Unable to access CMYK or RGB in form fields Text Colors

When trying to set the text color for my form fields, I get a screen showing a drop down menu set to "Gray Scale Slider" and the drop-down doesn't work to switch to CMYK.
Anybody know how to fix this? I've tried on all the machines (Mac) in my office, and none work.
I'm using OSX 10.6.6
Acrobat 9.4.1

I have the same problem.

Is there any way to select the CMYK colors?

With kind regards,

What about for other colors, such as the fill and border? All should work the same way?

Annotation colors are typically set with RGB. Are you able to set RGB? I'm using windows and I've never seen an option to use CMYK with a form field or markup, just RGB and HLS.
