Missing "today" option in sidebar

can the today option be added back to sidebar in 10.8.5?

Nevermind--I was able to figure it out after reading another response I didn't see before. "Save" a search and check box to add to sidebar. Thank you.

Missing the left hand sidebar in the keychain window

Upon starting my MacBook Pro (mid2009) today running Yosemite 10.10.1 I needed to check something in keychain. To my surprise the keychain window is missing its left hand sidebar, where you see the different keychains you have on the machine and can switch between them. Hence, no chance to switch between keychains. And no chance to toggle the sidebar on or off. Does anybody have an idea how to fix this? I saw similar reports on different forums - but unfortunately no solution.

Deleting preferences can fail to work as expected on 10.10 - the preferences are cached in memory & apps will write them out to the plist file at any moment (restoring what you think you have deleted).
Make sure to reboot, then remove the Keychain Access preferences file when the app is not running.
Other tests…
Does it do the same in Safe mode…
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455
How about under a new user account? Create one in 'System Preferences > Users & groups' as a test.
If it fails in the test account, try changing languages to see if that alters it, logout between tests.

Missing PDF Options in Acrobat Pro 8

For some reason, on some machines in the office "PDF Options" is missing when we try to print to the Adobe PDF 8.0 printer under OS X 10.4.10. Both machines are Intel-based.
Two of the machines in the office have the option, two don't.
We thought it was something specific to these machines. Then yesterday, on a brand new MacBook Pro, we reinstalled a user's license from the DVD and the same thing happened: no PDF Options. This machine had been used for two days. Microsoft Office 2004 installed, Firefox and that's it - otherwise bog standard. Never had an Adobe product on it, never had Acrobat on it. Updated to 8.1.1, no change.
We've tried completely uninstalling, trashing all the Adobe and Acrobat-related items in /Library and ~/Library, same with prefs. We've searched the entire machine for any string that includes 'adobe' or 'acrobat' and trashed them, emptied the trash, restarted, then reinstalled (re-serialising in the process). We've reset the printing system and added the printers back.
We've cleaned the cache files (using AppleJack, a great little utility), repaired permissions, reinstalled the 10.4.10 Combo Updater, DiskWarriored the machine.
We're tearing our hair out, because in our office, this option is vital to the daily work flow.
Is anyone else seeing this? Anyone got a reliable fix?

I "think" that there may be a way to correct this, but it's at your own peril if it doesn't. Then again what have you got to lose? Here is something from another public forum. It's about Acrobat 6.x and 7.x but it sounds like the same issue. If you decide to try this and it works let us know.

Re: Acrobat 7 Pro: missing PDF Options menu in all applications
Hi all,
I solved this error with Acrobat 7 by deleting the com.adobe.print.AdobePDF7 folder from the user library preferences. It may be missed by those who are deleting preferences because it is not grouped with the com.adobe.acrobat.xxx.plist files.
The equivalent folder for Acrobat 6 is called com.adobe.print.AdobePDF located in the users home library preference folder.
I hope this helps.
Best,
John"

Missing Menu Options in Flash Builder

I encountered a mystery surrounding several missing menu options in one of my Flash Builder workspaces recently. I wanted to create a new skin for a List control so I right-clicked on my skins folder and looked for the New MXML Skin option. And I looked. And I looked some more. But it wasn't there.
I happened to have another copy of Flash Builder open in another workspace so I gave it a try in that project. Sure enough, the New MXML Skin option was there along with a couple of other options that were missing in the first workspace. Here's a list of the menu options missing from the File --> New menu in this workspace:
Flash Professional Project
MXML Item Renderer
MXML Skin
I'm not sure why those menu options went missing but I was able to work around it by recreating the workspace. I simply created a new workspace, copied all of the projects into the new workspace folder and then imported all of my projects into the new folder. I then had a full set of menu items.
I poked around a bit trying to figure out what went wrong but wasn't able to find a conclusive answer. My best guess is that it has something to do with the fact that I was previously running the Flex 4 beta and that's when I created the workspace with the problem. I compared the workspace .metadata folder and, curiously, there were 25 folders inside the .plugins folder for the problem workspace but only 12 for the newly created one.

This is an eclipse thingy, menus get cached in the workspace' metadata. If you try using a newer build of Flash Builder with a workspace from the previous version, you may notice this behavior.
The workaround is to create a new workspace and import all projects there.

Hello I have the Latest version of Adobe Lightroom 5 to date (8/26/14) however just recently when I open the develop tab I'm missing two options on the right side column "Lens correction" and "Effects" I do not know I've hit some setting to remove those options or if this latest version deleted those options? Any help would be greatly appreciated and please excuse my ignorance :/

Right click next to one of the other headers and you will get a pop-up to enable the missing ones.

I am missing Insert options in Dreamweaver CS6. Where do I find header and navigation?

A lot changed between DWCS6 and DWCS6 Cloud. You need to make sure you are using tutorials/resources built for Version 12.0x.
IIRC, "Structure" is the new name for "Layout"
Dreamweaver Help | Removed features | Dreamweaver CC
EDIT: Development of the perpetual license version of DWCS6 has stopped. There is no way to add that into the version of the program you have. To get those options, you would need a Cloud Subscription where you can get DWCS6 Cloud, DWCC and DWCC2014.x (all three can be installed at the same time, they just won't run at the same time).

Missing imovie options in File Analyze Video

How do I enable the "People Finder" option in iMovie '11? When I select "File" the only option for analysis is "Analyze for Stabilization". I don't know if I am missing other options, too.
Checking this thread (https://discussions.apple.com/message/12472264#12472264), I verified I DO have the "Show Advanced Tools" enabled.

That indicates where the problem reside.
A. reg downloading iMovie - Have no idea - my are on a iLife DVD
B. BUT - try this first
• Start a new User account
• Log into this
• Now try iMovie
If the tools are OK here - then the problem to 99.5% resides in a bad pref file
If so - You need to trash MORE
• Delete iMovie pref. file
iMovie pref. file resides.
Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/ "Your account" /Library/Preferences
and is named. (one or more of these)
com.apple.iMovie.plist
com.apple.iMovie3.plist
com.apple.iMovie7.plist
com.apple.iMovie8.plist
com.apple.iMovie9.plist
com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
and find
com.apple.iApps.plist
While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this/these file/s out on to desk-top.
Now restart iMovie.
If You run Mac OS X.7 or more - then the Library in the User-account folder is invisibly and need to be set to be viewable. IT IS NOT in the Library on Root level (when opening MacintoshHD - first window = root level)
( It can be done like this: Open Terminal, then enter: chflags nohidden ~/Library
Press return, then restart, and it will always be visible until the next major update, when you do the same thing again. )
or - do like this.
On the Finder window at the top left of the screen,
Hold down the Option key and clicked on Go.
This allowed You to see the Library folder and select it.
Then keep the Option button pressed down in order to see and select the Library folder.
Once found it, You are able to navigate to the iMovie preferences file and move it to the trash. iMovie then start’s up fine!
Yours Bengt W

Missing Job Options

Sorry if this has been asked before, but a search does not seem to turn up much.
I'm missing job options on Adobe Distiller 9 Pro. Here are my stats:
G5 1.8ghz, 4gb RAM OSX 10.4.11.
Acrobat 9.1.3 Pro
We just purchased this upgrade yesterday, downloaded and installed. Previously we had Acrobat 6.0 Pro. My problem is that anytime I start Adobe Distiller I get only two joboptions: PDFX1a 2001.joboptions and PDFX3 2002.joboptions.
All other joboptions do not show. I can see the rest of the job options in the following location: Macintosh HD>Library>Application Support>Adobe>Adobe PDF>Settings
I have tried fixing/changing permissions. I have tried deleting this folder. When I delete, Adobe Distiller recreates all job options, but I still cannot see more than the 2 previously mentioned job options. I can delete the following folder which Adobe Distiller recreates: Macintosh HD>Users>~username>Library>Application Support>Adobe>Adobe PDF>Settings. This folder is empty when created. I can copy job options to that folder; Adobe Distiller still only sees 2 job options.
When saving a new job option in to either location I get an error. If I save to the desktop and copy into either location Adobe Distiller will then recognize the new job option. Someone else on another forum had a similar issue which is how I was able to find out that I could save and move.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to force Adobe Distiller to recognize these missing joboptions? I would really rather not have to recreate them if I don't have to.
Additional info that I think may be pertinent to this:
I suspect that this is a permissions issue related to the following: My user account is a network account. We have a Windows 2003 SBS server running Active Directory. Our usernames (and therefore shortnames) are standard. First Name period Last Name. Ie., Erik.Youngren I have Acrobat 9 Pro installed on my PB G4, but my user account here is a local account with no period in the shortname. No issues on the PB.
But if this is the case, why would Distiller then see the newly created joboptions when copied into the Settings folders?
I'm out of ideas!

Well. For anyone else who may run across this issue. Further googling came up with someone else's issue on Windows, whereby installing Acro 9 while earlier versions of Acrobat were still on the HD led to incompleteness and instability.
Actually. That's a windows only thing. You can run all the versions you want on a Mac.
The fix must have had something to do with the reinstall.
Actually, there is one exception Graf.
if you have multiple versions of Acrobat installed, you may run into a problem where two or more copies of the AdobePDF Driver file installed. The problem stems from the fact because of the way Adobe names the AdobePDF with such names as AdobePDF 7.123 and adobePDF 8.056 and so on it has a a unique name and therefore is added to Print driver list. But when its shown in the Printer list you have something like :
AdobePDF 9.0
AdobePDF 8.0
HEWLET-PACKARD DESKJET 990CSE
LABELWRITER 400
the problem arises in regardless of which one you choose you end up making double copies of the PDF. I've had this happen to myself.
the cure is to remove any and all versions of AdobePDF from Printer Utility, then Open the newest version of acrobat and have it repair installation. (Install the Adobe PDF Driver).
All older versions can use the newer version because it has all the new features plus all the old features. However, while an older version may work any features that came out after will not work.

Dictionary missing all options but Wikipedia

I just installed Leopard on my iMac G5 and Powerbook G4. Both Dictionaries are version 2.0. On the iMac I have 4 dictionary choices (New Oxford, Oxford Thesaurus, Apple, and Wikipedia), whereas on the Powerbook there is just Wikepedia, which only works when online.
Any ideas why this difference, given the identical upgrade?
Thanks much,
John

Thanks. I just tried updating Quicktime and you were right that I did need to update. But unfortunately it has not solved the problem. I am still missing all options for encoding in DVD. Media Encoder also failed to export .h264 for Vimeo this morning - created some very messy-looking files. I'm not sure what is going on, but I'd love it if someone could help me fix it. I'm (of course) in the middle of a big project and supposed to deliver in DVD.
Thanks

Mail app missing "Archive" folder in sidebar for iCloud account.

This seems like it should be an easy fix but, it's not. I've been trying all day. Basically, the sidebar in the mail app now only provides Inbox, Sent, (VIP if set up) Junk and Trash. It used to also have three other folders. (Drafts, Archive and Flagged) Now, I am able to view Inbox, VIP's, Sent, Drafts and Flagged by the drop-down menu right above "MAILBOXES". But neither on the drop-down menu or the sidebar is the "Archive" folder located. If I want to archive a message I certainly can by clicking the "Archive" button in the top toolbar. But, the whole folder used to be in the sidebar where I can view "saved" messages just like I would on my iPhone.
I have found a way to put it back temporarily but if I quit the mail app, the folder goes missing again. These are the steps I have done to put it back in the sidebar.
Original image when app is opened: No "Archive" folder.
I click the gear on bottom left of app. And then I clicked "Get Account Info".
This new window opens up and give me options. And so I clicked "Archive" and then "Show Messages".
After doing that I noticed that the "Archive" folder is now back where I have always seen it. And, I can view all messages I've saved there whether it be from the mail app, my iPhone or iCloud on the web.
If I quit the application I have to start all over again to retrieve the folder. Although it's not a long process it can be annoying and for some reason it opens two full windows of the app.
I am only asking about this for iCloud e-mail not Gmail or Yahoo! etc.
Why is the folder not there anymore? How can it be placed permanently again?
I can import it but anytime I move a message to the imported "Archive" folder it's only saving desktops messages and not all that possess iCloud.
The simple question is how to keep that "Archive" folder in the sidebar, as it is pictured in the last picture, the way it used to be, all the time.
-Randy

I had the same problem today with (Mavericks) Mail and was able to fix this easily:
In the search bar, look up some email which is in the archive. In the upper right corner of this email you find two links: "details" and "archive ..". klick on that "archive". it will place the archive folder back in the sidebar permanently.

Missing "Photoshop" option in the Drop-down Menu Toolbar

So today, I hear about "Syncing" my settings in Photoshop CC. In asking how to do that, I am told to go to the "Photoshop" option of the Dropdown Menu Toolbar. I don't have such an option -- my choices are File, Edit, Image, Layer, Type, Select, Filter, 3D, View, Window, and Help.
When I go to Edit/Preferences/Sync Settings, I am not signed in and was never Synced. I have logged in to my Adobe Account online with Internet Explorer. And under the /Help dropdown menu is "Sign Out (my Adobe user name)"
What am I missing?
Update:
I see. The “Photoshop” option is a Mac thing. I have a PC. In any event, going to “Edit > [your Adobe ID] > Sync Settings Now” does not work because I lack the “[your Adobe ID] ” option. “Sync Settings Now” option is visible but only takes me to the “Preferences” area as described above.
