Safari unable to view menu bar in full screen mode

Been using Lion for a while now and everything seems fine, except for some reason when Safar is in full screen mode and I move the mouse up to the toolbar, the file menu and shortcuts bar doesn't appear now. It worked yesterday... now it won't. I quit safari completely, opened it back up and it still wont. Next will be a reboot...

Thanks, I rebooted and it came good, but if it happens again i'll try that

  • Recover missing menu bar in full screen mode?

    Hi All!
    I have recently installed Lion and am playing around with full-screen mode. As you perhaps are aware, the menu bar at the top of the screen disappears in full-screen mode, but can be popped back into view by raising the cursor to the top fo the screen.
    I would like to have the menu bar at the top of my full-screen apps at all times, because I have it sprinkled with a variety of useful information (time, stock ticker, dropbox status, etc.
    I haven't been able to find any trigger in System Preferences or in specific app preferences that will let me do this. I realize that I could simply maximize windows, etc. -- in other words, I know there are workarounds.
    But I would like a genuine solution that would permit me to use full-screen mode while retaining an omnipresent menu bar.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks!
    Greg

  • Keyboard access to PS CS6 Menu Bar in  Full Screen Mode (Windows)

    I'm looking to find a way to access Photoshop Menus in Full Screen Mode by  pressing the Alt+(any of the underlined Menu Keys).
    The alternative I've been using is pressing the Tab key to show the Menu and Panels, or simply toggling Screen Modes (f  key or Shift+f) but that negates the purpose of Full Screen Mode.  I followed the instructions on this post to no avail:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/jkost/2012/09/accessing-the-menu-bar-via-a-keyboard-shortcut-in-pho toshop-cs6.html#comments
    I really enjoy everything else about my upgrade to CS6 except for this lacking feature found in most of the earlier versions.  I hope there's an answer to this one, as my keyboard hand is all ready over cluttered with Custom Keyboard Shortcuts that use the Ctrl Key.
    Thanks!

    I am unable to show up the photo tour bar in full screen mode>
    What should I do to get the photo tour bar on the top of my full screen mode?
    Camera Canon 40D.

    Hi 153957,
    Thanks for the response.
    I could see the film strip on the bottom ok in Browser plus viewer mode.
    When I go to viewer screen the full screen mode and I could not see the Photo tool bar-sorry I spelt it "Tour" in my question.
    Now I realised that the Photo Tool bar only appear when I move the cursor to the top of the screen.
    However in full screen mode I am unable to bring my inspector! Is that possible?

  • Safari has stopped allowing me to enter full screen mode. Why?

    Safari will not allow me to enter full screen mode. This is a new occurrence as it has always worked before. When I either click on the two arrows on the top right of the browser or go to View > Enter Full Screen the browser makes a sound and remains the same. How do I fix this problem? And why would this have happened in the first place? Thank you.

    First try resetting Safari by clicking "Safari", then "Reset Safari..." in third section. Make sure everything is checked except for saved passwords, auto fill or history/top sites for they are unnecessary. If this doesn't work, try emptying the cache by clicking "Safari", "Empty Cache...", then click ok.

  • Blank space above address bar in full screen mode on Mac

    Hi.
    Blank space appears above address bar in full screen mode when I bookmark specific web page for the first time after FF start. Only way to hide this space is View->Toolbars->Customize->Done. But it appears each time after FF restarts. Disabling all addons does not help. This problem disappears only in FF safe mode.
    Thanks,
    Roman

    Hi romansobko, try to [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/advanced-settings-browsing-network-updates-encryption#w_browsing disable hardware acceleration] and check it again(in safe mode hardware acceleration is disable).

  • Why won't the font formatting options appear in the format bar in full screen mode?

    The font formatting options (bold, italic, and underline, and left, center, right, and justified) do NOT appear in the format bar in full screen mode.
    I'm running version 2.2 of iBooks Author and 10.10 of the OS X.
    I've included screenshots bellow.

    I think you need to ask Apple to fix that

  • Cursor Disappears After I Return From VIewing Web Video In Full Screen Mode

    After I view a video from a web site in full screen mode using Safari v6.0.1 or Firefox v15.0.1, I escape to normal screen mode. When I then try to move the cursor using the built-in trackpad, I am unable to see the cursor anywhere on the screen. I do, however, see some artifacts of the cursor's movement in the text contained in the window and in the text of the menu bar as the cursor passes them.
    What can I do to eliminate this "inconvenience"?

  • How can I get Safari to default to NOT be in full screen mode?

    I have looked in Preferences but don't see any such option.  I know that once I am in a session that I can go to View->Exit Full Screen, but I want the default when I open a session to not be full screen.  Would appreciate any and all help.

    Quit Safari while holding down the option key. Relaunch. Your home page, or an empty window, should open, depending on your preferences.
    If in full-screen mode, exit. If not in full-screen mode, enter. Quit and relaunch without holding any keys. You should get the same window in the same state as when you quit. Does that happen?

  • Creative Cloud menu and OSX Full screen mode

    I recently uninstalled CS6 and installed the Creative Cloud version of all the Adobe CS apps on my computer the other day.  So far, I like it, and that part if things is working well.
    However, there is this annoying behaviour that I would like to fix if I could...
    On a Mac it's possible to put an application into full screen mode and then use a swipe gesture to move between fullscreen apps.  Whenever I do that, and then swipe back to the desktop, the Creative Cloud menu insists on dropping down on the main desktop screen... Every. Single. Time. 
    I then have to click the CC menu bar icon to get rid of it. Again, Every. Single. Time.
    Because I use fullscreen gestures a lot, this continual dropdown of the CC menu is starting to get REALLY annoying. 
    Anyone come across this before? Do you know how to stop it doing it?

    Jaredtorres the original issue disucssed in this discussion was addressed on 7/15/13.  You can find the current release notes listed at Creative Cloud app for desktop | Release Notes - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/release-note/cc-release-notes.html.  By default, after updating, the Creative Cloud Desktop application will also be in Window mode.

  • Mobile Safari Crash when using an iFrame in Full Screen mode (Icon launch)

    Platform: iPad 2/3/mini iOS 8.1 (Other versions seem to show the same behavior)
    The Problem:
    I am making an html5 app that is running in full screen mode by adding it to the homescreen and using the <meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes"> tag to hide Safari.
    When altering the source of an iFrame to an asset (mov, mp3, etc), Safari in turn will crash ONLY when in full screen mode. If I am browsing my app out of full screen mode, the assets load without a problem.
    The odd thing is, the default browser player for these assets change in appearance when using the full screen mode.
    I have setup a page to reproduce the crash:
    Navigate to: http://instapark.me/roi
    Click on the big red mp3 button, an mp3 will play in the iframe.(No crash)
    Click on the big red mov button, an mov file will play in the iframe. (No crash)
    Add to your homescreen.
    Launch from homescreen icon.
    Click on the big red mp3 button, an mp3 will play in the iframe.(No crash, but it will not play.)
    Click on the big red mov button, an mov file will play in the iframe. (crash!)

    It is already switched off because it's a known issue that the macbook pro mid 2010 has kernel panics with the discrete gpu.
    Any other guesses?
    *Also please note that this is probably a safari issue since chrome works fine. But I can't read crash logs so any help would be appreciated.

  • Unwanted title bar in full screen mode

    (Netbook, Windows 7 Starter, Firefox 3.6.13)
    When using full screen mode the Firefox title bar "usually" remains atop the page instead of retreating above as before. This occurs although the mouse position is not near the top of a web page. I've not discovered a pattern as to when the title bar remains and when it "retreats," as preferred.
    Neither Restart nor cold Reboot made an apparent difference.
    Example: title bar on this web page now shows single line on blue background with the Firefox icon followed by "Ask a Question | Firefox Support - Mozilla Firefox".

    Are you really entering the FullScreen mode using the '''F11''' key?
    Or, are you merely hiding all the Toolbars?

  • Irritating title bar in full screen mode

    When using certain apps in fullscreen hovering the mouse over the top of the screen produces the menu bar, AND a title bar which is interfering with screen real estate.
    How do I remove it?
    The screenshot below is with a youtube video playing in fullscreen, and the menu bar popped down.
    The title bar saying "Safari" and with the green button is the one I want removed. This title bar seems to pop down in Java and Flash apps, and it's particularly irritating when the pop-down steals screen real-estate (photoshop, bitwig, Flas-player, etc.). Ideally I would like to stop the menu bar from popping down as well but it doesn't seem possible.
    Thanks.

    Umasuki,
    As you may know this is a user to user forum and Apple may or may not see your opinion. If you are willing I encourage you to send them feedback here: https://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html they won't respond but at least they will know your opinion.
    Hope that helps,

  • Can't view YouTube videos in full screen mode

    This is a strange one. This problem is only happening on my son's account on his Mac Mini. We have several user accounts on that machine. On my account, I can watch a video on YouTube and click on the "full screen" icon to watch it full screen, but on his account clicking on the full-screen icon does nothting. I did a system update and found a new version of Safari and installed it. Still no fix (for him). Installed the latest flash plug-in for Safari, but the problem still persists. I assume it has something to do with some personal settings? I looked in the ~/Library/Safari folder, but not sure what to blow away.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

    found the likely issue!  are you participating in youtube's html5 trial?  go here and it will tell you if you are:

  • Do not show the Mac menu bar and the Dock in full-screen mode option not available

    "Remote Desktop Connection" for mac has an option to
    hide the menu bar in full screen mode.  I am unable to locate this option in the new
    Microsoft Remote Desktop.  Without this option the remote desktop connection bar becomes completely inaccessible.  And since the old "remote desktop connection" program has poor support for windows 8.1 I cannot go back.
    Is there a workaround?  Can you please add this important feature back in?
