Ichat drop down menu from menu bar shows up in the wrong place.

I'm not sure how this happened, but for some reason, ever since I've moved to college, my Ichat drop down menu from the menu bar shows up on the left side of my screen, and you can only see half of the menu. I don't know how to fix this problem so if anyone could help me out that would be great.
Sincerely,
Cody Martin

Yep.
Go to the Buddy List Status Message and option the Edit option.
Delete that Status Message that you have that is over 42 characters.
Ones of about 60 or more will introduce the "Left Shift" (And the fact the drop Down may line up with the right hand edge of the Menu Bar icon on in-between lengths)
In Snow Leopard it is possible to have a Long Message that displaces the Drop Down Off Screen.
The other factor is the order of the Menu Bar Icons on that side of the Screen
The iChat one can be Dragged if you use the Apple (CMD) key.
If the Drop Down can not fit the message in before the right hand edge of the Screen it will displace.

  • Overflow leaders showing up in the wrong place and wrong time.

    My Overflow leaders are showing up when they shouldn't be there. When I add enough text in a field that will break to the next page I get an Overflow leader that appears above the text which is what I want it to do. But then there are times when I get to the bottom of the box and there is no more text to go to the next page I still get an Overflow leader that appears on the next page. Not quite sure how to fix this. Anyone else have any difficulties with this happening?

    Hasn't anyone experienced odd things happen with overflow leaders?

  • The drop down view by menu (Song, album, etc) at the right side of the iTunes window is like a ghost. It flashes into view for a millisecond once in awhile but never lets me click on it. Anyone know what this is about and what to do?

    The drop down view by menu (Song, album, etc) at the right side of the iTunes window is like a ghost. It flashes into view for a millisecond once in awhile but never lets me click on it. Anyone know what this is about and what to do?

    Short answer:
    Click Hide Song(s), it is what you wanted to do...
    Long answer:
    iTunes in the Cloud is a feature of your iTunes store account that allows you to redownload or stream your past purchases. When you delete a purchased track that is downloaded to your computer (like the first one shown here) you are asked if you also want to hide the song from iCloud. This would remove it from the computer and also stop it showing up with the iCloud symbol as the other tracks from that album (which are not downloaded) do.
    If a track shows with the cloud symbol you can play (stream) it by double-clicking the title, or click the cloud symbol to download a local copy to your library. If you try to delete one of these tracks you get a slightly different message confirming that you want to hide the track. Clicking hide will remove the listing from the library and any other device that shows your past purchases.
    Should you want to retrieve any item hidden in this way at a later date use Store > View My Account > iTunes in the Cloud > Hidden Purchases > Manage.
    To hide all your previous purchases that are not downloaded to your computer use Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.

  • When I double-click the gold star to bookmark a site and click "Choose", none of my current folders appear in the drop-down under Bookmarks Menu.

    Running 3.6.12 on Windows XP in my brand-new HP 6000 Pro, and when I double-click the gold star to bookmark a site, 5 of my 80-odd folders appear in the drop-down under Bookmarks Menu. But then, when I click "Choose", no list of current bookmarks appears, so I have to bookmark every time under "Unsorted", then drag each bookmark to its correct folder. What am I doing wrong? I use Firefox on my other 2 systems, and every folder appears on the drop-down, just like it should.

    I don't use Xmarks, so I don't know whether that is a factor here...
    If you use Ctrl+d on a bookmarked page, does the Edit Bookmark dialog appear?
    Firefox doesn't have a convenient way to determine the location of a bookmark. One workaround is to use the extension [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/show-parent-folder/ Show Parent Folder] to add a column in the Library dialog showing the location of a bookmark. Then when you use the search function or Recently Bookmarked query, you should be able to discover the location.
    The extension shows just the folder name by default. If that isn't unique enough, you can change a setting for the extension so it shows the full path down to that folder. To set this, open the Add-ons page, Extensions category, and use the Options button for Show Parent Folder.

  • Drop Down Pop Up Menu

    hey.
    i am making a website. my website has two frames, a top and a
    bottom main frame. i made a drop down pop up menu and it wont go
    over the bttom main frame so part of it is hidden. what can i do to
    make it go over the main frame?

    There is no practical way to make a layer (that's how
    drop-down menus work)
    cross the boundary between two separate frames (i.e., two
    unique HTML
    pages).
    It is true. Your choices are limited now -
    1. DUMP THE FRAMES - you would not be having this problem in
    a non-framed
    site.
    2. Redesign your menus so that they do not need to span a
    frame boundary.
    3. Redesign the frameset so that you leave enough room for
    the largest
    popup.
    4. Move the layer code for the popups from the page in the
    navigation frame
    to each page in the content frame.
    5. DUMP THE FRAMES - you would not be having this problem in
    a non-framed
    site.
    I recommend either #1 or #5, depending on what your needs
    are. You just
    have no idea the horrors that await you if you continue with
    the frames.....
    8)
    Nevermind the method you have used for the pop-up menus. I'm
    afraid to
    ask....

  • How to add Drop Down City Selection Menu?

    How is the best way to  add a Drop Down City Selection Menu to my site next to MyCITY logo?  This page should be selection on Los Angeles (w arrow icon next to it), but I need 4 other city choices.  It needs to drop down like RESTAURANTS with an arrow.  Not sure the best way to approach this.

  • Drop down buttons from a JToolBar

    I've been looking at various postings on how to get drop down options from a JToolBar. What I have seen suggests using JPopupMenu.
    However for my requirements I simply want the drop down buttons to appear in a gridlayout rather than as a drop down menu. Just the icons with no labels.
    Is it possible to change the layout manager up JPopupMenu or should I be trying some other component?
    The code I am trying looks something like that below where I demonstrate a toolbar dropdown color picker. The change of the layout manager seems to have no effect.
    final JButton standardColorButton = _toolBar.add(_actionStandardColor);
    final JButton changeColorButton = new JButton(_actionChangeStandardColor);
    _toolBar.add(changeColorButton);
    changeColorButton.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
        public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
            int height = standardColorButton.getPreferredSize().height;
            JPopupMenu popup = new JPopupMenu("test");
            popup.add(_actionRed);
            popup.add(_actionGreen);
            popup.add(_actionBlue);
            popup.add(_actionBlack);
            popup.show(associationButton, 0, height);
            popup.setLayout(new GridLayout(0,2));

    Hi Vijay,
    Is this correct?
       var oInput = new sap.ui.commons.DropdownBox("ddlb_matnr");
           var oItemTemplate = new sap.ui.core.ListItem();
           oItemTemplate.bindProperty("key", "Matnr");
           oItemTemplate.bindProperty("text", "Description);     
           oInput.bindItems("/sap/opu/odata/sap/Z_MATNR_F4_SRV/materialSet", oItemTemplate, null, "'');
    This should work ?
    I tried this.. it is not fetching...         
    Let me know?

    I am having trouble (sleepless nights) with populating a drop-down list from an Access Database. The result is: I only get the first record from the data connection. So the connection works but I cannot go through the other records. Maybe there is an other way to do this.
    I am trying to selectively fill a form with data from an MS-access database.
    I hope someone can help me.

  • Populate drop-down list from multiple text fields.

    Just to begin, I am brand new to this application and brand new to coding in general. Anyways, this is what I am trying to accomplish. I need to populate a drop-down list from multiple text fields. I am able to populate one item using this in the calculate event:
    TextField1.rawValue
    After I type text in TextField1 and hit enter, it displays the text in the drop-down list. I need to do this but with more than just one text field to populate more options for the drop-down list. I will also need to do something similar with populating a drop-down list from selections made in multiple other drop-down lists.
    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    Thank you for your suggestion Geo Kaiser. With that, I was able to populate my drop-down lists, but now when I select an option from the drop-down list, the selection dissapears. The selection will appear briefly in the box but then dissapears although my drop-down list options remain there. Here is the code I am using for my text field to drop-down list:
    DropDownList1.clearItems()
    DropDownList1.addItem(TextField1)
    DropDownList1.addItem(TextField2)
    And here is my code for my drop-down list to populate another drop-down list:
    DropDownList3.clearItems()
    DropDownList3.addItem(DropDownList1)
    DropDownList3.additem(DropDownList2)
    Thanks again for your help. By the way, I am using Adobe Designer 7.0.

  • HT1977 I did this and a bar showed up at the bottom and now I cant click on the apps and cant transfer them. Please help because I have accidently deleted the App store from my i pad 1. I am not very technoligically advanced so please respond in a noncomp

    I synced my ipad to my itunes store on my computer and a bar showed up on the bottom of the screen showing how many gigabytes i was using. Now i cant click on the screen to move the app from itunes to my ipad for some reason, or my movies/ music for that matter either. The real reason i am doing this is because i accidently erased the app store and dont want to erase all the apps i already have on their. So if someone can help me get the app store or fix the syncing problem that would be great because i use it for school which requires certain app be installed. Please respond quickly!

  • Change a drop down list from read only/invisable on a radiobutton value

    Hi All i am new to all this and need a few pointers?
    I have a form which was made using Livecycle Designer 8.
    On this form are a set of radio buttons (yes/no/NA).
    Is there a way to change the state of a drop down list from read only or invisible and display a message after 'no' has been selected on a set of radio buttons?
    Thanks in advance.

    No being in a table shoudl not affect it.....but you will more than likely have to include the path to the object. Without seeing your form it is impossible to tell you what it should be. You can place your cursor in the script editor where you want the reference to the DDList. Then hold down the Ctrl key and move your mouse to point to the field you want to reference. When the cursor hits the canvas it will change to a V. When you get to the field you want click the mouse button and the expression that you need will be placed in the script editor. This is path relative to where the context in which the script will be run. Now you can simply add the "." and whatever method/property that you want to reference.
    Hope that helps

  • Populating drop-down box from Server XML

    Hello all,
    I'm working on a REST - Lightroom interface, which I'm going to document as expose as a way for anyone to upload pictures to their site.
    Anyway, I need to populate a drop-down with the story names and ids from this XML. Any ideas? I'm a top actionscripter/ruby/etc, but not too familiar with Lua. Looks good though.

    Hope someone can help :)

    Hi there,
    I'm also facing an identical problem and would also like the solution. I've thought about using JavaScript in conjunction with JSP to populate the second drop down box dynamically. But first I need to retrieve the values in the first drop down box from a database and subsequently the 2nd drop down box - I'm thinking that a for loop needs to be used somehow. amishpg, I will let you know If I'm successful.

    I am trying to sync my ipod shuffle to the itunes on my computer.  When I try to sync I go to the drop down file tab.  PULL up "devices" But the extended options of SYNC, RESTORE, Transfer and Backup won't allow me to click on them.  How do I activate?

    Those menu bar commands are disabled when you do not have a device (your shuffle) selected in iTunes.
    If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of iTunes) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  In the sidebar, your shuffle should be listed under DEVICES.  Click on it there to select it.  Now, those commands under the File menu should be accessible.
    However, once you have the shuffle selected, many of those "device-related" commands in the menu bar are also on the iTunes window.  For example, there is a Sync button at the low-right corner of the window, which does the same thing as the command in the menu bar.
