Strange red or yellow number appears in top right corner of CoverFlow

Hello community,
iTunes version 7.5.0.20. Windows XP SP2.
I just noticed something this evening regarding iTunes and CoverFlow. In the top or upper right of the coverflow window (whether inside iTunes or fullscreen), there is this number. Sometimes it's one digit, sometimes two digits. It seems to change whenever I click somewhere in iTunes, or even when I interact with other programs. This number changes color from red to yellow after it reaches a certain threshold number which I have yet to determine.
For example, if I drag through coverflow left and right, this number turns yellow and seems to cap out around 60 (still yellow at this point). The lowest I have seen it is 1, at which time it appears red in color.
Another example: if I drag my Firefox window around the desktop, this number updates every second or so (sporadically) as if corresponding to my CPU usage.
A quick look at the Task Manager showed iTunes was using a whopping 150MB of memory at the time. Closing and subsequent re-opening of the program do not rid iTunes of this number.
I have never seen this before and it appears to be undocumented. Anyone know what this represents?

Here is a pic.

If for some reason that link doesn't work, copy and paste it into your URL bar and it should work fine. I can't figure out why it's not working when clicked.

    Hello Beat,
    thanks for your answer. But maybe I described it wrong. I have the logo still on my PDF-Document. I just want to have it on the top right corner and not, like it is now, on the left side of the paper. So the only question is how to move the logo to the top right corner?
    Kind regards

  • Quicktime seems to be showing FPS in to the top right corner of any media

    Glitchy stuff happening last couple of days.
    Any files I play in Quicktime are showing a yellow/red number in the top right corner while I play them. I assume this is frames per second display. The question is: Why the heck is this happening?
    The same thing is happening in Safari Top Sites. This is very weird and something is not right.

    I have discovered the culprit. I use an app called ATI Tray Tools to enable some functionality on the card (that I think Apple should be including..). For some reason this app enabled an FPS display for media. I have it disabled now.

    Hi Arun.
    I have the same problem, meaning I'm looking for a way to close a popup Window with the [X] button at the top-right corner.
    I switched from "Normal" screen to "Modal dialog box" and also created my PF-STATUS as a "Dialog box" but still nothing happens. When I press the [X] button I don't get to my PBO code at all.
    I even tried to debug (System debug activated) the [X] action but nothing is triggered.
    Any help will be appreciated.

  • Red light appearing in top left corner of touchscreen

    Has anyone else experienced this problem, where intermittently, a red light edge appears in top left corner of screen?
    Doesn't always appear.....which makes me think there is a defect with the screen itself.....any thoughts?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    It's the notification indicator. Swipe down from the corner to show the status bar, and you'll see an exclamation mark icon. Tap it to see the notification.

  • How to get a contact photo appears like in iphone ad (small on top right corner) when dialing or receive a call?

    Hello everybody, I just want to make any contact photo appears in right top corner as appears on iPhone Ads (small - Top right corner), I mean not Full screen.  when I make or receive a call??

    Hi,
    It comes up with a Small Contact image as it is Linked to the Facebook or Twitter Account.
    But if you edit the Contact and Upload the Image its not possible to get the Small Contact Image.
    A Contact needs to be linked to an Account.
    You can signin to Facebook and Update the Facebook Contact through:
    SETTINGS > FACEBOOK > Turn ON Contacts > UPDATE CONTACTS.
    Then,
    Go To CONTACTS > GROUPS > Select FACEBOOK.
    You Phone Contact will get Linked to the Phone Contacts with Small Contact Images.
    Check It....
    HOPE THIS RESOLVES YOUR ISSUE.

  • After installing iTunes 10.4.0.80 "file" "edit" etc items from menu bar at top right corner disappeared -when cursor is put in that spot a darker rectangle appears - similarly tabs for syncing iPhone are invisible

    After installing iTunes 10.4.0.80 "file" "edit" etc items from menu bar at top right corner disappeared -when cursor is put in that spot a darker rectangle appears - similarly tabs for syncing iPhone are invisible- and similarly small ovals appear when cursor is placed where tabs should be.

    Very many thanks to you, Putaro!  Your answer provided the solution. It was a buggy plug-in that turned out to be the culprit.
    You're off the hook, Apple, and my apologies for stating that you let a dog run loose. You skated by this time, Apple. But I'm watching you.
    But again, Putaro's reference to the plugins I had installed over the years turned out to illuminate the problem. I have several plugins in my iTunes plugins folder, pretty much all designed to add more visualizer functionality. I removed all of them, and ALL of the problems I noted in my post went away, with full iTunes functionality restored.
    I began adding the plugins back to hopefully single out the culprit. Among the ones I had been using included fielder, G-Force, Timestrech, volcanokit, QuartzComposer, and Jax. I hadn't used any of them in a while - probably at least a verison or more back in iTunes updates, but iTunes continued to work with all of them installed. Currently, only QuartzComposer continues to work in iTunes 10.4. The rest no longer even show up as visualizer opitons, with one exception. Jax does show up, but does not work. AND THE PRESENCE OF JAX IS WHAT KILLED MY ITUNES.
    I looked into it and went back to the developer, and it appears that they discontinued developing Jax some time ago - evidently, it was buggy and crash prone. I remember after buying it, having problems with it - having never worked to its touted potential, but I didn't pursue it, and never uninstalled it. Leaving it in there caused all iTunes functionality to cease with the iTunes 10.4 update.
    If you've got Jax installed, consider removing it before updating to iTunes 10.4.
    My iTunes is now working right as rain, thanks again to Putaro!
