I havent seen it with k2 before, but with some components, the browzer needs to be refreshed
Also, check with ftp and see if the directory components\com_k2 was created
You can reinstall over the top of the existing install, avoid importing joomla content more that once

Hi again!!!
Good news... I've found one solution:
Administration -> Extensions -> Module Manager: Show all administrator modules, enable "K2 Quick Icons (admin)" module on "icon" position in system template...
Now all K2 icons are shown in Administration Panel...
Optionally, "K2 Stats (admin)" module can be enabled on "cpanel" position in system template...
Regards!!!

Hello Yianni,
Did you clear your browser's cache?
You can always check Extensions => Manage if you have accidentally missed something.

It seems that something goes wrong with caching.
I clear joomla's cache, nothing happens.
I clear browser's cache, nothing happens.
Suddeenly after a few days the K2 appears in components menu.
Now I have installed K2 in another site on the same server and the problem appersa again...
Still wondering why.

Are you sure they're not server issues?
You should contact your hosting provider.

I Just made a test joomla 2.5.11 installation with softaculous on the server and then made a K2 installation. Everything works perfectly there...

Hello romagromov,
Are your permissions setting correct? You can check your configuration file and permissions through the System Information menu item.
Also try disabling the system cache altogether and tell me what happened.

Ok... Lets try a long shot..
Go to extensions => module manager and select the administrator modules.
Locate the admin menu module and toggle caching for this module.
You can even try to deactivate/re-enable this module.
If you deactivate it dont lose your page URL because you will have to activate it again from your DB.
Let me know how that went.

Ok, I did all steps you suggested.
I can't find option to toggle caching for this module, but it seems this module don't use caching
Also I tried to disable/enable module - no results...

Unfortunately I am not able to reproduce the issue.
You told me it works fine on all your other installations, so did you follow any different steps this time?
Any other extension you have not used in your other sites? Is this the first install or is was it an upgrade and finally did you unistall K2 at some point and reinstalled it. Have you disabled any K2 plugins?
Sorry for asking you all these questions and sounding like the holy inquisition but I want to reproduce the issue.

It very strange, but after several hours, K2 menu item displayed without my intervention...
I installed K2 many times on many sites before, but I have never seen same issue before.
Usually, I install K2 after joomla installation. But this time, I have installed couple components and plugins: FlexiContact, Jdownloads, Advanced Module Manager, JCE, Xmap, SEO Links, e.t.c.
Yes, FlexiContact and Jdownloads I use only on this site.
First install. But after I got this issue I tried to reinstall several times.
No, never.

Got same crazy deal on J2.5.11 (updated from 1.7.3):
No K2 menu-points shown in Joomla 2.5 administrator menu "Components"
Anyway everything looked fine in the database...
Not sure what did fix it:
I went to the Extensions Manager -> Manage
Filtred by "K2"
Unpublished the K2 (component) -> check-marked the unpublished component
Clicked "Refresh cache" -> Published the K2 component again
and I got my K2 menuitems in the admin components menu
:woohoo:
Which of the above steps did it I do not know...
Hope it might work for others

Maybe this can help you all.
For me it was a language issue. I was using a mix of english and italian in backend. After set frontend and backend with italian I see K2 component menu fine.
