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 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!
Patrick<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>
<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<script src="//html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
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 windows not displaying properly in Acrobat 11 STD
When I try to print any PDF file (clicking File->Print) the Print Menu that opens is missing all text in the window incl all buttons. I tried installing a separate Adobe Reader in local Danish language just to test the application but this was worse. So uninstalled and sticking to Acrobat.
I also tried click File->Properties and this is also not displaying properly.
I fear this has something to do with Microsoft compatibility, but I don't know. I have MS Windows 7 Pro SP1 installed.
The good news is I can guess the bottom 2 buttons - 'OK' (left button) and 'Cancel' (right button) which at least allows me to print in the default preferences.
Any ideas how to fix? I have the latest update installed.I have been working together with Adobe support team to solve this. After multiple rootcauses we found the issue.
The issue was caused by not having the default windows font 'Segoe UI' installed. Sounds strange that Win 7 does not come with the font that is used by this application but the tip worked.
Google a website to download the font from, I used 'Fontpalace.com' - install the font - and voila the issue is solved. -
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. -
Horizontal Menu Bar not displaying when published as it views in live view or preview
I am working on putting together our site and haven't used Dreamweaver in years so very rusty. I have a horizontal menu bar that is working properly in "live view" and in "preview" mode but when I publish the submenus are not working.
You can view the site at www.pulsecc.org
Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you so much! That's a little frustrating how long I pulled my hair out trying to figure something this simple out!
Thanks again! -

Horizontal spry menu dropdowns not displaying properly in IE7
Hi,
Grateful for any help! I have a dreamweaver template which works fine on a Mac with Firefox and Safari, but when opened in IE7 on a PC the menu bar accros the top is ok but the dropdowns appear as a horizontal list, instead of vertical, and the submenues are not displayed. The site is not available on the web Can anyone advise how to fix this please?
I am using the default Spry code and Dreamweaver CS5, and have run Update to ensure latest versions, on iMac with Snow lepoard - also updated.
Many thanks
RichardHave a look here http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/menubar/AutoWidthHorizontalMenuBarSample.h tml and when you get down near the bottom of the page add !important as per following
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul li {
display: block;
float: none !important;
width: auto;
white-space: nowrap;
border-bottom: solid 1px #EEE;
The !important will override any changes that the JS wants to make.

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,

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? -
Spry Vertical Menu does not display properly when uploaded to server.
I am using Dreamweaver CS5 Version 11.0 Build 4909 on Windows XP. The website I am working on is displaying the ordered list incorrectly. The drop down submenus are not lined up underneath each other.
So I did a basic one and uploaded it to the server and had the same outcome. Locally it looks fine but uploaded to the hosting server not fine. Below is the code from the document called deleteme.html. I am new to all this so I apologize if this seems basic. Thanks for your help in advanced.

</html>Hello all,
Thanks to everyone who replied to my post. I have it working now but I have other issues that I will post separately.
Here was my thought process and you can tell me if I am right or wrong. I was working with multiple pages that I was using Spry. I had only one folder set that all the Spry Assets were being saved into. My thinking was that they were getting over written. So I deleted the folder and re-built the page. When I deleted Spry Assets folder it showed me I had 6 pages linked to the Spry Assets folder. I also deleted my Spry Assets folder on my hosting server....thought I would really start from scratch. When I went to upload the files I created a SpryAssets folder and what I realized I had originally put a space between the y and a of the folder name. So I am not sure if the elements in the Spry Assets folder were getting over written or it was because I had a space in the folder name. Thanks again, Mike -
Menu bar not working properly in IE 7 or 8.....
www.ken-buchanan.com
Hey dudes,
I am new to all of this, and i see my site works fine in Chrome and Firefox, but in IE 7 and 8 the menu appears along the top, rather than the side
I am guessing it has something to do with borders or margins???
but could someone who knows what they are doing have a look and tell me where i have gone wrong?
thanks so much....G'day,
make the following corrections:
ul.MenuBarVertical
margin:0; // otherwise it will centre in the middle of the page
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
font-size: medium;
cursor: default;
height: auto;
border: medium double #000;
background-color: #000;
color: #FFF;
width: 8em; // to stop the menu from spreading itself across the width of the page
I hope this helps.

Pictures and texts are not displayed properly
Hello Apple users,
I've the 15 inch Macbook Pro with retina display, running Mountain Lion. I have noticed that when I chat with my friends in Facebook, the texts in the chat window are not displayed properly. This also happens when flipping through photos that were uploaded in Facebook. Also, pictures are not displayed properly in other websites. For example, today I was reading the news in the Guardian when I noticed that the top bar and a picture weren't displayed properly. The top bar should have showed News, Sports, Comment, Culture, Pensions, etc. all in the same line. Also look at the photo titiled "Should building socities do buy-to-let?" I took a screenshot from the guardian and you can see the photo here: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0ByQ7VP0wjFM-U0ZIOXlwMm13Vnc/edit?usp=sharing
Do you guys have any suggestions how can I fix these issues?
Thanks for reading and your helpFrom the Safari menu bar, select

I am a professor and frequently need to open pdfs of academic journal articles from electronic databases. Within the last two or three weeks, when I try to do this using Firefox, only the first page of the pdf displays and the rest are blank. In addition, a bar appears across the top with the message "This pdf file may not display properly." So I have had to switch to Internet Explorer to open the files and do my research. What is going on and how can I fix it so I can open pdf files from the Web in Firefox and have them display properly?
My question is simple - why would you put an application in production that has a lot of bugs? To replace a good and steady Adobe product? My customers will believe that I put a pathetic fallible form online. They are not sophisticated on computers so I just tell them to use IE. Ugh
I must agree with pgwebgirl! -
Colours of imported postscript not displayed properly in illustrator
Hi,
I produced a colour map and colour gradient legend as a postscript file (.ps) using generic mapping tools software running under linux. When I import this file into illustrator (in windows 8) the colour map is fine, but the colour gradient does not display properly. It appears as a bunch of white spaces and vertical colour bands of random colour. When I then try to export the file as a .pdf the colour gradient appears as solid blue. I've also tried producing a .pdf instead of .ps but it makes no difference.
It's worth noting that I have done this in the past with no problems. This particular problem first occurred a few months ago and is now persistent.
Any help or suggestions are appreciated.There are no import options to change in Illustrator to make it work. Usually I argue against using Illustrator as a general purpose PDF editor, but since it seems to be your only option here it is better than nothing (i.e., what you got from Illy itself).

The problem is that the color bar is a 4-bit color image. Did that recently change with an update of your mapping software? Open one of your Illy files that were okay and check the color bar -- is it vector or bitmap? If it's a bitmap, can you "edit" it with Photoshop? (It's not a good day to be an Adobe spokesperson: much to my surprise, Top Market best Seller Photoshop cannot edit 4-bit color images!)
Let's talk Versions as well. I distilled with Distiller 9, but it seems that is not the magic solution (as you already see that it worked). Both Illustrator and InDesign: CS4. Platform: Windows 7.
That combo works for me.
A minor -- relatively unrelated -- note:

I also tried to import the .ps file into indesign (which I've never used before), as you suggest, but I got an error about the program not being able to recognize the file format (maybe a plugin missing?).
No, that indicates you attempted to "open" your ps. You must create a new document first, then use "Place" -- Adobe's terminology for what every other program on the planet calls "Import". It's relatively inconsequential, because either failure or success with InDesign doesn't mean that much; I only included it to point out another blatant unnecessary difference between the two programs.
