Edit PDF dropdown menu doesn't remove item

I recently tried a program from Bare Bones software called Yojimbo. I didn't see the value of the program and removed it. However, now I have a menu item in my print dialog PDF dropdown menu that is for saving the PDF to Yojimbo. I've done a Spotlight search of my drive and have removed every instance of Yojimbo. But, the menu item is still there. When I click on the edit menu option it will remove it but it's not really gone because the next time I select an option... there it is again. Where are those things stored? How can I get this item removed from the menu? Help!

Thanks for the help. I was telling my son about the problem and he found it in about 2 minutes. I had gone to the library/pdf services folder and it wasn't there, as I mentioned. BUT, I hadn't gone to the library/pdf services folder IN MY USER. Come to find out, there was an alias file there and we threw it away and ... voila, it was out of the menu list. My question now regards WHY Spotlight didn't find it. It was an alias pointing to the root library file. I guess Spotlight can't find aliases. Hmmmmmmm!
Well, the problem is solved and I thank you for your kind assistance.

Is it possible to change the order of the Print | PDF dropdown menu?

From the Print dialog box, one option is the PDF dropdown menu in the lower left. The two options I use most often are second and eighth on the list. Can the list order be rearranged?

I wasn't able to find a way to rearrange this, but you might want to submit feedback about this: http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html

Editing iChat status menu doesn't show in menubar icon

Instead of having various status menu options ("surfing the web", "at home", "out to lunch", "in a meeting:", etc.) I prefer to edit the list down to just "available" and "away"
When I edit the status menu from the buddy list drop down (by deleting the other options) my changes are reflected in the buddy list. However, the menubar icon still shows all of the preset options "surfing the web" etc.
Does anyone else notice this? Is this expected behaviour?

I later went into my com.apple.iChat.plist file and found two variables - "CustomAvailableMessages" and "CustomAwayMessages". After deleting all but the first blank line, they went away. (Make sure you make a backup!)
I also deleted them from com.apple.iChat.StatusMessages.plist file.
It was tricky, but I finally managed to get it so I only have available and away (in addition to the current iTunes song) as away messages in my menu bar. After I deleted the above, I had to go in and delete my custom edited away/available messages in the buddy list menu.
MAKE SURE YOU MAKE A BACKUP OF THOSE FILES BEFORE YOU TINKER WITH THEM. You can use TextEdit I believe, but I use PlistEditPro to edit them.

How do I import a web page as PDF? The import feature in my file dropdown menu doesn't seem to be working.

If I remember correctly, firefox for linux previously had an option to import a web page as PDF. Now it doesn't seem to be working that way anymore. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx with the most recent Firefox program.

That's just the standard notice when you install an addon from the AMO web site.
Wasn't the '''Install Now''' button active?
Sometimes you have to wait for up to 4 seconds for that button to be active - IOW, not greyed-out.

Acrobat Standard XI - How to edit pdf created and signed with Adobe Standard 6.0 on another computer?

Hi
Is this even possible? I cant edit PDF-documents because I cannot remove the signature. Can I transfer digital signature from Adobe Standard 6.0?
Please help me out
//Anders

Acrobat versions prior to 9 had a bug which allowed you to do what you did. In Acrobat 9 this bug was fixed. In order to do what you want you need to certify (apply special certification digital signature with your certificate -- it is "Certify (Visible/Invisible)" choice in the "Work with Certificates") your document first. In the process of certification you can specify which modification permissions you allow the users of your document to make after signing. Certification signature must be the first signature in the document.

How do I remove items Clear Menu doesn't

QuickTime Player and TextEdit (maybe others) do Clear the menu Like TextEdit>File>Open Recent>ClearMenu. HOWEVER, when I right click on Text Edit and QuickTime Player the recent listed items still exist! The QuickTime Player movies may not play, but the TextEdit did open. I'd like to totally remove the "cleared items" any ideas?
Thanks

Repairing the permissions of a home folder in Lion is a complicated procedure. I don’t know of a simpler one that always works.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
chmod -R -N ~
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. When a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) appears below what you entered, it’s done. You may see a few error messages about an “invalid argument” while the command is running. You can ignore those. If you get an error message with the words “Permission denied,” enter this:
sudo !!
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up.
Next, boot from your recovery partition by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the recovery desktop appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
In the Terminal window, enter “resetpassword” (without the quotes) and press return. A Reset Password window opens. You’re not going to reset the password.
Select your boot volume if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.

Can I remove items from the Services menu?

I think the subject line says it all: can I remove items from the Services menu? I have a number of items in the Services menu that I never use and I would like to make the menu shorter to make it easier to access the items that I do use.

There are a couple of things you could try. There's an application called Service Scrubber that is supposed to do this. But the web page says it's for 10.4, though it says it might work on 10.3
Alternatively, you can edit the Info.plist or Info-macos.plist file in each application bundle to remove its service from the Services menu. This post at Mac OS X Hints has a pretty detailed description of how to do it. I tried this on my iMac running 10.3.9 and it worked just fine.
Don't know about the Service Scrubber app, but if you edit the plist files, you'll need to log out and log back in before the changes take effect.
Also, if you decide to edit the files by hand, I'd suggest just renaming NSServices by adding an "x" to the front or something, rather than deleting the item completely. That makes the changes easier to reverse.

Removing items from sheet doesn't change SQL

Discoverer desktop 10.1.2.1
When I create a sheet, run it, then remove items from the sheet, and then refresh it, the SQL doesn't change (items/columns that were removed remain in the select statement). They (columns) are removed from the resulting report, but it's throwing off my results (number of rows due to summary items). In other words, I had detail numbers, replace them with summary numbers, now it should be grouping by the detail items, but it's isn't. Basically, the tool isn't removing those items from the SQL.
Has anyone seen this?
Thanks in advance.

I'll chime in on this one - we're seeing this same behavior as well. I can reproduce the problem at will like so:
1) Create a new sheet.
2) Pick a table, any table, that has a data point.
3) To this new sheet, add the DETAIL of the data point, and one other attribute.
4) View the results - they are good.
5) Realize you made a misteak, go to Edit Sheet, remove the DETAIL and replace it with the SUM of that same data point.
6) View the results, and become dismayed that they are not grouping at all.
7) Click on View->SQL Inspector, and observe the detail item is still in the SQL (along with the SUM) despite having removed it in the sheet editor.
8) Edit sheet - remove all items leaving absolutely everything blank (no selected items, no columns, no calculations, no sorts, nothing)
9) Click on View->SQL Inspector, and observe the detail item is still in the SQL. That's wrong!
If that's not a bug, I'm czar of all the Russias.

Neither "Bookmark this page" nor "Edit Bookmarks" appears in the Bookmarks dropdown menu. How do I restore it/them?

"Bookmark this page" disappeared from the Bookmarks dropdown menu after I added a bookmark. The help pages I have consulted say that "Bookmark this page" is sometimes replaced by "Edit bookmarks" but I have never seen this choice.

What do you see in the Bookmarks menu?
Does it make a difference of what is shown (it should) if you open the Bookmarks menu with the mouse or use the Alt+B shortcut?
You can try to reinstall Firefox in case something has gone wrong with an update.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
*Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.

But that is not an option when you select a navigation button

Embedded pdf displays on top of my dropdown menu

I have a dropdown menu and some of my content is displayed via an embedded pdf. The client really does not want an extra window to have to open for this .. very clunky. I have spent the better part of my weekend trying to solve this problem .. z-index doesn't do it .. iframes do not do it .. nothing I have found that is supposed to work has actually worked.
Finally I find this:
Adobe PDF documents are not indexable. It is impossible to get any web content (including drop down menus) to display on top of these objects. Until Adobe adds a means of displaying web content over embedded PDF files, the PDF or the web content (in your case, menu) will need to be repositioned. Or alternatively, you can have the PDF document open inside of a new window. Unfortuantely, there are no other options available due to the way Adobe renders PDF files inside of web pages.
True? If so .. why? If there is a solution to this, please do share.
Thanks!

I just solved this problem myself (I think).
First, make sure you have updated your spry to 1.6. Once you
do that, then find the "hacker" info at the bottom of the menu code
that creates an iframe behind your menu bar--the background is set
to white--change to transparent and should solve your problem.
Or you can change the javascript for menu bars (under
spryassests for spry menu bars)--there is part of the code that
says this.createIframelayer(menu)--if you comment out this by
placing // before it in the code, the white background goes away.
However, I would recommend trying updating first and not messing
with the javascript as it will affect how your menu looks in older
IE versions.

How can I remove items from the open a recent file menue.

How can I remove items from the "Open a Recent File" menue. Many other applications allow the clearing of that file . Is this possible in Adobe Reader 10.1.2 ? If so how?

See this previous topic: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3759596
It is for Acrobat, but the registry entries are similar for Reader.

I just started a free trial of the Adobe XI product that allows me to create an editable PDF. I'm done creating the form and ready to export it. When I click Export PDF from the File menu, it says Adobe encountered an unexpected error. What am I doing wrong?

Good to know — there is no such application as "Adobe XI".
"Adobe" is the name of the company.
"XI" is indicative of the use of either Acrobat XI or Reader XI.
Neither Acrobat XI Pro (for which Adobe provides a free, fully functional 30-day trial) nor Adobe Reader XI (the free to download and use PDF viewer that Adobe provides) have an "Export PDF" entry under "File".
"Export PDF" only is present in Adobe Reader XI over on the right on the "Tools" panel.
The "Tools" panel provides a way for a user of Adobe Reader XI to connect to various By Subscription online services (gotta pay eh).
Export PDF is one of these. A subscription lets you send a PDF file to the online internet service (aka "cloud" service). The service then exports to a supported file format (Word / Excel / ...) and the user selects / directs where the output file is to be saved on the user's local machine.
Of course to use any of the online subscription services one must have an active (paid up in full) subscription to the service.
So ---- As described the puzzle pieces don't fit eh.
What specific Adobe (the company) applications are you using?
Acrobat XI Pro? Adobe Reader XI? Both?
Be well....
