Facing the same problem than horizonz in my site http://www.automationfan.com
Any solution for that?
Interesting thread about the issue here.

It appears I may need to wait for another ~5 hours for a full 24 hour cycle to be sure it isn’t working.
Google will also withhold demographics info if there is a possibility that it may reveal an individual’s private information (age, race, etc.) — though that doesn’t appear to be an issue with my site.
I was concerned the plugin wasn’t working because I received an error from google stating: “Your Analytics tracking code does not include the necessary support for the Demographics and Interest reports.”, but it seems like this has been confirmed as a validation issue on Google’s end and that the current solution is simply to select “skip validation” and wait a full 24 hours.
Edit: Also, for anyone who may read this in the future, check and make sure you don’t have more than one google analytics tracker running on your website. The thread linked above goes in to much greater depth (and shows solutions), but basically if you have more than one tracker running simultaneously, none of them will work.
If I continue to have the issue later tonight I’ll update this post, but as of the moment I’m going to assume that demographics information simply hasn’t been updated in my analytics profile yet.
Hi,
Thank you for your posts, I hope that anyone with the same issue can fix it reading this.

Does this plug-in have the “one-line one-time change” to the tracking code built in? I could have sworn when I first started using this plug-in that I had to check a box to ask it to track demographics. But now (with a new site) I am not seeing that as an option.
