There is a very low-level corruption that can produce this symptom.

It's very rare, but the master section break at the end of the document can
develop a slight corruption.

When that happens, one or more if its property containers will turn 'read
only'. What you are observing is exactly the effect this can produce.

Since the corruption affects only one of the property containers, not the
text, everything else in the document works: it's just that you can't change
'some' settings. Just which ones depends on which container corrupted!

Copying into a new document replaces the faulty container, so it again
becomes read/write, and the document will then behave normally.

Word 2011 Mac - Most of ribbon and menu greyed out I do not know how she does it and I cannot figure out how to get it out of the state. To me it looks like there is some sort of modal, but I've used expose, and also cmd+` to switch windows in the application and I cannot find any modals. Format tab that appears on the right end of the ribbon, and then, in the Arrange group, choose Selection Pane. In the pane, select an item in the list. On the right side of the item, click the 'open eye' button. This action hides the object.

Hope this helps

I'm running Word for Mac 2011 and the Copy menu is greyed out. Command-C works. This is on OS X 10.11 El Capitan. My mother-in-law has the same problem and she's on 10.9 Mavericks (I think).
The issue was that the document was protected. I tried to insert an image of what you will see if you go to the Review tab and click on Protect tab, but the site would not let me, but you can see for yourself. If there document is protected, it gives you an option to unprotect where you will need to enter the password.
