Fruit Menu gone

After updating to OS X 10.4.5 for Power PC on a 1.42 Ghz Mac Mini, my third party software, Fruit Menu, doesn't show up under the Apple on the left hand top of the screen. Anyone else have the same problem?

Thank you for the advice. I did re-install it. My next stop is with unsanity software developers.

Fruit Menu no longer works; Finder menu disappears & hangs

Since the last security update a few weeks ago, I find a lot of my old software doesn't work anymore.
The symptom is the Finder and Dock stop responding, and the Finder menu bar at the top of the screen disappears.
I have updated Unsanity's Fruit menu extension, but this is no longer reliable. Also some older apps seem to cause Finder/Dock crashes as well.
Specifically I'd like to find a Apple-Menu hack to allow me to put folders etc in there. Are there alternatives to Fruit Menu?
thanks

First, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
Then move these files to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
Reboot & test.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
At this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 6 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.

Where has my "airplay pop-up menu gone?

Where has my "airplay pop-up menu gone?

At my wife's suggestion I restarted my computer and the AirPlay menu became visible. Don't ask me to explain it, but it was gone gone gone.

Open dialog box: Dropdown "path" menu gone?

When I choose Open in Apple/iCloud enabled apps like Preview, I get a new kind of dialog box. It is missing the dropdown menu at the top that gives the path to the current folder. This was my main navigation tool for moving to the place where my file is. It seems to be gone now. Is there some other way to do this now?

OK, I figured out the answer if anyone's interested. If you right-click in the title box you get the usual drop down menu.

Where has the menu gone from the top-left of the window?

In the latest Firefox (I can't tell what version, there's no Help icon or About entry anywhere I can find) the menu that used to sit in the top-left of the window has now gone. Some add-ons used to add menu entries there. Since you removed it, now I can't use those add-ons. How do I access these menu items now?

For the equivalent of the Firefox button, click the ≡ Menu Button near the top right corner of the window.
For the Help menu, click the ≡ Menu Button, then the Question Mark icon near the bottom right of the panel that opens. You can also press Alt+H to bring up the Help menu on the menu bar.
For add-on icons, right-click an empty area of the tab bar and choose Customize.

Where's the Advanced|Document Processing|Batch Processing menu gone in Acrobat 11?

I have Acrobat 8.3.1 Professional at work, we're migrating to new machines (Win7) with Acrobat 11 Standard.
I've run into a problem: In 11 Standard, where is the equivalent to the Advanced|Document Processing|Batch Processing menu command from Acrobat 8 Pro??
I have 2 sequences I need to be able to run for docment filing with Court.
Both sequences focus on a specific folder where I put (sometimes quite large) batches of documents converted from Word to PDF.
The 1st sequence goes through however many files are in the target folder. For each file, it turns on the thumbnails, and turns off the menu bar.
I then do some tinkering en mass with them in Acrobat.
Then I run the 2nd sequence, which turns off the thumbnails, and turns the menu bar back on - this is a requirement from Court.
I just started tinkering with Acrobat 11 on my new machine, and the menus seem quite different!
Currently, as each sequence runs, I have to sit there clicking "OK" for each and every file, which is tedious at best! I'd love to find something that'll give me the same functionality, with Acrobat doing all the grunt work!

Ugh. I kinda thought that someone might say this.
Ironically, the same situation arose a couple years ago when we got the machines we're migrating *from* - The Powers That Be thought that 8 Standard would work, and I quickly educated them that "nope, yer gonna hafta spring for me a copy of Pro!"
So, it looks like "here we go again!"
Thanks anyway!
Now I get to cause our purchasing folks NEW grief! I've told them repeatedly that they should REALLY involve me in these purchases, so I can do the pre-purchase research, and save everyone a lot of bother.

After Mavericks update spotlight search menu gone, not possible to use spotlight at all

Hello,
I updated last week to Mavericks and since the update Spotlight is completely gone.
It's not possible any more to get to the spotlight search at all. I checked the Spotlight in the preferences the keyboard short-cuts (apple default) are still enabled but nothing happens.
Even the spotlight magnifier icon in the menu bar is not there any more.
Can anybody help?

Some of your user files (not system files) have incorrect permissions or are locked. This procedure will unlock those files and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Back up all data.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags nouchg,nouappnd {} + -exec chown $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -N {} + -type d -exec chmod +x {} + 2>&-
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) 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.

Finder locked up & Apple Menu gone

I was in the middle of trying to set up a back up in TimeMachine and Finder is since locked up on me and the Apple Menu is gone.
I've only been able to restart manually with no luck. Help

Welcome to Apple Discussions ...
Sounds like you need to check the hard disk for errors. Open Disk Utility, in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder.
Select your disk, and click First Aid.
Click Verify Disk.
If the disk needs repairs, do one of the following:
Insert your Mac OS X Install disc in your computer’s optical drive or an optical drive connected to your computer, and then restart your computer. When you hear the startup tone, hold down the C key until you see the progress indicator, which looks like a spinning gear.
Follow the onscreen instructions until the menu bar appears with the Utilities menu in it, choose Utilities >Disk Utility, click First Aid, and then click Repair Disk.
If you don’t have a Mac OS X Install disc, restart your computer while holding down the Shift key. As your computer starts up, it performs a disk check similar to the one Disk Utility performs.

Nokia 808 - HSPA menu gone on firmware 1507

The Nokia HSPA suggested workaround here
http://www.nokia.com/gb-en/support/troubleshooting/?action=singleFAQ&caseid=FA140286_en_US
cannot be done, because the setting does not exist.
The menu structure
Settings > Connectivity > Admin. settings > Mobile data > High speed packet access
is missing the last item.
Under Mobile Data there are just two items:
Mobile data connection (when needed)
Access point (none)
Where has it gone?
Now, on my Nokia 700, I cannot find it either! That is v. 1506. This looks like a recent change.

OK... I think I have found out some interesting things.
Firstly, the HSPA enable switch does not appear unless you are connected to a 3G network. I presume it means 3G or HSPA. It certainly does not appear when the phone is connected to GPRS only, or has no signal. It is REALLY WEIRD of Nokia to make config items thus dependent! What have they been smoking?
Secondly, even where I am located, with a strong HSPA signal, displayed on a Nokia 700 as "3.5G", the 808 shows "3G". I have just downloaded (from a known very fast server) a 24MB file in 60 secs, which is 400kbits/sec which is at the top end of UK 3G speeds. Another test from another known-fast server of a 24MB file took the same time. So while this is not conclusive, because a poor HSPA connection could be running that slow, it looks like Nokia has disabled HSPA on the new batch of the 808...
BTW does anybody, when they login here to post, get a popup window which goes to a website called oyodomo.com, and a load of adverts around the while Nokia site?
That popup is clearly being triggered by the Nokia server. Doing a google finds a lot of hits commencing early Feb 2013 - exactly when my Firefox stopped working with this site. The only way I can post here is with IE8.

LXDE menu gone

Well i just noticed that my "start" menu in LXDE is gone. Well not really gone but it just shows run and logout. It might have anything to do with the update i just executed. Unfortunatly i cleared my cache right after the update (stupid i know realise). Anyone has an idea how to solve this problem?

I have similar issue every now and then.
I must say I am very disappointed with lxde: start menu disappears, lxpanel flickers and becomes unusable, icons and appearance themes appear 3 times in listbox (this one is no big deal, though), etc.
I wonder if openbox alone wouldn't be a better solution...

Where have the tools menu gone

I have the latet version of firefox and want to get rid of yahoo as my home page and go back my original home.

Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
This issue can be caused by an extension.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

Where has the print "POP UP" menu gone in 'Address Book?'

I have been able to print several address books in different formats and sizes before. Maybe not in 10.5, but never the less its always been very straight forward and no fuss.
Please help! I simply can't print anything??? No 'pop up menu' appears when you click >file>print? is this due to a new default pref setting in 10.5?
I see others have had the same problem, but can not find an answer.
Can some one shed any light on this or just point me in the right direction.
Thank you very much and Merry Christmas!

Greetings!
Not sure if I follow you but, when you click File>Print and the print dialog comes up, what do you see? Do you see a field to select your printer and a field for Presets and not much else? If so, you can click on the down arrow next to the printer selection field and it should reveal much more information for you. Including a way to print envelopes, Address Books and Labels.
I hope this is helpful!

Cheers!

Taskbar icon right click "tasks" menu gone

When I right clicked on the taskbar icon, I used to get several options including a section entitled tasks. However, since about two days ago, I now only get three options of Mozilla Firefox, Unpin this program from the taskbar and close window. I don't know where the options of Open a new tab, Open a new window etc. have gone. I haven't altered any settings in about:config and have tried reinstalling firefox with no success. If there is a possible fix, please help.

# Type ''about:config'' into the address bar and press Enter.
# To bypass the warning, press the big button labeled "I'll be careful, I promise!".
# In the search box, type ''taskbar''
# In the search results, if any of the entries appear in bold text with the status "user set", right-click each one and choose Reset.
# If Firefox is currently pinned to the taskbar, once again unpin it.
# Open Windows Explorer. Paste the following in the address bar and press Enter:
#* %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations\
# If you have a file related to Firefox, delete it. You may be able to determine which file belongs to which application if you open it in Notepad (most of it will be unreadable gibberish). Otherwise, try prefixing the name of every file there with ''backup-''
# '''[http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/choose-programs-windows-uses-default Open Default Programs]'''. Select Internet Explorer, then click the "Set this program as default button"
# In Firefox, open '''[[Advanced settings for accessibility, browsing, system defaults, network, updates, and encryption|Options - Advanced - General]]'''. Click the "Make Firefox the default browser" button there. (Setting Firefox as your default browser also pins it to the taskbar)
# Log off Windows, then back on.
# If that doesn't help, I have no further suggestions. Remember to rename your ''.automaticDestinations-ms'' files back the way they were.

HT201730 dock menu gone

After installing some software, I have lost my dock menu. I am unable to pull it up by running my pointer over it, changing the hiding option on the apple icon menu, or modifying dock preferences. Mac OS X version 10.6.8

Boot into your normal account and try a Dock reset.
Try doing a Dock restart using the following Terminal command:
killall Dock
Log out/in and test. If that doesn’t work, you need to look in your user Library/Applications Support/Dock for the .db. Use the Finder “Go To Folder” command. Enter ~/Library/Applications Support/Dock. Move the .db to your desktop.
Then try a dock reset.
Applications/Utilities/Terminal enter the command
killall Dock
Log out/in test. If it works okay, delete the .db from the desktop.
If the Dock is the same, return the .db to where you got them from, overwriting the newer ones.
