Photoshop CS4 - Menu bar background is showing as black

Hi all,
I've been attempting to change the background colour of the menu bar of my photoshop, for some reason instead of being a white background with black text, i have the below.
The machine I am running has:
Photoshop CS4
Win 7 64 Bit
4GB of Ram
Any help would be really be appreciated, thank you for you time,
Kris

If you have not set an oddball theme on the desktop (which Photoshop mostly ignores), it could be that you have a video driver glitch.
I think the first thing I'd try is this: Right-click on the open desktop, choose Personalize, then save your current theme. Now select the Windows 7 theme, just to make sure everything's set in a known way.
Does the problem persist?
If so, then it's likely a video driver update will help... Visit the web page of the maker of your video card, locate the latest driver version for your hardware and version of Windows, download, and install.

Menu bar does not show on screen?

Menu bar does not show on screen.

I'll assume your profile is wrong (10.4.7?) and you are using Lion in full screen mode. If so click the double arrows in the menu bar which should appeare if you mouse into the menu bar area.
If that isn't the case then are you zoomed in? Contol + fingler drag on mouse (or scroll wheel) zooms in or out (see Mouse preferences, Screen Zoom, look at the little movie).

Photoshop CS4 Menu toolbar display bug and fullscreen slowness...

http://img384.imageshack.us/img384/8202/menutoolsbugee3.gif
I'm having a display bug with the menu toolbar in Photoshop CS4 Extended. Notice the area of tools is gone and replaced by random pixels? This happens whenever I enter the fullscreen mode that hides the interface. And when I exit that fullscreen mode, that bug appears and doesn't fix itself until I restart Photoshop. Can this be fixed?
Image view rotation also happens much slower than normal in that fullscreen mode when interface is hidden. But performs normally after I bring back the interface.
I'm on WinXP, Athlon 64 4000+, 3GB ram, GeForce 6800 GT video card [driver 169.21]. I'm not sure if this is a video driver bug or CS4 bug.

Yeah, Dave, I can understand how that can happen. I've seen that sort of weirdness when I've seriously overtaxed my hardware.
 
 Had way too much running all at once yesterday, switched over to Firefox, and clicking on folders in the Bookmarks bar, I had 4 bookmark/folder menus dropped simultaneously.
 
 I managed to grab a screenshot with 2 of them showing, but man! You shoulda seen it with 4!
 
 I ESC'ed out, quit GarageBand (had a song project of several hundred MB going) and all was fixed.

PS CS4 menu bar sometimes disappears (parts of it)

Now and then, part of my menu bar disappears - the section just to the right of "help" - I think the first icon for this particular bar is to open Bridge. I've included a screen shot of my issue - notice that area seems to show my desktop (or whatever is open behind PS). I think this has something to do with my graphics card. I have a nVidia GEForce 9500 GT (driver version 6.14.11.9107 from 9/27/09). The driver is current. When this issue comes up, I have to literally reboot for that secion of the menu bar to reappear. Simply logging off and back on doesn't do it. When this menu bar section "does" appear, when I mouse over the icons, the "roll over" icon is blank - or just solid grey. I don't think that is how it's supposed to look.
I've also had trouble (recently and in the near past) with my "show grid" setting (reference: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/493932?tstart=0). For example, I would create a document 72px x 72px @ 72ppi - make my grid visible (grid settings are set to show 1 grid line every 1px & 1 subdivision). When zooming into any corner of the image, I could see the grid lines were offset (example images on my reference post) - this is not to be confused with the pixel grid. I'm wondering if these issues are related to each other and/or because of my graphics card. The grid line offset issue was previously fixed by deleting my preferences, but sine this is happening again, my guess is something is causing the "grid" to show improperly. I've tested with and without GPU enhancements enabled in PS preferences. I just can't find a common thread in which causes these issues.
If I still have your attention, I would like to add an "off topic" issue (maybe somoene reading this can help on the other issue too). In reference to http://forums.adobe.com/thread/508982?tstart=0, no one has really been able to answer this or confirm/deny they get the same results. This has to do with viewing document size, and the unit of measurement seems to get stuck on cm (I want it to remain on inches like it always did with CS3) - maybe I should go back to CS3. Whenever I have rulers set to pixels, the document size locks to cm. The only way I can see inches in document size is if my rulers are set to inches. To me, it makes sense to have rulers set to pixels (for many reasons), but when it comes time to print, change canvas size, etc., I want to see the document size in inches. I don't know if this is normal, but when I go to create a new document, in the preset drop down list for "default photoshop size", it's unit is cm. Could that have something to do with my cm issue? I'm already made sure my regional settings are US, and unit settings are set according to attached image (unitSettings.jpg).
At this point, I'm going mad because these little bity querks just drive me up the wall to the point I can't get anything done because I'm always troublshooting.If anyone can shed some light on any/all of these topics, you would save me from slicing a wrist or two Thanks...

Are you having rendering issues with other software or just with Adobe PS CS4?
At the moment, I'm not really using any other programs which would call for any rendering. Videos seem to play fine, so other than PS, I'm not using any other programs.
Did you update CS4 to 11.0.1?
I just did, so I guess I have to play the waiting game now. The roll over issue I mentioned before is still giving me just a gray square roll over state. I don't know what (if anything) is supposed to show on roll over. What do you see when you roll over any of those buttons?
Also you might want to update Directx. I know it has nothing to do with
opengl but some posters in the past have reported that some things got
better.
I currently have version
When I tried to update at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=2da43d38-db71-4c1b -bc6a-9b6652cd92a3, and install, I would get this error Even though I meet the requirements for this update, something is not letting me. I even made sure my Cryptographic Services was enabled and started. When opening PS, there were times I would get an error something to the effect that PS had a problem with the display driver so something or another was disabled (which I'm thinking it was just not allowing open GL drawing (which was usually around the time I would notice that menu bar section I posted about previously).
Also sometimes newer video card drivers are not the best drivers for a
given application. Have you went back to a set of older drivers to see
if that may cure the problem?
I've rolled back my graphics driver. Will have to wait and see if that solved anything.
As for
the ruler problem some people, from what I have read, have the same or
simular issue. There is a recent thread about 2 or 3 days ago that had
a ruler problem and I don't think it was fixed.
The recent thread was probably mine. I didn't mean to double post about that topic, but sometimes when just one person responds (and usually doesn't have anything helpful to say), others will just pass up that post. This issue is maddening, so maybe one day it will fix itself or I will move on.
Thanks for your time, I will post back if anything else goes wrong - I mean "when" something else goes wrong.

Spry Menu Bar Submenus Not Showing

SpryMenuBar.js
This file handles the JavaScript for Spry Menu Bar. You should have no need
to edit this file. Some highlights of the MenuBar object is that timers are
used to keep submenus from showing up until the user has hovered over the parent
menu item for some time, as well as a timer for when they leave a submenu to keep
showing that submenu until the timer fires.

Spry Horizontal menu bar borders not showing in IE6/IE 7 but ok in Mozilla!

I am hoping someone can help me! I have built a spry menu
with CS 3 and have altered the CSS file to customise colours etc.
the problem I am encountering is that I have specified white
borders around the menus items and sub menus which look perfectly
fine in Mozilla Firefox but when I check IE 6 & 7 the borders
have disappeared! I am hoping someone you may have a workaround or
any reason this might happen.

I am having the same problems in IE7. I'm using the latest
version of everything (Spry 1.6.1 and javascript file version 0.12)
and at first I was having the problem on my drop down menus
appearing horizontal with all the correct styles but when I changed
the rule ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul to position: relative; the drop
downs appear vertical now but I have no beige border around the
whole ul anymore and I'm getting white space inbetween list items.

so if anyone has any advice I'd much appreciate it. Also i'm
using 1px width on my borders no decimals.

Photoshop Elements Menu Bar Troublehsooting

Hey everyone, first time poster here. I have a question concerning a recurring problem that I'm having with Photoshop Elements 4.0's Menu Bar (File, Edit, etc.) I bought Elements 4.0 new in 2005 and have used it often since without upgrading because it still does what I need it to do for graphic design and photo restoration projects, but often, Elements' Menu Bar will lock up after increasingly shorter sessions of use. I can still use photo editing functions in the fields on the left & right, but the Menu Bar's buttons will flicker and not open when I click on them. When this happens, Elements won't close without Task Manager, and I can't use certain keyboard shortcuts on open projects (i.e. I can copy work suing Ctrl + C but I can't save it in Elements using Ctrl + S.) An unistallation and re-installation does solve the problem at first, but the frozen/flickering Menu Bar does return eventually
I don't want to buy a whole new version of Photoshop if I don't have to, so I was wondering if this was a recurring or fixable problem that I can correct, or is this a sign that I should get Elements 11 or 12? I'm running an HP Touchsmart 300 computer with Windows 7, and it flawlessly runs Elements 4.0 despite it's age aside from the aforementioned problem. This has been a recurring issue for over a year, but only now is it getting to a frequency rate where I can't move around it easily. I can provide other information if it's at all helpful, and thanks for any advance assistance!

First, thank you lundberg2 for moving this to the right forum, I didn't know that Elements had a separate forum.
I did delete the preference file for Elements 4.0, though not the way you gave because the Alt+Ctrl+Shift command didn't work on this version. I did it manually by deleting the Adobe Photoshop Elements 4 Prefs.psp file located in AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Photoshop Elements/4.0/Editor. This did help temporarily, but the problem returned after steady use today on restoring old family photos. Menu Bar buttons still just highlight and flicker, work can't be saved directly, and Elements won't close. I did notice that sometimes, changing the active tool on the left would get the Menu Bar selections open, but not all worked as normal, and the problem returned if I changed tools. Is there another possible fix/remedy that I could try?

Menu bar icons not showing up at retina resolution

I've been experiencing this for a while now. Some menu bar icons will now show up at retina resolution on my Macbook Pro Retina.
Here's a screenshot to show what I mean: http://d.pr/i/IUMM
Only Twitter and Notification center are in retina resolution. If I relaunch them, some apps will show the icon at retina resolution (see here: http://d.pr/i/uMDu )
Anyone have any idea what causes this or if it's been reported already?
I'm on a 2012 MBPr 15" running OSX 10.9

Have you solved this yet? Perhaps trashing the preference file for the menubar would solve this? Go to the preferences folder-- /Library/Preferences --and trash this file:
com.apple.systemuiserver.plist

Icons in menu bar disappear and show up again

All icons in my icon bar in the upper right corner disappear every other second and start to show up again one after each other.
I have no clue how to stop this annoying behavior. I did not do anything special.
Does anybody have any idea?
THX

Go to ~(Home)/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist and delete that file then log out and back in or restart. Your menu bar should return to default.
This may solve it, or the problem may actually be in the .plist of the application you used. Go through your preferences and see if any name without "com.apple..." rings a bell. Don't delete it just drag it to the desktop and log out and back in or restart.
Let us know.

Spry Horizontal Menu Bar background image IE8 not visible.

I have a slight problem with a horizontal menu bar that I have placed on my site and am hoping someone can help me. It views fine in Firefox, however in IE8 the top menu background image is white instead of the image I specified. Firefox image is below.
Below is IE8 image lacking top menu background:
I am a novice and this is driving me nuts. How can something view fine in Firefox and loose the image in IE explorer? I must have a code incorrect, I know it. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

At the bottom of SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css, you will find

Change the background colour to transparent and all is well.

Spry widget menu bar background image help

Does anyone know of a good tutorial for putting a background image behind the whole menu bar, not just each button, and a tutorial for putting images behind each button.
Also, does anyone have a good tutorial on creating some sort of gallery, with thumbnails, in dreamweaver.
Thank you, using cs4

You can start here for your spry menu.
http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Spry/SDG/index.html
You can also use a background image in the container that you have your SM in. You can use in in conjuction with, or in place of images for the menu.
For the gallery, I would look at third party products.

Spry Horizontal Menu Bar background image

Hello,
I am trying to insert a .gif file into the background of the
spry menu bar items, I believe the default was grey.
I changed it to dark grey and it worked fine but then I
decided it would look better with an image in it.
Therefore I created a .gif image that fit the menu and
inserted it into the css page for the spry menu.
However, this creates the drop down (sub) menus to be
transparent. This does not happen when I change the background back
to just a solid color. Is there a way around this?
The code that I entered was something like this:
.(other style codes)
background-color="#EC0000" url="images/image09" repeat-x;
thanx

At the bottom of SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css, you will find
@media screen, projection
ul.MenuBarHorizontal li.MenuBarItemIE
display: inline;

background-color: #FFF;
Change the background colour to transparent and all is well.

Question on spry vertical menu bar backgrounds

I have a spry vertical menu bar. The menu branches off to 3 or 4 levels in some cases. When you mouse over the menu structure the menu path that you have selected turns a different color. I acheived this by giving
ul.MenuBarVertical a.MenuBarItemHover, ul.MenuBarVertical a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover, ul.MenuBarVertical a.MenuBarSubmenuVisible
a different text color and also a different background color using CSS. The thing I want to acheive now is to somehow make listings within my menu structure that are clickable links a slightly different color. This is to signal that a menu selection that is currently being hovered over is indeed clickable (and linked to another page). For example, most of my clickable menu listings are at the end of a menu branches. That is to say the menu listing at the 1st and 2nd level are not clickable (linked to another page) but the listing that falls at the end of the menu branch is clickable.
How can I make the menu listings that link to other pages a different color then the other menu listings that do not link anywhere but are instead just the preceding struture to get you to the end of the menu structure?
Currently menu listings which merely branches off and do not link to a clickable page have a reference of "#" as shown below.
<li><a href="#">Menu_1</a>
This "#" was put there by Dreamweaver so I just followed the pattern. Clickable menu listings reference another HTML page as you would expect.

Nancy,
Thanks for the reply (it helped me know how to approach it). It looks like editing
ul.MenuBarVertical a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover
will give me the behavior I was looking for. I don't know if that is what I want to do now that I look at it though. Using different colored backgrounds when hovering over links seems to contrast too much (even though some are clickable and others are not). Perhaps I didn't have the right color choice.
Instead I thought about emphasizing links that are clickable (with some type of visual variation) as opposed to making the hovering background color path to those clickable links different. I experimented with placing a 1 inch border around links in the menu that can be clicked but I am not sure if I like it or not.
I am using a background color of #7D120C for the hover. Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

Photoshop Elements Menu Bar hidden

I notice with Photoshop Elements that on some installs the full menu of 'File', 'Edit', 'Find', 'View', 'Window' and 'Help' appears at the top of the screen, yet on other installs only a Chevron '>>' appears that you have to click onto to reveal the menu options. How do I set up the program so that the full list of options appears in the Menu Bar at the top of the screen?
best regards,
James

HT1766 Menu bar is not showing up in iTunes on my iPad

Trying to sync iTunes in order to update to iOS 5, but iTunes has no menu bar showing to allow me to do any thing. Have googled this and found no solution. Help would be appreciated!

You update within iTunes on your computer if you are running any iOS under 5.0. I don't know what you expect to see, but there is no menu bar in iTunes on the iPad for updating.
You have to connect your iPad to your computer, launch iTunes, select the iPad on the left side under devices, click on the Summary tab in the iTunes window on the right, and click on the Check for Update button.
You can read this for the details.
