Can't see menu items in Pro Tools

While using a few applications on my recently updated Mac Pro my Pro Tools and Illustrator menus are no longer visible until I mouse over them. So if I want to change a font in Illustrator CS6 I click the font drop menu and it's basically blank until I mouse down the menu exposing each font that is in there. Same for Pro Tools 10. I select an insert and the plug-ins list is blank until I mouse over it.

I'm having the same problem with Pro Tools SE 8.0.3 running in OS X Yosemite 10.10.2
I had some problems trying to run it because of the flash plugin. Now I did it but the menu items won't show up and It's very annoying.

Help-can't see (canvas) item in viewer

Hi
I'm trying to position an 8 point garbage matte by use of the canvas, but can't see the positions because I can't see the item in the viewer while I am on the controls page in the canvas
please excude dumb qstn, what am I doing wrong, how can i get it to show in viewer?
thanks : )

Hi(Bonjour)!
Not sure to understand your question, but you can "tear" the filter tab from viewer window and position it anywhere on your screen. Be sure to double-clic the clip with the garbage matte applied to open it in viewer before tearing the filter tab.
There also a local menu in this filter that allows to "see" either your garbage matte, source material, composition in the canvas.

2.apple id and i cloud id have to be same or not .i cant see my note in i cloud.
3.how can i go to see my back up in i cloud?

Give a little more time. The time between you initial post and your reply was only six minutes. It was ten minutes between your first reply and your second reply.
You are not addressing Apple here. We are just users like yourself.
The only way to see what is backup in iCloud is to restore you iPod from your iCloud backup
For what is included in backups see:
iTunes: About iOS backups
iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview
Your Apple ID and iCloud ID do not have to be the same. Notes are associated with your iCloud ID. You have to go to icloud.com and sign in to your iCloud ID to view your Notes.

Can't see my items on formulas

Hi everyone
I am a newbie about OPM. I want to create a formula about my item. I use "OPM All" responsibility for creating items (Demo instance).
I use this path for creating items.
"OPM All" responsibility
Inventory > Items > Master Items
and I assign the item to "PR1" organization. Then go to this path.
Formulator > Formulas
In formula section I click the LOV but I can't see my items that I created.
Pls help.

I found the problem
In master item forms there is a tab named "Process Manufacturing". You must click these options.

Can't see devices items on the finder

Hi after downloading lion i can't see devices items on Imac. How can I find those? Thank you for your help in advance.

Some more information may be helpful.
What can't you see? Your internal HD? External USB drives? Printer? Scanner?
Where can't you see it? On your desktop? Under "System Information"? Sidebar?
Thanks!

I can't access menu items, nor use mouse right click

I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 and all of a sudden I cant use the mouse to access the menu items, nor use the right click menus. I can click on button and links with the left button, but right clicking on a link does not bring up the usual menu. I recall this happening in the past, but an exit and restart of the program cleared it up. Reboot are not fixing the problem, nor reinstallation ( after removal).

It seems it could be a profile corruption issue, but not quite!
I was having the same issue (I'm running Lucid Lynx) and after starting Firefox with the -profilemanager option and using the default profile, I was able to access the menu items and get a right-click options menu. I then shutdown Firefox and restarted with my regular profile and it is now working just fine!
A little weird, but hey, I can access the menu items as per normal.
FYI: I had to purge and reinstall Adobe Flashplugin just yesterday then today I got this problem soon after one application crashed in Wine - not sure if all these things are related though!
Ciao,

Can't see conflicts item in iSync menu

Hello,
I am using OS X in Swedish, which probably means I will not use the exact English terms in my question - apologies!
I have a Nokia N73 which I have been syncronizing with iCal, using bluetooth/iSync 3.0.2. Now changes I make to the phone calender aren't transferred when I sync. I can't understand why, but wonder if it has something to do with the principles for resolving conflicts between the two. I am now trying to view the "conflicts" item in iSync, but can't find it. The "show status" box is checked, but I still can't see a "conflicts" menu item. What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions? This is soooo frustrating, any help would be greatly appreciated!
Many thanks,
Helena

This is for PE4, so things might be slightly different in other versions. In the main tab area, make sure you are in Edit. Then below, click on the Project tab. Your Assets will display there. Exactly how they display will depend on your display settings. If it has been Imported, it should appear there.
Now, with Menus with Motion Backgrounds, remember that there is a 30 sec. max limit to the Duration of a Menu in PE (do not know if it was bumped up in PE7). When I create a Motion Background AV, I do so on a Sequence in PrPro2. PE does not have Sequences (kind of like mini-Projects), so if I were using PE, I'd do a separate Project and would edit my Motion Background to fit, then Export as a DV-AVI Type II, for Import into my Project. With PrPro and Encore (my authoring program), there is a 40 Duration limit, and that is what I do. I also Export my Audio as an elemental stream, rather than use a muxed AV file, and Export these separately, then Import them separately into Encore. Now, I do not know if PE automatically truncates the Duration of the Motion Background Asset to 30 sec., of if one needs to do this separately. Steve, or Robert can fill in that blank for you. However, my method should work fine, but might include an extra step, if PE does the trimming automatically.
Now, if you are using an AV Asset from the Template list, you will probably have to Import that separately, as I do not think that PE uses the .EM format, that links Menus (.PSD's) and other Assets for Motion Backgrounds (.WMV, .MPEG, .MOV, or other). Again, one of the PE experts can tell you about that.
Good luck,
Hunt

I accidently knocked some keys on the keyboard and firfox is now lost at the top of the screen, I cannot see menu items if I push the curser up some of the top appears on my screen but not all please can you help me?

I accidently knocked some keys on my keyboard. I do not know which keys my hand knocked but it caused Firefox to go beyond my visible screen at the top. The base of Firefox is still okay and views correctly. But the head is missing I cannot access my menus items such as Bookmarks etc. The screen does drop down if I push my curser up but not enough to show the menu items. Can you please help?

Thank you for your help - this definitely sorted it out!

Can't get menu items to be displayed

Hello,
The answer to my problem is probably quite simple but I can't see it and its driving me crazy, basically I can't get my menu items to be displayed like file, create and search. But what ever I add to the file menu items like open or save isn't displayed and I don't know why I think it may have to do with the action listeners but I'm not sure how or why or it could be because of where it is placed in the code, but again I'm not sure. Any help will be appreciated thanks!

It's because you are mixing Swing components and AWT components. The menu items are actually displayed, but they are hidden behind the panel with all the buttons. Things will work fine if you change the following line:
Panel p1 = new Panel(); // This is an AWT panel. Use this instead:
JPanel p1 = new JPanel();Read more about it here:

Can I see if my macbook pro is connected with the 2.4 or 5 GHz bands?

Airport extreme with dual band, my computer can choose between the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands automatically...
Can I see which band my macbook pro is using? Is there a way? I am very curious which one it chooses and when.

Yes you can. There are several ways - some direct and some indirect. Here's a couple you can try:
Method 1. Quick and Dirty
Click on the Airport menu icon in Finder when holding down the option-key. A greyed-out list appears with useful information you can use to deduct what you're connected to.
- If the channel number is over 14, you are on the 5 GHz band. This is assuming that you have set up your networks so that the 5 GHz band is exclusively 802.11n and the 2.4 GHz is not 802.11n compatible,
Method 2. Being sure.
Open Airport Utility, select your AEBS and click Manual Setup. Look at the line that says "2.4 GHz / 5 GHz Airport IDs". There you can see the network ID for the 2.4 GHz radio and the 5 GHz radio respectively. Now check the SSID number in the Airport menu as above (pressing the Option key, of course). It will be either one of the Airport IDs you just checked - the 2.4 GHz or the 5 GHz - and that's the one you're connected to.
Hope this helped.
Cheers.

Cannot see menu items on database home page after install of beta3

I have installed XE beta 3 in a Windows 2000 SP4 VM. Install went fine and I can get to the home page without issue. However, I cannot see the items when I use the pulldown menus. If I move the mouse cursor over them, it is possible to select although I dotn know what I am selecting!
Has anyone experienced this problem, or does anyone have any idea what is causing it?
Many thanks,
Rob

I am running VMware Workstation 5.5 for Windows XP.
I have a Windows 2000 VM established, with SP4 applied.
The VM is running IE 5. I have no other browsers installed. I am not able to install XE anywhere else at present, due to resource limitations.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue. Next week I will install onto a "real" Windows 2000 environment, but would like to get this one working sooner than that.
Thanks for your response.
Cheers, Rob

Can't see menu bar on external display

I just attached my MacBook running 10.6.2 an lcd flat screen hd tv. Everything is fine other than I can't see the menu bar. I've changed to every resolution available, but the menubar is never visible. It's there, because if I use my (wireless) mouse and put it off the top of the screen and click, I can get menus to open.
Has anyone run into this problem and have you found a solution?
Thanks!

Right, your TV is overscanning. That's very common. Overscan has been part of what TVs have done for decades.
If your TV is meant to be compatible with computer output, there should be a way to set the screen size using the TV's remote and/or menu system so that computer output just fills the screen. So check you TV's user manual about making a connection to a PC for information about how to get rid of overscan on the TV.

Can't see Menu Bar in Windows 8

Please help... I'm new to Windows 8. I have the latest version of Skype. But I can't see any Menu Bar. All I can see is Home (at the top), Add Number & Save Number (at the bottom).
I have done a restart since I installed it, which I assume is the same as logging out and back in again. I have merged my skype and hotmail and want to merge my facebook contacts too, but without the Menu Bar I havent got any "Options"....

You can install latest Skype desktop Client with this link:

How can I recover or restore, deleted pro tools documents

I have recently deleted some of my pro tools le documents/files. Can anyone help me retrieve them? (Mac os x 10.5)

Depending on what files / documents you deleted you might be in a world of hurt. If they are audio files and you have a back up, you can restore them to the sessions audio files folder. If it's the session file that you deleted, and you have auto session back-up enabled, then you can launch your session from the most recent session back-up file (located in the session folder, session file back-ups folder). Launching the session this way will also tell you what if any audio files, fade files are missing. You might post additional ProTools related questions to the Digidesign support site, specifically the DUC. Lots of info there.
