Installed 10.2.8 and contextual menu doedn't work

Hi all,
I install 10.2.8 on two iMacs and options in the contextual menu in the Finder are not displaying anymore except the arrows e.g "open with" arrow or the arrow to scroll a long list of options. Has anybody got any ideas what I could do?

HI Donny,
I haven't had a chance to come back to this computer till now. I reinstalled the Mac OSX 10.2.8 update, I had forgotten that you said to install the Combo version. Only change I have noticed is that the "Open with" arrow on the the contextual menu appears and displays the names of applications when clicked but the actual contextual menu still hasn't any text.
I am getting this strange read out in Disk Utility and if I remember correctly 10.2 should not be displaying all for this but I think only the line with "New Permissions". Would you have a look through it & see do you recognise anything there. I will give the Combo update an install and report back.
Thanks again,
Fiachra.

I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums.

Dropbox and contextual menu

Dropbox has added itself to my contextual menu. Does this mean Dropbox can access my system? Can it install dark software? Why does Dropbox not have to ask permission to modify my system?
This is very confusing to me.

I guess I wasn't clar: Dropbox changed mu finder behaviours, without even asking permissions. I taked wit Dropbox support; they don't know any way to undo it, other than uninstalling Dropbox.
If they can, without authorization, change my finder, what else could they change if the felt like?
For that matter, why couldn't every one of my 150+ applications decide to put itself, irrevocably, in my contextual menu?
I find this inexcusible.

Custom tuning menu, menu bar, and contextual menu transparency levels?

I'm not talking about simply toggling menu bar transparency (which you can already do in 10.5.5 using System Preferences), but I'd like having the chance to tune transparency level for different objects.
Is there any way to tune:
1) menu
2) menu bar
3) contextual menu
transparency level?
(possibly individually for each of the three categories)
This would be cool.

You can't - all the template navigation menus are not made to be changed.
If you want anything different, then you need to open the Inspector and go to Page and then check the box where it says 'hide navigation menu' and then you can build your own text based menu by using text boxes or shapes etc. and then use hyperlink to link to your pages. In this way you have full control over colour and placement.

The spry pop-up menu I built in Adobe Dreamweaver worked fine in my old Firefox, I updated Firefox today and the menu no longer works--despite disabling the pop-up blocker in Firefox preferences...what's the problem??? I need the menu to work!!!

I built a new pop-up menu for my website using Spry in Adobe Dreamweaver. Because of some differences in .HTML and .XHTML
it took me days to get it right. I tested every variation in Firefox until it worked perfectly. Today, I installed the newest version of Firefox and now the pop-up no longer works. I changed the preferences in Firefox to disable to pop-up blocker and it STILL DOESN'T WORK...although an older style of pop-up menu (menu machine) which is no longer supported by Adobe, DOES WORK.
HELP!!! THIS IS IMPORTANT.

pixlor:
OP is using CS3 and the menu blog is talking about the menus
in earlier
versions of FW, so *most* of the points made in the blog
don't apply.
That's not to say that using CS3 pop-up menus is a *good*
thing....

I'm installing my CS6 download, and my Serial# won't work

It tells me that it's a valid serial number but not for any products I have on my system.
I just reinstalled Windows 7 on my laptop and am reinstalling my programs. I'm having all kinds of trouble with the Adobe CS stuff. I have the CS 5.5 DVD and downloaded my CS 6 upgrade, and I have had to install trial versions because the serial number won't work.

If you have trial versions installed, your serial number can be used to convert them to fully activated versions

Accordion Panels and List Menu don't work if I place html files in subfolders

Hi all,
Switched from Dreamweaver to Muse and I have very limited knowledge of code.
Not an IT expert and not a web developer this is just for my own site.
I have sub-folders in my site. All html files are inside sub-folders except index.
ie contact.html or products.html I move them manually from root to the subfolder, using the easy interface of Dreamweaver. I call the subfolder "en"
so I can have pages such as mysite.com/en/contact.html
In the subfolder I copy and paste from root the css, images and script folders,
keeping the original css/images/scripts as well, in the root, so index.html is not affected.
and same time the look of the html pages inside the subfolders does not change.
BUT
list menus and accordion panels don't work. I click and there is no movement
How can I solve this ? I know Muse does not allow the creation of subfolders,
everything is uploaded in the root.
When in Dreamweaver I had placed 50 pages in subfolders and I was indexing them in google and bing.
Now can't again put 50 pages in root and can't remove URLs and make new indexing for all these pages
Any help ? many thanks for any assistance.

ITunes and contextual menu bug

Can anyone verify this?
If I use my Mighty Mouse to right-click on a track in iTunes either the menu selection (e.g. 'get info') has no effect (4.9) or iTunes crashes (5.0 and 5.0.1).
The same thing happens if I control-click, so not just a Mighty Mouse thing.
I thought it might be fixed in yesterday's update but it wasn't.

Raymond hello,
Your problem indicates that you do not have the ownership and or permission set right on your Music library and or the data files.. you may also have locked files to contend with.... Do this..
Check that your HD is in order with 'Disk Utility' ...
Run repair HD from original CD or DVD install disk...
insert disk and re-start holding down the 'c' key until you see the spinning gear.
At installer level do not continue...
Use top menu and go 'Disk Utility' select your HD volume with the Operating system on...
select 1st aid... select repair Hard Disk.
if errors are repaired run again until none are reported then verify your HD.
quit and return to the Finder Do not continue with the Installer...
Check the permissions are set correct on the Apple installed software...
Use 'Disk Utility' from Applications > Utilities > select HD... select 1st aid. repair permissions... if repairs are needed run again until none are repaired... do not worry about messages 'we are using special permissions etc... they are OK Quit when finished.
Use BatChmod to set correct permissions on your home ~ Music folder
To set preferences using BatChmod is very easy...
This compact GUI will perform the same tasks as a 'command line in Terminal '
drag the complete Music folder
with libraries and iTunes Music folder inside to the BatChmod Icon and drop....
check path is correct.... tick if not already.... Owner=R W X, Group=R, Others=R,
then tick 'Apply ownership and priviledges'...'Unlock' & click Apply...
provide password... all done very quick...
come back and report the results Raymond .... TP

I just installed fire fox 4 and my menu bar has disappeared? I want it back!!

Igoogle is my home page but now firefox is behind it and has chan ged how it looks/works. The bar with Help, Bookmarks, Tools etc has gone. I want them back where they were. Mozilla is now the line where I type my web pages and I don't want it there. I want Google

Right click on toolbars space. Check Menu Bar.
In Fx4 this will hide your new Firefox button but you can switch from one to the other.

Vista Ultimate, Firefox 4.01 just installed. The back and forward buttons do not work with this new installation. Help please.

O?S is Vista Ultimate 32 bit fully updated. I have just installed Firefox 4.01. I have lost use of back and forward buttons - they are greyed out. Is there a solution please?

It is possible to have earlier data in a tab if the latest tab had target="_top" that means the back key will not work, but if your right-click on the back/forward you see a context menu. As far as I know the only difference between 3.6 and 4.0 ws that the drop-down arrow was dropped but like before you can still right-click.
There are some extensions that mess with the Back/Forward buttons.
There is a difference between gray and '''black''' on the buttons, '''black''' means there is history in that direction.
You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and Firefox 5.0 look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]

After installing 4 add ons and restarting, firefox no longer works - help!

On my PC running Windows 7, I installed these 4 add ons: Measure it, Web Developer, Colorzilla, and Screenshot, restarting Firefox, and only the home page came up, none of my bookmarks were working. I had to manually type in a web address for anything to work. Then that stopped working too. I uninstalled all of the add ons mentioned, and restarted the computer. Now nothing works, only the browser comes up, but with an empty tab, the home page icon does not work either. HELP!

Well, what seemed to work was I uninstalled another add on I had that had to do with gaming and that seemed to do the trick. Wierd.
Thanks anyways.

Help!

Hi HelpAimee!
It sounds like you may need to uninstall your version of iTunes and then reinstall the newest version:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
There are certain components of iTunes that need to be uninstalled in order, so make sure you follow the uninstall steps in the above article. You can then visit the following link to get the latest version of iTunes and install it:

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

Labview Control and Function menu's stopped working.

Most of the menus no longer work. The top level menu will pop up with a right click but the submenu's do not. I cannot get to the submenu which contains a While Loop for example. If I use the stickpin feature then I can navigate the menu's fine.
Labviews main menu does not entirely work anymore also. Tools and Browse are nonfunctional. Sometimes if I restart labview the Tools menu will respond the first time I select it but after that it no longer shows the submenu when I click it.
Very unusual. Thanks in advance for any help.

I figured it out. The only changes I had made to my system was some video card drivers. I have 2 monitors and use Win2k Pro.
I had selected an option to automagically center all popup windows. That was the problem. It was messing with labview whenever a menu/popup was attempted to be shown. Submenus in Labview must be considered or tagged as popups to the operating system. I disabled the "feature" and now everything is back to normal.

Just installed CS5 Design Premium and Adobe Air doesn't work

I just blew over $2000.00 on this software and installed it on my new i7 MacBook Pro. So far, all the software seems to be working, but when I click on help, I get a message that says the following:
"This installation of this application is damaged. Try re-installing or contacting the publisher for assistance."
What this means is all of the help documentation for all of my new software can't be accessed. There are a lot of negative and unproductive things I could say right now, but I would like to get help, so here is a list of what I did...
1: I tried uninstalling Air and reinstalling it - FAIL
2: I tried reinstalling CS5 - FAIL
3: I called Tech Support - They told me to do the above as someone was yelling behind them and making them nervous.
If anyone out there can tell me how to fix this I would be grateful.
I have a 17 inch MacBook Pro with an i7 processor and 8 GIG of RAM and a 500 GIG 7200 RPM Hard Drive.
Thanks.

Can you look at this tech note and let us know if it solves your problem?
