My desktop icons are not displaying properly

After powering up my MacBook Pro, some of my desktop icons show as archives instead of an actual pic of the icon.  I have restarted and that does not change the icons.

Thanks abwhite57 for the suggestion.  I was able to fix the problem before seeing your reply. 
As I went thru the process of cleaning up the desktop icons, I noticed that moving one to the trash or to the finder would change the thumnail view back to it's proper appearance.  So an icon would go from one that said "archive" back to thumnail view of it's webpage.  So I then dragged the icon back onto the desktop.  Problem solved.

  • After Security updation of Windows 7 in Boot Camp (Mac Book Pro with Retina Display) on 13-Nov-2013, Windows 7 Desktop Gadgets are not working properly.

    After Security updation of Windows 7 in Boot Camp (Mac Book Pro with Retina Display) on 13-Nov-2013, Windows 7 Desktop Gadgets are not working properly.
    This is boot camp problem, because in other normal notebooks (e.g. SONY VAIO, Lenovo with Windows 7) the gadgets are working normally.
    I am attaching the screen shot of Desktop Gadgets and Security updates of Windows 7.
    Kindly solve this issue ASAP.

    Have you reinstalled the latest Boot Camp Windows 7 drivers, just in case Microsoft overwrote some of them during the Windows 7 security update?

  • Elements Organizer 8 - some WMV are not displayed properly in the Play Video but are in Play Vide

    Hello:
    Elements Organizer - some WMV are not displayed properly in the Play Video but are in Play Vide on Full screen. What's the problem? Wrong codec?

    Because WMV's can contain a lot of flags, like DRM, they can exhibit odd behavior, indeed.
    Usually, AV files will display in their native resolution, i.e. in their set Frame Size/Aspect Ratio and with their set PAR (Pixel Aspect Ratio), but sometimes those flags are missed, or are altered by other programs.
    Remember, WMV's are designed to be streaming delivery-only, and are not intended, or designed to be edited. Most NLE's (Non Linear Editors) will allow them to be edited, but will require extra processing to do so. As is mentioned, WMM is designed around editing that delivery-only format, but most others are not.
    There are many other formats/CODEC's, that ARE designed to be edited by the vast majority of NLE's, such as DV-AVI Type II's.
    The best workflow is to NOT bring WMV's into the mix, unless one is using WMM exclusively. Converting those to an easily editable format/CODEC will always be the best course of action.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Pages are not displaying properly

    Hi
    I am using EP 7.0 SP 7.0. Some of the pages (like new ivew creartion page, Identity management page under User Administration etc.) are not displaying properly. The background is showing totally white and only the buttons and text are visible.
    Though these pages were working fine before.
    Is there any configuration change which is causing this?
    Any suggestion ??????

    Hi,
    SAP recommends to use fully qualified domain names, when using the portal.
    For example, to enter into the portal use "http://machine_name.company_name.com/irj/portal., instead of "http://machine_name/irj/portal". 
    Failing to do so may lead to inconsistency in communication on client side between the page and iViews.

  • 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.

  • Pictures and texts are not displayed properly

    Hello Apple users,
    I've the 15 inch Macbook Pro with retina display, running Mountain Lion. I have noticed that when I chat with my friends in Facebook, the texts in the chat window are not displayed properly. This also happens when flipping through photos that were uploaded in Facebook. Also, pictures are not displayed properly in other websites. For example, today I was reading the news in the Guardian when I noticed that the top bar and a picture weren't displayed properly. The top bar should have showed News, Sports, Comment, Culture, Pensions, etc. all in the same line. Also look at the photo titiled "Should building socities do buy-to-let?" I took a screenshot from the guardian and you can see the photo here: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0ByQ7VP0wjFM-U0ZIOXlwMm13Vnc/edit?usp=sharing
    Do you guys have any suggestions how can I fix these issues?
    Thanks for reading and your help

  • OLE Objects are not displayed properly-overlap characters and empty page

    I'm using CR4E 12 Runtime libraries to load and view reports that are created in CR designer  v10. Some of the OLE Objects (not all) are not displayed properly.
    1) A full page contains terms and conditions as ole object is not at all displayed and just shown as black image.
    2) Some data in a table (OLE Object) shown as overlapped characters.
    Any body know the reason and is there any workaround to solve this issue?
    Thankyou very much for your time.

    Your problem seems to be with the character encoding you are using for your text.  A quick google search for ColdFusion character encoding should turn up the answer.  In case you are interested in learning more:

    images are not displaying properly i.e Broken .they are not opening in any website even in facebook

    Hi Himanshu,
    Tools>Internet Options>Advanced tab, click the "Reset" button.
    Close all open IE windows and then start IE and try again.
    Post consumer questions about IE to http://answers.microsoft.com (Help>Online Support menu from IE.)... at the answers forum you have to select what version of windows and IE you are using with your question...
    which you did not stipulate here.
    You can also choose at answers your preferred language and receive an answer in your preferred language.
    Also include with your questions to answers, the FULL address of any websites you are having problems with... so that the support engineers can visit and test the web page...
    Just saying Facebook is not sufficient as when you say 'pictures' are not displaying...perhaps you mean 'video' pictures... also websites like Facebook have different addresses for different parts of the world.
    eg. http://facebook.com.au/ or http://youtube.com.au/nasa
    This forum is for questions from System Administrators who manage 100's of computers that use IE with IEAK and GPO.

  • My Social Media Icon are not displaying within FireFox

    My Social Media Icon are not displaying within FireFox. And all other browser your able to view Icons - For some reason is now displaying in FireFox.
    Can someone help me with this issue? I have alot of clients that view our website using firefox browser.
    Domain Name: ForemostFitness.com

    Do you use any extensions that block ads? That occurs to me because the service you're using for social icons (addthis) has "ad" in its name and perhaps they are getting filtered that way.
    To determine whether an extension is a likely culprit, you could disable that one temporarily, or you could disable them all by testing the page in Firefox's Safe Mode. That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled ''(Flash and other plugins still run)''
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any difference?

  • Windows 8.1 modern shortcut icons are not displayed in taskbar after domain join

    Hello,
    Like the title says: modern (metro) shortcut icons in taskbar are not displayed after domain join. There's just blank space where the icon should be for Store, OneDrive etc. Shortcuts work for classic and 3rd part applications.
    Shortcut icons work properly if I log in with local account. The applications work properly whether the icons are displayed or not for every user (local and domain).

    Hi,
    Since this issue only happened for domain account, I suggest you check whether there're some GPOs\logon scripts applied to the domain accounts which controls the taskbar icons.
    Have you tried to unpin the modern taskbar icons and re-pin the icons to the taskbar? What is the result?

  • I have two add-ons that are enabled AND working but they are their icons are not displaying.

    I have Firebug and Adblock-Plus on my Firefox browser that are not displaying their normal shortcut buttons next to the search bar of Firefox. They were displaying fine yesterday, now today they are not displaying at all. They are installed and enabled. There were no changes on my end (user end), that could explain this occurrence. No new addons installed. No new plugins. Any help would be grateful.

    I have Firebug and am on Ubuntu at present, so my options may differ slightly from Windows, and over time the Firebug options probably have changed.
    If you reset the toolbars to default settings by resetting localstore.rdf you may need to make some changes to recreate whatever you had before.
    I may display a full Firebug toolbar with keyboard key F12. That toolbar includes several display options from clicking the firebug icon. I also have Firebug showing as an option from
    * Tools -> WebDeveloper -> Firebug.
    If I use the customise toolbars option; for example from right clicking an empty space on a toolbar; the palette of icons includes one for Firebug that I may place where I like. If you try to create a custom toolbar remember it needs to be populated, if it has nothing on it it will not display.
    P.S.
    Presumably you are able to use Firebug, it is just an icon that you are missing ? is that correct ?

  • Ads are not displaying properly in Safari, v 4.0.5

    I am having an odd problem with display ads from our local newspaper not displaying properly on my Mac Pro in Safari. I suspect that the issue might be related to having had some AdBlock app on my system a few months ago. I removed the app and some ads display, but others are just a white block with nothing inside. Is there any way to figure out why the content doesn't load?
    The website is http://www.echopress.com
    The ads I'm having issues with are the 300x250 ads in the right 3rd column, located directly below the weather info and above the "marketplace" ads.
    Any ideas or troubleshooting tips?
    Thanks,
    Grady
    Oh, why do I wanna see em in the first place? I'm an advertiser on the site and would like to see my own ads load occasionally.

    Hey ho, Grady!
    I can see all the ads on the right,
    with the exception of the very top (first) box
    which has the header of "Weather Alerts).
    It's blank, and I'm assuming you have no alerts at the present.
    All the rest of the paid for ads show.
    So, what I would do is clear my Safari cache, history, and
    in Preferences>Security, clear all the cookies from that site.
    Hope this helps.
    If you need more info just holler.
    Let us know how you're doing, OK?

  • Smartforms - Chinees characters are not displayed properly

    Hi,
    The chineese characters are not displayed propery when logged in EN in the logon screen, but we are able to see Chineese characters when logged in with ZH - chineese in the logon screen. This is happening for Sales order and Purchase order and for Japan also we fee see the same issue.
    -Regards,
    Ganesh Prasanna.T

    Hi,
    It is a printer issue. The printer needs to be configured to support the Chinese chanracter set.
    Normally when we are able to view the chinese characters properly in the print preview but not properly displayed on the output it is surely a printer problem.
    This kind of problem we faced many times.
