Hey guys! Problems!

My menubar isnt showing ANYTHING! The program's options are showing, i.e. Apple icon, Safari, File, Edit.... until Help..... but beyond that, spotlight icon, date and time, volume icon... is gone!

Started up Console and it gave me:
CrashReporter/SystemUIServer.crash.log
Jan 21 14:31:18 Sheans-iBook-G4 crashdump[510]: SystemUIServer crashed
Jan 21 14:31:19 Sheans-iBook-G4 crashdump[510]: crash report written to: /Users/Shean/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/SystemUIServer.crash.log

Jan 21 14:31:25 Sheans-iBook-G4 crashdump[512]: crash report written to: /Users/Shean/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/SystemUIServer.crash.log

Over and over again! Tried repairing permissions.. Nada!

So do you see anything interesting near the top of that file? That's where all the useful information (if there is any) will be.

Thats it!

And i verfified my disk using DiskUtility, and it showed this:

error.tiff

Oh God......
 
Let me guess- you recently updated to 10.4.4, and had just restarted when this began? That's what happened to me, and I had to archive and install to fix it. Hopefully you can come up with something better.:)
 
No actually... i had just installed an old copy of The Sims... played with it, everything was alright... then quit, put my computer to sleep, i went to sleep, woke up, turned on the computer, and then the menu bar options on the right hand side were gone.

The weird thing is i have installed Mac OS 10.4.4 already for a week or so, and everything was ok.

I repaired the disk problem already by booting from the Mac OS X CD and repaired my volume from there. But it still didnt work!

Did archive n install help you? What will happen to my files? And will it revert back to Mac OS X 10.4.2 i have on my disc?
 
Archive and install solved the problem. All your files will be intact, but it will revert back to the OS on your disk. All your apps should be fine, too. It's kind of annoying, but not as annoying as those damn missing menubar icons :)

I'll do that now and see what happens. Wish me luck!
