Finder Bar/Menu Bar color

So the other day, I was in Best buy and an Apple Store near me and I saw an new iMac with the Menu bar color changed to black and the font changed to a orange or gold color. Anyone know how to do this? Not necessarily those colors but something other than white. It looked really sweet.

I think your talking about OS X's Universal Access Preference Pane in System Preferences.
System Preferences>Universal Access>Seeing>Display>White on Black.
Enjoy.

Why can't I find the menu bar when I open iTunes on my Windows 8 lap top

I have downloaded some music in iTunes on my iPod Touch [version 8.1.2]. I noticed that the iTunes also appears on my Windows 8 laptop and when I sign in the music I purchased appears but I cannot download it because the computer is, "not authorised". My account details show that 3 devices are connected to iTunes. I checked on Google how to authorize a computer and it says: choose store > authorize this computer from the menu bar but I cannot find a menu bar. Can anyone please tell me what to do?

Press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.

Top 2-3 files displayed in Finder are hidden under Finder's menu bar. How do I modify view to correct this?

Recently updated to Yosemite 10.10.2 on MacBook Pro (early 2011) and now when I open a folder in Finder, the top 2-3 files displayed are hidden under Finder's menu bar. I can scroll up to see the files, but they snap back under the menu bar preventing me from selecting or opening them. This problem occurs in the following Finder view preferences, "icons" "in lists" and "in columns" but not "Cover Flow". Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.

This sounds like a Windows thing ( You can post a photo and I can tell you for certain). Those folders are Windows system created folders that your computer has had since it was installed, all Firefox does is use the Windows File picker, which is what you see when you open that window. So, to customize you'd have to do that from Windows Explorer (not Firefox).
The Window should however remember what folder you were in last.

My screen is magnified on full and i can't find the menu bar and the doc.

Hello, Melorw44.
Try pressing the <esc> (Escape) key.
If <esc> doesn't clear your full screen, restart your Mac. When you launch Safari after the restart, the normal sized window should open.
BTW, three finger double tap applies to trackpads. From your responses, I infer that you are not using a trackpad. However, if you are using a wireless mouse (or other wireless pointing device), low batteries in the device might be causing your inability to control your view.

Application Still Stuck on my Finder Bar

I got dupped when I phoned Apple for a service call and was sent to some other country for "Tech help" in what I was told was the correct department. They sold me what I thought was an Apple Service contract . . nope! I'm not sure what I paid for. But, they also told me I needed to get rid of Trend Micro and purchase their Virus Barrier anti virus program for Mac as it was the "best". They then used LogMeIn to uninstall Trend Micro. However, each time I start up my computer, MacBook Air XOS Lion 10.7.5, the little Trend Micro icon appears on the top of my screen in the Finder bar. It has a yellow triangle with an exclaimation point in it. My computer then freezes as it seems to be trying to scan for viruses at start up along with the new virus program. The colored wheel shows up when I put my mouse over it. Eventually, I'm able to click on the menu option to quit it, but it happens each time I start up. Does anyone know how I can permanently delete this little icon? There is no longer Trend Micro in my App Folder, so I can't go through the uninstall process again. Help please!!

Sounds like you didn't actually call Apple. There are companies out there that mislead you into believing that they represent Apple when they really don't. See Beware of fake tech support.
It also sounds like the company you called did some inept fumbling around with your computer remotely. Trend Micro is a very different app than VirusBarrier, so it sounds like they may have actually installed two different anti-virus programs, which is a bad idea. (You should never have two different anti-virus programs doing active scanning at the same time, as that can cause problems.) Regarding the need for anti-virus software, see my Mac Malware Guide.
Unfortunately, at this point, the company you called has had access to your computer via LogMeIn. It is unknown at this point what they may have done, and unless you trust this company absolutely (which should not be the case given the circumstances), you should assume that your machine is compromised. Though unlikely, it's still entirely possible that they are watching every little thing you do. Worse, there's no anti-virus software out there that will detect all possible back door software. Anti-virus software is generally mostly concerned with detecting malware, not legit software that may have been installed and/or configured maliciously by someone with access to the computer.
If I were you, I would erase your hard drive and reinstall everything (the system and your apps) from scratch. The only thing that should be restored from backups is your documents... no system files, apps, settings files, etc.
You also should talk to your credit card company and see about disputing any charges made by the company you called.

CR for VS 2005 - Bar Chart - Bar colors

Hi,
I'm creating a report in Visual Studio 2005 and have a bar chart in it. I've searched the forums but can't seem to find out how to change the colors of the Series bars.
If anybody has any ideas or suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Ron

Apparently, the version of CR that ships with Visual Studio doesn't allow much in the way of customization. I have since upgraded to CR 2008 and can now change the bar colors.

My macbook screen doesn't work so I have connected it to the TV and now nothing works, I can't see the dock or the finder bar, no folders on desktop either. I don't know what to do!

Do you see anything on the TV?
If you just see your desktop, then your MacBook is defaulting to extended display mode. Try pressing the Command + F1 keys to see if you get the menu bar and other icons.

Text appears in the FIND bar rather than website fields. How can I fix this?

When I type text into a search box in a website such as Google, ebay or Amazon, the text does not appear in the field; instead the firefox FIND bar automatically pops up and the text appears in it instead. How can I prevent this from happening?

Usually if you click in the field, Firefox will interpret the typing correctly.
Could you check to see whether you have this feature turned and, if you do, turn it off:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General mini-tab > "Search for text when I start typing"
If that was on and you turn it off, does that fix the problem?
If not, could you try the same pages in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Any difference?

How to get rid of finder bar in secondary display on Mavericks

I'm use the secondary display but I don't want the finder bar to be shown how do I delete that option?

Ah - thank you very much for reminding me about that!
I'd seen that option a couple of days back but hadn't pursued it because I didn't want to do the logout/login required to activate the change at that time. Since then I've been putting up with the secondary menu bar and - more significantly - apps which used to exclusively open/live on the secondary display defaulting to the primary display. That was really beginning to bug me and has also been solved by this change so, thanks again for the reminder.

Whenever i open Firefox i cant type anything because the "find" bar at the bottom alwayse pops up. How can i remove that or fix this issue?

So like I said, Everytime I open firefox as soon as I open a tab the "find" bar automatically pops up and I cant type. It wont let me close it at all. Ive searched everywhere to see if I can disable it from automatically coming up but came up empty. Ive reset everything back to is "original" settings but that didn't work either.

Have you had this problem for some time or did it just start recently?
This occurs with an empty new tab (Ctrl+t) or with any new tab (e.g., including clicking a link)?
Is the bar labeled Find or Quick Find?
Find: This bar can be opened using Ctrl+f, but obviously you are not typing Ctrl+f.
Quick Find: The shortcut to open this bar is a / character. Firefox also has an option to open the Quick Find bar as soon as you type ''any'' character. (See: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/advanced-settings-browsing-network-updates-encryption#w_accessibility Accessibility options]) But this is turned off by default, and it doesn't sound as though you are typing a character when this happens.
Hmmm... by default, if the cursor is in either bar, it can be closed by pressing the Esc key. But I suppose that isn't working either (or it reopens very quickly).
If you view the Add-ons page, do you have any extensions?
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category

Bar color in report

Hi,
We are using Crystal Reports XI R2. We have a requirement wherein we would like to programmatically set color or bars in a chart report. I was going through the API reference but could not find any class that could help. Could someone point me in the right direction?
This is apart of a C#.net application using VS2005 and SQL Server 2005.
Thanks!

Hi John,
Its not possible to programatically change bar color in reports.
See this business objects note # 1197468 .
Content of Note is here:
Symptom
Is it possible to change the line colors in a line chart or the bar colors in a bar chart at run time using Visual Studio .NET?
Cause
The chart analyzer is a third party tool that Crystal is licensed to use in the designer. That means in the Crystal Designer you have a lot of chart functionality, but at runtime the chart exists as part of the report object and the analyzer is not present. That means you have a few formatting options but no creation functionality.
Resolution
Using the Crystal reprots SDK for .Net it is not possible to change the line colors in a line chart or the bar colors in a bar chart at run time.
The .Net sdk provides minimal ability for accessing chart objects. Using Chart Object you can only set properties such as Height, Width, Border, etc., at runtime and retrieve information about the Chart Object in a report.
Regards,
Shweta

Disappearing Items on Finder Bar

Folks,
I don't know what I may have done, but the items on my finder bar have all disappeared, including the clock app, the wireless indicator, the Spotlight icon keeps flashing and then disappearing... The only items displayed are the menu names (Finder, File, Edit, etc) and the SMS Fan Control app. Yes, I am referring to the menu up on top of the desktop. Is there a file I should delete to reset the items on the Finder bar?
Any help would be much, much appreciated. Oh, and by the way, it works fine on other accounts, except mine (Admin). Thanks all.

The always useful and helpful Apple Forum Folks. Thank you so much! That solved my problem. Truly appreciated. Now I can sleep in peace
Cheers.

Controlling Chart Bar Colors

Hello, I'm just beginning to add charts to my application and I'm finding it difficult to control Chart bar color dynamically. I would like Red, Yellow, Green bars based on limits on the Bar value. Example Values under 5 may be Green, 5 - 9 Yellow, and over 10 Red. The HTML chart appears to either be Random or one Specifc color, and the SVG Chart appears to only be a sinlge color. Both are chosen on the attribute screen of the chart.
Anyone done Dynamic Chart Bar coloring? - Thanks

Hi, and welcome!
Have a look at: [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=44602:2]
To get this on a Flash Chart, I have:
1 - Set the chart type to: Stacked 2D Column
2 - Set the Color Scheme setting to: Custom
3 - Set the Custom Colors to: red,yellow,green
4 - Created THREE series (with a maximum of 15 rows each) with the following SQL statements:
Series 1:
SELECT NULL LINK, ENAME LABEL, CASE WHEN SAL < 1000 THEN SAL ELSE 0 END VALUE FROM EMP WHERE SAL IS NOT NULL ORDER BY ENAME
Series 2:
SELECT NULL LINK, ENAME LABEL, CASE WHEN SAL BETWEEN 1000 AND 2000 THEN SAL ELSE 0 END VALUE FROM EMP WHERE SAL IS NOT NULL ORDER BY ENAME
Series 3:
SELECT NULL LINK, ENAME LABEL, CASE WHEN SAL > 2000 THEN SAL ELSE 0 END VALUE FROM EMP WHERE SAL IS NOT NULL ORDER BY ENAME
As long as my SQL is correct and the SAL value ranges don't overlap, each ENAME entry will appear in one, and only one, series - for the other two series, the value will be reset to 0, so nothing is shown.
