Missing icons in preferences in the Apple menu

• Does not open the system preferences of the Apple menu

  Anyone know of a good solution for this?

  A few weeks ago I started noticing that I couldn't open my application system preferences in the Apple Menu bar (via the Apple logo > system, or via the WiFi icon Preferences > network, or even Preferences by right-clicking on the desktop to change the desktop background, etc.).

  WHAT WORKS:

  I can open the system preferences if I click directly on the application icon or you try to open it from the dock.

  I can open the app in the Apple menu if I register as another user.

  WHAT DOES NOT WORK:

  The problem does not go away when I restart in mode 'start '.

  The problem does not go away when I run disk utility.

  The problem does not go away when I remove the "Finder" and "System Preferences".plist file in the Preferences folder in the user's library.

  The problem does not go away when I remove the files "Preferences panel" bury of the Cache in the user's library folder.

  The problem does not go away when I zap the PRAM.

  The problem does not go far if I replace the system preferences application from a recent backup.

  I was about to just try and re-install the MacOS, but thought I would try the forums first, since the Apple Support site said that it should not be necessary if the problem is only limited to a user's profile. I found a lot of entries in the forums for this issue dated a few years ago and have tried most of the solutions, but I don't think that you can repair the permissions of the disc more on El Capitan.

  Anyone have any ideas? Thank you.

  Given all of the things you tried that don't work, over time it would take to troubleshoot more, you could restore OS X in 45 minutes to an hour on a broadband connection using OS X Recovery.

  Start your Mac while pressing the command + R keys. From there, you should be able to access the built in utility to verify and repair the disk from startup (if necessary) and OS X using OS X recoveryof restoration.

• Software update in the Apple Menu

  Update of OS X Mavericks a week ago.  My printer Photosmart C4750 print however, the following message has been displayed - "you must install the software to use this printer.  To install the software, choose software update from the Apple menu.  If the software for your printer is not available in software update, contact the manufacturer of your printer. »

  Apple has no update of the HP printer software.  I went to the HP download site and I quote:

  "NOTE: If you have recently updated your computer with the mavericks a previous Mac OS, there is no need to install additional software."  Send a print job from your computer, and if the printer prints, you don't need to continue these steps. »

  Again, the printer works but the "error message" about having to install the software is not going away.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  First restart your Mac, try resetting the printing system and check to see if that can help you:

  * Be aware that reset the printer system will eliminate any existing queue and reset all custom settings driver.

  Click on the Apple menu and then click on System Preferences.
  Select Printer & Scanner.
  Right click (or Ctrl + click) your product with the Printers list in the left panel and then click on reset printing system.
  Click OK to confirm the reset.
  Type your user name and password.
  Click OK. The printing system resets.

  Now, try to add the printer again and check for the difference.

  If the same behavior persists, try to install the following package and check any changes:

• Turn the off "Stop" in the Apple menu?

  The power button on my MacBook Pro mid-2009 no longer works. I accidentally closed my Mac and would not restart. After searching the Web, I finally managed to restart it short-circuited something inside the computer. I would like to disable "Shut Down" in the Apple menu, so he won't be stopped by chance. Is this possible? If so, how do you?

  Hello

  It is possible, but by modifying the system files can be dangerous. First of all, make sure that you have a backup of your Mac.

  Also, if I may give you some advice, would be better to replace your power button rather than play with the motherboard everytime your computer turns off...

  Happy tweaking!

• Lag/slow loading icon in "Programs" in the Start Menu

  Why should he wait a few seconds for the icons in all programs to load up in my menu start? I forced a rebuild of the cache of my icon, fresh win7 x 64 on AMD Phenom X 4 9950 4 GB RAM so no reason for this slow right?

  It will be still much slower at any time rebuild you your icon cache: because rebuild the cache clears all the icons.  Then the next time, they should be displayed, the system must open each file in the menu start one by one and read the icon.  Because the hard disk is the slowest part of any computer, this causes a very significant delay.

  The icon cache is also rebuilt (erased) when run cleaning disc and some other 3rd party systems cleaning.

  It should be slower after any kind of reconstruction after the first screen, there should be a snapshot whenever you open the menu (unless you rebuild your new icon cache).

• I don't have the desktop icons, task bar or the start menu. All I have is my wallpaper.

  I think I'm done inadvertently the Explorer.exe process when trying to figure out which bogged down my laptop. I have now no start menu, no desktop icons, no task bar... nothing! The paper just painted. When I right click on the wallpaper I get nothing. I have no idea how to get that back. If I had not left my email up, I wouldn't even be able to access the internet!

  Hello.

  You should be able to press Ctrl + SHIFT + ESC to open the Task Manager.
  From there, click on file > new task (run...), then type "explorer.exe" in the dialog box and click on enter.
  Of course, should explore back upward during restart as well.

• Why is the Favorites icon is more in the Favorites menu bar in the 23.0.1 version

  The icon was on the right side of the toolbar of bookmarks with the tag "bookmarks" beside him. In the 23.0.1, version it is moved to the right of the home page icon and the label "bookmarks" is no longer displayed. It seems that IE10.

  The "actions" based on the location of the bookmarks toolbar button changed to Firefox 23.0. The new default location seems to be on the Navigation toolbar; For me, it was with a new profile to the right of the search bar and to the left of the "arrow" to download / download progress display button. When he is on the Navigation bar "Bookmarks" tab is not shown, but an arrow 'drop-mark' is here. As well as the Bookmarks button doesn't automatically move himself when the personal bar does not appear as with previous releases since Firefox 4.0.

  You can move this button anywhere you wish through the Customize feature to the toolbars.
