When Menu Bar is visible Firefox cannot be draged

If the Menu Bar is visible, the Firefox can be draged only by using a "line" where the title of a tab is shown, i.e. the area/line above the Menu Bar.
If the Menu Bar is hidden, then the whole windows title area can be used to drag the window.
Is there any settings which can be used to "fix" this problem?

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

When menu bar is hidden, I cannot find the Tools option (and i.e. Session Manager plug-in options)

The new look where the menu bar is hidden, looks really nice.
...but I can't find the Tools option when the menu bar is hidden.
Therefore I can't access plug-in options like Session Manager.
I would really like the Tools menu appearing i.e. below the Options in the Firefox 'start menu'.

Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.

Problem in Reader X: only menu bar is visible after laptop wakes up from sleep

Hi,
I am using Adobe Reader X on my MacBook (OS X, 10.6.8). If I have a pdf open in Reader, and then put my laptop to sleep, after it wakes up the content of the pdf is no longer visible. It's not that the window is all whited or blacked out, there is no window. There is only a menu bar. The file cannot be returned to normal by selecting it in the Window menu. After this happens, the only way to view this file is to close Reader and re-open the file. I tried reinstalling Reader X, but still have the same problem.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I was so surprised to see that you are using HP SimplePass V5.1 that I went back and looked through your other Posts to see if you had broached this subject in the past.
There is nothing wrong with V5.1 although it is so much out of date that I am surprised it has continued to function to this point. It is a testament to strength of the code and the health of your system that it has done so.
According to your version of the Validity Sensor Driver (V4.3.205.0), I think you can update the the later Series 6 AuthenTec version of HP SimplePass.
While the program presentation is a bit different from version 5.1, the program is essentially what you are used to using; the password / webcard database is compatible. You should be able to move to the newer version without any issues. The latest Series 6 version is more stable than previous versions; you should no longer suffer the indignities of a program that mysteriously stops working.
See the following Dragon Document:
Instructions to Update HP SimplePass
NOTE: There are two Series of HP SimplePass mentioned in the document. You want to stay with Series 6. Feel free to read about Series 8; for the moment, you are best served (in my opinion) by sticking with what you are using now.
The Update procedure is simple.
Start at Page 5: Section Procedure to Update / (Re) Install HP SimplePass
Essentially you want to complete the following sections:
Export your Webcards (if possible)
Create Restore Point
Reinstall Validity Driver
Reboot Computer
Download and Install HP SimplePass (V6.0.100.276)
When you are done with the Update:
See the instructions in the section titled:
Device Power Setting – Wake Up!

Cannot click bookmarks on menu bar after ALT-key when menu bar is hidden

If you personalize the toolbars, dock the "Bookmarks objects" to the menu bar (useful to reduce space) and hide the menu bar (making it visible by pressing the ALT key) you're not able to click a bookmarks bar's item anymore because (after having shown it by pressing ALT key) as you click the bookmark button the menu bar loses focus causing the whole bar to be hidden again and the click event to be catched by the main window instead of the bookmark button.
[http://alextm.no-ip.com/bookmarks_on_menubar.JPG Screenshot of the header with bookmarks]

With F10 you obtain the same result, the menu bar is shown but when you click on a non-menu item the bar is hidden again not allowing the bookmark item to catch the click event.
Of course I know how to move the bookmarks bar back to the tab bar, but it is not a solution to the problem I've posted, just a workaround. As I've said in my previous post I've moved the bookmarks bar there to limit the height of the window's heading section: if I move it down again I miss my target.
Anyway, I don't think we are here to decide wherever to place the bookmarks bar, but to notify to the developers the presence of this issue.

The Menu bar is visible but not functional, I have to force-quit Firefox 4.0 every time I want to close the application.

This is a recurring but not constant problem I encounter while running Firefox 4.0 on my MacBook OSX10.6.7. The Menu bar across the very top of the screen will be visible, but none of the menus will work if I click on them (File, Edit, View, History, etc.) I have to force-quit Firefox and restart it to get it to work again.
Also, my pinned tabs have disappeared, for no apparent reason. And to be honest, this version is way slower and buggier than my old Firefox, and it's driving me nuts.

Hello DRAnderson100, try to delete the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox profile folder] and check it again.

Spry menu bar not visible in live view

Hi everyone,
I was just working on the css for my spry menu bar and went to check it out in the live view, but it is no longer visible. I checked it out in Safari and Firefox to no avail. It looks totally fine in the design view in Dreamweaver. I'm new to web design and I have no idea what I did, but I'm really hoping someone here does! Below is the CSS.

My guess is that you have a dark background in which case the menu items will not be seen.
I suggest you have a look here first http://www.dwcourse.com/dreamweaver/ten-commandments-spry-menubars.php#one, then resurrect the original SpryMenuBarVertical.css and change as required.

The menu bar next to "Firefox" is gone; how do I get it back?

When I launch Firefox, the menu bar at the very top of my screen is showing only the Apple icon and "Firefox." None of the other menu items are there. How do I get the menu bar to display?

Try to remove the Firefox plist file (org.mozilla.firefox.plist).

Problems with Menu Bar Vertical and Firefox

The menu bar looks fine in IE. When viewing in Firefox the submenus are not displaying correctly. I can only see the edge of them. Please help!
Thanks Mary

Mary,
You have added overflow: hidden; to one of your menubar styles. That is why the submenus are, well, hidden!
Go to this rule and get the hidden overflow out of the stylesheet:
ul.MenuBarVertical li
     margin: 0;
     padding: 0;
     list-style-type: none;
     font-size: 100%;
     position: relative;
     text-align: left;
     cursor: pointer;
     width: 12em;
     background-color: #FFFFFF;
/*               overflow: hidden;     delete this */
/*     border-color: #000;
*/     outline-color: #333;
     outline-style: none;
     outline-width: thin;
     border-top-color: #000;
     border-right-color: #000;
     border-bottom-color: #000;
     border-left-color: #000;
     border-top-style: none;
     border-right-style: solid;
     border: 000000;
     border-bottom-style: solid;
     border-left-style: solid;
     border-top-width: thin;
     border-right-width: thin;
     border-bottom-width: thin;
The reason this hides the submenus is because submenus are lists nested in the top menu items. By their nature, they overflow from the extent of the top menu. By hiding them, the only part that shows up is the small portion that lies within the extent of the top menu item.

How can I add "Tools" menu bar item to firefox orange button

After upgrading to FireFox 4 I decided to hide the menu bar, doing so I am not able to access the addons like "tamper data" which can be accessed only from the tools item of the menubar. Is there a way to customize the orange button of the firefox4 to add tools menu item?

Thanks for pointing me to the add-on. But is there a way by which I can edit any xul file or any customize option like the customize toolbar.

When menu bar is on a Master page, it is always on bottom layer on its child pages.

How do you put items under it on its child pages? I don't want it getting covered over with added graphics. The workaround of pasting the menu bar on every page sucks.

Wondering if anyone ever worked this out - I am having the identical problem and more, on the individual pages, my "controlled by master" is completely greyed out. My layout works well when I am working on the master.
I am totally new to liquid layout, any tips welcome.

Menu bar not visible

My Final Cut menu bar only appears when I move cursor to top of screen. Then it disappears when I move cursor away from top of screen. I am NOT in full screen mode. This issue began happening after I deleted preferences. Is there a way to have menu bar remain at top of screen without moving cursor there?

Did as you suggested and uninstalled BlackMagic drivers and trashed prefs using Digital Rebellion. Still no menu bar (see screen shot). When I go to Library>preferences, i see no FCP prefs. Is that unusual even after restarting FCPX?

Spry menu bar error in firefox....driving me nuts!

First of all, thank you in advance for all your help. I have a problem that I can't fix and it is driving me insane.
I have vertical spry menu bar that shows a scroll bar on mouse over in firefox. Here's what driving me insane. A buddy of mine came to me with this problem on his website http://www.fransky.com a while back and I fixed it. But I can't remember what I did. Now he has a new domain and moved the site to the new location http://www.franskyselfdefense.com The old one is still up and running and works fine in firefox. The new one has the srcoll bar over the buttons on mouse over again in firefox. SpryAssets are the same. Identical pages uploaded to either website will work on the old site - and will not work on the new location. I can't find a major difference in the uploaded folders. I thought it must be a site wide configuration but I can not find anything.
It is getting to me guys, can you please help. I tried everything I could think of and I can't, for the life of me, remember what I did the last time. I know that the site has a lot of trash in the code. Was my buddies first shot and he changed and deleted a lot in the process and there is a lot of resedue in the code. We will start over in time, now that he knows what he wants, but I need to get this working for him. It's his source of income and I don't think I have enough space for him and his family as new roommates :-)
I fixed it before and I am not that smart, obviously or I would remember.
Any idea?
Thanks again,
Max

One more thing that I forgot. We moved the online store to the new location. The better link for the comparison is http://www.fransky.com/shop.html because it has all the sub items too and is just an older version of the http://www.franskyselfdefense.com/index.html with a little bit different content, but no major changes in the menu bar.
I uploaded the new index up to fransky.com as http://www.fransky.com/index75 as comparison and you can see that it works just fine there.

Menu bar not visible in IE

i published the website, i was able to view the menu-bar in all the explorers except Internet explorer. please give suggestions for rectifying the problem

The iWeb default navigation won't display on a PC running IE if java is disabled. This is why its better to hide the default navigation and build your own. See...

YouTube Menu Bar Remains Visible In Fullscreen

Very recently, whenever I watch a YouTube video in fullscreen on safari, the menu bar doesn't disappear like it normally did. I updated to Yosemite last week, and initially this wasn't a problem, so I'm ruling out the OS for now. Therefore I can only assume that it's a HTML issue. Is anyone noticing this issue at the moment, and better yet, does anyone know a way to fix it?

That's just a temporary fix : put your pointer in the bottom left corner once in fullscreen, and they will go away.
Whenever the bars disappear, you can move your mouse once again to get rid of the tiny little white pixel left by the mouse.
