Is there an app that hides the status bar?  Or permits customization of it?

I'd like to hide the time in the status bar, or replace it with other information.
Reason: I don't like being reminded what time it is when using a PDA type device, especially not in the middle of the night if I'm reading on it.
Is there an app that hides the bar universally, or lets one replace the time, with say the date or other text?

Are you sure about that? Several highly regarded, widely downloaded apps, e.g., eReader, have an option to hide the status bar. The developer forums are awash in discussions about the commands to hide the status bar-- it's built in to the SDK.
I figure someone will have put out a small program that does nothing but hide the status bar or allow its tweaking... much like StatusBar does on the Palm OS 5 PDAs...

  • Is there a way to hide the status bar when reading a book in iBooks?

    Every other ereader app seems to hide the status bar (at the top of the screen, with battery etc) automatically, or there is a setting to do so. I can't seem to be able to do this in iBooks. What am I missing?

    Nothing - afaik iBook can't do that trick

  • Now that the "Status Bar" is gone, is there a way to hide the "status notification" (bottom left corner) when a page loads? This is on Windows & FF5/6

    The so called "Status Bar" has apparently gone away since FF4, I'm now onto 6 I think, on my work machine. But one of the things I liked about the Status Bar was that it could be hidden entirely.
    With no Status Bar, now when a page is loaded in FF, you get a floating "Status Notification" in the bottom left corner for a second or two while the page is loading (this even happens in FullScreen F11, something I never had to deal with when the Status Bar existed).
    What I want to know is, is there a way to turn off this "Status Notification" entirely? A setting somewhere? Something in About:config? I haven't been able to find anything.

    1. Install the addon Status 4 evar, which puts the status text back in the status bar: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/
    2. Hide the status bar by right clicking the refresh button and unchecking "Addon bar"

  • Is there a BAPI that gives the status information (and possibly more) of a

    Hi All,
    We are using an external document image system where we scan and code vendor invoices. They are send to our SAP system via a BAPI.
    We want to update the status of the invoice in the document image system from the status in the SAP system, so whether it is still open or has been paid and cleared. Is there a BAPI that gives the status information (and possibly more) of a specific vendor open item?
    Regards,
    Gerrit

    None of the spreadsheet apps that work with Excel files offer anything like full native support in iOS.  Apple's own Numbers app pairs down features for the iOS version.  The hardware is simply not up to what a true computer is capable of, so all apps like QuickOffice, DocumentsToGo, Numbers and so forth offer reduced features from their computer-version counterparts.
    I think a custom app will be your only real choice, be it a fully standalone app, or something built in filemaker or some other db-based platform.

  • Is there any way to hide the menu bar?

    I've been trying to find out if there's a way to hide the menu bar unless the mouse pointer is pushed up to the upper edge of the screen, I know there are third-party applications that let you do this (Menufela which uses Application Enhancer that I prefer to avoid as it is causes more problems than it solves as far as I'm concerned), I also know that it's possible to write applications that cause the menu bar to exhibit this behaviour while they're focused.
    But what I'm looking for is a way to make it behave this way all the time without installing Application Enhancer and having to deal with all the headaches that come with it.

    It does seem odd that you can't get the menu bar to hide itself though, I seem to recall something about editing certain files in .app directories to make it hide itself on an app-by-app basis.
    To hide the menu bar for a single application, you need to modify the Info.plist, as described -> here <-.
    This will work on nearly every application. Only on a very few applications it will cause incorrect behaviour, mainly Finder.app.
    So a simple way to realise your wishes, is to create an Applescript, that will "hide and unhide" the menubar for a couple of apps at one time.
    Here a demonstration example: Choose one or more apps. Menu bar will be hidden/unhidden:
    <pre style="
    font-family: 'Courier New', Courier;
    font-size: 12px;
    line-height: 1;
    border: 2px solid #1E90FF;
    width: 700px; height: 200px;
    color: #000000;
    background-color: #F5FFFA;
    overflow: auto;">
    on run
    set xyz to choose file default location (path to "apps" as alias) with multiple selections allowed without invisibles
    repeat with i in xyz
    set appName to name of (get info for i)
    if appName ends with ".app" then set proName to text 1 thru -5 of appName
    tell application "Finder"
    try
    if exists (process proName) then
    set x to display dialog "Is " & "\"" & proName & "\"" & " still running? If so, please quit it now!" buttons {"Cancel", "Quit it!", "No! Not running!"} default button 2 with icon 0
    end if
    end try
    end tell
    try
    if button returned of x is "Quit it!" then
    tell application appName
    quit
    end tell
    end if
    end try
    try
    ((i as Unicode text) & "Contents:Info.plist") as alias
    set infoPlist to quoted form of POSIX path of ((i as Unicode text) & "Contents:Info")
    try
    do shell script "defaults read " & infoPlist & " LSUIPresentationMode"
    do shell script "defaults delete " & infoPlist & " LSUIPresentationMode"
    on error
    do shell script "defaults write " & infoPlist & " LSUIPresentationMode -int 4"
    end try
    end try
    end repeat
    end run
    </pre>

  • Is there a complete list of the status bar icons somewhere?

    I just received a Flame phone and have an icon in the status bar that I can't decipher: a "2" followed by what I think is a SIM card graphic, followed by a "!" - I have a SIM card in slot #1 but I am wondering if there is a problem with it. I checked the help pages and I don't see a topic that describes the different icons. Please let me know if I need to fix something. Thanks.

    It's a bug. Means that a second Sim is not installed, but really it should not show at all.

  • Is there a way to hide the tab bar on my I Pad 2 in IOS 5?

    Anyone know of a way to hide the tab bar in an I Pad 2 using OS5? It wasn't there on the previous operating system.

    I can only assume that you are talking about Safari and the answer is no. Safari now uses tabs. If you want a tab free browser, download iCab. You can use tabs or you also have the old Safari way of browsing open web pages at your disposal. Another rally nice feature is that you can swipe from one open web page to another open web page. It also has a ton of other features that Safari does not have.

  • Is there an app that eliminates the slider?

    Any apps out there that eliminate the slider without unlocking the iPhone? I'm thinking of something like hitting the home button twice, or something like that.

    No.

  • Is there a way to hide the task bar that always displays in Mac OS?

    I'm referring to the area shown in the attached image.

    The menu bar is needed to turn off the Mac and to access to all the tools of all apps, so it's necessary to keep it there. Also, it can only be hidden when you are running a full-screen app (near all apps on OS X Lion and Mountain Lion work in this mode)

  • Is there a way to hide the bookmarks bar in iOS 8 on the iPad? It takes up a large part of the screen when in landscape mode

    Since I upgraded to iOS8, my iPad screen permanently shows the bookmarks bar down the left. This means I can only use about ⅔ of the screen when in landscape mode. Is there something I am missing which allows me to hide/show the bookmarks bar? Thanks

    TThank you so much! I felt it must be something straightforward.

  • I hide the status bar but it sometimes occur and become totally blank.

    ''[Blog link removed by moderator. Please read [[Forum and chat rules and guidelines]], thanks.]''

    Later I realized that it would be the addons that caused the problem, so I tried disabling every addon and I found that with Noscript enabled, it would occur everytime I start firefox.The only way for now to solve the problem is to disable Noscript. Then I send an email to the author and now I'm waiting for the reply.
    Thanks for your reply

  • A calendar that hides the time...huh?!?

    There's a lot to hate about ical, but this little "feature" drives me nuts. I really like the full screen feature; call me crazy, but I do. But when I'm working on my calendar, an application that's all about time, I want to know what time it is. This is an unbelievably stupid omission. I can't believe that Steve let this get by him. What good is a potentially beautiful full screen calendar app that hides the time of day?

    If you move the mouse to the top of the screen in full screen mode you can reveal the menu bar with the clock. However I do agree a clock on the interface could be handy.
    This is a user to user forum. By posting here you are not guaranteed someone from Apple will read it. If you'd like Apple to know about this I suggest you send them feedback.

  • Is there an app to control the volume of an iPhone 3GS?

    I have an iPhone 3GS and the volume keeps going all the way down once I plug the headphones in. Before this started happening the volume would go all the way up. Before that even started happening the phone would repeatedly try to shut itself off and I had to keep pressing Cancel.
    I did buy the phone off of eBay used, to try and go on a prepaid contract once my current contract ends. On the case itself, there are some minor scuffs and such, it does look like it was opened at a time. It still works perfectly, except for the volume glitch right now. Is there an app that controls the volume to keep it from going all the way down?. People say in forums and such to tighten the screws on the bottom (which I tried), and to also open the phone and see if there is anything blocking the volume control thing (like dust or anything) but I'm afraid to try that with the risk of causing further damage. What should I try?.

    to at least try and fix it if none of that works then replace it through apple
