My guess is that you don't have anything set up in your .Mac preferences panel. Without the username and password, there is no access to the iDisk.

Also, the WebDAV option is also greyed out so there must be more to this.

You need to download 1.1 (sneaky peek edition) from sneaky peek builds

That happens when you don't have any database windows open. It would be reasonable to consider that a bug. :)

Ken, I do seem to have .mac (MobileMe - worst name in history) all set up. I check OF prefs again this morning, then upgraded to the latest sneakypeek, and it is working now. Mysterious, but working. Thanks.

Actually, I found the problem. I was using an OmniFocus file that I had saved somewhere other than the default location. When I restored "Revert to Database Backup..." then the sync was enabled again. The iDisk and WebDAV settings grey out if you don't have a database open from the default location.

On a related note, the grey out also occurs under certain sync attempt(s) that end up failing (IIRC, due to an improper path; I have my notes elsewhere). After about a minute, and then a failure dialog, the grey disappears.
