My menu dropdown will not open, why not?

Thank you all for your support. I am not very good at the vocabulary of computing. It seems my firefox has changed? I have the new toolbar on the left with the ability to click the star and add to my bookmarks. I have the download arrow and the house (home) button, but my 3 bar menu will not open. I have Windows 8.1 on a ASUS laptop with Firefox 31?
I have reset Firefox? I don't understand 'safe' mode. But, the problem still stays. I want to be able to customize Firefox from the dropdown menu button.
Thanks Ollie

this is a simple answer .... press the alt key and it pops up (press the alt key when you need it)
the change is to make the working part of the browser larger and so it automatically conceals itself... that can be changed by selecting View > menu tool bar

  • Srpy menu bar will not display

    Was working away on modifying a spry menu bar when all of a
    sudden the menu bar will not display. Tried creating a new page and
    inserting the menu bar and still will not display. Won't even
    display in previous pages created.
    Anybody have any ideas?
    Thanks

    The following code calls the MenuBar widget into your
    document, but the widget will not be found, if the code that I
    provided you is not properly formatted.
    <script type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    var MenuBar1 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar("MenuBar1",
    {imgDown:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif",
    imgRight:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif"});
    //-->
    </script>
    When I insert a SPRY widget into my document the Javascript
    and CSS files that construct and determine the appearance of the
    widget are automatically placed into a folder called SpryAssets. My
    document is housed in a different folder. Thus, I must exit the
    folder in which my document is contained before entering the
    SpryAssets folder. When I read your href attribute it appears that
    your SpryAsset folder and your document are located in the same
    directory folder. If this is true, then I do not understand why
    your widget does not appear.
    I can offer two additional suggestions, and then my knowledge
    of what might be wrong is exhausted:
    1) If possible insert the widget again using a previous
    version of your document in which the widget has not already been
    inserted.
    2) Always make sure that your document has been saved at
    least once before inserting a SPRY object. This will insure that
    everything is properly linked when the widget is inserted.
    In the meantime, maybe someone more knowledgeable than I will
    be able to help.

  • My clock in the menu bar will not keep time.

    My clock in the menu bar will not keep time.
    However, if I click on it and open Date & Time and do nothing more, it adjusts to the current time but still doesn't work as the seconds aren't advancing. I close Date & Time but the clock stays highlighted/selectted, which is also strange.
    Any suggestions as to how to get my clock running again?

    Hi Peter,
    Not certain, but I'd try this...
    You've probably got a couple of corrupt preference files.
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    /Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences/ com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
    /Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.systemuiserver.xxx.plist
    where 'xxx' is a 12 digit (hexadecimal) numeric string.
    This will reset your Menu Bar to the default, you'll need to go through System Preferences to reset the ones you need. (If they are already checked, uncheck them first and then recheck them).
    reboot

  • My 'Menu' button will not work. How can I fix this?

    The menu button will not work.
    Is there anything I can do myself to fix this problem?
    It works occasionally, but mostly does not work.
    Thanks

    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

  • Firefox 4: the drop down menus in the top menu bar will not appear in Google pages.

    ''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/808729''
    Firefox 4: the drop down menus in the top menu bar will not appear in Google pages. For example, when I click "more" it is like clicking a dead link. Nothing happens. When I click the "tools" icon or my email address to log out, same thing.

    Could you do the following please.
    In the location bar at the top, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter
    In the filter at the top, copy/paste the following setting:
    '''browser.urlbar.maxRichResults'''
    If the figure on the right is a single number, or a minus figure i.e. '''-1''', right click it, choose '''Modify''', remove the current setting and replace it with the figure "'''12'''".
    Then close Firefox and restart it again.
    I went to Google Maps, but as you can see from the screenshot, directions appear to be working.
    You could also try creating a new Profile. See [[Managing profiles]]

  • Itunes will not open on my computer the icon on desktop  has changed to a white foldertype icon. itunes is listed in programmes on my start menu but will not launch either

    please help
    itunes will not open on my computer the icon on my desktop has changed to a white folder and it is still listed in start programmes but will not launch i am concerned about losing all my downloads

    You music etc should not be affected by problems with the iTunes program, nevertheless it is always a good idea to backup your data.
    You haven't said if there was any error message when you tried to start iTunes. If  there was one please give it in full.
    Also check to see if QuickTime works, iTunes can not work without it. If QuickTime doesn't work, it has to be fixed before worrying about iTunes.
    Then restart your PC and open your Task manger and select the Processes tab.
    Try to start iTunes, does iTunes.exe appear on the processes tab? If so does it disappear again or remain although the programs does not open?

  • Reports run from "view" menu, but will not run when scheduled.

    Post Author: Jonathan Lackman
    CA Forum: General
    Recently completed SP6 for CE10 and CR10. Now none of the reports will run from the User Launchpad Crystal Enterprise login interface. Normally, reports are selected, paramaters set, and the report is "scheduled". This fails with the error "Information is needed before this report can be processed.". I know this error usually indicates incorrect parameters set. However, if I select the same report, and then click on "view", and select the exact same parameters, the report will run fine.
    It seems there is some issue with scheduling that is causing all reports to fail. There is nothing else unusual on the machine that I can see; no errors, not overworked, no event log issues, all services are started.
    I'd like to hear any suggestions on this, as we will likely have to engage a paid support technician if I can't get this resolved.

    Apologies, I was looking at the wrong schematic for the Apple TV 1. There isn't a button. So lets try this instead...
    Remove the power cord and wait 20 seconds.
    Plug it back in and let it boot (Give it 10 minutes, it's being tempremental)
    Try and navigate to the the advanced menu and do a factory restore
    If that doesn't work then if you are using the white remote hold down the menu button for six seconds and release this should bring up a hidden menu which will allow you to access the advanced configuration settings.
    Again, if this fails there isn't much to do than tap it with a hammer to see if that fixes it (hard to believe how many times that actually works. (No responsibility taken if it breaks!, but at least you'd have a good reason to buy Apple TV 3)

  • My Apple TV 1st gen is stuck in the restore menu and will not reboot.

    Hi, my Apple TV froze last night and when I rebooted it it will not let me restart or reboot to factory settings, can any one offer any advice.  Cheers.

    AppleTV1 had a recovery hard drive partition that could restore to the shipping software version.
    It sounds as though there has been some corruption of the hard drive software preventing access to the necessary settings.  There is no real easy fix for this, and it may be a sign of impending drive/hardware failure.
    If he had another AppleTV he could potentially try to clone the drive of a good one onto a bad one but that would generally involve dismantling when the one unit does not respond. I'm not aware that Apple would offer any kind of repair option here.

  • KDE Menu Editor will not save.

    Menu changes could not be saved because of the following problem:
    Could not write to /home/soylent/.config/menus/applications-kmenuedit.menu
    The file doesn't exist, and creating it does not solve the problem, so it seems to me that KDE is looking to save the wrong file for some reason, because for programs that have scripts for entering into the menu, they have no problem doing this.  So, how do I make KDE point to the correct menu file?  What is the correct menu file?

    Hey, thanks a ton for helping.  I think you're right:
    I wasn't able to run it as root either, so I put in:
    xhost +localhost
    ls -l
    -rw-r--r--  1 root root 121
    and it run as root.  I don't know what 'xhost +localhost' does.  Ha, ha, dumb to issue a command and not know what it does. 
    I assume the whole problem was there NO permissions for it.  Now I need to know what permissions it needs/best way to set them.

  • Adobe Bridge CC (64 bit) shows in my Start menu but will not open.

    Adobe Bridge CC (64 bit) showed installed on my Start menu and on the apps CC section.
    I cannot open Bridge from either the Start Menu or the File Menu on CC PS CS6.
    I'm on Windows 7, 64 Bit.
    I also can no longer use Print Maintenance functions on my non CC PS CS5 version.

    Make sure you do not have a previous version of Bridge running in the background.  Only one version can run at a time.
    Open Task Mangaer and click on processes tab.  Look for and close and bridge.exe.

    Hello Riley,
    Apple Menu Bar Icons Gone...
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions.
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    You've probably got a couple of corrupt preference files.
    Move these files to the Desktop for now...
    /Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    /Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences>com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
    /Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences/ByHost>com.apple.systemuiserver.xxx.plist
    where 'xxx' is a 12 digit (hexadecimal) numeric string.
    Reboot.
    This will reset your Menu Bar to the default, you'll need to go through System Preferences to reset the ones you need. (If they are already checked, uncheck them first and then recheck them).

  • The error, "Restart Required. Lightroom has encountered a problem with its menus. Some menu commands will not work until Lightroom has been restarted" appears in Lightroom.

    I updated to 5.7 a few days ago and I just now encountered this problem while importing some photos. Is this a common problem?

    Hey Guy's, Thank you for the recommendations to fix his problem and I did restart my browser, etc.. and all was corrected. But, I have been with Lightroom for a while, starting with LR3. I can not remember having one problem, except for my errors, until I started with LR5 and I have some kind of problem hourly! I do not have many presets or plug-ins so I don't think that was really a problem. It crashes constantly, I can edit 4-6 photos and then it starts slowing down and I have to do a restart. It does, on occasion, jump around from the develop controls and even changes modes, crashes and sometimes I just wait it out and it will open in the print mode or slideshow! I find photos all over my computer that it sent on its own. I did download and check for malware and other viruses and none were found so I am still troubleshooting everything from my fairly new computer and everything else but I always think when they come out with a newer version to download, it will correct my problems but they only get worse.

  • Drop down menu button will not change color

    I have built a 6 button  rollover dropdown menu bar in Flash CS4
    On five of the dropdown menus I can get the buttons to change color
    On the fifth dropdown I can see the button, but when rolled over I can't get the color to change.
    I have moved the buttons on the fifth drop down to the first drop down button and they work perfectly.
    Is this a bug in Flash CS4 or......
    thank you
    Sb!

    I appreciate your reply but those arrows were not the ones I was trying to describe. In the same box where you would type your web address on the far right is a small star and then next to it an arrow pointing down. If you click on this arrow, it normally drops down a list of the websites you commonly use. Or, if you are on a website ordering something, there might be a similar arrow that you need to select in order to choose which shipping you might want such as ground, next day air, etc., these are the kinds of arrows that are not working correctly now. Any ideas on these? Thanks for trying to help me.

  • The menu bar will not show up.

    I accidentally hid the menu bar (which has file, view etc. on it) and i do not know how to get it back. Please help me.
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice
    == Today

    Press the Alt key, this will temporarily display the menu bar.
    You can then make it permanently display the menu bar by selecting the View menu option, then Toolbars, and finally Menu bar
