Bricked? Red circle/dot LED indicator adjacent to speaker

Wife's iPhone acting up. Warm, tempermental boots/recharges despite repeated resets, and a red indicator shows up that noone seems to recognize: an incomplete circle like "c" with a dot in the middle, perhaps 2mm diam total, illuminated LED apparently, off-screen but on front panel to the immediate left of what I presume is the speaker slot (silver mesh slit at top of screen on face).
Once in a while I can get it to start up (cool in fridge, reset) but on connection with Mac it flakes out again. Contacts appear corroded (cuprous green moss).
Willing to toss/replace but she wants her un-synched data. Rogers won't repair, off-warranty. Arrggh.

Same problem, John -- though my number is 51. Do hope someone out there can be of help!

Why does my music have a red circle with a square dot beside it?

On my iPad 3, in music, some of my songs have a red circle with a square dot, the songs are grayed out and I am unable to play them. Is there a new setting with ios 7? Does it no longer play mp3's?

Here's what I had to do, no thanks to the others on here who go at it like Apple, delete and restore.
No, you don't have to delete and restore. Just open a folder on your computer, call it something like iPad music, keep it open, open iTunes, select all your music, copy and paste it in the folder you just created, delete all your music from iTunes (relax, you just copied it into that folder). Select all the music in that folder, drop it back onto your playlist. Now, I renamed my playlist, because it was called untitled, originally, so if that doesn't work, rename, or delete and recreate your playlist, copy the music back over, sync, and they will play.
Worked for me, anyhow. Good luck!

Red circle with blue dot next to a mail message, red circle with blue dot next to a mail message

Received a mail message on my iPhone and next toit there is a red circle with a blue dot inside it. Normal messages have a solid blue dot when unread. What does the red circle with blue dot mean?

LMS111 wrote:
I would agree with Barney if the question had been an e-mail in the inbox but in the sent folder I still wonder why the blue dot. I also had this happen for the first time today 6/27/13. I resent both figuring it might mean the mail had not been sent properly.
No, it means unread, had you opened the mail in the sent folder the blue dot would have gone away.

Hi Paid4Upload and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
Have you recently installed any LED type applications or themes? I would also assume that the LED is red?
Thanks.

Dotted circles next to songs, won't sync, red circle with square?

I've tried everything and NOTHING works... At first I had those stupid dotted circles next to every song. I restored it to original settings(as told by apple support), then re-synced everything and the songs started downloading and I was ecstatic. But then about half the songs were playable and the other half had the red circle with square inside. I was also told it will take awhile for them fully download considering I have somany songs. I waited over 12 hours with the ipod still connected and nothing changed.
I then saw that someone else on this posted and said to uncheck 'sync songs', sync the device, then click on sync songs and re-sync it, but then that resorted back to where I first started, back to every song having those dotted circles next to them.
I've contacted apple about this issue numerous time and it just seems like they have no idea what they're doing. They were really nice and tried to help as much as they could, but in the end they were absolutely no help and the problem still existed. If anyone could please help me, I'd gladly appreciate it. I have no what to do anymore besides buy a new iPod, and I'd rather not over a stupid problematic thing like this.
I started a new discussion because no one was replying to the older ones anymore.
Every single song is like and they won't sync.... It is frustrating me so much. I listen to music constantly through-out my day and It annoys me that I hjave to stay at the computer to listen to them. Just a few weeks ago everything was all peachy and worked. In the past weeks I've updated to iOS 7.0.2 and then iOS 7.0.3 the other day. I sometimes wish I hadn't updated to iOS 7, because I never had an issue like this before in the past 10 years of me owning and Apple iPod.

An "other" that large usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files.
First try:
"First you go settings/general/usage/music/then left swipe over music and press delete and you would think it deletes your music but it doesn't instead it deletes your other but make sure your ipod is connected to a computer while doing this"
as recommended by:
How do I get rid of "other" storage: Apple Support Communities
Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up

Red circles with square dots in center

What is the reason I suddenly saw this red circles appearing on a whole series of songs?

Looks like you have a corrupted music library. Sometimes this happens after an iOS update. Give this a try:
1. Open iTunes on your PC.
2. Connect your iPhone to your PC with a USB cable.
3. Select "File" on iTunes.
4. Select "Devices".
5. Choose "Transfer purchases".
6. Let your iPhone sync.
7. Disconnect your iPhone after syncing.
8. You should now play your music files on your iPhone without having any problem.

IOS 6.1.3 installed on iPad but no red circle with 1 on the Settings icon

Hi,
Looking at an iPad to buy on ebay and specifically want to get one with version 6.1.3 still installed. I emailed seller, they sent pic of the About screen in Settings which shows it's on this version (also, it's an iPad 4th Gen, 128GB, if that helps), but in pics of the item, displaying the icons, on the Settings icon there is NO red circle with the 1 in it. Why would this be? I've never seen this before (everyone I know still on this version, on either iPhone or iPad, has this little red circle with the 1 in it, obviously indicating the update, which none of us diehards wanna do, til we absolutely have to of course). Does this mean that this iPad is NOT upgradeable, ever? Would love some help on this, don't want to purchase this iPad until I know why that red circle ISN'T there.
Thanks!

Hello mom_5_01,
The following article should be quite beneficial in your endeavor to update your iPad.
iPad: Unable to update or restore
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4097
You may encounter the following symptoms while updating or restoring your iPad:
iPad continually restarts but never displays the Home screen.
An update or restore did not complete and the iPad is no longer recognized in iTunes.
iPad stops responding, showing the Apple logo with no progress bar or a stopped progress bar, for over ten minutes.
If this occurs, you can place iPad into recovery mode and attempt to restore again. If iTunes displayed an alert with an error code, see this article before attempting the steps outlined here.
Cheers,
Allen

What does the red circle with #1 mean on an specific app?

My App store shows that all apps are up to date, but 2 games have a red circle with number 1: 4 elements and Call of Atlantis

I'm not sure how your question relates to apps and games on the iPad. This is the Using iPad forum. I have never downloaded an app in the Mac App Store. The information that I provided is in reference to games and apps using the iPad, but I assume that the Mac App Store works the same way.
Bearing in mind that I have never downloaded from the App Store on the Mac, as I can best remember, only Apple applications and software updates would show up via Software Update. For instance, prior to the Mac App Store in Snow Leopard, any updates that were or are available in any third party applications on the Mac would have their own updaters and will not be available via Software Update. Microsoft Office for example had it's own Microsoft Updater application and those updates never came via Software Update. Software update does not work for third party apps.
Apparently, if you purchase for the Mac App Store, updates are indicated like they are on the iPad with the red number in the circle on the App Store icon in the dock.

Nokia maps.changing red circle to an arrow?

Hi there,
Is there a way to change the red circle ( the dot) to an arrow? I know it changes when you're navigating to a place, but can I change it when I'm just moving around?

Unfortunately that is not possible.
The new nokia maps 3.0 adds a feature that may be useful to you. You can set it so that the map points in the direction of travel, instead of always pointing north.
Maps 3.0 is still a beta and not compatible with many models yet.

Please help my led indicator isnt working?

hi i literally got my blackberry on friday and now my led light has stopped working all together.... doesnt flash green red blue with bluetooth. iv checked all the settings and they all say its on. i have downloaded things like ringtones and color id where the led indicator was flashing lots of colors and i dont know whether theyve done something to it? my lights defo working as when i switch it off it goes red.
please help x

I'm not that familiar with the color id app but I would be willing to bet it might be causing the problem. Try deleting it and see if the led starts working again.
Also, what kind of device do you have?

Solid Blue LED Indicator

My Torch is displaying a solid blue LED indicator. My keyboard is not illuminating but I'm sure that's due to the light sensor being close to the LED. I've seen various items listed for this light; I do not have Bluetooth enabled; I do not have access to a music server. Between this and the freeze-ups after I unlock the device, I'm not happy here.

a very frustrating problem.
i dont claim to have a solution but i'll tell you what happened to mine!
first of all before the solid blue light came on i'd accidentally splashed the handset with water
(nothing major, thought nothing of it, wiped it off and carried on.)
the next time i looked at the handset the solid blue had appeared. gah.
i spent several hours looking at web search results, tried all that hard reset and bluetooth on/off garb.
no joy. got mad! dont have any trusted permissions for apps ive downloaded, dont have a music thing or any other bluetooth accesories either.
so i was practically tearing my hair out and going up the wall with rage. decided to whinge about it on my friends
facebook wall (via facebook for blackberry.)
having vented my spleen sufficiently i closed facebook (not logout, just red buttoned it)
lo and behold - the blue light went off. success.
no idea why it came on, no idea why it went off. just glad its gone now!
i dont know if this will work for others but it would be interesting to know if anyone else had got their handset wet?
wondering if it may literally be a case of waiting for it to dry out..
its an ongoing mystery!
good luck to all who suffer at the mercy of this blue demon..
