Using OSX 10.9.4. Why does the Finder Menu bar disappear when using Chrome?

I've used Chrome for a couple years, and all of a sudden the Dock and the Finder Menu bar are not accessible when using Chrome. They are present in every other app, as usual. Please help me to get the Finder Menu and Dock active when using Chrome. Thank you.

Chrome may somehow be set to run in full-screen mode. I don't use Chrome so can't check its settings options, but try hitting ESC when Chrome is doing this and see if you get the menubar and Dock to reappear.

Why does the white menu bar stay when in full screen?

Shortly after up grading to 3.4.1 this stated to happen:
1. I open App, not in full screen
2. press the "f" key, it's takes me to full screen mode but the white Aperture menu bar remains at the top, hideing adjustments.
3. I press the "f" key to get out of full screen & I loose both full screen & the "regular" viewer.
Not sure what's going on....by the way, it sometimes functions without this problem.
Any thoughts out there?
Thanks.

Need some help. The top menu bar disappears when in an app...?????

I recently came across a problem that when I go into an application, for example MAIL, the above menu bar disappears. I am not able to access anything that would be in the above MAIL menu bar. I am still able to write/send/check mail but if I wanted to edit or change something the bar is not there. When I minimize MAIL or any other application I'm in and click on the desktop then the finder menu bar appears again. I'm not sure how to fix this...Thanks for any help someone can offer.

Try restarting the Mac and see if that helps.

Why Does My Mac Menu Bar Disappear While I Am In Safari?

How can I reset so my Mac tool bar shows in Safari

I had a problem in Yosemite where the top menu just disappeared, so I could not even tell if I was in Firefox or Safari. I could not see the toolbar which contained, for example, "Safari File Edit View History Bookmarks Develop Window Help". The same apple for the Firefox, Excel and all the other top toolbars.
I accidentally solved it when I was in Excel and pressed option-command-v. This locked up and destroyed my Excel Spreadsheet and there was no "Undo" option on that command either. The side effect was that the top toolbar came back. It was a fault I have never seen before and one which I could not easily find on ant websites. Your fault seems to be one of the closest to what I had.

Why does the phone dial pad disappear when my finger gets near the screen?

Phone problem - the touch dialpad works for the primary number called, but goes blank as soon as my finger gets near the screen when I try to enter an extension number. Air Gesture, Motion, and Palm Motion are all turned off. Why does this happen? How can I correct it?

Why does the table I make disappear when it goes over a page?

Whenever I make a table that is a bit too large for one page, the content just disapears under the second page, leaving only the bar down the side visable. I've made a header row, and ticked 'start with header row', but it is immune to all efforts to continue on the second page. I have had to resort to literally making a new table on the second page. What am I missing?

Fruhulda,
You're right, of course. Version 5 has been around long enough now that I believe it's a good guess that questions, where the version isn't specified concern the latest version, even if the poster hasn't updated their profile.

WHY does the finder insist on rearranging the files in a folder in alphabetical order even when I have selected "none" in the preferences for file organization?

WHY does the finder insist on rearranging the files and/or documents in a folder in alphabetical order even when I have selected "none" in the preferences for file organization? Even after I numbered the documents/folders to keep them in my preferred order, it will still displace them occasionally. This is becoming increasingly frustrating!
Is this a "Pages" issue or "FInder"? The vast majority of documents I use are in Pages, but there are also Numbers, PDFs, jpegs and a few other applications involved. This never happened before I upgraded to Mountain Lion; in Tiger, the documents (mostly Appleworks) and files stayed where I wanted them to be.
I am visually oriented, and prefer to arrange items in a folder in an order that makes them easier for me to access, which is often NOT alphabetical.
Can anyone suggest a solution? Please??
Thank you.
Sara

nbar,
Thank you for your reply.
However, I do not understand what you mean by "user account." I am the only user, and can find no options for "user" or "guest." The parental controls have always been off, as there are no other people who have access to my computer.
Frank,
Thank you for your reply.
All my documents, files and folders are in icon view, Arranged By: none in both view and view options. This arbitrary rearranging does not happen all the time, only when I make a substantial change to one of the documents in the file or folder. I'm not sure what you mean by "column heading."
MichaelLAX,
Thank you for your reply.
I know, to my sorrow, that Appleworks does not work with Mountain Lion. I spent at least three months converting approximately 2,000 Appleworks documents to Pages, Numbers, Bento (for databases) and Touchdraw (for drawings). So this is not the problem; but as I said, I did not have this rearranging problem with Appleworks - the icons stayed where I wanted them to be. I still miss the ease and reliability of Appleworks, darn it!
Frank,
Thank you for your second reply.
I do have the Sort By: in view options as well as in view set to "none." The finder still insists on rearranging, but only when I have made a substantial change to a document in that file or folder.
Any futher thoughts?
xdab,
Thank you for your reply.
"Are you are using icon view, but for some reason the finder moves files around? is that the problem?"
YES!! This is exactly the problem.
"If this operation is successful then erase the original and rename the new one to the name originally chosen by the user."
This seems like a lot of trouble, especially as I often work on several documents at the same time.
"By the way, the finder has a "clean up by" menu that rearranges icons in one of the standard orders, there are shortcuts that produce the same effect, for example <option><cmd>1 sorts them by name. Is it possible that this shortcut was typed by mistake without you noticing?"
I do know about this "clean up by" option, and avoid it like the plague! So I doubt this is the issue, and I infrequently use keyboard shortcuts like this anyway.
Thanks all who replied. None of the suggestions seem to work, however. Any others out there?
Regards,
Sara

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
In Firefox 4 [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode Safe mode] disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.

Why does the elements 13 change resolution when going into the editor -- it is huge and unusable

why does the elements 13 change resolution when going into the editor? -- it is huge and unusable

Many mysteries...
Which is your OS version ?
Your screen is 1920 by 1080 pixels.
The problem appeared after having worked normally.
When we select a picture from the organizer (album) and click on the edit button. The editor software changes the entire computer resolution from 1920 x 1080 to 640 x 480 (very unusable).
That's not clear for me: did you click on the 'Edit' button on the bottom right part of the organizer, or did you use the menu or the right click popup menu to open the editor? In the second case, you are in the editor workspace.
We tried right clicking on the Elements 13 icon, select properties and under compatibility we made sure that "run in 640 x 480 screen resolution" was de-selected, and it was. Cannot find any properties window for the editor?
The editor has its properties in the 'Edit/preferences' menu, but there is nothing about resolution there.
Just to be sure : when you are in the organizer with the left 'Folders' panel shown, you highlight one of those pictures to edit. Then you right click and choose to "go to folder". Do the images are shown as 'offline' ? If that is the case, the original are on an external drive which is not connected, and what you are seeing is a 'preview' copy on your computer with 640 x 480 resolution.

Why does the Date Created metadata change when images are exported?How do I stop it from changing?

why does the Date Created metadata change when images are exported? How do I stop it from changing? I must have a prefernce set up wrong.

I don't know what OS you are using, or what application you are using to view the data about your exported files, but on Windows and using Windows Explorer the "Date Created" field relates only to the date that the exported file was created, i.e. if viewed immediately after export it will show the date created as being the same date. In order to view "Capture Date" in something like Explorer, you first have to ensure you have included the Metadata as Conrad outlined above, then you have to adjust the display properties of Explorer to show the "Date Taken" field. Here is an example, part of a folder I exported back on March 3rd, note the difference between that last two dates:

The spinning beach ball of death (SBBOD) can be caused by many things. Common causes are not enough RAM, insufficient HD space or another process using a lot of the CPU's power. You can open Activity Monitor (Applications - Utilities - Activity Monitor) for many things including the %CPU column to see if there is an app using a large %CPU. Also click the System Memory tab and see how much FREE RAM it shows. As a general rule your system should have 500MB or more available.
Finally I'd recommend reading and using the Spinning Beach Ball of Death article for additonal troubleshooting steps.

Why do the rulers (cmd R) disappear after using Print (cmd P) ?

Why do the rulers (cmd R) disappear after using Print (cmd P) ?

If you are referring to Pages v5.2.2 on Mavericks, or v5.5.1 on Yosemite — the rulers do not disappear in the Pages document when using the Print (cmd+P) keyboard shortcut. The document horizontal rules are temporarily obscurred by the drop down print dialog sheet.
I observe no evidence of disappearing rules unless they are forced via the cmd+R keyboard shortcut.

Hi laura,
I suspect that your 2 decimal place numbers are formatted as text. Change the format of the column to currency and see it that works.

Why does the album artwork appear only when the first song is playing only?

Hello ckuan. Thx for your reply.
The songs are not from iTunes, they are from CDs that I had copied to my itunes library.
It is worth mentioning that I wasn't facing this issue before IOS 5.
