CS4 menus blanked out

Installed CS4 2 weeks ago and it's running fine, but in the last two days it won't show any of the new display menus.
See screenshot:
Resetting prefs didn't help. Nor did enabling/ disabling 3D acceleration. Anyone else get this?

AIR Apps: Native File Menus blanking out with Macbook 13"

Hey all,
First and foremost thanks for taking the time to read.
While running a Macbook 13" using Snow Leopard, I'm seeing blank native menus coming through on AIR apps. We've tried our own app, as well as TweetDeck [another AIR app], and none of the file menus come through [they come through as long blank white columns]. This includes the Apple menu!
Has anyone seen any issue with this reported?
Thanks again,
Christian

Fixed by re-installing AIR!

Help please...All menus grayed out in CS4...

Premiere Pro used to work and a few weeks ago when I openned it, all of the menu items were grayed out and no editing panel or anything openned. I can't even quit the program. Literally everything is grayed out.
There is nothing I can do with it. I have uninstalled the entire Master Collection using the Adobe Installers and double checked to make sure things were cleaned up by using the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool.I have also attempted to just reinstall Premiere Pro from the disks to no avail.
All other programs in the suite apprear to load and work fine. Only Premiere Pro CS4 does not work.
Any ideas on how to fix this issue? I really need to be able to use the program and can't yet afford to upgrade to CS5.5... so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks guys!
David

Thanks Bill. No worries... Haa, haa. I should have asked MYSELF about the second monitor.
REALLY appreciate the help and care.
Blessings bro.

The second monitor has been an issue with several programs. Photoshop is one too.
There is another thread, where a user was getting the "bing," that a window was open, but could not see it. Sure enough, it was on his second monitor, that had been disconnected. I should have asked if you had ever had a second monitor. I am the "dunce."
Glad that you located the problem and good luck,

Lighting Effects Blanked out

I've got an image open, which I added an adjustment, desaturation, then lowered the opacity hue to about 70%. Now I'd like to render lighting effects, but in the menue it is blanked out. I've got CS4 on a MacBook Pro.
Any ideas?

I've got an image open, which I added an adjustment, desaturation, then lowered the opacity hue to about 70%.
»Opacity hue«? Do You mean Hue or the Opacity of the Adjustment Layer?
The Filter Lighting Effects also won’t work on CMYK- and L*a*b-images.
Are You applying the Filter as a Smart Filter?
And have You considered trying to achieve the effect with Gradients or Adjustment Layers?

I just upgraded to Lion 10.7.2 and it says that it will not support Power PC programs so my 2008 version of Mac Office and Intuit Quickbooks are blanked out. I need these programs. How do I proceed?

I just upgraded to Lion 10.7.2 and it says that it will not support Power PC programs and has blanked out my 2008 version of MS Office for Mac and Intuit's Quickbooks. How do I proceed to get these programs back?

Upgrade to newer versions compatible with Lion or downgrade to Snow Leopard:
Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

How do I play a video in full-screen mode on one screen of a dual-screen Windows 7 system without blanking out the other screen?

How do I play a video in full-screen mode on one screen of a dual-screen Windows 7 system without blanking out the other screen? Not losing the other screen would be useful as I would like to, for example, monitor my emails whilst watching a video or to work on a project whilst watching an instructional video.
Note : Resizing a window to fill the screen is not acceptable as it still leaves unsightly borders.

MIGO - Blank out the Qty in unit of entry field on PO receipt

Within MIGO upon PO receipt, standard behaviour is that it defaults Qty in unit of entry field to the total remaining outstanding qty.
Customer has requirement to blank out the Qty in unit of entry field on PO receipt.
We have looked at Business Add Ins for MIGO (e.g MB_MIGO_ITEM_BADI, MB_MIGO_BADI etc) and does not appear to be feasible.
Does anyone know a way to do this ?
Regards.
Phil.

If a restore did not fix it, you have a hardware issue--possible bad wi-fi radio.

PO Account assignment category change blanks out GL account

When changing the AAC on a PO from 'I' to a 'U', for certain price conditions, the GL account gets blanked out. The OME9 setting for both I and U is 'GL account number field is mandatory'. This occurs even when no GR/IR have been performed on the PO. The error message ME083 - 'Enter GL Account' is thrown. Occurs in ME22N and when using BAPI_PO_ChANGE. Is this normal?
Thanks for your help.
-Sanjay

I think it is normal. There is a checkbox 'Derive acct. assgt.' in OME9. Here is the help text on this field.
If Inventory Management is not active in your system, you must specify (enter) the preliminary account assignments for all the items manually. Setting this indicator enables you to by-pass this step. You will then no longer get the dialog box for the entry of a preliminary account assignment.
You maintain the automatic account assignment specification facility using the Customizing functionality of Financial Accounting under Maintain automatic account determination.
Check the checkbox and see if it solves your issue. Apparently, checking this checkbox enables fetching the account from Maintain automatic account assignment config. table.

Can't blank out a portion of a PDF with Preview?

On my old iBook circa 2005 I can eliminate portions of a PDF with Preview, using Annotate, making a box over the area I don't want, coloring it white and voila! Now with my newish MBPr I can only get a white rectangle with a visible border around it. Grr. Is there no way any more to "blank out" areas of a PDF that I want to print and save my printer ink, as well as make the image take up less space on the page?

Solved again. Just use the crop and save as another PDF, serves the same function.

Yesturday "searching" appeared on top left hand corner of my phone.. i tried taking out the sim and inserting it, still the same. not long after that, the phone just blanked out! i plugged in the charger and the apple icon comes on and it just stays on that screen! ive tried holding reset button down together with home button for 10secs or more.. still no results. the apple icon just comes on n off when it is plugged into the charger. as soon as i take the charger off, the icon goes off and phone just completely goes off. i cant get it to work normally anymore. i've only had this for about 1 month now!!! Anyone know what's going on or what i could do to fix this please?

Hello E_Motuliki
If you can, try and put your iPhone into recovery mode and then use iTunes to restore it to see if it resolves all the issues that you are seeing with the service as well as the powering off.

[Solved] Screen blanks out after quitting X

Hello everyone.
I don't use any login manager such as GDM or Slim, I just start X from the terminal when I need it. However, after installing Arch the last time (new hdd), every time I exit X (XFCE 4 is my window manager) the screen blanks out. I know the system is still responsive, because if I type startx or reboot, it works. Calling startx wakes the monitor again. However, I don't need X all the time, sometimes I prefer not to use it.
I haven't dealt with this before and searching for a solution didn't help - nvidia users used to have this issue until a particular driver update.
However, I have an ATI card (HD 5750) and I use the xf86-video-ati driver.
Appending vga=773 to kernel options changes the resolution (of my ttys) but it doesn't solve the issue.
I'm kind of clueless about how to proceed, so any hints and tips would be welcome.
Thanks

The catalyst driver doesn't have the issue, so as far as it works, the issue is resolved.

Having an intermittent issue where my iMac blanks out on me. On restarting I get several bands running down the screen with pixels jumping around within the bands, then the white screen of death and nothing... This happens intermittently and usually restarts OK. Happened again three days ago and wouldn't restart for two days (again the bands/pixels etc) but now operating fine? Any ideas whats wrong with my iMac and what the solution may be? Also gets very hot from time to time, particularly if I'm playing music/watching youtube/movies for extended periods.

Full screen preview blanked out in from options in audio video settings?

Hi all,
Am running FCP6 and have lost the option to preview fullscreen in the audio video settings menu. It is literally missing, as an option, though the space the option inhabited is still there. Only options I have are to preview via firewire to my CRT monitor. I have tried to refresh AV devices and all frames, but doesn't seems to help/work.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks,
-Tom

Hi David and thanks for your suggestion. I gave it a try and no luck. Its just the same. I have no options in video playback at all unless I connect my deck and then I have only the via firewire options, the deck provides. BTW, I know its the wrong forum, but I have the same blanking out situation in the output filed in MOTION.
Any more suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
-Tom

MacBook Pro/Thunderbolt Monitor blanking out

I have a MacBook Pro with 2 Thunderbolt monitors. My system is connected up like this:
MacBook Pro (running in clamshell mode) -------> Thunderbolt Port on MBP -------> Thunderbolt Display ------> Built in Display Thunderbolt Cable ------>Thunderbolt Display 2.
I also have a Thunderbolt disk drive attached to a thunderbolt port on the back of display 2.
I have a couple of problems every now and then. At times that second display blanks out for a second. I have noticed, it is most likely to happen when I put some IO on that thunderbolt disk drive. It just seems to me like the bandwidth of thunderbolt should be able to handle this.
Secondly. Sometimes when I boot up, the system considers that second display as the first which screws up my screens. I usually have to reboot to get it to work right. I notice that if I boot up with my MBP open, the system always considers the 2nd monitor in the chain the first display. Seems like it would always default to the first monitor.
Any help you could provide would be appreciated,
Rob

The Thunderbolt drive should be the first device on the chain, with the Displays being the last devices on the chain.
That should solve both of the problems.
If not, call back or post in the Apple Thunderbolt Display forum.
Good luck,
Clinton
