Mountain Lion Toolbar not displaying properly

Hi all,
I'm running Mountain Lion 10.8.2 on an iMac with Preview 6.0.1 (765.4). In Preview, I cannot see the icons on the toolbar buttons. The toolbar buttons are there and functional, but their identifier icons are blank so I cannot tell which button does what without guessing. If I go to edit toolbar, those configure buttons also come up blank. Quiting are restarting Preview does not help. All my software is current and there are no updates availible. In ~/Library/Preferences I only have these Preview files:
com.apple.Preview.LSSharedFileList.plist
com.apple.Preview.SandboxedPersistentURLs.LSSharedFileList.plist
com.apple.automator.Open_in_Preview.plist
Any ideas?

Hi macjack,
I actually don't have a com.apple.Preview.plist in my ~/Library/Preferences/ and am wondering if that is causing my issue. After quiting Preview and opening the program again, the file doesn't get created. I'm not sure why I am missing that preference file as I never deleted it.
     Preferences >pwd
     /Users/Kat/Library/Preferences
     Preferences >ls com.apple.Preview.plist
     ls: com.apple.Preview.plist: No such file or directory

  • OSX Mountain Lion "Disk not ejected properly" USB-Finder not responding

    Hello,
    I just upgraded to OSX Mountain Lion late 2008 macbook pro. Whenever i plug in a USB, it detects it fine. But then when i copy anything to it, it starts but then give the error message "Disk was not ejected properly". After that, my finder hangs and i have to force quit it. And then it doesnt launch unless I do a restart of my computer by pressing and holding the power key because normal restart doesnt work. Happen to anyone? any solution? Thanks!

    Connect the USB device then right or control click the USB device icon on the Desktop, then click Eject.
    Then re connect the device and try copying files.

  • Lion is not displaying properly

    Just installed Lion (two times) it is working well but it is not displaying system video, for example:
    The videos of the multi-touch gestures (in System Preferences) are not shown;
    Facetime is working fine but I dont see image (neither from my iSight camera or the other person, who can see me).  I also can't see the buttons for accept or reject calls, but they're there and working properly.
    In the app store, the buttons for buy or install previous purchases are also not seen.
    This is all very weird because it is all things that come from Apple.  I have installed Java and authorized applets, but no success.  Also Safari is not displaying some windows, other browsers are working fine. 
    I think there may be a software conflict somewhere, I'd appreciate your help.
    Thanks.

  • Mountain Lion Bluetooth Not Functioning Properly

    I am trying to use this softwareto turn the surface that I am projecting the MacBook Pro on into an ActivBoard/Smart Board. It was working just fine in Mountain Lion (after a Google search as it was not compatible to Mountain Lion but I found a work around) but now after installing an system update, it won't connect to my wiimote. I tried adding a new device and the Bluetooth Setup Assistant would not respond for a few seconds and then responded again and it found no Bluetooth devices. It wouldn't find my phone (which was in discoverable mode) or any other computers. Also, the Bluetooth panel in System Preferences was acting a little buggy. I couldn't remove any devices and it would become unresponsive for a few seconds if I toggled Bluetooth off and then back on. Also If I go to Apple Menu>About This Mac>More Info>System Report>Hardware>Bluetooth I see "There was an error while gathering this information." The Bluetooth menu seems normal but I am thinking that there are some issues with Bluetooth. Any Ideas?

    Maybe this will help. If you monitor the "More Like This" box, other solved threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads.

  • SAP CRM WEB UI : Toolbar not displayed properly

    Hi ,
    One of my client's is facing an issue with the toolbar display on CRM Web UI. For example, if he opens up some activity on Web UI, the toolbar is displayed vertically in an uneven format as shown in the image attached herewith:
    Does any one have some idea about rectifying it? I have checked the personalization settings and this problem occurs only for one user.

    Hi Simran,
    Try to debug method IF_BSP_WD_TOOLBAR_CALLBACK~GET_BUTTONS and see how the button and the seperators are placed there.
    May be the seperators are disturbed in the button table.
    Thanks,

  • Mail in Mountain Lion does not display all HTML messages

    For some reason Mail app stopped siplaying most HTML messages. I haven't changed any settings but can't seem to figure out how to make mwaagwa qirg HTML display the way they used to. Thanks in advance!

    how do you log into hotmail at work? via webmail interface? hotmail provides POP email access only when using an email clienet and you probably have Mail set to remove messages from server after downloading them. go to Mail preferences->account->advanced and check those settings. you can change them to leave messages on server or to remove them from server only when they are moved from the inbox.

  • 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 help

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    If any extensions are installed, disable them and test.

  • "OSX Mountain Lion is not compatible with this computer."

    I bought a MacBook Pro (13" retina display) today. Tried to update software. Error mesage said to ujpdate OS. When I tried to, error message said, "OS X Mountain Lion is not compatible with this computer." Anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions?

    All owners of the model seem to have the same problem. Presently there is no 10.8.2 updater for your model. The previous updater has been pulled. Wait a while and one will show up when Apple gets it fixed.

  • Animation not displaying properly in Firefox

    My animation not displaying properly in Firefox. I have searched this forum and others but am only able to find outdated solutions (such as updating to the latest release of Animate). I am on the most current versions of Animate and Firefox and still having problems. Does anyone know of a solution to this, or can direct me to a discussion that already covers it?
    An interesting thing to note is that only the center tree is acting differently, though the commands for each seem to be the same. Also the small mountains are fine, but not Mt Rainier.
    Here is my test page:

    Thanks!

    In case anyone else runs into this issue, I was able to resolve it by rebuilding those portions of the animation.

  • HT2404 Mountain Lion will not download through the apps store.  It shows up in Launchpad, but when the screensaver goes on and I enter my password and my desktop shows up, it has disappeared from launchpad.  I have set my energy saver controls appropriate

    Mountain lion will not download thru the apps store.  It has been purchased and redeemed.  I have set my energy settings appropriately so computer will not turn off during download as Verizon offers a connection that is very slow.  I have set the display to go to sleep (which I have set so I have to sign in again).  When I sign in again, Mountain Lion OSX has disappeared from the launchpad.  I have tried this several times.  I do have Norton Internet Security on my Mac Air.  I turned off the idle time scan on the Norton and tried again.  Same results.  Anyone?

    Ask anyone around here, and they will tell you quite differently. AV software will slow down your computer, can be incompatible with software you use, can cause kernel panics and other problems. It is unnecessay since OS X has it's own protection built-in. AV software can no more tell the difference between safe and unsafe sites on your browser than could an elephant.
    But, hey, who am I to argue with your tech person? Please, don't let me sway your opinion. How about a visit to:
    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
    See these Apple articles:
              Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
              OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              About file quarantine in OS X
    If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using VirusBarrier Express 1.1.6 or Dr.Web Light both from the App Store. They're both free, and since they're from the App Store, they won't destabilize the system. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.)

  • Ap store says "we could not complete your purchase.  OS X Mountain Lion is not compatible with this computer".  I'm running 10.6.8 duel core intel with 15gb of  memory.  Any ideas on why  I can't download?

    Thanks.

    If the OP has this much RAM in their iMac, certain this Mac can run Mountain Lion.
    The reason it might not be installing is that 15 GBs of RAM.
    Your iMac should have (4) equal sized, 4 GB sticks of RAM for a total of 16 GBs.l
    If your iMac is only reporting that there is only 15 GBs of RAM, you have a RAM stick that is either not seated in its slot properly or is defective/going bad.
    This maybe the reason that it won't download it.
    Also could be you are running out of free space on your HD.
    You need, at least 15-20 % or greater free space left on your HD.

  • Mail created w/ mountain Lion will not open in SL10.6.8, or OS X yosemite.

    Mail created w/ mountain Lion will not open in SL10.6.8, or OS X yosemite.  How can I convert it to open?

    After a second call to AppleCare, they had advised me differently than before.  Once they found out that my personal computer has Mac OS X Lion installed from the App Store, they suggested I simply upgrade my parents computer to Lion.
    So, I used my download from the App Store and upgraded.  It went smoothly, but Mail still will not open properly.  And instead of the original error message, it comes up with this:
    "Check with your developer to make sure Mail can work with your version of Mac OS X.  You may need to reinstall the application.  Check if there are any updates available for the application."
    How can I re-install just Mail?  A startup disk is not accessible for me right now.  Can I download the latest version of Mail and install it from the Apple.com website?

  • Lately pdf files from the Web do not display properly; what is wrong and how can I fix it so I don't have to use IE?

    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!

  • Why is my youtube webpage not displaying properly?

    My youtube webpage is not displaying properly. its like tthere is only text and thumbnails and the whle webpage is too damn long. The videos don't play when clicked. Problem on both firefox and chrome. I disabled kaspersky av but it didnt make any difference cuz i thought the firewall mustve been blocking something. check screenshot attached.

    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
