Why can I not copy and paste the FontAwesome icon fa-home? - font-awesome

I have FontAwesome version 4.6.3 installed locally. Copying and pasting icons, either from cheatsheet or Copy & Paste, generally works in any text editor (tested with vim and libreoffice). Some, however, do not work, like the home icon (fa-home []).
I think I face this very problem as described at this reddit post. As suggested in some comment, in this reddit post, I open FontAwesome using gucharmap. Right clicking on it shows only the home icon, no more. Double clicking on it, however, does not paste it below in the Text to copy: field, as it works with most of the icons.
Why is this so?

Icons for Drop-down Menu and Sidebar Minimizer no longer seen

So I'm not the most familiar with HTML, but I know enough to make very minor tweaks.
I had this issue all of a sudden where I updated my github page website, and a few icons were missing.
Sidebar toggle(top right of pic) and sub-menu dropdown chevrons:
Envelope icons next to email addresses:
The little icons for the sidebar minimizer, dropdown menu, and the "envelope" icons used to represent emails disappeared.
I redownloaded the template I built my website on just to check if I did something wrong: https://html5up.net/editorial
But even in the newly downloaded file, those icons were missing, whereas when I first downloaded them, they weren't
Given that this issue also happened in a freshly downloaded template (but as you see on the website preview the icons are fine), I'm baffled as to what the issue might be.
Thanks in advance for any help!!
The icons missing are F0C9, F078 and F0E0.
You tried to put the FontAwesome CDN in the main.css file, change:
#import url(fontawesome-all.min.css);
For this:
#import url(https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.6.3/css/all.css);
Remember that the file all.css (FontAwesome) depends on several online fonts

These icons are includes via FontAwesome, so either you forgot to include FontAwesome or moved the files. Make sure there is a fontawesome-all.min.css in your /css folder and the corresponding webfonts folder exists and contains the FontAwesome-files

Missing icons in opencart 2.0.1.1

I have opencart 2.0.1.1 version and it was working fine. Suddenly I found that the icons like contact us, wish list, search were missing. I tried to find the icons in images folder but couldn't find it out.
The first image is the header image where the contact us and other icons are missing.
In the second image the search icon and the cart icon in add to cart button is missing
The third image is the search result and the home icon is missing and the arrow is misplaced.
Even the arrow in the slide bar is missing.
Should I upload the images again. If I should upload where should I do that.
Can somebody help me? Thanks
The easiest way to debug missing images is take a look in your browser's web inspector as the page loads and you should be able to see which assets are missing and where they should be located.
The Firebug extension for Firefox is extremely helpful for this and many other basic client side debugging tasks.
I guess your are missing the "font awesome" font.
Please check your folder: OPENCART ROOT->catalog/view/javascript/font-awesome/fonts
And check if you have 5 files named:
FontAwesome.otf
fontawesome-webfont.eot
fontawesome-webfont.svg
fontawesome-webfont.ttf
fontawesome-webfont.woff
If not, download opencart again and copy over those files.

HTML Link not working with my quotations

So I am starting to learn HTML and I am running into some weird things. I am trying to just use a link to go to a specific webpage. I typed in the code but it gave me an error saying it could not find the link on my desktop. However, when I copy and paste the exact same code from a website it works fine. Here are the two codes so you can compare, the top one works and the bottom one doesn't.
This is a link
<a href=“https://www2.housing.wisc.edu/dining/ordering/”>This is a link</a>
I was wondering if it had to do with the slightly different quotation marks, if it is I am still not sure how to fix it, because the computer autocorrects the quotations to that format.
If the comments haven't answered your question yet, yes you need to use a slightly different quotation mark. HTML only accepts the single typewriter (non-curly) quotation mark ' ' or the double one " ". Or, in your case, you can choose not to use quotes at all, unless the value contains a space or equal sign.
What are you using? Office? Open up a text editor like Notepad or download Notepad++ (free) and you won't have to deal with auto correct.
In any case the code you posted above works for me.
Open Notepad.
copy and paste
<html>
<body>
This is a link
</body>
</html>
click SAVE AS and instead of saving as a .txt file save as a .html to your Desktop.
Double click the newly created file, and it should open in a web browser.(If not you have to right click on the file and select "open with..." and choose a web browser
Click the link.

Color Scheme for code not working - Sublime Text 2

Sometimes Sublime Text 2 will recognize my code with its color scheme and other times it won't. I do a lot of pasting code into the code editor and editing it, but I rarely write code in it, mostly editing my older code. Its really helpful having the color scheme!
You can also set the coding language by clicking the bottom right corner "Plain Text" to open a list of languages to choose from. Click the relevant language and the Sublime will do the coloring according to your selection.
If you are just opening new files and pasting text in, the default syntax is "Plain Text", thus no highlighting. You can set the syntax in the buffer by opening the command palette and searching for "Set Syntax: ". If that isn't what is happening, please try to give more information.

Go to a color page and copy just the < ? and php from the top. Go to the white text page and highlight/paste.
This worked for me. i had a problem with Arduino color coding but now i solved that with the help of this trick. You can also set the coding language by clicking the bottom right corner "Plain Text" to open a list of languages to choose from.

Javascript Syntax was not working for me, so changed to Java. Color shading appeared.
