Unity Lenses Missing (files/folders, applications)
The File & Folders lens and default Applications lens is missing from my dock. How can I get them back?
I attempted the guide here: http://www.webupd8.org/2011/04/how-to-reset-unity-launcher-icons-or.html
All the icons came back except the two missing lenses. unity-place-applications and unity-place-files are both currently installed.
Solution 1:
-
Make sure you have those packages installed:
unity-lens-applications unity-lens-files
-
Make sure you have those two files in
/usr/share/unity/lenses
:applications.lens files.lens
-
If it still doesn't work, try to reinstall the two packages:
sudo apt-get purge unity-lens-applications unity-lens-files sudo apt-get install unity-lens-applications unity-lens-files
-
If it still doesn't work, I suggest reporting a bug report:
ubuntu-bug unity # if unity is the wrong package, others will fix it
