Menu Bar Battery display keeps dissappearing!

Having a problem where the menu bar battery display keeps dissapearing, Seems random, The space where it would otherwise be remains but it is just a blank space and if you click on it then as it should it opens the power menu and the battery display reappears! HELP

Reset PRAM
option/alt - apple/command - P - R during start up until you heard chimes at least 3 times.
and or PMU might help you.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303319
Also set the the battery to show "time" if you accidently switch it to other mode, to see how it work in displaying time remaining.
Good Luck

Help - My Horizontal menu bar does display

I have read other posting on similar problems and tried those suggestions. But I still can get my menu bar to display.

Your support has no clue. The problem is that the code on the page is looking for the Spry asset files with these links -
<link href="../SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<script src="../SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
But the page itself is already at the root of the account, so there is NO ability to go up one folder level as the code you have on the page directs. Furthermore, if I browse to this location -
http://www.jarthurssalon.com/SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js
which is where the asset files SHOULD be found if you have in fact uploaded them, I get a file not found message. You need to do two things -
1. Fix the code on the page (in the head) to be like this -
<link href="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<script src="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
2. UPLOAD THOSE TWO FILES TO THE REMOTE SITE.

My clock in the menu bar will not keep time.

My clock in the menu bar will not keep time.
However, if I click on it and open Date & Time and do nothing more, it adjusts to the current time but still doesn't work as the seconds aren't advancing. I close Date & Time but the clock stays highlighted/selectted, which is also strange.
Any suggestions as to how to get my clock running again?

Hi Peter,
Not certain, but I'd try this...
You've probably got a couple of corrupt preference files.
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences/ com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
/Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.systemuiserver.xxx.plist
where 'xxx' is a 12 digit (hexadecimal) numeric string.
This will reset your Menu Bar to the default, you'll need to go through System Preferences to reset the ones you need. (If they are already checked, uncheck them first and then recheck them).
reboot

Spry Menu bar wrongly displayed in IE

Hi,
on my website i integrated a Spry Menu bar with one Submenu, which really works fine in Firefox. The boxes have a defined width of 124 px.
My problem is, if you view this site with IE, the drop down menus don´t work and you are asked to activate activeX or scripts. If you do so the whole menu is displayed white unless you roll over the buttons, you can see what actually should be there. Another bug is that the submenus, are oriented horizontally instead of vertically.
Can anyone help me with this nice IE problem?
Thanks a lot !

Hi Ben,
thanks a lot for your great help. I integrated your recommendations in my sprymenubarhorizontal.css file and uploaded it.
When i preview the site in the browser (Dreamweaver -> Preview in Iexplorer) it all looks like it should.
However when i uploaded the new css file, the change is not visible. It´s still the old mistake.
What am i doing wrong? What i also wonder about is, that the css file has a size of 6.554 Bytes. When i upload it, it only has 6.353 bytes.
Can this be correct? Also the SpryMenuBar.js files are different in size.
Do you have any idae what the problem here is?
Thanks again !
Add: I just recognized that also my html. files are different in size. So i guess this is normal. But where is the mistake hiding? I´courious
Or could you pleas check again from your pc in iexplore? Thanks

Horizontal Menu Bar - Not displaying correctly in Internet Explorer

My issues are occuring in Internet Explorer 8 and 7, haven't tested earlier versions.
I am currently using DW CS5, Spry 1.6.1
The website (not yet complete) is at www3.sympatico.ca/mitchell.richard/
The menu bar as viewed in Firefox is correct. In Internet Explorer the menu bar is left justified, hides visited links, and lists horizontal menu items in reverse order.
I work for a Women's Shelter in Canada, as the Information Systems Manager. We don't have the funds to hire someone to build a website and it was decided and I quote "You know computers, you can buld the website". I couldn't get them to understand the analogy that just because a Neurosurgeon can use a scalpel he isn't a Cardiothoracic Surgeon... needless to say, I am floudering on this menu bar. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The red coloured line causes your menu to be displayed the wrong way round in FF. IE shows the menu as you have listed it with Contact Us as the first item.
Advice:
change the float to left so that the listed items start on the left hand side
change the listed items in the order that you want them to appear.

Menu bar not displaying in browser preview.

After inserting my menu bar it doesn't display when I preview it in my browser. I have a rectangle sectioned for my main navigation menu and the menu bar sits on top of it...could this be causing it to not be seen? Also, it showed only once after pinning it...but that isn't what I want because when the page scrolls up and down the menu sits stationary...but it allows it to show??
Anyone have this issue or have a fix?
Thanks,
Lee

<header> and <footer> are html5 semantic tags. Old non-html5 browsers (like IE8) don't know how to handle them without a little help.
Add this code to your <head>

Or better yet, download the .js file and add it to your site, then link to it, that way you won't depend on third party servers keeping the file in the same location...

Menu bar not displaying in Internet Explorer 8

I recently created the webpage http://sterlingfamilyfarm.com/index.html in Dreamweaver CC.
I tested the site with http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ and http://validator.w3.org/ and all seemed good.
But the menu bar is not displaying in IE8... it's displaying as a bulleted list instead.
Also the footer is not displaying properly (not centered, no background color).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Ever since I updated to OSX 10.9.3 the menu bar and dock keep hiding. How can I disable this?

I updated to OSX 10.9.3 and now the top menu bars and the dock always hide. I always have to click at the top to get them to show again. I wan't to see them all the time as before. Any solutions? Btw. my automatically hide and show dock option from the dock options menu is disabled, but everything keeps hiding.

They hide when you use an App in Full Screen mode
Go to the top of the display and force the menu bar to be revealed and click on the blue full screen icon, to take it out if that mode

Help with vertical spry menu bar submenu displaying incorrectly!

I’m new to Dreamweaver and am learning as I go. I am having a problem with the vertical spry menu bar submenu in the Live View. When I scroll over the spry menu bar option that has a submenu, the submenu appears in the upper right hand corner of my screen. (My menu bar is going down the left hand side.) However, when I preview it in Internet Explorer it looks fine after I allow the Java Script to run or the Active X controls, which my browser usually automatically blocks. (The browser just displays a small message along the top and I click on it to allow it.) To get it to do this much, I had to play around with the CSS for the spry menu bar a little bit.
Before, when I clicked on the Live View option, a small message ran along the top in Dreamweaver saying it couldn’t find the Flash Plugin and asked me to download the most recent FlashPlayer, which I did twice. It continued to say that and then I just closed that message that kept popping up, but I think that has something to do with the problem. I then researched that problem in the Spry Framework Help and Dreamweaver Help, but couldn’t find a solution that worked. (Someone had posted a link for downloading the Flash Player for Netscape Navigator, but that didn’t seem to do anything.)
Please also note that I am using one of Dreamweaver’s pre-built layouts. I don’t know if that makes a difference with this problem.
How do I fix this problem so that it displays correctly in the LiveView? And will the message that I get on my browser about allowing blocked content appear on other people’s computer when they open my website?

IE is a big problem child among browsers. Don't use it as your default browser.
For best results, build your site to display & perform well in the web standards browsers like Firefox, Chrome, Safari & Opera. If it works in one, it should work pretty much the same in all of them.
After you're satisfied with how your site looks in the good browsers, then test in IE. If needed, add hacks or conditional comments to make IE behave. There are many web sites that discuss known bugs in IE and how to work around them.
Lastly, the active X nag screens only appear locally. Once deployed on the remote server, you won't see them.
For better answers to your layout questions, we need to see your page. Can you post a URL?

Use CSS floats. Posted here with inline styles for expediency. Ideally, you should set-up some re-usable classes for floats & clearing in your external style sheet.
<div style="float:left; width:250px">

Menu bar not displaying properly

On boot-up I am have a recurring problem. About 80% of the time I login to my account (1 user, auto logs in on startup), several menu bar icons do not load. This includes 3rd party icons and 2nd party icons (built-in). It's difficult to compare the menu bar with everything loaded properly and when some things are missing because I can't look at both at once =/ . The noticeable absences include lack of battery status icon, wifi connectivity icon, and iStat menus CPU usage. Even when I go to System Preferences to make sure that it says "Show ____ status in menu bar" is checked, and when I uncheck and recheck it, nothing happens. Oftentimes I just have to log out and log back in, however it usually doesn't work. Any ideas as to what might be causing this.

The menu bar extras are handled by SystemUIServer, which evidently is having a problem with something you have installed. While it seems to be more robust in Leopard than it was in earlier versions of Mac OS, it can still choke up on third party things (it used to choke even on some Apple menu bar extras). First take a look in your startup items, and see what, if anything, is there and loading menu bar extras, make a note of what it is so you can add it back later, and delete it.
Then try deleting the preference list for SystemUIServer:
/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
and also the cache file for it:
/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.systemuiserver.0017f20dca84 .plist
Log out and back in. Now go to the Apple items and re-enable the ones you need. Run for awhile and restart. Next add ONE of the third-party items back and see how things go. Each time you restart put another item back. You ought to eventually figure out which one is causing the problem. You'll have to learn to live without it, or check to see if the program that has it has an updater for Leopard.

Menu Bar Not Displaying Correctly

Hi,
I am building a website locally and have developed the menu bar in Fireworks. When I preview the page in IE I get a strange strip running across the top of the bar, but it displays fine in Firefox. I have posted this in the Fireworks discussion without much luck, can anyone help?

Thanks for the response, but as mentioned I am still building the page locally, there is no URL yet so I can't post a link.
When I import the Fireworks HTML, the top line of code is:
<table style="display: inline-table;" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="1001">
I wonder if the display field needs to be different?

Adobe Reader 10.0.1 hides menu bar when display image is enlarged

I am running an HP Pavilion Elite HPE 400y connected via HDMI through a Sony Receiver into a SamSung XL-2370 LED Monitor. On the HP I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. When I go to Control Panel / All Control Panel Items / Display and set the screen display size to Medium (125%), Adobe Reader 10.0.1 moves the top of the document being displayed upward to hide most of the menu bar. Also, the tools bar is usually unstable. I can't use any of the menu because mouse clicks in the narrow portion of the menu bar that is exposed are ignored. To shut down Adobe Reader I must start the Windows Task Manager with CTRL-ALT-DELETE and then knock it down because the X on the upper right of the menu bar is hidden. When I set the screen display size to Smaller (100%), which is the usual setting, everything works fine. I like using the larger image size (older eyes), but I can live with the normal size. Unfortunately, to change the Windows image size you must log off your session, so it's not something I like to do more often than necessary.
This appears to be a problem with Adobe Reader 10.0.1 not adjusting properly with the larger image size. God knows what it would do if I used the Larger (150%) setting. Maybe there aren't any old people at Adobe who need a larger image. Otherwise, I'm sure it would have been noticed by now.

As far as I know, Adobe Reader (even v7.0.8) isn't Universal yet, which means it [the plugin] probably won't run natively on your Intel iMac unless you run Safari under Rosetta.

Menu bar duplicate display

I'm having an issue with my menu bar ever since updating to Mavericks.
MacBook Air, 2nd to last generation, roughly 9 months old.
Whenever I connect my second display in the office, I see this menu bar on my laptop.
The organization of items is always different, it's rare that they're all duplicated next to each other.
Sometimes I'll see the same thing on the external display, and sometimes it will look normal.
It's totally inconsistent.
Only one of the two items allows me to click on it.
It's a pretty annoying problem and nobody seems to be experiencing it.
Anything going on here?
Mike

I have found this small app DejaMenu 1.2.2 but it is not available on the mac app store and the developer website is closed (mobile-me) .
No one has an othe idea...
