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 :: 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 :: Menu Bar Not Working/no Items?

Jul 10, 2009

I have been dealing with AppleCare and they seem to be a little stumpted, so I am going to try everyone else.

When I boot up, I no longer get the items in the menu bar like date, time, wireless, bluetooth status, etc.

In the Apple Menu, things like "About this Mac", reboot, shut down, etc. Do nothing.

System Preferences gives me a beachball.

I have just recently did a CLEAN install. The install worked fine.
I then changed the time to EST and updated to 10.5.7. I did not do all the other updates...wanted to take it slow.

I am back to the issue again!

There is nothing installed on this computer other than Leopard!

It is a 15" Macbook Pro 4GB memory, Intel processor...etc.

At first Apple thought a 3rd party app may have corrupted some preferences. This can not be the case....

Thoughts? Could it be bad hardware??? The machine is just over 2 years old.

OS X :: Menu Bar Items/how To Customize?

Dec 1, 2009

I was playing with the "sudo" command & the entire system was erased , at least I learnt something new, so I reinstalled the whole thing. I noticed before there was my name displayed on the menu bar, now I don't see it. It's not an important issue but I just wonder why & how to fix it, or how to customize it.

MacBook Pro :: Can't See All Menu Items

Sep 12, 2014

When  I use Autodesk Maya, I find that there are so many menu items that they don't all display. I can hide some of the defaults e.g. battery, volume etc but I don't like hiding them. Is there anyway to get them all to display or any plugin that adds a second bar.

OS X :: Adding Items To The Finder's Go Menu?

Feb 9, 2006

It would be very useful if you could customise the contents of the "Go" menu found throughout the Finder. The possibility of adding apps/utilities or folders (with keyboard shortcuts) would be brilliant! Is there any way of doing so?

OS X :: Menu Bar/Desktop Items Will Not Show Up

Mar 11, 2010

I have a Mac OS X version 10.5.8, one of the 2008 black/white models. Yesterday, I was messing around with my computer because the hard drive will not show up in the finder (I already did the system preferences, doesn't work). However, I guess I must have deleted something because when I restarted my computer, the menu bar blinks in and out unless i get onto safari but I can't get into finder at all. Also, All of my items on my desk top are gone. And I can't get into Itunes (file locked, on a locked disk, or do not have written permission to enter it)

I'm assuming this means I need to take it in and get it fixed. But I wanted to see if I can do anything to avoid that because I am in college and have a paper every week so I pretty much live off of my computer.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Make Applescript Open More Than One Program At Once?

Jun 23, 2012

I made the code below to use together with another 2 codes. One that mounts a samba share and another that runs rsync with specific parameters. The script below runs after rsync complete its task.

The 3 codes me to test my HTML/CSS/PHP/Javascript code changes.This code works but I have to repeat it to each browser/app I want and a 10 lines script becomes 40 lines (Google Chrome, Firefox, Opera and Safari). Is there a more elegant way to do that? I've tried to use an array/list but didn't work. 

if application "Safari" is running then    tell application "Safari" activate    end tell    tell application "System Events" tell process "Safari"  keystroke "r" using {command down} end tell    end tellend if

Applications :: Reordering Third Party Menu Bar Items?

Mar 29, 2009

I am having a bit of an issue. I understand that holding down command, clicking on an OS X menu bar item and dragging right or left will allow me to reposition the menu bar items. However, how do I do this with third party applications?

I can only reposition Leopard's menu bar items. Does anyone have any ideas that they would be willing to share?

Software :: Decreasing Space Between Menu Items

Dec 21, 2009

I am wondering if there is a way to decrease the space between menu items (the things on the right side of the menu bar). There is so much wasted space between them, especially the battery percentage and the time.

Also, if anyone knows of a way to kill some of the unnecessary 3rd party menu items that don't have an option in their preferences to not display the menu item.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Menu Bar Items Won't Stay Active

Apr 24, 2012

For some reason when I try to activate some menu bar items, they won't stay active long enough for me to write or click a button. For example, when I click on the Fantasical calendar app, I can write and schedule a calendar event, but when I launch say the small window in the menu bar for Day One diary, it won't stay open. When I use the keyboard shortcut to activate Alfred, the app launcher, that window also won't stay open in order for me to write my input. I hope this is coming across clear. If need be I can do a screen capture to illustrate the problem. This is very annoying, and I really need to fix it. I ran disk repair a couple of times, but I don't know what else to do.

MacBook Air :: Start Up Disk Full - Deleted Items But Keeps Receiving Message

Apr 17, 2012

My mackbook air keeps telling me that my start up disk is full. I delete items daily but keep receiving the same message. I have found that the problem may be that items are being saved in multiple areas on my computer. I don't know why this is happening and so I don't really know which copies to delete and which to save. It this point I cant even get software updates or compress files since there is not enough space available at this time.

OS X Yosemite :: Mail Context Menu Not Working?

Nov 30, 2014

Since the installation of Yosemite, Mail context menus no longer work. Control-clicking on a hyperlink in a mail messages opens a context menu containing these items:

Selecting any of the first 3 has no effect. Just clicking on the hyperlink will switch to the browser (Safari) and open the link. Clicking on "Services" does display a list of Services, and "Open URL in Firefox" at least seems to work. However, "Open URLs in Safari Tabs" does not. This seems to indicate a possible disconnect between Mail and Safari in particular.
