  • Play Icon Stuck Next to Battery Icon?

    I can't really complain about yesterday's update. I LOVE the iPod controls and iTunes Wifi. My only question is, does anyone else have the iPod play icon stuck next to their battery icon? Mine doesn't go away even when I'm not listening to music. When I pause (and essentially stop listening to music) it might show the pause icon for a little while but if I go into another application or put my baby into sleep mode then wake it up... the play icon is back.

    Ok. This happened to me a couple of times when I first got my iPhone back in July (so not sure it has to do with the recent update).
    My question I guess is when you get out of the ipod application, do you just hit the home button to get out?
    I ask because I found if I did that, not only did I have the "play" button still show up, but the name of the song appeared on the home menu.
    What I learned to do was when exiting the ipod app, I first paused the song, then backed out of it by way of the arrow on the upper left hand corner, then I would press the home button for about 6-8 seconds taking me to the home screen. I have not had that problem ever since.
    It's worth a shot for you all.
    Hope this helps!

  • Weird icon next to battery icon

    this weird icon popped up on my phone yesterday and have no idea what it means. it is a lock with a circular arrow around it?

    You you have rotation lock enabled. A rotation lock icon will appear in the status bar next to the battery charge icon when rotation lock is enabled. This looks like a circular arrow around a padlock. If so:
    1. Double click the home button to bring up the multitasking bar.
    2. Swipe right until the last set of icons is displayed in the multitasking bar (these will include play/pause and skip buttons for iPod or Pandora).
    3. The furthest left icon looks like a circular arrow - touch this icon to enable or disable rotation lock on the iPhone.

  • HT3205 In place of the percentage number next to my battery icon, it now says "single percent format." What does this mean and what do i do about it?

    You can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on a Mac hold down the Option and Command (⌥ and ⌘ Apple) keys together. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and it will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer. Once you are safely connected go to the iPod Summary tab and make sure "manually manage music and videos" is checked:
    iTunes for Mac - Keyboard Shortcuts

  • Satellite P100: task bar sometimes shows up an grey square icon

    I have a Satellite P100 and the task bar sometimes shows up an icon which I cannot understand. It is a grey square with an horizontal line near the botoom, and seems to represent a computer. Then, over the right bottom side there is a red circle with a red diagonal line across it (in the forward slash direction).
    Hovering the mouse over it does not produce any information.
    Can you help?

    just do this for me please and hit FN+F9 together, that is the key combination for turning the TOUCH PAD off and on, as I've said before it's the only one that I can see that looks like it. Here's a screenshot
    http://img137.imageshack.us/my.php?image=greyicontj9.jpg
    Is this the icon? If it is then FN+F9 will toggle it on and off, I'm sorry to say this but all the functions are in the manual, both on the computer and the paper one that came with the notebook plus you can go download them from Toshiba's site. I read my manual before I even got my notebook by downloading it first.
    If this is switching on and off by itself without you using FN+F9 then it would suggest there is a hardware fault with the touch pad or the drivers are conflicting with something on your system, I would suggest contacting Toshiba Technical Support.

  • I am getting a message "Not Charging" next to the battery icon.

    When I plug my iPad into a wall socket, I get a ping as if it is charging but the message next to the battery icon says Not Charging.  I have tried several different charging cables.

    Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Downloaded yosemite and my iPhotos pics now appear as a grey square and triangle with an ! in it with in the new photos program

    I have a mac book pro and i just downloaded yosemite. after i downloaded yosemite i went to the new photos program as he iPhoto icon was no longer there and i followed the instructions. i then opened my pics and they all seemed to be there but when i enlarge them or double click on them all i see is a grey screen with a grey square with a grey triangle with an exclamation point in it. so in reality the pics aren't really there! maybe they are somewhere else but i do not know.
    just so you know: before i downloaded yosemite i did all the upgrades my computer said i needed to do, no iPhoto upgrade was listed. i didn't do any specific backup before downloaded yosemite but i do have a time machine connected to the computer so i do believe that i therefore have a backup. i am not exactly sure what version iPhoto i had but perhaps my iPhoto and the new photos program are not compatible. i say that because when i went into applications and clicked on iPhoto (as it was listed there) it said "in order to open "iPhoto" you need to update to the latest version. the version of iPhoto installed on this mac is not compatible with os x yosemite. download the latest version for free from the mac app store." so i searched the app store and it says that version is not available. the app store does list iPhoto in my purchased products but it only says update and not download. i clicked on update it doesn't appear to do anything but do a spinning circle for a few seconds and then nothing further. i don't know what to do next! what happened and how do i go about fixing this problem?

    The exclamation mark means that the app has lost the link to the actual file.
    First step: try and make sure the iPhoto Library is working correctly:
    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • Power Manager locking taskbar and creating two battery icons on X201

    I am having an issue with one of my X201s and Power Manager running windows 7.  My other X201 that runs the same software and was buil7 withing a few months does not have the issue. Periodically while on the internet a second battery icon will pop up on the task bar just partially overlapping the first icon and it has a fluttering appearance. When that happens the task bar is frozen and it takes accessing task manager to be able to restart the computer.  I uninstalled and reinstalled the latest versions of the driver for Power Manager and Power Manager but that did not fix the problem.  Not running Power Manager seems to prevent any problems but that is not what I want to do.   I did some reading last night and it seems I am not the only one having an issue and it is not confined to the particular model.  Searching did not lead me to real answers. Looking for a solution or a better way to diagnosis this.
    T430 - Taskbar Frozen? This worked for me.
    ‎01-11-2014 01:44 AM
    I thought I would post this in case someone has the same issue I did.  Today my taskbar froze after startup (i.e. I couldn't access the start button or any other icon on the task bar and I had a two wonky grey battery icons where only one should have been).  Restarting explorer.exe didn't help.  It didn't even work in safe mode.  No viruses, malware, disk/hardware issues could be found.  The culprit was the Power Manager.  There have already been a couple threads on this, but they are somewhat convoluted in addressing the issue so I thought I would post a straight forward solution.
    I had version 6.3x installed on my T430 (which is only a couple months old, by the way). I had read in another thread that the power manager has been causing problems with the taskbar from way back BUT merely uninstalling it after the problem occurs has triggered the blue screen of death for several users.
    So, I downloaded and installed the latest version of Power Manager (currently 6.6x).  I did not uninstall the previous version first.  I simply installed the new version and restarted the computer when prompted. This fixed the frozen taskbar issue. 
    Then, and only then, did I uninstall power manger completely because I never want to deal with this again. Everything is now back to normal.
    The TL;DR version:
    Step 1: Download and install latest version of power manager. DO NOT uninstall previous of power manager first.
    Step 2: Restart computer
    Step 3: For peace of mind, unistall the latest version of power manager.
    Step 4: Restart computer
    I hope this helps anyone who needs it.

    Well using the older version of powermanger did not work as the issue popped up again.  I also discovered the other X201 in the house was also having the same issue with the two battery icons and locked task bar.
    I tried a new tactic which unchecking the the box in Power Manager-Options-Show periodic messages about the battery condition.  This so far no brought up the problem but more testing is necessary to be certain.

  • TS3716 mi iPod is not recognized by itunes. I keep getting" do not diconnect " and a battery icon. Using windows 7

    My ipod nano cannot be reinstalled by itunes. I get "do not dissconect" and a battery icon. using windows 7. Any suggestions ?

    - First I would remove and reinstall all the Apple software using the following and then restoring the ipOd.
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    - Next see if manually placing the iPOd in recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Next try DFU mode:
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - Next try another computer/cable to help determine if you have a computer or iPod problem.
    - If the other computer works and yours does not see:
