Mystery icons & Add an icon map

Hello all.
I've run into a somewhat stupid, but nether the less frustrating, issue...
On Android, there are mystery icons all over my messages which are explained no-where.
E.g. I have trawled this forum and google to find out what the orange circle with a white exclamation mark in it means, and have found nothing.
This is not the only example however, there are numerous icons / symbols used by the app that simply have 0 explanation on this site, in the app's help, or when you long press them. 
I'm 25, I've owned every phone from the 3310 through to prototype android devices, I work in the tech sector... I'd like to think I'm rasonably tech savy. Yet here I am looking at unexplained icons and I cannot find out what they mean!
First up, can someone let me know what the heck this orange circle and exclamation mark means, as it's stopping all my outgoing Skype to SMS messages (yes I have credit and signal and have updated my OS & reinstalled Skype).
Secondly, Skype make an icon map!!! It's both bad practise and just plain lazy to have unexplaned symbols in your app.
Rant over

Hi and welcome to the Skype Community,
Can you share a screenshot?
Where is that icon shown? Next to IMs or SMS messages?

  • Mystery icon, KDE [solved]

    Hi,
    Really stupid question, but a mystery icon has appeared in my KDE panel. Clicking it has no effect. Removing the panel and adding a new one results in the icon reappearing.
    Does anyone have any idea what it might be?
    Link to screenshot below, the icon is the brown box like icon next to my volume icon

  • A mysterious icon shows up in my menu bar

    For the past several weeks, a mysterious icon, which looks like a crude drawing of a castle, loads in my menu bar I when I log on. It only shows up briefly while I am logging in. When I click on it, I get the spinning beach ball.
    Does anyone know what this icon is? I haven't installed any new apps though I might have changed some preferences of a few (none of which have an icon that looks like a castle). I am worried that this icon could represent some malware that I have inadvertently downloaded onto my iMac.
    At another Mac website, I was advised to check all the .menu files since those are the ones that load in the menu bar. Unfortunately, the find command does not search the system folder or application packages, the 2 places where I would find the .menu file responsible for the disappearing castle icon in my menu bar.
    Any other suggestions?? Thanks for any advice on this peculiar issue!!

    Steven,
    Thanks for solving the mystery!! Yes, it was the NetUpdate X4 icon. Unfortunately, the preference pane for it is bugged so it won't let me turn it off. I will just reinstall the application.
    Thanks again!!!

  • Mystery icon in Mailbox column headers

    For no apparent reason, now when I create a new mailbox, the first column header contains a mystery icon consisting of two arrows, one pointing northwest and the other pointing southeast. When I right-click on the headers, there is no corresponding item in the pop-up menu (e.g. Attachments, To, From), so I have no clue what it is, nor can I hide it.
    Mailboxes I created prior to whatever it is that changed do not have this icon. I have not changed my OS, nor the version of Mail I am using. Can anyone tell me what this icon/column is for, and how I can get rid of it??
    Thanks!

  • Enterprise SecMgr: Can't add Database Schema Mapping to OracleDefaultDomain

    Hello,
    I'm trying to configure Enterprise Users (using a shared schema) and within EntSecMgr, I select...
    Realms / MyID realm / Enterprise Domains / OracleDefaultDomain / Enterprise Roles / OracleDefaultDomain / Database Schema Mapping
    and from there, I try to add the Directory Entry and schema. I don't get any errors when I click "OK", but the Database Schema mapping does not "take".
    I notice the little icon next to OracleDefaultDomain (in ESM) has a "lock", so perhaps it's read-only? How can I change that, or where should I be assigning the Database Schema mapping, if not in the OracleDefaultDomain?

    I never did figure out why I can't add the Database Schema Mapping to the OracleDefaultDomain, but I used ESM to add the schema mapping directly to the database itself, and now my Enterprise Users can login.

  • How do I add a "Site Map" to my website?

    I must be dumb but I can't seem to figure out how to add a "Site Map" page to my website.
    I thought it would be neat to have it look like the the plan view with thumbnails of the pages and the graphic of how the pages flow....

    goingbald,
    There are two ways to add something into a footer on muse. One, right click on the item you want to be a footer and select "Footer Item."
    Two, on the very top of the page there is an unchecked box that reads "footer." Select that and you will also have a footer item.
    Make sure to make this on a master page if you have a lot of pages you are working with.
    You can also email me with any more questions at [email protected]
    Hope that helped,

  • How to add a new mapping file

    I am using SSIS (SQL Server 2008) to replicate from an ODBC source (using .NET Framework Data Provider for ODBC) to SQL Server.
    I am using the Import/Export Wizard and encountering the problem described in KB 152728:
    SSIS 2008 Import Export Wizard can show numbers instead of data type
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2152728
    I am trying to add a new mapping file in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\MappingFiles, but it appears that the new mapping file is not being noticed by the wizard - the dialog box of the wizard (COnvert Types without Conversion Checking) still
    displays
    Source Information:
    Cannot locate the mapping file to map the provider types to SSIS types
    I tried creating a new mapping file by copying an existing one (DB2ToMSSql10.XML), renaming it ODBCToMSSql10.XML (as near as I can tell, the filename doesn't matter), and changing the SourceType line:
    SourceType="System.Data.Odbc.OdbcConnection"
    Is there anything else I need to do?  I was expecting I might find a file that SSIS uses to figure out which mapping file to use, but I was unsuccessful, so I think it looks at the SourceType line.
    The following is the full output of the dialog - perhaps I should be modifying DTS\binn\DtwTypeConversion.xml instead?  But that seems messier than creating a new file in DTS\MappingFiles:
    [Source Information]
    Cannot locate the mapping file to map the provider types to SSIS types
    [Destination Information]
    Destination Location : (local)
    Destination Provider : SQLNCLI10
    Mapping file (to SSIS type): c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\MappingFiles\MSSQLToSSIS10.XML
    [Conversion Table]
    SSIS conversion file: c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\binn\DtwTypeConversion.xml

    Hi, did you ever get a solution to this issue? I'm having a similar challenge trying to create a new mapping file which is not being detected by the import wizard.
    Please let me know.

  • Is there an easy way to add a location map to Pages?

    Hi,
    Using the latest version of Pages, is there an easy way to add a location map?
    Many Thanks
    Simon.

    Are you trying to copy an image from the Maps application? 
    If you are, the easiest way I have found to do this is by going to Edit>Copy in Maps and then pasting the image in the Pages document. 

  • How to add a bing map with pins to a Siena Project

    Hi
    I just want to add a bing map with the current location and a few nice pins of some nice locations around me. Comming out of a Excel file. Potentially also draw some routing lines into the bing maps.
    Any ideas how I can accomplish that goal?
    Thank you in advance
    wbr.
    Joerg 

    yes you can (there is actaully one on the map, blue square)
    The syntax is listed on
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff701724.aspx
    You will however have to build the correct string to included in the image source (which you can do in the source excel or in runtime in siena)
    Concatenate is suitable to do that.
    http://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Imagery/Map/Road?pp=47.638197,-122.131378;;1&ms=350,500&key=KEYHERE
    the PP indicates the pin actually and the bing map autocenters on that. You have several options listed on the webpage listed above. It's a question of the one fitting you best.
    Please note that your bing key is yours so you need to hide it well enough.

  • How to add a link (map) on meeting requests sent outside my organisation - Help!?

    Hello,
    We've got Exchange 2013 servers, I have a need to add a Google map link of our office location into messages (preferably meeting requests) that is sent to outside our organization.  I had been looking around the rules in ECP but can not find anything
    familiar in the "Do the following." section.

    Thanks a lot to Mr. Albert and Lynn... the feedback is interesting.  Few questions though
    1) We do already have a disclaimer1 tagged to all outside emails (referring to Our company and its policies - the usual one)
    2- If I add a disclaimer2  to add the Googlemaps link like above - what do I have to do to sort the order like i.e  - a message sent to outside should look like a)message body, b)the Sender Signature, c) Disclaimer1 : company rules etc textxxxxxxx,
    d) Our office location (disclaimer2). 
    3- I just realize I can edit existing disclaimer 1 and add the map link at the end, now the dream: is there a way to hyperlink it under a text:
    My company HO location> the link
    Further tips would be awesome

  • Cannot add users to mapped third party group

    when i try to add a user to a group i get the following message
    "cannot add users to mapped third party group"

    If a group was mapped in via AD/LDAP/SAP then the users must be added in the 3rd party (AD/LDAP/SAP) you cannot create members inthe CMC. This is by product design. If you want to add members to groups in the CMC they must be enterprise groups only (groups created in the CMC not mapped in from 3rd parties).

  • HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map.

    Well this morning I woke up to see that my site hosted on Windows Azure was producing 50X errors and in general being incredibly slow (up to 60 seconds response time).
    Now after looking through the DetailedErrors folder I see that the error received is:

    I tried creating a new test website and host it and guess what? I receive the exact same error here as well.
    What could be causing this?
