Eclipse-Juno Undo/Redo Enable?

Quick question, how do I enable Undo/Redo in Eclipse-Juno?

I am using:

Eclipse for Mobile Developers
Juno Service Release 1
Build id: 20120920-0800

Even just typing some random text into the editor, Undo/Redo are grayed out and the keyboard shortcuts don't work. I can't work without an undo/redo. (God only knows how many times these have pulled my butt out of the fire.)

All I can find for an undo setting is:

Window->Preferences->General->Editors->Text Editors-> Undo History size.

It was a value of 200, I tried changing it to 1000.

I have tried Google and here on Stack Overflow. There is a similar question, but it wasn't how to enable the undo/redo. This was a clean install of Eclipse.

Is there an enable check I am missing someplace buried in these option screens I am missing?

I am using the Java perspective with the 'classic' theme.

My java -version reports

java version "1.7.0_10"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_10-b18)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.6-b04, mixed mode)

What am I missing???

If there is no solution, and this is a bug (and a really bad one at that) can I use my old 3.7 with the above version of Java? I am learning Java so I can write android apps, but I have not yet installed the SDKs yet.

Restarting Eclipse solved this issue for me. Before restarting Undo and Redo were grayed out, and Ctrl-Z did not do anything.

In Kepler version, the default shortcut became ctrl + y.
You can change it to ctril + shift + z.
I have changed it back to ctril + shift + z.

First of all an apology, I know this reply does not answer this post original question.

I'm writing this here since this question was the 3rd result on google when I was searching for the phrase 'eclipse juno redo shortcut', so, I thought it would be an OK place to answer that other question.

so, if you're looking for the keyboard shortcut for eclipse Juno redo function:

try ctrl + shift + Z
