Strange "Help Icon" on start up

My G4 won't startup fully. I get a strange blue on white help icon in the upper right corner of the screen and that's it. The full menu bar never finishes coming up. I have tried repairing the disk, first with the install CD then with Disk Warrior. Disk Warrior says if fixed and replace the directory, but the G4 still won't finish starting up fully on restart.
Do I just need to reinstall the OS? or is the something else going on?

I get a strange blue on white help icon in the upper right corner of the screen and that's it.
Hi spenzmatik,
The blue and white icon is for Spotlight. have you tried starting in safe-mode (hold the shift key when booting up) and see if your able to get the menu bar to launch?

  • F4 help icon and Drop Down icon turned to input field in EHP4

    Hi,
    I am facing one strange problem, I have a system in which ECC6 with EHP3 was installed. Everthing was fine so far.
    But as soon as we have upgraded to EHP4 package level 2 Web Dynpro Applicaiton UI rendering problem started.
    1. F4 search help icon changed to input field like ui which does not takes any input but responds when user clicks on that field with normal F4 Search Help screen.
    2. Drop Down icon also changed to input field like ui which does not takes any input but responds when user clicks on that field with normal Drop Down appears.
    Any resolution for this?

    Hi,
    Yes, I also faced the same issues. I guess some patch levels you need to apply. Please approach your basis team for the same.
    One moe thing, As a temporary solution, try to increase the width of those UI elements so that you can be able to the dropdown icons and F4 help icons clearly.
    Try out this way.
    Regards,

  • Strange Voicemail Icons - Displaying 1+ and Voicemail (-1)

    I don't know why, but my iPhone recently started displaying a 1+ icon on the phone homescreen, and when I go to my voicemail page, I have the same 1+ icon and up at the top where it reads voicemail, it displays "Voicemail (-1)"
    Has anyone seen this problem before? I posted screenshots here:
    http://i.nconspicuo.us/2007/11/15/strange-iphone-icons-phone-1-voicemail-1-voice mail-1/
    Let me know if there is an easy solution to resolve this.

    reseting the phone is rebooting it
    hold the home and sleep/wake button ( the one on top) down at the same time
    keep holding them down when the slide to power off appears - after a few seconds more the screen will go blank you can let go - the apple logo will appear and the phone will reboot

  • Newbie with strange screen icon!

    Hi Had my 8520 Curve for a couple of months and it is a real love hate relationship! This phone does so much I just can't work it all! Anyhow I have had a strange uinidentified icon appear at the top of the screen just left of centre past the speaker symbol. It looks like a gold coloured globe with a grid on it and has the number 1 to its immediate left. What is it?

  • What happened to my Download Helper Icon?

    Ever since I updated FF to 3.6.8, I no longer see the icon for the Download Helper add-on. How do I get it back? I've tried customizing the toolbar, but add-ons are not presented as one of the options.
    Videos play just fine - have Shockwave Version: 10.1.82.76 installed. But I can't download Flash videos from any site now because the Download Helper icon is never presented when I start playing a video.

    In the Customize window, is there an icon with a label under it saying "Download Helper"? If so, drag it to the toolbar. Many extensions/add-ons place their icons in the Customize window and the user must put them on the toolbar. If the extension you refer to is this one: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006/ , be sure your options are set: Tools > Add-ons > Extensions, click Download Helper, click Options, on the DH Preferences window, click General, click Appearance tab.

  • The front camera on my iPod touch 4th generation is frozen. I cannot use it. Updating software does not help. This started right after I bought it, new from BestBuy. What can I do?

    The front camera on my iPod touch 4th generation is frozen. I cannot use it. Updating software does not help. This started right after I bought it, new from BestBuy. What can I do? When i go to the camera, it is stuck on a black screen. the only way to use my camera is through other camera apps, but if I try to switch it to the front camera, it freezes again.

    If you still have the problem after retoring the iPOd to factory defaults/new iPod then The iPod is likely defective and replacement is required.  You can make an appoinment at the Genius Bar of an APple store or take it back to BestBuy if within warranty

  • Help icon

    Hello
    Does anyone out there know of any way, via Apple or 3rd party app where I can download a help Icon. Or any rumours that Apple may integrate a feature like this in there "Core Software"
    Interactive icon when clicked upon - it will bring up a list of options of how to...stricly how to questions/answers
    How do I - Turn on/off airplane mode
    How do I highlight , copy text
    How do I - Help with Apps, install, remove
    How do I - Get/install latest software
    How do I - Visit Support Forums
    Apple devices have a book mark in browser for the userguide. I realize this. What about a icon for self serve as opposed to the userguide
    Blackberry devices have a help icon on the device that opens a how to section
    ...What about Android devices...any rumours????

    Just download your iPhone's manual from here:
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/
    Then add it to iBooks on your iPhone.

  • Help icon for inputListOfValues in a table

    Hi,
    In our application, we have an inputListOfValues component inside a table. We are using JDev 11.1.1.4.0. We have a requirement to add online help to this component.
    However, even though the helpTopicID is specified, the icon is not shown anywhere. I have observed that when this component is used in a form, the help icon precedes the component itself.
    Can someone please comment on this behavior.
    Thanks,
    Sruthi

    Sounds like a case for https://support.oracle.com (you could try testing on 11.1.1.5 first, to see if the behaviour is any different).

  • I need to reset Firefox, but the Help icon (first step) does not appear in the Menu.

    I am attempting to reset Firefox (for Linux/Ubuntu 12.04 LTS), which has gone a bit wonky... but following the procedure, the first thing is to select "Help" (icon "Question Mark) and proceed from there. Unfortunately, there is no help icon displayed in the choices as it is shown on the Firefox website.
    It's rather like trying to find a corner in a round room.
    As an aside, amongst the problems I am experiencing, is the appearance of green, grey, and black rectangular boxes in the browser window. Visually, it is like the text that usually appears there is being "masked" or something.
    (Perhaps) A propos of nothing.. this seems to have happened on the heels of a regular Ubuntu Update.
    Thanks for any advice/guidance.

    PS - I wanted to u/l a screen shot, but was unable to do.

    hello Jaguar07, you can also access that page directly by entering '''about:support''' into the address bar of your firefox browser.

  • There is a strange flower icon on my iPad screen. When I click on it, a picture of an angry teacher appears.  Does anyone know what this is?

    It is on the slide to unlock screen. Has anyone else seen this?

    Yes - we have all seen it. It is the Picture Frame app. If you tap on it - it starts a slideshow of pictures that are on your iPad. Settings>Picture Frame. Check it out. Tap on the icon to start the slideshow and then tap one of the photos to pause the slideshow. Tap the flower again to quit the slideshow.

  • Strange email problem; it started only loading unread emails, but from 3 months ago. It is now loading new emails too, but no emails in the past month, read or unread. It's gmail, set up through the phone, I've restarted restored

    Strange email problem; it started only loading unread emails, but from 3 months ago. It is now loading new emails too, but no emails in the past month, read or unread. It's gmail, set up through the phone, I've restarted restored and updated firmware, deleted the account, anything I could think of, but it's just not accurately downloading the most recent emails.

    The answer is very simple: You were not the original owner of the phone. Target sold you a phone that had been returned. You can verify the date of the original sale here: Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage. I suspect you will find that the warranty expiration date is not one year from the date that you bought it.
