How do I get rid of this question mark shown in Launchpad?

This is here after I installed OS X Mountain Lion, among others. What is it, and how do I get rid of it?

That is because all Apps that are in the Applications folder get an Icon in the Launchpad area but as with Lion, and now Mt Lion, once you install the OS from that download, that is placed in the Applications folder, the Installer DELETES those files but it does not remove the Icon from the Launchpad.
Just DRAG it to the Trash can. You may have to hold down the Option or Command key (I forget which or if you even need to) while dragging it to the trash can.

  • How do I get rid of the question marks in my emails

    I run a business on my computer & I have serveral people tell me that when they get my emails, it has a lot of question marks all thoughout the message.
    sometimes other symbols as well. It makes me look as if I am really confused when I am sending my emails to my team.
    Can anyone tell me how to fix it?
    Also some say my attachments do not come with my emails???

    It sounds like maybe you are using a text encoding that your team's email clients cant understand.
    If you go to the Message menu, and select "Text Encoding" down at the bottom of the menu, you should get a long list of encodings.
    Set it to "Automatic", if its not already, and see if that helps.
    If it does not, try some of the encodings that start with "Western". "Western (Windows Latin 1)" may be a good choice if most of the people on your team use Outlook on Windows. Try "Unicode" down at the bottom if nothing else works. If none of these help, set it back to "Automatic".
    Im assuming (because of your Texas location) that your team members are here in the states. If not, if they are, say in Japan, China, Korea, Russia, etc., then one of the other encodings on the menu may help.

  • I can not sync ipod due to 6gb of 'other', how do I get rid of this?

    I can not sync ipod due to 6gb of 'other', how do i get rid of this?

    Hello drumsdonkey,
    Thanks for the question. The following article outlines issues with free space, capacity, and a large amount of "other" space. While it refers to iOS devices, most steps are applicable for your situation as well:
    iOS: 'Not enough free space' alert when trying to sync
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1503
    One symptom of this issue will be displayed in iTunes where the Capacity indicator for the iOS device will report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the device. To resolve this issue:
    - Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
    - Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    - Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
    - Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • I need to free up storage on my iPhone 4s to do an update.  I have turned off my photo stream, but when I go into Usage Settings, it says that photo stream is using 3.7gb of space.  How do I get rid of this?

    i need to free up storage on my iPhone 4s to do an update.  I have turned off my photo stream, but when I go into Usage Settings, it says that photo stream is using 3.7gb of space.  How do I get rid of this?

    iCloud is not designed to "store" photos (as in long term storage).  iCloud can be used to sync photos from one device to another (photo stream) and to store a backup of the camera roll.  But that's pretty much it.
    Camera roll is the group of all photos taken by the device (but not other photos synced to the device from another source).  Your extra storage on icloud will do you no good.  The recommended way of storing photos on a device is to sync them to a computer.
    So, your questions..
    1) You don't/can't
    2) No, because of 1.
    3) On a computer, deleting large groups of photos is relatively painless.  not so on a device.
    4) You can't access photos on iCloud because they can't be store in icloud.  You can't view/access photos in a backup on icloud unless you restore a backup to a device.
