CINNAMON:Icons return to default when exiting session or shutting down

I'm experiencing this issue: a few seconds before closing the session or shutting down, icons go back to default.
Do you know how to solve this problem?

I'm using Cinnamon, I set my icons using the Theme settings menu and by "default" I mean Adwaita, which is the default icon theme in Cinnamon, I suppose.
I tried to create a cache file for the icons, it didn't change anything.

Why do the bookmark icons return to default when i clear history?

Why do the bookmark icons return to default (the blue bubbles) when i clear history? This is using os x mavericks.
OS X Snow Leopard did not do this. It retained the site icon next to my bookmarks.

The webpageicons database may be corrupted. It can happen.
Quit Safari.
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Safari/WebpageIcons.db
Click Go then move the WebpageIcons.db file to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari. It may take a day or two for webpageicons to re populate.

v 3.6.13 - what has become of 'Restore previous session'? I've lost track of many topics in tags I had open when I had to shut down in advance of a power down by the electricity co. for day-long maintenence work in my area. Being able to quickly close all tags, knowing one can recover them later is invaluable.

Mail is open but it is frozen, being this the reason why you cannot open the Mail window. Press Alt, Command and Esc keys or go to  > Force Quit, select Mail and force quit it. Finally, you will be able to turn off or restart the MacBook

If you are playing music from the computer to your iPad using Home Sharing your computer must be on.

When I tried to shut down my IPad( by sliding the red bar) the spinning gear started spinning and it won't shut down. The gear has been spinning for 18 hrs now. What is causing this and how can it be fixed?

When I tried to shut down my other Ipad(by sliding the red bar) the gear symbol started spinning but it won't shut down--the gear is still spinning 18 hrs later.

Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

That virus checker will be interfering with everything you do, I would recommend removing it straight away.
App cleaner is a free utility that will remove all of the library files related to the virus checker: http://www.freemacsoft.net/appcleaner/
Also, by starting up in Verbose mode, you will be able to see what is happening when you start up/shut down: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1492

The icon on the display when i turn up or down or off the sound it doesn't show up

I don't know if this is the right topic for my problem...
I have a pavilion dv6-3299en Rossignol. I uninstalled some extra features and then i had a very small problem.
It;s not much but I'd like it to be solved.
When i turn up or down the sound or turn it off by pressing the buttons, there was an icon, an image with the level of the sound that used to appear, now it doesn't.
Same thing when the sound is off, it doesn't show any more an image with a red line... I hope you understand what i'm talking about.
With mousepad no problem, when i doubleclick the up and left corner, an image appears which shows a red line over it when it's offor nothing when it's on.
Hope you can help me. It's nothing important but it's usefull.

Hi Konstantina,
That could well be the problem; try the following.
Download and install HP MediaSmart Music on the link below.
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp51001-51500/sp51027.exe
When the installation has completed, restart the notebook and then re-install HP MediaSmart SmartMenu again.
HP MediaSmart SmartMenu
Again, after this installation, restart the notebook and see if the volume OSD has re-appeared.

Firefox is starting up on its own. I don't want it to because sometimes I don't need it, and when I go to shut down, computer won't let me because Firefox is running and I didn't know it. What to do?

I used to be in control of whether or not Firefox would load for any particular session on my computer. Now, probably after some update I got in the recent past, Firefox has a mind of its own. It opens every time I turn on my computer. There are times I don't want to use any browser, including Firefox. For example, sometimes I just want to look at my mail. Don't have time for anything else, but my computer won't let me shut it down. Why? Firefox sneaked in. So I have to find it and close it before I can shut down the computer.
HELP!!! How can I stop Firefox from automatically loading?
Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
First, when you are going to turn off or restart your Mac, you will see a box called "Reopen windows when logging back in" in the shutdown or restart window. Untick this box and see if the App Store opens automatically in the next startup.
If it starts, open System Preferences > Users and Groups > Login Items, and see if the App Store shows up. If so, remove it from this list

MacBook shuts down when sleep, asks to shut down, screensaver changes

Hello. My MacBook is having all sorts of problems and they just started occuring recently.
1. It shuts down when it's 'sleeping'. When I open it, I have to press the button to turn it back on. Sometimes it wouldn't reboot and the log in page would pop up, but rarely.
2. While I'm using my macbook, a window would ask me if I want to 'shut down, restart, sleep, cancel'. Or something like that. It would do this every few minutes.
3. I noticed that my screensaver would go back to Flurry/default.
Could this be a battery issue? I noticed that it says 'replace soon'. I will definitely go to a genius bar, but I'm too busy right now with school I don't know when I can make a trip to the nearest Apple store.

You can get a new battery fairly cheap on eBay if you have the Early 2008 MacBook with the easily removable battery.

MBP suddenly shuts down when using the superdriveP shuts down when u

Randomly my husband:s MBP shuts down when using the super drive. What could be the cause of this?
Appreciatte your Help

Yeah, I hope it is just a firmware-problem. AND that Nokia will release an update soon. The version on my phone now is 021.013, and it is from July. A firmware update is long overdue now, especially after all the other problems reported with this phone. And btw I have turned the phone on and off several times without this helping to fix the radio-issue...
I guess I will have to return the phone soon, if Nokia is unable to release a fixed firmware.

When i try to shut down my iphone it just restarts itself

I just accidentally dropped the phone in a cooler full of water pulled it out right away and took it out of its rubber cover and wiped it all off... its working fine except the occasional message pops up: "this accessory is not made to work with iphone..."
so now i figure i would turn it off and let it dry out over night... when i go to shut it down it goes through all the motions and shuts down - a few moments later the apple icon pops up and it restarts. i cant get it to shut off.
what should i do? should i take the battery out? its going to run out of power pretty soon and i am not plugging it in until its dry.
what should i do??
thanks.

Welcome to the discussions,
some people with water damage put their phone in a sealed bag of rice for a couple of days to take out the moisture. You can't exchange the battery, it's build in. If this does not help, you'll have to get your phone serviced.
