Favourite icons gone

My kid decided to reorgazine our home screen and put all of her games on the top favourites bar. In the process, she sent our real favourites off screen to a mystery land. I cannot get the browser, email or the music to return, and I have restarted and did a hard quit with the power and volume up button. Mostly what we used the tablet for is now gone. I need ideas on how to get it back.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Move EVERY ICON into the top favourites bar then restart. That should bring them all back.
If it fails to bring them back, do a backup, then a Settings, Security, Security wipe. Restore your data, and reinstall your apps for free from My World.

  • Why is my iTunes icon gone from my phone?

    Why is my Itunes icon gone from my phone. I don't have it anymore.

    Check: Settings - General - Restrictions - iTunes = ???

  • HT1386 why won't my ipad charge from my computer - my iphone does! and where has my facetime and contacts icons gone?

    Why won't my ipad charge from my computer when my iphone does? also where have my facetime and contacts icons gone?

    A computer USB port does not provide enough power to charge and run the iPad at the same time but it will charge it if the iPad is turned off.  It will take about four times as long to charge than with the iPad charger.
    The Contacts icon may be inside a folder, such as Utilities.
    There is no Facetime icon.  Start a Facetime link from a contact.

  • Favorites icon gone from Oracle SQL Developer Help screen

    Favorites icon gone from Oracle SQL Developer 3.0 Help Center screen
    How do I get it back?
    In Oracle SQL Developer 3.0 I clicked
    Help->Table of Contents
    to bring ut the Help Center window.
    It the Help Center window I used to have a Favorites tab next
    to the Contents TAB on the left side of the window.
    I did an unpin some how and now I can't get the Favorites
    TAB back.
    On the right side there is a Star + icon that does
    Add to Favorites.
    I can add links to favorites but I have no way to go to these
    saved favorites anymore.
    How do I get the Favorites TAB/Icon back?
    Thanks

    Hi John,
    SQL Developer depends on JDeveloper code for the Help. After closing the Favorites tab I see no way to re-open it in the UI, so I imagine there may be a bug on the JDev side. Fortunately, there is a manual fix:
    In file product-preferences.xml
    In directory C:\Documents and Settings\<userid>\Application Data\SQL Developer\system3.0.04.34\o.sqldeveloper.11.1.2.4.34
    use Notepad to look for the lines like:
          <value n="helpDynamicLinksNavigatorLocation" v="3"/>
          <value n="helpFavoritesNavigatorLocation" v="0"/>
    Just change the value "0" to "2"Regards,
    Gary

  • After upgrading to iTunes Match Genius Icon Gone on iPhone

    After upgrading to iTunes Match Genius Icon Gone on iPhone
    So I upgrade and uploaded/matched all my songs to iTunes Match. Everything seems to be fine, except I noticed I don't have the genius functionality on my iPhone. Basically the little atom icon is missing. Does anyone have a solution for this problem.
    Thanks
    Chike

    This is what works for me.
    I do this once: I keep quite a bit of music loaded on my iPhone using the normal sync process with my Mac (via USB cable) prior to turning on iTunes Match (...let's me listen to at least some music even when disconnected from the net, like when on a plane).  And then I turn iTunes Match back on (and leave it turned on) and it gives me access to the rest of my music library from iCloud when I have network access (3G or Wifi) for normal listening using my whole library over Match.
    I start playing a song on my iPhone (one that doesn't have the iCloud icon)
    I click the home button (physical button on iPhone that closes the Music app)
    I then double click the home button (opens the task manager at the bottom)
    Quit Music (press/hold on the Music icon in the tray until the little red circle with an x appears to quit the app)
    Then restart Music (tap the Music icon on my iPhone home screeen)
    When the Music app restarts, it opens to the last song playing.  if it was one of the songs downloded to my iPhone, it has the litlle atomic symbol again and I can create a genius playlist from it.
    FYI: you can enable/disable iTunes Match on the iPhone without affecting songs loaded on your iPhone (even though it says it'll replace your iPhone library, the songs are still there if you enable/disable again).  Settings>>>Music>>>iTunes Match on/off.

  • No longer receive emails, all email icons gone!

    Hi all, how are you?
    I noticed 4 days ago that I stopped receiving emails from the 4 accounts I had set up on my Blackberry Torch 9800 (one official, 2 yahoo, 1 gmail). I could see the icons and send test emails but I wouldn't receive them on my phone. If I checked on a PC I would see the test email in my inbox, laughing at me. Here are the steps I've taken:
    1. A Google search of the problem said to resend service books, which I did from the phone. No change.
    2. Another Google search said to delete the CMIME and CICAL service books, re-add the emails and resend service books (from the phone). Now the email icons are all gone except the work one, even after re-adding all the addresses. The test emails I sent from the work email are sent, but I don't see them in either sent items or the inbox on a PC. In the setup screen, it says "Email accounts (1)" but when I open it, all 4 accounts I added are showing. I have also resent the service books for all the emails several times. Sometimes the message is "Successful", sometimes it says that it could not complete the request. I also noticed that the CICAL and CMIME service books did not come back for any of the accounts.
    Of course all these steps are generously peppered with battery pulls.
    My phone has also become sluggish and laggy, which it wasn't before.
    Please can anyone help with this?

    Hey raufikat,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
    If the service books are not updating successfully there may be an issue with your account/BlackBerry data services. I would suggest contacting your service provider for further investigation. If they are unable to resolve the issue request to have this issue escalated to BlackBerry Technical support for further trouble shooting.
    Let us know if you have any question.
    Thanks.

  • Podcasts won't sync to ipod; podcast icon gone

    I have been happily downloading podcasts to Itunes and syncing them to my ipod nano 4th generation for months. Suddenly, after syncing two podcasts (Itunes said successfully), there were no podcasts on the nano and when I connected it again, the podcast icon under the device menu for the nano on Itunes was gone.
    I have reset and restored the nano, reloaded all the songs, unsubscribed to the podcasts and resubscribed. Now when I try and sync a podcast, I receive the message that the ipod could not be synced, because the required disk could not be found. What the heck happened?

    I'm having a similar problem in that I cannot a way to keep podcasts on my iPod. Every time I sync my iPod, iTunes automatically removes all episodes that I've already listened to, even if I want to keep them and they are still present in my iTunes library on the computer.
    I think this is a different problem!
    I've already checked the option in "Settings" that says keep "all episodes." But the iPod doesn't keep all episodes, only iTunes.
    I assume you mean the settings _in iTunes_ for iTunes. To control what stays on your iPod, connect the iPod to iTunes and click on the device when it shows up in iTunes. You should see the Summary pane. Just along from there is the Podcasts pane. Select that and on this pane you can select *Keep all epsiodes* (on the iPod). Make your choice and Sync again to activate the change. If you have problems with this, post again.

  • System settings icon gone

    My system settings icon is gone from my first home page.  Any way to get it back without doing a system restore?  Thanks.

    - Try a reset, nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Have you tried using the Spotlight search feature to try tofind it.  It is likely somewhere andyy just can't find it since theSynstem app can't be deleted or hidden.
    - Reset the screen layout: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Screen Layout.

  • Color icons gone in Dreamweaver CC (version 13)

    Hi.
    Whay are the color icons in Dreamweaver CC (version 13 mac) gone? Very bad
    Much harder to see if i'm connected to remote site is one very frustrating thing.
    I managed to replace some of the icons with versions from DW6. But many are still missing.
    Does anyone have a good tip for replacing all of them?
    Regards
    Olle

    Well ... I know they where removed ... but I'm missing them
    The bottom of the thread in that link leads to this statment from Adobe
    http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/2012/10/dreamweaver-creative-cloud-update-12-1-faqs.htm l
    "To help you focus on the page and avoid distraction from colorful elements in the user interface, color options for Insert icons have been deprecated."
    Ha ha ... so I need help focus on the page and not get distracted by color icons
    I think it would be good to have an option to choose color or gray. Like it was before.
    It's not helping me to focus on the page with only gray icons. What a stupid thing to say ...
    I think a little color makes things look better (and easier to know if i'm connected to the server or not).
    Witch one below stands out the most?
    Regards

  • Bluetooth icon GONE

    My wireless Mouse stopped working - figured it was the mouse so grabbed another wireless and it would not find it either.  Restarted the computer and then went to 'Mouse' and it says to connect USB mouse.  Finally (after looking at my iMac preferences) figured out that the Bluetooth icon, which is suppose to be in the "Internet & Wireless" area of the System Preferences is gone on my laptop.  Any suggestions?  Gayle

    Problem solved!  After reading and reading - I finally posted my question and then found a similar discussion, shut my laptop off, instead of restarting - started it up again and there was my icon!  Whew!

  • How to make my website logo show as the new Yosemite favourites icon?

    I've been searching high and low for the answer to this question so I hope someone maybe able to help me.
    When you click in the address bar in safari using Yosemite you get the icons from the websites that you have as a favourite.
    Some, like Facebook have their logo automatically appear. Others, including my website have not shown up.
    I have added a photo to help explain what I mean.
    As you can see ART55 and Twitter have the safari icon. While the others show their logo.
    How do I get my website to show its logo as the icon?
    Any help would be very much appreciated.
    Kind regards

    You need to setup an Apple touch icon for your website so Safari can use it.

  • Macbook date & time settings icon gone

    I have a ~4 year old Macbook, 2.2 Intel Core 2 running OS/X 10.5.8. Several months ago, I went to "Open Date & Time..." by clicking on my clock. I click on it and nothing occurs. I went to my System Preferences to access via the "Date & Time" icon. The icon is gone.
    I have been unable to find an analogous sitiation on the internet, in speaking with Mac representatives, or from my university's tech support department. Has anyone experienced this issue? What of the disappearing icon (I have never seen a system preference/control panel icon simply disappear...)? Any ideas?

    Open System Preferences, click on the 'View' menu and select 'Customize'.  You will see all the icons available within System Preferences but with checkmarks next to them.  If Date & Time is there then it will not have the checkmark.  Check it, then click on the 'Done' button at the top.

  • "settings" icon gone :(

    Hi there
    I updated my iPhone 3GS with IOS4 a couple of days ago and yesteday I noticed that my "settings" icon was gone. Completely disappeared.
    I think it was something about the folders...
    Please help me, it's annoying to go to the spotlight and then type "settings"
    Thanks

    Welcome to the discussions,
    if you can find it using spotlight, it must be on your device somewhere, check all the pages and if you're using iOS4, look inside the folders as well. If all of your pages are used, try to delete a few apps to make the settings app visible again.
