Default can't update fields

I am sure (i.e. I hope) this is an easy to solve problem: I can't update my
fields to reflect changes in my TOC. F9 won't work and when I right click
next to it, the UPDATE FIELD is shaded. PLEASE help me. The pages are off by
one number and I can't get the TOC right.

Any chance you've locked the field? When you right-click, is the unlock
field command available?
