OS X :: Sleep Is Greyed Out In Apple Menu

Mar 27, 2010

I installed and uninstalled Aqua Connect Trial today (Terminal Server / Remote Desktop for Mac) and I'm fairly certain I now have 2 major issues because of it.Googled for the past hour for a solution but found nothing so far.

- in the menu the Sleep item is greyed out. I cannot click it, the keyboard shortcut for sleep doesn't work and pressing the power button does nothing

- all my animations aren't smooth anymore like expose, dock, dashboard, etc

I'm pulling my hair out of frustration

OS X :: Apple Menu Doesn't Put Imac To Sleep

Sep 8, 2009

Choosing 'Sleep' from the Apple Menu doesn't put my iMac to sleep, the first time, sometimes not the second, usually third try after a lo-o-o-o-n-g delay. On first try, keyboard shortcut 'Sleep' worked; thereafter, instead, the same key combo causes Restart.

OS X Yosemite :: Applescript Open Message Menu Items Greyed Out

Dec 12, 2014

When opening a Mail message with any sort of scripting, many of the menu items remain greyed out, including the one  that's important to me, 'Save Attachments...'. 

If I manually open the same message, the menu items are enabled. 

Try this script, by resetting the mailbox name to one of your own mailboxes, and you'll see what I mean. 

(I've lodged a bug report). 

Regards set SaveAttachmentsMenu to truetell application "Mail"  activate  set WindowCount to count of windows  open item 1 of messages of drafts mailbox  set x to 0  repeat # wait until the message is really open.  tell current application to delay 0.1  set x to x + 1  if x > 40 then exit repeat  if (count of windows) > WindowCount then exit repeat  end repeat  tell application "System Events" to tell process "Mail"  select window 1  tell current application to delay 0.2  if exists menu item "Save Attachments…" of menu 1 of menu bar item "File" of menu bar 1 then  keystroke "a" using command down  if not enabled of menu item "Save Attachments…" of menu 1 of menu bar item "File" of menu bar 1 then say "attachments disabled"  click menu item "Select All" of menu 1 of menu bar item "Edit" of menu bar 1  set x to 0  try  click menu item "Save Attachments…" of menu 1 of menu bar item "File" of menu bar 1  end try  repeat until exists sheet 1 of window 1  tell current application to delay 0.1  set x to x + 1  if x = 40 then  set SaveAttachmentsMenu to false  exit repeat  end if  end repeat  end if  end tellend tellSaveAttachmentsMenu

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Top Of Screen Greyed Out On Resume From Sleep

Feb 11, 2012

When I resume from sleep the top half of the screen is grey'ed out and it won't go away without going through Shut Down. Just restarting has no effect.  

FYI Just had a look at the sgcreenshot now that its been uploaded and its considerably brighter than the actual screen. In reality the top menu bar is almost completely occluded and the tone graduates out from about 90% black at the top to around 10% black at the centre of screen.

OS X :: My Apple Menu Is Not Opening Up In My Menu Bar?

Sep 30, 2010

So i know this is gonna be a challenging one...

After a day of installing and trying/deleting new apps as well as trying terminal tricks from UsingMac.com like these and these, i went up to my apple menu in the menu bar for the first time since i started fiddling around, and it looks like what you see below in the attachment. I have absolutely no idea what made it happen; I'm just wondering if there is a way to reset the menu alone. because instead of having just what it says in the "system services" section in the menu, it has all that other stuff as well (Calculator, FruitMenu, etc.).

P.S.: Fruitmenu isn't even installed. i uninstalled it after i found out it was only a demo.

So basically:
1) how do i restore the main menu in the menu bar back to its original settings?
and 2) I need to do it in a way that wont screw up the rest of my computer or settings

OS X :: 10.3 Apple Menu Isn't Working?

Jan 25, 2009

The Apple menu, on all users accounts, is not working. The actual pull down menu doesn't pull down when I click on it. Also, if I try quitting applications by using the keyboard, it doesn't work. I have to force quit any application I open.

I tried repair disk permissions, and starting up in safe boot, but it didn't help.

OS X :: Apple In The Menu Bar Change Color Automatically?

Oct 30, 2008

Hello everyone. No I AM NOT looking to mod the apple logo in my menu bar. My question is this: Why does my apple logo change color from time to time? I have seen it Red/Orange, blue, white/grey, and traditional black. Why is it doing this? I have never seen it before. No I haven't changed backgrounds/themes. It isn't all the time, infact I am not sure if it is related to any specific user intervention. I am just curious as to why it may be doing this. I've googled and only founds ways to hack it. NO I am not on hallucinogens. I thought it was related to the Apple Software update, indicating I had new updates, but this was disproven today when it was Red and I checked for updates.

OS X :: Apple Icon In Menu Bar Stuck In Graphite

Aug 9, 2010

I was switching between Blue and Graphite and now I think my apple icon in the menu bar is stuck in graphite. Though I'm not sure if that was just the way it always was. Everything else seems to be in the blue theme. Here is a screen shot of the specific area...

I have restarted my computer and everything. I'm running Mac OS 10.6.4. My menu bar is currently set to translucent but it seems to be just darker when it isn't anyway.
