Menu bar reloading when switching desktops

My Menu bar is reloading everytime I switch desktops.
It blinks off, then loads up each icon agin in order.
It is quite distracting.
Any ideas??
Thanks!

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process ("SystemUIServer") in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • CC window pops up when switching desktops in Mac OS X 10.8.4

    I have just updated all my apps to CC. Everything looks fine so far. The only glaring annoyance I see is that the CC window pops up when switching desktops in Mission Control. I normally work with four to five desktops and switch frequently between them. The CC window keeps popping up from the menu bar icon even though there is nothing new to report or alert. Is this a bug, or is there some way to stop this?
    P.S. I just tried selecting "Open As Window..." and the problem goes away. However, if I then select "Pin to Menu Bar..." again, at first it will seem to stay quiet between desktop switches, but as soon as I open the window the first time and close it again, it will resume the annoying behavior when switching between desktops. Seems like a bug to me.

    Hi Geezjan,
    I recently responded to another user which was reporting the same thing. I've passed this info on to our engineering team. Thanks for letting us know.

    hi, i've just bought my first macbook pro, i just installed office mac and when i open the page i cannot see the minimise maximise and close buttons as it's hidden behind the apple menu bar, also when it's at full screen, those buttons do not appear

    Try to edit the size of the page using the sides of the page, or if you are desperate, force quit using command-Q. In full screen put your cursor on the top of the page, and the menu bar will appear. If it doesn't keep "pushing" it up until it does. Hope this helps!

  • Disable the sliding animation that occurs when switching desktops via command → or ← in Mountain Lion

    I would like to disable the sliding animation that occurs when switching desktops via command → or ← in Mountain Lion. It gives me motion sickness!

    No third party applications installed; no gestures changed. It just starts acting up like I described a few times a day. I'll be browsing the internet and go to switch desktops and it suddenly doesn't work.

  • HT6114 Delaying problem when switching desktop

    After upgrading to Mavericks v10.9.2 Update my "Macbook pro Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013" is delaying when switching desktops or switching to mission control. An overall delay problems occured. I need help!

    First off, I meant to title this "When switching spaces application window is not showing."
    Just in case anyone else runs into this problem or any other weirdness with switching between spaces, the answer seems to be trashing the com.apple.dock.plist file and then restarting the dock. The preferences file can evidentially get corrupted and create some problems. Spaces does not have it's own plist file but stores it's data in the dock's plist file. Be warned that this will reset all of your dock preferences including which apps you have on the dock.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

  • External display has no menu bar/dock when waking from sleep in clamshell mode

    After Mountian Lion upgrade, external display shows no dock or menu bar when MBP wakes from sleep in clamshell mode.  I have to open and close the lid of the laptop to sort it out.  Any ideas?

    MacBook is connected to AC adapter. My MacBook is almost new, I have it for only few months, connector looks clean.
    I never had problems with AC adapter but I will try different wall outlet.
    It's a shame that I have no other device with display port output so I can not test if the problem is with my display. With dual DVI connected to my desktop computer display works fine... for more than one year now...

  • Menu bar disappears when applications quit

    Hello everyone,
    I have this issue on my brand New iMac 27 (core i5 / Fusion drive) since it's out of the box : each Time i quit any application, the menu bar disappears and i have to click on the desktop to make it back.
    Any clue anyone?

    I just got a 27" Core i5 with the Fusion Drive and it was doing the same thing - Menu Bar would disappear from screen when I quit any application.
    I called Apple, their guy (nice guy, btw) told me to do the following:
    - power off/shut down the Mac
    - unplug the power cord
    - press and hold the power button for about 10 seconds
    - plug in the power cord
    - restart
    I did this and the problem was resolved. He said this procedure resets the System Management Controller.
    It worked for me - hope it works for you and others who experience this.

  • How to resolve flickering of my menu bar as i change desktops?

    Hey
    I am hoping someone can help with an annoying problem. As i change from one desktop to another on my mac, the top menu bar flickers. This started as i updated to 10.8.3. I can't seem to find a solution to this. Thoughts?
    Regards,
    Muddassar

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Need some help. The top menu bar disappears when in an app...?????

    I recently came across a problem that when I go into an application, for example MAIL, the above menu bar disappears. I am not able to access anything that would be in the above MAIL menu bar. I am still able to write/send/check mail but if I wanted to edit or change something the bar is not there. When I minimize MAIL or any other application I'm in and click on the desktop then the finder menu bar appears again. I'm not sure how to fix this...Thanks for any help someone can offer.

    Try restarting the Mac and see if that helps.

  • Itunes doesn't seem to synch "wirelessly" with my iphone.  It seems to work with emails but not photos / videos I've taken on my phone.  Also, there is no "device" listed on itunes menu bar, only when connected via cables

    My computer / iTunes is set up correctly for wireless (account info. all good), and emial is synched wirelessly.  BUT not photos / videos or songs.  I seem to have to plug my iPhone into my computer for iTunes to recognize my device.  Shouldn't iTunes recognize my iphone wirelessly?  For example, I have read that "device" should show up in menu bar on iTunes but it doesn't unless I'm cabled in.
    Also, when I go to my iPhone to "synch wirelessly with iTunes", the button / tab doesn't light up for me to chose and tells me will synch when "smith - laptop" is available.....
    This is my first iPhone, and just got it so may be user error.....
    thanks

  • Horizontal Menu Bar works when index.html is appended to url, but not otherwise

    My spry horizontal menu bar works like I want when I put /index.html at the end of the url for my website, but when I just go to the website without typing that in the index page shows up fine, but some of the links in the menu don't work. How is that possible if the index page is what shows up when you put in the usual www.domain.com?

    You're fine; don't worry about how you sound!
    I did not get two different pages when I went for your ...tennis.com address vs. your ...tennis.com/index.html address. Were you looking at the pages locally (preview in a browser) or looking at them on your website?
    If your local site contains the files you want to have on the server, synchronize your files [entire local site] (on the files panel, the 'recycle' symbol) to see which files are different, remote from local. Then upload (being sure to include associated files).
    The basic reason for a Spry menu bar not working is if the javascript and the menubar css file are not accessible or not linked to the page. The other reason would be if Javascript is turned off (but you said it worked with one file...) or if the javascript code at the bottom of the page is somehow either not there or broken:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    var MenuBar1 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar("MenuBar1", {imgDown:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif", imgRight:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif"});
    //-->
    </script>
    Well, I've been pretty long-winded about this. I hope you have been able to sort out the difficulty!

  • Adobe Reader plugin on Intel iMac... menu bar gone when viewing pdf?!?!?

    I had Adobe Reader 7.0.5 on my iMac G5 and when I clicked on a pdf file, it opened in a new window with a menu bar at the top. Since migrating to my Intel iMac yesterday, the menu bar is gone though pdf pages display... just with blank space where the menu used to be. I downloaded v7.0.8 and installed and the same problem. I have the prefs set to view pdf files in Safari and, again, they view... just no menu bar! Any idea how to fix this?

    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.

  • Using OSX 10.9.4.  Why does the Finder Menu bar disappear when using Chrome?

    I've used Chrome for a couple years, and all of a sudden the Dock and the Finder Menu bar are not accessible when using Chrome.  They are present in every other app, as usual.  Please help me to get the Finder Menu and Dock active when using Chrome.  Thank you.

    Chrome may somehow be set to run in full-screen mode. I don't use Chrome so can't check its settings options, but try hitting ESC when Chrome is doing this and see if you get the menubar and Dock to reappear.
