Find menu item without identifier (ID)

hello
I have an extension in jsxbin adds that 2 items to the context menu. I want to overwrite one of these items from another extension written by me in jsx, the problem is that I have no the iddentifier of that command menu.
is there any way to delete that entry from the menu and replace it with mine without the id? MenuElement.find () only works with the id ... I found nothing more
I tried to see the contents of the contextual menu to try to list all identifiers but have not succeeded.
thank you

change
set_menu_item_property('SETUP_MENU'||vfnm,enabled,property_false);to
set_menu_item_property('SETUP_MENU.'||vfnm,enabled,property_false);but better reference by id:
set_menu_item_property(mi_id,enabled,property_false);

Cannot find menu item:Invalid Id

Hi there,
I am trying to access the menu attached to my form by setting the enabled properties of menu items based on privileges.
I use the following set_menu_item_property:
SET_MENU_ITEM_PROPERTY('menu.item_name', ENABLED, PROPERTY_FALSE);
But I get an error message saying:
"Cannot find menu item:Invalid Id"
Can somebody help me please with this.
Thanks.

the error says you have not put the menu item name properly...what is the structure of the menu...? one thing you can do is in object navigator locate the menu item name and identify its parent. and use it in the command like for eg.
set_menu_item_property('adminmenu.users',enabled,property_false);KK

Just for clearification, and I think we've been through this before, and for the sake of an academic argument (), I don't agree the plist is the most important.
I don't recall discussing it before, but clearly we should.
I say the launchagent is the most important because nothing can get executed (launched) without it. All the plist does is define a bunch of environment variables that the executing code (launched by the launchagent) uses. If the code doesn't execute the environment variables are just a bunch of "noise". Explain to me why the definition of the env variables is more important than the launcher. It's splitting hairs of course since both should be removed but I still want to know why you consider it more important than the launcher.
After reviewing the evidence, I'm ready to conceed that the launcher, the executable and the hidden file are the most important. My statement goes way back to where this all started in late September with the revelation here that there might be a hidden file called environment.plist that would prevent login. It is also the most difficult to find and delete. Apparently if the dylib is not where it belongs you can't log in.
According to Linc, who seems to be the only one here who has analysed the installed version, said the environment.plist was blank, but Andy said it set an environmental variable for the dylib, which I believe since that's what it's function is.
I don't think we know what happens if the LaunchAgent remains but the environment and dylib are removed. What normally happens is that a few milliseconds tick off while it tries to find the dylib followed by an entry in the system.log and nothing else.
IMHO, we have way too little experience with this thing to declare any component more important than all others, they seem to be tightly integrated. I believe the log file is only there to hold a unique ID code which may be an encrypted version of the UUID, machine and architecture codes. That makes it least important in my view.

FRM : 41067 Cannot find menu item id ( forms 10g Menus/Forms Conversion )

Hi All ,
We have menus converted into forms 10g using the forms migration assistant FMA ( frmplsqlconv ) . Now , we had the menus (.mmb) which had used Shared Menus.
After conversion observed that there were some duplicate copies of the shared menus created automatically and each reference where this shared menu was used was replaced by the newly created ones.
Now , when I open the form that uses the menu I get the following error :
FRM : 41067 Cannot find menu item id
On debuggin observed the the above error was generated at :
set_menu_item_property(SHARED_MENU.ITEM,.... )
Not sure how this worked in forms earlier version and not working in 10g now.
Could anyone please let me know how to go about to fix this issue and why is this happening at the first point.
Is re-creating the menu from scratch the only option to resolve the issue ?
Please advise ..
Thanks ,

Using AppleScript to click menu items without access for assistive devices?

Hi all,
Is it possible to have AppleScript 'click' menu items without having 'Enable access for assistive devices' enabled?
My script works fine with it on but with it off I just get this:
'System Events got an error: Access for assistive devices is disabled.'
Pretty clear and easy to fix. I don't really want assistive devices enabled, though ...
Any ideas or is this just not possible?
Sorry if this is a n00b question - I'm kinda new to the world of Mac and OS X ...
Thanks!

Ok cool - thanks for the reply.
I've figured out how to set the bounds of the window I'm talking about:
tell application "Transmit" to set bounds of window "Transcript" to {61, 1166, 2559, 1421}
I'll have a hack and see if I can figure out how to open the Transcript window without needing assistive devices enabled.
Thanks again!

Finder menu items

My Finder menu bar has three items I can't use: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and a drive eject icon.
I have no Bluetooth gear. My stereo has Wi-Fi, but apparently I can't connect to it without a router. The eject icon says "no drives" even when I have a USB drive mounted.
Is there a way to remove these items from the menu bar?

Uncheck:
Eject button will only show something to eject when you have a CD or DVD inserted.

How do I create a keyboard shortcut for a nested finder menu item?

Specifically I'm trying to create a keyboard shortcut for Finder>Services>Mail>Send File.
Any help would be appreciated.

pmasitti,
Under System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts, click on the "+" sign. From the drop-down menu choose Application: Finder, Menu Title: "Send File" (without the quotes), Keyboard Shortcut: whatever.
Close system System Preferences and quit the Finder for the change to take effect. You can easily quit and relaunch the Finder from the Apple Menu > Force Quit. Select Finder and click on the Relaunch button.
For the action to complete, select the Finder item before pressing your keyboard short cut.
Worked for me... good luck!

Autoplay to next menu items without making it an autoplay movie

I have created my dvd menus.. I have 6 different movies within the dvd.. when you click on any of the menus it plays that movie and then returns to the main menu.. Is their a way to have it just automatically go to the next menu item? I know how to create an autoplay movie, but that just plays the entire dvd... what if someone wants to start with the third movie.. I can't find anywhere to allow this to happen,, any help would be great..
thanks,

Bengt is correct about there being a way to put videos into the slideshow well of iDVD and then they will play consecutively. Here is a visual from Old Toad showing how to do this:
http://homepage.mac.com/toad.hall/.Pictures/Forum/iDVD8movieSS.png
You could also put all the videos into one iMovie and then mark each one as a chapter in the movie. Then you would have the options of playing the movie or selecting which chapter to view. As with commercial DVDs, selecting a chapter will play the movie from that chapter to the end of the movie.
The only way to have both is to do what Bengt said and have one long movie for the 'play all' option and separate individual movies that can be selected separately and played, returning to the menu after each one.

IPod Touch Self Selects Menu Items Without Touching Screen - 2nd Gen

With my iPod Touch sitting flat and motionless on a desk, without even touching it, menu items on the screen are self selecting, as if a ghost were touching the screen and selecting the item. It happens on the lower left portion of the screen on whatever screen is currently displayed. It will continue to select whatever item is in that area of the screen, advancing, or going back, until nothing is in that area of the screen to be selected. This "self Selection" happens at various times, from 1 second to a minute, from when the screen is displayed. Usually at about 5-10 second intervals, but it varies.
Here is what I have done thus far in attempts to "fix" the problem. None of them have worked and the problem still remains.
- Restored the iPod from within iTunes (twice)
- Complete Reset/Erase of the Touch on the unit itself (twice)
- Ensured the battery was fully charged
- Synced it with two entirely separate iTunes Libraries on 2 different computers
- Cleaned the screen VERY well to ensure that no film or residue was on it (it is squeaky clean)
- Slightly tried to flexed (very gently) the Touch to see if it would change this from happening
- The shake feature is not the issue (turned off and not touching the iPod Touch)
- Searched the web pretty thoroughly for answers
Any thoughts...?

You have the "Halloween Syndrome!!"
Good news though, it should clear up when Halloween is over with.
Seriously, it sounds like your screen digitizer needs replacing. Contact a third-party repair service. It will be cheaper to fix that going through Apple.

FRM-41067: Cannot find menu item: invalid Id

Hello,
I have a menu, when i try to execute query by entering a value i received this message. i checked all my code, everything seems correct. someone can tell me what it could be wrong in my menu?

I have a menu, when i try to execute query by entering a value i received this message. What does that mean? How do you execute the query? By choosing a menu item? Using the keyboard?
i checked all my code, everything seems correct. ?I also always hope so, but in most cases there in an error.
someone can tell me what it could be wrong in my menu?I guess that in some trigger either in the menu itself or in the form which the menu is attached to (or in a pll attached to that form) there is some SET_MENU_ITEM_PROPERTY which refers to some not existing menu-item.

Muse 2014 -sub menu items appearing on roll-over etc.

Hi, complete newbie, so sorry if this has already been covered elsewhere. Only started using Muse about 1 month ago and now using Muse 2014 - using horizontal menu widget and discovered how it now shows sub-menus when hovering over the main menu item- I find this great!
I want a 'Contact Me' page with a basic form and this is not a problem, however, I want the sub-menus to appear when hovering over the other main menu items, but not the contact me page - might be completely off here, but created a 'Thank you' page as a child page of the contact me page and only want this displayed (not as a sub-menu choice when hovering over the contact me main menu item) when they have clicked the submit button on the form (I know how to set this re-direction in the forms options). Have tried playing with menu on the master page - switching off the edit together and changing settings on only the contact me menu item - without success- seems to apply to all main menu items.
I would like to know how to achieve sub-menus on other menu items - but not on contact me item; or whether I am going about trying to have a 'Thank you' response when someone submits the contact me form in the completely wrong way - can this be better achieved by other means?
I would really appreciate your advice and help. My published site is 'onyerbikegeordie.uk' with the main menus - except not with a contact me page as yet, but would give you an idea of what I am trying to achieve except for a contact me page.
Sorry for the long post, but thanks for reading and in anticipation of your help!

What is/are the keyboard shortcut if I want to pull down a menu item?

What is the keyboard command to pull down a finder menu item? Say I want
to browse the finder menus, without a mouse?

Although that's listed in the document, It does nothing on my machine and it is enabled in Keyboard Shortcuts. So, if you know the steps to get it working, that would be appreciated. Wired, extended Apple keyboard.
EDIT: Need CONTROLfnF2, which requires two hands, to make it work. IMO, it's much asier to just use the mouse.

How do I remove "Scan with ClamXav" in Lion? I cannot find a contextual menu item folder in at home/library.

How do I remove "Scan with ClamXav" in Lion? I cannot find a contextual menu item folder in at home/library. I installed and removed ClamXav from the Mac app store.
Thanks.

Thanks! AppTrap mentioned in the linked article got rid of it for me.
Actually, it didn't. With Snow Leopard and Lion, the contextual menu is provided by a built in "service" within the ClamXav application itself.
If you downloaded ClamXav from the AppStore, all you need to do is trash it and reboot.
If you downloaded the full version from the web you need to first run the "ClamAV Engine REMOVER" script that comes on the ClamXav_2.x.x.dmg. Then trash the ClamXav application, empty the trash and reboot.
There are also one or two preferences that can be found in ~/Library/Preferences/ that start with "uk.co.markallen.clamxav..." that take up minimal space and don't do anything without the application. AppTrap probably found those.

How to disable menu items through c# in adobe x standard. I didn't find the required APIs.

Hi
We are working on a desktop application on C# which uses Adobe Express 5.0. to view the PDF files. Recently we had an issue reported that PDFs created in Adobe 9 are not opening up. So we decided to upgrade to Acrobat Adobe X Standard. Now the issue is that I have to suppress controls (tool bars(or Panels), menu items) for which I'm using the below code which worked in express 5.0 but not on Adobe X. Also I want to view the toolbar by default instead of the translucent menu at the bottom of the page.
Acrobat.CAcroApp.ToolButtonRemove("SaveFileAs");
Acrobat.CAcroApp.MenuItemRemove("Quit");
Please help.
Thanks,
vinay

Hi
We used javascript to find out the names of the menu items that are present in the Adobe 9.0 Std. I presume that it would work even for Adobe 10.o as well. After that in the .NET C# code we have used App.RemoveMenutItem ("<<MenuItemName>>") to disable all the menu items that we dont want You can search for javascript references for Acrobat and you would find many.
Also I've figured out another way where you remove the .api files from your plugins folder, however I'm not sure if it would create any further problems. This is route is not taken, atleast for now.
Please post here the route taken by you.
Thanks.
