Forget the menu bar - how can I kill transparency in all the menus?

I don't care about the transparent menu bar. I think it would be better if on mouse over, it became solid, but I don't mind it.
However, the transparency in the MENUS is driving me nuts! Apple has succeeded in making every menu in the OS and application harder to read if there is anything underneath it (which there pretty much always is). So far as I can tell, there is absolutely no way to disable it.
Come on, Apple. The whole point of menus is to show you options when you want to see them. Why in the world would you make those options harder to read? At least give me a **** preference to turn this stupid crap off!
So far, I'm sorry I upgraded. Stop chasing after flashy graphics and get back to building a usable OS.

I totally agree. If the menus are going to be transparent, give the users three things in addition:
1) the ability to make the menu even less transparent
2) the ability to blur the stuff behind the menu even more
3) the ability to turn off the transparency entirely
This goes for the menu bar as well. What were the designers thinking when they added all this useless eye-candy that gets in the way? That's the kind of stuff we expect from Microsoft, not Apple.

How can we take backup of all the RDL'S existing at Report server dynamically at one time

How can we take backup of all the RDL'S existing at Report server dynamically at one time ? I want to take backup of all the reports existing at the report server dynamically at one time only. currently I'm able to take backup of the reports folder wise
using VBScript. and I have to pass the folder names again and again. I want this to be happened for all the reports of all the folders at single shot only using VBScript.

Hi DineshRemash,
Based on my research, we can store the following VB Script to a text file, then modify the file name extension from .txt to .rss.
Dim rootPath As String = "C:\Reports"
Sub Main()
Dim items As CatalogItem() = _
rs.ListChildren("/", true)
For Each item As CatalogItem in items
If item.Type = ItemTypeEnum.Folder Then
CreateDirectory(item.Path)
Else If item.Type = ItemTypeEnum.Report Then
SaveReport(item.Path)
End If
Next
End Sub
Sub CreateDirectory(path As String)
path = GetLocalPath(path)
System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(path)
End Sub
Sub SaveReport(reportName As String)
Dim reportDefinition As Byte()
Dim document As New System.Xml.XmlDocument()
reportDefinition = rs.GetReportDefinition(reportName)
Dim stream As New MemoryStream(reportDefinition)
document.Load(stream)
document.Save(GetLocalPath(reportName) + ".rdl")
End Sub
Function GetLocalPath(rsPath As String) As String
Return rootPath + rsPath.Replace("/", "\")
End Function
Then navigate to the folder contains the script, we can directly run the below command from the run menu:
rs -s
http://aa/ ReportServer -i download.rss
We can modify the rootpath to point at whaterver fold you’d like to download the RDL files.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

HT201359 how can i find out what all the charges on my checking account are for?

how can i find out what all the charges on my checking account are for?

If you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases - the most recent purchase is above the list. I'm not sure if that shows auto-renewing subscriptions (I don't have any so I can't check).
If you can't find the charges and you haven't added or changed your card details on your account (when you do then a small temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the details are correct and valid, which should disappear within a few days) then you can contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

My iTunes library is missing since upgrade Lion 7.2. I have it all backed up so that's not the issue. How can I reinstall it with all my hundreds of playlists intact or do I have to recreate each one upon reinstalling the backup copy? Thank you for help

Almost my iTunes library is missing since upgrade Lion 7.2. (the last 2.5 weeks worth of added music has transferred post-upgrade, none of whcih was bought from iTunes)
I have it all backed up so that's not the issue. How can I reinstall it with all my hundreds of playlists intact or do I have to recreate each playlist upon reinstalling the backup copy? This would save a HUGE amount of time and efforts. Thank you for your help!

hi Limnos,
I do not mean the entire ITunes folder but, rather, the contents of the ITunes folder prior to September 29th. (90% of the media is missing, along with all playlists) The media that remains says it was added on 9/29 although I know most of it was added many months or even years earlier. There are no playlists listed at all, before or after 9/29. (I know for certain that I added non-iTunes purchased songs on 10/6 although I had not created playlists for them)
I have my iTunes folder backed up on both an external drive as well as Time Machine.
I run iTunes off of an ITunes folder on my computer rather than from the external, if that's what you mean about how I have it set up.
Is it OK to drag the entire iTunes folder from the external drive onto my laptop's drive and see if that fixes it?
Thank you for your help!

Somehow my iTunes app has been put into the trash. How can I get this and all of the stuff that was in it back to my Application folder? I try to drag it out of trash, but it won't work.

Somehow my iTunes app has been put into the trash. How can I get this and all of the stuff that was in it back to my Application folder? I try to drag it out of trash, but it won't work.

Also, when I do try to drag it out of the Trash to put it back into Applications (on the Finder sidebar), it asks me to authenticate with the administration password. I enter it, and then a window appears saying that I can't do that because I do not have permission to modify iTunes. Please help.

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

Had to buy a new PC as the hard disk of the old one broke and lost all purchases, but still have them on the iPhone. How can I sync them back to the new PC in iTunes without losing them?

You should be able to:
Backup the device to the new installation
Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
Restore the device from the backup
This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

Hey davma1

HT5891 Is there a way to remove the menu bar from a secondary display while still using the "Displays have separate spaces" mode?

Is there a way to remove the menu bar from a secondary display while still using the very useful "Displays have separate spaces" mode?
The reason I ask is that most full-screen video playback in most applications, from iTunes to Flash/Silverlight plugins do not take up the full screen, instead leaving space for the menu bar (in the case of iTunes) or leaving the menu bar present on top of the video (for fullscreen Flash/Silverlight videos).
This is annoying for several reasons ranging from the obvious distraction factor to the fact that 1080p video is not played back at native resolution on a 1080p display.
If there is no way to disable this functionality while maintaining separate spaces, I would (humbly) suggest that a future update to Mavericks allow non-Lion-style* full-screen apps to take over the entire display.
*Lion-style full-screen apps are those that animate into a full-screen mode when the opposing-arrows full-screen button in the upper-right-hand corner of the window is pressed.

No. Turning that off reverts to the old display setup. You have one desktop spanned across all displays. The menu bar appears on the primary display only.

Re: how can I ger rid of all the photo folders that appear when downloading photos?

How can I get rid of all the blank, greyed out photo folder names (History???) that appear when I download photos?
iBook, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

Help us to help you: There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
