Hidden views of applications and Menu Bar

I have recenly loaded Mac OS X on to an older dormant G4 Digital Audio. I am using a 17inch VGA display. The problem is that the G4 thinks that there is useable screen area to the left of the current screen. That is, I can move my curser over to the left off the screen and pull open windows over to the viewable area by clicking and dragging. How can i turn off this extended wide screen and limit the G4 to operating in the viewable area on the current VGA display?
Powermac g4 digital Audio   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

That is normal behavior for the desktop. The extended areas of the desktop can be displayed if you have multiple monitors.

    I'D LIKE TO VIEW SAFARI WHERE I CAN STILL DISPLAY MY DOCK AND MENU BAR...DO NOT WANT FULL SCREEN.  HOW DO I DO THIS?

    You can also go up to "View," and look all the way down to "Exit Full Screen."
    Command+Control+f will toggle it off and on.

    Safari problem:  when I switch back into safari from another application, the menu bar comes up but no tabs or windows.  What's going on?  Just started yesterday.  I have found a workaround: when I Command Tab back to safari, I hit command T to open a new tab and Command W to close it, and my other tabs are visible.
    I have tried shutting down, closing tabs, with no success.  What's going on and how can I fix it?
    Thanks,

    PS:  I'm not sure of the actual OS level, but I have not allowed it to upgrade to Maverick yet; concerned about it because of a few things I've read...

    A Safari extension or third party plugin may be causing the menu bar issue.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
    As for which OS X is installed.
    Click the Apple () menu top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac.
    The version is noted there.
    v10.6 Snow Leopard v10.7 Lion  v10.8 Mountain Lion
    It's your choice whether or not to upgrade to Mavericks. If you decide to do this, make sure your Mac meets the requirements noted here.

  • Right part of menu bar and menu bar clock freezes.

    Right part of menu bar and menu bar clock freezes after a few minutes works. Happens every single session and seems to not be affected of what programs that are running.  There are other anomalities too, which seem to be somehow related, affecting my main software (Finale).  Keyboard Maestro and Time Machine are always running in the background.  Any ideas?

    Nope.
    BTW:  After restart, it all seems to work.  This seems to happen after the MBP has been taking a nap and in all following sessions.
    It's a 2 months old MBP, 8 gB RAM, all the newest updates on everything.

  • Adobe applications hidden underneath Apple OS X menu bar. I can't move the application window.

    I cannot move the Photoshop application window. It is stuck/hidden underneath of the Apple OS X menu bar. I can't see the maximize, minimize, etc buttons and I cannot grab the frame of the window to drag it around the screen. Extremely frustrating. I've tried reseting the the window, quitting the application and re-opening it, logging off/shutting down and rebooting, etc. Nothing works. Maddening.
    Help appreciated.

    Glad to see this solution still works. Thanks robrevel2
    NOT glad to see that this is still a problem under OS X 10.9.5 - I assume this continues to exist in Yosemite. It's great to see new features, but come on, how about some functional stability? I still occasionally lose the ability to toggle to hand tool with my spacebar.

  • After downloading firefox I lost toolbars and menu bar, I can't hit view then toolbar's because the file,edit,view ect..bar is not there? Help

    I down loaded firefox 3.6 and now I can't see any of my tool bar's or menu bar. Usually I can click on view then toolbars and check the ones I want to see. But the tool bar with file, edit, view, tool, ect.. is not visible. I have gone in and checked on my start up which show they are suppose to be there and locked on top. But they are not there.

  • Address bar and menu bar hidden unless I expand page and use the pointer

    I am a new user of imac.  Can you please help me - the menu bar and address bar and search bar does not show when I open Safari.  I can get it if I expand the page and use the pointer to point at the top of the screen.  This is the only way I can use it now.  I hope you can help I am not too savvy yet on this lovely machine.

    If you are using Lion OSX, they have implemented a full page feature for many programs.  If you are running it full screen (like it sounds like you are) then you just move your mouse up to the top of the page for those items to appear.  If you don't like full page, there is a button in the top right corner (it has 2 arrows pointing at each other) and you can click that and bring it back to the normal mode.
    Hope that helps.

  • Kids playing with computer, now the icons and menu bar fonts are huge, how do I change it back?  I tried in the view, but it didnt work.

    anyone know how to change font size of menu bar and icons

    Have you tried Command - (that's the key to the right of 0)?
    If that isn't it try Control - Command - down arrow key. You can turn the zoom feature on and off in System Preferences - Universal Access - Seeing.

  • Unable to view all the pdf menu bar in internet browser

    We are working on a web application where we have to provide options to users to edit pdf directly(like changing the text) and save to the server again. I installed acrobat professional on my machine to develop the code. But when i open the pdf in my web application(i.e Microsoft Internet Browser..) it is just showing few tool bars, but i need to load all the menu bars so that user can use all the menus which is available for adobe professional. Thanks for your help.

    When viewing a PDF in a web browser, one is using a special plugin for the web browser to read PDF files. I have the same problem when I have an Excel file opened in a web browser, there is no Excel menu bar or toolbars.  You might be able to add some JavaScirpt to the PDF to display the necessary tool bars.
    I always wondered why they call these internet viewers browsers.

  • Bluetooth disappeared from system preferences and menu bar...

    My bluetooth preferences disappearead from system preferences as well as the menu bar. I discovered this because my bluetooth mighty mouse stopped working. I tried replacing the batteries but nothing happened. I used my trackpad to click on the bluetooth icon on my menu bar and told it to connect to my mouse, which was there in the list. I got the swirling ball and so restarted my computer, when it came back, bluetooth was gone from the menu bar and system preferences, so now I don't know how to reconnect my mouse.
    I tried resetting the PRAM and NVRAM as recommended by another post, I tried it twice as the instructions outline, but I haven't had any success.
    I have tried doing spotlight for bluetooth in system preferences, this takes me to keyboard and mouse, then I get this message:
    "The Bluetooth tab of Keyboard & Mouse preferences is hidden because you don't have a Bluetooth module installed or attached to your computer."
    When I do a spotlight on the entire system, I get a result for bluetooth in system preferences, when I click on that, I get this message:
    "You cannot open “Bluetooth” preferences pane because it is not available to you at this time. You might need to connect a device to your computer to see this preferences pane."
    But, the irony is, that I can't connect a bluetooth device without this option in preferences. Also, in utilities, I remember that there used to be a bluetooth setup assistant, and that is not longer there.
    I realize other threads have come up on this, but I haven't found anything besides deleting the plist, restarting, and resetting the PRAM and NVRAM (whatever that is). I've tried this but haven't been successful so I'm looking for more ideas.

    HI Daniel,
    Try deleting this file.
    com.apple.preferencepanes.cache
    ~/Library/Caches.
    Move that file to the Trash and restart your Mac.
    If that doesn't help, download and install the 10.5.8 combo update available here.
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate
    It's ok to do this even though you are already running 10.5.8.
    Make sure and repair disk permissions after the installation.
    Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • How to open a new browser window without toolbar, location, and menu bars from AIR?

    I have the following problem in my Flex+AIR application. I need to embed an ActiveX component that has JavaScript API inside my application. I tried to embed it inside <mx:HTML> component but unfortunately, AIR doesnot support plug-ins or ActiveX controls. So I've decided to open it in a new browser window. I tried navigateToURL(...) method but it has two problems - it is opening a new tab in the existing browser window and there is no way for me to configure the new browser window appearance, like removing toolbar, menu bar, location bar, etc. Then I tried to open a new window from JavaScript running inside <mx:HTML> component using window.open(...) API but it doesn't open a new window at all.
    Is there any way for me to open a new browser window without toolbar, location bar, etc. (which will run ActiveX control, so it cannot be AIR window) from inside AIR?
    Best regards,
    Arkady.

    Is it possible to open a new browser window using JSP?a JSP page is also an HTML page, this is client side stuff, you can do it with JavaScript.
