• Missing notification icon for wireless keyboard and mouse in the systray area.

  Missing notification icon for wireless keyboard and mouse in the systray area. Was working before the hard disk crash. Had to reload Windows Vista 64 bit OS. Have computer model gateway GT5678.

  Chances are good the software to include these icons in notification tray cam pre-installed on the bridge.  If you still all original gateway software, try to see if something in the menu start / all programs of the gateway seems as it can contain controls for these settings and run the program to check and see if it does.  If none of the gateway software help (assuming that all this is still installed) and re-installing the drivers did not work and there is no controls at the keyboard or the mouse, so I know what else to think.  These icons are not available with Vista - they were installed by a third-party device or software driver.

  I'm sorry that gateway could not help you.  They are those that you need to do to solve this problem, because it is something that they installed with the original computer which is not re-installled after you change hard drives.  They should know what software for it and power point yoo to a download site, or you send a disk with this software.  We can't really do anything else to help you.

  Good luck!

• I lost the my computer icon on my screen.

  My computer icon disappeared from my office.  I used the time capsule to try back-up at an earlier date and perhaps recover it, without success.

  I can always find my applications... I tried to copy the icon in the finder and paste them into a folder on the desktop, but which is not allowed.  I remember way back that this icon/folder is 'blessed', but its been too long that I've known what exactly it means / meant.

  If anyone out there has had this experience, I would appreciate an answer!

  Open the Finder, then go to the menu bar, click Finder > Preferences , then select the general tab, and then select: hard drives.

• Why you don't put a "missed call" icon on the status bar?

  Hello and sorry for my English, I hope you understand me.

  Why you don't put a "missed call" icon on the status bar for example next to the wifi icon?

  The problem is, I missed a lot of calls, because I don't see a for example missed call when im listening to music or when I use the maps in my car and my iphone is always turned on. I often go out to my car for 3-5 minutes, because I work in the service of delivery. When im not in the car and someone calls me, I can't see it when I'm back in the car. The missed call is in the home screen on the phone visible (visible?) icon.

  Sometimes, I have 3 or 5 missed calls, my wife is angry about this, my patronized too, they call me twice every time, or I have to watch every time every 5 minutes on the home screen the phone icon to see if I have a missed call.

  The problem is every time when the iphone is still on and I not always in the middle.

• Satellite A30-921 PSA33E - no sound and the missing "speaker" icon

  Some time ago, I lost the sound and also the missing "speaker" icon.
  But the sounds in the control panel and all its grayed out. Restarted the system and everything has been restored.

  Once again lost both and rebooted but is more than this noise of restoration. Icon was back at the helm of the tasks, but when you click on it, all greyed out.

  Uninstalled the audio driver and used the disk utility to try to restore the sound, but does not work: visited the download from Toshiba site and I tried the Realtek driver, no luck. Checked with my Bios Update and I have the latest version.

  What is going on???

  If anyone can help...

  Congratulations to all.

  Hello

  I think that you must first remove the old sound driver.
  Check if there is an entry in Control Panel-> Add & Remove programs.

  In addition, you should go to the Device Manager and should remove the sound card in the list of devices.
  Just mark the sound card and remove it.
  Reboot the laptop.

  After that restart of the operating system (Win XP) should start looking for a new device and should ask the audio driver.
  This is the time to point the driver package, and files that you downloaded from the Toshiba European page.

  Check to see if that would help!

  Hi DianeCosic,

  What operating system or version of Windows do you use?

  We would need to know that in order to help you better.  If you still see the desktop and My Documents on your Start menu, you should be able to recreate the shortcuts by right-clicking on them from there.

  In addition, if something has changed on your computer, you can do a system restore to a previous point before the show began.

  Please, let us know if we can help you.

  Thank you!

• 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.

• Cannot find the "My Computer" icon; I have icon "Computer" but it is NOT THE SAME as "My Computer"... Help!

  I'm looking for the "My Computer" icon. I do not have the icon workstation; I made the different "tasks and tips" to supposedly turn on and I DO HAVE ICON CALLED 'COMPUTER' ON MY DESKTOP.  However, 'COMPUTER' is not equal to ' MY COMPUTER ' on this system.

  The 'My Computer', I want TO open a box with the usual File, Edit, View, Favorites, tools, and help under the blue bar containing the words 'My Computer' and the image of the icon in the left corner.   I want to choose 'Tools' that will 'gray out', the 'back' and 'forward' buttons and leaves an icon file with blue-green arrow pointing to the sky, research (with the microscope icon), folders (with the icon files) and a multi-dropdown button in the next line of command icons.  Below, is address, which should show the icon and the words of my computer.  Under the present is called 'Folder Options' box with 3 three topics on the left: tasks system, other places, and details. the first item under details, Workstation should be written in bold black.  On the upper area of the Folder Options, there are 4 four tabs: general, opinion, Types of files and offline files.  In the 'View' tab, I should be able to see the views of folders on top with 2 two buttons (apply to all records and reset all folders) and a list drop down in the bottom; advanced settings one of these subfolders in advanced settings should be: files and folders hidden.  I should be able to select that subfolder and get two 2 options: do not show the hidden files and folders and Show hidden files and folders, I would choose.

  The "Computer" icon that appears is called 'Computer' and opens the box with options to organize, System properties, uninstall or change a program, map network drive, and open the Panel control and it shows different drives on the computer, devices, network, and other information.

  Can someone tell me PLEASE how to access "My Computer"?  And, if it is a really stupid question, I apologize in advance.  But I've looked everywhere I know to look and I'm not.  Thank you very much.

  So the answer to my question is, "Yes, * I * am coming from an older operating system."  (I was wondering if your experience which has been remote or not).

  The problem is that many of the features of the file Explorer (it is really what we're talking about here) / appearance changed with Vista / Windows 7/Windows 8/Windows 8.1 in the ~ 13 years since the release of Windows XP you are looking at the example of what it should look like you.  ;-)

  The 'my computer' in Windows XP does not exist (as it was in Windows XP.)  The look of crayola disappeared.

  File Edition display tools help

  <-- still="" there.=""  press="" alt.=""  it="" will="" pop="" down.=""  want="" it="">

  Close all open windows 'computer '.

  Open a window 'computer '.

  Click on 'Tools' (after you press ALT while in 'Computer' and carries it) and choose "Folder Options".

  'View' tab there, I suggest you choose the following (Check/select, uncheck all the options not mentioned) under the "Advanced settings..."

  • Always show menus
  • File to display on the photos icon
  • Displays the size of file in folder tips
  • Display the full path in the title bar (Classic theme only)
  • Do not show hidden files, folders or drives
  • Hide the protégés of the files of the operating system (recommended)
  • Windows folders in a separate process of launch
  • See drive letters
  • See the encrypted or NTFS compressed color
  • View the description of pop-up for the folder and desktop items
  • The Wizard (recommended) sharing
  • Select the element type in the view

  Once these are the only elements to be activated, click on 'Apply' at the bottom and then click "Apply to folders" to the top of the window and then click 'OK' at the bottom.

  The top of the 'Computer' window, choose 'View' and see if there is a check mark next to the "Status bar" in the menu drop-down selection.  If it is, leave it alone (press ESC on your keyboard) if it is not one, click it.  The next time you select the 'View' menu, there should be a checkmark next to the "status bar".

  Read this.  It will help you to get used to the new way (beyond XP) use 'File Explorer' ('computer')...

• the computer icon!

  I downloaded an image from a wikipedia computer icon because I wanted to use it as my computer icon. Is there a way I can change the file type of JPEG to dll without some sort of software to download? If someone could tell me how, I would be VERY happy! Thank you!

  ================================================
  If you simply want to use the image as a desktop icon... do you
  no need to convert it to. DLL. you need to convert is. ICO.

  The free software IrfanView can save an image file in the. ICO format.

  I know that you do not want to download anything but without software
  I don't know how you could convert to ICO.

  (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
  Restore point before installing software or updates)

  Download IrfanView
  http://MajorGeeks.com/IrfanView_d4253.html
  (filename: iview435_setup.exe)
  (uncheck if you don't want Google Chrome)

  Download plug-ins too...

  IrfanView plugins
  http://MajorGeeks.com/IrfanView_PlugIns_d4908.html
  (filename: irfanview_plugins_433_setup.exe)

  If you decide to install IrfanView... just drag and drop your photo on
  the icon for IrfanView and when the picture opens... click on... File /.
  Record under / ICO...

  FWIW... There are a lot of free ICO files that can be downloaded
  from the following site.
