How do you get the Menu Bar out of Fullscreen mode with Safari?

When I click on Full Screen mode to watch video the Menu Bar remains at the top of the screen. This just recently happened and its only with Safari because Firefox's Full Screen mode works as it should. I have read many forums with questions similar to mine but none have helped. Please keep in mind when you answer this question that it is NOT JUST WITH YOUTUBE. This is happening with every website that I use to watch videos. I suspect that the update had something to do with this because if memory serves right it happened the last time I updated.

Im sorry but I figured it out now. I hate when you figure something out right after you do something extreme like signup for a profile here and post a question. Well to those who want the answer all in one shot there are 2 solutions for me.
1. Make sure Safari is updated completely. You can check by clicking SAFARI> ABOUT SAFARI
Safari 5.0.5 gave me this problem but the new update is 5.1.2
2.Glims - Free ad on for Safari which enables you to view you window in COMPLETE full screen at all times, as well as maximise your window to fill all empty space (makes so you dont have to worry about accidentally clicking on your desktop which I do all the time lol). You can use this option once Glims is installed simply by clicking on
SAFARI> Full Screen
or
SAFARI> Maximise Window Size
By doing Full Screen mode you can then click on the full screen capability on the website you are on

  • How do you get the iTunes visualizer OUT of fullscreen mode?

    I'm using WhiteCap as a Plugin visualizer.
    I pressed CTRL+F once upon a time to put the visualizer full screen, now I'm finding it impossible to put it back.
    Whilst in the visualizer if I right click or press CTRL+F again, it closes the visualizer, and when reopened it's still full screen.
    I need it not-fullscreen to change the settings in WhiteCap.
    So how do I fix this?
    I don't want to Re-Install iTunes because I spend ALOT of time sorting my iTunes library.

    If you're running Lion, press the escape (esc) key to exit full-screen mode. Otherwise, provide more details, including the Mac OS version and the application you're have trouble with. A screenshot would help.

  • How can you get the schedule of a single reoccurring job with Restart ability in Redwood to pause when it has failed...?

    We need the Request Restart ability when scheduling a single reoccurring job in Redwood. Most of our jobs are scheduled in CHAINs which offers the Final Status Handler on Step level, and the schedule is "paused" when a job in the CHAIN has failed ( the next instance does not populate until the OP MSG has been Replied to) , and once the OPERATOR message is replied to, the CHAIN can resume running again ( desired ) . But we need this same ability when scheduling a single job not in a CHAIN. In our testing, we set up a job with Request Restart chosen on the Error , Killed and Unknown selections on the Restart Behavior Tab. But we found when a job is scheduled say once a day at 8AM, and when it fails, an OPERATOR msg appears allowing a Restart choice ( desired), but the next day's schedule also populates ( undesired) and we do NOT want the schedule to continue on yet because we need a chance to fix the error before the next insance runs for business reasons. So how can you get the schedule of a single reoccurring job with Restart ability in Redwood to pause when it has failed...?

    Hello Fran,
    You can wrap the job chain in a master job chain in the first step and set the final status handler there.
    You can also set the Restart Behavior to 'Stop Submit Frame', in that case you will have to resubmit the job once you are finished troubleshooting.

  • How can I get the menu bar?pressing Alt button does not show it, right clicking in a space in the tab does not show customize button.

  • How can I get the Menu Bar in P/S Ele. 9 to show in the organizer?

    The Menu bar IS in Edit.  Problem occured when I updated from XP to new computer w/ Windows 7.  There is a small rectangle where the menu bar usually is.  I can click on it and the menu bar opens vertically.  The rectangle can not be seen unless you stand up to locate it.

    The glitches and workarounds include:
    -          The Organizer’s menu bar (File, Edit, etc.) won’t show up. You can either set the Windows text size back to 100% (96 DPI), or you can set the Organizer option Edit > Preferences > General > Use System Font. With the latter, the results aren’t always the prettiest, e.g. the font in the Editor’s menu bar stays small, but the font in the dropdown menus gets large. But this workaround at least lets you keep the text size large so that you can read the text in all your other applications.
    -          The Advanced Dialog in the Photo Downloader won’t be available in PSE 8.  (That also occurs on short displays.) You’ll need to reduce the Windows text size to something less – how much depends on the resolution of your display.
    -          The Editor on Windows 7 can show a mouse cursor for some tools that looks like three distorted shadows of the true cursor.  You’ll need to reduce the Windows text size to less than 150% (149% works fine).
    To change the Windows text size/DPI of your display:
    XP: Start > Control Panel > Display or Start > Settings > Control Panel > Display.   Click Settings > Advanced.
    Vista: Windows Start > Control Panel > Personalization > Adjust Font Size (DPI).
    Windows 7: Start > Control Panel > Display. To choose a custom size, click Set Custom Text Size (DPI) on the left.

  • How do you enlarge the menu bar type on Macbook pro?

    How do you enlarge the type in the menu bar on the macbookpro

    Couple comments concerning this:
    You cannot make it larger.
    On My MacBook Pro it has a high resolution screen. 1152 x 720 resolution is not listed. if you think your type in the menu bar is small, you should see mine!
    I personally would never recommend anyone orders on with Hi-Res.
    No matter what resolution I use other than 1680 x 1050 ( max listed for my Notebook) the sharpness is not acceptable to me.
    Wrote to apple concerning the menu display along with numerous others and have been totally ignored.
    Norm
    Hi Norm,
    1. I've been researching, and, with a few exceptions which are not acceptable to me, I believe you are correct.
    4. I really have no choice, I have to reduce the res to see text.
    5. Apple does not reply to feedback, so don't feel ignored. I've also sent feedback and emailed Jobs, and maybe, someday, after enough of us do that, this will get "fixed." Meanwhile, I'm also often at 1152x720.

    How well do you know your way around Mac OS?
    you are going to need to boot into Recovery and reinstall the system.
    they should already be using TimeMachine at a minimum for backups
    If you need to erase the system drive AND don't have backups, then yes you could lose files.
    Also might want to shop for some drives to help with this /
    Install OS X to another external drive rather than on the laptop's so you can boot and work at backups and reinstall and repairs.
    Install or Reinstall Mavericks or Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because
    the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    OS X Mavericks- Erase and reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Erase and reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Erase and reinstall Mac OS X
    About TimeMachine backups and Recovery Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427
    http://www.apple.com/osx/recovery/
    OS X Lion and later let you:
    Start from OS X Recovery using your Time Machine backup disk. With OS X v10.7.3 and later, Time Machine backs up the Recovery System on your Mac to your backup drive as well. This lets you use your Time Machine drive to start up your Mac if needed.     OS X Recovery:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4718
    OS X Internet Recovery
    Mac models introduced after public availability of OS X Lion include the ability to start up directly from an Internet-based version of the OS X Recovery system. OS X automatically uses this feature when the Recovery System on the hard disk isn't available (such as when your hard disk encounters an issue, or when your hard disk has been replaced or erased). OS X Internet Recovery lets you start your Mac directly from Apple's servers. Starting up from this system performs a quick test of your memory and hard drive to check for hardware issues.
    OS X Internet Recovery presents a limited interface at first, with only the ability to select your preferred Wi-Fi network and, if needed, entering a passphrase. Next, OS X Internet Recovery downloads and starts from a Recovery System image. From there, you are offered the same utilities and options as a local Recovery System.
    Requirements for reinstalling OS X using Recovery
    Reinstalling OS X using OS X Recovery requires broadband access to the Internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the Internet from Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation
    If you use Internet Recovery to reinstall OS X, it installs the version of OS X that originally came with your computer. After installation is finished, use the Mac App Store to install related updates or later versions of OS X that you have previously purchased.
    What to do if the installer warns that no Recovery System can be created
    Some disk partition configurations may result in the OS X installer reporting that it could not create a Recovery System. In these situations, even if you are permitted to continue the install, you may want to quit the installation and create an external, bootable OS X hard drive with a Recovery System, first. You can continue your OS X upgrade on your computer's startup drive after creating an external Recovery System.
    Your storage device must have at least 13 GB available (after formatting) to install OS X Lion or later and a Recovery partition.
    These steps erase and reformat the storage device. This article instructs you on setting up a storage device to use the GUID partition scheme and the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format, which are required to install OS X and a Recovery partition on your external storage device. You should back up any important files that are on the device to a different drive.
    This procedure installs a version of OS X that is compatible with the Mac it was created with. Using this OS X system with a different Mac model may produce unpredictable results.
    Your computer's serial number is sent to Apple as part of this process to help authenticate your request to download and install OS X Lion.

  • How do I get the menu bar to appear on multiple displays without mirroring displays?

    I keep finding things about the new Yosemite update that I do not like. The most recent is that apparently you can't have a menubar on multiple displays, unless you mirror the displays. This does not work for me. I want to keep my thunderbolt display as my primary display, but I am working in photoshop on my Cintiqu and I can't afford to drag my mouse all the way back to the thunderbolt display every time I need to access the photoshop menu.
    Is there some sort of fix for this that I'm not seeing?
    If not I sincerely hope that the apple engineers fix this ASAP.

    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • How do you get the Find bar to not automatically close when a page is reloaded or when moving to another tab?

    Not sure if this is a bug or a feature. Is there any way to get it to work like previous versions? I spend way too much time re-enabling the Find bar over and over.

    You don't.
    Clicking on the player window will hide the controllers but clicking the arrow keys will make it appear again.
    Use QuickTime Player 7.6.6 instead.

  • How do you get the search bar back in the internet browser

    my internet browser shows my bookmarked pages, but not the space to type in websites, how do i get this to come back?

    Hmmm--doesn't sound familiar. I think you'll do better asking in the Safari forum here:
    Safari
    There are some authentic browser gurus there. Be sure to tell them the Mac OS version you are running as well as the version of Safari. You'll get faster help if they don't have to ask for those.

  • How do i get the menu bar back as it has disappeared somehow?

    so i dont have an address bar or the buttons for going back and forward amongst pages, tried looking through the firefox options but couldn't find anything to bring it back. also have tried right clicking on the tab bar and that doesn't bring up anything that can help.

    Check that you still have the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * Make sure that you have the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If you see other missing items in the Customize window then drag them back from the Customize window onto one of the toolbars.
    * If, in "View > Toolbars > Customize", you do not see that item then click the "Restore Default Set" button
