How to Get rid of message icon on homescreen

heres my problem
hoping someone can help me.
On my home screen i have the icon showing on top saying i have 1 message.
But i have no messages of any sort. No Emails, No I.M.'s, No BBM's, No SMS or MMS, No Facebook or MySpace.
i have checked and double checked all of the above mentioned. I have turned off phone. i have removed battery. i have done the *228 update.
None of the above has worked.
How do i delete this icon??? its to the point of being annoying to me.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Is it a regular yellow mail icon?  If so, go to Messages.  Hit the menu key and select "View Saved Messages."  If there is nothing unread in there, do the same thing and select "View Folder" and check each and every folder until you find the message.

  • How to get rid of white icons on ipod touch 4th generation

    How do you get rid of white icons on the ipod touch 4th generation.  I tried resetting it already.
    Thanks,

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • How to get rid of message in Konsole "System Serial#" looks incorrect or invalid

    I hava a one year old MBP, in real it is some weeks older than this.
    The Display showed a thin yellow line on the left side of the display.
    I took it to the Apple-Store and they, after some discussions about the warranty, took it and repaird it.
    On the next day i went for it to get it out of the store (they told me to fetch it).
    First thing, i checked for the error. Sadly it came up again.
    What did they do? They changed the MLB (Motherboard).
    OK, i do now have a "new" MBP.
    The same error (yellow line) appeared and they took it to repair it again, this time changing the display.
    Three days later they told me to fetch it again.
    Heading for the Store, have a look on the Display..... very good no yellow line. Great!
    BUT! the Display is lightly turned in the case. Grrrr..
    If it is a Laptop for 300 $ ok but not on a system for 2000 $.
    I will bring it back i a few days to "repair" it, again.
    Now to the mentioned Console-Message:
    "Hardware SerialNumber "System Serial#" looks incorrect or invalid"
    After replacing the MLB, the Hardware changed.
    Is it a problem for the Software?
    What can happen, and what restrictions/problems will i have?
    How do i get rid of it?

    When the logic board is replaced, the serial number has to be flashed back into the records - there is a special tool for that and they will need to do that or you will show an incorrect serial number forever and it may result in problems. That part is easy to fix - simply tell them they need to flash/re-register your old serial number.
    As for the other problems: good luck; if they keep replacing/repairing for the same problem more than 3 times, ask (very politely) if one could consider replacing the machine as the repairs are not fixing the problem.

  • How to get rid of messages in idx5 idoc adapter

    We are having a lot of messages in idx5 (327828 for a particular date). When I go to sxmb_moni "Monitor for processed xml Messages" I do not find these messages there.
    We are running the archiving/deletion reports and I expected theese to take care of the Idoc Adapter messages as well. Is this not the case? Are there separate archiving/deletion jobs for the idoc adapter? How do I get rid of the messages in the idx5 xml messages in the idoc adapter?
    When running the report RSXMB_SHOW_STATUS this is today (after archiving/deleting all messages older then one day) showing good 30.000 messages in the database - and do not show the huge number of messages in the idoc adapter.

    The baseball is probably the symbol assigned to you in Address Book - take a look and see. It appears on all your sent mail in Mail, but not on the messages as they appear to recipients, so don't worry about it too much. If you don't like it, you can remove or replace it through Address Book.

  • How to get rid of annoying icon

    So I just installed an update to acrobat 9 standard and now there is a big pdf icon overlaying my desktop in the upper right corner. It appears to have  no purpose other than to annoy me. How do I get rid of it? I'm on Win 7.
    TIA

    If it's simply an icon, then try deleting it from the desktop.

  • How to get rid of folder icon for multiple bookmarks showing in bookmark toolbar - takes up space

    Firefox 4 added a folder icon to any bookmark that had multiple bookmarks. The arrow was enough from previous version - now the number of bookmarks shown across the top - single OR ones that pulled down to show the multiple ones in it - is cut in half. How to you get rid of these stupid little folder icons?!!!!!!! Not only do they have this new icon, but they still have the side arrow.

    So, I see that 28 other people have responded that they have this same problem. Isn't SOMEONE associated with FireFox going to address this?

  • How to get rid of message "Backup disk not available"?

    I use an external disk for Time Machine.
    I switch the disk on every couple of days. In the mean time, I get a warning message every hour that:
    "Time Machine could not complete the backup, The backup disk is not available".
    How can I get rid of this message? It is really becoming irritating.

    that kind of beats the purpose of TM backups, which are usually happening on an hourly basis. if you intend to continue this way, you might as well forget about TM and rather create a bootable clone of your startup disk every couple of days. Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper will even allow you to do incremental clones.
    another option would be to change the frequency of TM backups using _*Time Machine Editor*_.

  • How to get rid of Veriface Icon at Log In Screen

    When I boot up my Yoga2Pro in Windows 8.1, I get the sign in screen to enter my four-digit Pin. If I hit the left arrow, I go to a screen which has my "guest" account and then a Veriface Icon. 
    Is this the normal default?  I don't remember the Veriface Icon being there before, or maybe I just didn't notice.
    Is there anyway to get rid of the Veriface Icon without uninstalling the program? I could not find Veriface in my start up menu, and when I opened the program I could not find any settings. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Ended up uninstalling program. Issue gone. Seems to boot a little faster not that it didn't boot fast before.

  • How to get rid of update icon after updating apps

    So, since updating to iOS 7, I've noticed that any apps I update now show a small round blue icon next to the app name.
    I get that this is supposed to let us know which apps have been updated, but is there any way to get rid of them all at once?
    So far all I've seen is that you have to open each updated app one at a time to get rid of it.
    Thanks in advance.

    There is no way of doing that

  • How to get rid of modem icon on the menu bar?

    Migration Assistant was very helpful transfering all my relevant settings from PowerBook to a new PowerMac but it also placed a modem icon on the menu bar. Trouble is I do not have a dial-up modem and would like to remove the icon now. Does anyone now how to do it? Clicking and control-clicking the icon only brings out a short pull-down menu with no option to remove the icon. Nor could I find anything in Network Preferences.
    Thank you.

    If it's like other menu bar icons, you can Command-drag it off of the menu bar (or to change its position).
    The actual switch for modem icon display is in Network Preferences, Internal Modem network interface, Modem tab.

  • How to get rid of printer icon on the dock ?

    I have noticed that when I print a document, an icon for my printer appears on the dock. Unlike in the Tiger OS, this icon remains on the dock after printing is completed, taking up precious dock real estate. This occurs for both my Brother and Canon printers.
    Is there a pref setting that I can make to have the printer utility close automatically after printing is completed so its icon doesn't remain on the dock? Thanks.

    Control-click on the printer Dock icon and select Auto Quit.
    Regards.
