I have garage band on my I pad and from what I can tell I have done everything right with the latest updates and icloud enabled on the i pad and app. A cloud is in the upper right corner of the song but when I look on my icloud drive on a internet browser on my PC it is not there. Any reason why?
Bring your phone into Apple for evaluation

So at the top of my screen like where the time is... there is this symbol that looks like a lock with a circle around it. It is next to the battery icon. What does this mean?
It's the screen orientation lock. It prevents the screen from switching between portrait and landscape views when you turn the iPod.
To engage or disengage this feature, double click the home button. This will bring up the multitasking tray. Swipe all the way to the left until you see the iPod controls, then tap the gray icon with the lock on it. This will toggle the feature on and off. -
my 3gs has a icon at the top right next to the battery life that looks like a lock with an arrow around it and i dont know what it mean or what i did to get it there any help?
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.

You have activated rotation lock. Check the little switch near the volume control.

What does a 2 on the upper right corner of the Mail icon mean? When opened, the app is essentially blank and unresponsive. We've been using Mail for weeks.
Thanks. I used an Apple in 79-81, and got the first PC in EDS (Ross Perot) in Jan, 82. Installed corporate email in 83. Now have 4 pcs in a house of 2 people, supporting our 5 kids and 15 grandkids. The iPad is what it took to get my wife to use her own email address. I should have known about the red circle - my bad. I did get fixed with a reset. Vern Olson

I'm having this problem. It started yesterday. I have 2 updates, but when I open the App Store, they won't appear.
Do you have apps purchased with a differnt AppleID?
For example, mine shows 12 updates but only 2 show up as being available.
The others are on my daughters account.
I log out of my iTunes account and log in with hers and those updates show up. -
I have asked to download a video from an online grabber. It started downloading and the process was showing how much time was left (on the display showing download process) the icon next to the HOME icon on the upper right side of the browser.
I usually click on the icon and it gives me the option "show all downloads". It wasn't working and this is not the first time!
Last time i had to stop a giant download and i couldn't. Even when i restarted FIREFOX it was still running in the background.
I knew this because when i came to close all tabs it said "this will cancel current download".
I had to REINSTALL from ZERO the Firefox.
But now i have this problem where i can't see all the download page. This is the second time and i think it is related to the online video grabber.Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
Thank you. -
i have an iphone that is using battery life much more quickly than in the past, a full charge is going to zero in a half a day or so, with out much use.
an icon is also appearing next to the charge percentage in the top right, and the icon is a circle around a lock
can anyone tell me what the problem is, and what the icon means?The Icon meas your display orientation is locked to vertical so it wont change when you turn the phone sideways.
First thing you should check with the battery life is multitasking, which also happens to be where the orientation lock can be turned off. check out http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4211 and go from there -
I have noticed a new icon at the right upper corner on my iPad. It looks like a lock with a circular arrow around it. What does it mean?
This is simply he rotation lock icon showing up. It means that your iPad 2 running iOS 5.5.1 is "locked" in either portrait or landscape mode. This restricts the screen from rotating when you tilt it. This feature can be very useful in certain cases. To disable this feature, simply double tap on the home button to access the multitasking menu. From there, swipe to the right and tap the icon that looks like a lock with a circle around it. Depending on the settings on your iPad, you may have to turn off rotation lock by flipping the switch directly above the volume switch into the opposite position as it is in now. Hope this helped! Reply back if you have any further questions! It was my pleasure to help you today.

A circled number appears in the upper right corner of the iCal icon on my Mac Book Air. What does it mean? How do I resolve it? Why doesn't it appear on my 4S iPhone via the iCloud?
Glenn,
That number means that you have an event invitation. Use iCal>View>Show Notifications to choose what to do with the notification. Since OS X 10.7.2 is required for iCloud integration, I am not surprised that there are anomalies between the iPhone and the MacBook Pro. -
When ever i try to migrate to another page, the browser puts up a blank page with the message that Firefox stopped the loading of the page, and there is an allow button in the upper right corner of the blank page, which i have to click on, to get to the page i want to travel to.
is this normal, and how do i fix it?can you try restarting Firefox in safe mode.

iphone - double tap the home button (the round button with the white square) then drag your finger across the button across the bottom of the screen (left to right) when the quick access bar opens. then u will see a icon on the left hand side that looks like that icon next to the battery. tap on that and it will disable the rotation lock fetcher
ipad - double tap the home button (the round button with the white square) then drag your finger across the button across the bottom of the screen (left to right) when the quick access bar opens. then u will see a icon on the left hand side that looks like that icon next to the battery. tap on that and it will disable the rotation lock. if it dose not open try the switch on the side of the ipad that is a rotation lock switch in ios 3.x and in ios 4.3 it has the option to be a rotation lock switch.

What is the lock symbol with the circle around it in the upper right hand side of screen and what does it mean?
Thank you.
Would there be any particular reason why my iPad will not join my wireless internet at home but my iPhone and Macbook are joined? I thought that sign was hindering the connect but that is completely unrelated. -
I have a small icon at the top right of my iphone 4G right to the left of the battery percent. What is this and how do I get rid of it? It looks like a lock with a circle 3/4 of the way around it
That icon indicates your iPhone is rotation locked.
To remove it, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to open Control Center. Tap the similar looking icon there to turn it off.
