Lost the Lync desktop icon Lync 2013

I recently lost the Lync icon on my desktop and taskbar.  It was replaced by the generic icon.  I refreshed the icon cache but to no avail.  Does anyone happen to know how I can get my icon back?

Navigate to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15 and find the Lync.exe program.  Right click and choose Unpin from Taskbar and Unpin from Start. Right click again and choose Pin to Taskbar and if you want, Pin to Start. Delete the icon on
your desktop and right click/drag Lync.exe to your desktop to create a new shortcut.

  • How do I hide the 3 desktop icons? [RESOLVED]

    I wanted to hide (not delete) the 3 desktop icons.  I think I can do this by altering one of the kde files, but I don't know which one.  Please can someone tell me which file+path I need to alter?

    Thanks!  My desktop is now just that bit cleaner.   However, it causes Beryl not to work.   I'll have to file a bug report with the Beryl Project.

    Hi,
    Based on my test, we can modify the desktop icon font color from white to black.
    For details:
    1.   
    User Configurations -> Preferences -> Registry
    2.   
    Right click Registry, point New registry Item, choose Update Action.
    3.   
    Modify the Background color: HKCU/Control Panel/Colors/Background
    4.   
    Modify the key:0 0 0
    Hope this helps!
    Best Regards

  • When i click on the Itunes desktop icon nothing happens?

    When i click on the Itunes desktop icon nothing happens? I've uninstalled itunes with Revo Uinstaller and deleted all traces and then reinstalled it through the Apple Software Updater and i still cant get Itunes to come up when i click on it.
    I've read that i can go to the task manager and end the process but im afraid to it says "Warning" when i click to end the process.
    Anybody help?

    +Yeah itunes.exe is the process im wondering about ending, wouldn't it be ended if i'v turned my computer of since then?+
    Something must be auto-starting itunes, then. For instance MSN messenger, it can have a plug-in to show what's playing in itunes and that could be starting itunes. There are other programs that can do it too - I don't know what's on your PC.
    Since this is happening in more than one account, I think you are going to have to go through the pain of using MSCONFIG to troubleshoot this issue.

  • I lost the Hard Drive Icon in my Finder Window

    I have lost the ICON for my Startup Disk "Macintosh HD"! It shows up in my other windows that I open but it is no longer on my DESKTOP. Ugh. How can I get the ICON back onto my DESKTOP? The computer is working fine.

    Ebo!,

  • When I click the MFF desktop icon Firefox takes exactly 30 seconds to load, is that right?

    ''Duplicate post, continue here -'' [/questions/752057]
    I have just installed Firefox and it takes 30s from clicking the desktop icon to loading the home page. Tabs only take about 2s, is this right?
    IE loads in 2-3 s.

    The answers you have got above are correct.
    However, if your FF otherwise feels snappy when browsing - and a second restart (aka. warm start) of FF is much faster than the first - then you could try my suggestions here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/762446#answer-119951
    The slow load time on a cold start is an old "classic" problem for FF.
    Mozilla may work on a solution or not, but meanwhile I'm happy with this work around.

  • Virtual PC 7 hid the mac desktop icons in Windows--how do you restore this?

    Hi there...hoping someone knows where one would be able to restore this setting this as I'm unable to locate anything through the preferences nor find any solutions in the user guide or online here in the group discussions.
    I have a client who is using an ibook G4 with VPC and her Mac icons disppeared from the Windows desktop after a popup window appeared and asked if she wanted to hide something and she accidentally clicked yes now the Mac icons are no longer visible on the desktop.
    Thanks for the suggestions.

    Hi there...thank you for the excellent help!
    With the Windows full-screen open press the command
    key so that the dock and the upper window will show
    up. Then, with the key still pressed, go to PC >
    Windowed mode.

  • Application minimized when launching from the JavaWebstart desktop icon

    Hi All,
    I created a desktop icon when I was prompted to thru JavaWebStart.
    Now, whenever I launch my application by double-clicking on the icon, it launches with the window minimized.
    I have to d-click on the windows taskbar to maximize it.
    Is there a way to launch the application with the maximized window.
    Maybe some property to be set in the JNLP file.
    Please let me know if anyone knows about it
    Thanks
    Urvashi

    O sure...I can do that if i am launching the application on a single monitor. And this does work if i have only 1 monitor. But in case of multi-monitors, this does not work.
    Thats why I was looking for more like property to be set.

  • Accidentally lost the FitBrains app/icon from my iphone

    Where has the icon/app gone?  It is still in my iTunes library C:\Users\Maria\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications\Fit Brains 1.6.2  In iTunes I have sync'ed my iphone with my laptop; dragged the FitBrains icon app to my iPhone in iTunes; all my iPhone screens with their apps show in iTunes and I see Fitbrains on the first screen of my iPhone in iTunes.  However when I check the phone and listing of apps it is not there.
    Both iPhone4S and iTunes display of my iPhone show 163 apps  11.35 GB

    MetaSolaray thanks for your suggestions.  I had tried the latter;hadn't seen FitBrains. After resetting the home layout  when I checked App Store > Updates > Purchased > Not on This Phone>, 'Fit bRains Trainer' shows up with the icloud download icon to the right.  Clicking on this turns to the 'bull's-eye' circle but no download.  I will check the FirBrains site; I really enjoyed this app on the bus commute and bought a lifetime license.  Thanks!

  • Lost the Apps Store Icon

    Somehow my three year old managed to delete the Apps store icon.
    How can I find and replace the icon in the doc?
    Is it possible to lock the folders and icons on my ipod so that he doesn't delete them?
    Thanks

    You cannot lock apps. You can restrict the deletion and installation of apps in restrictions. Settings>General>Restrictions - take at look at the options.
    If you have restrictions enabled, maybe that is why the app store icon is not appearing.
    Swipe from screen to screen to look for it as well.

  • HT1689 I losted the File Manager Icon, How can I re-install?

    My iphone missed the file manager icon , I need to re-install this application.  My mobile is 3G with software vir. 4.2.1
    Regards

    Well, from what I can tell, File Manager is an app in the App Store https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/file-manager-free/id479295290?mt=8. So, I'm guessing the OP will need to go back to purchased apps and redownload.

  • Why have my pdf files lost the Adobe pdf icon? Please help.

    Hello all.
    In transfering pdf files from my old PowerBook G4 to my new MacBook Pro, half of the pdf files now have a blank page as an icon. Also, all pdf files that I now create through print in Safari are blank. Nevertheless, all of these files open properly with Adobe Reader. This is the only type of file that lacks a proper icon. Why has the proper icon been lost & how do I solve this problem?
    Thanks for your help.

    Thank you, the problem appears to have been solved by
    rebuilding the launch services database as you
    recommended. The second solution did not work.
    Question: why do you think this problem occurred with
    a new computer straight out of the box?
    When you transfer files from another computer or over an FTP site or email, some of the info is sometimes lost. It's actually pretty rare from computer to computer but just about always happens on Internet transfers, although those mostly lose their icons.
    I'm still learning how to use this web site. I
    selected helpful without realizing I should have
    selected solved. Can I change to solved?
    I don't think so but you can make this one as solved.
