That means that if you use online maps, it will consume data. If you're on WiFi, no worries. If you are on cellular data, then it will eat into your cellular data plan.

It means you have a hardware problem. That could be the screen itself or the graphics system, GPU.

What does it mean when a box pops up saying "The song could not be used because the origional file could not be found. Would you like ot locate it?"

A while ago, I was cleaning out some old pictures and music from my computer. I noticed there were a lot of songs that I did not recognize, and they had nothing to do with my itunes. I figured my step-dad or sister might have put those songs on my computer or something. So I deleted a few of them. The next day or so I realized all my music was gone from my itunes. I still had the account but everything was wiped clean, my music and playlists. I plugged in my ipod hoping it would restore all my music but nothing happened, I still had my music on my ipod and my cell phone. A friend of mine took my ipod, and put all of the music on a hard drive, gave me the hard drive and I transferred all of it in a folder onto my desktop. Then I drug that entire folder into my itunes library. When I click to play a song through itunes a box pops up and says "The song could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" When I click on the song to play it in the folder, it will go to itunes and then play it through there. But I cant just go click on the song in my itunes and play it.

It means the media is not where iTunes expects it to be.
iOS devices are not and have never been backup devices.
Are the files in question still on the computer?
If not, you should restore them from the backup of the computer. You do have a backup, correct?

What does it mean when there's a _ at the beginning of a username?

Example: _softwareupdate
Thanks.

OS X started using _ on system groups a few releases back; that convention started with 10.5.
I'd start your own thread for the groups question. As for any group limit, haven't seen that one with OS X; if you're hitting some limit with groups or ACLs or a tool you're using, you'll want to post up some details of the version (10.8?), the volume structure used the output of the id command and the ls -ale@ for the ACL.
The local root account has twenty groups, so I'm not sure what you're seeing with that limit.
Alternatively, you can log a bug directly with Apple asking for the limit to be increased.

What does it mean when boxes appear around commands on the ipad

Try triple-click on Home button (do it quick).

What does it mean when you get a pic of the cable on the sreen

I can't get my apple tv to work....it shows a cable and a apple tv symbol and now the screen is blank. "No Signal" is displayed. I've tried unplugging the power, changing the HDMI cable, and changing the TV. Anyone have any helpful feedback?

If have a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Disconnect the power and HDMI cables from Apple TV. Note: If you do not disconnect the power cable before connecting the micro USB cable, you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list.
Connect one end of a micro USB cable to the back of your Apple TV, and the other end to one of your computer's USB ports.
Apple TV (3rd generation) only: Reconnect the power cable to your Apple TV.
Open iTunes on your computer.
Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.

HT4199 What does it mean when I click on my wifi name and the bars come up but the network keeps thinking and the ipad says safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet. ?

What does it mean when I click on my wifi name and it show I'm on my wifi, but the network keeps thinking and the ipad says, Safari cannot open this page because it is not connected to the internet. ?

When you click on the WiFi network name, have you also provided the password for accessing the network? You should get a dialogue box asking you for the security information the first time you connect.
If you are not able to connect, you might want to go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings.
Then go back to Settings > WiFi and select your network name again and make sure the security information is now entered correctly.
If you still cannot connect, power down the router, wait a few minutes, power up the router, with the iPad powered down the whole time, and after the router has had several minutes to stabilize power up the iPad. See if it now connects correctly.

Sign out of the Mac App Store via the Store menu
Quit the Mac App Store
Log out of your Mac OS X user account (from the Apple menu)
Log back in to your user account
Launch the Mac App Store, sign in, and try downloading again
You should be able to download any app trouble free now. If you still have problems, reboot your Mac.

HT201359 What does it mean when a purchase is billed to "store credit"? Is it one of those iTunes gift vouchers? Only reason I ask is because I downloaded Ken Follit's FREE book from the 12 days of Christmas app and seem to have been charged 10.99 for it!

Thank you so much for the link. Am persevering thru it, will get there eventually, as I had already tried to press the Report a Problem link on the invoice, but it won' t connect to iTunes store on my iPad, it keeps saying can't connect. Infuriating. But thank you, you found me a link I would have taken ages to find.

What does it mean when your whole i phone screen turns green

What does it mean when your whole iphone 5 screen turns green

It means that you jailbroke your iPhone with redsn0w. There are several known methods to fixing this issue:
1. Plug it into your computer and restore
2. Plug it into your computer, then hold the power button for about 6 seconds
3. Hold the power button and the home button to restart it. As soon as it turns on, plug it into your computer and wait
4. Time. Sometimes it fixes itself over time.
I would suggest refraining from jailbreaking your device next time. I know it tempting to do so, but if you want to root your phone or play with emulators, I would suggest an android device. Btw, iOS 7 looks promising for the Apple community. Keep your ears peeled this week during WWDC.

What does it mean when I turn on my mac there is a file on the screen and it won't turn on?

What does it mean when I turn on my mac and a picture of a file comes up and it won't turn on? I hold the button and turn it off and try again and sometimes it goes on and other times the file comes back on.... do I have a virus? What should I do?

No, you don't have a virus, but if that folder has a flashing '?', it means your Mac can't find its' system:

What does it mean when your ipod is in recovery mode and how do I solve this problem

What does it mean when your ipod is in recovery mode and how do I solve this problem?

Unless you have a backup from which you can restore, yes you will lose all of your data and settings.
You should be able to sync your content back to the iPad if you have been syncing with iTunes all along. If you don't sync with iTunes, you can download much of your paid content again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID. This explains downloading past purchases.

Unfortunately, at this point, you must restore the device before you can move on. There is nothing you can do to avoid it now.

You can't do a backup of icloud to an external drive. In fact, does your post have anything to do with icloud (you're in the icloud forum)?
What kind of "system backup" are you doing? Are you using Time Machine?
