Displaced icon and missing folder

Hi
i know this sounds really weird but i am having a little trouble with my laptop.
after i did a disk cleanup, my hiberation icon went missing and i can't seem to locate it.
Also, i can't seem to locate my temporary folder to access the files that i downloaded.
Can anyone provide me the pathway on how to get to my folder and icon?
Pls help me?
Thank you
Yours Sincerely
Melissa

Displaced icon mention it's your hibernate icon ?
If your Hibernate feature disable, hibernate icon will not shown in your shutdown menu/other.
You have to enable this feature by going control panel, under Power Option properties, than u can see tabs for hibernate, please enable in order to function.
The temporary folder i thing we not very concerned it because it's manage by Windows it's, but we can always clear the temporary file from time to time when necessary or u may set it to auto clean process.
Hope this can solve your displaced icon.
For the downloaded file location missing ?? or cannot find it, before you save as file from download, please it properly see where u save. it's depend what browser or from where u download. usually u can check on your c:\temp\ ??? or C:\Documents and Settings\LocalService\Local Settings\Temp ?? C:\Documents and Settings\yourname\Local Settings\Temp ??? C:\WINDOWS\Temp ? some browser are have option for you to locate to folder you want to put.

TuneAid and missing folder

Greetings
I just reformatted my hard drive, and decided to reinstall most of the software manually, although I have a cloned backup (I have the time to do it, and I want to prune my software inventory down, I have tons of old stuff laying around). I reinstalled TuneAid and it will not launch. A portion of the crash log reads:
Library not loaded: /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileDevice.framework/Versions/A/MobileDevic e
This MobileDevice.framework folder was on my backup. What do I need to install / reinstall or configure to get it back?. I tried applying the 10.4.11 combo updater again, but that didn't do it.
The only Mac application I can think of that I updated to a newer version than what's on my cloned drive was iTunes from 7.6 to 7.7.1. — did the update delete it or am I overlooking something else?
Can I just copy the MobileDevice.framework folder over?

I have a DVD folder (VOB files)that was rip for me. They play correctly though it has the minus icon and the folder empty and I can't get permission to retrieve my home videos files .

I have a DVD folder (VOB files) that was rip for me form my VSH. The DVD play correctly though it has the minus icon on the folder and appears to be empty and I can't get permission to retrieve my home videos files .

You're not dealing with your typical DVD-Video data structure with a SONATA_VOLUME. This type of data structure is designed to prevent someone from extracting the data and it's very effective at doing so. You've probably already found that the applications that allow you to copy, extract and convert the standard DVD-Video data structure (a "VIDEO_TS" volume) will not work with a SONATA_VOLUME (apps like Toast, MactheRipper and Handbrake).
While making a digital copy is pretty much not an option with a SONATA_VOLUME, capturing the video and sound via an analog to digital capture usually works just fine. Of course, that's not nearly as simple as popping the disc into your computer and a drag and drop or just clicking "convert" or "extract" and waiting for the copy or conversion to finish.
Do you have any video hardware for capturing analog video? A MiniDV camcorder will do the trick if your Mac has a FireWire port. You'll also need video capture software. I'd recommend a version of iMovie that supports DV-NTSC, Final Cut Express or Final Cut Pro.
My Sony DVD recorder creates SONATA_VOLUMES while my Panasonic DVD recorder creates VIDEO_TS folders. The Sony is unplugged and sitting in the corner.

Will Upgrade from Tiger fix "Prohibited sign" and "Missing Folder" symbols.

Recently I have been having the problem on start up an dI haven't since been able to boot up properly in months...
So, I was wondering if upgrading to Leopard would fix the problem or is it time to replace in general.

There are never any guarantees, but the "missing folder" symbol means your existing installation is non-operational. The way to fix that is to erase the drive and reinstall OS X. Assuming there are no hardware problems your computer should return to normal.

When I use under file save page as a desktop icon firefox downloads 2 a icon and a folder, how do I get rid of the folder and just keep the icon like in I.E.

I'm just trying to save my favorite website short cut icon to the desktop instead of using bookmarks for everything. In I.E. you have the option to save to desktop your favorite website and you only get a shortcut icon. but in Firefox if you save your website to your desktop you get both the website icon but also a folder. but if I try to remove or delete the folder it removes the icon also. how in Firefox can I get just a shortcut icon for favorite website but without the folder.

Hi Panamark,
The problem has been resolved for me. I am a little fuzzy on how it got fixed.
I only have 3G, so I think I went to the library to use wi-fi.
I think I just deleted the stuck apps, and the downloaded them again. You do not have to pay again when you download a previously purchased app.
It is now August, and fortunately I have not had any stuck apps lately.
As you may already know, you cannot download an app over 20 MB via 3G.
I have the Kindle app also. No new updates lately. I only bought one thing using Kindle. It was a guide to iPad that was only $1.99 or so, but it did not really have anything that cannot be found in normal free Apple guide.
I have borrowed an ebook from the library using Overdrive app. You can choose the ebook version from Kindle.
I don't have any weather apps.
Let me know what happened when you get the chance.

Firefox isn't finishing install on mac - creates blank icon in apps folder

I am installing Firefox on a Mac Book Pro. I downloaded it and installed following the directions. Then the box opened that shows the icon and the apps folder. I dragged the icon to the apps folder like it said and then ejected like it said to. But then when I go to applications to open Firefox, the icon fox doesn't show. Just a blank page. When I click on it, it opens that box that shows the fox icon and apps folder again, as well as the disk image, as if it never ejected. I've tried reinstalling and nothing works. What do I do? I really don't want to have to use Safari. :/
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== today when installing Firefox ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_3; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.21.11 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.4 Safari/531.21.10

Open the DMG file and drag to Firefox program to the application folder on your hard drive.
You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but drag it out of the DMG folder instead.

I just replaced the power supply in my Intel imac and now the screen is really really dark and I see the missing folder icon, what do I do?

The power supply in my Intel iMac went out (and smelled pretty burned) so I replced it and now when I start it up the display is so dark I can hardly see it and it shows the missing folder icon. Is it the inverter? Or if shine a flashlight on it and re-install the OS will changing the display settings maybe fix it?

Thanks for ur quick reply to my problem. I tried all of that with no results... I did notice tho that the lights next to and above my caps lock key and my num lk key are now flashing. They flash in unison three times then there is a two second pause then they flash three more times and this repeats. They may have been doing this before I tried this solution but I did not take notice until now... I was also wondering how I am supposed to know, after pressing f10 to enter bios, how I can tell if my new drive is being detected when my monitor will not function? Was pressing f10 supposed to possibly make the monitor turn on? In a last ditch effort to try and further identify the problem, I re installed my old drive. Before replacing it my computer would begin to boot then display a hard error that would not allow me to continue booting and run Windows. My display would still work but I could not run Windows. After re installing the drive the monitor will not turn on. I'm beginning to think that I have a bad monitor. Is there a way of testing this with out buying one? Where does the monitor connect to the mother board? I wonder if maybe its been jarred loose, although I highly doubt it, it may still be worth looking at. Thanks again for your advice.

App-v 5.0 sp3 Publish application icons/ shourtcut missed on 2nd time logon on terminal server 2012 r2 with roaming profile with folder redirection

1. I updated app-v 5.0 sp3 environment on 2012 R2. Roaming profile users with folder redirection logon fine at first time applications icons available but at 2nd logon applicaitons icons are missed while packages are available. we are using existing
roaming profiles with folder redirection which are running in current environment through APP-V 4.6 2008 R2. Please suggest work around to resolve this issue.
2. TS Nodes of 2008 R2 with App-v 4.6 running fine on Microsoft 2012 private cloud but we are facing performance issue (stuck, slow logon, slow performance etc) when we are moving in new 2012 R2 private cloud. SAP, SCSM and other sevices are running
fine, please provide solution.
Thanks

1.) What are you doing with the App-V Icon path? e.g. %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\AppV\Client\Integration\<GUID>\Root\AppVClientUX.exe.0.ico ?
I guess you could workaround it with deploying the icons to a central location and then pointing to the icon out on a central share. Or put the icons in a machine location...I haven't had this issue but that's just off the top of my head.
2.) I have not used App-V 4.6 in an environment like yours BUT would pre-caching the applications be possible? Any chance you'll be moving those apps into App-V 5.0 soon?

My music app icon is missing from my home screen and I have to go through the search to find and use it. How do I get the icon back on my home screen

(IOS 7 update trouble) My music app icon is missing from my home screen and I have to go through the search to find and use it. How do I get the icon back on my home screen

Find which screen, folder it was moved to, and hold down the icon until the icons start shaking. Then drag it to the left or right edge of the screen, and it will allow you to move it to which ever screen you want it. When you have it there, tap the Home button to stop the icons form shaking.
Or do what hannahsage said above.

Mail Icon is missing, and unable to open from Applications. (Mail 3.6 is not supported is the error message) I am on Lion OSX 10.7.3.

I closed the mail folder when I did a software update. This morning, the mail icon is missing, and am not able to open from applications, or find it anyware in the toolbar. Error message says that Mail 3.6 is not supported by OSX Lion 10.7.3

Xcode 4.x cannot be installed on Snow Leopard. You need a 3.x. So if that is what you used then yes, you need to install lion. If connect.apple.com still alows registration or logins using an existing appleid then you could download the last xcode 3.2.6 for free.

B-tree catalog error, missing folder icons, item in use errors - Related?

Hi,
I have a B&WG3 running 10.3.9 and two hard drives. I can boot from
one drive into OS 9.2.X. The other drive is also bootable into 10.3.9, and
is partitioned. There are 25 Gigs free on the partition containing 10.3.9.
I went to update to 10.4 and could not (yes, it is the retail version -
black disk). I found there are some
problems with the b-tree catalog and a missing thread record. fsck in single-user
mode (-f) cannot repair the catalog problem, nor does the Apple disk repair utility.
I have not yet tried a third-party program such as disk warrior or tech tool pro.
Am currently backing up datafiles to Lacie external firewire hard drive.
Computer operation seems normal.
Just after the 10.4 installation failure, indicating failing to repair the b-tree catalog (extent check seemed OK), I noticed that some folder icons went
missing and and the directory creation dates associated with those directories are bogus (December 31, 1903). If I move the items to the trash - I get the error that the items are in use (they are not in
use according to activity monitor and are all related Arcsoft digital camera/imaging programs). Trash cannot be emptied even when done from UNIX prompt as sudo whether typing the path name directly or by dragging the contents of the trash into the terminal window. Also I cannot
rm -r directoryname (directories are not empty - although they take up 0kb space and no
files are visible either from the GUI or from a terminal window). **I really don't know that
much about how to work in UNIX**
Are these problems related?

Hi,
Just to update, I ran through a couple of iterations of repair with TechToolPro which
seemed to fix the "keys out of order" problem, but created/left other issues. However,
it fixed things enough to run the Apple Disk Utility. Finally things "appear" OK. Installed 10.4 without a hitch, things still seem OK.
Did find a new mystery folder that wasn't there before and was appearing/disappearing
after running TTP, but before running the Apple utility. After running the Apple utility,
the folder is a constant.
The directory name is:
-1010759277
containing the file
keyedobjects.nhb
(Yes, that's nhb, not nib). Does anyone know what it is?
Does anyone know if it is safe to dump it?
% ls:
-1010759277 TheVolumeSettingsFolder mach
Applications Users mach.sym
Desktop DB Volumes mach_kernel
Desktop DF automount opt
Desktop Folder bin private
Library cores sbin
Network dev tmp

Sisabled sound and missing sound icon..............!!!!

so noticed a few months back that my sound icon was missing which i didn't care. Today i decided to see if i could solve the issue so i found this advice that i found here.
Locate this file: com.apple.preferencepanes.cache
It's here: /Users/Library/Caches Drag that file from the Cache folder to the Trash, empty the Trash and reboot. Launch System Preferences and see if the Sound icon has returned.
Well, i'm still with out my sound icon and now seems like my sound is disable. when i press the sound buttons in the keyboard it show the speaker with all the bars(full sound) and underneath is O with a / crossing it. help anyone?

Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this file to the Desktop.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
Reboot.

Missing: Airport Icon and networks

Hi Everyone,
I'm having a very strange problem with my Macbook Pro. The other day I noticed that the Airport icon was missing from my finder bar. I went to pref, made sure the box was check but the icon is still not showing up. It was nothing but anoying at first but now I cannot connect to any networks, open or secure.
Has anyone seen anything like this before? Any help would be great.
Thanks, Tim

Hi,
I've had this happen on one of our school portables and it took me a while to figure out that one of the students had clicked on the icon, gone down to "Open Internet Connect..." and take the checkmark out of "show airport status in menu bar".
So of course, you can't get to Internet Connect following the same path so look in your applications folder and find it there. Open it and put the checkmark back in.

ITunes update removes quicklaunch icons and creates new folder each time

Everytime I install an iTunes update, it removes my quicklaunch icon and creates a new start menu folder. I keep the iTunes start menu folder in a 'Media' subfolder (to keep things organized), but each time I update iTunes on each of my computers it creates a new iTunes folder in the main start menu. Any way to make it stop doing this? Since I work on multiple machines, it can be really irritating to have to redo icons and move folders each time.
Working on PCs (Dell work laptops) running Windows 7.
Thanks!

Unfortunately it won't go into disk mode. Even tried the "put your ipod on a flat surface" trick. I'm wondering if the battery hasn't stopped holding a charge. But it seems the symptoms would be more like a constant battery icon. Instead I'm getting the sad face everytime I try to put it in disk mode or reset. Ideas? Throw ipod against wall? Blow on it like old-school Nintendo cartridges?
Oh, and yes, it is Windows formatted.
Any and all help would be appreciated.
