Disk burn icon won't go away?

I burned a DVD and even after I ejected it, the Burn DVD icon alias won't disappear from the sidebar in the window. I tried dragging it out to the desktop so it would "poof" away, but it just goes back to the sidebar. It's so annoying. Any ideas about how to get rid of it? thank you!

Holding command when I dragged it out of the window deleted it. Thank you!

Disk burned today won't play on tv; yesterday's does

I have created two very simple presentations in iMovie - title slides, a few images and an audio track. Both presentations are less than 3 minutes long. I burned one yesterday and it plays fine in dvd player. Burned the other today and won't play in dvd player (disk error or the player just ejects the disk). I am using Apple DVD-R 4X disks. I changed no settings between burning the two disks. Have never had trouble with disks not playing on dvd player (same dvd player each time) Any idea what went wrong?

You
b should
always create a disk image and burn that to DVD-R. I'm not saying this will solve this problem. Once you've encoded the project, nothing changes and you can burn additional DVD-Rs knowing that you're using an encoded file that did work, and should work in the future.
You could take the successful DVD and create a disk image from that and then burn another DVD-R to see if it will work.

This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Disk Utility to burn the DVD.
Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (not the .img, the one below) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. Your SuperDrive tray will open. Insert a recordable DVD. (DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Then click the Burn button.
-->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and Tiger.
b Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD 5 project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

Icon won't go away

I have this icon that wont go away dont know what it is for................. just a app icon that says "Waiting" below it... never downloads anything... when I go to App Store > Purchased > all my apps are already installed so no clue what it is.....
It will go away briefly but then come back its very strange.... I have tried turning off phone, hard resetting phone... Then even hold down to see if let delete it but when all the other icons wiggle this one doesn't have the x to delete.............

Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

DnD icon won't go away on Redhat 9

Background:
I recently updated my OS to RedHat 9 (2.4.20-6). Previously on Redhat 7.3 (kernel upgraded to 2.4.18ish) everything worked OK.
java -version
java version "1.4.1-beta"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1-beta-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1-beta-b14, mixed mode)
Problem:
After dragging and dropping an object the drag icon/cursor turns black/reverse-video and does not go away until I drag another object or move the icon/cursor out of the window. The problem did not occur before my upgrade so I imaging it is not a java problem. I would like to know if anyone can repeat the problem or if anyone else has seen it. One Caveate... if you do anything after the drop that causes an icon repaint (like the OptionPane that is commented out in the code below) the problem does not appear. I have not been able to reproduce the problem outside of java.
thanks
Brad

.mac sync icon won't go away!

Unexpectedly at the bar on the top of the screen, I get a ".mac sync" icon. I do not have a .mac account, and never had. I believe this icon showed up after I installed the latest Safari update, but I'm not certain. When I go to preferences, it simply tells me that I don't have a .mac account (my .mac member name or password is missing it says) so I can't remove the icon from the bar on top.
Anybody know how I can get that .mac sync icon at the top of my screen to go away?

Me, too. In fact I still have a few winder boxes lying around and also run winders on all three of my Macs. But most of the time, it's my new, pet MBP 17".
I have learned a tremendous amount about Macs from these forums. There are many very smart and knowledgeable people around here, and most of the time someone has the right answer to a problem.

WD Ext. Hard Drive icon won't go away in Menu Bar?

First, I tried Time Machine and it said I had to reformat my WD, but I didn't want to do that because it had my PC laptop saved to it. So, then I opened WD in Finder and tried to start the process through WD's software. It Scanned and started Processing my Mac files and during the process, I cancelled because I really wanted to use Time Machine. I then deleted the folder "Memeo" from my Finder Applications and proceeded to use Time Machine. I went forward and reformatted my WD so I could use Time Machine, which worked great. However, there is an icon from Memeo stuck in my Menu Bar and I can't seem to get it to go away. Please Help!

Yes; however, I move it to the trash earlier, thinking my Mac would take care of all that. Now when I connect my hard drive, it comes up as Time Machine, so I don't know how to get it back like it was before I began Time Machine?

Annoying photoshop icons won't go away

Hi folks, I on PhotoShop CS5 12.0.3 latest version and often I get annoying little icons - well not icons but that's the best way to describe it! I've even got one on this screen now!
Basically there are symbols or icons that come up when using PhotoShop but remain on screen after I close PhotoShop - so I still have them on my desktop or while watching a video - it's a bit irritating. Has anyone else had this issue or does anyone have any idea how to get rid of it? I've tried to reset my preferences but no change. It does go away when I restart (the computer, not just photoshop) but I can't do that 3 times a day!
I will insert two jpegs of the problem, I've put a red circle around the icons so you will see them properly, the 1st is the cursor when choosing a certain brush - which is the one I have now, the 2nd is the co-ordinates that appear beside cursor as it appeared on my desktop after closing PhotoShop - very strange.
Thanks in advance for any help!

You have a graphics card problem of sorts.... It simply isn't refreshing this particular area when closing the program. Adjust your driver/ instal la newer/ different one.... Also turning off OpenGL in PS may help to avoid the issue (if that's not already the case).

Skype download icon won't go away?

Last night I downloaded Skype on my MacBook Air that I bought a few weeks ago.
I downloaded it from Skype.com, and everything seemed normal. I can now call and talk to friends and family on Skype from my laptop. However, once Skype downloaded, an icon that looks very similar to a USB icon (except blue with the Skype logo) appeared on my desktop. I tried to eject it like a normal USB, and it worked, but the next time I opened up Skype, the icon appeared again. If I try to eject the icon while I am using Skype, a thing comes up saying that it can't be ejected because Skype is in use. I have talked to my other friends who also have a MacBook air an they didn't have this problem. It's just really annoying having this weird blue icon on my desktop, and I'm not sure why its there. Please let me know if you know how to fix this problem.

Is this the icon you're describing?
If so it sounds as though you downloaded Skype but didn't install it in your Applications folder.
To install it in Applications, first quit Skype.
Then, open the Skype "volume" icon pictured above and drag the Skype app icon in the direction of the arrow, as the graphic below shows:
You may be asked to authenticate with your login ID and password because that action is about to modify the contents of your Applications folder. If you are certain you downloaded Skype directly from Skype's website (http://www.skype.com/en/), then you're OK.
The only reason for mentioning this is that you should always know the reasons your credentials are being requested. It's your last defense against installing some junk you may not want.
Never supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
After Skype is copied to Applications, you can eject the icon on your desktop.
To launch Skype, open the Applications folder, or use Spotlight to find it. After it opens, drag the icon in the Dock (the row of icons along the bottom of your screen) to any other location in the Dock, where it will remain after quitting Skype.

Voice Mail Icon Won't Go Away!

Hello All:
I have a Z30 and I have 10.2.1.3062. I was left a voice mail a while ago and after listening to it the first time, I saved it and listened to it again 3 days later. After that I deleted the saved message. However, the voice mail notification continues to show on my screen/Hub. This is despite the fact that the voice mail says that I have no new or saved messages.
I have tried leaving myself a message and then deleting it, hoping that it would get rid of the icon, but no luck.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Bookmark Icon won't go away on homescreen

I had an iPod Touch I was using for the past couple of years and then recently upgraded to an iPhone 3GS. I had a Digg bookmark icon that I deleted long ago. On my iPhone during every sync it always comes back. On the iPhone I always delete it but that doesn't seem to work or prevent it's reappearance with the next sync. Has anyone here experienced this before? I want my icons for apps only.

Wall outlet icon won't go away

The wall outlet icon appeared and I've plugged it in for hours. When I reset, the wall outlet icon appears again. My computer does not recognize that I have my ipod plugged in...thoughts

First try Resetting Your iPod while it's connected to the AC adapter.
Hold down the Menu and Select buttons until you see the Apple logo (or Menu & Play/Pause in older models).
This will often get it recognized. It may take several attempts.
Also try Resetting it while connected to the PC.

Waiting message and grey icon won't go away

How to fix this problem, the icon unresponsive

Try downloading the app again. If that doesn't work, turn the iPad off and on... Lastly, hold the sleep and home button down at the same time. Wait for about 10 seconds for the Apple icon to appear. One of these three option should fix your problem.
