Open terminal and type:
gksudo gedit /etc/apache2/
type in your password and then you can edit the file.
It's a system file, that's why you need sudo (root) rights to be able to edit it.
Instead of sudo you have to use gksudo because you are opening a GUI application (gedit) with root rights.
Can you help with this problem?
