5d mkiv mode and menu problems

I Hi, I am having several problems . 1, Cannot change any settings in Modes other than Auto(which I know changes itself. And still does). Also cannot review Pictures in any other mode than Auto.. 2, Cannot access Menu from any mode other than Auto. And when I do some Menu Items are missing. Namely in wrench menu folder 5. All this page shows is "Multi Function Lock". The 5 other items are missing. Any ideas what has happened will be greatly appreciated.

Greetings,

Ensure the multifunction lock is disaled.

 

Put the camera into "M" mode and reset the camera to defaults.  Perform a reset of the Custom Functions as well.

 

Now, check to see if the menus are available.  

 

If this is a new or "new to you" camera, reading or revieweing the manual is a good idea too.  I'm always plesantly surprised of the things you can be reminded of.

It sounds like you have the Lock switch set on the camera. It is located on the bottom right side of the camera. Make sure it is in the left hand position to unlock the controls.
