    You have to reinstall AppIndicator/KStatusNotifierItem support for GNOME Shell with

    sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-shell-extension-appindicator

    The indicator-stickynotes will not work without it and will show the message from your question:

    $ indicator-stickynotes 
Indicator stickynotes already running.
