I am trying to log an activity but the button is greyed out and not letting me add anything. I have logged out and back in but that is not clearing the issue. What is the trick here! Thank you.
Apologies for confirming this, however does the button change when you add content into the text box? The expected behavior is for the button to be grey until content is added.
If you can share screenshots with something typed in the box, that would be great!
I had the exact same issue - noticed that the Log Activity button gets greyed out when I maximize the Log (in my case, a meeting log). It gets orange again (and therefore active) when I minimize and type anything (even a space) after minimizing.
I just experienced this today. I created a new "Log email" activity, and I pasted content. I could not see the button, so I "maximized" it. The button was grey. I closed and tried to create a new one. The window opened with the button grey but the contents I had pasted in there. Like it thought it was empty but it was not. I simply typed an additional space, and the button was available. I erased the space, it was still active, and that resolved the issue.
So sometimes the control is confused and I believe it is deactivating the button thinking there is no content yet, even when, as in this case, there was content. FYI, I was confused as to why, when I clicked the X to close this "Log Email" it went away, but when I clicked "Log Email" again to try it again, the contents I had pasted earlier were still prefilled, but the button was still grey. Again, this is when I added a single space and deleted it again, and then I was able to save it.
Despite entering content I could not activate the Log Activity Button. It remained greyed out. I closed the window altogether and then reopened it and the contetn I had added was still there.
I eradicated the confusion HubSpot seemed to have by adding another single character in the content window (there were already thousands of characters) and then the Log Activity Button activated itself.
Essentially, I am seconding BrianBCT's method of resolution above, precisely. It's happeneed me twice now.

I checked with Hubspot Technical Support and it seems like it was a permissions issue. I was Super Admin permissions. But, I noticed that I was missing 'Service' permissions compared to my peers who didn't have an issue and had Service, Contacts, Reports, and Sales Professional permissions.
In the 'Contacts' section I am trying to Log Email. The date and time are set and I've published content. The 'Log activity' button is still grayed out. I've been using this feature just fine. I logged out and in. Perhaps I need to restart the computer. I'll try that meanwhile while I wait for a response.
I have seen a similar post where their issue is resolved but nothing in the post helped me trouble shoot.
Can you please share screenshots of where you are getting stuck, and confirm that the behavior is occurring across multiple browsers, through an incognito window, and after clearing your cache and cookies?
