    Re: Inventor Studio greyed out

    Curtis, I appreciate your persistence in helping me out. That link you've posted was my first hope but it doesn't work with the 2013 version.

     

    My profile has admin privileges and no other profiles on my laptop. As stated before, I'm with two other teachers from my school who have the exact same model of laptop as I do with exactly the same specs but do not have this same issue.

     

    It's very frustrating as I'm now behind in my class because I've spent more time uninstalling and reinstalling Inventor or hunting down fixes for it.

     

    Many thanks to those who have made suggestions, Does anyone from Autodesk know what would cause it to not be accessible?

    Hi cplach,

     

    Unfortunately, I know where you're coming from with fighting hardware issues while trying to learn software.

     

    I think I would try creating another profile that also has full admin rights, just to rule out that your current profile isn't corrupt or something.

     

    After that, maybe start another thread on the installation forum:

    http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/Installation-Licensing/bd-p/24

    be sure to link to this thread so others can see what you've already tried, etc., and maybe link this thread to that one in case someone has the same issue in the future.

     

    I hope this helps.
    Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
    Curtis

    I had this problem with IV2012 Pro and now 2013 Pro. What I have noticed is that machines at my college which when opening a new assy that have 2x mold tabs are affected by the greyed out tools an cant access CC or Vault. The machines that dont have these 2 tabs are fine. The same machine with different users can work or not work and a user can change machine and go from working to not working or vice versa.

     

    If anyone has any ideas I would love ot know.

    Sounds to me like a different problem than the OP's.
    I would have started a new thread for this problem.

    We have a new install and have the same problem.

     

    Network/Server License

     

    Students - some get access to IV some don't, some see a greyed out AddiNS, some don't

     

    Staff - saw the Inventor Studio this morning but now don't see it !
