Status icons in menu bar flickering

same problems, i search solutions ...

i am not alone to have this problems, i hope fix soon !

I have the exact same problem. Pretty annoying. Does anyone know how to sort this out?

save your machine with time machine

and download 10.7.2 installesd.dmg on mac appstore

make an usb boot (if you haven't) ==> find tutorial on google to do this

reboot on your usb key with ALT

1/ format your disk with disk utility

2/ install osx 10.7.2

3/ restaure all with time machine

don't find better sorry

i solved like this

I'm having the same problem.

The only way to stop the flickering is to:

• Go to spotlight in system preferences.
• Click on Privacy
• Click the "+" button
• select Your hard drive from the drop down menu

This should stop the flickering but it does mean you can't search in spotlight. I've also found that if you try and use the dictionary the dictionry app will crash. Also if you 3 finger tap a word in safari to define it safari will also crash. But it is a temperary solution for the flickering.

Hope this helps

launch console in fider > utility

look if uisystemserver (menu bar application) crashed with an indexation

mdworker (spotify indexaiton)

maybe one file block indexation with the proporty of bad owner

but the best is to reinstall and restore with time machine, that's solve it and i am on 10.7.2 now

The Spotlight-trick didn't work for me.

The following did:

Removing the file

~/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist

followed by opening Terminal and typing

killall SystemUIServer

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
