Dashed circle movie icon. What does it mean?

Hi,
What does this round "hollow" movie icon means?
The problem
The movie, which according to iTunes is present on the iPad, does not show on the Videos app on the iPad.
The backgound
I bouhgt a movie ("Amazonia") for my daughter on an iPad that did not sync its movies with iTunes.
I synced the iPad to add a few more movies from iTunes.
The new movies synced fine, "Amazonia" got transfered to my iTunes and got removed from the iPad.
I tried to move the movie back, and according to iTunes it is present in the iPad, but with a strange hollow icon besides it.
"Amazonia" cannot be seen in the Videos app on the iPad.
Notes
Even though I bought the movie, the store would allow me to buy it again. Why?
Thank you community!
Shame on apple: Why not give me hover-tip on the icon, to tell me why it is hollow?

I didn't see it in the articles listed below, however I think it means it is trying to load it.

    there is an icon with a lock with a continuous circle around it - what does this mean

    It means you have enabled rotation lock, so the screen will not change from portrait to landscape when you rotate the phone.
    Double-press the HOME button, then slide the QuickLaunch ribbon from left to right to reveal the lock control icon.

  • My daughters iPod has a little padlock in arrow circle around it what does this mean

    Help my daughter has got a little symbol up next to the battery symbol which is a little padlock with an arrow circled around it, why does this mean and how do I fix it??

    It means the rotation of the screen is locked in portrait mode.

  • A Sanyo Xacti VPC HD2000 icon: What does it mean?

    I cannot find the answer to this question in my Sanyo Xacti VPC HD2000A camcorder manual.
    On the left side of the Display, there is a white icon shaped like a U and filled up. Imagine the capital letter U filled with white milk. To the left of that icon I see two tiny little icons lined up vertically. The top icon looks like it could be a white arrow sign pointing downwards. The bottom icon looks like a white cross.
    What does that mean? I do not recall seeing that icon previously. It might be the result of me experimenting with my Xacti. My manual does not explain it.

    Zyfert,
    Thank you ever again. I just now downloaded the manual for my Sanyo VPC-HD2000A camcorder. It will be so much easier to look for information.
    As for the other items: (1) getting a still out of a clip, and (2) stopping the action right at a certain point, Zyfert, the other day it was slightly breathtaking to see the different explanations and suggestions and then to realize that some of it was going about a foot over my brains.
    I have downloaded Streamclip and also that other app, Square5.
    I have to look at all the posts again and get them straight while looking at my iMovie '11 program.
    One thing: the issue of the blast of pictures (stills) as being a possible solution is great, but in my case, the situation is at the point of editing in iMovie '11, not when I am shooting with my Sanyo VPC-HD2000A. (Someone had mentioned the virtue of the rapid fire succession of still shots.)
    I have explored my Sanyo VPC-HD2000A quite a bit. I made some changes tonight -- small things like having the date and time show up in the display when I open it. I had some questions about those kinds of issues/options and will post them later.
    Right now I am mainly wanting to thank you again, Z,

  • Padlock Symbol at Lower Left of USB hard drive Icon - What does it mean ?

    Presumably the small locked padlock that appears at the lower left corner of my USB external hard drive's mounted icon when I boot into Leopard means the volume is locked in some way ????
    This volume is NOT my designated Time Machine volume.
    I seem to be able, as my computer's administrator, to still write to and read from this drive and the permissions look OK for it so what does this newly appearing lock icon mean and how do I get rid of it ?
    Also: on the Mac's internal drive this time, Why is the finder asking for my password very time I try to move or delete files and folders from my own home documents folder when logged in normally as myself ? Don't I "own" my own home folder ?????

    I too want to join in on this Band Wagon! I did nothing new to my Mac Pro running Leo 10.5.2 and all current updates applied. First thing I noticed was copying files from an external usb drive. The file would get to almost finished and have maybe a couple of bits left. Then a notice would appear saying the files were corrupted. (NOT) I had to Force Quit the Finder and Relaunch it in order to remove the warning notice off of the desktop. Then I noticed 1 of my 4 internal drives with the padlock on the lower left hand side. As I was investigating that drive another drive blinked and then it too had the padlock! Now the external usb drive also has a padlock. I looked at permissions with (Command I) and found that my permissions had been changed to "Custom" which could not be changed back to read & write. In fact all of the affected drives now have the same issue. So to try to fix them I added myself to the users side of the permissions box and gave myself read and write permissions in the hope I could delete the custom permissions account. No Luck! But I was able to delete the new read write account? Ran Disk utility from the DVD an the drives still show up as being locked. Anyway when I removed the DVD I let the machine reboot. Now for the fun! It gets up to the grey background & spinning gears, goes to black and restarts. It stays caught caught in this loop until I kill the power. Call Apple support & they told me what I already knew. Reformat & start over. I do not find that to be an answer I want to know what caused it & how to fix it! Since my company just invested in 50 of these units and I am the only technician for over 200 users.

  • Modern Combat 2 -- Red Indicator badge on icon; what does it mean?

    I usually don't ask software-related questions, but this one has me stumped.  I recently bought and started playing Gameloft's Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus.  Hey, I needed something to do while the power company restores power in the wake of Hurricane Irene!
    Anyway, I noticed that a red indicator (the usual red circle on the game icon) appeared, with a "1" on it.  I searched and could not find out what this means.  Anyone know?

    I know zilch about notifications like this. But if it is a game center game, look in there and see what you can find. I know that you can get messages from friends or fellow gamers - it's your turn to make a move - or maybe a message from the game developers - something like that - some new leader on the leader board - I'm just guessing now.
    Either go to the the Game Center app or tap the game app itself.

  • TS1382 Sad face icon what does it mean

    My husband dropped his ipod and now we only have a sad face.
    Is there anything that can be done?

    See here: iPod displays a sad iPod icon
    Note that it's often a good sign of a hardware issue with the iPod's hard drive meaning the iPod will need to be serviced or replaced.

  • Unsuccessful double click on G5 icons: what does it mean?!?

    I've got this afternoon a 2nd hand G5 Power Mac (1st generation, 1.6 GHz, 1 GB Ram, 10.5.8). So far so good, I've run Rember, Preferential Treatment, Onyx, Disk Utility, CPUTest and all tests have been passed. However something strange is also happening: quite often but also randomly when I doubleclick on an icon, it's highlighted but then it doesn't open, then by keeping doublecklicking the icon will eventually open at the 3rd or 4th try (it happens both with folders or applications) but still it's annoying, and I wonder how to solve it. Apparently (but I haven't tested for a long time) there's no problem by launching an application with a single click on the dock, or even once it has been highlighted by using cmd-o. I've been wondering if it was the mouse connected to the keyboard, but it's the same if it's directly connected to the G5... any idea?!?

    well, already "sorted": it was the previous owner who had set the doubleclick speed at the maximum, and it didn't pick my "slow" clicks

  • When I tried to move the Firefox icon to the folder after downloading the update, it says I do not have suffient privileges to do this. What does that mean?

    I can't seem to complete downloading the new version of Firefox. I got to the point where it said to drag the icon to the folder, but then I got the message that I don't have sufficient privileges to do that. What does that mean and how can I complete the download?
    Thank you.

    You can ignore that.<br />
    That is referring to the time stamp of the Firefox 6 file that is older than the time stamp of the Firefox 3.6.x release.
