An on-screen volume indicator has disappeared from the Compaq Presario running Windows 7
I have a Compaq Presario CG56 with Windows 7 64 bit. All of a sudden the volume display on the screen (NOT the taskbar icon) does not appear when I adjust the volume. I don't change anything on the computer. Any ideas?
Hi again,
If you do not want to install / uninstall anything, then you can restore your system to the point where you remember that visuals work ok.

How to do a system restore in Windows 7
When it will not work then you will need to use the solution to my previous answer.

BlackBerry Smartphones calendar icon has disappeared from the screen
Torch 9800.
Calendar icon has disappeared from the menu display. I have synced with desktop calendar so transfer the log events are going to the device and reminders for events are appearing. without an icon I am unbale to make journal entries in my phone. How to restore the icon of the menu display calendar? Thank you. Robyn
Thanks for sharing everything you already tried... any information help so avoid redundant orientation.
Please, dig deeply and carefully on all the home screen panels, subfolders, etc... It is easy to accidentally move an icon to a different location. Also, you dig, please make sure that "Show all" is active, just in case you've hidden inadvertently to the icon.
Good luck and let us know!

The address bar has disappeared from the top of any tab, I opened, so there is nowhere to enter a web address. Could I have accidentally made it happen? How can I get that back?
Just to be clear, it is not on the tab bar is? (It's the new style in Firefox 4 and 5).
To show or hide the toolbars, you can use the old view menu.
If you have the orange Firefox button, press the Alt key to temporarily show the classic menu bar.
Menu view > toolbars > check the Navigation bar
If you view the navigation toolbar, but it is incomplete or damaged, you can reset your toolbars.
Menu view > toolbars > customize
In the great dialog box with the icons, to the bottom, click on restore by default.
Does this help?

Hello
Here is the Vista Forums, you send messages to.
Vista doesn't do not part of the update free Windows 10, so 10 would not settle.
The free update is for 7, 8/8.1 and 10.
See you soon.
