Asian words poping up on the Menu Bar and Tabs on Firefox Why?

Have you checked our known issues page? If your issue is not there, please provide a detailed description here:
Yes this has been happening to me only on Firefox. I have used Malwarebytes Anti-malware(it stops a lot this software) to protect from this. But it is still occurring! I have McAfee as my principle anti-virus and us also a very good malware called Trojan Killer this operates in the background like Malwarebytes Anti-malware. And monthly or bi-weekly I download the new version of Adwcleaner which cleans crap out of everything, registry, malware ads, popup ads etc. So why this is happening with the Asian Lettering is baffling it is on Windows 7 as my OS. It is also annoying too you can not tell what the tabs are on the menu of Firefox, the Asian words cover or distort the screen!!!!
If I rebot the computer it will be gone for a couple of hours and then slowly come back on Firefox's tabs!
Any Ideas?????

How to Make Fonts Bigger in Safari Menu Bar and Tabs

Hello,
I just set up a new IMAC 27" for my mom and she cannot read the menu bars and tabs in Safari. I know how to make the text of the webpage itself bigger, but is there any way to make the text in the menu bars and tabs bigger. Someone sugggested Opera browser. Would that be a better option?
Thanks
John

Welcome!
I had the same issue with my 27-inch--here's how I fixed it:
1) Go to System Preferences > Displays and select the "Displays" tab
2) For "Resolution" there are two buttons: "Best for Display" and "Scaled." Select "Scaled."
3) Now you should see a list of resolutions. The default is probably 2560x1440. Change it to 1920x1080.
I don't have great eyes but this setting makes it easy for me to see. It makes all menu bars including Safari about 3/10ths inch wide and the menu lettering close to 1/4-inch tall.

Title Bar stuck under the Menu bar and I cannot select and move it.

I often arrange windows around the desktop and sometimes I inadvertently push a window up too far and the title bar gets under the menu bar. Once I let go of the arrow, the title bar is too far under the menu bar and I can no longer reach it to move it down. The only solution is to close out the program and start over. Is there a way unbeknownst to me to select the title bar again and move it?

My E*Trade streaming watch list was stuck under the Menu Bar also. I tried reseting the screen resolution down to 1280 x 1024, and restarting the MarketTrader. There on the display was the stuck window, out from under. I resized and moved it to a central location, and resized the display back to my normal 1920 setting. And to my relief, the window Bar! Thanks Discussion!

The menu bar and HUD elements are unusually large in FF 22.

In the new version, the size of the menu bar and subsequent toolbars seems to have increased slightly. This also seems to have forced the icons on the toolbars to enlarge, causing them to be blurry as they are displayed in a lower resolution than normal.
Additionally, the zoom level (text and element size) for many webpages has increased. Manually resetting with ctrl+scroll down works, and the pages retain their proper size, but it's frustrating to redo this for every webpage.
I have checked that the text size setting in Options did not change.
What can I do to undo this appearance change?

I've lost the menu bar and want to get it back

I used the task bar to remove the menu bar and now it is gone and I can't use the menu to get it back. I've lost the web address bar everything so can't use the webpage. I would uninstall but it doesn't come up in my list of programs. I tried deleting the program and reintroducing it but it came back with the same lack of task bars. I was only trying to tidy all the gumpf fro the top of the page, not remove the functionality of the thing.

* In Firefox 3.6 versions on Windows and Firefox 4 on Windows and Linux it's possible to hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu of 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).

Is it possible to have the menu bar and the tabs on the same level?

Just downloaded Firefox 4 and I've started to get used to tabs being above the address bar (since it fits the theme so well), but I'm not used to the loss of the menu bar. When I bring the menu bar back, however, it creates a whole new level instead of being on the same level as the tabs like the Firefox button is. I'm just wondering if there's a way to make the menu bar and the tabs on the same level.

No, that is not possible.
Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.

When safari is in full screen mode and I move the mouse to the top of the screen to bring up the menu bar and the bookmark bar, it does nothing. Is anyone else having this issue?

I just tested that since I hardly ever use full screen mode, this was the first time since I upgraded to Mountain Lion, and it worked fine for me.
Try shutting Safari down and see if that changes anything.
If that doesn't change anything, try shutting down and then rebooting.

Every time i close my macbook and open it the airplay icon disappears from both the menu bar and itunes

every time i close my macbook and open it the airplay icon disappears from both the menu bar and itunes or i get an error when i try to use it
do you know why and how to solve this problem?

Hi Colin,
A couple of things you can try:
Open System Preferences and click on Network. Click on the small gear icon below the list of connections and select Set Service Order. Move your AirPort connection up to the top of the list so it will be first in line when your computer searches for connections. (It's probably looking for ethernet connections first..the normal default..and finding none, it then looks for wireless. This takes time.
Click on your AirPort connection again to highlight it and then click Advanced in the lower right of the pane. Make sure your wireless network is at the top of the list. Delete other networks that you don't need.
Finally, make sure there is a check mark in the box next to "Remember any network this computer has joined".
See if one of these actions will help.

My Creative Cloud icon is gone from the menu bar and the CC app will not open.

My Creative Cloud icon is gone from the menu bar and the CC app will not open. I'm on OS 10.10.3. I've tried reinstalling and also various fixes suggested on this forum but to no avail. Incredibly frustrating to be paying monthly for a product that doesn't work.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

When I maximize my screen on my Mac it hides the menu bar and the typed tool bar at the top of the screen - how do i fix this

When I maximize the screen on my Mac Book Pro it hides the menu bar and the typed tool bar at the top of the screen as well. How do I undo this?

10.7 "Full Screen" is a feature imported from IOS, the land of tiny screens.
To use a larger window on a REAL computer, adjust the Window's size to suit your needs. Do not use "Full Screen".

Why can't the Menu Bar and the Navigation Tool, share the same line?

With the Menu Bar and the Navigation Tool, now on separate lines, there's all this wasted space right above the address bar. What mental giant thought this up?

You can move the items on the Navigation Toolbar to the Menu bar if you want to have them on that bar.

Hello, Melorw44.
Try pressing the <esc> (Escape) key.
If <esc> doesn't clear your full screen, restart your Mac. When you launch Safari after the restart, the normal sized window should open.
BTW, three finger double tap applies to trackpads. From your responses, I infer that you are not using a trackpad. However, if you are using a wireless mouse (or other wireless pointing device), low batteries in the device might be causing your inability to control your view.

I cannot enlarge the font size of my menu bars and tabs I tried using a recommended add on with no success, can you help me please?

I was able to enlarge the fonts of menu bars and tabs in my previous version of firefox, I'm unable to resolve this on my own with firefox 4

Did you try this extension?

You can use one of these extensions to adjust the default font size and page zoom on web pages:

How to hide the menu bar and Dock

Howto hide the menu bar and Dock on Mac, I found a tutorial that addfunctions esto info.plist this
<key> LSUIPresentationMode </ key>
<integer> 4 </ integer>
But does not work which you know another way to do this?

I have played with 'LSUIPresentationMode' in the past - I may be wrong but I think a value of "1" (and "2" for that matter) only really works in combination with 'LSUIElement' set to a string value of "1". The 'LSUIElement' property of course does away with the application's own menu items so isn't ideal for most applications and since you mentioned using "1" instead of "4", I assume you want your menu items visible all the time.
