Firefox Icon does not appear in the top left corner of the Browser on a Mac Desktop

I have an Intel iMac with OSX version 10.6.7. I downloaded Firefox 4.0 and do not have the Firefox icon in the upper left hand corner of the browser. It appears on my Windows 7 machine but not my Mac.

You get the orange Firefox menu button if the menu bar is hidden.

Recently when I install apps, the icon does not appear on the menu screen, also, it shows that it is downloading at the app store and when complete, I can not open it or reinstall it. Has happened on the last 4 free apps. Help Please

Reset your iPad. Press and hold both the power and home buttons for 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till you iPad starts on it's own. Now try and download an app.

Bootcamp disk icon does not appear in the System Preferences/Startup Disk. Any help ideas ?

Everything works fine but the Bootcamp disk icon does not appear in the System Preferences/Startup Disk.
When I am in Win7 I am easily rebooting my iMac by right-clicking on the Bootcamp icon.
When I am in Mac OS I wish to do same but that Bootcamp icon does not appear. Everytime I am restarting my iMac and pressing on the Option key to select the Windows disk.
Does anyone have an idea how to adjust to bring the Bootcamp icon to the Startup Disk panel ?

Use BootChamp instead; perhaps you have an NTFS 3rd party driver installed and has its own control panel.

After installing an App, the icon does not appear on the desktop?

After installing an App, the icon does not appear on the desktop? Where would I find it?

Some people have found that an app (usually iBooks for some reason) hasn't appeared on a homescreen until after the iPad has been reset and has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
Also depending on what the app is have you got an age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it ?

Have a 10.6.8 mac and the icloud icon does not appear on the system preferences

Hello,
I have a 10.6.8 mac and the icloud icon does not appear on the system preference, even if I'ved upgraded the software.
Renee

The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mavericks preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is now non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mavericks, provided it meets the requirements.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price (though it's reported to have been removed from sale in some countries so may well cease to be available generally) but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks (10.9.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
The requirements for Mountain Lion and Mavericks are:
OS X v10.6.8 or later
2GB of memory
8GB of available space
and the supported models are:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

After installing FF 6.02 on Windows 7, the icon does not appear on the desktop and the program does not appear in the All Programs menu

I just received a new laptop running windows 7 home premium and wanted to install Firefox on it. I tried to install the most recent version. When i installed 6.0.2, the icon did not appear on my desktop (it was a hidden file in my desktop folder) and the program group does not appear in the start menu's All Programs list. The program *does* run though, at least it did a few times. This happened whether i installed as administrator or not. Installing firefox 3.6.22, though, DID create the program group and desktop icon, and upgrading from there removed them again. installing other programs (e.g. vlc, trillian, etc.) did not cause this behavior. I also tried this both with and without McAfee's realtime protection running.

Icon does not appear in the image thumbnail in Bridge

After processing a camera raw file using the Camera Raw plug-in, an icon does not appera in the image thumbnail in Bridge. Using raw plug-in created april 19 2007 in windows vista. The same CS2 program does create the icon on another computer using Windoes XP. Jim

Please check your top toolbar left side, you should see a small arrow icon to expend the toolbar, located near the Tools option
(Ignore the location side in the sample picture, it should be the opposite for your language )
If you cannot locate the HP Smart Web Printing there either, Click Tools > Manage Addons
and make sure the HP Smart Web Printing addon is enabled,

With firefox not running, I cannot upgrade as my computer thinks it is still running. Firefox.exe does not appear in the task manager.

I seem to be able to start Firefox only once after I reboot my computer. After that it will not start. I tried upgrading the software using Internet Explorer to get the upgrade file. The installation failed when the computer said I needed to close Firefox to install the upgrade. The task manager didn't show firefox on the list as one of the processes and it wasn't running anywhere on my machine.

Jim Harris:
Hanging at exit is most frequently caused by an Extension or a Plugin.
'''Kill Application'''
In Task Manager, does firefox.exe show in the '''Processes''' tab?
See: [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Kill_application Kill Application]
'''Causes and solutions for Firefox hanging at exit:'''
[[Firefox hangs]]
[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_hangs#Hang_at_exit Firefox hangs at exit]
[[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]
'''Safe Mode'''
You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes '''before''' starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
See:
'''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
'''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
'''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling '''one at a time''' until the problem reappears. '''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change''' via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

Found 0 results for clicking my firefox icon does not bring up the internet. My internet explorer icon does work. in English

problem started when I clicked to install latest
firfox version.
Didn't like it because it defaults to Yahoo and lacks the IMAGE, MAPS, VIDEO etc. bar.
Did a system restor to get back to my original firefox version.
Firefox-Icon will no longer bring up internet.
I CAN connect to internet with my explorer icon.

Hit the '''Alt''' key to show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar & Navigation bar, so they have a check-mark.

I have tried to load Profile Manager but the icon does not appear on the navigation bar

I have created a profile in Profile Manager but when I click on 'Start Firefox' there is no icon shown. I Firefox is closed and I click on the icon on my desktop to open it, before it opens I get the 'Firefox - Choose User Profile'.

I want to sync mail on a few computers but Firefox sync does not appear in the tools menu. Do I need to download and install syncing tool? Thanx

Also, bear in mind, please that at home I use Mac and in the office Win 7. I'd like to be able to sync my emails on both computers and my netbook which I use when travelling.
Thanx
Dean

Firefox doesn't do email, thus Firefox Sync has no features for email.
If you are accessing your email thru Firefox, you are using web mail. By default most email portals keep your email until you delete it. You should be able to access your email from anywhere - not device dependent.

IDVD Icon does not appear in the dock and iDVD does not start.

I have been trying to solve the above problem. I have archived and installed OSX upto 10.4.9 and reinstalled iLife 06 and have had no success in getting iDVD to run. All I see in the dock is an icon saying "application".
Would welcome some suggestions - will I have do a total reinstall? Hope not.
Many thanks.
Chris Fox[

Welcome to the forums.
If you go to the Applications folder, what happens if you try to start iDVD directly? Your Quicktime also needs to be updated to be compatible with iLife6 (beware though that you'll lose your Pro capabilities if you're jumping from QT6 to 7).

HT204400 The AppleTV icon does not appear on the menu on my iMac. I am running Yosemite and have purchased the latest AppleTv and upgraded the software.

Trying to get my TV to mirror my iMac Screen. Have Yosemite 10.10 , purchased the latest AppleTv and upgrade the software. Both are connected to my network through an Ethernet connection and Wi-Fi. Why cannot see the icon and connect to Apple TV?

Hi tallsweet,
The article linked below is a great resource for troubleshooting Airplay Mirroring issues, like the one that you’ve described where your iMac isn’t showing the Airplay icon.
