White shadow in top left corner of screen when unlocking with fingerprint only
White shadow has started showing up in top left corner on the transition from lock screen, then disappears. This is new, and it concerns me that it could be a progressive problem. Is this a hardware or software issue? Am I going to have to take it in?
I have an issue with a white rectangular box appearing in the top left corner of my laptop screen.
Do you have any Modern UI Fullscreen (MUF) apps running then? Sounds like a thumbnail for one that you could dig out of the corner by using your mouse pointer or see the whole MUF bar by pressing Win-Ctrl-Tab. If it is staying around
as an artifact that would indicate a problem with your GPU. To change that you could try using Internet Options, Advanced tab, Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering.

My Magic Mouse (wireless) paired with my 2010 iMac: Often at startup the cursur just sits in top left corner of screen, frozen. Not a battery problem. New. I take batteries out, reboot (a real pain)... then ok. HELP!
Hello:
Try resetting the PRAM and SMC.

On my iPhone when I go on phone to view my contacts on the top left corner there is a circle with a arrow ( like a refresh icon ), just want to know what is it?
That's exactly what it does, refresh your contacts. As an example if you add a contact on your Mac or iPad and you use iCloud to sync them altogether, then this can be used to refresh the contacts on your iPhone.

Small white square in top left corner of some Quicktime movies I make?
I have been wondering what that Small white square is that appears in top left corner of some Quicktime movies I make? When I export to Flash and upload, or even just upload to Vimeo an H.264 file, there it is, little white square. I put a still frame up online here http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4036/4682390438bb0c16da2eb.jpg
Cheers.
Final Cut Pro 7.0.2., Quicktime Pro 7.6.6, Quicktime Player 10.0...Solved it by de-installing Adobe Flash Player plug-in and installing it again. All good now

When i turned my iMac (Lion OS X 10.7.2) on, the lockscreen shows up with about 1/2 to 1/4 of the lockscreen in the top left corner of the screen. It still works but is just smaller and the rest of the screen is black. Ive tried rebooting and theres nothing on the web that has a similar story. Its not a huge problem, it just annoys me sometimes. Its also done this in previous version of the OS its just continuing to do so. Thanks in advance
Maybe some of the solutions in here Troubleshooting issues with video can help.
Especially the SMC- and PRAM-reset and/or the Safe Mode.

Group Chat hidden window blocks mouse clicks in top-left corner of screen
Hey guys, I'm not sure if this is the right place to report Group Chat bugs or not, but we're using Office Communicator Server 2007 R2 Group Chat, Version 3.5.6907.0.
The problem is that Group Chat places a hidden window in the top-left corner of the screen, and intermittently it blocks mouse mouse hovers and clicks. Many people in our office experience this, so it's not just myself. Closing Group Chat fixes
the problem, and when you click Exit on the Group Chat tray icon, you can actually see the "Logging out" window appear where the mouse clicks are being blocked.
Here's a pic showing where the transparent Group Chat box is lying over my Visual Studio app, so I'm unable to click File, Edit, View, or Git. I used UISpy to find and identify
the transparent window.
- Dan - "Can't never could do anything"Another user with the exact issue as described above. After spending a lot of time troubleshooting the problem I have narrowed down the events that produces the 'hidden window'. If GroupChatConsole.exe is running and the user locks and then unlocks
their computer, this problem occurs. This would explain why closing and re-opening Group Chat appears to 'fix' the problem. If the computer is locked and unlocked again though (with Group Chat running), the problem returns. It doesn't matter if
the main Group Chat window is open or minimized to the task bar or notification area.
We have tried all the basic troubleshooting such as uninstall/reinstall, reboot, etc. We even imaged a brand new laptop and migrated the user to the newer model, but problem starting occurring again after a few days.
I love troubleshooting challenging problems, but this is something I have never encountered before... and after tirelessly searching the internet, doesn't seem like many others have, either. I hope someone else can provide some more insight or
clues to permanently fix this problem!
Best Regards,

Help - Duplicate icons in top left corner of screen
Just been using my iPad, and during an app update (a free one from the apps store), my screen suddenly changed, and now the home screen has a pile of icons on top of each other in the top left corner of the screen. These icons are duplicates of the ones on my home screen, and the ones in the original places don't work.
I can drag these new icons away from the top left, and I end up with two of each icon on the home screen, but only one works. Also, I can drop them anywhere on the screen, and other icons don't move to make way like they did before. However, as soon as I scroll across to another screen and then scroll back to the home screen, the pile of icons is back in the top left.
There is also a new icon called Productivity, which looks like a container for other icons. I have no idea where this came from, as I've never seen it before. If I open it, it has three of my apps inside, messages, ibooks and notes. I can drag these back onto the home screen, but again, when I scroll away and back, things are as they were with the three apps inside this productivity.
Anyone any idea what's going on? The iPad is pretty unusable now.
Thanks for any help.Three of your apps ended up in a folder that was somehow created on your iPad. That folder was named Productivity by the iPad.
Restart or reset the iPad and see if you can control the apps on the screen afterward.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. -
Icon Stuck in Top Left Corner of Screen
I have an icon of some sorts stuck in the top left hand corner of my screen. It's not really an icon, it's a tiny box and it was a box with a folder icon inside and when I would click on the folder it would show me the contents. Than I deleted the folder and now it's just a question mark inside a box and when I click it it says empty. I try to move/delete it but I can't. It's like stuck there. It's just a tiny square with a question mark inside. It's not part of the desktop though because when I swipe down with all four fingers on the trackpad to do Expose, it shows up as a program that's running but I can't get it off my screen. I tried restarting and shuttting down my computer but still nothing!
Press Command-Option-Esc and see what it's called in the window that pops open, you can Force Quit it from there but it also sounds like it's in your StartUp/Login items and should be removed from there too ? (System Preferences/Accounts - yourname Login items)

If you can, try and put your iPhone into recovery mode and then use iTunes to restore it to see if it resolves all the issues that you are seeing with the service as well as the powering off.

Tried un pairing the Bluetooth mouse and reconnecting it. No change. Tried both those resets people suggested to others in the forums, that didn't help either. Borrowed my friends USB mouse for his Mac, the same thing. Cursor will not move, but the click works.(this is what is happening for both)
If you are kind enough to offer help, please be aware of the following: this is my first Mac. I really know nothing about them.Yes, once when I first noticed it, and each time I tried both the pram reset, and when I did the other reset (holding down p&r and the other two buttons before the grey screen, and waited for it to reboot from there). Can't remember what that reset was called

just loaded the new version of firefox. i went into "library" and told the computer to forget the mp3tube toolbar and it got rid of all the toolbars and also shows no search engine in new tabs, and has no page back or page forward arrows in top left corner of screen. how do i at least get the page back and forward function enabled?
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in Full Screen mode with all toolbars hidden.
* Press F11 to toggle full screen mode (Firefox/File > Full Screen)
If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" (Linux, Windows)
* If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
* If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

Red light appearing in top left corner of touchscreen
Has anyone else experienced this problem, where intermittently, a red light edge appears in top left corner of screen?
Doesn't always appear.....which makes me think there is a defect with the screen itself.....any thoughts?
Solved!
Go to Solution.It's the notification indicator. Swipe down from the corner to show the status bar, and you'll see an exclamation mark icon. Tap it to see the notification.

So I got is iPad as a gift and the same issues I had with my iPhone 4S is also happening with my iPad. Will Apple cover the problem as it lies within there updates or something. All I know I have taken perfect care of both products and volume is distorted. Can't listen to music, I get booted off the web all the time, I can't even chat with Apple icare it won't work and no service shows on top left corner. What is wrong with Apple products? I'm thinking it's time to switch! I've had to change my iPhone twice now......first time for mic not working and then camera shutter kept sticking. Same on my iPad........ I don't want to pay to get this fixed as it's not my fault this is happening...... It's software apparently?
This really is starting to feel like a hardware issue than a software one.
Especially if hearing noises when you connecting up your iPad for charging.
Something happened to your iPad that has nothing to do with a software update.
This is why I recommend that
I can't help you any farther.
It sounds as if you really need to take this iPad in for a repair.
Since you are reluctant to do this, there is nothing more I can suggest to you.
Good Luck on whatever you decide to do. -
Just about to get a iphone 5 from virgin mobile, the "virgin" in the top left corner is throwing me off, if i unlock it will it go away?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
That will go away if you use your iPhone with another carrier's network, but in that case, you will see the name of that carrier at the top left corner. That means that the Virgin text at the top left corner has nothing to do with having the device locked, but it shows because you are using a Virgin SIM card -
I just had my iMac sent away for repair as it kept heating up to the point where you could not touch the top left corner of the machine. It really only heats up when i open iPhoto and it is generating thumbnails for all the events. (Some reason it has lost all the thumbnails).
The Mac came back yesterday and they replaced the fans and cleaned out the machine and it has passed all heating tests.As user Seventy one recommended above, the "iStatPro" Free software is very useful in determining just how hot your internal hardware components are getting. You could post some of the temp readings from it here so we can comment on them.
