As I grow older and have less energy to spare and my balance becomes more and more of a problem I generally just nod these days. Don't be put off.

Slight head nod or possibly an eyebrow raise for me. Actual wave seems like a lot of work as I grind along.

A nod is totally acceptable.

I try to make eye contact with people, when walking or riding. If they return the eye contact, I say hi or nod or give them a finger wave. Some people don't want to be bothered by strangers.

I usually feel a twinge of remorse when I don't return a wave. Usually that happens when I'm taken aback by a wave from a roadie whom I wouldn't expect to initiate one.

…Personally, I do wave, except where there are loads of cyclists, such as my early morning commute in downtown Boston. I’m not put off by a lack of response either…

I have given “finger waves” myself while pushing a shopping cart.

I've always been a big waver, I wave to all bikers, doesn't matter if you are pulling a trailer of kids or if you are looking like a hardcore roadie I wave. However, recently I've seen two different bikers riding cities bikes with flat bars, and AERO clip on bars attached, to me that's a step to far. I can't wave at such a person.
