Removing an obsolete icon next to clock...how?

In the task bar (upper right corner where clock is, not sure what it is called) I have an icon for Kensington Slimblade track ball. I don't use this any more, the software has been uninstalled, but I don't see how to remove the icon.
It is grayed out.
Any ideas?
thanks
bob

You probably didn't uninstall using the uninstaller, otherwise I'd think it would have been removed for you. Fortunately, you can at least get the item off the menu bar (that's the correct name for it) by holding down command, click the item and keep the mouse button down and drag it off the menu bar.

Process runs in the background and shown as an icon next the clock (how to?

Hi guys,
I have a program that runs in the background (a daemon). It refers to a database and make some calculations. If it's not activated, the database will lack some critical information. For this propose, I eliminated the closing option from the user (it's a gui); so if the user wants to close it he must terminated the application from the 'window task manager'.
Question: how can I place this process as a small icon next to the clock on the lower right side? I don't want the process to be shown on the taskbar.
Thanks for any idea

The JDesktop Integration Components (JDIC) project aims to make Java� technology-based applications ("Java applications") first-class citizens of current desktop platforms without sacrificing platform independence.
This demo application demonstrates functionality in the JDIC APIs org.jdesktop.jdic.tray package.
It creates a tray icon on the desktop (in the System Tray Area for Windows platforms, or in the Notification Area for Unix platforms), with a caption (text), an animated icon, and an associated Swing menu containing icons. It also has a tooltip displayed when the mouse hovers over the tray icon.

How do I remove the Icons next to each bookmark on the bookmark toolbar? They take up too much space and all the bookmarks I need on the toolbar dont show up.

On my bookmarks toolbar, each bookmark has the associated webpage icon next to it. I would like to remove those icons, as they take up too much space.
Thanks

The icons, if you are familiar with them or they are obvious, take up less space than the words. You can abbreviate the names down to next to nothing or even nothing.
To save space and help organization you can group bookmarks into folders on your Bookmarks toolbar.

How do I stop my MacBook removing all my icons from the desktop ?

How do I stop my MacBook removing all my icons from the desktop ?

Hi Matt
After I create say a word document, file it on my desktop and then shut down my machine. The next time I open up the MacBook the file icon has been removed from the desktop. I can still retrieve the file in a folder labeled with the month I created it. But why has the OS removed it from the desktop and how can I stop it happening?
It happens to alias icons as well!

How Can I Remove the Finder Icon From the Dock?

Hi! Can someone tell me how to remove the Finder icon from the dock? I don't even care if Finder quits. I just want it removed from the dock. I really don't care if I can't get to my files. Please help.

Start by going to your core services, (/system/library/coreservices). You can do this by pressing Shift+Cmd+G and then paste (/system/library/coreservices), without parentheses.
After doing this, find Dock.app, right click, show package contents. This doesn't contain the icons on your dock, just finder and trash.
After that, move all finder services to the desktop, and then erase them from the core services folder. At this point it will prompt you to put in your password, do so.
Next you'll want to open terminal and type 'killall dock' or, you could restart your computer.
This should remove the finder icon from your dock, while still giving you access to it from your desktop.
Hope this helps!

How do you remove the Messages icon from iPad.

How can I remove the Messages icon from iPad.

The preinstalled apps cannot be deleted. You can move it into a folder and place the folder on another screen if you don't want to use the app or see the icon.
Tap and hold down on the icon until it begins wiggling and then drag the wiggling icon on top of another icon - any other app that you do not want to use would be ideal - and that will create a folder. Name the folder whatever you like. Tap anywhere outside of the folder to close it.
While the folder and icons are still wiggling - drag the folder over to the edge of the screen - about halfway over - and just hold it there for a second or so and it will jump over to the next screen. When you are done - Tap the home button to stop the apps from wiggling.

Wait for Next Sample Clock error, or 'How do I put this VI on a diet'?

Hello!
In the attached VI I've been running since June, I have all the functionality I need. No questions there at all, thanks to much time and help from this board!
My nagging problem is that any time I use the PC for other minor tasks other than Labview, it will display the following error:
209802 occurred at DAQmx Wait For Next Sample Clock.vi:1
A search earlier in the month indicated that it could have been a result of my old and outdated PC; I've since replaced it with a brand-new dell dimension 1100. Celeron 2.53ghz with 1.00gb of ram. Should be enough to service Labview and other minor tasks (automatic antivirus updating and also maintenance tasks). However, any time any other program opens or even if the screen is scrolled around on Labview quickly, I get that same error.
Resource usage when idle, with nothing but this VI running is 5-10%, all labview. Upon scrolling the VI, it quickly jumps to the 58-60% and above mark and soon throws that error.
I know that there's a lot of code here that can be cleaner--I know that even though it's functioning correctly, there could be a less resource-hogging way to go about it. Can anyone give me any suggestions on how to make this VI a little 'lighter'?
Thanks so much in advance,
Ralph
Still confused after 8 years.

Hi Ralph,
The wait.vi waits until the amount of time has passed. While the wait on next ms.vi uses some kind of quotient and remainder on the computer time until the remainder passed zero.
In this way you can synchronize 2 loops, and somehow it is less time-consuming. The only difference you will see is in the first run!
There you see a smaller amount of time:

My MacBook Air 13' (2013) will occasionally start the fan at full blast, not connect to any wifi or detect any wifi, and will remove the battery icon from my menu bad as well as tell me there is no battery connected. How do I fix this?

My MacBook Air 13' (2013) will occasionally start the fan at full blast, not connect to any wifi or detect any wifi, and will remove the battery icon from my menu bad as well as tell me there is no battery connected. How do I fix this? I have restarted my computer multiple times, **** it down, and ran a diagnostic test to tell me nothing is wrong and my computer is not running any applications. There is no reason for the fan to be on full blast! when I try to set the option to show my battery icon in the menu bar, it will automatically uncheck. How do I fix all of this?

Have you tried SMC and PRAM resets?

How can I get an item that has the broadcast icon next to it into MP3 format so I can put it on my ipod nano?

Question: how can I get an item in my itunes library, on my mac os 10.6.7 that has a broadcast icon next to it into MP3 format so I can play it on my ipod? right now it won't let me, and it's very frustrating!!!! thanks

I might have misunderstood what you mean by the "broadcast icon," but if you are talking about an audio stream, then there is just no way you can convert a stream to MP3. What this would involve is either recording the stream, and then you would just be replaying the recorded audio on your iPod (is this what you are trying to achieve?), or reading the stream directly on your iPod, which an iPod nano does not support (it would need wireless connectivity).
Hope this helps

unpair your phone from your car, then do a re-pair.
