Bluetooth icon disappeared from menu bar

Hi. For a while, my Bluetooth icon was moving around the menu bar and now it has disappeared. I have Bluetooth enabled, but the icon is missing. How do I get it back? Is there a way to customize the menu bar?
Thanks

Same experience here. For a while, my Bluetooth menu icon has been shifting around and now it has totally disappeared. Going to System preferences to click the bluetooth menu icon on and off doesn't help. I wonder which preference file we can delete to reset the menu icon positions and visibility.

Firefox loads, icon is on task bar but when clicked the graphics slide off to the right but don't fill the screen & when clicked again, falls back into the icon

Firefox, Thunderbird & Quicken were active when I loadad & ran a slot machine game. When I exited the game & clicked the icon to return Firefox to full screen, I could see the image flash off to the right side of my monitor screen and disappear. When I again clicked on the icon in the task bar, the reverse happened- the image flashed from the right down to the icon. When I hover the mouse pointer over the icon, the open screens show up with the red X to close but the same thing happens when I click on that box. The other two programs that were open while the game was active are working fine, only Firefox has been affected. I cannot open the program to access any of the menu items as I cannot get the screen image on the monitor. I did uninstall the program and reinstall a freshly downloaded copy I had to use IE, as I am now) but with the same results when I run it. I did chose to save my settings so if something has been changed there then that might be the problem.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Firefox always opens a new window when i click the icon on my task bar...this is new and I would like it to say in the same window How?

I have a firefox icon on my task bar. Before this latest install, I would click the icon and Firefox would come up directly. Now it opens another firefox window. I don't want this. How can I change it back?

Click on the spotlight icon in the top right of your screen (looks like a magnifying glass), type
Terminal
and press 'return'.
In the window that opens up, paste or type this exactly into the window
killall Finder; killall Dock
(that's case sensitive) and press 'return'.
You'll notice the Dock disappear for a second or two then return, as do any open Finder windows.
Test using Finder as normal. Same problem?

Lost my volume icon in the task bar and cant get it back.

On my Vista system, the volume/mute icon on my task bar has disappeared and can only be reloaded temporarily by going to control panel for each off and on.
Can someone please outline what the steps are to restore this icon. It does not go to task bar as other icons do.
Many thanks,
Bob

Need to keep Tray Icon on the task bar permanent

Hi everyone;
I wrote a Java program which creates an tray Icon on the taskbar and whenever the user clicks on the icon, a website on the default browser is open. When this program is executed, this icon is created and when the computer is rebooted, the icon is disappeared and next time I need to run the program again to create this icon. I'm guessing that this icon is disappeared because JVM is turned off.
I need to have this icon on the task bar every time that the computer turns on. I need somehow to automatically run my Java program when the computer turns on. I'm wondering if you know how to do this.
Thank you for your help in advance.

If you are under windows, you can put a link in the startup folder.

I have Firefox pinned to the Task bar in Windows 7. when I open firefox I get an extra firefox icon in my task bar while having firefox open. It used to show as being open on the icon that is pinned to the task bar

Why there is an icon in the task bar when Firefox is running?!

There is an icon in task bar, and some popup channels upon left-click.
I have been using Firefox for many years because it's CLEAN but this icon makes me feeling uncomfortable. I don't find the way to disable this icon in options or somewhere else.

The iTunes Icon on the task bar;
You need iTunes Preferences:
Edit>>Preferences>>Advanced tab.
Can you find that? There is a checkbox near the bottom: "Show iTunes icon in system tray".
The safe mode start: You need to press ctrl shift and then open iTunes, keep holding ctrl shift until iTunes opens.
Any program that you have that makes use of your iTunes library could potentially prevent iTunes closing as it has to be open in order for another program to access iTunes info.
Another thing that can cause problems is Bonjour. You can try stopping the bonjour service and then opening iTunes - then check if it closes.
The following article include instructions for stopping bonjour:

If you want a brute force way of looking for other things interfering with iTunes, try MSConfig:

There is a link to the XP version on the page if necessary.
This is a diagnostic method, not a solution.

Firefox 4 is not appearing in Task bar or some times it is Disappearing from task bar when i am minimising the window. so, i had to go to Task manager and find the icon.Its becoming big messy if tabs are not found , to switch programmes.

firefox icon is missing from "Task bar"when i am minimising the window

I am unwilling to attempt navigation away from these sites. The pop-ups that occur on the attempt to leave a site or to close the browser are exit traps offering incentive to stay.
Once upon a time, when the internet was less dangerous, I would be willing to close the exit pop-ups. Now, after twice being infected with malware trying to close the pop-ups, I now force close whichever browser I am using.
Recently, I clicked on the red X to close one pop-up, and it installed a trojan that I had to pay to be removed. When I clicked on 'Leave' in another exit pop, it didn't exit and it turned out I was giving permission to run a script file. Now that criminals have learned these exit pop-ups can be used to force a click action, the sites using them have become dangerous.
If I force the browser to close using Task manager, Please tell me how to stop FireFox from sending me directly back to the same site because it mistakenly believes it crashed when it did not. I forced it to close because I was on a site that had taken control of my browser and was not allowing me to leave the site.
No other browser sends me back to the potentially dangerous sites. I prefer Firefox, but the new version must have a setting that allows me to get safely away from a problem site?

Disappearing Dock & Task Bar Icons

I just installed OSX 6.8 on my MacBook Pro. Now some of the items in the dock no longer appear with their icons. The dock has a few blank spaces in it, but if you mouse over the blank space the identifying text appears. Same thing is true for the Task Bar that you get when you hit Command-Tab. Any ideas?

Are those items Apple applications or 3rd party apps you installed and perhaps moved to a custom location?
Do the dock icons still work or not?

I used to have task or shortcuts show up when I would right click on the FF Icon on the task bar. After installing 4.0 they are all gone. How do I get these back? or restore them to what they were?

Win 7 task bar has a Fire Fox Icon. Before installing FF 4.0 I could right click on the Icon and it would show short cuts to various sights, which when clicked on would open that sight in FF.
They are all gone now. What happened? Is there a way to get these back?

A few hidden preferences to check to make sure that the jump lists are enabled:
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# In the filter box type '''browser.taskbar.lists''' this should bring up a few preferences
# To enable all parts of the jump list, make sure the following preferences are set to '''true''', if they are not double-click to them to change their value
## browser.taskbar.lists.enabled
## browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled
## browser.taskbar.lists.recent.enabled
## browser.taskbar.lists.tasks.enabled
