When I add a new item (sphere, cube etc) the lower left hand editing box is no longer activated....it is clouded over and unresponsive. For example: I add a UV Sphere but can no longer change the segments, rings, size etc. It was working in the past which makes me wonder if I have inadvertently turned it off....I have closed and reopened Blender but cannot rectify this issue.

There should be a litte + sign at the bottom, try to click on it and drag it upwards. – p2or Jul 31 '15 at 16:06

in 3D view, use T to make the toolshlef appear/disapear.

You can also use F6 to get the specific toolbox for new objects

1T key is fine but the area at the bottom is greyed out and unresponsive....I have MacBook Air and have activated the top number row but F6 does not work.....any other ways? – Gavia Jul 31 '15 at 16:19

you'd better try to load factory settings from file menu, you probably did something wrong. – Bithur Jul 31 '15 at 16:26

be careful when you install addons or change settings, always check if the problem comes back – Bithur Jul 31 '15 at 16:51
