Aperture 2.0 missing Help Menu items?

Does anyone else have Aperture Help missing from the Help Menu in the app? The only thing in my Help Menu is "Create Support Profile...". Seems odd that there wouldn't be access to online help for the app here.

Thanks! Yes, they're currently at the top of the date sorted list found at:
http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/.
Oddly enough they don't yet show up in the Aperture specific manual list:
http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/aperture/
I assume whoever uploaded the PDFs forgot to tag them fully. They'll be fixed as soon as someone spots the mistake .
I assume they'll be distributed with full version. It's a bit odd that Aperture 2.0 doesn't use Apple's Help too. Aperture 1.x had the same odd behavior, but I figured it would get fixed with 2.0. Help is much nicer than PDFs.

Update doesn't fix missing help menu?

Downloaded the latest update hoping to find that the missing help menu had been fixed, but I guess not. It seems that this should be available to those that downloaded Aperture 2 (.0.1 now) just like those who got the box. I have downloaded the help manual pdf, but don't know how to get it to show up in the program help menu.

what so funny about it especially for me as a native German:
now for years we have a pest called 'Deppenapostroph'(=dummy's apostrophe): you see anywhere Karsten's Diner, Karsten's Barbershop, Karsten's Applestore - which is wrong in German (Karstens Diner...)
so, funny enough, obviously we were able to export that apostrophe-too-much into your language .. in the new version of 'loss of its' .. how about her's and hi's?

Help menu items not available Logic Pro 9

I think this problem occured after upgrading to Mavericks. When I use the help menu in LogicPro9 and click on the most relevant keywords that I have typed I am presented with a dialog that indicates: "The selected topic is currently unavailable. The topic you were trying to view could not be found."
I think this may be related to Spotlight not being indexed properly. After having problems re-indexing Spotlight I finally realised that in order for Spotlight to re-index correctly I had to add my permanently installed SD card to the Spotlight Privacy eclusion list. Instead of Spotlight taking 5+ hours to re-index a fast SSD it now did it in about 10mins.
I am now confident Spotlight has re-indexed successfully.
But the help menu items are still "unavailable"
OSX 10.9.1
MacBookPro Mid 2012
Logic Pro 9.1.8

I'm still putting this question out there to anyone who can help solve this problem. After trashing the Logic Pro9 App from the Finder>Applications I visited the Mac App Store and under the Purchases icon I re-installed Logic Pro9.
The Help menu is still returning:
"The topic you were trying to view could not be found." when clicking on the suggested returned results in relation to my search keywords.
I know there are better resources out there but I find it handy to use the help menu instead of reaching for a book or website/weblink.
Eventually I will switch to Logic Pro X but as Lennar Digital is still finalising their 64Bit version release of Sylenth (popular soft synth) I will wait until that is completed later in the year.

With 3.6.12, Help menu item "For Internet Explorer Users" results in a "Page Not Found" error. Is this a known bug? Is it being addressed?

Clicking the 3.6.12 Help menu item "For Internet Explorers" item results in a "Page Not Found" error.
The URL of the resultant page is https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Windows%20start%20page?as=u
Is this a known bug, if so, is it being addressed? If so, someone needs to work faster.
If it is not a known bug, someone needs to get right on it - you want people to switch to Firefox and then there is this bug -- not a good way to impress Internet Explorer users.

Hi Claudio Roca,
I have encountered the same problem. Do you found the solution for this issue? I will much appreciated if you willing to share your solution and email to [email protected] Thank you so much.

MIssing Contextual menu Items Folder?

I'm having trouble in iphoto, and it comes down to a contextual menu that is "missing" in my library...can anyone help?

Which one exactly?
Is it actually missing, like not in one of these...
/Library/Contextual Menu Items
/System/Library/Contextual Menu Items
/Users/nnnn/Library/Contextual Menu Items
Or just not usable/selectable?
Have you used Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions feature lately...

Reboot needed if many Permissions are fixed.

Why are iTunes, View, Window, and Help menu items disabled?

I am frequently encountering an issue in iTunes 10.5 (141) where all the menu items in the iTunes, View, Window, and Help menus are disabled (greyed out). Why is this happening and can it be stopped?
I've seen this issue on different Mac OS X 10.7.2 machines. It seems to occur during playlist manipulation, where I'm making new playlists, adding items to them and editing them and the items. In the worst cases, I'm forced to quit and restart iTunes, although I have to quit by using the context menu option in the Dock as the Quit option is disabled in the application.
I'd appreciate any advice on workarounds for this that don't involve quitting and restarting iTunes.

I'm also having the same issue. It was happening with 10.5.1 and now still with 10.5.2. I'm using a 2008 iMac running 10.6.8. I do not use iTunes Match. This seems to happen for no apparent reason i/o/w, I can't determine a pattern as to when it happens, but it occurs about once in every 10 times that iTunes is open and it seems to happen after it's been open for a while, but again, no particular pattern.
Sometimes, all the menu items are grayed out, and other times, 70% of the menu items are grayed out. I can still use the other functionality in iTunes, but must must Quit from the dock (it quits gracefully and no Force Quit is necessary). Relaunching restores eveything to normal for about a week.
I work with technical diagnostic issues and can usually pinpoint a problem, isolate an issue, or determine a pattern, but this one has me stumped. I thought 10.5.2 might fix it, but no. Maybe 10.5.3?

Missing command menu items - blur

in ps cs6 there are some menu items, such as FILTER / BLUR / FIELD & IRIS & TILT, which are missing from configuators choices in the command list. i just wanted to confirm that missing items will be added in revisions past configurator 3.1, thanks.

Configurator 3.1 does not add these missing items. Configurator can not get all the items of Photoshop, therefore, some of them are missing. I'm sorry for that.

Troubleshoot is the only Help menu item that won't open and makes FFX hang even after reset

Trying to solve why there's no sound with You tube, I headed for Help and troubleshoot. Every item on the Help menu opens, except troubleshoot. I didn't find "Help" in safe mode, so couldn't try it there.
Reset Firefox and trouble shoot still won't open.
And anything you add about the sound will be appreciated. It seems to come and go for reasons of itw own.

Does the troubleshooting information page open if you type ''about:support'' into the address bar and press Enter?
As for the sound issue,
# Open the Windows volume mixer and make sure the global sound level is appropriate, as well as the sound level for Adobe Flash Player and Firefox. Only running applications show up in the volume mixer, so you first have to open a Flash video in Firefox to change the volume level for Flash Player.

Missing Javascript menu items on Acrobat 9 Standard

I've been trying to get into some more advanced JS coding within Acrobat for forms, and I'm running into a bit of a roadblock in accessing the javascript tools. Specifically, I keep seeing references to Javascript menu items under the Advanced menu, but my Acrobat doesn't seem to have these at all. I also can't open the JS Debugger/console with Ctrl-J, but it will open if i put in a syntactically incorrect javascript statement and try to execute it (from a form field, etc).
Anyone have any ideas how to correct this? I found references online to this being an issue if Acrobat Reader is also installed on the same machine (it was), so i removed that, but the problem persists. I can enter javascript into an individual field, but i can't add a document-level script at all.
thanks

Sweet! I got it working. My function reads in the contents of a range (30+) of combo boxes and text boxes, does a little editing and then sorts, and then puts them back in the same range of boxes but with the blanks filtered out and in alpha order. I used a nested array and it worked pretty well.
The only thing i'm still stymied on is that it works perfectly for everything except if the textbox field is a number with a '+' in front of it (like +1 or +2200). It strips the + sign out, I'm assuming that's because of javascript special characters, but the escape/unescape function did not fix it. Doesn't matter if there are plus signs in the rest of the field, only at the beginning (and minus signs don't cause the same issue). I'm going to try manually escaping with quotes before reading into the array I think, but if you have seen this sort of thing before please let me know.

Help Menu item using Snow Leopard 10.6.2

I used the HELP menu in 10.6.2. When I requested MORE INFO. the computer indicated that I had HELP from Version 10.5. Is that what I shoud be getting or how do I get HELP on Snow Leopard?

Under ABOUT THIS MAC it definitely says 10.6.2. Tha is why when looking uo something using HELP I was surprised to see 10.5 as the version number. I still have not been able to duplicate how I got there. When I use HELP I get the blue box and am allowed to enter a search term. COMMAND I does not work on the Help screen. Hence--I must have been under an application beyond the FINDER level when I used COMMAND I.
If I duplicate the sequence, I will post it. Thank you.

Missing preferences, tool bars, menu items after receiving CS3 file while I have CS2

I have Indesign CS2. I rec'd a CS3 file not knowing it was CS3. A message appeared as follows:
Cannot Open. Please upgrade your plugins to the latest versions, or upgrade to the latest edition of Indesign.
I went into HELP, Configure plugins. Chose "all" and "required" plugins. I then clicked ok and it said "All plugins available when you restart application" and it still wouldn't open. Then I was sent an exchange version of the same file and it still wouldn't open. I received this message:
Cannot open. InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing or the file may be open in another application.
After this I wasn't able to get my CS2 screen back the way it was before. There's no introduction when I open the program, my tool bars aren't present, and the menu items aren't as extensive as they were before.
It was then suggested I reinstall Cs2. I logged in under the administrator. CS2 was different than the way I had it before but the tool bars were present. I then logged in under my name and there are still problems;no tool bars, missing menu items, no intro, etc.
I then tried rebuilding my preferences using these instructions;
The fastest way to do this for InDesign CS2 (and any CS2 program) is to quit the program, then hold down Command-Option-Shift-Control immediately after starting it up again, and keep those keys held down. (On Windows, hold down Control-Alt-Shift.)
If you mashed on those keys quickly enough, youll get an alert when the splash screen appears offering to Delete InDesign Preferences File?. Click Yes, but dont release the modifier keys while you do so, because youre going to get a second alert to which you should also click Yes.
Now you can release the keys and InDesign will complete the boot-up process with fresh, clean Preferences.
Nothing happened so my program is still missing preferences, menu items and toolbars. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

First, you need to realize that resetting preferences will put them back to ground zero, not the way they were the last time you were happy.
You can try the key combination again and see if you are any faster (we're talking near instantaneous) or you can open your user profile, show hidden files and folders and navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\Version 4.0 and rename the two files InDesign Defaults and InDesign SavedData.
In your case, a better first option, I think, would be to try System Restore which you'll find in System Tools under the Programs > Accessories heading on the start menu. Go back to the first restore point before you tried to open the file, if you can.
In any case, for you to open a CS3 .inx file you will need to be fully patched the the last CS2 update, and you should expect to see some text reflow issues, as well as missing any CS3 features that the author used which aren't supported in CS2.

Logic X: Missing menu items in Preferences/General

No Deactivation Menu Item?

I want to move Dreamweaver CS3 to a new computer. I want to
deactivate the license on the old computer first. However, when I
click the Help menu, there are no Activate or Deactivate menu items
listed. The two menu items called Download e-license and Return
e-license are there but are grayed out.
Does anyone know how I should deactivate Dreamweaver CS3
since I appear to be missing the menu items. I already have the
product installed on 2 machines (per the license agreement) so I
think it will be important to deactivate this one before I install
it on a 3rd machine.
Thanks!

There is no iTunes menu item for photos. When you connect your iPhone in iTunes left sidebar (under "Devices") the main window will show the iPhone sync selections. Across the top of the window are sic tabs, each of which can be selected by clicking on them. They are Summary, Info, Ringtones, Music, Photos, Videos, and Applications. That's the photo tab you need to click.
See the picture on page 9 of the manual.
