My icons are missing from finder and Safari.

Not sure what I have done. My icons are missing from finder and Safari, tired the customise tool bar option with no joy,   please help.

Try this  - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • File icons are missing from my ML desktop. Name is there but the icon is missing.  How do I fix this?

    Some of my file icons are missing from the Mountain Lion desktop.  The file name is there but not the icon.  The file can be opened when the words are double clicked.  The files show up properly in Adobe Bridge.  These are Photoshop files.  How do I fix the problem?

    Get Info (cmd-i) on one of these files. In the "Open with" tab is PS selected?
    If that's so it may be some corruption LaunchServices.These are only cache files but can get corrupted.
    Launch /Utilities/Terminal and copy & paste this at the command line to rebuild LaunchServices:
    (EDIT: Be sure to copy the entire line of code it is a slider)
    Code:
    /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
    Then press return. Wait until terminal returns to the command line. Quit Terminal. After that, log out and back in or restart. Let us know

  • HT203167 My App Store icon is missing from ipad and won't re-install?

    My App Store icon is missing from ipad and won't re-install? You can't delete it so where is it?

    If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • All my icons are missing from the Menu bar.. help!

    Hi everyone,
    Today I noticed that all my icons are missing from the right hand side of my screen. There is no Wifi, Bluetooth, clock, or Spotlight! How does this happen?!?
    Does anyone have any solutions?
    Thanks, Timmay

    Hi
    One reason for this behaviour is installing a Front Row hack that lets you run Front Row on an unsupported Mac. If this applies to you see Dr. Smoke's Uninstalling the Front Row hack FAQ.

  • Icons are missing on IBar and on Everything launcher sometimes

    Hello,
    I'm using enlightenment (E17) and I'm happy with it.
    However, sometimes application icons are missing on IBar and on Everything launcher:
    This happens rarely, maybe once on 10 boots.
    I've read this topic. I've evas_generic_loaders installed. But still icons are missing sometimes
    Any suggestions what else can I try? Or where can I check what is going wrong (e.g. some logs)?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Icons missing from Finder and desktop

    I have just bought a new iMac. Most of the proper icons for the various applications and folders are not showing in the Finder; instead there is a generic b&w icon that is difficult to see. The icons of files (Word, Excel. Acrobat) on my desktop do show up briefly when I start-up, but then one-by-one change to the nondescript icons. Curiously, one Excel file is OK, but that is the only one.
    Can anyone help me on this one?

    There is a Use As Default button but in order to use it for preview icons you first have to open a folder in the Finder and set it to icon view; then the View>Show View Options menu will include a Use As Default button at the bottom.
    Whether that works in Dock stacks I don't know because the first thing I did with my new Macs was disable the abominable stacks using a 3rd-party utility called Quay. Rumour has it that the forthcoming Os 10.5.2 update will have that option built in (as it should have been from day 1).
    As things stand, you can either live with the seriously misjudged default behaviour of folders added to the Dock or you can force the folder icons to show a constant icon by adding a file or folder with the desired icon to each of the dock folders and putting a space at the start of its filename so that it is always the first item in the list. Alternatively, the aforementioned Quay lets you set a custom icon for each Dock folder.

  • Button icons from finder and safari gone

    My iMac updated Safari on 8-13-14 and ever since then the icons from the navigation menu of both Safari and Finder have Disappeared. What do I do to Fix this?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • The Go back , or forward drop-down... the history reload ..the Stop loading the current page ....and Open your home page(s) '''icons are missing from my navigation bar.''' It tried reset and it doesn't work. How do I fix it ?

    I just loaded firefox 4 and am using windows areo

    This whole matter is extremely frustrating. There is NO home icon on any toolbar nor under customize so it can't be dragged in. And this running back and forth in the so-called Help that doesn't help is "helpless!" I'm getting nowhere.

  • My image previews are missing from finder???

    I'm not sure what category this would be best in, so I'm putting it here.
    All images on my iMac won't show up as a preview when they are either on my desktop or in finder, I'm not sure what this is...
    It just started happening earlier today. I was installing the Nikon software suite because I was having trouble uploading NEF files from my camera. I'm not sure why this would change anything though...?
    Please any idea as to how to change this back, is very appreciated!

    You cannot delete Safari. If is on your iPad somewhere.
    Do you have restrictions turned on? Settings>General>Restrictions>On. If you have it turned on, you may have disabled Safari.
    If you cant find it with the search feature - or by swiping from screen to screen and looking in all of your folders - you can reset the home screen layout to the original out of the box home screen.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout. That will put Safari back on the dock, but it will return your home screen to the way it looked when you first activated the iPad.

  • All my photo's are missing from iPhoto and I'm getting a message "your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable"

    Yesterday when I opened iPhoto all of my photo's were missing.  After many hours of frustrating time looking how to resolve, I decided to try again this morning.  When I tried to open iphoto, I got the message I referenced above regarding the library is either in use or has become unreadable.
    My photos are not in iPhoto anymore.  There's nothing there.  iphoto acts like its never even been set up.    I have iPhoto '11 version 9.4.3. I have OS X Lion version 10.7.5.  However, when I go to "All My Files" and then under "images", there are over 10,000 images.  I see my photos (I guess it's all of them - i have no idea how many there were) and other "images" also.  When i go to "pictures" I only see the 15 or so items I have scanned.  In "iPhoto Library", there is 1 picture of what looks like a deck of playing cards with flowers on them - I don't know where that came from.  But also in "iPhoto Library"  under the heading "desktop", it shows a size of over 27GB and under "kind" it says "package".  Still under desktop and "Photo Booth Library" it shows 53GB and under "kind" it says "Photo Booth Library".  Before I opened iPhoto to view my photo's, I went to "empty trash" yesterday (not in iPhoto) and it showed over 65,000 items to delete.  There were no more than 200 that I could actually see.  So, I don't understand.  I let it delete a couple of thousand before I stopped it because I didn't know what it was doing.  I know - not too smart.  I don't know if that has anything to do with iPhoto or not; I'm just throwing that out there.  Today I went to "empty trash" and it now shows the 200 items that I can see in there.  Don't know what happened.
    I do have a time capsule but not sure if I’m using it correctly. If you were to tell me to restore to a certain point, I’d have to be walked thru the process.
    I downloaded “iPhoto Library Manager”, not exactly sure how to use it, but got a message basically saying the library nor the database could be loaded and that album data file for the library “iPhoto Library” could not be read.
    I’ve spent hours and hours and hours searching the web for answers but I’m scared to do much of anything thinking I could end up losing all my photos if I haven’t already.
    Please help!
    Thank you!
    James

    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start
    with Option #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Mail icon is missing from Dock and not in Applications folder.  What to do?

    My email icon disappeared from my dock when I turned off my computer.  In the past I go to the Applications folder and just drag the Mail application to the dock and I am good to go.  Now my Mail program is no longer in my Application folder.  Is there a site I can go to and download the Mail application for MacBook?  I am using Mac OS X 10.5.8
    Thanks!

    I actually found the System disk and reinstalled all of the Applications (including Mail), but when I went to open it, it said "this version of Mail does not work with the Operating System (Mac OS X 10.5.8).  What now?!
    Thanks.

  • Icons are missing from bookmarks after updating to 9.0.1 in MAC OSX. Any ideas?

    Prior to the upgrade, my list of bookmarks has an icom to the left which made it easier to select the bookmark I was interested in. These are now missing and only the title of the bookmark shows.
    I run Firefax under MAC OS X Lion
