Menu Bar Issues
Alright so, this problem has been going on for some time with my Mac and I just decided to see if i can figure out why it's doing this. For whatever reason nothing appears on my Menu Bar. When I say nothing I mean the Time, Date, Wireless Connection, Bluetooth, Battery Life, basically all the stuff that is suppose to go in the top right of the Menu Bar.. But the thing is I know how to make them appear there. Go to System Preferences, then go to System, then Date and Time, I then click the lock to make changes, input my password, then I begin to set up my Date and TIme. When I'm done I click the little box right next to "Show Date and Time In Menu Bar". A little black check comes up and then I lock it to prevent further changes. Then I exit out of System Preferences and the Date and TIme is not in the Menu Bar and when I go back in, the little check black check next to "Show Date and Time In Menu Bar" is gone... Anyone know why that is?????
-Thanks for all the help.
I have not had the problem ...if I did the first thing I would try would be to trash the Finder plist...Home folder/Library/Preferences... com.apple.finder.plist ...drag it to the desktop and restart the MacBook...
Do you have any third party stuff that is displayed in the menu bar...like Menu Meters etc..if so disable it...

Menu Bar issues on Macbook Pro
I came across this problem with my mac where after logging in I noticed that the menu bar, specifically the battery and wifi icon takes atleast 5-10 mins to appear and when I hover the cursor anywhere on the right side of the menu bar it shows the spinning rainbow. Also the volume button seems to be greyed out as well and usually I have to plug in ear phones and it will go away but only temporarily. This never happened to my mac until today and for some reason I think it has to do with the installation of Adobe CS6 Master Collection. (yes, it was torrented. no, I wont do it again.) I did some slight research and on some website it said that there could be some applications recently installed that could have caused this to happen. If anyone has a solution I would very much appreciate it.
Having the same issue. Macbook Pro 2011, latest Mavericks update ....
Apple menu disappears and reappears when Google Chrome is open/closed. Behaving the same with random programs. Do you have any ideas?? Software is up to date, THANKS!!! -
Hello and thank you in advance for your help.
I am building a website for a small business and following various tutorials etc to help me along the way. I have created a menu bar within the banner with hover formatting etc. but in IE it fails to show correctly and just shows as a white bar. When you hover over it the links show with the correct formatting but disappear again as soon as you move the mouse pointer away. In Firefox it looks correct and works as it should.
One thing I have noted is, when I originally selected preview in IE from within dreamweaver, it worked correctly but the browser was automatically restricting scripts from being run. When I allowed scripts to run it went back to the white bar issue. Can anyone advise what is causing this to occur? The website is www.kelstarproperty.co.uk
Many thanksHi Simon,
please have a look into your "Banner_menu.css". There you can change/play with the colors of your menu bar. I tried this here (your code is "coded out" with /* ... */):
/* Menu items are a light gray block with padding and no text decoration */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a
display: block;
cursor: pointer;
color: #000;
/* color: #FFF;*/
text-decoration: none;
The result looks like this:
Good luck!

MacBook Pro and WeatherPop menu bar issue
I noticed that my weatherpop application is not automatically starting when my macbook pro boots up even though it is listed in my auto login list. So, I double clicked on it in the applications group and all it does is reload my menu bar and won't load. I tried it over and over getting the same results. Anyone else having this issue?
Help, anyone?

Hey
One of our clients on Yosemite is failing to sync constantly.
Since sync hasn't worked on logout for quite a while we changed our profile settings to sync in the background every 5 hours.
However, when I try to access the menu bar item to kick on a sync manually it just beachballs on this particular client.
On inspection of the homesync process in Activity Monitor I can see that the process is not responding but even after quitting it, the problem just persiusts and the menu bar item is inaccessible.
On the odd occasion that the menu bar actually brings up the menu, "Sync Home Now" does nothing.
I've not come across this on any of our other clients so just wondering if there's anything obvious to try?I have had the same problem. Leopard was installed 4 months ago, and has been updated regularly. Yesterday, after booting up as usual, Spotlight (and Google Notifier) were the only menu bar icons left. Clock, battery status, time machine, etc were gone. I checked, and SystemUIServer was not running. Starting it manually corrected the issue.
However, I now have to manually start SystemUIServer on each boot-up. How can I get it to start up automatically as it presumably did before?
Thanks, -
Hello! I currently updated my machine (MBP middle 2010) to Mavericks and I'm confronted to a problem. It is not a big deal as my mac is working fine but it's bugging me. The wifi icon in my menu bar is always showing an exclamation point on it even though it's actually connected to the internet.
Do you know how to resolve this issue ? Thank you !There is no menu extra supplied for that. There are third-party utilities such as Classic Menu, XMenu, MoofMenu, Claw, etc. Look for these at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.

Safari problem: when I switch back into safari from another application, the menu bar comes up but no tabs or windows. What's going on? Just started yesterday. I have found a workaround: when I Command Tab back to safari, I hit command T to open a new tab and Command W to close it, and my other tabs are visible.
I have tried shutting down, closing tabs, with no success. What's going on and how can I fix it?
Thanks,
Cindi B
PS: I'm not sure of the actual OS level, but I have not allowed it to upgrade to Maverick yet; concerned about it because of a few things I've read...A Safari extension or third party plugin may be causing the menu bar issue.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect: Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
As for which OS X is installed.
Click the Apple () menu top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac.
The version is noted there.
v10.6 Snow Leopard v10.7 Lion v10.8 Mountain Lion
It's your choice whether or not to upgrade to Mavericks. If you decide to do this, make sure your Mac meets the requirements noted here. -
Add cell border to spry menu bar
Hello,
I need help with editing a style sheet for a Spry menu bar I
made in Dreamweaver CS3. All I need to do is to add a thin (1px)
dark gray border to the cells on the main navigation bar.
Is there a bit of code I have to change/insert in the style
sheet? I can't figure it out. Please help.
Thanks,
KevinI have not figured out how to make the background images
different in the menu and sub-menus but to add a background image
in general you must double click on the css rule
ul.menubarhorizontal ul under the css style bar "all rules" and
select background and then you can place a background image.
Depending on the image and how you would like it to display you
will want to alter the following options: repeat, attachment(not
really necessary for a menu bar image), horizontal and vertical
position.
I solved my menu bar issue by making the graphic long enough
to fill both the menu bar area of 118px (it just cuts off the
extra) and sub-menu area of 235px .

Menu Bar Icons Appear...then Disappear, then Reappear
I can't find this problem anywhere else on the internet being addressed. I have a MacBook Pro 2Ghz Intel Core Duo. Ever since I did a clean install of Leopard I have this weird problem. In the upper right corner where the Finder, Battery, Volume, Wireless, Date/Time and Stacks Icons are located, they will appear, then disappear, then reappear constantly. Ive tried restarting, Ive even gone into the System Preference to choose the Time/Date option. When I click display time in Menu Bar it will let me select it, then when the icons disappear that option goes away in sync. Very strange, has anyone else had this problem and have a cure for it?
I'm having the exact same problem and I know what's causing it but I don't have a solution to fix it. It is happening for me due to my Firewire CD/DVD drive. It's just a regular Sony drive that never had any problems with 10.4. Now though when DVD is mounted it starts up the menu bar issues. When I eject the DVD the menu bar goes back to acting normal.
I did a google search and found another thread on the macfixit forums. One guy found a solution to fix his problem with it and that was to trash these two preference files in your home/Library. One was com.apple.finder.plist and I can't remember the other one. I tried it but it doesn't work for me since it seems to be my firewire DVD drive that's causing the issues.
Do you have an external Firewire device connected? If so try disconnecting it and see if that fixes your problem. I sure hope apple fixes this issue soon. -
Adding detail regions to Spry Menu bar
I'm trying to create a Spry horizontal menu bar so that when you click on the drop-down menu item it brings up detail regions pertaining to each drop down title. If I create a Spry data set and choose Master Detail Layout, the menu it creates is static, and I would like the list only to appear (drop down) when you rollover the menu bar title. Is there any way to do this? I'm very new to Dreamweaver so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've been using my MacBook Air for a few months now, and in just the past few weeks, a finder/menu bar issue has appeared. When I startup, it takes the menu bar at the top of the screen a few minutes to open. The dock appears, but I cannot open any applications. The Finder icon in the dock does not have the blue dot indicating that it is running, so I have to wait. Though not terrible, this is annoying and any help would be appreciated.
Have you tried using Disk Utility to run a permissions fix on the hard drive? What applications have you been running, or have you installed?

Menu Bar Icons no longer showing, not able to switch on in control panel
I had sleep problems with my MBP (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2449728&tstart=0) and as such I did a combo update as this could possibly solve it.
However, now all the control panel icons in the menu bar have gone (like the clock, network, airport, etc) and I am not able to switch them on in the relevant control panels. If I hit the tick box 'show in menu bar' of any control panel it ticks it for a split second and immediately removes the tick.
I am able to turn it on via /System/Library/CoreServices/Menu Extras/, however after a restart all is back to previous state, no icons in menu bar.
I redid the combo update > no success.
any ideas?I did that and all is well in the other account.
in a moment of inspiration, I reinstalled the
Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
from a backup and this solved the Menu Bar issue.
Thanks for thinking with me.
