How can i get ipod nano to get the lock icon off the top left corner?

Hey, my moms ipod nano won`t sync to her computer. Now it has a lock icon in the top left corner and i can`t get it to go away. Can anyone help me?

I assume you have made sure the hold switch along the top of the Nano is set to Off?
If none of the 5 R's are able to resolve the issue, it's likely a hardware issue, meaning you'll need to have the iPod serviced/replaced either by Apple or a third party service.

The New Mail page no longer has an "address" icon at the top. what happened?

The New Mail page no longer has an "Address" icon at the top. What happened?

Big --
Go up to the "View" menu, and pull down the "Columns" and "Sort by" menu options. Do you see what you want there? When you say "Address" do you mean "From?"
Just saw BDA's response.
Are you talking about Safari, or the Mail app?

No, you will have to replace the switch or do an out-of-warranty replacement at an Apple Store.

Safari works great on my iMac, but not so well on my Macbook Pro since upgrading to Lion. I get a message that I am not connected to the internet when I try to open a webpage even though the wireless icon at the top of my screen shows I am connected.

Since upgrading to Lion I am having problems with Safari on my Macbook Pro. I am using wifi to access the internet and the internet works in all other application except for Safari. When I try to access a webpage most times I get a error message saying I am not connected to the internet. If I click on diagnose the problem, I get connect again to the internet through the diagnostic process and the webpage generally works. This is not a problem when wired to the internet.

Check your network settings, in particular the advanced setting "DNS Server". If it is by chance 127.0.0.1, make sure to change is and use a know DNS Server (from Google for example, or your own Router local address).

Most websites, including Mozilla, now have a locked banner at the top of the screen that blocks off some, or much more of my laptop screen, how can I stop this

Apparently we have forgotten how to scroll up to find the search field, donate button, etc. and website "designers" now include a locked banner at the top of your screen that you cannot close but remains in place as you scroll through what remains of the visible field to view half pictures, partial paragraphs, etc. Some of these are enormous, most of a middle size and some are thinner. None are necessary but fit neatly under the heading, "Just because you can does not mean you should." which programmers seem to disregard at will. Is there some way for me to maintain (re-establish) my possession of my desktop when visiting sites? These stupid and obstructive are unneeded and Mozilla ought to be ashamed that I am looking at "Mozilla support" at the upper left of my desktop, yes, I know I am in Mozilla support and haven't forgotten it since I got here, and "ÏNBOX" "Search Mozilla Support" at the upper right of my desktop. I haven't forgotten how to scroll up if I needed to search support, either...

We are simultaneously getting bigger and bigger monitors and smaller and smaller handhelds, so it's a challenge to serve the right page for your display. But I digress...
Those fixed bars are created using the style rule <code>position:fixed</code>. In some cases, the rule is added dynamically when you scroll the page, while in other cases, it is fixed full-time. Because you may actually want some elements to be fixed, it is difficult to create a fix-all solution that will work well for all sites.
For ad hoc page hacking, you could try this extension that allows removal of items using the right-click context menu:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nuke-anything-enhanced/
Sometimes it might take two clicks to find the outermost element (otherwise, you might leave a blank area instead of getting rid of the whole thing.
Some users use the Adblock Plus extension to hide page elements they don't want to see; I don't have any experience with that.
If there are particular sites you need help with, we might be able to create a custom style rule for you to override the way the page behaves. The best approach depends on exactly how it works.

Screen orientation lock. Double click the home button to bring up the recent app bar. Then finger swipe left-to-right to bring up the iPod controls. The icon on the far left (circle with lock in it) is the orientation lock button - press it, and the lock will go away.

Pad - LOCK icon in Upper Right Corner of Screen - How did it get there??

When I start my Mac (G5-10.4.11) for the first time I have an icon of a pad-lock in the upper right hand corner of my screen and appears in the 'closed or locked' position. I don't know how it got there. I think it has something to do with 'Keychain' but not sure. When I open Entourage (2008) to check my email for the first time following a boot sequence, Entourage asks me for a keychain password and after entering the password, the pad-lock icon in the upper right corner now indicates an 'open' or unlocked condition. I don't have to do this again as long as my computer stays on. I've tried changing the access setting in Keychain to 'ignore' Entourage and Keychain but it still asks me for a keychain password following a re-boot. What did I do to get the pad-lock icon there in the first place? And, how can I turn OFF that 'pad-lock' and not appear on my startup screen? I have another hard drive in my computer that I boot from occasionally and the "pad-lock' icon does not appear on my startup screen and I can check Entourage without entering any keychain password. I really don't need password protection on my home computer, it's very annoying every time I check my Entourage email.
Thanks,
Bill

Check "Keep login keychain unlocked" in the "First Aid" tab of Keychain Access (Utilities folder).
In the "General" tab, uncheck "Show Status in Menu Bar".

What happened to the lock icon at the bottom right hand corner?

When I would order items on line, I would see this lock icon at the bottom right hand corner of the window. I thought it meant the site was secure. Now I just see the fox head icon. I don't know if it's secure. Is it?
Nothing is wrong with firefox, but I don't know if this feature has been removed or moved elsewhere. It provided some sense of comfort seeing the lock icon on sites where I was ordering items.

In Firefox 4 and later you no longer have the Status bar that showed the padlock in previous Firefox versions.<br />
The padlock only shows that there is a secure connection and doesn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server.<br />
So you might still be connected to the wrong server if you make a typo in the URL and someone has claimed that mistyped URL.<br />
The functionality of the padlock has been replaced by the [[Site Identity Button]] on the left end of the location bar.<br />
