Red Dot

Hey There,
I have an iPhone 3G. On the phone icon, a red dot has appeared on the voicemail & it won't go away. I don't have voicemail on my account so I don't understand why it would be showing the red dot.
I took it to 2 geniuse meetings at two different apple stores and I got two different answers:
it's a no service indicator
There's something wrong with your SYM card
Is anyone else having this problem???
Thanks,
Apple_Baby

If you're with AT&T and the phone is not jailbroken then you absolutely have VM...it comes with the service...
The red dot indicator for Mail or VM on jailbroken phones only shows the red dot and not a number within the red dot, which is the legal design, that number would correspond to the number of new emails or VM's you have. sounds to me like you are using a jailbroken device and thus we won't be much help here...

  • How do I make the new voicemail notification (red dot) go away on iPhone 4?

    I got a voicemail and listened to it and deleted it. now the little red dot over the phone icon is still on and won't go away. I have iPhone 4 and just updated to 4.3.5. I'm with TELUS in Canada. Any help would be apreciated.

    why did you revive a thread that had been dead for two years? next time, make sure you're posting on an active thread.

    I had the exact same problem. Iphone 5s on SpeakOut711/Rogers, Canada. There was no voicemail message, and yet the voicemail icon one the phone (dual spools thingy) stays on, regarless of how many times I check my voicemail.
    I got it to 'reset' like this:
    - Call your own cell phone and leave yourself a voice message.
    - Wait for a few minutes.
    - Check your voicemail from your cell phone by pressing (touching?) the voicemail icon which has the red dot (although it may also work if you checked via land line, but not sure).
    - Delete your message.
    You will notice that the icon disappears as soon as you hangup your call. It looks like some voicermail notification sync error between phone and the service provider.
    Hope this helps someone.

  • How do I remove red dot update from App Store icon

    I just updated nine iPhone apps via iTunes during a recent sync of my iPhone (5s OSv8.1.2). Update and sync both went fine without a hitch. However, the App Store icon on my iPhone still has a red notification dot with a number 9. I've gone into the app, selected Updates, and noticed that all nine apps are listed there with an "Open" box next to them. I've opened each app and each works fine. I've powered off the phone; same problem.
    How do I remove the red dot notification next to the App Store app?
    Thanks.

    Hello, I finally went to the App Store support who rang me back and went through it.  It seems that Mountain Lion will not operate iPhoto 9.3.2, you have to have 9.4.2.  So trashed the application in my Applications folder (which has cleared my App Store of the hanging iPhoto updater) and they signposted me to the download for 9.4.2 (mind you it is taking hours to download!!)  I live in hope that this will fix it.  If it doesn't I'll let you know!

  • What do I do when I have a red dot on my voicemails and it won't go away and no one can leave me voicemails

    There is a red dot in my voicemails and when I click on voicemails it calls it and says to type in my 10digit phone number and when I do it says it's not set up and I don't know how to do that. But then my friend called me and it stopped ringing on my phone and said I had a missed call from her but it kept ringing on hers. I don't know what to do!

    Contact your carrier. Voice Mail is a carrier function, and setup and management differs from carrier to carrier.

  • Red line with matching red dot imovie 11

    Hi All,
    I'm just getting to know iMovie 11 and am now only baffled by a few things.. One of which is this red vertical line with a red dot that I sometimes make appear on the timeline... I'm not sure what it's for but would love to know! I've tried searching online to figure it out but I assume because I don't know what it's called, it's very hard to find anything about it...
    Does anyone know what I mean and can you point me in the right direction of where to find out what it is and how it's used?
    Thanks!

    I found a work around... If you copy and paste the video files into the events folder it adds them when you create a new project. I'm not really happy about doing it this way, but at least I can finish editing my clips

  • Please help. How can I get rid of this red dotted border around my navigation bar images?

    If you go to my site here...
    http://metalwolf92.zymichost.com/
    And left-click and hold down your mouse, but don't release, on any of the navigation button images. Notice the red dotted border? How can I get rid of those?
    All images already have border set to 0.

    I just noticed your page has no css. so in Code View, replace this closing tag:
    </head>
    with this:
    <style type="text/css">
    a:active {
      outline: none;
    </style>

  • What is the process for connecting ethernet.  Have ethernet cable connected to stereo received for internet radio and Blue Ray. However Network System Preferences indicates ethernet not connected and has red dot to left.  Note Airport wireless is working.

    What is the process for connecting airport extreme ethernet?  I have ethernet cables connected to stereo receiver for internet radio and another to blue ray player.  The system preference network indicates "ethernet not connected" with red dot to left of this message.  The airport wireless works and has green dot to left of it.  The stereo receiver and blue ray player do not respond and give message not connect to internet.  Thank you.  /  cfpirate 

    It worked for me finally. I took out the DNS numbers in airport admin utility, and restarted the airport express. I do not remember putting the DNS numbers in, I wonder from where the airport express got those numbers.
    After restarting, it worked.
    Thanks!

  • HT1937 how do I get rid of the red dot on my iPhone, phone icon?

    How do I get rid of the red dot on my iPhone, phone icon ?

    If you did that already and looked at your recent calls and the red dot doesn't disappear then try rebooting the phone. Hold down the Sleep and the Home buttons until the Apple logo displays on the screen.

  • How do i get rid of the red dot on my voicemail which is deactivated

    how can i get rid of the red dot on the voice mail icon its driving me crazy
    please help

    Check to see if you have any old VM and listen/delete them.
    Try a reset... press the home and sleep/lock buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • Why do my saved / exported photos out of Lightroom have a little red dot on them?

    My edited photos in Lightroom look great.  But once I export them and take a look with another program (Photo Mechanic or Previewer), I see a little red dot on the photos.
    I have the latest version of Lightroom downloaded (5.7) and have tried restarting the program and re-exporting the photos but no dice.
    After further investigation via Google, I think this red dot is a "hot pixel" as it is showing up in every photo in the same spot.  Apparently this is caused by my camera sensor but I'm confused by this as my RAW files do not show the red dot, only when the photos have been converted to JPGs can you see it.  Stumped.

    Please show us a screen capture.

  • There is a red dot next to where my front camera is located. What is it

    I don't know why but as I was looking at my phone this morning, I noticed a little red dot next to my front camera. I'm not sure what this is &amp; how I need to fix it.

    I'm not sure what you mean by the "front" camera. Is it the one that you use for selfies, or the one that you take pictures of other stuff with?
    If it's the one on the back of the camera (the side that doesn't have the screen) that's the rangefinder.

  • My ipod touch updated on its own and now I can't access any of the songs, show ared circle with a red dot and won't play.  My computer says thye songs are alol on the ipod.  Fix?

    My ipod touch seems to have updated on its own, and now I can't access the songs, show a red circle with a red dot in the center.  Computer says the songs are still on the ipod.  Fix?

    I have the same problem. I bought a 3rd party software (tunejack) and it allowed me to transfer my songs to my new pc. Now I can't play them because I am not authorized. It says I am but then it says im not.

  • External monitor filled with static, blue squares, and red dots

         My family bought a Mac like 8 or so years ago. I am unsure of the exact model, but says iMac on the back (Which isn't very specific, so I apologise).
         You'd expect problems after a few years, so when our mac became cluttered with multi-coloured lines, I wasn't surprised.
         Eventually, it got to be a problem when the screen started to have larger lines whose lights seemed to be failing. It got to a point in which the whole screen had static, and there was very little of the screen that could actually be scene. It was easy enough to fix, we just got a new monitor.
    It did the job, no more lines, the screen did have a yellow tint, but I wasn't worried.
         Now, I was watching some youtube videos, then all of a sudden, both screens stopped, and red dots appeared. After countless efforts to exit the video, I unplugged the computer. When I turned it back on, it was even worse, with blue squares filling the screen, static filling it, and countless more red dots.
         While the external monitor does not have the multicoloured lines, and such, both seem to have the same blue squares, static and red dots, at least for what I can tell.
         Curiously enough, the waiting symbol for the cursor appeared and none of the screen problems overlapped the original.
    Did I do something to it?
    Is there some way to fix it, or will I have to get a new one?
    Also, I apologise if this question is in the wrong category, I'm new.

  • Why does all my iPhones music have red dots next to them and won't go away?? HELP!!!!!

    When h downloaded music on my iphone 5 four weeks ago, it had red dots next to every song and when I click on them they turn light red then back to red. They have a red circle with a red square in middle, and they won't load! :( They won't even let me delete the song    HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!

    I had this issue on my iphone 4, and two songs listed on the iPhone in iTunes had the dotted circle.  I researched it, and I found a hundred different answers.  Some were complicated like uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes.  All I did was this...  In iTunes under Music, I simply unchecked Sync Music, and I deleted all music from my iPhone.  I then checked Sync Music, chose all the songs I wanted.  No songs in iTunes had dotted circles, and all songs on my iPhone played.
