I have the Eurail pass for my family of 4 and I had uploaded all passes to the app with start date later this summer. Then I went to wesbite to book our seats for a train leaving on June 1st. However, all the times I selected won’t highlight “add to cart.’ Does that mean I’m trying to book too far in advance, but the schedule table is too far out? OR is it because there’s an asterisk saying there are limited seats? I have 1st class passes, is it not feasible to book for all four of us at once? TIA!

Yes, most likely it is too early to book. The booking windows vary considerably by country and company.

You should also read to this guide to seat reservations for passholders, in most cases the best and cheapest places to get them is not from Eurail. https://www.seat61.com/interrail-and-eurail-reservations.htm
