Uhhhh..... I might not be the smartest person is the world (might?  I *know*
I'm not) but your solution only makes me want to re-ask the question. All of
the Grab services are turned on in my preferences (as a check, I turned them
off, checked them, turned then on again, checked them,etc.) and no 
matter what I do they're still greyed out (if I turn them all off then
the Grab entry under Services vanishes).  Can *you* get them to blacken?
i.e. become active.  Can anyone?  or is Grab just "services impaired"?
