All you should have to do is go to admin>>pages>>create new then depending on your admin layout hit the publish button. If your theme was built correctly this will automatically insert the new tab at the top of your page.
If you are using a free theme then the author may not of known how to add this.

The method I showed above is how you add them there. If publishing a page does not show up in the menu after this it could be due to the creator did not know how to add this to their theme.

Where are you getting your themes from? As I can't imagine that many people not adding that ability. I hate to sound demeaning but are you sure you are in the create new section of your admin and then hitting the publish button?
Another thing I was wondering is if you have always had this issue? Or has it only been recently. You could have a bad install of wordpress and this feature has been corrupted. Or you could have gotten a bad theme that has corrupted this ability as well.

Do you have 'private page' checked when you go to 'Edit Pages' in your Dashboard?
If it is any help, this is the code from my Header.php where the instruction to add my pages appears:
Quote:
|
<li class="page_item<?php if (is_home()) {echo ' current_page_item';} ?>"><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>">Home</a></li> <?php wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order&title_li=&de pth=1'); ?>

This code is actually relevant to how the designer built your template. As all of my menus are handled. Like mine are set in a functions.php file.
And look like this.
Code:
{
global $artThemeSettings;
if (true === $artThemeSettings['menu.showHome'] && 'page' != get_option('show_on_front'))
echo '<li><a' . (is_home() ? ' class="active"' : '') . ' href="' . get_option('home') . '">'.$artThemeSettings['menu.topItemBegin']
. $artThemeSettings['menu.homeCaption'] . $artThemeSettings['menu.topItemEnd'] . '</a></li>';
add_action('get_pages', 'art_header_page_list_filter');
add_action('wp_list_pages', 'art_list_pages_filter');
wp_list_pages('title_li=');
remove_action('wp_list_pages', 'art_list_pages_filter');
remove_action('get_pages', 'art_header_page_list_filter');

Could you post the URL to your site so we can have a look?
The Studio Press theme has a page navigation menu at the top of the page, so when you add a new page it should show up.... unless you're adding a subpage, in which case the theme might not be programed to display subpages in the menu.

Right on Themegrrl,
There are heaps of great people on this forum more than willing to help, so why not go to the trouble of providing an 'in-depth' description of your problem so we can better assist you.
It's in your best interest to make it easier for us, then you will have a much better chance of obtaining a great solution with a minimum of messing around.
Screen shots, links and a concerted effort at a highly illustrated written description works wonders.

If you put a one liner description of your problem your more likely to get filed in the 'too hard' basket.

my link is http://www.my-oil-painting-techniques.com i have tried several themes, and the one i have now, pixel, does not let the new pages i create onto the menu bar, but only the categories i create for posts goes up on the menu bar.
but id rather have the pages go up on the menu bar rather than categories.
i kind of dont want to change the theme because i worked hard on the header image and like the current look.
thank you all

Aaron, what do you have under Pages in your Dashboard? For instance, I have only one page, my About (Contact) page. If I click on Quick Edit for that page, I have to option of making it a Main Page (no parent), or if I did have another page, it could be placed as a Child page under an existing main page. Perhaps this is where the problem is...
