Volume and other indicators disappeared in the classic desktop

  • 772

I updgraded my ubuntu to 12.04 LTS and then installed gnome classic since I do not like unity. But then the volume icon at the up-right corner has disappeared. How can I get it back to that place. Thanks for any help.

    from your screenshot, it looks like you have removed the indicator applet complete applet

    enter image description here

    Alt+Win+ right click the panel to add the applet. You can similarly remove the other gnome-applets.

    If the applet doesnt appear in your list, install the applet from software-center:

    Install via the software center

    or via the command line:

    sudo apt-get install indicator-applet-complete

  2. I had this problem too. Run gnome-sound-applet from the command line to check that it is installed and working.

    To start the sound applet automatically, go to System Tools>Preferences>Startup Applications and add Command gnome-sound-applet

  3. sudo apt-get install indicator-applet-complete

sudo apt-get install dconf-editor

    than refer to the following figure to make visible the applets that you need. enter image description here

  4. Alt+Win+ right click the panel to add an applet.

    There are two kinds of indicator applets. I dont know the exact translation, but there is a standard and a full version. Try the full version.
