Free transform tool has disappeared from the palette. How can I get that back?
The free transform tool is displayed is no longer in the palette. I guess I must have done something by mistake to make it disappear, but I don't know what. How can I get it back?
What happens if you use the shortcut of pressing 'e '? It does not appear? It is located with the rotation, scaling and shearing tools so if one of them is selected, it will appear in the control panel instead of the free transform tool.

My calendar disappeared; How can I get that back?
This morning when I opened outlook, my calendar disappeared.
I am running Windows XP with 31.1.2 Thunderbird and Lightning (active) 3.3.1.
Calendar is now grayed out under view.The last important thing I did last night was to delete several messages and my folders compact.
I received many emails and added several calendar items since my last backup (4 days ago) and I'd rather not have to go back to that.
Why the calendar disappeared and how can I get it back?
Calendar under view selection is always grayed out unless you have the open calendar and you view the Calendar tab. You open the calendar under the events and tasks on the calendar. The shortcut is Ctrl + Shift + c.

My Control Panel is missing for a while. How can I get that back?
My Control Panel is out of the office. Is no longer, I can scan, check ink etc. levels. Where at - it go and how do I get it back?
cfkola,
Welcome to the HP Forum.
I think you need to refer to the Solution Center printer software and not your control panel.
Your Solution Center shortcut is perhaps missing - or there may be a deeper problem with your printer software.
The easiest option would be to reinstall the full features software for your printer and see if that solves all problems at the same time.
In most cases, for most printers, the solution center was replaced by the Printer Wizard shortcut. It is just a new program that performs on the same things as the Solution Center. Some people like better. The interface is a bit different - many features are the same. for example, your analysis and ink verify functionality will be available.
Instructions for (re) install the printing software are provided in this paper Dragon:
Install the full features software - printer
Click on the Thumbs - Up Kudos to show that you appreciate the help and time of our Experts.
Although I strive to reflect best practices of HP, I do not work for HP.
Click on accept as Solution when the answer is a good solution or workaround!

I deleted the 'My Computer' icon on my desktop. How can I get it back?
I deleted the 'My Computer' icon on my desktop. I'm unable to see new devices USB when I plug them in. How can I solve this problem?
A lot of different ways to do this.
"My Computer" appears on the start menu? If so, just click-n-drag it to the desktop to create a new 'shortcut to My Computer' then rename it to delete the words "shortcut to.
If my computer is not on the start menu, right-click on the Start button and select Properties. If you use the start menu XP (not the "Classic menu start), click the 'Customize' button then the"Advanced"tab Select the appropriate entry of "Items on the start menu."
Or, download TweakUI for XP at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/windows-xp
Run TweakUI, click "Desktop" and then check the icons to display on the desktop.
