I have a textbox at the top of the page that has a lock icon in the lower right corner. I click on the box and no menus or options are available. No changes in right-side window, either. I need to edit the box. How can I access it again? Thanks for any assistance.

Select the box on the slide and then look in the timeline layers to see which item is selected there.  One of the icon columns has a lock symbol.  Your TEB is probably locked there. Click the symbol to unlock it.
