How do I remove the blue tag from my HD?

Since upgrading to Mavericks I have had a blue 'dot' tag next to my HD's name on my desktop.
I have figured out how to assign and remove tags from folders generally, but I just cannot find how to remove the blue dot from the main HD on the desktop.
For example, if I right-click on the desktop icon I can see that the blue tag is selected in the tag options, but it just cannot be deselected there at all.
If I right-click on the desktop HD icon and select 'Get Info' I can then see the top box in the Get Info panel has 'Blue' showing in it, but there appears to be no way to get rid of it there either.
How can I switch of this unwanted blue tag on my HD icon?

Looks like all you guys out there have all been a little too busy to post a reply to this one, but that's fine because life can be a little too full at times.
The good news is that I found a solution, quite accidentally really.  I simply renamed the HD Drive (Get Info > Name & Extension).  The new name appeared under the drive icon without the blue tag.  Job done.  I am guessing that the blue tag was just a bug that was a hangover left by upgrading from a previous version of OS X, but whatever it was it has now gone.
Thank you.

    These are titles and in the dynamic menu will be the item description per item.
    These are actually important though and you do not really want to remove them but make them better and reword them other then the same as the link test. These are good for the user experience as well as SEO. A bot knowing a description of a link and where it is going coupled with the URL's and the title of an anchor are all important aspects of your sites SEO.

  • How do you remove the blue dot from next to the podcasts.

    How do you remove the blue dot from next to the podcasts. I listen to 100s of podcasts on my ipod so the blue dot does not leave itunes. I use the blue dot to identify which podcasts are new. It used to be easy to remove the blue dot just play the podcasts for a second in more recent versions of itunes it is harder one has to play it for longer and half the dot is left. How do I select a dozen podcasts and mark them as used. I mean remove the blue dot.

  • How can i remove the shuffle feature from my nano?

    How can I remove the shuffle feature from my nano?  I apparently "shook" it and now it is on shuffle.  I can go to settings and remove the shake feature but I can't seem to restore my playing options to a generic loop instead of the shuffle.  Help!

    chelseafromco:  I had the same problem and had an awful time before finding a clear explanation of the solution.  Forget the iPod nano 6Gen manual, p. 21; it doesn't tell you how to turn the feature off, just how to turn it on.  Not all of us like randomizing our playlists.  APPLE:  PUT UP AN ARTICLE EXPLAINING SIMPLY HOW TO DO THIS.  Meanwhile, here's what worked for me:
    1.  Go to the "Now Playing" icon and tap the "Play" arrow in the center.
    2.  On the touch screen that comes up (you'll see an eighth-note graphic with the song title superimposed at the top, a Play/Pause button in the middle, and "Reverse" and "Forward" buttons on either side of that), swipe your finger to the left (not to the right).
    3.  This touch screen will have a "Repeat" symbol with two arrows like a snake eating its tail on the left and another symbol on the right that shows two arrows pointing to the right.  This is the "Shuffle" symbol.  Touch the Shuffle symbol so it's white, not blue.  White means that Shuffle is  off.
    4.  To make sure you won't accidentally turn Shuffle on, which you can do by giving the iPod a shake, go to the main Settings icon, cick it and select "Music," then press "Shake to Shuffle" until the button next to it says "Off" (white, not blue).
    Hope this helps.  By the way, in case you were wondering:  The whirling-molecule symbol in the center of the "Now Playing" controls is the Apple "Genius" symbol. This is to remind us that Apple's  manuals are created by people who don't know that customers need  instructions on how to turn things off as well as how to turn them on.

  • HT3702 how can i remove the authorization hold from my card...

    how can i remove the authorization hold from my card

    You can try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store
    How much was the amount ? A 'normal' holding charge is a small amount (e.g. equivalent to about $1), and usually happens after you add or change credit card details on your account. Here in the UK it can take a few working days for it to disappear (so a weekend can extend the elapsed time).
    Edit : I don't know what a non-liability certificate is and/or whether Apple can do one.

  • How can I remove the background sound from the headphone jack for my MacBoo

    for my MacBook Air problem adding music intensifier (Panasonic ST-HT1000) to give it an unpleasant sound background that sounds like a whiz, it's not so loud, but it is an unpleasant .. after a short time can get used to, but the fizz does not pass, however, believe that it is a big problem.
    Further I notice that when MacBookAir disconnected from the charger, it remains quieter sound.
    At first thought that the headphone jack (3.5 mm Headphone:
    Connection: 1/8-Inch Jack) or wiere have problem, but tried 3 different cables, but that does change enything, the problem remains.

    There is no way to bring that up unless you have it typed in a document. You can use My Support Profile to find a list of serial numbers that have been purchased or registered with your Apple ID.

    I need to remove ALL the moon phases that appear in iCal 5.0.3. Every time iCloud updates it sends 6 to 10 moon events to my MacBook Pro. Going forward 3 0r 4 months, there are too many moon phases. How can I remove the moon phases from iCal?
    I am on a MacBook Pro 2.2 with 4 GB using Mountain Lion 10.7.5.

    Try:
    items.RemoveAll(s => string.IsNullOrEmpty(s));
    Or you can filter them out using where:
    var noEmptyStrings = items.Where(s => !string.IsNullOrEmpty(s));

  • How can I remove the " Source.vi" from long Express VI Names?

    I am in the Moment working on the Development of an Express VI
    library for test purposes.
    How can I remove the " Source.vi" from long Express VI Names?
    This happens when the Express VI is inserted in the blockdiagram
    and listed in LabVIEW and TestStand Palettes.
    By short names like "DAQ-Assistent" or "EasyCalc" the string " Source.vi"
    is not shown at the end of the Express VI names.
    I used The Express VI Dev Toolkit 1.0 to create the Express VIs.
    Labview Version: 7.1 Base
    TestStand: 3.1
    It would be great to get the expert advice from the Forum for this issue!
    Thanks a lot.
    Andre

    I think I understand what you are asking for. If I am wrong, please try to explain it a bit more.
    The name shown may be different than the name of the vi file. To do this, your source VI and popup on its icon. From the short menu that comes up, select VI properties. In the top ring, select Window Appearance. The page that comes up lets you set various things that can affect the appearance of the VI. What you want to change is the window title. Uncheck the Same as VI name checkbox and change the string to whatever you want it to be.
    I hope that this helps,

    I have a new MacBook Pro and I followed these instructions, downlonading and installing the new Flash plugin. But when I looked in "/Library/Internet Plugins" there was no folder called "Disabled Plugins".
    However, I did see two versions of Flash:
    _Flash Player.plugin with old date
    Flash Player.plugin with todays date
    I deleted _Flash Player.plugin and this fixed the problem.
