How do you label a Launcher icon which has no icon label
For example I added gtkpod but I have a black square where an icon should be. How do I add an icon?

First you can try to reinstall it at the Software Center.
If it does not work, check /usr/share/applications/gtkpod.desktop
it should look like this:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=gtkpod iPod Manager
GenericName=iPod Manager
Comment=Manage music and video on an Apple iPod
Exec=gtkpod
Icon=gtkpod
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=GTK;AudioVideo;
If the file matches this one check if you have the gtkpod icon in your icon theme /usr/share/icons/
should be under apps or devices.
Also if you have a custom .desktop
for gtkpod in ~/.local/share/applications/
you can rename the file foo-bar.old
, so the original file should work properly.
After you do everything above, just logout then back to restart unity.
Easier than creating .desktop files in my book, and works just as well.
