Lost my closing icons

The little red, yellow and green buttons in upper left corner have disappeared off my my screen unless iI reduce size, this never happened before, how do I get them back?

Sounds like one of the zoom options may have been enabled.
Check in System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing and if Zoom is turned on, turn it off.
Another possibility is Smart Zoom. This is engaged by holding down the Control key while using the scroll up and scroll down gestures on a Magic Mouse or Magic Trackpad.

    I have lost the airplay icon on my iPad. Tried everything on the help site. Can anyone help?

    Hi, Sean5656. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Sometimes closing all applications in multitasking and power cycling the device can resolve the issue.  However, further troubleshooting may be needed.  Here are the best articles to help you troubleshoot this issue.

    Help I have 'lost' my downloads icon from the dock on my desktop Mac. Can I retrieve it? If so please describe how, using simple terms. I have tried searching folders, finder and trash

    Your Downloads folder should be in your Home folder. Just drag it to the Dock.
    If you've managed to delete it, try creating a new folder called 'Downloads'. You will probably need to nominate it in Safari or any other browser preferences as your download destination. (Safari Preferences>General, 'Save downloaded items to:' menu)

  • Since updating to version 8.0.1 many websites have lost their identity icon.

    In the address bar and Bookmarks a lot of web sites have lost their identity icon in Firefox 8.0.1 (which were there before). Holding the cursor over the icon area brings up a message saying 'this site does not supply identity information'. But this message also comes up when putting the cursor over one ''with'' an icon. Some sites have the icon in Bookmarks but it doesn't show in the address bar. I have found it does not happen on Vista laptop, only on Windows 7 desktop.

    Hi. I think there are two different things going on here. The "identify information" message relates to something unrelated to the webicon. From what I can tell it has to do with digital signing. I had to do some browsing before I found a site that actually ''was'' signed: Google. When you go to Google you'll see the site name to the right of the webicon with the url afterward. Holding cursor over it shows google.com's signed by Thawte Consulting. Oddly enough, VeriSign is not...um...verified. The story on this one will be interesting.
    As far as the webicon goes, if you provide links to a few sites that don't work I'd be glad to take a look. I haven't had the problem yet on Lion or Win 7 Pro, but that doesn't mean anything. It could be the way the icon is identified or its filetype: .ico and .png files can be used (maybe others) and there are different ways to identify them: link rel="shortcut icon" or "icon" and type="image/x-icon" or "image/png" if a png file's used. Could be 8.01 no longer recognizes one of these or incorrectly stated ones it was OK with in the earlier release. All guesses of course w/o having something to look into.

  • I have recently upgraded my iPad 2 to iOS 7 and I have lost 3 app icons.  The apps still appear in settings, so I can't reinstall the app as they're already there.  I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling via an iTunes sync, but it hasn't helped.

    I have recently upgraded my iPad 2 to iOS 7 and I have lost 3 app icons.  The apps still appear in settings, so I can't reinstall the app as they're already there.  I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling via an iTunes sync, but it hasn't helped.  The 3 apps are bbc iplayer, itv player and sky go.
    Can anyone help please?

    Have you checked to see if the Apps have been placed in an App folder?
    Try swiping down from the middle of the screen so the search bar appears. Type the name of the App and if the App appears it is indeed on your phone.
    You could also try restarting your device by holding the power and home button until the Apple logo appears.

    Click on the house icon in the Finder's sidebar and drag it back from there. In recent Mac OS X versions, you can also drag it back directly from the sidebar.

    I've lost my camera icon.   How can I get it back?

    I'd do a backup first.
    Then
    Go to settings, reset, and select screen icons. They will reappear and you will have to spend time re boxing them into folders.
    Just did this all last night on my wifes iPhone4. So I know it works and was successful.

    The YouTube app is no longer included in the native apps. Apple recommends you visit the website.
    Perhaps google will make another app and make it available in the App Store soon, I miss it too.
