    [SOLVED] Lost the pictures icon and music icon on the places menu

    (Maverick question)

    Just as the title says, I lost the pictures and music icons on the places menu. When I browse the folders from nautilus I see the icons, but when I click on the places menu I see the regular folder icon and not the special pictures icon or music icon

    How can I recover them?

    Regards,

    Open home and drag them to the side panel on the left.

    Thanks for the answer but it didn't work. When I open home the panel on the left has the icons as they should be and if I do what you tell me to do, nothing happens. In Menu/Places, the icons are still the ones from regular folders. Maybe it is a bug?

    Regards,

    Try to correct it with the options of "Ubuntu Tweak", worked for me one time.

    you can also try right clicking a panel (might have to be over some text like Places in the top panel) and selecting menu editor and removing the item in the places menu and then adding it back again, hope this helps!

    The "Places" menu isn't covered by the menu editor.
