Icon missing from System Preference on MacBook Pro. Please Help

The icon for my mail, contacts and calendars is no longer under my System Preferences. Can someone help me get it back? Thanks.

If you're running the OS version in your profile, you never had that icon. Assuming the profile is wrong, do as follows.
Select
View ▹ Customize...
from the System Preferences menu bar. If the missing icon appears, check the box next to it, or click Show All. Then click Done.

Icloud icon Missing from system preferences

Why can I not find my icloud icon in system preferences? Help!!!

Because you're running Snow Leopard (10.6.8 as noted in your profile)?
You must upgrade to Lion or Mountain Lion to 'get' iCloud. Or just wait until Mavericks is released later this fall. You can directly upgrade now to Mountain Lion, if your system has the right specifications -> http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5444 - or wait for Mavericks. Your call. Mountain Lion is $20 and available from the Mac App Store: Apple hasn't announced a price for Mavericks.
Good luck,

The Hardware Test detected a RAM problem. Take out the chips and make certain that the connections are clean and reinstall them. Make certain that they are well seated.
If the problem occurs again, test with one chip at a time. Also swap bays if necessary.
Please indicate if you have installed new RAM and if so what brand and the specifications.

Energy Saver Options Tab missing from System Preferences Pance

Recently I upgraded with Combo Update Snow Leopard 10.6.2 on my Mac Pro and now I find that I have no Options Tab in the Energy Saver Pane of System Preferences. All the options that used to be available there cannot now be accessed. Sleep\Wake is functioning fine, and I can't remember what settings I had or even used. It has not been critical for me so I rarely check these options. It is possible that the tab disappeared when I applied the latest Security Update a few days ago - I'm not sure. Since the big weekend storm here I want to use the automatic restart after power failure feature that I think lived behind that tab. Thanks for any help.

I should say that I rarely, if ever, use the lower missing options mentioned above. If I am accessing the Mac Pro from my other local computers I just wake up the Mac Pro. And I can't ever remember wanting my computer to restart after a power failure. If we have a power failure in this area, it is likely to come back on and then just as suddenly go off again. Not a good thing, I would imagine, for delicate electronics. Usually I wait 30 minutes to an hour after the power resumes in my home before powering up any electronic equipment.
I do wonder why the options disappeared though.

Bootcamp Icon missing from system tray...

On the 1st computer (iMac) that I installed BootCamp with Win 7, I have an icon in the lower left system tray for changing the booting choice.
Today I installed BootCamp on my wife's new Mac Mini and the icon is missing from the system tray. While it was about 6 weeks ago that I put BootCamp on my iMac, I don't remember doing anything that cause the Windows system tray to display the boot choice icon for BootCamp/Win 7.
Anyone have an idea about how I can get that icon to appear on the Mac Mini.
Both systems are running Snow Leopard with the latest software.

Macaby there are two separate components of Boot Camp. First is Assistant which runs on the Mac side of things from OS X. It creates/deletes the Windows partition which is necessary to install Windows. Next the Boot Camp Panel software which is installed once you have successfully installed and are running Windows. It allows tweaking of the Apple hardware from within Windows. It is installed using the OS X disc and does not jeopardize your installed Windows OS in any way. This disc also contains the hardware driver necessary to optimize the hardware in Windows. In my experience this disc has never started via autorun so you will most likely have to locate the Boot Camp folder and run the setup.exe file manually.
Don't know how much your wife uses Windows but if it's running well enough then you may want to leave it alone. Check device manager in Windows for any red or yellow punctuation marks. This will indicate a potential driver issue in Windows. Also check the Windows Experience Index for performance issues. A 1 anywhere indicates a driver issue. If you have no driver issues and Windows is running well enough you may want to leave it at that.

HT1338 what is the idle system preference for macbook pro

I want to know the best system prefrence set up for Mac pro. I upgraded to lion and ever since my chat gets disabled sunddenly and I cannot type anymore

There is no "best" system preference set up.
If you have problems with Lion try this first:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
If iChat is the only application with which you have a problem, then try deleting the /Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.ichat.com preference file in case it's corrupted.
If this doesn't seem to help then you might try reinstalling Lion:
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

File Sharing Missing from System Preferences Sharing

Hello, I am running MAC OSX Server 10.5.8. When I open System Preferences and click on Sharing I do not see the option to enable File Sharing. What must I do to get that to show up in the list? Right now my list looks like this...
__ DVD or CD Sharing
__ Screen Sharing
__ Remote Login
__ Remote Management
__ Remote Apple Events
__ Bluetooth Sharing
That's it. No File Sharing and everything I have searched to this point makes me believe it should be there.
Also, I have enabled AFP, NFS, SMP in the Server Admin. I have also turned off Firewall just to see what happened. Nothing.
Thanks for your help.
