Displays Menu Not Functioning After Upgrade

Hey, i use another monitor with my macbook so i have the display drop down menu in the menu bar, but since upgrading to 10.5.3 the menu doesnt seem to work?
It still drops down but i can not change the options directly from it, so i have to go into settings/displays to change the resolution/mirroring ect ect?

Find the file /Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist and move it to your desktop.
Then immediately log out and log in again.
Your menu bar will reset to defaults, and the problem will be fixed.
Good luck!
P.S. Welcome to Discussions!

Energy Saver Display Sleep not working after upgrade. Why???

I upgraded to Mavericks a few days ago and since then, the screen will not blank out after the set time on the Display Sleep bar. This happens whether on battery or power. I've run Verify/Repair Disk and Permissions, and still not go. Any suggestions on what else I might do or check to get this going again? Thanks!

What are your screensaver settings? What are your energy saver settings? Will the screen at least go dark or nothing at all? What programs are running? Some programs prevent any kind of sleep while running. I once had an issue on my old iBook when sleep and screensaver where set to 5 min or less and it prevented sleep at all.
There are 2 things that can help if the source is not 3rd party related: first reset PRAM, and if that didn't do anything, reset your SMC (system management controller), but read the linked Apple Instructions, it is recommended to be only used if everything else failed.

MacBook Air battery not functioning after upgrade to Yosemite

My MacBook Air battery did not take over after the upgrade I powered off the adapter and it just died. So I had to use the power adapter to power it back on, something is wrong with the battery after the upgrade, as it was working perfectly days before on battery.

Is one of the 'etc.' a SMC reset?

Ir remote does'not function after upgrading from Vista to Windows 7

I just upgraded to Windows 7 Pro from Vista Home Premium. I was able to get most of my drivers to work; however, I was not able to find th edrivers/software for my IR remote control. Has anyone else figured this issue out, or what drivers/software I should get fix the error? Thank you.

ArtAppreciator, I have the same problem. Installed Windows 7 and now my HP USB TV Tuner is not working. Worked fine on Vista. I can get passed the signal setup but get an error when Media Center tries to detect the IR receiver. Any thoughts?

Image acquisition not functioning after upgrading computer

Hi all,
I've run into a bit of a snag with our LabVIEW program. This program was written by someone that no longer works at my company and his VI scripts and installer do not exist, at least no where that we can locate. We've migrated the executable as well as the LabVIEW runtime environment over to a new Windows 7 PC (the original computer was running Windows XP). The program loads as it should but when it comes to the image acquisition within the program, the camera image is garbled and basically useless.
Using NI MAX, I am able to detect the camera and I can set it to the settings from the original PC but the image is even scrambled inside NI MAX. The camera in question is an ATV Oscar F810C which is detected as such by NI MAX. I've updated the Vision runtime to the February 2014 build available on NI.com (about a 2GB download). Here are some screenshots of the original PC's settings in NI MAX:
In reality, the image in NI MAX should look like this:
On the new system with the same settings it looks like this:
And when running the program on Windows 7 it looks like this:
If I change the Video Mode to one of the lower res ones, such as the first greyscale 1024 x 768 option, the image stops being scrambled inside NI MAX and I'm able to see the image properly. However, the image acqusition inside the program still does the same thing. Without having any information on the contents of the program or access to the original files, it would appear to be some kind of driver issue since the setup works fine on the old system.
Any ideas on what may be the issue?

Search bar/Action menu not showing after upgrade to 4.2

I had a classic report in apex 4.1 then i upgraded to apex 4.2 and converted the classic report to interactive report. Now i can see the Search Bar under report attributes and check it with all options= Yes but it doesn't appear on the report when i run the page,
i had other issues with developer tools but thats working now except the Action Bar is missing...
what could be the issue here?
using theme 24/cloudy
thanks.

Hi,
I had this issue when we upgraded to 4.2, I did the below change, Plz try this, and if it works for you, that should be great. Change the Image Prefix to /i/ in older versions I think it was something like /image/
Home->Application Builder->Application 105->Edit Application Definition
Name
Application
105

20" Apple Cinema Display not recognised after upgrading to OS 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion)

20" Apple Cinema Display not recognised after upgrading to OS 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion).
Hello Apple! Anybody there? How long does your community have to wait for a solution?
The same problem has been unsolved for months now. No statements from Apple either.
I was told today to wait for 10.8.3. This might solve the issue. I can not belive my ears.
My MacBookPro 4,1, Intel Core 2 Duo with 2.5 GHz Processor and Graphics chip: NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT, will not talk to the exter. 20" Cinema Display ( Model Number A1081 ). The screen stays black. Resetting the PRAM did not help. I removed the 'com.apple.windowserver.plist' and the 'com.apple.windowserver.OE35739etc,etcxxxxxxxxxxx.plist', but that did not help either.
Any other solutions, or do I have to downgrade or give up on Apple Computers alltogether after using them for over 25 years?

I found out that I needed a $100 mini displayport to dual-link dvi adapter to make my $30" cinema display work with my macbook pro
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dvi-ada pter?fnode=51
When I found out that solved the problem, I took it back because that was too expensive for a stupid adapter, and it still didn't work perfectly.

G4 AGP Graphics - 2nd display won't work after upgrading from os 10.2

I have a desktop G4 AGP Graphics with two displays. When I was running os 9-10.2, the second display worked fine, but after upgrading the os (now running 10.4), the second display still works, but has turned gray and pixelated.
When I take a screen shot, the picture shows that both displays appear clear (and in color).
Am I missing something? Thanks in advance for any suggestions

so do you have 2 different video cards driving two different monitors? or is it One video card with 2 displays?
the info you listed isnt very detailed but it does tell me you got an ATI video card with 16MB VRAM.
I assume that thats the Stock AGP 2x graphics card that came the The PowerMac G4 AGP graphics model.
why is your display set to 8bit depth? a stock 2x AGP card with 16MB VRAM should be able to support 16bit or 24bit depth even at 1024 x 768 res.
the info says also Core image not support as well as Quartz Extreme no supported. Which is significant because it could be why the 2nd Monitor doesnt display properly with Tiger.
under 10.2 there were less stringent requirements for driving video.
OSX 10.4 Tiger is much more advanced OS and has higher graphics cards requirements now.
I could be wrong, but I think you may need a newer video card that supports Quartz Extreme and Core image.
hopefully someone else will run by this topic and offer some insight aside from my own.

Internal speakers not working after upgrading to Maverics

internal speakers not working after upgrading to Maverics

There are many possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article. Don't skip any of the steps. It's the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem.
2. Run Software Update and make sure you have a fully up-to-date installation of OS X.
3. If you've installed an application called "Memory Clean" or any other third-party software that is supposed to "clean" or "purge" memory automatically, remove it according to the developer's instructions and restart. You should do that even if the software is not causing the problem, because it's useless.
4. If you've installed a software equalizer called "Boom" or anything similar, update or delete it and restart.
5. If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes (or from other applications via third-party software such as "Airfoil"), deselect it.
6. Launch the application "Audio MIDI Setup" by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search and selecting it in the results (it should be at the top.) Select the Output tab. If the Mute boxes are checked, uncheck them. Move the Volume sliders all the way to the right.
7. If a red light is coming from the audio-out port, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
8. Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard and mouse, if applicable. If more than one display is connected, disconnect all extra ones. Restart and test.
9. If you have a MacBook Air, turn off Bluetooth and restart.
10. Start up in safe mode. Don't log in; just restart as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
11. Reset the NVRAM.
12. Reset the SMC.
13. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
14. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

ITunes will not launch after upgrade--click, bounce bounce, nada

iTunes will not launch after upgrade--rebooted nothing--2 bounce icon
then shut down all and unplugged, restarted--no change, iTunes still will not launch after upgrade
iTunes current version
on imac w/10.6.8

I have the same issue.
Allready uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, but the same problem occurs.
Icon keeps bouncing, and all that's visible is the first menu-item in the top menu bar, named iTunes. Nothing is clickable though.
The iPhone Configuration Utility doesn't seem to work either, it crashes on uploading an app to my iPhone. I guess it's using some of iTunes' libs or something.
Does anyone know how to get iTunes working again? I'm getting pretty desperate over here...
Thanks!

Photoshop CS5 - colour settings in Print menu not working after update Mac OSX maverick

After upgrading to Maverick OSX on the iMac printing from CS5 via Epson R3880 is not working correctly. In Print Settings menu the drop downs for Colour and Colour Settings are greyed out. I already re-installed PS and installed the new drivers from epson. Any ideas?

but after choosing PS manages color, the options in the print menu for choosing color (color or b&W) and color settings are not available anymore. They used to be the last three years I printed with photoshop/epson 3880.
Instead they are greyed out now.

If Photoshop managed color, then the controls in the printer driver are supposed to be grayed out - that's how Apple specifies drivers to work (because only one party should be managing the print color).
So what you're describing is perfectly normal.
