I am fairly new to iPhone and noticed yesterday that up by the bluetooth icon there is a small circle with a point on the end and a lock in the middle.  I cannot find out what this is in my manual

I am fairly new to the iPhone and noticed yesterday up by the Bluetooth icon a small circle that is 90% complete and has an arrow at the end and a small lock in the middle.  I have made no changes in my settings and cannot figure out what this is.  Any help would be appreciated. 
Thanks

Orientation lock.  See p. 13 of the iPhone User Guide.
You can turn this On/Off with Control Center (swipe up from off the bottom of the screen).  See p. 30 of the user guide.

  • HT204088 I've noticed a charge on my credit card for $8.49 each month.  I looked at my Apple iTunes purchases and don't see it in my purchase history.  How do I find out what this charge is for?

    If it's happening every month then it's likely to be an auto-renewing subscription - there are instructions on this page for managing and stopping them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098

  • When I go to About This Mac and click on Storage it shows 421.93GB as Other. This only leaves 46.85GB of 499.25GB free. How do I find out what this "Other" is so I can remove the stuff I don't need?

    What kind of use do you make of your MBP?  A lot of photo or video?  If so, you may be storing a lot of large files.  Look at Finder and see what the file system looks like.  Do you have large libraries of data files associated with applications?
    You may want to think about an external hard drive to use for backups and data storage, you can point applications to the external drive as the default storage location.
    A good source of external drives at a reasonable price is the Mac specialist, OWC, http://www.macsales.com
    I bought their Mercury Elite Pro 2 TB dirve last September and set it up to use part for Time Machine backup and part for other work space.  Setup with Disk utility into two partitions is very quick and easy.  Just remember to format as Extended Journaled with GUID partition table.  Setting the partition sizes is by using a braphical image on screen in DU so it is like falling off a log, so easy.

  • I am trying to set up my apple tv on a sony KDL - 40xbr4. The remote is a sony RM-V302. I plugged it into the HDMI IN on the side of the TV but cannot find out how to get to that input. I am at a winter rental property and brought my Apple TV with me.

    I am trying to set up my apple tv on a sony KDL - 40xbr4. The remote is a sony RM-V302. I plugged it into the HDMI IN on the side of the TV but cannot find out how to get to that input. I am at a winter rental property and brought my Apple TV with me. I did check internet for solutions. The instructions I found said to use a "home button" on the remote.  There isn't one. I sure would appreciate help if someone knows a solution.  My first post - hope I did this right.

    if its anything like my Sony, theres a button top left corner that upon each press i get an audible bleep and the AV inputs come up on screen, i then cycle down to whichever input i wish to select!
    in case your remote is different, the button on my remote has a square with a slightly smaller square just overlapping the first square.
    hope that helps?

  • I have a A4 document (569 pages) and within that A4 there are few A3's. Is there a way to isolate the A3's or find out what page numbers are A3's instead of scrolling through all the 569 pages???

    thank you for the info... however I'm done buying pdf readers.... I've got three now, that should suffice.
    I don't think there's a problem such as you mentioned because the pages are all similar : text and drawings. Some of the pages with drawings work, other similar pages don't.
    I converted with Calibre to epub format and this seems to work !!!
    So good so far...
    Now I need to find a conversion to pdf to allow me to use goodreader or iannotate.
    Basically... the text is ok, because a conversion allows reading. So a shortcoming by Apple in my opinion. Again, all pdf's should be readable on such an expensive tool !!!

  • Once I downloaded the new IOS 5.0 I've lost all of my photos that were stored on my PC, and I no longer have access to them on the IPOD.  Cannot figure out what has happened.  Please help.

    Thanks lllaass, but I am not computer literate and do not understand exactly what it is I am supposed to do.  All of my photos were stored on Microsoft Windows Live Photo Gallery.  When I now access the gallery the only thing that is there are the folders with the title of the folders.  The pictures that were in those folders are now gone. I can no longer access them on my IPOD either.  My photo library on my IPOD is now empty. 
    Thanks again for your help.

  • HT5996 What is the best way to find out what OS all Mac users on the server are running?

    I am the administrator of both Windows PC's as well as having 12 Mac-mini users.  I know several users have not updated their OS in quite a while.  Is there some way for me to find out what version a user is running beside going from one computer to another? 
    I do have OS X Server if that makes a difference.
    I have been working with Mac's for less than a year, so I'm a work in progress when it comes to the Mac World.
    Thanks!

    If you're able to log into those computers, check the content of the file /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist on them. If you're working from a Mac, you may also be able to find out by selecting the drive in the Finder and choosing Get Info from the File menu.

  • I was chardged 100.00 on my itunes account and i cannot find out what the charge is for

    help how can i find out why i was charged 100.00 on itunes

    If you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it - if you click on that you should get a list of your purchases with the most recent above the list. I'm not sure if that list shows auto-renewing subscriptions (I don't have any so I can't check).
    If you don't recognise the charge or can't find it then you can contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption.
    If it doesn't appear on your iTunes account then you should also contact your card issuer.

  • IPod 5th gen with limited storage space due to unknown space used? I don't have anything else loaded, how do I find out what this is?

    I have a 5th gen 32gb iPod that I use only for music. Usually I update it via wi fi but it recently updated to the new IOS 8. Now it is saying there is limited space capacity for the music because there is 18.85 gb of used space. I don't have any apps or features on the iPod and all the options such as Siri or App store are turned off. I simply carry it in my car for travel music and use my iPhone for all other business that would need apps/etc.
    I reset back to the factory settings and did not link back to the iCloud so it did not "reset" the old copy if it was corrupt. My iPhone has a ton of music plus apps, contacts, etc and does not show this same type of memory usage. Any idea what could be using so much and how to get rid of it??

    OTHER
    Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
    Come back with the results.
    An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.
    What is the Other on my iPhone and How to Remove It
    What is "Other" and What Can I Do About It?
    Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.

  • Where/how can i find out what this is doing

    I know this old but not concerned with that, just what is it doing,  this is java script in an .asp that loads
    a flash application, I'm most concerned/interested
    why it references a clsid?
    what is the code base all about? (is this embedding code in the browser? it does the embed everytime the app is loaded?)
    what is the PLUGINSPAGE?
    how does all this affect the opertion of the flash apps that run after this initializtion?
    this is kinda/somewhat/ normal for anytime /anyone running a flash app?
    It seems there's a lot going here, if too much to answer please just point me somewhere where i can RTFM, but
    please make it a good RTFM not a FWOT!!!
    flName = "default-app.swf"
    document.write('<OBJECT'
