Multiple copies of processor control in menu bar

I installed the CHUD tools to use the Processor Prefs and enabled the "Show control in menu bar" option. Now I have 4 copies of the item in my menu bar. Only one of the items has an icon, the others are just little 10 pixel wide slivers, but if I click them I get the same menu drop down as the one with the icon. Any ideas what I can do to fix this?
Thanks!

Hold down the Apple key and drag them off the menu bar - they will 'poof' away.

Sound control in menu bar - display all devices?

Hi all,
I often option-click the sound icon in my menu bar to toggle between airplay devices and my internal (MBP 2011) speakers. I'm getting really annoyed that the full list of them won't come up, only the most recently used one.
I've searched a lot of forums and can't seem to find anyone that's been able to get all their possible airplay devices to show up in the output section this way. I know I can click on sound preferences and change it that way, but I'd love for the command to be a little simpler. Anyone know how to do that?
Thanks!

Soundsource from Rogue Amoeba is a neat little tool. I don't think its officially supported, but you shouldbe able to find it out on the interwebs somewhere. It was a freebie from them.

Yosemite: menu bar reloading while multiple monitors

Hello,
Running Yosemite in a Macbook Pro 15 Retina (Mid 2012) in multiple monitors, clicking in one monitor menu bar and then the other, the menu reloads.
Then, after the reload, I have to click again.
Please see video (you will see only one monitor but I am clicking in the other and then in this one, and you can see the top bar reloading):

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Lost my ability to control what appears on the menu bar

When I upgraded from 10.8 to 10.8.2, I lost my ability to control what appears in the menu bar at the top of the screen.
For example, Time Machine no longer shows there. When I open the system preferences and check the box that says "Show Time Machine in menu bar", the check mark appears briefly, then disappears. It will disappear as many times as I check it. I tried reinstalling Mountain Lion. When system 10.8 was installed, the menu bar worked. When I repeated the upgrade to 10.8.2, it quit working again.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.....

Only the song/album/artist info is displayed on the "now playing" screen.
As for lyrics, play any song to which you've added lyrics. Then press the centre button repeatedly until the lyrics appear.

Creating multiple Spry menu bars in one site

I've been creating a website and I am required to use multiple templates to manage all the different sections of the site. To make it much less of a hassle, once I created one template, I simply saved that template as another template so I would not have to start all over again. On the first template I created a spry menu bar with a certain amount of buttons. And because I created the other templates with that template, those templates had the same menu bar containing the same settings. The problem is, because of the specified settings of the spry menu bar, if I change the amount of buttons from the original to one less, the whole bar on that template will get off center and messed up because the settings for the menu bar are not set to that certain amount of buttons, but if I change the settings to suite that amount of buttons, then the settings for all the templates change and that messes up the other menu bars on those templates because they have a different amount of buttons. Currently my templates all contain 10 buttons and I am wanting to create a new menu bar with only about 4 - 6 buttons. I thought going up to insert and inserting a brand new menu bar would do the trick but when I did that it inserted a menu bar that had all the settings of the already-created menu bar, (ie same background images, and hovers, etc.) as well as the width which, because the width is suited for 10 buttons, it does not properly make the default 4 button menu bar center correctly. And if I try to change the settings on this menu bar then the same thing happens with everything changing and getting messed up.
So after this long explanation, my question is, how can I insert multiple spry menu bars into one site that are not correlated with each other in terms of all the settings so that when changed, will not affect each other? I am guessing I am having this problem because I created all the templates from one template so they are all interlocked, but the page that I tried to insert the brand new menu bar on was not created from any of the templates and was the first page I made at the very start.
http://phonytrojanmusic.zxq.net/ Here is the link to the site. The first page that opens up is the page that I tried to insert the brand new menu bar on. If you click on band choir or elementary you will see the menu bars with 10 buttons that are all interlocked in terms of settings. Also, I'd like to note that if I delete a button in one template, it does not delete that same button in the other templates, nor does it add a button to the other templates if I add one. Only the physical appearance changes because the settings are meant for only one amount of buttons. Sorry for the novel!

Alright well I just tried to use 2 complete different templates. I created one brand new template from scratch, added the menu bar, gave it an ID of "band", and configured it to suite 10 buttons accordingly. Then I started off from scratch again with a starting html page with a different css style sheet and added the menu bar and gave it a different ID of "choir" but the settings of the two different bars still act as one set of settings! I dont know how to fix this problem. Please tell me what to post if anything will help you. Im guessing the solution is very simple but I have tried everything.
here is the code for the two different menu bars (one in each template)

Multiple copies of the same printer showing up in the print pull down menu...

Hi... I just recently installed an Epson XP-410 wireless printer so that we could print from our iPads and iPhones. I don't know if this is the correct forum to ask the question(s) in or not, but here goes...
1. There are multiple copies of the printer showing up in the drop down print menu when I go to select the printer. How do I know which is the correct printer to choose, or does it matter?
2. Can I get rid of the un-needed multiples? If so, how?
3. Also, I have been having an issue with printing to it when I switch between programs. When I tried printing to it from a simple text editor, it came up and said that there was a communications issue. I used to have a Brother network printer connected via Ethernet, and had no issues printing from any of my computers, but I couldn't print from the iPad with the Brother. So, we bought the Epson. Anyway, I had to restart the computer to re-establish the link between my computer and the printer. Didn't think I should have to do this since it is a network (wireless) printer. Any thoughts on that?
For a little more information, our main computer is an iMac (20-inch) running OS 10.7.
Thank you,
Jim

How to display multiple clocks in menu bar?

Is there an app that can display multiple clocks in different time zones, side by side, like the regular system clock?

Control-F2 "Move Focus to Menu Bar" only works occasionally

I don't want to use my trackpad too much due to a strain injury, hence I use the Control F2 "Move Focus to Menu Bar" a lot.
However this feature only works occasionally, it can work for hours and then suddenly stop working, sometimes I can fix in the Keyboard Shortcuts pref pane by unchecking and checking the "Move Focus to Menu Bar" checkbox, at other times it takes a restart of the system.
I've been a big Apple fan-boy since OS 9, and I always marvel at the cool features in OSX, this is the first time I have a Windows-esque experience with the OSX UI
I've also posted the above on the Apple Stackexchange, but nobody knows how to fix this.

I too prefer to use the keyboard over mouse/trackpad. Being a switcher from Windows the default keyboard shortcut to "Move focus to the menu bar" of ^F2 (ctrl+F2) was just too awkward a combination for me, and so I redefined the shortcut to be ⌘-space (cmd+space) which is much closer to what I'd been used to in Windows (Alt+space).
This has worked most of the time, from OSX 10.3 in 2004 right up to this weekend in 2011, using 10.6 whereas it now fails most of the time.
What has happened to cause this turnaround? In trying to discover what I'd done "wrong", I noticed that for the first time this weekend I'd run Voice Over (the OS X app). And probably by no coincidence, now, I can only successfully execute my keyboard shortcut to "Move focus to the menu bar" during the introductory announcement of Voice Over: "Welcome to Voice Over. Voice Over speaks descriptions of items on the screen and can be used to control the computer using only your keyboard. If you already know how to use Voice Over press the V key now. If you want to learn how to use Voice Over press the space key now". Hence, I have about twenty seconds of available time to use my ⌘-space (cmd+space) shortcut.
I can achieve a working shortcut by reverting away from my ⌘-space (cmd+space) shortcut, and restoring the default ^F2 (ctrl+F2), or some other different shortcut such as ⌘-, (cmd+comma).
So, I wonder, if my experience adds anything to the [already slightly stale] discussion?

"open with" menu suddenly showing multiple copies of all apps - HELP!!

Recently, the "open with" menu that pops up when I right click a file on my desktop has started showing multiple copies of all applications, and it's getting WORSE! It started out a few weeks ago doing this with one extra copy of only one application, but now there many, many copies of all apps - different numbers of copies depending on the app.
This is somehow related to the fact that I have an external G-Drive USB connected, which I am using as my backup drive. I copied everything onto this drive using SuperDuper. When the G-drive is connected, I get the error message below if I pick the "wrong" copy of an app. When I eject the G-Drive, I STILL see multiple apps, but get no error message, and any one of the app copies I select will open properly.
IMac G5, PPC, OSX 10.4.11
Thank you for any help!

I'm glad you found a solution, please mark your post with a green correct, so that others can see the solution as well.

How do I get multiple menu bars?

Hi Guys,
I was very excited when I found that OS X Mavericks had finally added a menu bar to each monitor. Excitement has now turned to dissapointment as I've found that disabling independent spaces for each monitor also disables the new multi menu bar feature. Why???????
For my particular setup and workflow, sharing spaces between my monitors works better for me. I don't want seperate spaces for each monitor, but I do want a menu bar on each screen. Why is Apple punishing me? Anyway, I'm hoping someone is aware of a simple hack for enabling multiple menu bars without enabling independant spaces for each monitor.
Thanks

Try one of these:
Try to repair the disk permissions:
* http://thexlab.com/faqs/repairprocess.html
Try to remove the Firefox plist file (org.mozilla.firefox.plist).
* http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20060606082246983 How .plist files become corrupt and troubleshooting the results
Go to "Library > Preferences" and remove the plist file for Firefox (org.mozilla.firefox.plist).
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" (Linux, Windows)
* If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
* If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

Video Player Control Bar hidden by OSX's Menu Bar

The iTunes video window's control bar is hidden under the menu bar. So I can't move the window or close it.
I can't find a way to reset this (or figure out how it happened).
Here's a link to a screenshot to help explain:

I played with the window size and eventually the window reset itself.

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.

Go to the genius bar. You've mucked up your MBP OS and it requires a hands on repair.

Controlling Menu Bars of Windows Applications like IE and Editor with LabVIEW 6

Hi everybody !
I'm trying to develop a vi (LabVIEW 6) which controls menu bars in
Windows Applications (IE, Editor, etc.) like "File-Save As..." or
"View-Source...". I'm pretty sure I've got to use the ActiveX
possibilities in LabVIEW, but I haven't been succesful. Any comments
will help.
Thanks

You can use Win32 API to simulate a key-press (e.g. ctrl-S for Save)
for IE or any window applications, as long as the application has
short cut for menu items, and active.
You can use external code (VC, VB, dephi, etc..) to build DLL, CIN, or
ActiveX, call them in LabVIEW.
I made "Send Keys.vi" in G Toolbox.
If the menu item doesn't has a shortcut, you can send a message (use
spy tool to find out) to the application.

When I'm using Safari, acasionally the menu bar just disappears. I'm running the latest version of Lion and the latest version of Safari. This is not a full screen app problem. I have multiple windows open. This happens all the time! Firefox is fine! ???

When I'm using Safari, ocasionally the menu bar just disappears. I'm running the latest version of Lion and the latest version of Safari. This is not a full screen app problem. I have multiple windows open. This happens all the time! Firefox is fine! What the ****? Please help!

Right, like I'm trying to say, THERE IS NO SAFARI MENU bar. Example: I have multiple applications open, I click on a Photoshop window, the correct menu or title bar or whatever changes. Every other application window I click on brings up the correct "whatever" bar. If I click on the desktop, the "Finder Bar" shows up.
Everythiing else, BUT SAFARI, works the same way since OS X came out. This is ridiculous.
I'm getting the vibe that Apple is trying to get rid of the finder.... this is the way wrong direction.
