Why can't I organize third party menu bar icons?

Is there a way I can organize third party menu bar icons? I know I can organize preinstalled Apple icons such as the battery indicator and time/date, but how do I order third party menu bar icons so that when I restart, they will stay in that order?

Great question.
And a related one: is there a utility to organize these? I have a ton and it would be cool to have a show/hide toggle or something.

  • Third-Party Menu Bar Malfunction

    My third party apps work fine, as do their menu bar items, except for one thing...
    After upgrading to SL from Leopard, I had several of the misc problems listed in this forum (ie. sound muted on reboot, system menu bar items not working, etc.) and all have been resolved except one. Once I have selected a system menu bar item, I can move to any other system item and the respective menu displays as it should. When I do this with a third-patry app, however, the menu does not follow my mouse. Essentially the button works as I can click it and use the items listed under each menu, I just can't move from one menu to the next without clicking on each item.
    I have spoken with Apple CS and they are looking into it but in the meantime there is nothing I can do. I have reinstalled each app, confirmed that they are fully functional, and tried deselecting and reselecting the "Show in menu bar" option for each app to no avail. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I should also mention I have tried setting up a new user also to no avail.

    I searched the web and found the following Terminal command, which seems to have removed it:
    /usr/local/McAfee/uninstallMSC

  • Seriously Apple, why can't Leopard render a transparent menu bar on my Mac?

    I have a 2-year-old PowerBook 12" 1.5 GHz running Leopard 10.5.2 freshly updated today. I thought for sure I'd get to see a translucent menu bar but, no, still opaque as ever with no option to change.
    Apple, let me tell you some of the things this pretty capable computer can do:
    -Dynamically render transparency and reflections in a magnifying Dock
    -Dynamically render transparency in Terminal windows with varying levels of transparency
    -Render GPU-intensive animations such as Genie effect, rotating cube, and dashboard "splash"
    -Hey, I can even boot into Linux, run Gnome, and make it's menu bar transparent!
    Please stop telling me my computer is not compatible enough to display a translucent menu bar. Displaying the transparency in the menu bar has got to be one of the least intensive operations Leopard will do. It is a static image (save for seldom changing menu items) that rarely needs to be re-rendered. Terminal windows, however, get resized, dragged around and display their transparency beautifully.
    Let's get some straight answers as to why this simple issue of getting a Transparent menu bar consistently displayed (ot not displayed, by choice) across all of your "compatible" hardware is such a confusing mystery.
    Thanks for fixing the Stacks, at least.

    Thanks for your input. While you may not mind a solid menu bar, I quite like it and would like to have one. My main gripe however, is the fact that this really just seems like some bug that Apple isn't willing to focus on, or admit to.
    They say the graphics card can render "most effects" but not the menu bar. But, seriously, as I've mentioned before, why can it render transparent drop-down menus, transparent Terminal windows, transparent/reflective Dock, Dashboard ripple effect but not a simple, basic, transparent menu?
    Once I get a decent answer to this, I'll be satisfied. Because right now, telling me my 64MB graphics card can't handle it seems like a load of bulls**t.

  • MIGO- why we do it in third party sales?

    Why we do MIGO in third party sales scenario?
    what is the effect of it on- our inventory?
    (In the case- third party vendor delivers the goods directly to customer)
    Please clear me?

    Incase of Third Party, the scenario can be mapped with 2 possibilities (Check details as under):
    http://help.sap.com/bp_blv1500/BL_India/index.htm
    Path: Technical Info --> Building Blocks --> Country: India
    J54: Third Party with Shipping Notification (MIGO required)
    J55: Third Party without Shipping Notification (MIGO not required)
    It depends on configuration whether MIGO is required or not.

  • Third-party menu extras?!?

    OK, so I upgraded to Snow Leopard. Since it was a clean install, I had to reinstall al my old software. Here's a few of them that don't work anymore, thanx to Apple's new policy (whatever that may be) towards third party menu extras : Menu Meters, Toast&Mount (Toast Titanium), Move Items X. Funyy, I get the message sayong something like "Bla Bla....read the documentation" . What documentation... and how do I make them work anyway ?

    Apple is not responsible for the failure or slowness of third-party developers to update their software for compatibility with new OS versions. They have access to the new OS software long before the public does, and if they can't or don't adapt their software to it, it's no one's fault but their own.
    Visit the websites of your software's developers, make sure you have the latest version of each software item, and if it doesn't work in Snow Leopard, complain to the developer.

    You find third-party apps in the App Store. What app are you looking for? Due to problems, Apple removed the ability to record that information in Health. You can always go back to whatever you used before three weeks Health was released. Why can you not check and record your blood glucose? I would assume you check it using blood samples and a glucose meter which has nothing to do with your phone. You should be able to record it in any number of apps, from Notes to purpose made third-party apps.

  • I can no longer rearrange menu bar icons..... Please help!

    Only the apple native icons (airport, BT, battery, etc) will allow to be arranged when I hold down the apple command key and drag. Previously, I could move norton AV, Weatherpop,etc. Is there a prefs file that I need to trash and rebuild or a 3rd party application that needs to be reinstalled in order for all of my menu bar icons to allow to be rearranged?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Because of the problems between Spotlight, SystemUIServer and menu bar extras I had to minimize the number I run, so I just use wClock, Scripts and Input menus. Since wClock is third party it can't be moved, I want it next to the Spotlight icon, then the Scripts menu and then the Input menu. The only way I found to get this to happen was remove everything, then turn on wClock, restart, then add the Apple ones. However, with depressing regularity after a shutdown the next restart would have them rearranged. I discovered that when that happened I could launch Activity Monitor and use it to force quit SystemUIServer, whereupon the arrangement would go back to what it had been. I would guess about 1 in 3 restarts it does not display in the order I had at shutdown.
    Francine
    PS--I noticed in another post you have APE installed. Since you aren't using any of Unsanity's haxies I would uninstall it. The balance of menu extras is chancy enough as it is, the fewer things messing about with SystemUISever, the better.

    Why does "sync now" appear in the menu bar ?

    This is actually still relevant if you are syncing with Gmail or Google Contacts or Calendar:

    If you have already removed it, you can still get it back (if you need) following the instructions in the article.
