My mac isn't diplaying the doc bar when I log in, what should I do?

I log in to my macbook air, and when I do, it doesn't display my correct background that I set for it, and it displays the beginning background that apple gives you when first starting with the mac; and the main issue is my dock bar isn't showing up, I've already gone through preferences and tried to change the view of the dock bar but still, nothing happens. What's wrong with my mac. How can I fix it. Or can I fix it at all.

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.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
Step 1
Enter the name of the crashed application (Dock) or process in the Filter text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor 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 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 or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

    are you backing up files, or doing a Time machine backup, either way, the Time machine will STOP when finished and show "last backup at XXXXXX"  meaning its done...... OR if when transferring files, it will show a progress bar on your desktop and vanish when files are copied.
    Open up the Hitachi drive (your G drive is made by Hitachi, and the best made by the way).....and see if the files are there.
    a MORE VISUAL way is to open the hard drive file, and drag and drop files INTO the Gdrive and you can see them visually be copied there as you do it.
    To see your HD on your desktop GOTO  FINDER......PREFERENCES....then GENERAL TAB.........check the box marked HARD DRIVES.........then your Gdrive will appear on your desktop........open it from there,  and DRAG and drop files from anywhere INTO the Gdrive....... easy visual way to see the files being copied into the Gdrive.

  • TS3276 Mail shows in the doc, but when clicked or doubled clicked does not open on the desktop, HELP !

    Mail shows in the doc, but when clicked or doubled clicked does not open on the desktop, HELP !

    Try restarting your Mac.
    Open Termimal (Applications/Utilities/Terminal)Try entering this command: killall Dock, and then hit enter
    Try dragging the Mail icon out of the dock, then let it disappear in a puff of smoke. Then from Applications/Mail try dragging the Mail icon back into the dock, and see if it works.
    Does Mail open otherwise? Like if you try opening it from your Applications folder?if it doesn't:
    Boot into your recovery partition (restart, hold down ⌘R until you see the Apple logo), and use Disk Utility to repair your hard drive. Repair permissions too while you're there. OS X: About OS X Recovery
    if that doesn't work: reinstall Mavericks over your current installation.

  • I want the cursor to be in the address bar when creating a new window; it works for new tabs and in a new private window, but not in safe mode.

    I have tried following the advice offered in the few different threads I have found on this but nothing fixes it. I want the cursor to be in the address bar when I open a new window and/or when firefox opens without restoring a previous session. I fixed the issue for new tabs via about:config but this doesn't work for new windows. I tried safe mode and the problem persists. In new private windows the cursor is in the address bar.

    The search box in about:home steals the cursor. Changing your home page to something else will cause the cursor to start in the address bar for new windows.

  • Creating a "more" button on the menu bar when the menus are more

    Hi,
    I wanted to create a functionality similar to that we can see in eclipse editor. when we open files more than a number, only some of the pages are visible on the editor. we can access the rest from the button which shows the names of files. I am doing a web app which contains many menus. sometimes it may be more than a page can contain.in such cases the page shows a scroll bar. i need to avoid the scroll bar and keep a button towards the right end of the tool bar; when the user clicks on the button, the rest of the menus should be shown there.is there anyways to implement this?
    i have another problem: how can i hilight the currently selected menu? can i do it using java code and a css class?
    Thanks,

Well, count the items and display the button/menu when there are more than which fits on screen.

    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.

  • Is there any way to hide or remove the scroll bars when programming?

    I wish the vi which builded by app builder can display a interface without the scroll bars even before it runs. Thank you very much!

    As was answered here, you can only hide the scoll bars when the VI is running. If you need to enter data or set options before running, then you should redesign the application with a "Go" button or a pop-up and not rely on the user to press the run arrow. Putting the controls inside a while loop would be sufficient and should be easy to do. It's that or live with visible scroll bars.

  • I have my settings to not fill in the URL bar when I type. Yet, when I type something, it's giving me a drop down of sites that match as I type. Why? And how do I get it to stop? It's really annoying.

    Example: If I'm typing in www.mozilla.com, when I get to www.mo, it drops down a list of all the sites I've previously gone to that start with that.

    Quote: ''I have my settings to not fill in the URL bar when I type''<br />
    Do you have an extension to make that setting or did you change the pref [http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.urlbar.maxRichResults browser.urlbar.maxRichResults] on the about:config page to 0 or -1?
    In the Firefox 3.0.x versions you are limited about what to do with the location bar.
    * Old Location Bar: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/7637
    If you update to Firefox 3.5.x or 3.6.x then you have more options for the location bar behavior.<br />

  • When typing in a website after opening in a tab, the cursor focuses to the address bar and makes logging to things difficult, how do I change this?

    As stated in the question on any website I open regardless of whether it is a new tab or just a new destination, the cursor focuses on the address bar and makes logging in to sites very infuriating. Any help is much appreciated.

    Thanks for the help, it didn't help with this particular problem. I figured it out though, I had an issue with the AVG safe search. I had to just delete the file in the program files x86.

    Hello. I have an Ipad 3 and I have installed the facebook app for ipad. Though I'm online, I appear offline to my friends. And, there is no chat bar when I log in via safari! Please Help!

    I believe the Facebook App requires (or at least it did in the past) the screen to be rotated to Landscape to access/enable chat functions/enable online status (I believe at the bottom-right of the screen). You need to set your online status to available (or whatever their terminology is) to have other people see your online status and availability to chat.

    I tried to update the software overnight, and it was still in the beginning stages of the progress bar when I woke up.  When I restarted the process I have to restore the phone, its again stuck in the beginning of the process. Does anyone know how long this should take?  The beginning sections seemed to fly by.

    Hi NWL1,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone won't update and is stuck. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • I registered my new iPhone 5s to my usual Apple ID, however it isn't showing in my devices when I log in. I tried to register it by adding a new device, but it tells me it's already registered to a different Apple ID. I'm really not sure how to fix this.

    I registered my new iPhone 5s to my usual Apple ID, however it isn't showing in my devices when I log in. I tried to register it by adding a new device, but it tells me it's already registered to a different Apple ID. I'm really not sure how to fix this. I only have the one Apple ID and the phone is brand new, purchased directly from Apple.
    When I check on the phone itself (iCloud and App Store settings) the Apple ID is correct. I'm not sure where else to check.
    Whilst setting up the phone, it prompted me to register, which I did. Then when connecting to my laptop through iTunes it prompted me again so I registered again. I even got a confirmation email to the email address associated with my Apple ID that the registration was successful.
    How can I add my iPhone 5s to the list of devices on the correct Apple ID?
    Thanks in advance for any advice.
