MenuPop Menu Utility Review Updated MacLife. I often see people with large monitors become very good at using keyboard commands because of the time it takes to move the mouse to the menu bar. This program is another alternative. The $5 program works in Snow Leopard programs and allows the menu to be available with a keystroke. Might save time. Would have been better to be activated with a right-click.

If your using preview. You can actually pull up a list of all Annotations. Using this list you can select all the Annotations and then delete all the annotations at the same time.
How to do this:

go to the menu bar

go to the menu bar
click on the “Edit” menu
choose “Select All”
Press the “delete” key
At this point you could use Save As to re-save the file as the ‘share friendly” version of the PDF.
Found a solution. Just go into preferences for VirusBarrier click on “Traffic” and under “Appearances” deselect “Display network traffic in menu bar.” That’ll make it disappear.
If you didn’t repair permissions after installing the update, do that now.
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it’s finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of “messages” in the permissions window, it’s ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, “Permissions Repair Complete” when it’s finished… you’re done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.
