I accidentally turned Auto hide on my task Bar...

Hey,
There is probebly a really easy answer to this but somehow iv enabled the 'finder' bar at the top of my mac (that shows the time and battery and things) to Auto hide and its driving me insane. How do I get it back to normal.
Thanks
Brittney

Well, this is one thing I found:

There also seem to be different ways depending on which app you are using, so you may want to check out the Help section available in all apps (under Help in the menu bar). Sorry, but I'm not that knowledgeable about it since I never use it.

  • How do you auto hide the finder menu bar

    Prior to Mavericks, I could auto hide the finder menu bar by inserting:
    <key>LSUIPresentationMode</key>
    <integer>4</integer>
    in the finder info.plist after accessing core services/finderapp/contents/resources, but now in the Mavericks OSX, I receive the following error message:
    "Finder Quit Unexpectantly" and a list of various reasons; codes; etc too long to list here.  Is auto hiding the finder menu bar even doable anymore in this operating system, and if so what is the solution?

    How do you reverse that process?  I was trying it with various apps, substituting the app name in the terminal command and it worked great until I got to the "Notes" app.  I think it messed up how notes synced with iCloud.
    Thanks

  • Auto Hide with WebDynpro

    Hi All,
    In Windows Operating system,Taskmanager i can set properties ->General->Auto Hide.
    Bottom Task Bar will be auto hided when mouse is points on Desktop, but if we move towards Taskbar we can see taskbar.
    can this be acchived using WebDynpro, let's there is a view with few Buttons, i would like to Autohide this view is it possible to do this,if so what are the steps.
    Your help highly appreciated!!!
    Regards,
    RK

    Hi RK,
    As far as I know, in WebDynpro you don't have methods to locate the cursor/mouse position. We had a requirement in our project but this feature was not there. We had a discussion with SAP and they asked us to submit a Development Request for the same.
    So I think as of now this might not be possible.
    I am not sure if there is any work around for the same.
    Experts please comment.

  • Launch pad turns dock auto hide on

    On my MacBook Air every time I use launch pad my dock auto hide feature gets turned on. To see my dock again I have to turn auto hide back off. Why is launch pad turning auto hide on? And how do I fix this?

    In System Preferences > Dock, do you have "Automatically hide and show the dock" checked?  If so, uncheck it.

  • Movement of mouse hides window behind title bar at the top of the display

    My roommate's daughter was visiting and changed a bunch of settings. I got everything restored except one - at times when I move my mouse (usually in the direction of the title bar), the window "auto hides" behind the title bar. A small border at the bottom of the hidden window remains visible just below the title/tool bar, which, when I click on it, returns it to the screen.
    This seems like it might be a good feature to use, IF I only knew what causes it to do this only when I want it to. Can this be turned off if I don't want to use it?
    Help & Thanks!

    I am having the same problem. Has anyone come up with an answer? Rick M

  • Hiding windows task bar

    I am working on a custom TS operator interface written in CVI 5.5. I am trying to hide the windows task bar. I have used
    SetPanelAttribute (panel, ATTR_SYSTEM_MENU_VISIBLE, 0);
    and this works, except that when my modelsupport DLL puts a popup on the screen, the taskbar becomes visible again while the popup is present. How can I stop this?

    Hi Byron,
    I have tried to reproduce the problem you are describing and it seems to work fine for me. One thing I am somewhat confused by is that you say you used the SetPanelAttribute call to hide the "windows taskbar". I believe you are actually talking about the "system menu" that is accessed via the icon on the left side of a window's title bar, as the "windows task bar" is actually the floating menu bar displayed at the bottom of the Window's desktop and contains the infamous Start menu.
    Anyhow, I have created an example TS 2.0.1 sequence file that calls a CVI dll which spawns a new thread and displays a panel that has the system menu hidden. If you run the sequence you will see that when the modelsupport.dll displays the modal UUT serial number dialo
    g and pass/fail banner dialogs, it does not change the visibility of the system menu displayed by the CVI dll UI. (the reason I create new threads to display the dialog is so that the call to the dll does not wait on RunUserInterface to complete and returns execution to the sequence file immediately).
    **Note: The dll project was created in CVI 6.0, and the sequence file in TS 2.0.1, please state what versions of CVI and TS you are using if you want help with a specific version. You do not need TS 2.0.1 to use the dll I created, just simply call the lone function in the dll in a sequence file with the CVI adapter and run the file with Test UUTs in whatever version of TS you have. Since the dll was created in CVI 6.0 you may need to install the CVI 6.0 RTE, which is available on ni.com under the downloads section, and it is fully compatible with previous versions of CVI.
    So, just give this a shot to see if you can discern anything from it.

  • Where's the task bar gone?

    The task bar and the status bar have both disappeared. How do I restore them?

    Hi Alembic, could you clarify which "status bar" is missing? Firefox 29 and newer do not have the old Add-on bar / Status bar unless you are using an extension to restore them.
    Regarding the Taskbar, unless you are in Firefox's full screen view -- F11 switches between normal view and full screen view -- Firefox should never hide the Windows Task bar. When that happens, it can be due to a corrupted settings file. Here is how to clear that file:
    Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
    * (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
    * type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
    In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window listing various files and folders in Windows Explorer.
    Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
    * (menu bar) File > Exit
    Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''xulstore.json''' to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename that one to localstore.old.
    Start Firefox back up again. Does Firefox display normally again?

  • A How to turn off auto hide tools/panles

    So Flash 9 has a new feature that is annoying me : it likes
    to auto hide the tools/panels.
    apparently Flash is turning this feature on at at random. I
    realize that I must be accidentally hitting some hot key that turns
    it on, but I can't find how to stop it. It's rather annoying.
    How do I disable the auto-hide for the tools and panels?

    Just go to settings, view, toolbars autohide.

  • SAP Signature Design & Task Bar Auto-Hide Feature

    Hi Experts,
      I'm having a problem with SAP Business One 8.8 PL18 using the new 8.8 SAP Signature Design. We are in a business with 4 professionals and 1 CRM. When we use the SAP Signature Design Skin Style and you have SBO maximized on the screen and you have Windows auto-hide the Task bar. You can't go back to the task bar with your mouse to switch applications or to just go to your start menu. The only way you can make the task bar appear is by pressing the "window key" to make the task bar display. To change applications, you can still use the "Alt Tab feature". If I put the Skin Style to Classic Mode, everything works great with no apparent display problems.
    I've tried this on 3 different operating systems. Windows 7, Windows XP and Windows 2003 Server and the same results. The task bar won't re-pop up if you move your mouse down to it (I tried moving the task bar to the left, top or right to see if that made a difference, and it didn't). I've been using the "Window Key" for now to make the task bar pop up (display), but I think it's a bug with the skin style and not the operating system.
      I've tried to get this resolved with our partner, but I don't think they understand the problem, or are just not willing to acknowledge the problem. They probably think it is a petty problem. We all like the new design and would like to use it properly while still having the task bar auto-hide.
    The question actually is, do you know of this problem, is there something I can disable or do to get it to work (ie: make it run with compatibility mode to something) or do I just have to live with this problem?
    I thank you very much in trying or helping me with this problem
    Ron
    IT Manager

    Hi Ron,
    Welcome you post on the forum.
    I don't have the same version to test. Based on your detailed explanation, I do think it is probably a bug. Since it may not be used by many users, it could have low priority to be fixed even if it is confirmed to be a bug.
    Thanks,

  • ITunes 10.5.0.142 prevents 'auto-hide' task bar reappearing on scroll-over at page bottom when ITunes home page is up. Task bar appears and hides fine on other windows.  OS: Win 7.

    In Windows 7 my latest ITunes version won't let the 'autohide' feature work for my task bar.  I have mine set at the bottom of all pages, and they all work when the Itunes page is up.  But not the ITunes home page itself.  The task bar is gone, and won't appear on scroll-over. 
    Look, I'm not going to kill myself over it.  I just have to minimize the IT page to get to another task bar.
    But I like my auto-hide and won't disable it, and I like what's been done with the new version of IT and - of course - won't get rid of that.  I just want them to live together happily ever after.
    Thank You in Advance for Your Time;

  • How can I turn off auto-hide menu bar in Terminal app?

    This is soooo anoying.   Open terminal app in fullscreen mode, open a few tabs, now when you move your mouse to the top to click on a new tab, the menu bar shows itself and covers the tabs.
    I want to turn off this feature to auto-hide the menu bar.  I would much rather have it move all the tabs down a bit when the menu bar apprears.
    Any ideas to help fix the issue?

    Can't turn that off. It's a feature of full screen mode. If you place your mouse at the bottom of the tab you want to select, the Terminal Menu bar doesn't pop up for me.

  • Windows task bar no longer auto hides when I fullscreen a flash video.

    Like the question reads, my task bar is no longer auto hiding when I full screen flash videos in firefox. Other than the obvious issue of it just being unsightly and annoying, It also causes a few other problems. One being that the computer no longer recognizes that a fullscreen video is playing so it goes to screen saver, and goes to sleep at its normally timed intervals.

    If you're using higher DPI settings, please check "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" on 'firefox.exe' (=> right-click - Properties - Compatibility tab).

  • Auto-hide

    Dear Community. I am playing a "window-mode" game in which takes up the full resolution for my screen. In order to compensate for the room needed at the bottom of the screen I have chosen to "auto-hide" the task bar. I have chosen to stay in window mode because I would like to be able to travel around while playing this turn-based game. So then, I choose to work on other workspaces. My question is, can I have auto-hide turned off on say workspace2 while on, on workspace1?

    What window manager are you using?
    Auto-hiding some panel sounds like gnome.
    If so you will not be able to adjust auto-hiding in different ways for different panels since gnome only distinguishs between lets say one panel on the bottom and one on the top edge of the screen (at least as far as I know).
