I lost an app icon. The app is still there but the icon is gone.

I did something and one of my app icons disappeared from my phone. The app is still there because when I double click on the home button and it opens up what apps are open, that app is there. It's just the icon that is missing. How do I get it back?

1. Restart your phone and see if the icon should come back.
2. Check Settings > General > Restrictions, make sure Installing Apps is allowed.
If it is, try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.

IOS 6 wiped all of my contacts! The numbers are still there but their names are gone. HELP!

IOS 6 wiped all of my contacts! The numbers are still there but their names are gone. HELP!

Thanks. I think I'm going to try and revert my old 3GS to factory settings, put my last back up on it and manually enter all my phone numbers. I'm too worried about messing everything up! I'm typically good with technological issues but my iPhone scares the crap out of me since it is so essential to everything haha

All e-mails in my mailboxes have been deleted. All the mailboxes are still there but the content in them...GONE. I tried the time machine

All e-mails in my mailboxes have disappeared. The mailboxes are still there, but no content. I think my behaviors were set to delete them after a month (i since tuned it off). I tried to go to time machine and it has never been "on". Can someone please help me retrieve ALL my e-mails that were in my mailboxes? Thank yoU!

It depends on your Mail Preferences Accounts Mailbox Behaviour settings. If your settings for the Comcast mail account are somethikng like this you would find them in your Mail Trash folder and then you would simply move them back to the correct folders. If you had not activated the Trash option for deleted messages and they are also no longer on the Comcast server, then they are probably erased from your system. Using the Trash option gives you some breathing room in case you accidentally or mistakenly delete messages.
Look in your Mail folder in a Finder window. Click on Home, open the Library folder and then open the Mail folder. Would be nice if there’s something there to recover but I don’t think so.

I was changing album art on my ipod touch 4th gen with a different laptop then all my music disappeared (the titles are still there but the music is gone and the space is empty) i recently updated to ios 6 and the laptop im using just got itunes on it

i chose not to sync my ipod for fear i would lose all my songs because the new laptop had no songs. ni chose to manage files manually, and after around 3 chages my ipod only read my purchased songs. so i unplugged my ipod and pluggd it back in. the laptop said i had all of my music in my ipod. after this the titles appeared but they were that light gray color and i couldnt play them. what happened???

That suggests the track is damaged.
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

Logic Pro 9- I saved a song- the audio files did not bounce and are nowhere to be found. The song is still there, but the audio files are missing. Any ideas?

I have searched the computer by song name in the audio files.
I have opened up media files and looked everywhere.
I tried remapping where they would be saved and hoping they were updated.
Any help finding where they are located would be great. The song still loads when I open it, I just can't find the audio files!

Have you tried using the built in Browser in LP?

Note: It works the same way in LP9 as in LPX

My camera and iBooks have stopped sending emails, the function and ability to create the email is still there but my iPad will no loner send the email or even store a draft on my account to suggest the email was ever written; please help I really need this functionality.

Can you send any emails at all indicating that the mail app is working? Did you try any basic stuff yet?
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Close those affected apps and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

When I updated iPhoto, many of my photos disappeared. The events are still there but no photos in them. How do I get it back?

When I updated iPhoto to iPhoto 9.5, many of my events with the photos disappeared. The "events" are still there but there is nothing inside. I have been unsuccessful in trying to get the photos back. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Greg

Yes - backup first in case something goes wrong
And if the iPhoto first aid does not resolve things download iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - and use its rebuild command to create a totally new library leaving the current one untouched if you still need it

In my Itunes library label: My Music albums content is missing even if I down loaded from a personal CD. I was trying to make up some playlists and the music is not there but the album title and tile is.anyone have any suggestions.

I have a Dell Desktop Optiplex 380 with Windows 7 operating system. regarding use of I-Tunes library and making playlists from "My Music"I went to My Music clicked on the album tile to drag to the new playlist and all of the albums are empty. Like the tracks are labeled but not there There is a note to go to the store and buy each track for 0.99. These Albums have been in the system for several years. where are they, and what happens to them. Do I need to import again. which could be a pain
Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks<

HELP! My iTunes library has disappeared so when I open iTunes it's blank. All the files are still there and the data is on my iPod, how do I restore it??

This happened about twenty minutes ago and I'm frantic trying to get it back.

I even tried restoring old libraries to see if that would work but still nothing!

My Imac 27' screen is shutting off for no reason. The Imac is still running but the screen is black and stay like that. Is there anyone else with the same problem, and does somebody know what is this?

I had my Imac27' for about 1 year (I bought it january 2011) , and it worked fine. But two days ago a problem started. The screen is turning black suddently, and it stay like that until I reboot it. It's not cool. The first time it happen it was hafter a very long days of video editing, I tought it was to hot. But now I just started up the Imac and 10 minutes later it happen. And now I transfer my desktop on my second screen, because the one of my Imac is constantly shutting of. What is this? Can I do something about that?

I´ve came across with the same problem and when I look out for solutions I found out that basically I had Three options
1.- Dim the brightness to the first 2 dots (that is the limit for me, anything above that shuts down again my screen)
2.- Replace an expensive part of the screen (about $900)
3.- Try with an external monitor to see if the problem was the screen or something else
What I did was to plug my flat screen to my mac with a Mini Display Port to VGA Adapter
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB572Z/B/mini-displayport-to-vga-adapter?fnode =51
And… Problem Solved! now Im going to buy a Monitor that gonna cost me less than half of the replacement parts, my main monitor will keep siting down if i dim it above the 2 dots but at least I will have the other to work properly
So that´s that, I hope someone finds this helpful
P.S. Sorry if my english it´s not that good

What happened to my profiles?! (The folders are still there but they can't seem to be recovered)

After having not used my computer for about a month, I came back to find that FF had updated itself to version 5 (and then 6, after restarting several times trying to fix this issue), and all my old profiles were seemingly gone. Everything. Not just bookmarks; history, settings, and extensions too. After some searching, I found the files for them in my User/Appdata/Local/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles folder, but trying to restore them by creating a new profile with the manager and pointing it to the older folder turns up nothing. I'm currently using one of those profiles, and of course, all of my settings and whatnot are gone. What happened?

Hi,
Try this, Open Messages and click Messages then Preferences.
Then Click accounts.
Now Make sure that you are signed in. Once you are signed in a box should be ticked which says enable this account.
Now you should be ready to go!
Hope that Helped!

Went to "setting" deleted data from "music" to make more space (I don't use iCloud). When I open "Music", the list is still there but there is no content/the actual songs. How can it back to a clean slate? "Setting" shows "Music" has no data.

Wanted to change my playlists and music, so went to >settings>music>delete data. So now, within the usage menu, the "music" shows "no data". But, when I open the Music app, it still shows the list of music that was supposedly deleted. And the weird thing is, it is only the list. There is no content. No actual music. How do I get rid of this lists and get it to a clean slate???

Can anyone HELP? My calendar A) no longer works and B) has deleted all the information that was in my calendar. All appointments, etc. I NEED this. Verizon and Google say they cannot help, so what else can I do?

Hi Lynne
I'm so sorry your having calendar issues. Was the device backing up with Gmail? Have you checked Gmail to see if the calendar is there on a PC? Was the calandar backed up with any other application? Did this start after an app was downloaded?

After several hours of inactivity, the tabs are blank with noway to tell them apart without clicking on them. also the menu bar is there but the words 'File Edit View History Bookmarks Tools Help' are blank. also the drop down menus are blank.

The links are there. I can click on them. I'm just can not see what I'm clicking on. The info on the tabs comes back but only when I click on that tab. rebooting every 24 hours fixes the problem temporarily.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
