Iweb menu bar is grey

I have uninstalled iweb and reinstalled from original install DVD, but still the menu bar is grey and Iweb launches but that's it. Everything is grey, I cteannot open or start a new project. I've looked at old posts but cannot delete any .Plist files nor any domains as such files do not exist anyway. Can any one help please?

Try the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
3 - launch iWeb and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If that doesn't help continue with:
move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
launch iWeb and try again.

Iweb menu bar

i've created a pretty cool website using iweb. i've really customized it by using layers to cover the template and create my own look, however, i cannot figure out how to change the color or the font of the default fonts on the menu bar or how to place a layer behind the words to change the color of the page itself. can this be done or do i need to wait for an iweb upgrade?

you don't have to cover up the background
you can simply change it from the inspector, and objects from the templet you can just delete. if you want things to go behind one another
1. right click, or ctrl-left click
2. send to back, to front or whatever.
3. choose what you like

Horizontal menu bar displays grey in IE - Please Help

These are my first websites and i have created it in DW CS4. Everything is working and i have checked in multiply browsers. The one issue i can't work out is that when viewed in IE the horizontal menu bar looks grayed out. The main menu should be transparent with a white border, while submenus have a .gif image gradient background also with a white border.
Please help, I would be very grateful and if you would ever find yourself in the Maldives i'm sure we could repay the favour.....

After preferences have been opened and closed, instead of folding back into the menu bar a grey square stays in the far left hand corner of my screen. This is then replicated on every screen. I can't seem to solve this, any ideas?

After using the preference pane, it does not fold away back into the finder bar but leaves a grey square in the top left corner of the screen. When I switch to another screen within spaces, the grey square still appears.

I have the exact same problem.. I tried disabling all add-ons and I'm only using the default theme... still no change. Whenever I close the preferences window it becomes an obtrusive grey square in the top left corner of the screen. It even obscures other open applications and won't disappear until I quit Firefox...

Creative cloud symbol grey in menu bar

I have bought a new iMac and to get it running as fast as possibe I copyed over my old one. Now the creative cloud in the menu bar is grey and I can't log in. I have tried to uninstall it and reinstall it without success.

Mac migration (or Time Machine) does not always work with Cloud programs
Uninstall... run the Cleaner... Restart your computer... Reinstall

-using the cleaner after uninstalling and before reinstalling will usually help

How do you fix the date (day number only) in menu bar to match correct Date and Time Preferences?

My date and time preferences all show up as correct and I get "Sun 10:54 AM" in the menu bar (correct), but when I click that to quickly get the day's date, I get "Sunday, August 5, 2011". The '5' is the only thing that is wrong, and it has remained '5' for the last 3 days, even thought the Date & Time Preferences are correct. Is there any easy fix for this? I don't know if August will change to September, but the day of the week has kept up with time!

I know how to get the full date and time, etc. to show up on the menu bar (and it shows up correctly), so it's just a little 'glitchy' thing that when you click on the date/time in the menu bar, the greyed date remains on the '5th' of August - sort of like that Groundhog Day movie!

How?

I upgraded from 3.6 and could not get the orange Firefox button but only a grey one with misaligned commands. When I hit View/Menu Bar even this button has vanished and the screen resembles 3.6

I use Win7 on a desktop PC. I upgraded Firefox 3.6 to 4.0. Where there should have been the orange firefox button was a grey button 'Firefox' with a small arrow. on clicking this the commands were there, but not properly aligned. There was also no minimise/maximise/exit buttons on the top right of the screen. I checked 'Help' and found no info. I then turned on View/Menu Bar. The minimise/maximise/exit buttons appeared; the grey button vanished and the screen now resembles FF 3.6. However About tells me that I am using 4.0.
BTW, I also tried various Beta versions in 2010 and abadnoned them because the same problem happened.

The orange Firefox menu button will only appear if the menu bar is hidden.<br />
Are you using a custom theme (Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes) ?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

I selected a clip in the Project window in iMovie 11, opened the Clip Trimmer for that clip, chose the part of the clip I wanted to keep with the yellow bars, and "trim to Selection" in the menu bar is light grey so I can't complete the edit.
I'm using a MacbookPro so can't right click to highlight (as was suggested in this forum for the same problem) and can't seem to highlight that area. What do I do?

When using the Clip Trimmer, you click DONE to indocate that you are finished.
The Trim To Selection is a great tool and I use it all the time, but you use it in the main project timeline, not the clip trimmer. Just select the frames you want so that the yellow border is around them. Then right-click and select Trim to Selection.

Cut and paste files by dragging in finder is only possible by giving my password. in the menu bar cmd x is depicted in grey so not available. How to c

I can only cut and paste files in finder (with the mouse) when i give my password at every single action. This is too time consuming of course. The option in the menue bar cmd x is depicted in grey in stead of black, thus not possible. How to solve this? I use the lion version.

Wow, thanks for the tip! Should've known Apple wouldn't have made it any easier for us to tap this hidden function.
In the meantime I've gone back to Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro 13" 2010 model, where I use PathFinder as a Finder alternative that allows cutting and pasting, among other features I like (such as enlarging the default sidebar icon sizes in 10.6.8). My battery life was cut in half with Lion and most of the new features have been supplemented in Snow Leopard by third-party utilities. The only missing feature is iCloud, but I'm convinced Apple will backhaul this functionality to Snow Leopard at some time. Otherwise frustrated Snow Leopard users will move to Windows to move up to the cloud!

Default menu bar - what can I do with this ver. of iWeb?

iWeb default setup ... them = 'white'
Menu items\text:
My first page won't let me capitalize the title (home). I don't want to actually, but:
My other pages won't let me NOT capitalize the menu item titles.
So I'm stuck having an uncapped first menu item, then all the rest are capped.
Is there ANY way to now change the fonts\colors on these default menus?
If not, what would be the most practical way for me to create my own menu bar? Or can I easily replace the default menu bar with my own, after the fact, by just re-linking the pages?
All ears,
Ben

Hello Ben,
Creating your own menu is really easy and oftentimes it works better that the original one.
First to remove the original menu go to the inspector on the page tab, and uncheck the display navigation menu item. Then on your page make a text box and type in the names that you want for your pages select each name (one at a time) and click on the link inspector tab (that is the second one from the right) click on activate link and choose one of my pages in the window, select the page and you are done.
Hope this helps
Mireille

Can you change the colour of the menu bar, it's grey, you have a job to see bookmarks,history,printer icons. Is there a way to colour them to make them easier to see.Already using large icons, but still difficult to see icons for elderly relative.

FF4 superb, install it yeasterday, but the only gripe is the grey menu bar, been in to customize, but no opitions to change/ add colour.

You can do that by using a theme such as Firefox 3 theme for Firefox 4 - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/firefox-3-theme-for-firefox

Icon airport disappeared from menu bar,only see grey space

Open your System Preferences and go to the "Network" pane. Enable "Show Wi-Fi status in Menu Bar".
