How do i see menu bar icons if safari has so many headers

Hi Everyone,
when i have safari open i have File Edit View History Bookmarks Develop Window Help and Debug
this means that many of my menu bar icons are missing eg Dropbox Evernote etc....
Does anyone know if there is a way to cycle through the menu bar icons to get the one i want whilst safari or any other programme with many headings like this is open?
Or can i drag and drop the menu bar items into some other order so they appear out the tail end ?
Thanks
A

Just click on the Desktop and they will appear. Or don't use so many and get rid of Safari's Debug menu.

Hi I have a mac mini with my TV as a display. MY display includes the taskbar but no menu bar, how do I see menu bar???

HI

Make sure you are using a 1080p capable TV. Some TVs have pixel level video ratio adjustment. Sometimes that can force the menubar to be visible if it is the only display connected to the machine. Sometimes you have to go to your hard drive's Applications -> System Preferences -> Displays and drag the white bar on top of the display's representation to the other display. You can only have one primary display with menubar.
Lastly, for non-1080p capable displays, DisplayConfigX or SwitchResX offer pixel level adjustments through software.

How to eliminate unwanted menu bar icons?

When I installed all the software for my new Canon MP640 printer-copier-scanner it put a "Canon IJ Network Scanner Selector" icon in the menu bar. It doesn't seem to do much - and I really don't want another nanometer of space taken-up by unwanted menubar icons... Does anyone know how to remove this?
Thanks!

OK the cmd-drag didn't work - I had tried that but appreciate the suggestion!
As to your suggestion: In Accounts I find a Login program called *Canon IJ Network Scanner* (checked to be hidden) - and it is in /Library/Printers/Canon/IJScanner/Utilities/Canon IJNetwork Scanner Selection. OK but if I remove this from the login - will it remove just the menu bar icon or will I then lose the ability to use my MP640 as a scanner?
When I open the program by double-clicking it, I get the same screen as when I choose it from the menu bar. I just don't want this menubar "icon" taking up real estate --
The HELP says this: (The icon itself does not show in this paste so I just put in underlines__- it is the image of a printer with the top opened and an arrow indicating a scan direction or something.
About Menu
Click__in the menu bar to display the menu.

Note

How do you disable menu bar icons from being moved?

The students at our school have discovered that if you hold down the Command key and click on certain menu bar items (such as the icons for Displays, Sound, Date & Time, Keyboard Layout, etc.) it is possible to move them around. It is also possible to drag them out of the menu bar and they disappear in the normal "puff of smoke" which you get when dragging items out of the Dock. Is there a way of disabling this nifty little feature, or at least of having it reset at login?
We are using Workgroup Manager (XServe, OS X 10.4.8) to manage the setup of the student computers, and I cannot find a setting relating to management of the actions I have described. The problem is that we have enabled a Vietnamese keyboard layout. The students can select it when needing to type in Vietnamese in Word 2004, and then set it back to the normal layout (Australian, in this case). Occasionally they forget to set it back to normal. Then, if a student in the next class decides to command-drag the keyboard layout icon out of the menu bar, the Vietnamese layout either becomes the default (with no way for them to change it back) and/or sometimes "kicks in" without any discernible reason when trying to connect to the server, making logging-on a challenge (the layout re-maps some of the characters). Any suggestions would be appreciated. We have already tried enabling access to the "International" System Preference, but some students then go out of their way to add every keyboard layout (there are dozens of them!) and/or change the language settings - have you (as a mono-lingual person) ever tried to navigate through menus when they are in Chinese, Arabic, or Hungarian? We would like to be able to somehow "lock down" the icons which are displayed in the menu bar (top RH corner) so that they can not be deleted or, alternatively, re-appear at next login if they have been deleted.

Go to Settings>General>Auto-Lock and set a longer interval.

How do I get rid of the menu bar icon on Mac OS?

The Creative Cloud menu bar icon on Mac OS is pretty much useless since I already have icons for all the apps and don't use Adobe Cloud storage. Anyone know how to get it off my menu bar? The menu bar is MY space. I ought to have control over what goes there. If every application starts dumping stuff there it will quickly become a mess. I want the option to turn this off.
Thanks!

Most videos play "inline", not full screen, on Safari on iPad. You can use a quick "reverse pinch" gesture (as if you were zooming in, but more of a quick flick than a slow zoom) on top of the video to make it full screen.

How does a user activate a menu bar icon?

Hello everyone, how great is it to assign hotkeys for your application menus. Yet... for the more interesting users like me, we need to also activate menu bar icon settings, particularly the 'show ink window' in my case. Respectively iv'e tried every corner in the world for another way of activating that besides the point and click method everyone is forced to use... and came up with no answer... so i figured, what about Terminal? maybe... just maybe there is a Terminal(OS X native command-line tool) command for this, if anyone knows please share!!

You can open the form in Adobe Reader and save the form after filling in the data.

Menu Bar Icons Disappeared and other issues after Security Update 2006-001

Hi,
I was really affraid when i've heard about the Safari vulnerability, so I was really happy to see the Security Update 2006-001.
But after installing it, I'm having regrets:
* mouse speed turned to default settings
* system preferences crashes when i try to access to Mouse & Keyboard
* all the menu bar icons disappeared: Bluetooth, Airport, Time, EVEN Spotlight
* Finder is slower...
I've repaired disk permissions but: nothing happens....
What should I do please?
Should I wait?

How did you fix it? I'm having the same problem
myself.
Mandy,
I'm gonna tell you a secret, just like i said my problem wasn't due to the Security Update but because of Front Row.
How? Because, I've hacked my iMac (without iSight) to install FrontRow (with an update), and i've installed the Security Update at the same time. Restarted my computer, and thought the problem was due to the Security Update.
If you did the same thing, here's the trick to remove Front Row:
Delete Front Row (/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app)
Install/reinstall the the latest Mac OS X Update Combo.
This article assumes you haven’t tried installing Front Row before without the use of Enabler. If you have used one of the very early versions of Front Row (ones installed without Enabler):
Delete Front Row (/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app)
Delete the preference file (/System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.frontrow.plist)
Remove any Login Items that launch Front Row (System Preferences >Accounts >User >Login Items)
Disable any shortcuts managed by third-party applications that launched Front Row.
Reboot and reinstall.

Menu bar icons vanished and iPod not showing up in iTunes anymore

All menu bar icons on the right side (keyboard, clock, battery) vanished.
It's not possible to get them back by mark their visability in the system configuration. The system just ignores any attempt to do that (I can mark the check box, but nothing appears on the menu bar; after leaving and returning to the panel, the mark has gone).
Besides of that, my iPod doesn't show up in iTunes anymore (but does on the desktop).
My laptop may be physically damaged as it fell down to the floor a few days ago.
Can anybody help?

Have you run the Apple Hardware Test and also Repair Disk?
THESE ARE THE STEPS FOR USING DISK UTILITY TO REPAIR YOUR HD
1.Insert the System Install disk, Mac OS X CD-ROM disk, or Restore DVD disk, then restart the computer while holding the C key. Use the System disk, of the OS, that is currently installed.
2.Once started up from CD or DVD, choose Disk Utility from the Installer contextual menu for Panther, or Utilities for Tiger, on the Menubar at the top of the screen.
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from disc to access Disk Utility.
3.Click the First Aid tab.
4.Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5.Select your Mac OS X volume, if necessary.
6.Click Repair. If DU reports errors it has fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported.
7.When finished, select Quit Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
8.Select Quit Installer from the Installer menu.
9.In the resulting pop-up window, choose restart.
10.After the computer has restarted, you can eject the CD.
Repeat steps 5 & 6, but select the Hard Drive this time. It's usually the first listed with the manufacturer's model number.
Make note of the S.M.A.R.T. status.

Menu bar icons not showing up at retina resolution

I've been experiencing this for a while now. Some menu bar icons will now show up at retina resolution on my Macbook Pro Retina.
Here's a screenshot to show what I mean: http://d.pr/i/IUMM
Only Twitter and Notification center are in retina resolution. If I relaunch them, some apps will show the icon at retina resolution (see here: http://d.pr/i/uMDu )
Anyone have any idea what causes this or if it's been reported already?
I'm on a 2012 MBPr 15" running OSX 10.9

Have you solved this yet? Perhaps trashing the preference file for the menubar would solve this? Go to the preferences folder-- /Library/Preferences --and trash this file:
com.apple.systemuiserver.plist

Menu bar icons keep moving/scrolling/flashing

Not sure exactly how to describe the problem concisely. The menu bar icons appear, then disappear, and then only two icons reappear (OpenDNS and VirusBarrier), then they disappear and the sequence starts again.
Computer is a Mac Mini with Snow Leopard and is up to date. Thinking that it might be simply that I had too many icons for the real estate on my smallish monitor, I tried removing menu icons to make room by unticking their boxes in some of their system preferences and also be dragging them off the menu bar with command-drag, but problem will not go away. Rebooting did not solve the problem either. I have also repaired permissions. Any suggestions are welcome.

Corrupted .plist file.
Get yourself OnyX for OS X, it will come in handy for that and other things that go bump in the night.

10.9.1 Menu Bar Icons Hidden

Hello Guys,
After I updated to 10.9.1 my Menu Bar Icons like, WiFi, Bluetooth, Sound, all are hidden. Only if I take pointer and click, I get to see the icon. Its trouble to seek by clicking blank space to find out icons.
I searched through settings, and couldn't find anything to fix this.
Thanks a lot in advance!!

Thanks a lot Barney!!
Deteled bunch of Third Party apps and rebooted. Seems back to normal now!
Last time I had to delete google drive for some weird reason! Things which are compatible and working are creating issues after updates!!!

Menu Bar icons disappearing

My menu bar icons for volume, date and time, ect. All disappeared randomly and I don't know why. I went into my system preferences to try to re add them and when I click the box to put it back, it just deselects automatically and won't let me re-add them. I also can't open finder. It says the application isn't responding. I've restarted. I've gone through the disk utility stuff. I'm at my wits end on how to deal with this. Suggestions/info?
Thanks!

Nate
I too am at a loss for lack of details - especially about the 'refusal' to obey in the Prefs.
One thing that springs to mind concerning the menu bar 'icon' items - in some apps, the App's menu has a LOT of menu headings. In the case where it needs the room, it will push some out of the way (somehow) - an example is BBEdit
BBEdit removes these
leaving this

Menu bar icons won't display

After upgrading to Mavericks, I can't see any of the usual menu bar icons (date/time, battery, wifi, etc.).
When I check them in System Preferences, it momentarily checks and then unchecks.
Any suggestions? Tried restarting already.

Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key to choose "Library". Then go to Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist and delete that file. Log out and back in or restart.

Why can't I organize third party menu bar icons?

Is there a way I can organize third party menu bar icons? I know I can organize preinstalled Apple icons such as the battery indicator and time/date, but how do I order third party menu bar icons so that when I restart, they will stay in that order?

Great question.
And a related one: is there a utility to organize these? I have a ton and it would be cool to have a show/hide toggle or something.
