Help! an icon i've never had before

Tried updating and restoring my 15 gig iPod with dock connector tonight. Now my computer won't even recognize it. Gone through the entire support manual, and everything I've tried doesn't work.
I do get this strange logo when I try the reset though: it's an image of the connector cable that goes into dock... Never seen it before, and the Apple site doesn't even show it...
Has my iPod gone to portable music heaven?

No, but it turns out it was power-related. I think I've got everything sorted out.
hiya!

iPod mean?

I am having serious issuse trying to open websites or links which i have never had before

I am having serious issues trying to open websites/pages or links which i have never had before. For instance when i open Firefox and my tabs start to load, sites such as Yahoo, Gamespot or Fox News struggle to open (these are just an example of a wider picture) Other times Firefox just freezes either for Minutes on end or completely until it either crashes or i have to task manage out of it. Firefox has total privelages through both my antivirus software and the in built Microsoft firewall. I never used to have this problem and speaking to some friends some of them are experienceing the same thing and due to the lack of help from Firefox have reverted to using Explorer. I do not recieve any error messages or messages stating there are problems with any of the sites that struggle or fail to open. I have tried disabling all add-ons and starting Firefox in save mode but no luck. I have also tried to change the settings in Options / Privacy - History from Remeber History to Use custom settings for history but this just keeps reverting back to original setting. Any help would be greatly appreciated as i don't want to return to using Windows Explorer.

FF4 has problems with script-heavy sites. There are two solutions:
1) Downgrade to 3.6
OR
2) Use a different broser

I had iOS4.3 before i restored it now i have got ios 4.2.1 which i never had before? how do i get it back to my normal one? 4.

I decided to restore my iPod touch 3G as i thought it might refresh it to get the iOS 5 as i really want it. Before i restored it i had iOs 4.3 which i have always had on my iPod. After restoring my iPod it went back to its factory conditions and i got iOS 4.2.1 which i have never had before? how can i get it back to my normal one or how can i get iOS 5 as on the apple website nothing is telling me to how to download it? can i please get some feed back so i know what to do.
Also the touchscreen isnt intime as quick as it used to be after I restored it, This is quite annoying whist im playing a game on my iPod. Thanks:)

Are you sure you really have a 3G iPod? A 2G iPod can only go to iOS 4.2.1. When you restore an iPOd wyou will get the latest iOS.
You need iTunes 10.5.X for iOS 5.
If your iPod is a 8 or 16 GB one it is a 2G iPod. Apple only made 32 and 64 GB 3G iPods. A 32 GB one can be either. To tell a 2G fom a 3G ypy need to know the model numbe engraved on the back see:

Photoshop CS 5 - Brushes have unwanted pixels they never had before

Hi there
Since a few days, most of my brushes have ugly pixels they never had before.
The pixels show up outside the contours of the brushes.
I'll give you some examples here:
On the screenshot you'll see that some of the thumbnails already show the extra squares I mean...
How can I solve this?

So guys,
Today the problem showed up again, and I know what causes it now!
After importing a large .psd-file in my poster .psd-file, some other layers in the file turned quite black and with countable pixels.
After "undo place image" and closing the file (without saving), it looked like there were parts of layers missing when I opened it again.
Afterwards I opened my Photoshop again and noticed that in the VIEW menu, I could click "monitor RGB", this solved the whole thing.
Have a nice weekend!

HT1212 after the update my iphone4 isnow requesting a passcoaftde which i never had before. how do I open it now?

after the iphone update my phone is noe requiring a passcode which i never had before. How do i get into my phone now?

If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

Since upgrading to 10.7.3 and iPhoto 11, I am encountering problems I never had before. Can't run slide show or make a book; in email, can't put in new signature. Any help out there. I have also downloaded the 9.2.3 update for the iPhoto.

Can't run slideshow in iPhoto. Updated to iPhoto 11 and that is when the problem started. Upgraded to 10.7.3 and now can not edit my email signatures. I have also downloaded 9.2.3 for iPhoto. I have always updated when new software was found. This new 10.7.3 is terrible. Can I go back????

Why do you think iPhoto affects your ability to edit Mail sigs? What happens when you try to run a slideshow? Have you tried re-applying the .7.3 update? Repairing permissions?

Hi, I recently came back from 3 months of not using my imac and found it to be exceedingly slow (a problem i have never had before (eg i cant get through playing a song on itunes without it pausing over 10 times for intervals of ~5 seconds.

Please read subject first then continue with this text:
Then I tried to connect my IPAD and IPHONE and neither would update because it couldnt find the file or something and then i couldnt even restore.
The next day itunes was gone completely: "The iTunes application could not be opened. An unknown error occurred (13014)"
dAnd then the next day ie today there is NO DOCK, NO BACKGROUND and NO DESKTOP ICONS! I had to open safari from the top bar that was only there because I have one random application called Garmin ANT that remained open (i never use this application, its a running computer watch thing)
Thank you so much for any help you can provide
PS Do i have a virus?
I didnt think macs could get viruses?
How do i back up my computer if i cant open finder?
Thanks again
PPS my computer is updated as far as i can tell and achieve.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

H E L P! Updated my iPhone and now LOTS of new problems never had before!

Everything was working perfectly. Then I updated my iPhone and iTunes software (via the automatic update which notified me this week that a new version of one or the other was available so I said "yes" and figured everything would be ok as usual).
NUTHIN' but problems ever since and yes, I have rebooted my iPhone several times, quit and restarted my Mac, quit and restarted iTunes, turned off the iPhone and on again, et al. CONTINUE to have problems - I get message:
Cannot sync. Mac sayd - Device timed out (re my iPhone). iPhone says it's syncing but when I slide the slider, it just goes to the phone like it wasn't even syncing or anything.
Mac PBook 1.5 gig ram 10.4.10
iTunes 7.5 (19)
iPhone 1.1.2
Cannot get a call out via 611 for the usual AT&T support but CAN call regular phone numbers.
HELP!!!! Everything was fine before! What in the world happened here????!!!

"From the above alone, it has to be your computer, it is the only thing left related to the phone" That's nice but Apple says it's NOT the problem so I'm not sure how it is you think you know more than they do. You know what the Genius bar guys said (all 3 of the ones I worked with)... they say they read a lot of stuff on this forum that is completely off and just full of BS and that people here tend that I should definitely take analysis and advice - such as yours - with a large grain of salt. Had you paid attention to my posts, you would have read back there that I DID bring my computer to them and they went through it and determined it was NOT the computer/Mac. THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS and you have less experience than they and you think you know what it is... I don't think so, buddy.
You must have stock in Apple to be so quick to come to their defense. Having myself worked for Apple, I know that Apple does its best to LOOK AT WHAT WAS DONE RIGHT AND NOT RIGHT and make improvements. And I worked on a committee that dealt with support issues. They want to know when a user feels they have not gotten what they paid for vs. your kind of defensive blather. Give it a rest, ok? I CLOSED MY CASE and Apple has already asked me to give them feedback about my experience - MY experience... not yours or colored by your opinion.
This forum is not for opinions. It's for straightening out technical issues so give it a rest and get back to the issues here which are technical only, period.
PS The amount of time required by me to go to Apple (3 visits now) out of a work day has now cost me more than the amount of money spent by Apple to replace this stuff which they say they don't know what is wrong with. And the cable you mention... they didn't swap it out. They did not replace the cable in the end - they gave me a used cheaper cable to use upon the first visit and the 2nd visit, instead of replacing the original cable, they swapped out the phone. And I have lost about 3 days on a schedule for work which I'm already behind on.
Last words - CASE CLOSED. NO FURTHER COMMENTARIES, et al needed, period.

Wierd icon I have never seen before!?

I went to make a call today and noticed a wierd icon on my BlackBerry Curve 8330 screen. It only pops up when making a call. It is a rectangle that is half black and half blue. It looks like stars or "+" signs going diagonally accross the icon. It is located on the top right hand of the screen by the in-call volume icon. Any help would be much appreciated!!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It is the Enhanced Audio Boost indicator. You can change that by open your Call Log > Menu > Options > General Options and see the settings at the bottom of the screen.

HT1212 I downloaded the latest software on mini ipad. It now asks me for password which I never had before and I have tried various passwords only for ipad to be disabled. Is there any way to restart my ipad without losing my data especially my photos

I have a mini ipad and recently downloaded the latest os.I now can't access without a password which I didn't use before.My ipad has been disabled as I don't know what password to use.Is there any way I can enable my ipad with a new password without losing my info and data especially photos?

You used the data. Verizon can not see what it was sued for. However your phone can see whats apps used the data. go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle. line the dates up with your cycle. then there will be a bar graph below that extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right. after those are extended below that will be a list of apps, there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

Butons issue never had before

I have made literally thousands of DVD's on my G5 Dual 2.5 w/2GB DDR400 SDRAM. Yesterday, in my DVD Studio Pro 3.0.2 I started having an issue with my buttons not want to change from DVD to DVD.
For example, I am making a video of a baseball game. Each player on the team is getting a DVD of the Final game of the Season with thier "at bats" selected out and moved to the front of the DVD and a button attached to each for quick and direct access to each at bat. The complete edited game plays afterwards, along with the roster and stats for each player rolling as credits at the end of the program, so the only thing changing on each DVD is the peoples edited "at bats" at the beginning of each personalized video. I made DVD's for about 15 of the players, and on about the 16th one when I changed the two buttons from "Player #23 - 1st at bat" and "Player #23 - 2nd at bat" to "Player #45 - 1st at bat" and "Player #45 - 2nd at bat", the DVD Formatted and Burned with Player #23 still on the buttons instead of Player #45. This is very confusing to me because when I went back to check, I had made the changes, and when I check it through Simulation it is correct. Also, the actual video is correct, just not the buttons.
I also tried getting out of the program, and then getting back into it and it does the same thing. Then I tried shutting down the G5 last night and starting fresh this morning, and it does the same thing. I tried making the next persons DVD and everything turns out great except it still is Formatting and Burning Player #23 in the buttons. Then I went back and made a persons video that only had 1 "at bat" during the game and it came out just like it was supposed to. I went back to the 2 "at bat" people and it made the first DVD just like it was supposed to, but when I went to make the second persons DVD it is still formatting and burning the button information from the previous person.
Like I said, I am very cunfused over this because when I check everything through Simulation it is correct. Can anybody suggest anything for me?

Thanks for the suggestion!
What I ended up doing was rebuilding a second DVDSP3 file exactly like the first one but called it something new. It seems to be working fine now. Somewhere along the line the first one just dropped the button changes along the way. If this happens again, I will try your way. It will be much easier than what I did.
Thank you so much for your input! I hope you have a Merry Christmas!

My 2nd Gen IPod touch is no longer opening applications. I've done everything directed in the trouble shoot instructions except this. Asking for help here, where I've never been before. Any suggestions? thanks, steve

I'm trying to get my iPod touch to pull up applications again. It stopped doing it yesterday and I've done everything it says to do in the troubleshoot instructions, including even a reinstall of Itunes. Anybody have a suggestion?

Have you tried restart, reset, restore?

2nd monitor has yellow cast it never had before

I've been using a Dell 2405FPW monitor as my main screen for years, and the brightness and color was always great. Now that I have a new 24" iMac, I'm using the Dell monitor as a second screen, and it has a terrible yellow cast. I can't get rid of it with the monitor's controls, or with the Calibration tool in the Displays control panel. I'm using a Mini DVI-to-DVI adapter between the iMac and the Dell monitor. What's causing this?
Message was edited by: Kris Hunt

Nope, everything is brand new and looks fine. In fact, I now have the exact same setup (24" iMac and 24" Dell 2405 LCD) at home, and I'm seeing the exact same problem there, too. The Dell monitor is bright on its own, but has a dull yellow cast when connected to the iMac with the Mini-DVI to DVI connector.

Across the top of my screen i have a circle with a lock inside. never had before??

across top of my screen i have a 3/4 circle with a lock symbol inside?

It means that your screen is locked in portrait orientation. To unlock it, see page 21 of the iPhone iOS5 User Guide.

Here's how you put it into recovery mode
1: Turn off your iPHone by holding the sleep/wake button till it says "Slide to power off."
2: Hold down the home button (Button on the bottom of the display with a square in the middle) and connect it to the computer while still holding it down till you see a music note with an arrow pointing towards it appear on the screen of your iPhone
3: iTunes will give you a message, "iTunes has detected a device in recovery mode; you must restore this device to factory settings to use this device."
4: Click on "Restore iPHone."
