Is there any solution to this? I tried GeekBind to move the window, but that didnt work either.

Also, many programmes have a "Window" > "Zoom" menu option, which usually causes the front window to resize to dimensions suitable for the current monitor resolution...

Spotlight menu hidden behind menu bar in Leopard when "Show Desktop" Expose

The Spotlight menu is partially hidden behind the menu bar in Leopard when using "Show Desktop" (part of Expose). I tried using "Show Desktop" with keyboard shortcut keys and screen corners, and this behavior still exists. I tried toggling Spaces on and off, and the behavior still exists.
This has been an issue since day one of using Leopard, and on every bootup. It's absolutely reproducible, and this is a bug, unless someone can prove me wrong? (Hopefully, I'm wrong.)

Fixed in 10.5.2.

Spotlight hidden behind menu bar in Leopard?

I updated to Leopard three days ago with no problems. Today, however I suddenly find my spotlight drop down box is three quarters hidden behind the menu bar and I cannot get it to appear in front of it. Weird. Does anyone have an idea what's going on? Thanks......!

I had the same issue and tried all the suggestions (desktop from expose, enable/disable spaces, etc), but I had some important things going on and didn't want to logout. I pressed the display key on my Macbook. That's the one that switches from mirrored displays to extended desktop. That did it.
It's the F7 key on my 8 month old macbook. Not sure if the new ones have it, but try "detecting displays" (I use dual displays so it sort of makes sense to me... you may not have this enabled if you only use the one display).
Cheers!

Inbox folder hidden behind menu bar

The list of folders on the left slid up so the inbox and sometimes sent box is hidden.

Why does this forum open in a window without the menu bar ?

When coming to this forum trough the " Access the Java Studio Creator Community Forum" link on the "Java Studio Creator Forums" page, it opens a browser window without the menu bar. I understand that Sun thinks it's better for me not to have the menu bar, but I personally prefer to have it. What I prefer over everything else is to have the choice.
By the way, one of the reason I prefer Sun products over Microsoft products is that I generally can choose what is better for me. Like to have or have not a menu bar, or to have my IDE in english rather that in french. (By the way, this last issue has been solved ;-))

Use this direct URL, you can have the menu bar still --

Widows Opening Behind Menu Bar in Safari 3.0.4--WHY!!!

I've been doing some Day-Trading lately and when I open up extra windows to monitor stock activities, there is one that opens behind the menu bar and I can't grab the top of it to move it around. It's irritating as ****!! Does anyone know why this is happening or how to fix this?

I thought of that but, the Ameritrade site uses it's own web apps with their own appearance. Ugly Window's look actually. The only way to move them is with the top of their window. It does not do this on my sister's MBP with 10.4.10. However my iMac did it exactly the same with Tiger. So I don't think it's a Leopard problem. Guess I'll ask a Genius...cough...cough...

Application behind menu bar.

Hello,
One of my applications is right behind the menu bar the hand is there to grab it but I cant grab the application down from behind the menu bar. Any ideas on what to do? I'm stuck.

If this application - which shouldn't be behind the menu bar in the first place - doesn't show a 'Windows' menu in the Macs main menu bar then it's badly written (I notice it's a beta, which means it's liable to be flaky). Quit it (command-Q) then see if you can locate it's preference file in (user)/Libary/Preferences. Move this file out to the Desktop and restart the application. You will need to re-enter any settings.

Java windows slip under menu bar, how to move?

Hi, I have accidently dragged some Java windows beneath the (transparent) menu bar.
Safari browser windows do not slip under the menu bar, but those created by a Java application can slide beneath it, up to the edge of the screen...just far enough to make accessing their title bars impossible. I'm able to resize the Java windows by dragging their accessible edges but I am unable to click on their title bars in order to drag them back down beneath the menu bar.
How can I click upon title bars or resize these windows to lower them in desktop space, so their title bars are lower than the menu bar? I am currently unable to drag or click upon their obscured title bars to move these windows. Is there another way to move windows without clicking upon their title bars?
thanks

apparently there is a third party app called windowsmover or something like that
do a google search for "windows mac os move shortcut keyboard"

Windows slide under Menu Bar

I've noticed recently that I can make application windows slide under the Menu Bar. Some slide under then 'snap' back into view when I release the mouse button holding the window down. Others that don't display the grey bar at the top of the window (like the iTunes mini player for example) don't 'snap' back into view.
Anyone else have this issue or offer a solution? I am running 10.8.5. Thanks.

Can't access top of photoshop window under mac menu bar

The top of my Photoshop window has slipped under the Mac menu bar-and I can't acces it. I've tried re launching PS, it opens in the same position. I've tried the tapping the F key- does not solve it. I've tried different work spaces- still the same. I've tried using mission control- it lets me see the top bar in the photoshop window, then when I choose it, it's still the same.
Is there any way to hide the mac menu bar when I have PS open so I could grab the title bar and bring it down?
HELP- Thanks

I tried everything suggested here and on other sites and nothing* would work for me. I luckily have other monitors plugged into my laptop and when I unplugged one, the top of the Photoshop title bar showed up on another monitor.
* I tried changing my resolution to a larger resolution and when that didn't reveal it, I changed the orientation of my one of my attached monitor. I could see the top of the title bar then on another monitor, but since I couldn't control my mouse easily and get it back to my main monitor/laptop where the system preferences box was, it timed out on me and I wasn't able to grab the title bar of Photoshop. I only mentioned all that because if someone is not working on multiple screens and the resolution trick doesn't work for them, maybe try changing the orientation...but that was only an option for my attached monitor. So maybe none of this is a helpful tip. Sorry!

"Devices" now hidden from menu bar

I've somehow hidden the "Devices" selection from the left-hand menu bar in iTunes. How do I get it back?

Hover your mouse over the word "Devices". "Show" will appear at the right. Click "Show".

The search window on the menu bar has become tiny. Can I restore it?

In the past few days the search bar next to the address bar on the top of the mozilla page has become tiny--not even room for one letter. If I type a letter I am immediately taken to a google search page, and whatever I'm looking for is lost. This hasn't happened in Safari, only in Firefox. So far as I know I didn't create this change.
How can I restore the old search bar?

Place the cursor between the Location bar and the Search bar, when you see the <-> , click and drag to the left to make the Search bar larger.

"Activity" information under "Window" in Safari menu bar

In another thread a very helpful explanation was provided for the content of the information provided in the "Activity" window [or "pane"?] here:
<http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=345525&tstart=0>
Now just for interest sake what is the purpose or usefulness of this information for the average non-geek user?
Thanks

Most people can probably live their lives with never looking at the Activity window. However, it can be used in troubleshooting a web page and how Safari renders that page by tracking what has been downloaded, what couldn't be located, and what didn't download to the browser. You can force any item to refresh by Control-Double Clicking on it. This is similar to refreshing a web page, but only the selected object gets refreshed. You can also download any object to your selected download location by Option-Double Clicking on an object.
Just last week, I had a problem with a web page. One of the developers asked to see the Activity list and was able to determine that an important item was not on the list and, therefore, it was not downloaded and it did not appear on the page, causing the problem I had. From there, a solution to the problem was reached.
Some people have used Option-Double Clicking to capture flash animations or other parts of a web page.
