  • The volume control icon has disappered from the task bar.

     A few days ago I turned on my pc and found the volume control icon that is normally showing on the bottom task bar, had dissappeared?  I have explored every option (hidden icons etc.) but the icon does not exist anywhere.  Can you help?

    The app is not gone, it is impossible to remove it from the device.
    Check all home screens and folders.
    If you are unable to find it, Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.
    As a last resort, restore from backup.

    Actually, that's called downgrading. Some icons are placed in the add-ons bar
    by default. Why the powers-that-be removed it is something that none of us have
    been able to figure out. Go to the
    '''''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ Mozilla Add-ons Web Page]'''''
    (There’s a lot of good stuff here).
    What you want to do is search for what you want. Many of us are now using
    '''''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ Classic Theme Restorer (Customize Australis)]'''''<BR>
    Restore squared tabs, appmenu, add-ons bar, small button view and more on Australis UI (Windows/MacOSX/Linux + Fx 29+).

  • My delete icon has disappeared from voicemail screen.  how do I get it back

    my delete icon has disappeared from the voicemail page. I can not delete any voicemails now.  how can I get the delete icon back?

    First of all do you have a CD/DVD in the drive?   The icon is only shown on the desktop when there is a CD/DVD in the drive.
    If you have a CD/DVD in there, then check that CD/DVDs, and iPods is ticked in Finder/Preferences/General.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    There appears to be a large increase in this type of problem at this time, it seems that that there is a problem at Apple's end, but I couldn't at all be sure.
    There are no issues being reported at Apple’s System Status page, but this status may yet be updated and it may be you need to try again a little later.
    This isn't affecting me here in the UK, where exactly are you.
    So far I have noted users in the following locations having similar problems:
    USA
    If this is a problem at Apple’s end, it rarely happens, however when it does only Apple can fix it. When this has occurred previously it has usually been resolved in a few hours or slightly more.

  • The The Economist icon has disappeared from my iPad. The App store tells that I am have already downloaded   What to do to get it back.

    the The Economist icon has disappeared from my iPad. The App store tells that I am have already downloaded  Will not download again.  How do I get my icon back.

    Well, App Store is system app. It might have been moved accidentally to a folder. You might be having an idea of Spotlight search when you swipe the home screen to the left most section, you can search "App Store" and you have the icon of the App Store.
    You can try to reset home screen layout by going to settings - general - reset - reset home screen layout
    Keep in mind, this will reset all the app folders you've created in the home screen.
    If it still doesn't appear, you might have accidentally turned the switch ON to disable App Store in restrictions.
    Can be accessed by going to settings - general - restrictions - (Enter passcode if asked) - Turn on the Installing Apps and Deleting Apps switches to ON
    Let me know if this helps you out

  • My app store icon has disappeared from my i-pod, how do i get it back?

    my app store icon has disappeared from my i-pod touch, does any one know how to get it back

    - Try using the Spotlig search. Maybe yu just can't find it.
    - Go to Settings>General>Restrictions. Maybe it is hidden by setting a restriction for it.
    - Do a reset. Nothing is lost.
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • The buy icon has disappeared from my itunes store. How can I purchase songs??

    The buy icon has disappeared from my itunes store...how can I purchase songs??

    The Youtube app was removed by Apple in iOS6.  You can use either the iPhone app from Youtube (free in the app store, but you've got to set it at 2x), or go to www.youtube.com in a Safari web browser.  You can also add the web page to your Home Screen using the share feature.  It will then operate just like an app.

    Get an external hard drive, some good ones that I like are the OWC, http://www.macsales.com Mercury Elite Pro drives...they are very good and reasonably priced.
    Get the drive, connect via USB or FireWire, then use Disk Utility to format the new drive as Mac OS X Extended (Journaled), and then use Disk Utility to Restore the current drive to the new drive.  Restore actually clones the drive so you will have a bootable backup on the external drive.
    After you have formatted and named the external drive, click Restore in the main Disk Utility window, drag the name of the old hard drive to the Source box, and drag the name of the new external drive to the Destination box.  DU will make an exact clone of the internal drive on the external drive.
    That clone will be a complete backup of the operating system and all of your data.
    You can test it by restarting the iMac and hold the Option key.  That will give you a grey screen showing all bootable drives.  Just click the external drive, then click the upward pointing arrow under it and the iMac will boot from that drive.
