I got a problem with my script
i need to make it like when you click on GUI button all players got disabled localscript from other gui
but i don’t know how to do that
i try’d my best but nothing and i need help with it
i just noticed that i type Enable except of Enabled but still it wont work

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	local Smaller = game.Players.MaxPlayers.PlayerGui.SettingsOpened.Things
	if script.Parent.TextColor3 == Color3.fromRGB(255,0,0) then
		script.Parent.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(0,255,0)
		Smaller.AcceptMusic.LocalScript.enabled = false
	elseif script.Parent.TextColor3 == Color3.fromRGB(0,255,0) then
		script.Parent.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255,0,0)
		Smaller.AcceptMusic.LocalScript.enabled = true
	end
end)

Anyone know how to fix this? And thanks you for trying to help me

You cannot access the client from server anymore due to Filtering Enabled.
You should use remote events in this case and there are very helpful tutorials out there on youtube

Also I would like to add that there are many errors in the script itself

It is “Enabled” not enabled

MaxPlayers is a property stating how many Players the current server can hold.

For this, you’ll want to integrate a RemoteEvent because not only are UIs cloned locally but any changes done on this client won’t replicate. Then on the server, you’ll want to iterate through GetPlayers and FireClient the RemoteEvent to tell the client to make their LocalScript Disabled.

For example:

--// LocalScript, inside Button
local RemoteEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").RemoteEvent

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    RemoteEvent:FireServer(script.Parent.TextColor3) --// Pass the color over to the server
end)

--// Script, ServerScriptService
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local RemoteEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").RemoteEvent

RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player, Color)
    for _, LoopPlayer in ipairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
        RemoteEvent:FireClient(LoopPlayer, Color)
    end
end)

From there you can put a callback to OnClientEvent of the RemoteEvent and set Disabled of the LocalScript to true.

Got some notices

from your code you are using enabled instead of Enabled

if its the server i usually do a loop so i dont have to do anything more complicated

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
         for i, v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
                  -- second hand lets get the smaller variable
                  local Smaller = v.MaxPlayers.PlayerGui.SettingsOpened.Things
                  if script.Parent.TextColor3 == Color3.fromRGB(255,0,0) then
                           script.Parent.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(0,255,0)
                           Smaller.AcceptMusic.LocalScript.Enabled= false -- we developers always use Enabled
                  elseif script.Parent.TextColor3 == Color3.fromRGB(0,255,0)  then
                                       script.Parent.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255,0,0)
                                       Smaller.AcceptMusic.LocalScript.enabled = true
                            end
                end
        end
end)

this code should be server-sided if it was local then we could just get player by game.Players.LocalPlayer
