The Main Menu bar at top is hidden - how do I keep it showing?

The main menu bar at the top of Firefox 3.5 is hidden. I can bring it up using Alt-T but can't keep it showing. Does not seem to be an option in the "Options" menu under "Tools"
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Today, after I installed a Jave Runtime update

In Firefox 3.6 and later on Windows you can hide the menu bar via "View > Toolbars" or via the right click context menu on a toolbar.
Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the menu bar temporarily.
Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the menu bar or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

First generation apple tv has lost its main menu bar on top of screen. Also I am currently in language choice and my remote seems to be locked, is that possible and if so how do you unlock it?

You would need to go to an Apple Store (make an appointment) and take the phone, her father's original invoice when the phone was purchased, and a copy of his death certificate. Only with these will Apple unlock it. If you can't get these, the phone is permanently unusable.

How can I restore the icon items in the main menu bar (clock,time,battery)?

A few weeks ago I noticed that the items in the main menu bar are not updated, do not work, and cannot be selected. When I move the cursor over this area, the rainbow cursor appears and nothing can be selected. As a result, the time, date, battery status, finder, and sound icons in the upper right hand corner no longer function. I have shut down and restarted the computer, but the problem still persists. Any available help on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Niel, I followed your suggestion, but nothing seemed to change. I couldn't find the exact file, but found one that was very similar....com.apple.systemuiserver.plist...... I dragged the icon to the desktop and then attempted to move it to the upper right corner, but the rainbow cursor was displayed and nothing happened. Do you have any other ideas? Thanks for your assistance.

How do I add third party plug-in to Acrobat Pro XI and add things to the main menu bar.

Running Acrobat Pro XI, (CC suite) on MacPro OSX 10.8
Main Menu Bar only shows 'Acrobat File Edit View Window Help'.
No Third Party Plug-ins are shown under 'Acrobat' on the Menu Bar
Acrobat Pro 9 (also installed) shows the Third Party Plug-ins and a lot of other options on the Menu Bar
How do I get Pro XI to look like Pro 9

You'll have to install PitStop again and point it at the new Acrobat when it asks you, or you can open the Acrobat 9 package and copy PitStop from the plugins folder into the same folder in Acrobat XI.
You didn't mention which version of PitStop you have so you'll need to check the system requirements to make sure you are compatible.
http://www.enfocus.com/en/support/knowledge-base/pitstop-pro-system-requirements?q=system+ requirements
Also be aware of the interface change between Acrobat 9 and XI, you no longer have all the tool bars available on the top, you now have tools in a column on the right.
But you can drag tool icons up to the top and make sets as well.
You can get information on the differences within PitStop here.

Adding sub-menus wrecks main menu bar display

I have just learned to create a Spry horizontal pull-down menu. I have dark gradient images for both the 'up' and 'down' states, and I've set my text attributes and everything works fine.
(I'm new, but trying hard.)
HOWEVER - I have 2 problems:
as soon as I add in sub-menus to a menu item, the gradient images fail to show on the main menu for that menu item only. I just get a white block, out of which you obviously can no longer read the white text. The gradients and other attributes immediately apply beautifully to the sub-menu items (even though I haven't even applied any attributes to them yet!), but they are lost from the main menu bar wherever I apply sub-menus.
ALSO - although the 'up' state gradient image works fine behind the menu item, the downstate does not show when I hover my mouse over it. I've checked that the 'up' and 'down' files are not identical, and I've ensured that they are both applied in the CSS.
When I remove the sub-menus - works fine. Add 'em back in, problem recurs. Applies to whichever menu item I apply the submenus to.
I have downloaded the latest version of Spry (no idea which version I already had) but can't see where to install it or how to run setup. Why are things never easy...?
I am using Dreameaver CS4 v10 and Chrome browser. Same thing happens in Firefox, IE and Safari - no difference.
Please forgive my newness. I have had a look at other similar forum posts but although people seemed to have linked issues, they were not the same.
Anyone any ideas? I am getting desperate. Been trying to fix it by myself all day.
Thanks
Nicola

Spry hover. Main menu bar, and sub menu highlight.

Hello,
I'm currently working on a project and it requries the use of Spry. I've got a horrizontal menu bar, and have a few questions.
1. Is there a way to have the ACTIVE page/button, in the menu, a diffrent background image than the other link in the bar? For example. A pressed in button as the active current page. and the remain buttons looking as if "popping" out. Also a requirement for this project is using an iFrame for the main content with all pages linked to the iframe, I think this limits what I can do, correct?
2. I've got what I want. somewhat, in regards to a background image and a hover. However I do NOT want my drop down/submenu to have the same highlight as the main menu bar. I want the main menu bar to have an image as the hover, but I only need to the drop down to have a color for it's highlight and no image.

There are different ways to have the active page button fifferent to the rest. Depending on your setup, you can inline styling, you could give the page an ID and using CSS rules give it a difference or you can use the SpryElementSelector to discover the URL and compare that with the URL in your menu. iFrames have no negative effects on a menubar.

That can be done using CSS. Have a look here before you start http://www.dwcourse.com/dreamweaver/ten-commandments-spry-menubars.php#one

I have a new MacBook(2012). Being a new Mac user, I do not know what to do when Safari doesn't open at all. The icon just bounces up and down and when the cursor is on the top main menu bar it is the spinning rainbow wheel. Any ideas for help?

When I try to open safari the icon stats bouncing and then nothing happens other than the cursor turning to a spinning rainbow wheel when it hoovers on the top main menu bar. I have shut down and restart several times. My safari worked yesterday and then today this, but with. I indication of a problem. I can't even get the browser window to open so that I can clear caches or reset anything. When I opened my computer this time I don't even get a bouncing icon. No recognition of selecting the program at all. If I go to spotlight and try to open safari from here I still get no response. Can you help?

Hi ...
If you have moved the Safari application from the Applications folder, move it back.
As far as the cache goes, there's a work around for that when you can't empty the Safari cache from the menu bar.
Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.aple.Safari.Cache.db. Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Try Safari.

Try to edit the size of the page using the sides of the page, or if you are desperate, force quit using command-Q. In full screen put your cursor on the top of the page, and the menu bar will appear. If it doesn't keep "pushing" it up until it does. Hope this helps!

If i factory reset my iPhone will it relock to O2?
I've had my iPhone 3G for a couple of years and when out of contract i asked O2 to unlock it, which they did. I've used a Three sim card and it works okay. I've now decided to sell it but before I send it to the buyer i want to factory reset the phone. Will it remain available to use on any network once i've reset it, because i've advertised it as an unlocked phone?
If it was officially unlocked by O2 it will remain unlocked if reset or updated.
Also, just as a side note if you can help. Its running iOS 3.1.3. Once factory reset and connected to iTunes will it force an iOS 4 update or can you choose not to update the OS?
If you restore it in iTunes it will be updated to the current release, 4.3.1. There are ways around this; Google is your friend.

How do you make the Safari menu bars at the top and bottom of the browser go away in iOS7 when you can't scroll the screen?

The menu bar at the bottom of Safari screens only goes away if you scroll the screen. But for one page content, the screen can't be scrolled which renders useless any links/buttons at the bottom of the page.
Is there a fix for this in iOS7?
In iOS6, users needed only to tap the screen to remove the Safari menu bars. This does not work in iOS6.

In Safari > View choose Exit Full Screen

I would like to delete an icon from the status menu bar, and then delete the remnants of an already deleted programme. Any help would be gladly appreciated.

I have attempted to delate Comodo AV, from my iMac. I have achieved this to a degree, as when i search for "Comodo" on finder, nothing appears. However the icon still appears in the status menu bar at the top right of my screen. Comodo worked fine, until the upgrade to Mavericks. I contacted Comodo and they said there should be no problem with Comodo AV working in Mavericks. Clearley this wasn't the case. I deleted as much of the software as i could, but have been left with hidden traces of Comodo's presence.
I there fore have two questions,
How can i take the icon out of the status menu bar? I have tried app removers without any luck as according to finder there isnt any comoso on the mac. I have also tried to use the "cmd and drag" technique, but again nothing happens.
How can i find the residue of Comodo on my hard drive if it is not showing up on any search?
I would really like to resolve these issues and any support would be greatly received.
thanks
Tim

Many thanks, Phil. I purchased the app you recomended, and following a bit of messing about, achieved both of my desired outcomes.
For your information yes there was a quit option, but this only worked as long as i was logged in. Whenever i logged out and back in again it returned.
thanks again,
Tim

IMac (2008) OS10.6.8 - Main menu freezes when running more than one application at a time. Apple and 3rd party applications - all freeze the main menu. Safe mode seems to work OK. Tried repairing permissions - didn't work.

For the past 60 days I've experienced Main Menu freeze when running more than one application at a time. iPhoto, Preview, Text Edit, Epson Scan, Firefox and Thunderbird are the apps I use almost daily. No matter what I do, when more than one is running they will freeze the Main Menu (top of the screen). I've tried booting is Safe Mode and I don't seem to have a problem. I've tried several suggestions from repairing permission (DiskUtility) to eliminating specifis login items. Nothing works. I've posted this issue on the Apple forum several times and no one else has experienced this problem. I hesitate to take my iMac to the Apple Store or a private Apple repair service until I've exhausted all of my options. Do I have any more options?

Question: Everytime an app crashes I have the option to report it to Apple - which I usually do. But I've NEVER reported a Main Menu freeze because it never asks me to
There's really no need to submit to Apple, it's just a round file cabinet on the other end, especially with 10.6 or earlier.
This sure sounds like a resource problem...

In the Memory tab, are there a lot of Pageouts?

Add a link to the navigation / menu bar

I would like to add a home button infront of the My Workspace button in the navigation/menu bar at the top of my Vibe page.
What jsp of file should I edit to achieve this?

I didn't look for that JSP, but used the branding for a high level "menu" AND wrote my own JSP to have a dynamic horizontal menu based on a portion of the workspace tree. The problem with changing Vibe's grey menu bar is that any upcoming updates might destroy your tweak. I have a few of those I need to keep in mind whenever an update or patch is done.
With my JSP adding, removing or modifying workspaces/folders in the identified branch automagically changes on the fly generated horizontal menu with the next refresh/visit of the landing page using the JSP. The menu can be for any branch of your workspace tree. If a visitor doesn't have access to a workspace or folder, the menu skips right over it automagically as well.
You can find this homebrewed JSP and key details at : Use this nifty JSP to make a dynamic horizontal menu from a branch of your workspace tree | Novell User Communities
It allows you to reorder the menu items and even drop some workspaces/folders from the menu with a simple trick explained in the article.
To see the JSP at work, go to CSDECSO - Conseil scolaire de district des écoles catholiques du Sud-Ouest or any of our 30 or so school web sites being implemented within our existing Vibe instance. You won't be able to change the tree branch, but you will see the menu. Some schools have slightly different menu choices, if you poke around long enough to find these differences. I just made them accessible to the public a few weeks ago.
Don't forget to use the integrated GoogleTranslate (generally near the Vibe printer icon in upper right corner beneath the branding and grey menu) to convert the bulk of our sites' content to any one of the 60 or so languages supported by Google. I have an article explaining how this was done as well. Of course, it is an automated translation, so don't expect perfection and don't be offended if it comes out the wrong way.

How do I resize so that I can max and minimize the page again. I clicked on something and now can not see the ubuntu menu bar at the bottom of my screen while browser is openj

I cant resize, minimize/maximize because the top bar of the browser has disappeared and the browser window now occupies my entire screen, I can no longer tab back and forth using the ubuntu menu bar at the bottom of the screen. I have to pull down from File to quit, there is bar at the top that I can click on with my mouse. I did this accidentally and rather quickly by clicking with the mouse on something late last night, and I can't correct or even find out what I've done

My home page background has a design on it. How can I change it back to its original plain background.

The Main Menu bar at top is hidden - how do I keep it showing?
