can you please tell me how to change my status

Try clicking on your status in the sidebar. :)

also, if you have the shoutbox widget make sure it's minimized when you go to change your status.

i have done that and still notting

Do you have Javascript enabled? For example, can you switch from dashoboard to events and vice-versa? Also, it might require some time to update.

Stupid question, you DID press enter after entering the status, right?
