Menu Bar Application Icons Frozen Upper Right Side of Screen

After installing Snow, the right side of the menu bar is frozen. If I move the mouse to the right side, I get the spinning wheel of death. I can use my computer but I cannot use any program or option associated with an icon to the right side of the menu bar. Is there a bug? Thanks

Well, I didn't realise I had that problem until you pointed it out! And when trying to send a mailshot I found my address book was blank.
I used the solution someone posted on the thread linked to above...
Deleted USER>Library>Application Support>SyncServices folder (when I say 'deleted' I mean moved to the desktop until I was sure I wasn't breaking anything!).
I then deleted USER>Library>Application Support>AddressBook
Rebooted. Then went to System Preferences and turned on Mobile Me syncing (the pane now opens fine). This was seen as a first sync and I chose to bring all Mobile Me contacts (and everything else) back onto my machine.
Seems to be working all OK now.
Let's hope that's my last Leopard problem.... (speaking of which, I also lost all my custom Mail Stationery - not for incompatibility reasons it seems as I was able to bring them all forward in Time Machine).
I then rebooted - opened up System Preferences and turned on (for the first time as far

    Not only this but I can't drag from Itunes and place anywhere on my desktop or onto an external drive. Apple, why are you screwing around with basic functions!? I'm a dj and I need to be able to manage my music files without you ruining my life! FIX THIS!

  • How do I alphabatize all my bookmarks from the drop down menu with the star on the Right side of screen?

    I want to alphabatize all my bookmarks that are in the drop down menu, the menu with the star icon, on the right side of the screen. I do not want to put them in folders or view them in the box from the menu bar and all the answers pertain to that box, and not to the one with the star. Thank you

    I don't think it's possible from the toolbar button.
    However, the action you take in the Bookmarks Sidebar or in the Library dialog will affect the Bookmarks Menu everywhere it is displayed, including the toolbar button, so you only need to use it for the few moments needed to use Sort By Name and then close it.
    Bookmarks Sidebar (either):
    * View menu > Sidebar > Bookmarks
    * Command+b
    Library dialog (either):
    * Bookmarks menu > Show All Bookmarks
    * Command+Shift+b
    right-click "Bookmarks Menu" > Sort By Name

  • Exist or can you add possibility to place menu bar(all buttons) on the right side of window?

    Something like MS Windows menu bar which can be placed on each screen side. On 16:9 screen this will add more space for site and navigation still will be very easy. I wanted attach image with concept but it's not possible here :(.
    I'm not sure if I'm writing in correct place but this support system isn't too user friendly :/

    You could try using Firefox's Safe Mode to reset your toolbars. Not sure whether this is a toolbar problem, but it's probably worth a try.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, check this article on how to start Firefox in
    [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode] and use the dialog to reset toolbars.
    Any luck?

  • Pad - LOCK icon in Upper Right Corner of Screen - How did it get there??

    When I start my Mac (G5-10.4.11) for the first time I have an icon of a pad-lock in the upper right hand corner of my screen and appears in the 'closed or locked' position. I don't know how it got there. I think it has something to do with 'Keychain' but not sure. When I open Entourage (2008) to check my email for the first time following a boot sequence, Entourage asks me for a keychain password and after entering the password, the pad-lock icon in the upper right corner now indicates an 'open' or unlocked condition. I don't have to do this again as long as my computer stays on. I've tried changing the access setting in Keychain to 'ignore' Entourage and Keychain but it still asks me for a keychain password following a re-boot. What did I do to get the pad-lock icon there in the first place? And, how can I turn OFF that 'pad-lock' and not appear on my startup screen? I have another hard drive in my computer that I boot from occasionally and the "pad-lock' icon does not appear on my startup screen and I can check Entourage without entering any keychain password. I really don't need password protection on my home computer, it's very annoying every time I check my Entourage email.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    Check "Keep login keychain unlocked" in the "First Aid" tab of Keychain Access (Utilities folder).
    In the "General" tab, uncheck "Show Status in Menu Bar".

  • Desktop Icons moved to right side of screen and are stuck! Help please.

    Can anyone please help me? My desktop icons have moved to the right side of my screen and I cannot move them. I have tried 'View Options', right clicking the desktop, 'Finder Preferences' and even a couple of terminal commands suggested in different forums. Nothing helps. In addition, I can't drag to desktop anymore. Anyone? Please. This has consumed me for almost a week now. Thanks.

    rightclick on the desktop, click "show view options", choose any thing else as "snap to grid" in the "show icon preview" field.

  • Display doesn't fit screen now. Black bar an inch wide on right side of screen on Satellite L655

    The right side of my screen has a blacdk bar about an inch wid.  It is like the display ends an inch before it actaully does on the right hand side.  Also the taskbar is below the bottong of my screen and I cannot see it.  I have tried to adjust the screen resolution and every other option the control panel offers but nothing changes it.  The last time I had my laptop on it was fine.  I turned it on yesterday and have had it shut down and restarted multiple times and every time since yesterday afternoon the screen is showing wrong.   How do I fix this issue?

    I know this is an old thread, but hopefully you'll get my message.  Did you ever sresolve this problem?  I have exactly the same issue. Thanks, Kevin

  • Menu bar items hung/frozen

    Hi Folks,
    The menu bar items at the top right hand side seem to have frozen. I checked system prefs, and although Airport, spaces and the clock are in the menu bar, all the "show in menu bar" boxes are unchecked.
    The Airport and Spaces icons are greyed out, but both "applications" are functioning properly.
    The time has stopped and the battery indicator is stuck at "(Calculating)".
    I have done a restart but nothing changes. All i get is the beachball when i move the cursor over these items.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Pinkster

    The SystemUIServer runs all the third-party and customized menu items, and if one is conflicting with another or with the server itself, then it can hang and prevent menus from working. Forcing it to quit will reload and refresh the settings that the server uses, and hopefully clear the problem.

  • My ipad 2 won't rotate. i tried reseting it severally my "Use Side Switch" is set to Mute and there is no rotation lock sign close to the battery sign in the upper right side

    my ipad 2 won't rotate. i tried reseting it severally my "Use Side Switch" is set to Mute and there is no rotation lock sign close to the battery sign in the upper right side

    The software switch is in the task bar at the bottom. Double tap the home button and swipe to the right in the bottom of the screen. The speaker icon on the left would be where the software switch would be.
    If you don't see a lock icon in the upper right corner, the screen isn't locked, reboot your iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Call bar is now vertical on the right side of screen. How do I get it back on the bottom?

    Call bar is now vertical on the right side of screen. How do I get it back on the bottom? I've tried rebooting and changing screens but it won't change. I can't find a setting for that call bar.

        This isn't a native setting that I can find Relsea. Did you download an application that maybe has this function? Any luck if you reboot the phone by pulling out the battery?
    Please let us know what happens next.

  • 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.

  • After upgrading to OS 10.10 some fonts appear blurry. Specifically top menu bar, desktop icons, mail

    After upgrading to OS 10.10, some fonts appear blurry. Specifically top menu bar, desktop icons, mail and Safari. This only occurs after the computer has been running for awhile, not immediately after startup. I'm running an iMac, 20 inch, Mid-2007 with the following graphics: ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT 128 MB.
    It's not a huge problem, just darn annoying. Thoughts anyone?

    Hi,
    Please note that this upgrade related problem would very likely be what has been covered by the support document at the link below:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2537
    If you also find any files named to include MessageSorting (which would mean you once have upgraded from a version of OSX earlier than 10.4, which is clearly the case for you), remove those, also, but never restore those.
    Often this is all that needs to be done, but you might then need to force an overall reindexing via the removal of the Envelope Index. Note the special instructions when forcing the reindexing of IMAP or Exchange accounts in the following:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/3.0/en/14019.html
    This will force the reindexing of all the POP mailboxes and all On My Mac mailboxes. With regard to any IMAP accounts if you have any, the practical result of this action of removing the account folder, is that with the IMAP account still set up in the Preferences, Mail will connect to the IMAP server and create a new account folder, and while doing so will index the messages in the mailbox folders of the IMAP accounts on the server.
    Keep me posted.
