Why are the options grayed out??

Why are the majority of my edit options grayed out. I cant copy and paste

OK. So we've established that you're in Photoshop CC on Windows 7 (nothing to do with Acrobat or Acrobat Reader).
What exactly are you trying to do in Photoshop CC? Can you outline in detail what steps you're taking and what's confusing you?

Why are the brushes grayed out

I am having a hard time using brushes in Aperture 3. When I imported photos from iPhoto....and then go to edit these using brushes....all the options are grayed out except for the retouch option. Help!

It's likely that you have 'Preview' enabled, click 'P' and it should be good to go.

Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5? I want to choose "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net" but Firefox won't let me.

In the previous version of Firefox one could choose to save tabs so that when Firefox opened, all the tabs from the previous sessions appeared. This was done in Settings > Options > General > Startup. In the menu for the "When Firefox Starts" one had the option for "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net." in Firefox 5.0, this menu is gray and not clickable. Help, please?

''Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5?"
Possibly you are not saving your "browsing history" which is what the session history is tied into.
'''Not saving History''' -- check your settings for '''Tools > options > Privacy'''', make sure you are not clearing more than just cache in "Settings for Clearing History"
* http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4928/clearcachew.png
* clearing your history at end of session, cache is the only one you would want to clear at end of session, if you don't want to lose things
There are several things that are related to private browsing and not saving History
* Private Browsing Ctrl+Shift+P
* You selected "Never remember history" in first drop-down of Tools > Options Privacy and all of the check marks disappear (See picture above)
* "Permanent private browsing mode" was check-marked under "Use custom settings for history" in the first drop-down of Tools > options > Privacy (see picture above)

HT201240 why are my users grayed out? I cannot edit the users

Why is the display grayed out? andhow do I increase the contrast?

I just "updated" from Firefox 3.6.27 to 17. The new look is impossible for me to work with. Everything is faded out, grayed out, no color contrasts...... I tried to find a persona/theme to change this, but the page displaying the persona/themes is so faded out I can't tell what I'm searching for. Isn't there some way to turn off this faded out hazy style?

The setup is the default that comes with Firefox 17. If I could find any settings to increase the contrast I would have done so already. This blue/gray mess is really hard for older computer users. Every thing was just fine thank you, in Firefox 3.6.27 Well, up until they started messing around with forced plugin update checker. Then it started crashing every few minutes, until i gave in and installed this worthless piece of trash Firefox 17. I don't want to live in a blue/gray haze. I want color differentiation and lots of contrast. And I want all the tool bars and address bar above the page tabs. Meanwhile if I go to get an add-on that will change the color scheme, it gives me thousands, but they are faded out. Apparently Mozilla no longer offers add-on that are compatible with the current browser.

Why is transcode option grayed out ?

I want to set in/out in .avi files but Prelude CC keeps transcode grayed out .
What is happening ?

What version of Prelude and Adobe Media Encoder do you have installed?
Also, is the transcode option disabled in the Ingest Dialog for you or in the Export Dialog? Sounds like you want to perform and partial ingest but want to verify.
Prelude checks for the presence of a compatible AME. If found, the transcode option should be enabled.
One last thing to verify, be sure you have the Transfer Options section enabled in the Ingest Dialog. That's required to enable the transcode options contained within that section.
Thanks,
Michael

Why are duplicate titles grayed out but shown downloading?

I have an album downloaded from iTunes that shows duplicate titles of each song when looking on my iPod Music on my computer. These titles are grayed out and include the downloading symbol. I have deleted them several times but they always come back. What is going on?

Ann, thanks so much for trying to help me. I'm a novice and you might just want to give up....
I'm using CS4, have installed the contact sheet II feature since I was familiar with it. Just now tried your suggestion and was able to get all 9 pix as far as output preview in Bridge.
Here are the instructions that I'm following and had followed once before successfully while using CS:

Why are the buttons faded out (cant use them) on mobile device details?

Good Afternoon
I am having a little trouble figuring out why the buttons are faded (cant use them) on the: User Mailbox -> Mailbox features -> Mobile Device Details. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Andy
This option is greyed out only for one user or its for all users ?
Do you have any MDM in place for managing the active sync devices ?
Have you tried disabling this feature through Powershell ?

In iTunes under my device, under the apps tab, Why are all the options shaded out? I cannot make any changes, select any apps or do anything with the apps. I was able to load a few apps and sync but cannot sync anymore to my phone.

Hi,
( I search for iChat questions when I have finished in the iChat Forum)
So the menu bar reads iChat, File, Edit, View, Buddies, Video, Window and Help
There is no Buddy List open.
There is no other window for iChat open.
In the iChat Menu you only have access to Status.
Is an item ticked in the list ?
Is this a green (Available item) or Red ( an Away one) ?
Can you access the Accounts option ? (Sitll in the iChat Menu)
Is anything in here ticked ?
In the Window menu any Logged in account should appear in the list (Between the Next Chat and File Transfer items)
It would be useful to know which version of iChat this is.
If no account is ticked (iChat Menu > Accounts) or not showing in the Window Menu, plus you cannot determine the Status and you cannot access the Preferences then you need to access your Home Folder/Library/Preferences
As the Library in the Home Holder is Invisible in Lion you will need the Finder's Go Menu > Go to Folder option (you can use it in earlier OS versions if you want)
Type in:-
~/Library/Preferences
Find the file called com.apple.ichat.plist
Drag it to the Trash and Restart iChat.
This will lose all the settings in iChat that you have changed from Defaults but there is no way around this.

Why is the email option grayed out from iphoto sharing

I am running iPhoto 9.5.1 on Mavericks. When I select a photo and try to share it the share menu has email and all the social meida options grayed out. Checking accounts in iPhoto my email accounts are there. I tried deleting and reinserting the one I want to use and restarting iPhoto, but it is still grayed out.

You need to update yoru profile - it says OS X 10.6.8
In the iPhoto preferences select an email client (I personally prefer Mail) and if you are using iphoto enter your email information in teh accounts tab (If you use Mail it will use yuro existing sset up)
Same for social media - enter your account information in the accounts tab

Why are the songs that I downloaded from my pc not playing on my iphone and grayed out?

Hi sweatt,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
You may find these steps helpful for resolving the issue you're encountering:

Choose File > Get Info.
In the Summary tab, locate the Account Name field in the right column and write it down.

Why are the adobe pdf presets grayed out in photoshop?

Why are the adobe pdf presets grayed out in photoshop? I'm trying to save an image to "Press Quality" as a pdf and the settings are grayed out.

Maybe a screenshot of your Photoshop working area with the image opened, image tab and the layer panels showing might give us an idea. I can't guarantee that I can help, but someone might be familiar with the situation.
Also a screenshot of the Save as Adobe PDF and the PDF settings dialog as separate shots would also help as well. That way we see what you see.

My ipod nano 6th gen fell out of my pockey and the screen cracked badly, is there any coverage for this under warranty? I just bought it a month ago. If not what are the options for getting it fixed

My ipod nano 6th gen fell out of my pocket and the screen cracked badly, is there any coverage for this under warranty? I just bought it a month ago. If not what are the options for getting it fixed? It is pretty frustrating, it fell from about 3 feet out of my pocket and now looks like it was beaten by a hammer.

he advises restarting by inserting the OSX disc and pressing down the C button to reboot from there then selecting disk utility, hard disk and repair.... Does he mean me to hold down the C key on the alpha keyboard or the ctrl key?
Should I just ask for my money back??? If it is a simple repair do I just literally push the disc in, push the power button and hold down the C button?
That's where I would begin, too, with
Repair Disk
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.TStatus of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it saysanything but Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need touse autility like TechTool Pro,Drive Geniusor DiskWarrior
First we need to determine if the issue you are experiencing with the computer is software or hardware based. Once we have gotten things sorted out there should be time enough to make you decision about keeping or returning it.
