[Help][Solved] No menu in UV Text Editor

As you can see in the image above, I'm using Maya 2013 student edition, wondering why isn't there a UV menu, so that I can do a UV snapshot...

By the way, is there any other way to do UV snapshot as well?

Thanks in advance. user added image

For anyone who have the same problem please do as Creck said:

Well, do not know where is the problem then, as I 've tried it and it worked as expected...you should also try to reset whole settings; go to Documents\Maya\2013-x64\ and rename prefs folder to prefs_old....then start Maya...

Try maximising it? or if you hover over the 4 white icons on the main screen bottom left, then RMB you can change the viewport to perspective and UV editor, see if that works.

Ctrl+m, shift+m, Ctrl+shift+m. Seeing as you've tried the other two, my bet is on the last one.
