Resolved- Microsoft Word: “This modification is not allowed because the selection is locked.”

Microsoft Word: “This modification is not allowed because the selection is locked.”

Microsoft Word: “This modification is not allowed because the selection is locked.

There are four possible causes to this problem:

1. The document is marked as final.
2. The document is protected.
3. You are using a trial of Office 2007.
4. Office 2007 has not yet been activated.

Document is Marked as Final

You will also be unable to paste into the document. If you hover over the Paste button under the Home tab, you’ll get this error message: “This command is currently disabled. This command is not available because the document is marked as final.”

The rest of that error message also points us in the right direction.

Click on the Office button (the circle with the office logo on it in the top-left corner) and go down to the Prepare sub-menu. In this sub-menu, you’ll see an icon next to ‘Mark as Final’ highlighted in orange. This means that it is enabled and the document is “finalized.” It won’t allow any changes to the document. It would be best practice to mark your document as final before you send it off to others for professional evaluation. This also makes the red (spelling) and green (grammar) squiggles under words go away as well as any marked changes throughout the document.

Besides the ‘Mark as Final’ icon being highlighted in the Prepare sub-menu you will also notice a small version of the same icon at the bottom of Word 2007 in the status bar.

In order to make changes, the document just needs to be “un-finalized.” Go back to the Office button -> Prepare menu and click “Mark as Final” to toggle it off. After that, the icon will now appear unhighlighted and the icon will be gone from the status bar.

Document is Protected

If you are still not able to edit the document, it may be protected. Switch to the Review tab and then hit the Protect Document button to bring up a small menu.

From that menu, choose Restrict Formatting and Editing.

Next to the document, a little window should pop up. If at the bottom, you have a Stop Protection button, click that. If you don’t see that button but instead see a ‘Start protection‘ button, you can close this little window. This setting is not the one locking your document. You may have to enter a password in order to modify the document. You’ll need to know the password in order to stop this protection.

Your trial of Office 2007 has expired.

If you’re using Office 2007 that came with your computer, likely it was only a trial and has expired. Try opening your document in the free Open Office or purchase a full version of Microsoft Office 2007. “If you have the Office Home and Student 2007 Trial preloaded on your computer, you can purchase the disc version and use the product-key to unlock and activate the preloaded trial.”

Office 2007 has not yet been activated.

If you’re seeing the problem in both Word and Excel, the problem is obviously Office-wide. Office 2007 may not have been activated.While you’re connected to the Internet, go to the Office button in the top-left corner and choose Word Options from the bottom of the menu.

From the new window that pops up, choose Resources on the left-hand side and then click the Activate button. This should either activate Word, say it’s already Activated (meaning this isn’t the cause of your problems), or provide more information about why it isn’t and can’t be activated.

You can also click the ‘About’ button to see the currently entered licensing information for Office 2007.

You might need to change the network settings, reboot require to re-connect netconnect,

" A Connection to the remote computer could not be established. You might need to change the network settings."

I have re-installed this application almost 10 times, and also pass modem query but still it's not getting connected,

Solution : -

Task1:
a) Go to User Account Control Settings. Type in UAC, or go to the System and Security applet. Click on the "Change User Account Control Settings" link.
b) BTW, you can also type in this command from the Run menu: C:\Windows\System32\UserAccountControlSettings.exe
To turn off UAC, move the slider to the Never notify position, and then click OK. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

Task 2)

1) In WIN7, goto Start > Control Panel
2) Click on the 'Trouble Shooting' option on the Control Panel
3) On the Trouble Shooting Computer Problems window, click on 'Configure a Device' option under 'Hardware and Sound'
4) Hardware and Devices dialog appeared. I clicked on Next button
5) On the next page, a message appeared that my WIN7 is not configured (may be for security reasons) to download drivers automatically and install. Rather it was configured not to install and driver!
6) I selected the option of automatically downloading the driver and and applied the change.
7) Rebooted my machine
8) Inseted the USM Modem of Reliance Netconnect BB+. On the lower right panel, a pop up appeared displaying 'Installing Drivers....'
9) I installed the software from the data card and then invoked the Reliance Netconnect window.
10) Now I could see the singal on the window and was able to connect.

I hope that this procedure should work guys having problem using NetConnect with WIN7 prof.

Resolved - windows 7 stuck on shutting down screen, Windows 7 hangs on 'shutting down' screen, shutdown issue, windows cant shut down

program and/or process can be from malware or can be legitimate (such as an invasive antivirus like Norton or McAfee). If you are using a Norton or McAfee product, uninstall it and replace with a better program such as NOD32, Kasperksy, or Avast (free). The Windows Firewall is adequate for most people. Shutdown issues can also be caused by old/poorly written drivers so make sure all drivers are updated, particularly on Windows Vista and Windows 7.

A. The first step is always to make sure your computer is virus/malware free.

B. If the computer is virus/malware-free, drivers are current, and no Norton or McAfee programs are installed, then do clean-boot troubleshooting to see which program/process is the culprit:

How to perform a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7 - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135

Step 1: Perform a clean boot

NoteIf the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from following these steps. We strongly recommend that you do not use the System Configuration utility to modify the advanced boot options on the computer unless a Microsoft support engineer directs you to do this. Doing this may make the computer unusable.

1. Log on to the computer by using an account that has administrator rights.
2. Click Start

   Note Following this step lets Microsoft services continue to run. These services include Networking, Plug and Play, Event Logging, Error Reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you may permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use the System Restore utility together with existing restore points.

5. Click OK, and then click Restart.
