Has anyone had this icon show up?

I have the first gen iPhone and noticed something different on my phone the other day. On the edge icon the blue square box usually has the "E" inside of it but when I looked at my phone the blue square box and a black circle in it. It stayed like that for at least 30 seconds. Does anyone have any info as to what the blue square box with the black circle mean?
Here's a screen shot of it.

Hard drives do not appear in 10.1 like they used to in previous versions.
You can open and close libraries as needed and you can store them and move them as needed.

Hi Terence, When I am uploading photos from a memory card,not all of the photos show up on I photo as a photo image, but show up as a dotted square line. For example, I just added 12 photo from two days. The first day had 5 photos, but only 4 show up as images, then there is 1 as dotted a square. The next day, there 7 images, with only 4 showing up as photos, and three as the dotted squares.
I am using I photo 11, 9.1.1.
Thank you

My iPod is stuck on the startup screen, showing just the apple logo. Has anyone had this problem before? If yes, then how did you solve it?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Hi
SlideShow in iDVD has a 99 photo limit - more than this and all sorts of error occures.
One can have more than one SlideShow on a DVD = X times 99 photos.
or assemble SlideShows in a movie editor (no limit at least not under 650 photos)
(only limit is Time in iDVD (movie time + MENU time --- 60 min or 120 min on SL-DVD and about twice on DL.-DVD )
I use
• iMovie up to HD6 - or -
• FinalCut any version
As they will give a better quality than iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 can do.

Hello Sean,
It sounds like you are constantly needing to restore your phone because it keeps going into recovery mode. Usually putting a device into recovery mode and restoring it can help isolate an issue to your iPhone hardware if an issue persists afterwards. I would try manually putting it into recovery mode and restoring it 1 more time:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

If that does not resolve it the symptoms indicate to me that it is a hardware issue causing this to happen and would seek service for it:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,

Error: Couldn't unmount disk -- when trying to verify/repair external hard drives. Has anyone had this problem and solved it?

I have a number of hard drives that my Mac Book Pro no longer 'recognises' at least for very long. When I turn them on the deskstop icon shows up but then shortly afterwards I get a message saying that it has been unplugged incorrectly. I haven't unplugged it any of them. When I try to run very/repair disk before they disappear I get the error in the subject line above. Has anyone had this problem and if so how did you rectify it?

The drive is malfunctioning and needs to be replaced, or you have some other hardware fault.
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

HT4943 I bought a magazine subscription on my iPAD and after being charged, it does not come up on my screen. Has anyone had this problem?

I bought a magazine subscription on my iPAD and after being charged, it does not come up on my screen. Has anyone had this problem?
When I click on the magazine, my screen is just blank. I can see the purchase, and in my settings/store, the magazine shows "ON".

I would do a power cycle/reset of your device first, if you haven't, to rule that out.

If that doesn't help, talking to iTunes customer support would be in order...or whoever you purchased the magazine subscription through.

If the magazine is browser based, you might also try another browser. I like "Atomic Browser". It is available on the app store.

Safiari shuts down after visiting facebook, but no other website. Has anyone had this?

Safiari shuts down after visiting facebook, but no other website. Has anyone had this?

Seems my situation is unique? No one can help me?
Anyways an update: I held the Opt, then after it showed bootcamp, I was able to hold down on a set of keys (can't remember what I used) but I got the recovery disk to load. It would not do anything at all with my mac os hard drive. It wouldn't even let me erase or reformat the drive.
My option left was to find an external drive to install the OS snow leopard disk. I ran into an additional problem that the install disk was scratched. I had to clean it and buff off some of the scratches with toothpaste. That seemed to clean it just enough for the disk to finish a successful installation on the external drive.
From there I was able to format the Mac OS partition. Now ever since, different error checking software tells me the hard drive is fine? Should I trust it anymore? This is really odd. How can pending sectors suddenly be fixed by this problem? Also it shows I have no more bad sectors in the drive.
I still feel skeptical. As far as my files go, looks like time machine can successfully restore my system up to Sept 28 or 29 this year. Everything after that has been backed up under my PC formatted external drive.

My MacBook can find my wifi says it has perfect signal and it's connected. But there is no internet and I've have had this same problem at my house my friends and wifi source I use. Has anyone had this problem or can help me with this thanks

i have a MacBook pro. I'm trying to connect my Mac through wifi at my house, it shows my router says it's connected with full signal yet I have no internet. So I thought I would try it at my friends house but I had the same problem. the Internet connection and wifi were on, as our iPhones were working through wifi. And my friends Mac works via wifi at my house. Just mine dosnt has anyone had this problem or can help me with this problem thanks.

Try this.
    Power off the router. Unplug it from the wall. Wait a while.
    Plug it back to the wall. Power the router on. Wait until all the lights are lit properly. It will take a while.
    Restart the computer.
    Start up in Safe Mode.

Although you say you have let the battery drain, was it for long enough? Since nothing else that you've tried so far has worked, I suggest that you leave the iPod unplugged for at least four days, preferably a week. That way, if something is stopping the iPod from turning the screen on, then whatever it is will drain the battrey. However, since the screen isn't on, that may take longer than if the screen was on.
Then, after that time, plug the iPod into a power source and leave it alone for at least thirty minutes. Only after thirty minutes will it show any signs of life, but you should leave it until it is fully charged before trying to use it.
If you get to this stage, the fact that the battery has drained will cause the iPod to reset when it springs back to life.
Let us know how you get on.

Please tell us you iMac model and the Mac OSX version you run. iMacs have been in continuous production since 1998 in four broad families and hundreds of variants. Without knowing your specific Mac type, someone trying to help might give you advice inappropriate for your model.
A good place to start to determine in which family yours resides is to do "About this Mac" from your Apple menu (left end of menubar) to get this window:
Note I've indicated two entries with red arrows. Please tell us what your computer shows for "Version" under OSXn and for your processor.
The forum you are in now, "iMac (PPC)" is for iMacs made between 1998 and 2006.

HT1363 after pressing Menu and Select, when the Apple sign appears, I immediately press select and play/pause, but again the red X sign appears. so it does not go to Disk Mode. Has anyone had this issue? I would be grateful if you could tell me what to do

The red X has appeared in my Ipod Classic Screen. Apple support tells me that I need to first put it manually on disk mode. to put it on disk mode I ought to press menu and select buton togeher, when the apple sign shows up, hold select button and play together.
After pressing Menu and Select, when the Apple sign appears, I immediately press select and play/pause, but again the red X sign appears. so it does not go to Disk Mode. Has anyone had this issue? I would be grateful if you could tell me what to do.

Thank you everyone for the replies. It defiantly helped point me in the right direction. With any luck, I will have my replacement phone sometime tomorrow.
I was able to call the iPhone support line this morning. The Apple rep stayed on the line with me for about an hour until he was sure the new phone would ship out. For $199 plus $29 for expedited handling I was able to get the replacement ordered with overnight shipping. Since the replacement doesn’t involve ATT&T I have no reason to suspect any further delays. Kudos to the Apple rep that helped me straighten out this mess.
It’s a shame that AT&T cares so little for their existing customers. Not only did they try to sell me the same phone for $499, they outright refused to help me. They also lied to me on numerous occasions and strung me along for close to three weeks for something that only took an hour to complete with the Apple rep.
I filed a formal complaint against AT&T through the Better Business Burrow as well as requested a review of our cooperate contract with AT&T. Our company currently has over 3000 phones with AT&T and there contract comes up for bid the end of our fiscal year (this October). We will be giving it heavy consideration before we consider renewing their contract.
I doubt that any of that will matter to a company that cares so little about their customers, but you never know.
Thanks again for all your help. I would probably still be trying to get my replacement for the next few months if it wasn’t for your suggestions.

I have updated my iOS and now my hotmail will not verify my password through apple mail app. I have reset password - tried new password and old password and it still gives me password incorrect. Hotmail works fine on Mac. Has anyone had this difficulty

I have updated my iOS and now my hotmail will not verify my password through apple mail app. I have reset password - tried new password and old password and it still gives me password incorrect. Hotmail works fine on Mac. Has anyone had this difficulty and been able to resolve it?

Did you try deleting the mail account, then adding it back? I've read a lot of times that is what needs to happen in order for it to work properly.

Has anyone had this issue? There is a fine white powder (no coke jokes) covering anything plastic in my apartment. It's coming from my iMac, I discovered yesterday. For 6 months this mysterious powder has been in my abode, probably in my lungs, too.

Has anyone had this issue? There is a strange fine white powder covering anything plastic in my apartment. It's coming from my iMac. It's a year and a half old (out of warranty). After 6 months of trying to figure this out, I found out yesterday when my local Apple Sore offered to fix it for $700. I want to know how toxic this powder is, since I've been breathing it for 6 months. A carcinogen I'll bet.

If an Apple employee (repair tech) doesn't know what it is.............
Suggest that you do a Google search for the "guts" of your model/generation iMac. See what the "guts" are made of and post back your findings.
We are just ordinary users like yourself that help out here. I for one, would be very interested to know if your iMac has a "monkey on it's back."
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
