Date/Time On Main Menu

Hey, Apple!
Can you guys add the current date/time to the main menu of the Apple TV (2nd generation) with the next iOS update? The Apple TV is the only iOS device I own which doesn't display the current date/time.
Thanks!

Yes, I could but that's so last century.

HT1937 iCal app showing different today's date to my main menu date?

Whu my iCal today's date is not identical to the date displays on my main menu bar. It only happens today 29th Dec 2012.

Today is not December 29th, why do you believe it is?

Load external data into se-main-menu

hi,
i've tried to load external data (vars,files)into a selfmade
sony-ericsson-flash-menu for the w810i.
it is possible to load the data for the current active menu
via loadVariablesNum("application://focused", 0);
so i thought i could load some other stuff into the mainmenu.
i tried to load an swf with loadMovie/loadMovieNum.
i tried to load vars from a txt-file with
loadVariables/loadVariablesNum.
and i tried to open a webadress with getURL.
but nothing happens ... :(
the files (swf,txt) are in the same folder like the
mainMenu.(tpa\preset\system\desktop\flash)
maybe the w810 does not execute the swf in the same folder
where it is at the moment?!
is it possible to figure out where the swf is executed?
the _url command is not supported by flash-lite-1.x ...
some ideas?

Main Menu Audio - Multiple tracks play randomly aka shuffle?

I've noticed in Inspector that I can at least add more than one track to the menu audio section, but is there any way to designate the music to play on shuffle, so that each time the main menu loads (or each time the disc itself is loaded) that it doesn't always play the same menu audio?
Thanks!

I'll take a crack at this. Is this going to also going to randomize the menu on startup as well, or just after a track is played and ends? (And while on the thought, is this also going to randomize if someone hits "Menu" during the middle of playing a track?)
Usually it is best ot to start immediately with a menu, something like a track with 5 seconds of black works well, but then send the end jump to the same script. You can also assign the menu command for tracks to jump to the same script. Take a look [here|http://dvdstepbystep.com/trackmarkers.php] (press F3 key to get the general view), and highlight the track and you will see menu commands for the track and each marker in the track. Set the menu to go to the script....

How can I restore the icon items in the main menu bar (clock,time,battery)?

A few weeks ago I noticed that the items in the main menu bar are not updated, do not work, and cannot be selected. When I move the cursor over this area, the rainbow cursor appears and nothing can be selected. As a result, the time, date, battery status, finder, and sound icons in the upper right hand corner no longer function. I have shut down and restarted the computer, but the problem still persists. Any available help on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Niel, I followed your suggestion, but nothing seemed to change. I couldn't find the exact file, but found one that was very similar....com.apple.systemuiserver.plist...... I dragged the icon to the desktop and then attempted to move it to the upper right corner, but the rainbow cursor was displayed and nothing happened. Do you have any other ideas? Thanks for your assistance.

Can't access the "Apple" icon in upper main menu to shutdown my MacBook Pro running 10.6.8! Also can't open a new finder window and main menus such as File and Edit are sluggish to open or don't open at all. Doesn't happen each time I attempt to shutdow

There are some keyboard commands (shortcuts) you can use instead of having to go to the Apple menu -
Control-Eject          This brings up the Restart-Sleep-Cancel-Shutdown window.
Command-Option-Eject          This puts the machine to sleep.
Command-Control-Eject          This closes all apps and restarts the machine.
Command-Option-Control-Eject          This closes all apps and shuts the machine down.

Date & Time won't show in Menu Bar

I just installed the latest automatic update for Leopard and now in the right hand side of the menu bar only shows the Default Folder X icon and the Spotlight icon (my bluetooth, infared, airport icons and date & time are missing).
I go to the Date & Time preferences and click the option to have it appear, but when I close that window or just switch to another tab on that same window, it resets it back to being unchecked.
I know, of course, to unlock these settings and tried locking them or leaving them unlocked in hopes it would actually "lock in" my choice of settings, but with no such luck.
If anyone knows how to get my other icons back where they belong I'd appreciate that as well.

I actually don't use "Default Folder" at all, it came with Leopard.
But this problem didn't come up until the latest updates.
There was a file permissions error in running activity Monitor, though.

Double-click didn't do anything, tried to drag it up there thinking (for some reason) that might work, but no luck there as well.

No luck here, as well. Although the file I was supposed to delete in ByHost wasn't there, so maybe that has something to do with it.

IMac (2008) OS10.6.8 - Main menu freezes when running more than one application at a time. Apple and 3rd party applications - all freeze the main menu. Safe mode seems to work OK. Tried repairing permissions - didn't work.

For the past 60 days I've experienced Main Menu freeze when running more than one application at a time. iPhoto, Preview, Text Edit, Epson Scan, Firefox and Thunderbird are the apps I use almost daily. No matter what I do, when more than one is running they will freeze the Main Menu (top of the screen). I've tried booting is Safe Mode and I don't seem to have a problem. I've tried several suggestions from repairing permission (DiskUtility) to eliminating specifis login items. Nothing works. I've posted this issue on the Apple forum several times and no one else has experienced this problem. I hesitate to take my iMac to the Apple Store or a private Apple repair service until I've exhausted all of my options. Do I have any more options?

Question: Everytime an app crashes I have the option to report it to Apple - which I usually do. But I've NEVER reported a Main Menu freeze because it never asks me to
There's really no need to submit to Apple, it's just a round file cabinet on the other end, especially with 10.6 or earlier.
This sure sounds like a resource problem...
See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH7029
Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
In the Memory tab, are there a lot of Pageouts?

Date & Time in menu bar problem

Hi
OK, I cannot get my digital clock icon to display in the menu bar on top of desktop. I had it in the past but when I go to 'date & time' in system preferences, select box to click on it, and it will deselect itself somehow. End result, no digital clock in my menu bar.
Any suggestions please???
Thanks,
Maree

Choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu and enter /System/Library/CoreServices/Menu Extras/ as the folder's location; when this folder appears, double-click the item Clock or Clock.menu inside and see if it appears in the menu bar.
If the clock appears, enter ~/Library/Preferences into the Go to Folder prompt and move the file com.apple.systemuiserver.plist in that folder to the desktop. Try adding the clock again.
If the clock does not appear or the item doesn't exist, use Pacifist to extract Clock.menu from your Mac OS X installation disks and then run the combo updater for your version of Mac OS X.

Date, time and other possible items are not available in menu bar

My menu bar is not visible at the top right corner of the screen. Spotlight has also disappeared. This is true for all users and even when I reboot.
System caches have been cleared, prebindings rebuilt and all applications using the sidebar have been deleted from the system.
Is there any way of recuperating the menu bar without re-installing OS X?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Francine,
Thank you for your suggestion. I have done what you suggest and, unfortunately, the log has hundreds of errors.
I attach the logsto see if you or any other kind genious can help!! Thanks

Suggested edit to hint: Tip - Date and Time in the Menu Bar

The user tip, located here, massively overcomplicates the procedure for showing the date and time in the menu bar.
The simpler way is to do:
1. Click >System Preferences...>International>Formats.
2. Next to "Dates", click the "Customize" button.
3. Arrange the date the way you want it to appear in the menu bar (don't worry about time at this point).
4. Select everything in the date format box and copy it (⌘C).
5. Next to "Times", click the "Customize" button.
6. Select the "Medium" format.
7. Paste the time format into the box (⌘V), and customize it to appear as you wish.
8. Click OK.
That's it. No Terminal, nothing complicated.

Any chance you figured out how to do this for Snow Leopard?
I did this before, and when i migrated i could see that the change i made in Tiger, carried over, (that is there was a date in my medium clock setting) but it doesn't show in the clock in my menu bar...
Is there a fix?
Maybe Lion will bring this back... or better still offer the ability to put what we want with less complication?

HT1600 Since the latest up-date I can't see any movies. I always returns to the main menu. Is anyone else having this problem and how do I fix it?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
First you should try logging out of your iTunes Store account (settings > iTunes Store > accounts) and then back in again.
If that doesn't help, try resetting the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings). You should also try restarting your router.
If both of the above don't help, you should try a restore (Settings > General > Reset > Restore).

Date as well as time on Finder menu bar

That is, without having to click on the time. I have wanted this for years. There is plenty of space on the finder's menu bar. Any ideas?

Found it (from a prompt concerning earlier posts). The answer is: Preferences - Date & Time - Show date and time on menu bar - Date options - Show date. (I missed that).

I have checked the box "display date and time on the Menu Bar" and it does not work. Using OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 Anybody have a fix?

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.
