
    I've tried deleting the acouunt and reforming it.  Didn't help.  I checked to see that my outgoing server is "iCloud" and that it send on port 993 and the SSL check box is checked. 
    Any ideas?

    I'm having the exact same problem on one of my Macs but no the other.
    Did you ever get this resolved?

  • Address Book "Edit" button grayed out...unable to edit

    Had to edit a contact's info and was surprised to find the Edit button grayed out, not allowing me to click it. Repairing permissions has not helped.

    V.K., thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, before I got to try it, I re-launched Address Book one more time and found it will no longer launch. Its Dock icon just keeps bouncing. Not only that, but I've also found that iCal and Mail will no longer launch, either. The iCal calendar pane and the Mail main window open, but the beach ball spins forever. I've never seen this before. Any ideas?
    I tried a different account on the same computer. No problems there.

  • Data source active/inactive button grayed out in LBWE

    Hello,
    When I was activating the Logistics datasource in LBWE, my data source status became red and the Active/Inactive button grayed out? how can I make this data source active again?
    Thanks,
    KK

    Hi Kumar,
    The status will become Red and Active/Inactive is disable due to Extract structure activated but data source is not maintained. This happens once you change the extract structure to Include additional fields. Please do the below step:
    in LBWE, Click on Data source (Technical name of your data source beside maintainance) and you will get maintainance screen, change if you want some thing or else leave as it is and save, Now  the status for data source in LBWE will become yellow and activate/deactivate will enable.
    Regards,
    Kams

  • Cannot Approve Journal Batch (Button grayed out in More Actions screen)

    Cannot Approve Journal Batch (Button grayed out in More Actions screen)
    The Journal Batch Approval notification goes to one or more approvers but when any approver opens the journal and tries to approve, the approve batch button is greyed out and nobody can approve the Journal batch. The approver has every authority amount and other wise.
    Any idea what might be wrong? Do I need to setup something in Preference pages etc.,?
    Thanks for your help.

    Are you looking at the Workflow Notifications page or GL page. Please give me the navigation used to reach the page. Typically in workflow notification details page, the Response buttons are either displayed or hidden based on whether the notification has a Result Type attached or not. I don't think they are greyed out based on any rule.
    Workflow notifications does not check the approval authority by itself. Ann appropriate workflow notification with right content and result type should be sent based on the approval authority checked in a previous function activity.
    Thanks

    Sorry I gave this a 'this helped me' but after a long struggle I found some ticked box somewhere from some unauthorised chrome extension blaaa....... the link you gave was great, not only did it confirm all the bad things google is supposed to be up to it provided a better browser. Cheers man.
    Anyone who find this; I disabled all extension in chrome. I then searched the word proxy in the settings section. A button came up, "change proxy settings" I clicked on it. Earlier it was greyed out as an extension was interefering.. It brought up a box with my own settings from my computer. Then I clicked LAN settings, then unchecked the 'Use a proxy server' button.
    P.S. If you're using chrome, bail, and dowload Komodo Dragon. It's virtually identical, but you're not tracked, and you can use chrome extensions, and you can quickily transfer your chrome preferences into it.
