Hi all! A stupid question, but a big problem...

I want to animate the famous ANDY model ( http://www.highend3d.com/maya/downloads/character_rigs/dl-4697.html?loc=AndyRig_v1.4.6.zip ).
The problem is that I can't move the hands, the fingers, the back... When I select the arrows for animate hands, i.e., they are blocked... the 3 axes appear grey and unmovable. A lot of rigged models have this "problem". What is the right workflow to animate the blocked parts?
Thanks to all...

More than likely you're in FK mode. You'll have to rotate the controls. The fingers in Andyrig are all done via attributes on the fingers control circle and no amount of moving manipulators round will help you there. Just select the attribute names and middle click-drag in the viewport for lovellly instant feedback.
