  • 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?

  • Ipod set to manual, video options grayed out, no copying

    First, I was experimenting, which is why I am having the following issue. My ipod 30gig Video was formatted on Windows XP when purchased. I decided I wanted the new update, but to do that I had to get rid of everything and use the iPod CD to convert the iPod to a Mac format. I used PodUtil and copied every song and video purchased from Mac and stored them on my computer hard drive. The format to mac was flawless, even re-importing all the songs and videos into my iTunes library. I copied all the songs back into my iPod, no problems. Problem now...none of the Clone Wars, Avatar or other videos will copy to my iPod. I can highlight all of them , drag them to the ipod and get the green plus sign, but no copying occurs. Under iPod>options>videos, everything is grayed out. I can't choose anything. Under iPod>options>Music, it is set to manage playlists and music manually. So, how can I get my legally purchased Mac videos into my iPod now? Videos I have edited in Final Cut Pro and exported in the iPod format copy over flawlessly. For a tedious solution, I could import all the videos bought from apple into final cut pro and re-export them as iPod formats and then import the newly converted versions back into my iPod, but there is no garauntee that will work. Any ideas ?

    Hold down the ⌥ and ⌘ keys while connecting your iPod. Keep them down until iTunes has opened and your iPod shows in the Source list.

  • 30 GIG Video iPod, Video Options not available - Please help!

    Hi.
    I have a 30 GIG iPod Video 5th gen, with the latest iPod updater software installer on it.
    But when I look at the iPod preferences, when it's plugged in via USB, all Video options (manual vs automatic etc) are all greyed out and not available for selection.
    And I can't drag any videos onto the iPod (even with the right video format!).
    It's like the iPod itself doesn't recognised that it is an Video one, like it has a complex and can only deal with music and photos.
    Can anyone help or offer advice?
    Anyone had a similar problem?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for your help guys.
    Even with the iPod set to manual, I couldn't drag iPod format videos directly onto it.
    Did a factory restart, and it has fixed the problem.
    And just a note; the options in the video tab will always be greyed out, when the iPod is set to manually update songs.
    cheers!

  • 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

  • Quicktime Share Video Options Grayed out

    In Quicktime X, I do not get the options for sharing video for Apple TV or Computer, only get the Iphone option to choose. I was still able to convert and save it to Itunes though and see the video on Apple TV. Any ideas?

    +"No, brain-dead because the resulting movie will be smaller than the original..."+
    Not so. I recorded a program using iPlayer Downloader which resulted in a 236.2Mb .mov file. Using QT to share that file for uploading on to my iPod resulted in a 657.3Mb MPEG-4 file. This seems a standard occurrence. Another program (234Mb when downloaded) becomes a 635Mb file (when 'shared').
    Not good.

  • Trying to delete pages 21-24 on iPhoto book but "remove pages" option grayed out and pressing delete button not doing anything.  Help!

    Trying to delete pages 21-24 on iPhoto book but "remove pages" option grayed out and pressing delete button not doing anything.  These extra pages resulted from using Autoflow and now we can't seem to get rid of them.  Help!

    Good morning Old Toad.
    I did as you suggested:
    1) Booted from install CD.
    2) Ran Disk Utilities on internal hard drive--no repairs necessary. For good measure, did the same thing on external drive. Also no repairs necessary.
    3) Checked software update--no updates found. About this Mac said I was already running 10.4.7. For good measure, I downloaded the latest and installed it. Since it let me run the install, I'm not sure if I installed something new or reinstalled what I already had.
    4) I rebooted from CD, ran disk utilities, ran repair disk--no repairs necessary. Repaired permissions and a lot of permissions repaired.
    5) Tried to delete the files and the same old thing happened: kernel panic. The specific message:
    panic(cpu 0 caller 0x00102A08): jnl: transaction too big (1587712 >= 1572352 bytes, bufsize 8192, tr 0x29f1fb0 bp 0x2801de40)
    So there's no change in my status.
    I'm trying to delete the files because:
    A) They already take .5 Gb.
    B) I can't get rid of them ever. If I move the problem files to a different folder, I can only do one successful drag-and-drop backup to the external drive until the "new" thumb segments become unerasable just like the previous versions and crash the system.
    C) I can't even "just" drag and drop every file/folder except the thumbs, because that ends up crashing the system as well. So I have to drag and drop every file/folder in the iPhoto hierarchy individually. Which makes me less inclined to backup, which defeats the purpose of a backup.
    D) After the iPhoto fiasco I'm just crabby about all the Apple screw-ups I'm experiencing and I want to get them fixed.
    Thanks for your help. Any additional suggestions would be appreciated.

  • 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

  • Sip dialer port export option grayed out in configuration manager ucce 10

    Hi,
    I am configuring the outbound option for ucce 10, when i configure the sip dialer port (dialer conifguration) in conifiguration manager, i just added 5 ports, i can see this ports showing in dialer process on the PG, but i need to export this ports to Unified communication manager, i could not able to export it because this option grayed out (i did select all, or individual selection both are having export option grayed out)
    Any idea?
    with Regards,
    Manivannan

    Exporting port configuration is only allowed for SCCP, in SIP Dialer Deployment its actually not needed and that why its grayed out.
    //but i need to export this ports to Unified communication manager//
    in Sip Dialer you don't need to create any Port For Dialer under CUCM. its only required in SCCP.
    Sip Dialer port Directly registers with VG.

    9 hours??!

    iDVD encoding settings:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
    Short version:
    Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
    Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
    Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
    That was for single-layer DVDs. Double these numbers for dual-layer DVDs.
    Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned abo
    In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
    You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
    Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
    NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
    And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

  • Choppy video on big screens  PLEASE HELP!

    I've noticed that the videos that I have exported from CS3 are very smooth when played on a computer screen and average size tv screen, but are very choppy if played on a large TV or projected on the wall.  Is there a way to remedy this?  Please help!
    Drew.

    I think I figured out the issue.  Thanks for all your advice.  I'll repost if I have any other problems.

    Subject: Choppy video on big screens  PLEASE HELP!
    Drew,
    How is the large-screen projector connected, via a set-top DVD player to it, or by a computer connected to it? If it's via a set-top player, is it the same one used for the small-screen TV, or a different one? What is the make and model of the set-top player(s)?
    Also, what DVD media was used, and what was the burn speed used to create the DVD? Was this authored in Encore, or with some other authoring application?
    Good luck,

  • Paste as Background option grayed out

    I'm using Captivate1. When I edit a slide, I select Copy
    Background, edit it in Paint, copy it from Paint and try to Paste
    as Background into Captivate. The Paste as Background option is
    grayed out. It doesn't happen all the time. Sometimes I have to
    close the project and reopen it and the option is working. This
    time it doesn't work. There's nothing in online help about this so
    I hope someone in the forum might shed some light on this.
    Thanks.

    I started tracking what I was doing before the graying out
    occurred. It seems like if I copy and tweak (in Paint) more than 8
    or so backgrounds in a row, then the Paste as Background option
    grays out. It's like the system is tired of me copy and pasting
    back into Captivate. When I shut everything down and reopen it,
    then the paste memory clears and the option is available. Now by
    all means, this is not a technical explanation for what happens,
    but it's just what I'm observing.
    And yes, I'm patiently waiting for the powers that be to
    approve my upgrade to Cap2.
    Thx

    I just wanted to follow this up by saying that you were entirely correct in your diagnosis of the situation.  My computer did have the faulty part you linked to.  I brought my laptop in and specifically told them to run that test, had it fail and then argued with the person at the genius bar and the manager.  Eventually they offered to have it sent out and have everything replaced for free of charge.  They did so mainly because I had complained about graphical issues almost every other time I had come in with problems and no one ran the test.  They should have caught this problem during my warranty, but they didn't, even though I mentioned the problem.
    Anyhow, after having the part replaced, I haven't had my computer crash a single time since, or had many of the issues mentioned above.  I've never had this experience before.  Even brand new, I got occasional crashes.  Hopefully this new trend continues.
    I do find that web browsing is still incredibly slow.  Web browsers just chug along at a slow pace, even though I have great internet speed.  Maybe I'll try just deleting my web browsers and reinstalling them...
    Anyhow, thank you for your help and knowledge Clinton.
