[Automator]How to pause Dropbox syncing from status bar?

Sorry, i am a new guy.
I don't have idea how to pause Dropbox syncing by using Automator.
How should i do?

Hi,
The following script should do the trick. I've used cliclick because the “click at“ command doesn't seem to work any more under Mavericks (see this post for example).
tell application "System Events" to tell process "Dropbox"
    set {x, y} to position of menu bar item 1 of menu bar 2
    set {x, y} to {x + 13, y + 11} -- center of menu icon
end tell
set cliclick to "/usr/local/bin/cliclick "
do shell script cliclick & "c:" & x & "," & y & " w:250"
set {x, y} to {x + 135, y + 251} -- center of wheel
do shell script cliclick & "c:" & x & "," & y & " w:250"
set {x, y} to {x + 85, y + 102} -- center of menu item
do shell script cliclick & "c:" & x & "," & y
If you prefer, you might also use this more concise version of the script:
tell application "System Events" to tell process "Dropbox"
          set {x, y} to position of menu bar item 1 of menu bar 2
end tell
do shell script "/usr/local/bin/cliclick " & "c:" & (x + 13) & "," & (y + 11) & " w:250" & " c:" & (x + 148) & "," & (y + 262) & " w:250" & " c:" & (x + 233) & "," & (y + 364)
Hope it can help.

    How do I delete items from menu bar  that are not part of the OS

    Perhaps you could be more specific, as it is a little difficult to answer your question without any details.  I can give you some general ideas though.
    On my machine there are a few applications that have installed items into the menu bar - I'm assuming you are talking about the icons on the right hand side of the top bar. To remove those items, I would generally need to uninstall the program that created them. To do this varies a little from application to application.
    Also, sometimes an application will have preferences that allow you choose if you want to display the item in the menu bar.
    So, my general advice would be that you need to identify the application that placed the item there, and remove it from your computer.  If there is an uninstall program for that application, I would run that in the first instance.
    If you don't actually wish to uninstall the application, you may need to click on the item or run the application and see if there is a setting to not show the menu bar item.
    Hope that helps.

  • I recently updated to Firefox (desktop) 6.0.2 & love it but please can you tell me an EASY way HOW I can I get the status bar to display at the bottom so I can see the status of my downloads, safe sites & that sync is either in progress or finished.

    Windows 7 64-bit
    Firefox v. 6.0.2
    Norton 360 v.5

    Firefox has a status panel that shows you what is happening during page loading, and also shows the destinations of links when you mouse over them. The status bar showed that as well. You really do not lose that information. I found that I like the addons bar better than the status bar because I could put more buttons on it.

       return tab;
    }Now I just have to figure out how to add a panel for line number to sit adjacent to my text area without throwing the whole window out of proportion. I tried adding some context menu buttons to sit next to it, and for some reason they seemed to want to grow by 500x the size specified and destroyed the whole look of the app. :s maybe I will just make do with status bar line numbers.

  • Hide URL from Status Bar

    Hi,
    Is it possible to hide the URL from the browser status bar when the mouse moves over a link AND once the link is clicked to hide the URL from the address bar as well ??
    Thanks for any input,
    Regards,
    Brandon

    More than the anal users. Many people use this information to
    decide
    whether they will click on the link. By hiding it, you remove
    that
    extremely valuable security information - for example, a link
    tells you on
    the screen that it is taking you to www.wachovia.com, but the
    status bar
    link tells you it's taking you to
    www.iamahackersiteandwilldrinkyourmilkshake.cn
    I don't think you want to remove that from your site, unless,
    of course, you
    are the webmaster for
    'iamahackersiteandwilldrinkyourmilkshake.cn....

  • Access Airport Utility from Status Bar?

    Hello - is there any clever way to enable access of "Airport Utility" from the WIFI Icon in my status bar (top right toolbar)?
    The WIFI icon has option "open network preferences" but nothing to open Airport Utility.
    If I hold the option and click the WIFI Icon, I get WIFI diagnostics, but no Airport Utility.
    i would really like to remove Airport Utitlity from my dock but access with 1 click.
    thankyou

    Hi there LaPastenague
    I have the Monitor Airport setting already as you kindly shown me. Plus the other 2 checkboxes checked. Thankyou.
    LaPastenague - you likely help heaps of people - but its me again, I am opening and closing Airport Utilty alot to check connectivity as I am still experiencing the slow web page loads. I did the Iv6 link-only as you last helped me. I am the person in bridge-mode on the Time Capcule.
    I have also noticed I am seeing "noresult " in my Finder/Path Finder window when I search on my HD or 2TB Time Capscule I use as an external drive.  Then the results appear. So something is not right.
    What i have been doing more regularly to help with my "slow page load problem", is turning off the ISP's wireless router and then wait 10min and back on. This brings town TC as its bridged.
    What I have noticed, when I open up Airport Utility first, it says Internet is "disconnected". But in my WIFI Icon it shows all good. Then after a while it shows Internet connected.
    when I open initially
    then after a while:
    What I have read, is perhaps I should remove the 4 DNS settings and back to one. The ISP gave me the 4 DSN settings and asked me to put them in, in attempt to improve slow page load speed.

  • How do I get rid of status bar for screen shots

    How do I get rid of the status bar at the top of my iPhone 3G while taking screen shots? I'd like to publish the shots on the web and in a You Tube video.

    It depends on what you are taking a screen shot of. For example, if you are watching a video and the controls (and status bar) are visible, you can tap the screen to remove them and take you screen shot.

  • How to display a message on status bar while an LOV is active?

    Hi,
    Can any suggest me that how can I display my custom message on the status bar of my form, while an LOV is displayed on the screen.
    I populate an LOV in an Item in the form. I need my status bar to display a message while my LOV is Displayed and also this message to be there on the screen when we moves between the records on the LOV.
    This can be partially achieved by 'message' built-in, but the text message so displayed disappears as soon as u move between the records displayed by the LOV.I want this to be retain there even when we move between records(the data displayed in the LOV) in LOV.
    Can anyone suggest the solution?
    Many thanks in advance.
    Cheers

    hi i am not sure about displaying the information on status bar , what i feel is u can do something like this.

    i hope this can solve ur problem
    thanks and regards

  • Can't remove add ons from status bar

    I added weather apps at bottom status bar after app dissapeared. The new ones take up the whole bar and I don't like it. Now I can't get rid of them.

    how did you uninstall that software? did you simply trash the application? that wasn't the proper way to do it since the app used an installer to install. there should be an uninstaller that came with that app. try using that. you might have to reinstall that software first. if that doesn't work then you have to search out what exactly that software installed. there could be login items. check those in system preferences->accounts. or there could be some launch daemons. check homedirectory/Library/Launchagents, /Library/launchagents and /Library/launchdaemons. but definitely try the uninstaller first.
