Send button is grayed out when I create a new message, but not when I answer.

Send button and the spell check button is grayed out - as are the format and insert menus - when I create a new message. When I reply to a message, all the buttons and menus work. If I start to answer, but change the beneficiary, subject to line and insert a completely new message, I can send it.
TBird worm 31.4.0 (installed recently. The question could have started with this installation, but I'm not sure.)
Windows 7 Pro, Version 6.1, Service Pack 1
Gmail configured according to the instructions from google.

and the Send button becomes active when you actually address your mail (you can not send mail without address)

The spell check button has no content to check, so it does not work until you start to type in the body of the mail.

Even with the insertion, and menu format if you insertion point is not in the body of the email that they do not have a destination to work with.

  • MASTERED OPTION IS GRAYED OUT WHEN YOU TRY TO BURN A HOME PC PREM BRAND NEW VIRGIN DVD + R ON VISTA 32-BIT

    Due to virus I had to rebuild PC using the RECOVERY partition on hard drive. All windows updates have been applied to date (August 2011). Before the virus problem (July 2011) WAS able TO SELECT THE "MASTERED" OPTION WHEN YOU are GOING to USE WINDOWS TO BURN a VIRGIN DVD + r. NEW once AGAIN, this WORKED BEFORE, NOW THE MASTER OPTION IS GRAYED OUT.  I have a brand new DVD + R blank and tried several of them thinking it was the disk (I've used this same brand (magnavox) DVD + R 4 years now never this problem of the "controlled" option is grayed out.) I use the same DVD burner which came with the PC and it allowed me to select the option "Mastered" last month (July 2011). I am using Windows HomePrem 32-bit OS (originial system that came with PC and this allowed me to select the mastered option last month. I applied all the updates Win at present. I have no other problems with the PC. Once again, driving the nail: this WORKED BEFORE, last month on the exact same hardware and the software/OS (Juillet2011), then why this option appears GRAYED out now?  This question has been asked before and 'experts' simply stressed totally USELESS MS pages showing how to select either under control or direct - I DO NOT NEED THIS HELP as I ALREADY KNOW HOW TO SELECT either option and what each is for. Also the other 'fixed' DOES NOT APPLY to this situation. (Do NOT send me to the following links because they DO NOT ANSWER to THE QUESTION: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-hardware/burn-a-disk-mastered-is-unavailable-grayed-out/9eb41f09-1778-e011-8dfc-68b599b31bf5?page=1&tm=1312314316719#footer or http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-sound/mastered-format-option-grayed-out/aee1469f-1095-436c-9f12-acce80c2bb99.) These 2 links DO NOT ANSWER THE QUESTION, so answer the question, do not send us in circles, always looking for the answer.  How SIMPLY THE QUESTION IS: Fix us the radio button for 'Mastered' so that it is NO LONGER GRAYED OUT when you insert a brand new, clean the DVD + R in my DVD burner (same that I had for years, which worked before) on my Vista 32 bit OS HomePRem? I have a host of (222 blank GB) of disk space and a lot of RAM (4 GB) and again I WAS able TO select the "mastered"option before my restoration." Help!

  • The send icon is grayed out. This happened after a crash. Tried all the suggested solutions

    I wrote an email and had just checked out. Thunderbird crashed. When he returned to the top, the send icon is grayed out (as well as spell checking. I ran through all the suggestions of assistance (including the deletion of the profile). The computer with which I have a problem is Lion 10.7.5. I also have it on 10.6.8 (snow leopard). I'm about to give up and start to use this computer (10.8.5) for mail - pain in the... of having to go all!

    Take a look and make sure that your accounts are always appear in settings.

    Tools menu > accounts settings... It could be something is just rubbish following the corruption caused by the accident, but I think it would be pretty obvious simply scroll through the account settings if they look like junk.

    The standard weather app on my iphone 6 has stopped working.  It shows just my wallpaper grayed out when I try to access.  The app can be restarted or deleted and reloaded?  If so, how?

    No, the soft part of the operating system, so it would mean reload the iOS together. Have you tried a forced reboot yet?

    Close all open applications by double-clicking the home button, and then drag to the top of the application window until it disappears from the screen.

    Reset your device: press and hold the home button and the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black, and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)
