Lost icons 3gs v4.x software

Hi There -- I loaded new software to my 3gs last night...now most icons for apps that I've loaded do not show on the 'desktop'?!? The apps are in the iphone, I can search them & start them. A few apps that were loaded early on still appear on the desktop. I saw instructions about transferring apps from iphone to itunes so I did that step, didn't change the status. I downloaded updates for many apps, sync'd again, still no change in status.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Jeff

If you updated to 4.1 then the Game Center app which was installed may have pushed your existing apps onto a later home screen. See the white dots near the bottom of the home screen? They indicate how many home screens you have. Continue swiping right-to-left and you may discover that all your apps are still there, just pushed to a later screen. You might want to rearrange them if that is the case.

    when i use i pad with apple tv for see my photo,youtube and movies all ok.

    I suspect that the problem is in your router. Do NOT consider your router to be blameless if some other devices seem to work with it.
    Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. Don't just turn it Off. On many routers that doesn't really do anything but put the router into standby mode. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
    There is a chance that some services turned on in your router could be causing problems. Look for a setting called QoS (Quality of Service). If ON turn it OFF.
    If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.

  • Lost icon for Settings, Safari and Email

    I have lost the icons for the following, and probably more.  Settings, Safari and email. 
    I have done what might be called a "hard reset" by holding down both buttons at the same time. 
    I cannot use iTunes to restore, as it will not allow me to do so. 
    I have looked in every icon that holds a few programs, and the lost icons are not there.
    I understand that scrolling will help find the settings icon, because it is there somewhere, but I have scrolled ad nauseum, and it isn't there. 
    I don't mind wiping it, but don't know how to do it.  This is on the original iPad.

    I am not sure I can offer any more help. It seems very odd that you can't find the installed icons anywhere. Just to make sure, you did not see anything in the task bar when you swiped through it? Did you have a search page and what happened when you tried to search for 'settings'. When I try that in my ipad, I will get a listing for my settings icon that I can tap and it will take me to settings.

  • Snychronization from iPhone 3GS to iTunes software

    Summary: I transitioned from an old laptop (iTunes 9.1.1.12) to a new laptop (iTunes 9.1.1.12). Per Apple's backup instructions, I successfully backed up the iTunes library on the old laptop to cd-rom and imported the cd-rom to the iTunes software on the new laptop.
    During my transition, I experienced the following challenges.
    1. My iPhone 3GS (software 3.1.3) has songs and one video. Within iTunes on my new laptop, my iPhone 3GS successfully appears under the devices. Under the Movies tab, I select the checkbox to Sync Movies. The prompt appears, "Are you sure you want to sync movies? All existing movies on the iPhone will be replaced with movies from your iTunes library."
    Under Devices, there is the Movies tab: There are no movies currently residing in my iTunes library on my new laptop. Therefore, further action to synchronize will erase the video on my iPhone 3GS! Yikes!
    Under Devices, there is the Music tab and Photos tab: Similar prompts appear for music and photo synchronization! Yikes!
    What should I perform to avoid this dilemma?
    2. My iPhone 3GS (software 3.1.3) does not automatically synchronize when I attached the data cable on my new laptop. On the old laptop, synchronization was automatic when I attached the data cable.
    What should I perform to see automatic synchronization?
    3. Under Devices, there is the Apps tab: All the application icons are gray! I recall that I could see application icons in full color and rearrange them in iTunes on my old laptop.
    What should I perform to see the application icons in iTunes on my new laptop?
    Thank you for your support!

  • Lost icon on Xpress 5800

    Could anyone please tell me how to get back my message icon on my Xpress 5800, it disappeared and I cannot find anywhere in the manual how to retrieve it.

    Incorrect.
    Restore factory default settings:
    *#7780#
    Restore to Nokia Default Settings - no user data (sms...) will be lost
    Soft reset:
    *#7370#
    Format phone - like from the box... - ALL user data will be LOST
    green, red and camera buttons pressed down =  Hard reset
    "who cares...."
    I do. I care that people are given accurate information and that we all use the same terminology so that misunderstandings are kept to a minimum.
    A soft reset is a reset that occurs in response to a software condition, namely a given sequence of keystrokes having been detected.
    A hard reset is a reset that occurs in response to a hardware condition, namely 3 keys being pressed down when the phone boots.

  • Using Java Icons in 3rd Party Software

    Hi,
    First apologies if this posted to the wrong forum but I could not find any others that were suitable.
    I develop a business process modelling tool that allows the user to create models that can be activated and executed as live enterprise systems.
    I wish to add the ability to call java classes/methods as part of the process. No problem there, but to represent the calling of Java I would like to use the standard Java "cup" icon within the graphical model that my software displays.
    Does anyone know if this is permissable by Sun? If I use Sun logo's in my software am I breaking any copyright laws etc. ? Would I need a disclaimer saying that Sun does not endorse my product if I did use it?
    I can't find any info on this in the readme's. I have found some re-usable toolbar icons supplied by Sun to keep a consistant look and feel but nothing more.
    Any help or advice would be appreciated.
    Cheers

    Why does itune change all the icons on my desktop to the itune icon after downloading?  Then resulting in the only software that will open is itunes?

    Hiya Katrina! I might have accidentally made some progress on this one yesterday.
    Every time I've seen it reported and I've tried to do some work on it, it has only affected one user account on the PC.
    So ... it might be related to a damaged icon cache for the affected user account. (There's one of those for each different user account on the PC. This is what I accidentally learned yesterday while trying to research a fix for a slightly different problem.)
    If that's what is going on, rebuilding the icon cache might get folks past it:
    http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/how-to-rebuild-the-icon-cache-in-windows-vista /
    ... Trouble is that that's all educated(?) guesswork/speculation, and the procedure looks a bit hairy. It's the sort of thing where I'd definitely be setting a System Restore Point for the system prior to giving it a go.

  • Lost icons in finder sidebar, and folders that won't go away

    I've somehow lost the icons for documents, movies, music and pictures in the finder sidebar...and i dragged some folders to the sidebar to use temporarily but they keep reappearing even after i've trashed them...is there a way to reset my sidebar to the default (and tehn i will hope that solves both problems)? Thanks!

    Hi AYS,
    Navigate to ~(yourhome)/library/preferences and trash these two files:
    com.apple.finder.plist
    com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
    Then log out and back in again. Or restart.
    (You will have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.)
    Let us know.

  • My E52 lost Mail For Exchange after software updat...

    After I updated my E52 software the phone seems to have lost it's mail for exchange client. Setting up webbased email accounts like hotmail is no problem (though through Nokia Messaging), but when when I try to setup my work email it just tell me that the unit does not support any more accounts for workrelated e-mails (I don't have any option to choose mail for exchange).
    Before the update I had an option to choose to choose mail for exchange and it would ask me for domain and server and everything and it was no problem.
    As mail for exchange is supposed to be integrated in the E52 as part of nokias new emailing software (as far as I can read), I am not able to download and install the mail for exchange client separately (and I have tried by the way, but it refuses to install).
    Has anybody experienced similar problems after the software update, and/or do you have any solutions?

    The Hungarian support told me, that the new Nokia Messenger supports exchange, but only one email. And most probably the system already stored your email that you used before the upgrade. With the upgrade the datas were deleted, and you cannot recall it, or edit it from the web interface (email.nokia.com) but still the system thinks that you already have one (even if I want to use the same one). Therefore you cannot open a new one. The support promised me to delete it maually with system administrators and then I would be free to use it again.
    Try this with your local support, perhaps that is the truth.

  • [SOLVED] KDE 4.5.2: lost icons of Pidgin, Skype... from System tray

    Plasma crashed today and I lost, so called, "Default panel". After restart, I manually added panel, added System tray widget on it but System tray is no more displaying icons of non KDE applications such Pidgin, Skype and DeaDBeeF. Tried to change icon theme, played with icons folder mentioned in topic https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=103689 but so far no luck. There are not even blank spaces instead of icons. If I add System tray widget to the desktop, it also don't have those icons on it and it have blank spaces instead, say, KNotes and Klipper.
    Any help is appreciated.

  • Lost ALL access privileges after software change

    I have a G4 running 10.4.3 Tiger. It began to act unstable--contant freezes, etc--and out frustration I loaded the only software I could find (OS X 10.3) and as a result, solved the freezing but lost user access to everything I have--IPhoto, iTunes, movie files, etc etc. iPhoto won't even launch! How do I regain access to the files? I bought the Mac used, and the original user accounts were set up by the previous owner, so I don't know passwords, user names, etc. Help!

    Tough to figure what a 10.3 install might have done with the 10.4 files, Downgrades by a whole point were never figured in.
    First, Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when done.
    Then I'd get EasyFind...

    Search your whole drive for some personal files, or some extension like .mp3 to see if/where they are.
