  • Why, suddenly, my desktop icons are difficult to align because they can be moved very small distances?

    For years, my desktop icons have acted as if they have so many 'slots' to enter in on the office. But this has never been a problem. They were easier to align because they were right next to each other, or a 'slot' above/below/apart.

    Now, for some reason, I can travel distances of small icons on the desktop, as if they were scalar elements which can be minimally pushed open. Suddenly there are not more "slots", and sort of paradoxically icons are more difficult to assemble and align because I have to keep their repositioning so that they are straight. Before, they were either straight, or a whole notch offline.

    It is NOT correct. Right-click and select Show , and then turn on Align

  • Windows7 64 bit. Why the desktop icons all be empty when you run Firefox nightly for the first time?

    Every time after I get a Firefox Nightly update and run it, it will display the next page:
    https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/nightly/firstrun/?oldversion=30.0 which is fine.
    But when it opens this page, all my desktop icons go clear/white and one by one, they all return with their correct icons. And all this happens in a few seconds.
    Why is the operation of Firefox every night for the first time, my desktop icons?

    I suspect that you have both nightly and Firefox version installed?

    "The Firefox 'about' shows 30.0. and I've now checked for updates and are now running 33.1.1"
    

    It's different from what you have first published here with!
    Firefox 33.1.1 represents the latest version - a 32-bit version.

    Whereas, the version you first posted here with was a generation of 64-bit channel every night from July. Every night is for "Alpha-testers" and is updated every day, where the name of "night".

    Everything that happens in the background on the Windows desktop should not be of concern right now, every night Win 64 bit is several months out.
    If you really want to test the Win 64 Nightly builds, follow and participate in the very different evenings and son of 'channels' on MozillaZine forum is based.

  • hide the desktop icons

    I am running Yosemite 10.10.5... When I share my screen with others, I want to hide my desktop icons. I used to have an option called "Show items on desktop" I unchecked when I right click on my desktop... How to re - activate this option/icon... or how do we do now? Thank you in advance.

    I guess that you don't want an AppleScript object parked on your desktop or Dock that someone could run to display the icons on your desktop. This is a Bash script that displays an AppleScript dialog box to allow you a choice of a normal life (crowded) or share (naked) desktop. Tested on OS X 10.11.4.

    Screen sharing will clear your desk of all. Normal will bring back the clutter.

  • Desktop icons disappear

    Having just downloaded the latest Firefox update (I'm on the beta channel), as soon as it restarts, five of my desktop icons disappeared. I have more than 60 icons on my desktop and I don't remember what they are. Is it possible to know what icons have disappeared and the recovery please?

    Hi markyb208,

    I'm not sure what you have a problem with Firefox.

    Are you talking about icons on your Windows 7 desktop. In a standard installation, Firefox will try to add an icon on the desktop, but it shouldn't do something to remove the icons.

  • How can I get my desktop icon back scanner

    I have Windows 7 computer desktop and printer HP Officejet 4500 G510g, somehow, I lost my desktop icon that I use to scan documents.  How can I get it back?

    gnuma

    Hi, Sean

    I'm happy to announce that I now have my scanner to work.  I did as you suggested but I couldn't find an HPOfficejet file in the HP folder I found a bin folder in the folder of imagery but not scan.exe, but there was no scan file.exe inside.

    In any case, I have reinstalled the driver full features which I installed with the default settings.  When I got through everything that was there was the icon on my desktop solution Center.

    I did a scan and everything works fine.

    Thank you for everything.

    Sean, I've looked everywhere on the answer and could not find a bkutton "Bravo."

  • How can I get rid of my desktop icon after installing Firefox 8.0.1?

    How can I get rid of my desktop icon after installing Firefox 8.0.1?

    Make sure that Firefox is installed correctly.
    Open the image (DMG) disk Firefox with a double-click if necessary file and drag the Firefox program folder of the application on your hard drive.
    You should not double-click the Firefox application to run from the disk image and drag it out of the DMG file instead.

  • Pavilion p7: the desktop icons disappeared

    When I started my pc this morning I founf that all my desktop icons disappeared

    Hmm, that's strange. I wonder if you might have accidentally switched to Tablet mode, where the desktop icons would not display. See switch between Mode desktop and Tablet (Windows 10).

    If this does not work, try to install the Windows updates and reboot your computer. I would also like to run a virus scan. Good luck!

  • My iMac will be either reboot or shutdown of the apple desktop icon

    My iMac will be either reboot or shutdown of the apple on the desktop icon. Items saved on the desktop disappear and the menu from the top of the screen disappears, then it is just in this mode for ever more. I then use the switch to stop, which is clearly not the best way to ensure the longtivity of my system.  I use El Capitan 10.11.3 [latest version] I have tried the following but still the same issue.

    1. I ran disk utility, but no hard drive errors appear.
    2. I stop after having disconnected all my other connections (USB components, components lightning etc.), but still no change.

    Before you contact Apple directly, just wondering if anyone else out there he has a similar problem. I had my hard drive 3 TB replaced a few months back, in line with a reminder official apple and this problem started to reign around one month or later.

  • Satellite P200: Internet Explorer doesn't launch from the desktop icons

    HI -.

    I am running Windows Vista on a P200 Sat and I recently lost the ability to launch Internet Explorer my desktop icon or shortcut toolbar icon.

    I can launch it from my Windows Explorer ("C:\Program may Explorer\iexplore.exe") and I can run it from a link in an email, just not on the part of the shortcut icons.

    Initially, I could do and have uploaded a number of updates to Vista since the purchase of my laptop, so maybe order something?

    Suggestions gratefully accepted!

    See you soon

    sophiajs

    I think it's a problem with the IE shortcut on the desktop.
    You must remove this IE shortcut from the desktop and should copy or should create a new shortcut on the desktop in C:\Program may Explorer\iexplore.exe

    That s all ;)
