My icon on my desktop (macbook) disappeared, how do I get that back on there?

He just disappeared and I would on my dashboard. He has been there for a long time, but it has recently disappeared. I went to the applications and tried to drag, no luck. I even did a right click on it to see if it will say to add to the dashboard... No... help please. I use it to go back when I'm done to examine a file it takes me off.

Thank you

  • MY button "List all tabs" disappeared, how do I get that back?

    I used to have a small arrow in the top right corner of my screen called 'list all tabs' when I clicked it, it gave me a drop down of all my open tabs. Somehow he disappeared and I do not know how to retrieve
    I tried to go in customize, but could not find it.
    Help, please!

    This appears only if you have enough tabs open. IIRC the default value is 7.

    Once you have several tabs that they will not all display and you'll get the appearing scroll arrows which allow you to see the hidden tabs and the small arrow below to display the drop-down list.

    If you do not have a lot of tabs open, but no arrow, try Firefox in its safe mode

    Maybe you have a few add-on to interfere

  • I had a bookmark that seems to have disappeared - how can I get that back

    I did not remove this bookmark and cannot find in anywhere in my favorites or my scrap basket. Is it possible to get it back?

    Have you tried a search in case you accidentally move to another folder?

    If you've accidentally deleted bookmarks, then use "organize > Cancel ' in the Bookmark Manager (Bookmarks > show all bookmarks) to recover.

    Hold the button is the first of three buttons next to the back and forward buttons on the toolbar in the library (Bookmark Manager).

    That only works if you have not closed Firefox.

    If it does not work so that you can restore bookmarks from a JSON backup.

    This will replace all current bookmarks and you lose the favorites that have been added since the backup was created.

    See:

    In this case, you need to export current bookmarks to an HTML file before you perform the restore and import this HTML file after you restore the backup JSON.

  • change the size of the icon screen '100% ' disappeared. How can I get that back.

    I had my computer fixed recently.  No, I have to change the size of the content on the screen to go when I'm on the internet?  I use 100% by the icon at the bottom of my screen and it has now disappeared.  How can I get that back?  Why have I to change the size of the Web page after my computer has been repaired?

    I guess you're talking about Internet Explorer...
    He could reappear if you turn on the status bar.  To enable it, start Internet Explorer, and then
    View-> toolbars-> and make sure that there is a check in front of the "status bar".
    If you do not have a menu 'View' then press the 'Alt' key once.

    Also, you should be able to go to 100% by pressing the 'Ctrl' key while pressing "0" (zero).

    You can also zoom in and out by holding down the 'Ctrl' key and turning the mouse wheel.
