V11.0 - out of date app icons are displayed

Having updated to iTunes v11.0 the icons displayed for apps that have had icons changed in a later release are the icons for an earlier release. Is it me or has anybody else noted this?

Thanks! I was just figured this out myself too. I was moving the app around and accidentally move one app over another and then it asks to create a folder name. Wow, I wasn't think that possible but this is way too easy. I can completely manage to organize my apps in my PB. Hmmm...I better dig into the user guide for more tricks. I love OS 2.0 now. Way to go RIM...

The date randomly changed and all app icons are white?!?

I updated my apps to their latest version and when the sync was done everything was fine, but somehow out of nowhere my date changed completely and all my app icons are white. Only apps that I did not update had their original icon. My ipod touch 2nd gen is not jailbroken. This happened once before, I updated my apps, and it went back to normal only for a few hours until it happpened again.
What is going on and how can I fix this?

Hey!
Same thing happened to me! I took it into the apple store and they said its a glitch in the system and that it needed to be restored to original settings. You can do this from itunes, just don't restore from backup, set up as new.
He made a list of the apps I had to make sure he could download them again for me. It shouldnt be a problem with icloud but if you dont have it, i would recommend asking someone at the apple store to do it for you so you dont lose your apps.
Also, mine was great for a while after that but I have noticed that its back to changing the date. It only happens when I let my itouch's battery die completely so I try not to but it is still annoying when it does happen.
hope this helps!

I have just updated to ISO 8 and my app icons are not displaying the correct icon but just a generic icon. Anyone had a similar problem?

I have just updated to ISO 8 and my app icons are not displaying the correct icon but just a generic icon. Anyone had a similar problem?

That happened to me for a short period of time after I updated. It didn't do it with all apps, but it did it with a few here and there. Try a few basic standard troubleshooting steps. Close all apps and reset the iPad.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
You can also try resetting all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
Hopefully it will be something simple, but don't rule out restoring the iOS software, if nothing else works, but start with this easy stuff first.

TS1702 I synched my phone and now my apps icons are missing on my iphone. I can see them and open them if I go to the app store. How do I get the icons back on my screen?

HELP, I synced my iphone and computer and now my apps icons are missing on the screen of my iphone. I can access the apps only through the apps store by pressing OPEN. How do I get the icons back on the screen for the apps?

Make sure your phone is connected to the computer and iTunes is open
1. Visit Instagram.com from your computer web browser
2. Click "Download in the app store"
3. It will download and show up in your iTunes
4. Highlight and sync the app to your iPhone (note: it will not show up on your phone, even after it says syncing is complete).
5. In iTunes, select the Instagram icon and click "Remove" or "Uninstall"
6. Click Accept and Uninstall when it asks you to confirm as it will remove instagram and its data from your iPhone
7. Disconnect the phone from the computer
8. Manually reboot the phone after exiting all apps
9. Upon re-start, you will be able to access the app in the App Store, and install it

Some of my purchased apps icons are missing. how do i get them back on my ipad?

On my ipad, some of my purchased apps icons are missing. The app store indicates that the apps were purchased so i cannot install them again. How do I get the icons back?

- Are the apps missing or are the icons white?
- If missing have yu tried using the Spotlight search and trying to find them?
- Have you tried downloading them on your iPad and then syncing?
- Have you tried deleting them on the computer and then syncing? That might also delete them from the iPad so you can redownal them
- Have you tried reetting the iPad?
Reset iPad: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Updated to IOS 5 and app icons are missing

I upgraded last night and now some of my app icons are missing. If I do a spotlight search and find the app I can then launch the app from there but I would like to have the icon back to use rather than a workaround.

After the IOIS 5.0 update my apps weren't showing on my device until I tabbed thru several screens on the phone. The only other issue was when I did a "restore" to new , not from backup because I was issues with the update (Bugs) Did a update and my apps didn't show until I did a " File" ................Transfer Purchases from Iphone.....with the device connected to ITunes...........then Sync................ Another possibility could be in the following link:

Ipod app icons are grey

I have just received my new ipod touch 2nd generation back from apple as my other one would no longer work. Having synced my material to my new ipod. 75 % of the app icons are just grey boxes . How do i fix this please to get the icons back on the apps..any help would be greatly appreciated

Yea ipod touchs do that, there probably downloading and you unplugged it, am i right? If you have alot of music and apps it should take from 30-60 mins to reinstall them...connect it to your computer and sync purchases or connect to wifi click apps to make them stop "waiting..."
NOTE: only one app can download at a time dont click them all at once clck one and leave it alone if you use wifi.
Goodluck

HD IPad 3 App icons are blurry

Some of my HD IPad 3 App icons are blurry such as the Nasa HD one, why? The Icon is HD in the app store but not on my Ipad. Help?

You know, that was it! Silly me; I should have known better.
But!....
Several of the affected apps still wouldn't show up after turning the restrictions off. I had to do the "hard" restet on the iPad to see them. Odd, that.

Cinnamon taskbar app icon not displaying properly for Sublime Text

Cinnamon is displaying Sublime Text's icon in the taskbar as a question mark. This is the only app it does it with and I'm having trouble finding out what's causing it to attempt to fix it. Different themes have no effect. Other programs installed from the AUR display just fine. The icon displays just fine in the main menu, but when I open it, the taskbar icon is just a '?'. Also I've tried this on Linux Mint 17.1 (also running Cinnamon 2.4) and the issue is not present there.
The closest I have come to figuring out what is causing the problem is through the looking glass. Under the Windows tab and the Application column, my other apps that are displaying fine have .desktop values, but Sublime Text is showing up as "<untracked>". However I can't right click, double click, or otherwise edit this value.
I have included two screenshots, the first shows that Sublime Text shows up fine in the main menu but not in the taskbar and the second shows Looking Glass.

I think I got the solution,
On the Desktop Entry tag of the .desktop file add the following
StartupWMClass=subl3
By running, as in one of the references,
$ xprop WM_CLASS
and then clicking on the Sublime Text application the following will show
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "subl3", "Subl3"
In my case it was subl3 so, replace with one of the results from command.
Here is the reference:
The .desktop file from libreoffice-writer as it in previous iterations it also had a similar problem
Add WMCLASS to desktop file in linux http://support.mendeley.com/customer/po … e-in-linux
Check which process it needs to track http://superuser.com/questions/142318/h … xorg-linux
Hope this helps

I bought the Garmin USA app for $50.. it is useless as out of date for my area. The apple store said go to Garmin. Garmin said fgo to the app store.. I clicked not satisfied on my receipt and it sent me to Garmin!!! They said it was apple to deal with

I bought the Garmin app for $50 as the maps on my garmin in my car are not current. I thought this would avoid the need to travel with 2 devices. However, the maps are hopelessly out of date for where I live with roads and roundabouts that have been there for more than a year not on the maps. I went to the apple store to ask them what to do. they said contact Garmin. I did and they said it was only apple who could give me the refund. So I found the receipt and clicked on "do you have a problem with this app" and was redirected to Garmin. I called them( I was on hold a long time) and they said I would need to get the refund from apple.... but I can't find a way to do this. If the app had been 99 cents that would have been OK.. I've bought a few duds , but $49.99!!!
How can I get to contact apple store/ App store directly to get the refund.. this has been going on for weeks with me getting the run around from Garmin and apple. PS don't buy this app!!!!

Garmin is sending you to Apple because it is Apple that would have to give you a refund as the actual point of sale. However, Apple states all sales are final.
Apple is sending you to Garmin because it is Garmin's fault their maps are out of date and Apple doesn't write the software. They may not even be looking that deeply and simply perceiving it as a programming "bug" it is up to Garmin to solve.
Who know whose fault it is that Garmin isn't getting up to date data to put in their maps.
Ultimately I think you stand the best chance in getting a refund from Apple though it isn't guaranteed. Apple is the cashier. You just have to convince them this isn't just a line of code omitted from an application and isn't something that will be soon corrected by Garmin. Make it clear it isn't a problem with the application running on your device, it is a problem with the data it contains. Either that or you have to hope Garmin will feel so bad about it they will delve down into their slush fund and send you a refund.

Calendar app icon is displaying the wrong date

For some reason on my iPhone's homescreen the icon for the Calendar app has today started displaying the wrong date.
It should show today's date, Monday 6th but instead it reads Sunday 5th.
What confuses me is that the phone does know the date is Monday 6th as the lock screen shows it correctly and also when I actually load the Calendar app it starts on the right date. Also, when I load the multi task bar the Calendar app icon there is correct. See the attached photo, which shows the Calendar app on the home screen (faded, middle left) displaying yesterdays date Sunday 5th, while the app icon in the multi task bar is correct, Monday 6th.
Syncing the calendar with my iMac does not correct the error. Equally, turning the phone off and on again has not sorted it.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing the fault? And more importantly how to correct it?
Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion DaVBMan, sadly it didn't work. The only thing that did work was to wait until midnight and it corrected itself. In the mind of the phone it lived a whole day twice and then skipped one completely in order to get back on track. Very odd and also I have since discovered it has happened to a few of my friends too.
It's not happened again so I have no idea what so ever what caused it. Fingers crossed it never recurs.

Some of my App icons are missing (Mail, iCal, Firefox)

Applications work, but they are missing their icons. It seem to be more and more icons with every restart. The icons are missing in Launchpad, dock and the Applications folder. Anyone having same problems

Try Rebuilding LaunchServices Database in OS X Lion to repair problems with incorrect icons
Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder. At the prompt copy & paste in the following command in its entirety:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
You do not have to hit return
Just let the process run it's course, it will eventially put you back out at the prompt when complete (60-90 seconds.)
restart your mac.
