Clicking over menu, list appears on left side?

I never had this problem before, not sure if I hit somekind of key or something.
When I click any of the top menus, (like File, Edit, Image, etc) The menu that pops up appears on the LEFT side of the mouse cursor. Normally it appears on the right. Kind of how it would look like if you minimized the program window and clicked on a menu. Not big of an issue, but it's a little annoying, how can I fix this?

Hi, Mylenium is right.
I am not aware of any change I did myself, but the same problem (for this minute so far) was caused by checking Tablet PC settings > Other > Pen hold (translate from Czech version, can be different). There has been checked (which is right) that I write with right hand, but that means that the menus show on the left side. So I had to change it to left hand - right side. Apparently there is some conflict between this and some other settings in Win. So far I see menus in Photoshop are on the right side, but I hope that this Left hand setting will not cause any other problem.

So earlier today I updated to the newest version of itunes and ever since I've been having problems syncing devices. I have plugged my iphone in and it will say its sync in the menu list on the left side of itunes but isn't working

I downloaded the newest version of itunes and ever since I've been having problems. When I connect my iphone to itunes, it will say its synced up, however when i'm trying to add music its just not allowing it to happen.
Also when I try to restore the Iphone or check for updates, It says connect via USB to check for updates or restore. The same with attemting to sync apps
I've reinstalled itunes several times and removed and reinstalled my portable devices. And still nothing. When I first plug the iphone in, it will to that auto play Windows 7 does and allows pictures to be saved onto the PC.
It seems like the syncing is working with some things and now others. Any idea's would be delightful??

I feel its more of my sync drivers for itunes/iphone not working if that makes sense. Its not my itunes that stops responding, its more of that if the phone syncs up it fails to anything further.
I've tried sync another iphone to the same itunes and windows autoplayer will allow the photos sorted on the iphone to be saved to the laptop but itunes won't even recongise the device is plugged in.
Although it will charge the battery

There is no "DEVICES" listed on the left side of itunes.

itunes recognizes my ipod and my iphone.. However there is no "Devices" listed on the left side of itunes. My ipod, when I plug it into my puter and open itunes does show up on the row that has songs, allbums, etc on the very right hand side, just to the left of itunes store. when I click on it, "my ipod", it opens up the "on this ipod' screen. And "my ipod" then shows on the very left, same row. When I click on the little arrow just to the right of "my ipod" it shows a drop down menu thta has Music, Movies, tv shows, etc. However there is NO 'Devices" on that drop down menu.
"When in Manual mode, to add songs or playlist, drag them from itunes to the DEVICE icon in the sidebar" I cannot do this because there is no DEVICE icon in the sidebar.
What can I do to solve this please?
What I am wanting to do is to xfer songs that I have on my puter to my ipod. I have xfered them to itunes library. However if I try "syncing" them, I get the 'your ipod is synced to another library' message.
Please do not ask me to reinstall itunes. I went through the whole process of COMPLETELY removing any trace of itunes, quicktime, and all the other things listed in the How to remove itunes completely from your puter. I have checked that Apple mobile device USB Driver is up and installed and running. I have checked to make sure Apple Mobile Device support is instaled and OK.
What else can I do?

clarkkent26,
By default ringtones won't show up in the left hand column until you have downloaded some.
If they aren't showing after that, or you want it to show even though it is empty, in iTunes preferences you can specify what sections to show.
Hope this helps,

When forwarding an e-mail I have lost the address book contact list on the left side.

I used to have the address book contact list on the left side of the page being forwarded to allow easy selection of addressees. It's gone and I need it back.
Thank you very much

Open a Write window and press F9 to toggle the Contact Sidebar on and off.
You can also turn it on from the View menu in the Write window.

HT3228 My mail icon shows how many I have, but there isn't any list on the left side. I will read your answers on another computer. I can send OK.

My mail icon shows how many I have, but the screen is blank with no emails listed on the left side. They used to be there. I can send OK.
Any suggestions? I will read replies on another computer until this is resolved.

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."

Since upgrading to the newest ios 6.1.26 itunes isn't showing my app list on the left side of the screen, nor does it show all of self made movies, only the purchased ones. Anyone else experiencing a similar problem?

Since upgrading to the newest ios 6.1.2 itunes isn't showing my app list on the left side of the screen, nor does it show all of my self made movies, only the purchased ones. Anyone else experiencing a similar problem? The iTunes store and most of the other features show up but other normal features seem to be missing too. I wish I hadn't upgraded. Anyone else having this problem????

If you are talking about iTunes on your computer use the iTunes View menu item, "Show Sidebar".
If not, I have no idea what you are describing.

When i open my itunes my screen doesn't have the list on the left side

my itunes screen looks different when plugging in my iphone I cannot find the list on the left side that shows my music, apps, etc
what changed and how do I get the screen to look like it used to
I cannot sync my apps or music cannot find anywhere to do this
why did apple take that away or change the look without asking first?

It's just that you are a tad bit behind the times here, shouser. When iTunes 11 came out your issue came up many times a day for many weeks. The question was asked and answered time and time again. I'm sure that Apple is very clear on the response to that decision. I'm not saying that I liked it any better than you, but the discussion is SO over....
Take a look at "More Like This" just to the right of this discussion....
And, seriously? You are going to never get an Apple product again because of a software decision that you don't agree with, and because you don't think the solution is intuitive enough, even though it is a simple thing to rectify (once you have paid a little attention and read a little to find out how to get the sidebar to display)?
Well, if that one tiny little problem is enough to make you want to go to the dark side, then by all means, GO!
I'm sure that your new Android and PC will hold your hand with everything you need without any effort on your part....
Cheers,

My "send" button has disappeared and my address list on the left side has disappeared also. How do I retrieve these items?

I have never had a problem sending & or receiving e-mail prior to the past few days. All of a sudden the Send button has disappeared and my address list on the left side has disappeared too.
I did find some help which suggested opening the Write and then press F9 to retrieve the address list. The address list returned on the left but does not appear as it used to ie. full length of the screen. However what is now there will be satisfactory. The "Send " button is still missing which is frustrating as I have not been able to send any e-mails for approximately a week now.
Would appreciate advice as to how to retrieve the above.
Thank you.

Thank you for your advice re: the SEND button having disappeared and also the address list on the left side having disappeared. I must confess that I was not able to get it back myself. This a.m. my computer would not turn on at all. I therefore contacted the company which services it, namely iTOK and a technician read your suggestions and after a bit of manipulation of various things he got them both back. It seems that I had not noticed the "press the alt key" as part of it due to the fact that the 'alt key' was not 'ALT key'. My fault for skimming too quickly. Thanks again for your advice...it worked and now i am back on track.

ICal 5: day view: how can the list on the left side be hidden?

Thanks a lot for your help

Take it in for repair/replace to your local Apple retailer.

Where is the photo tab on itunes? My device is not listed on the left side of my screen and there is no photos tab on the right of my screen. I want to delete photo albums that were synced through itunes to my ipad 3.

I synced several photo albums to my iPad 3 from my computer through iTunes. Now, I would like to remove them and have discovered that they cannot be removed except through using iTunes. Instructions that I've read say that once the device is connected to and selected from the list in iTunes, select the Photo Tab and then the folder that contains the photos etc. I never get that far because I do not have a Photo Tab to select in iTunes. How do I find this illusive tab so that I can delete these albums that are merely duplications of other pictures and are just occupying space. I need to get rid of them. Can anyone help me find the photo tab. I cannot move past that step until I do. Also, my device is not listed on the left side as stated in the instructions. It's in the bar on the upper right area of my screen and is automatically selected when connected. I am using the current version 11.1 for iTunes and IOS 7 on my iPad 3, if that helps.

I have the same problem on the latest iTunes software and Windows 7. My window is maximzed and I do not see any tab for photos. Seems related to a recent update (IOS7?) as this was there - at least before the very big change to the interface.

Cannot not click on menu that appears when i right click my taskbar, as the right click menu dissapears when i move mouse over to the right click menu

PROBLEM: RIGHT CLICK CONTEXT MENU DISAPPEARS WHEN TRYING TO LEFT CLICK AN OPTION
Hi,
Im using Windows 7, and i could always
go down to my TaskBar and Right Click
Icons, and active icons, which would bring up
the standard Right Click Menu list.
PROBLEM
As soon as i moved my Mouse away from
the bottom Window 7 Task Bar to go a couple
of millimeters above to left click an option on
the Context Menu i opened with my right click,
The whole Menu disappears, and this happens in
Firefox version 29.01, other programs in Firefox,
and other such as Skype.
When i was running Firefox 28
i didn't have this problem, can you help me out.
Thank You
Kev Borg

'''PROBLEM'''
'''RIGHT CLICK MENU DISAPPEARS WHEN YOU MOVE YOUR MOUSE TO LEFT CLICK A MENU OPTION ON THE RIGHT CLICKED MENU.'''
''''''YOU CAN'T BECAUSE AS YOU MOVE YOUR MOUSE TO THE MENU YOU JUST RIGHT CLICKED TO OPEN DISAPPEARS BEFORE YOU GET A CHANCE TO LEFT CLICK YOUR CHOICE.''''''
'''SOLUTION'''
'''1]''' GO TO '''CONTROL PANEL''' AND CLICK TO VIEW MENU
'''2] ''' GO TO "'''EASE OF ACCESS CENTRE'''" AT THE TOP.
'''3]''' LEFT CLICK ON MENU ITEM "'''EASE OF ACCESS CENTRE'''"
'''4]''' AFTER YOU LEFT CLICK ON "'''EASE OF ACCESS CENTER'''" IT APPEARS.
'''5]''' LOOK DOWN THE LIST TILL YOU FIND "'''MAKE THE MOUSE EASIER TO USE'''"
'''5]''' THE TOP SECTION SHOWS YOU HOW TO CHANGE YOUR MOUSE COLOURS ETC.
'''6]''' SCROLL DOWN TILL YOU SEE THIS HEADING "'''MAKE IT EASIER TO MANAGE WINDOWS'''"
'''7]''' RIGHT UNDER THAT MENU THERE IS CHECK BOX,
"'''ACTIVATE A WINDOW BY HOVERING OVER IT WITH YOUR MOUSE"
'''8] MAKE SURE THERE IS NOT A TICK IN THAT OPTION BOX, IF THERE IS UN TICK IT AND APPLY AND CLICK OK TO SAVE.
And now you should have No More Problems with your Right Click Menu disappearing when you move your mouse over to the menu to left click a menu item on that right clicked menu.
SOLUTION FIXES PROBLEM.
Thank You and i hope this answer my help any other people who have had this frustrating problem.

Since downloading itunes 10 my ipod's features are messed up. Currently I'm looking to delete apps. They no longer appear on left side of itunes screen. I try to click on apps on top of screen but apps are in a shadow mode and I can't click on them.

Since downloading itunes 10 my ipod's features are messed up and many do not now work. Currently my problem is I want to delete some apps. It no longer shows on the left side of itunes. When I click on apps at the top, the apps appear shadowed and i cannot click on them. If I check the box to sync them it says I will lose what's on my ipod and the things in my library will replace them. What should I do?

If you are completely confident that you didn't hide it, then you purchased those with different apple id. If you completely confident that you purchases with same apple id then you have hidden it. One of the other or you are speaking about a miracle. While miracles are possible they are not very likely. Remember

Why did my bookmarks icon disappear and why is my bookmarks menu suddenly on the left side?

Recently, Firefox updated to 23.0.1 (beta?) and once the browser was back up, I noticed that my bookmark icon (the star) was gone. I fixed the problem easily enough by setting it back up to where it originally was. Now my problem is that when I click the icon, my menu appears on the left side of the screen rather than the right as it did previously before the update. I downgraded to 22 and that didn't fix the problem. I would really like for the menu to be back on the right side, as the left is just frustrating me. I did not find any quick fix in the customization menu, or in safe mode. Can anyone help me out?
