Unable to click in the toolbar area in Excel

I have a user in our corporation who is unable to click in the toolbar menu while using Excel. He could be working on one sheet all of a sudden not be able to click. He will open another document he can click in the toolbar menu. 
He also says that if he minimizes it and maximizes it, it will then work. This seems to be random and a little frustrating. 
Anybody have any ideas?

  • How do I rotate a video clip in iMovie when I am unable to click on the Cropping Button in the Adjust menu?

    Can you help me rotate my video clip in iMovie ?  I followed the instructions in the Help menu, but was stuck on Step 3  - after I had selected the entire Clip and then was unable to click  on the "Cropping Button". 

    Are you in the timeline? You can't access the crop button if the clip is in the browser.

  • Acrobat freezes when clicking on the toolbar.

    Not sure if this is the right part to post this, didn't see a troubleshooting section.  But whenever I click on the toolbar buttons in Acrobat X, it freezes on me.  I have to do ctrl+alt+del and go to the task manager to be able to use it again.  I have made sure all updates are installed and did a uninstall and reinstall and the problem still happens.  Is there a setting I may have to change to stop this from happening?

    Can you let us know what version of Acrobat (point version), Word, and Windows you're using?

  • I have chosen a persona, but when I start up Firefox, Mozilla start page with Google shows, and persona is just barely visible only in the toolbar area. How do I get the persona to show, and not Google start-up page?

    I checked out the Mozilla Personas, saw one I liked, and added on. When I start Firefox, the Mozilla start-up page shows as usual with Google on it. The Persona I chose barely shows, and only in the Toolbars area at the top of the screen. Can I modify the start-up page to not show Google, and access Google another way, so that my Persona will show on the whole start-up page?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I added-on Persona

    As you can see from the [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Using+themes+with+Firefox using themes with Firefox] article, personas are "''lightweight themes that can change the color scheme and background image of the Firefox toolbars''" and they wouldn't change the webpages.
    If you don't like seeing Google as your home page you might want to look at [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page how to set the home page] and change it.
    Finally Firefox 3.5.x will be maintained with security and stability updates until August 2010, so you might want to [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Updating+Firefox update to a newer version].

  • My computer freezes when clicking on the submenu area in the property inspector.

    It's simple enough to build a horizontal menu bar. I have no problem clicking on the menu items and typing in my titles, but when I click on the submenu area, all I get is the never-ending spinning beachball. (I'm on a Mac Powerbook, OS X 10.5.7 and using Dreamweaver CS3). I have to force quit and relaunch Dreamweaver.

    When I click on the record button, Logic 8 pauses for more than a minute before starting audio recording normally. The external hard drive where my project files are saved becomes "very active" during the pause and then works normally when audio recording starts.
    At a guess I'd say - is your external drive Mac-formatted or PC formatted? Seeing as you were using Sonar, you've obviously come from the PC. You should not use FAT drives, you should format them to the native Mac format.
    All my external drives are also used with Windows so they have the Fat32 format.
    Ah. There you go.
    See:

    500 to 600 MB each file. Are these normal project files sizes with Logic?
    "Normal" is entirely relative. Some people's projects are much smaller. Some are much larger.

  • My toolbar has completely disappeared. I still have the back arrows on the far left, but everything else is just ... gone. I've tried stopping Firefox and restarting several times, but nothing is changing. All the toolbars are checked in the view menu.

  • Unselect Spark List when clicking in the empty area?

    Hi there.
    I'm wondering if it's possible to unselect a Spark List when clicking in the empty area?
    I've attached this function to the list's click event:
    protected function list_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
        list.selectedIndex = -1;
    But the list gets unselected even if I click on a item in the list. Is there a way to prevent the event when clicking on an item?
    Thanks a lot!:)

    Hi
    It's because the event bubbles all the way up. You have to explicit stop the event doing so.
    You can do it within an "item_clickHandler(ev:Event)" where you can stop propagation via the Event stopImmediatePropagation or stopPropagation methodes...

    The '''''Yahoo! Toolbar''''' and the '''''Babylon''''' extension have been reported to cause that problem. They seem to invisibly extend downward over the top of the web page display area. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

  • I closed the toolbars and cant figure out how to turn them back on, when i have atleas one of them open if i left click on the toolbars i can open or close more of them but if none are open i don''t seem to have that option...

    how can I get the toolbars including the address bar open again

    In Firefox 3.6 and later on Windows you can hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu on a toolbar.
    Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
    Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

  • Why the Tabbar and the toolbar are so high? What a waste of the space of the screen?

    For the new version of the Firefox(29), the height of the tabbar and the addressbar or toolbar is much bigger than before, not mention the new IE11. This is a big waste of the space of the screen, espicially for those who using a small laptop with an 16:9 screen which the height of the screen is not enough already.
    So please change this, and try you best to give more screen space for the web content, not your software.

    Thanks for you answer. The old GUI also had the issue I mentioned. I don't know why there isn't any configrations for the GUI, let users can change the height of the bars for them own faver, all of the designs are too waste space. Firefox should really start to study the designs of the GUI of IE11.

  • Saving a Adobe Pdf so the toolbars are not viewable and as a jpg without blurry images.

    Hi I have recently purchased a copy of Adobe Acrobat Pro 11 for the first time. I used to create all my documents in Word and then save as a PDF. When hen opening the PDF it would just show the PDF document without toolbars etc. Now when I open it I can see the toolbars (is that normal or is their a clean way I can save this document to share with fellow workers? I don't want it to be editable so not worried about the toolbars etc.
    When sharing this do they see the toolbars etc.?  I don't know the right terms but I want it to look clean as in a book.
    Also when trying to save as a jpg it's all blury? any ideas what I am doing wrongs.

    Which software were you using previously to open the PDF file?
    Also, could you post a screenshot of the previous and the current view of the document screen?
