I have no issues:

make sure that you're picking a ponit to create the pattern around.

 

Also make sure that you've clicked the axis select button to ensure you're not still selecting geometry.

 

That's all I can think of... hope this helps.

I have made sure that I have an appropriate center point, but the no. of entities & degrees is not illuminated. In addition ok is not illuminated.

Once again is it possible something is turned off

I can't think of any settings that would disable your ability to use this tool. Any chance you could attach a part file that we might try it out for ourselves?

 

If you're following all the steps appropriately, I'm completely baffled as to why it's not working.

What you describe is what happens if you have no geometry selected to pattern.
