How do you resize the menu bars?

All the menu's keep auto adjusting to show the full text content. This makes my bookmark menu a nightmare. It's become super wide now, and I just want to make it like it was before where it would cut off longer text names.

That can be caused by having some bookmarks with a long title in the main Bookmarks menu.<br />
The width of a column in the Bookmarks menu list is in current Firefox versions automatically adjusted to fit the bookmark with the longest name.<br />
You can check the names of the bookmarks and make the longer ones shorter.<br />

Couple comments concerning this:
You cannot make it larger.
On My MacBook Pro it has a high resolution screen. 1152 x 720 resolution is not listed. if you think your type in the menu bar is small, you should see mine!
I personally would never recommend anyone orders on with Hi-Res.
No matter what resolution I use other than 1680 x 1050 ( max listed for my Notebook) the sharpness is not acceptable to me.
Wrote to apple concerning the menu display along with numerous others and have been totally ignored.

Hi Norm,
1. I've been researching, and, with a few exceptions which are not acceptable to me, I believe you are correct.
4. I really have no choice, I have to reduce the res to see text.
5. Apple does not reply to feedback, so don't feel ignored. I've also sent feedback and emailed Jobs, and maybe, someday, after enough of us do that, this will get "fixed." Meanwhile, I'm also often at 1152x720.

How do you get the Menu Bar out of Fullscreen mode with Safari?

When I click on Full Screen mode to watch video the Menu Bar remains at the top of the screen. This just recently happened and its only with Safari because Firefox's Full Screen mode works as it should. I have read many forums with questions similar to mine but none have helped. Please keep in mind when you answer this question that it is NOT JUST WITH YOUTUBE. This is happening with every website that I use to watch videos. I suspect that the update had something to do with this because if memory serves right it happened the last time I updated.

Im sorry but I figured it out now. I hate when you figure something out right after you do something extreme like signup for a profile here and post a question. Well to those who want the answer all in one shot there are 2 solutions for me.
1. Make sure Safari is updated completely. You can check by clicking SAFARI> ABOUT SAFARI
Safari 5.0.5 gave me this problem but the new update is 5.1.2
2.Glims - Free ad on for Safari which enables you to view you window in COMPLETE full screen at all times, as well as maximise your window to fill all empty space (makes so you dont have to worry about accidentally clicking on your desktop which I do all the time lol). You can use this option once Glims is installed simply by clicking on
SAFARI> Full Screen
or
SAFARI> Maximise Window Size
By doing Full Screen mode you can then click on the full screen capability on the website you are on

If you're running Lion, press the escape (esc) key to exit full-screen mode. Otherwise, provide more details, including the Mac OS version and the application you're have trouble with. A screenshot would help.

How do you alter the bookmarks bar on an iMac?

How do you alter the bookmarks bar on an iMac?

Safari bookmark bar is viewed by clicking on the book icon on the far left side of the bar, and selecting the Bookmarks Bar Collection.
Drag bookmarks and folders into the Bookmarks bar Collection or directly into the bookmarks Bar if you want them to appear there. You can edit them right on the spot by clicking on them once.
If you mean the Dock, the translucent bar that starts at the bottom of the screen (which you can put on the side of the screen), just drag items to the left side of the Dock's divider that are applications you wish to keep a shortcut to. Folders to the right side. When you minimize a window with the yellow control, it minimizes to the same side of the divider as the folders and documents you might drag to the Dock. Note, the Dock is only a shortcut. Many mistake it for a folder. It is not. If you want your application to be dragged out of a DMG you just double clicked, drag it to your Hard drive -> Applications folder. Dragging it to the Dock will only make it inaccessible when you dismount the image. And when you trash the image, the application is gone. Only if you store it in your Hard drive -> Applications folder is it safe.
If you mean the Finder window left sidebar just drag items into it between the icons already there. Your Finder menu's Preferences allows you to select default folders and devices to show there.

In the Export Dialogue (File -> Export) note the options at Size. This will allow you to specify a maximum length or breadth for the shot.

Hi, sorry to say, but OSX can't do that.

How can I get the Menu Bar in P/S Ele. 9 to show in the organizer?

The Menu bar IS in Edit. Problem occured when I updated from XP to new computer w/ Windows 7. There is a small rectangle where the menu bar usually is. I can click on it and the menu bar opens vertically. The rectangle can not be seen unless you stand up to locate it.

The glitches and workarounds include:
-          The Organizer’s menu bar (File, Edit, etc.) won’t show up. You can either set the Windows text size back to 100% (96 DPI), or you can set the Organizer option Edit > Preferences > General > Use System Font. With the latter, the results aren’t always the prettiest, e.g. the font in the Editor’s menu bar stays small, but the font in the dropdown menus gets large. But this workaround at least lets you keep the text size large so that you can read the text in all your other applications.
-          The Advanced Dialog in the Photo Downloader won’t be available in PSE 8. (That also occurs on short displays.) You’ll need to reduce the Windows text size to something less – how much depends on the resolution of your display.
-          The Editor on Windows 7 can show a mouse cursor for some tools that looks like three distorted shadows of the true cursor. You’ll need to reduce the Windows text size to less than 150% (149% works fine).
To change the Windows text size/DPI of your display:
XP: Start > Control Panel > Display or Start > Settings > Control Panel > Display.   Click Settings > Advanced.
Vista: Windows Start > Control Panel > Personalization > Adjust Font Size (DPI).
Windows 7: Start > Control Panel > Display. To choose a custom size, click Set Custom Text Size (DPI) on the left.

How can i see the MENU bar. Help says "Right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip. What is a Tab Strip?

My friend just bought a Windows 8 laptop so I told her to download the latest version of FireFox. Unfortunately, some idiot removed the Menu Bar which most people love. You can see all of your options in plain English. Anyway, I referred her to help and cannot believe it's so hard to get a simple answer to this question. Why does FireFox make it so difficult to get an old fashioned menu bar?
Help says, "Right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip and check Menu Bar". OK, what is a "TAB STRIP" and where does she find it? Who writes these silly, useless help tips?

Grad, you made some good points but we still disagree. I'll acknowledge that maybe millions was a slight exaggeration but nobody has an accurate count. However, I do understand the difference between making something simple and obvious versus a programmer trying to prove how clever he or she is.
Grad, I'm guessing you and your friends are much younger than us as we are well above the age of 50.
As for the number of clicks, I'm confused by your comment. My Menu Bar is always visible so I have to merely '''click once on Bookmarks''' to get to those menu options. It sounds as if you have to initially click on the orange FireFox button in order to see the Menu Bar, and then click a 2nd time on Bookmarks. That sounds like 2 clicks of the mouse to me.
I have Windows 7 and never saw Windows 8 so I can't comment on your excellent question. I personally had the '''Menu Bar displaying 100% of the time''' for as long as I could remember. I just couldn't remember how I initially turned it on several years ago and the help file proved to be more confusing than helpful.

Can you lock the menu bar?

Hi all,
I am using iWeb to create a website and so far am really pleased with what it can do.
However i would like to be able to lock the menu bar so that it always stays at the top of the screen and the rest of the page scrolls up underneath it, or alongside it if i put the menu bar on the left. The idea is that no matter where the reader is on the page they will always have access to the menu buttons. I remember doing this on another program back in the bad old windows days, i think it might have been locking panes or similar.
Can this be done in iWeb?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Mike

Here's a locked menu in action.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3563737/Lycos/Fixed.html
It's an Ad-Hoc solution, because I had the take the shaded bar at the top into account. Will fixed that later.
The bar at the top of this page and the other pages is a solution to have the bar stretch the width of the page when you resize the browser window.
It cannot be done in iWeb itself. You need a JavaScript.
So you get two solutions for the price of one.
Here's the JavaScript :
Apparently Discussions does not accept all the JavaScript code.
So have a look at the source here :

Note that you can publish iWeb at DropBox.

HT3737 I have a new mac with Lion but I don't have a menu bar. How do I launch the menu bar?

I just booted up a new mac-mini that came with Lion. However, I don't have a menu bar. Is there a setting I need to change?

If it's a fresh installation that is going through its initial boot sequence then you will need to run through utilities to set up your account, which may not show the menu bar. Once logged into your account the menu bar should show up. What happens when you click the little blue smily face icon in the Dock at the bottom of your screen (this is the Finder icon)?
