Try changing the permissions on the theme’s directory to 766. If you still have problems, try 767, 775 or 777.

Thanks Esmi, tried that but the menu still looks the same. There is no option for edit the theme underneath the appearance tab…strange!
Why are you trying to edit the theme? What theme are you using? Where did you download it from?
Is file editing disallowed in your wp-config.php?
It’ll look like this: define('DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT', true);
It’s (in my opinion) a good thing to disallow any kind of editing on a live server. I personally blanket disallow it across all sites I manage. All editing, even for the most minuscule thing should be done locally and then pushed to the live server.
I´m using this one: http://graphpaperpress.com/themes/onesie/
Want to be able to change it.
Is the feature edit underneath appearance no longer valid in 3.9 or?

It works just fine in WordPress 3.9. Try asking your hosts to check if you have a folder ownership issue.
Thanks Esmi, talked to them they advised same as WPRanger. WPRanger, that solved it for me, all works perfect now.
