Generic icon since update

I have the same problem I've seen others have.  Since the last upgrade on Reader all of my PDF files have a generic icon. Any ideas of how to fix this?

  • Cannot open firefox on email (AT&T yahoo) icon since updating to v8

    Ever since I updated to the new version of Firefox I cannot open Firefox when I click my AT&T yahoo icon. I get an orange screen and it says Mozilla Firefox in the upper left corner. If I click in the left corner it says "not responding." This also happens when I click on the Firefox icon. The only way I have been able to get into Firefox is to right click on the Firefox icon and select "open outside BufferZone." BufferZone is a security program Kim Komando recommended. I did not have this problem until I updated. What can I do to fix this?

  • I have just updated to ISO 8 and my app icons are not displaying the correct icon but just a generic icon. Anyone had a similar problem?

    I have just updated to ISO 8 and my app icons are not displaying the correct icon but just a generic icon. Anyone had a similar problem?

    That happened to me for a short period of time after I updated. It didn't do it with all apps, but it did it with a few here and there. Try a few basic standard troubleshooting steps. Close all apps and reset the iPad.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    You can also try resetting all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
    Hopefully it will be something simple, but don't rule out restoring the iOS software, if nothing else works, but start with this easy stuff first.

    Try a reset Carole ...
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings

  • Since updating to iMovie '11, I have two iMovie icons in launchpad

    I update from iMovie 10 to iMovie '11 today. Since the update, I now have two iMove icons oin Launchpad - one one the first page and one on the second page.
    This isn't a life-and-death matter, but doesn't seem right.
    Any thoughts about how to sort it?

    I also have this duplicated iMovie icon since upgrading. Anyone know how to get rid of it please? I have tried the old click and hold technique to bring up the cross, but i dont want to delete the app, just the duplicate icon (both icons are linked to iMovie 11).

  • HT204291 Since updating to OSX Mavericks, my airplay icon is missing

    Since updating to OSX Mavericks my airplay icon is missing from my IMac (3.06GHZ).  However, it is present and working completely appropriately on my Macbook Pro with Retina display.  Both have the same OSX, Apple TV is fully updated.  I have reset my computers, appleTV, routers, iTunes multiple times, but it's just my IMac that is having the problems displaying the Airplay icon.  Not sure what else can be done or why one computer works while the other doesn't when the settings are otherwise the same.  Airplay worked on it without problem before the patch.

    1) open control panel.
    2)Choose Network and internet
    3)Select the VIEW NETWORK STATUS TASKS under NETWORK and SHARING CENTER section
    4) Choose the active network connection. It is usually name " wireless Network Connection 1" or something similiar.
    5) Click the properties button
    6) If the Internet PROTOCOL VERSION 6(TCP/IPv6) is checked, uncheck it, then click OK.
    7) Click CLOSE
    8) Restart iTunes and try to use the Home Sharing feature again.

  • I run windows 7.  Since updating itunes, I have been unable to open itunes.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled, and have chosen to run a administrator.  Itunes icon now displays a shield with yellow

    I run windows 7.  Have been unable to open itunes since updating last week.  I have uninstalled itunes and reinstalled, and have checked run as administrator, but still can no open.  I notice that there is now a shield with yellow and blue squares next to it, that i do not think were there before.

    many thanks, Mary.
    The ModName is ituneup.dll; the modver is 1.0.7.0.
    Do you have the TuneUp plugin installed for your iTunes? If so, I think your copy is causing the issue here. Try the following document:
    iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
    ... does that help with the launch errors?

  • Mail won't open - generic icon

    I clicked on Mail in the dock and the icon turned into a generic icon and bounced, but Mail won't open. I've tried repairing permissions and restarting, etc, but the generic icon remains. In the Apps folder it shows the generic icon, as well.
    This is not my primary computer and I'm somewhat reluctant to upgrade the OS due to others that use this Mac. Any thoughts on how I can fix Mail?
    It's possible this happened after a software update. But I'm not certain. Thanks.

    Disk Utility is the same utility that you used to repair permissions. You are correct that you can't repair the drive without booting from another disk but since you don't want to mess with the computer you don't want to repair it anyway. I'm suggesting you just analyze the drive to see if it is in need of repairing because that would tell us if that is the potential problem.

  • Since updating to IOS 8.1 on ipad mini can't download apps.  Apps show "waiting." Have reset to new condition with no improvement.  Any solution?

    Since updating to IOS 8.1 on ipad mini can't download apps from iTunes store.  Apps show "waiting." Have reset to new condition with no improvement.  Also turned off Wi-Fi and re-connected.   Any solution?  Thanks,

    If you restored your iPad as new, and it still didn't help, I don't know if anything in here will help. in any event, I have posted this boilerplate of suggestions many times in the past and the suggestions in here have worked for others at one time or another. Feel free to give them a try.
    1. Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
    2. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    3. Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. If you see a downloads tab in the lower right corner, then there is a download in iTunes.
    4. If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    5. You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again. Apps may also be able to be deleted in Settings>General>Usage>Storage if you cannot get the X to pop up on the icon.
    6. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
    7. Reset your router. Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again.

  • Data overages since updating to iOS 6 - fixed and solution

    How do I go from 300mb per month for the past year to 3 gigs in one month? iOS 6 and podcasting being removed from the OS.
    After updating my 4s with iOS 6, my data usages more than quadrupled from 300-400mb per month in the past year to 3 gigs in a month since updating. My usage was the same. So I decided to monitoring my daily usage and made it a point not to use the 3g and was getting 100-200 mb a day in usage still.  Then I realized that ever since podcasting was removed from the OS and made into an seperate app it was checking and downloading podcasts automatically even when wifi wasnt available
    I did the following and my usage is back to normal again.
    Setting>Podcasts> Turn off Sync Subscription and Turn off Use Cellular Data (I had this turn off, even when I was getting overages)
    Also do the following:
    Launch the Podcast App
    Go to Library>>For each podcast> Expand the settings by clicking the "right arrow" next to podcast name and uncheck auto-download. There seems to be a bug that when "Auto-Download" is check it downloads whenever a podcast is available even though iOS 6 was told not use cellular data for downloading in the setting above. I also think the app is refreshing and check for new episodes through the 3G as well
    I now go into each Podcast and manually download each new episode when I am near a wi-fi connection (Make sure the 3G icon is replace by the wifi icon on your iphone).
    You can still force the podcast to use 3G by manually downloading them when wifi isnt available.
    Hope this helps and they fix it.
    AT&T told me before I figured it out, it was not their problem and apple told me there are no issues with sudden overages with iOS 6.
    Happy Podcasting,
    Bang P.

    Apple told you there are no excessive data usage issues with IOS6?  Haha, that's typical, did you tell them to simply search their discussion forums for "IOS6 excessive data usage"?  They'll discover massive amounts of people complaining about this very issue, including myself.  But that's Apple for you, never admitting to a problem, always pretending to be perfect.  Meanwhile, millions of users are going to be shocked when they get their November bills and notice they've incurred excess data charges.  Thanks Apple, after the maps fiasco I thought you couldn't get any worse, I guess I was wrong.

  • Since updating to iOS 6 on my ipad i am unable to connect to the internet, itunes or the app store. I have tried many suggestions about changing the dat, logging in/out of itunes etc but nothing has worked! Please help :)

    Since updating my ipad to iOS 6 a few days ago i can't seem to get onto the internet, the app store or itunes, nor can i update to iOS7!! I sent an email to apple support and they said we don't handle these issues and redirected me back to the help forums which i have already seen and tried everything other people have suggested and nothing has worked (changing date, signing in/out of itunes etc). When i go to app store the screen is blank, in itunes it just keeps saying loading but never gets anywhere and same with the internet! When i go to settings to update to iOS 7.0.4 it says software update unavailable, try again later. Not sure what to do now. Nothing works, can't use my apps, facebook, music etc. Will contact apple again and try get some answers. But thanks for any info

    Some things to try first:

    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Why is it that Apple have no interest in helping I have a iPhone 4S and since updating to ISO 7.0.4 I have no wifi at all told me it's a hardware issue and I will be charged for the repair sick of it what a scam

    Why is it that Apple have no interest in helping I have a iPhone 4S and since updating to ISO 7.0.4 I have no wifi at all told me it's a hardware issue and I will be charged for the repair as it's just over a yr old so I've got a 24 month contract so 12 months with a phone that is not working right I have read loads of other people that have the same problem so how can they put it down to the phone and when asked where to take it was told to google it not happy at all apple u need to sort it out never again am I buying anything for yourselfs again DISTGUSTED would be an understatement

    No joy at all they just keep saying it's the phone but was fine before update and @metasolaray why should I pay for extra cover when the fault is not the phone but the update they have put out for everyone to install and I am far from being the only person as there is hundreds of people going through the same with this update and it's not been the first time they messed it up

    Apple should take resonsibility for this, otherwise they will lose lots of loyal customers. I have moved away from the ipad due to expense and am now very tempted to do so away from the iphone. Selling a product that prompts an update that breaks the phone is not good.

    Have had the same issues with iPhone 4S since the upgrade.  No wifi button, battery draining every 8 hours with no use, phone shutting on & off for no reason at all.  I gave in and tried the hair dryer method.  Turned the phone off and hel d the dryer over the camera lense area for one minute.  Turned the phone back on and to my shock, had wifi button back again.  That was 2 days ago.  Battery is lasting normal amount of time again and I can use wifi again!  Hopefully this will last.  I know it doesn't work for everyone but it doesn't hurt to try.  Much better than spending the $200 at the Apple store, which by the way, the genius said Apple is aware of the problems but there is nothing they can do.

    Having the same issue: iOS 7.0.2 with no WiFi / poor Battery stamina and really slow software experience when opening several options at Settings icon.
    Apple care agent contacted me and we try all alternatives to isolate and detect if this is regarding a hardware problem. Of course they told me it is. Too sad. My phone is in immaculate condition.
    My mother has an Iphone, my father has an Iphone, my 2 sisters have Iphones, my brother, wife and daugther... we all have Iphones. Mine's the only one with this fault (my personal experience: fail prob is 12,5% -1 out of 8).
    At this point, I'm evaluating to stop buying apple products for fear that in the future the same will happen with some "premium" product that ultimately they are not.
    Too sad, sorry but this is too much.

    I got my 4s in August 2012, as an upgrade on my Vodafone contract Following the installation of IOS 7 I also experienced greying out of wifi and bluetooth. I tried various options suggested on forums however none worked. I took my phone to Vodafone who told me it was a problem they were aware of but couldn't do anything about as Apple had to deal with it. I took it to my nearest Apple store (60 miles round trip!) to be told it was not their responsibility, it was Vodafone's - something to do with consumer law! They also said I would have to pay £160 for a replacement phone as it couldn't be repaired. The 'Genius' was very cagey about it being a common problem by the way!! Back to Vodafone who said it was not their responsibility so back to Apple. This time I spoke with a Manager who told me in not so many words that it was an issue and agreed to halve the replacement cost of £160 to £80. By this time I just wanted it sorted to reluctantly paid £80 for a replacment phone. Seeing as this is CLEARLY a design fault, Apple should have replaced it free of charge. This experience just confirms what I am reading in lots of places about the Apple Company. I was going to buy an iPad but have decided not to now. I shall NOT be replacing the iphone when my contract is up. I too will be writing to BBC Watchdog.

    You will probably be told that the solution is a replacement phone. Ask to speak to a Manager and insist on getting it at a lower price. I did this and got it at 50% of the usual repacement cost. Still not ideal but at least it saves you a bit of the money you shouldn't have to pay in the first place!

    I depend alot on my Iphone and this Wifi greyed out issue is really getting to me!! This caused me to lose some business, but I'm sure I will make up for that in Andriod World. Switching back to andriod should have never switched to apple in the first place.

    4s owner in the same boat as everyone else.
    I setup a service call with apple on Monday this week and was told it's quite a common hardware failure. When I asked why I should be paying for a new phone I was advised to book an appointment in store. Well I've just returned from my appointment with a "genius" who told me that when the update is installing if any component is weak when installing it will be permanently disabled.  Was then told £150 for a new phone which I declined.
    I've had  iPhones for 4 years now but due to this issue and apple washing their hands of any responsibility it will be my last.
    Disappointed that a premium product has such poor backup from the manufacturer. If it was only my phone and not thousands of others I'd have probably paid for a new phone but I'll never give apple another penny again.

    Same problem with my partners iPhone 4s. Restored the device but still no luck. Going to book an appointment but it sounds like we wont have much luck as it is just over a year old.
    Nexus 5 time I think for both of us.
