Top right corner, beside the power supply bar, ther is a padlock with a circle around it.  What does this icon mean?

On my ipod touch, in the right hand corner, beside the power bar.... a padlock with a circle around it has come up.  It doesn't change the actions of the ipod, but I'm just wondering what it means.

this meens that when you turn it landscape it wont turn. to fix this double click the home button then it will come up with the multi-screen options. Pull the bar to the left and there is a grey box with a circle and padlock in. Press this button and the sign will come off and you will be able to turn it landscape now. Hope this helps. It worked for me.

    That is the orientation lock indicator. It means that you phone will not go into landscape mode when tilted on it's side.
    To turn orientation lock off double tap the home button, to access the multitasking menu, then swipe your finger to the right over the multitasking bar at the bottom and touch the big button on the left with the padlock.

    Screen orientation lock.  Double click the home button to bring up the recent app bar.  Then finger swipe left-to-right to bring up the iPod controls.  The icon on the far left (circle with lock in it) is the orientation lock button - press it, and the lock will go away.

    It means you have enabled rotation lock, so the screen will not change from portrait to landscape when you rotate the phone.
    Double-press the HOME button, then slide the QuickLaunch ribbon from left to right to reveal the lock control icon.

  • Images have ? symbol on the top right corner of the thumbnail  what does this mean and how do I remove it?

    Q - My images have a
    ? symbol on the top right corner of the thumbnail what does this mean and how do I remove it?
    A - The
    ? symbol is used to identify a file that Lightroom can no longer access; probably because it has been moved using OS drag/drop or Move command rather than Lightroom.
    Click the
    ? symbol will cause a small dialog will appear. This dialog will provide information as to where the file was originally located along with an option to find (Locate) it again.
    As you'll quickly realise, clicking the
    ? symbol is fine for finding individual files that may have been relocated, but not for large numbers. There must be a better way
    Look at the Folder panel (left side of Library module) and you should find that the folder/subfolder containing the files that Lightroom can no longer find are shown in Red text. It is the red text that Lightroom uses to help you identify a folder/subfolder that contains files that it has lost track off.
    On the Mac you should
    Ctrl-click (right-click when using two button mouse) the folder/subfolder, a pop-up menu will appear. From the pop-up menu choose the command
    Locate Missing Folder, a dialog should appear. The dialog gives you access to every hard disk connected to your computer or CD/DVDs if they're in the tray. Use this dialog to navigate to the location where the folder is now located, then select this folder (not the files). Finally, press the
    Choose button and allow Lightroom to do its stuff.
    The method described above also applies to the PC version although the dialog is called
    Browse for Folder and the
    Choose button is replaced by
    OK.
    You can avoid getting into a situation were Lightroom looses track of your folders/subfolders by using a variation of above.
    A tutorial demonstrating above can be found

  • Images have ? symbol on the top right corner of the thumbnail

    Lightroom 2 crashed and now the RAW images I was processing have ? symbol on the top right corner of the thumbnail what does this mean and how do I remove it?
    The FAQ relating to this problem by Ian Lyons is dated - 03:39am Jun 9, 2007 Pacific refers to Lightroom and when I click on the ? no file or folder appears in red text.
    I am on a PC with XP Pro (Update pack #3)
    Any help in locating my files is greatly appreciated.
    Thank You,
    Hersul

    I've had these problems on my mac and pc.
    The ? mark appeared in the LR 2.0 Beta on some photos, and was still there in the latest Lr 2.0(bugga rather than beta). However LR found the photos and I was able to use the develop module to edit the photos.
    I am going to be really un helpful and say just ignore it and they WILL go away - to quote JL "its all fine in my system."
    The question marks have now gone. I tried the reboot, the delete plists and all the previews, I've rebooted, I compacted and relaunched the catalogs then went away for a couple of days leaving the mac on and LR running.
    into PC land.
    I frequently have missing thumbnails on my pc as well, this is usually after I have imported a chip full of photos and the pc has finished importing. Unlike my mac, the pc laptop does not tell me its finding / creating the previews.
    If I start to do other things straight after import, ie goto develop or scroll thru photos, I get the missing thumbnails and then LR2 hangs.
    It always looks good for clients when you say, hang on just gotta CTRL - ALT - DELETE and restart my expensive new program.
    I have found, as several people have commented, that being patient with lightroom does work. Allowing LR to background process the thumbnails, the previews and the like does seem to make things more smooth - ie all the ?'s gone in macland and no more blank thumbnails in pcland. Maybe Lightroom is just a sulky 4yr old that we have to feed, and wait for it to digest, then it is happy. It does seem like the database needs to process to work properly, Hey adobe, if this is the case, can we have a progress meter for this please.
    It seems that LR just needs to think about our photos... for a few days... i've only got 44,000 on my server so importing catalogs of the days work from the pc or chips does mean the "dreaded whirly umbrella of impatience" that spins when I select 3 photos or press Develop or bakc to Grid or Export or Stack or .... and it often spins for a long while.
    So the ? on thumbnails and the photos actually being found and able to be edited is just an annoyance, another annoyance, especially after spending more than the US citizens on an upgrade and there being more bugs than the beta.
    The blank thumbnails on a pc is just as frustrating, at least the database seems to be robust enough to allow CTRL- ALT - DELETE several times an hour.
    Still, i like LR, though bibble 5.0 pro looks interesting, bloody messy interface though....
    Maybe this version of lightroom is the bugga, the previous was the beta and we will get a LR2.23 which will be LR 2.23 brilliant.

    what is it?

    Quoted from the link I provided you with, in your other post.
    These alerts occur due to timeouts or conflicts trying to write a file during download.
    If you encounter this issue while accessing iTunes Store:
    See iTunes 9: "One Moment Please" or "Error (-50)" message when accessing iTunes Store
    If you encounter this issue while while downloading something from the iTunes Store:
    Delete your iTunes Downloads folder, located in:
    Mac OS X:
  ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Downloads   Note: "iTunes Media" may appear as "iTunes Music. Also, the tilde (~) refers to your Home directory.
    Windows Vista:

    If you encounter this issue while while downloading Digital Copies using Windows:
    Use MSCONFIG (directions for Windows XP and Windows Vista/Windows 7) to disable conflicting software.
    If using MSCONFIG steps resolves the issue, you may want to use the System Configuration Utility to turn on the third-party System Services and Startup Items one at a time (restarting your computer after turning on the item or items) to identify which System Service or Startup Item is causing the conflict.
    You can turn all of them back on by selecting the Normal Startup option under the General tab of the System Configuration Utility window, but please note that this may cause the issue to reoccur.
    If you are able to isolate the issue to a particular third-party software, you may wish to contact them to let them know of the conflict.

    My "Settings" is always showing a red 1 at the top right corner of the icon. There is no update at all, and this is annoying me. I restore my phone, make sure everything is up to date, and the number 1 is still showing. Anyone with this issue?

  • What does this message mean: "power pc applications are no longer supported"?

    What does this message mean: you can not start because power pc applications are no longer supported?

    Here is a post that I assembled for another who needed to continue to run his PowerPC applications in Lion/Mt. Lion:
    Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta.  Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
    However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion).  While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
    Workarounds:
    1. If your Mac will support it, restore OS X Snow Leopard;
    2.  If your Mac will support it, partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it and use the "dual-boot" method to choose between your PowerPC software or Lion/Mt. Lion;
    3.  Upgrade your software to Intel compatible versions, or find alternative software that will open your data files;
    3.  Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels:
                                  [click on image to enlarge]
    Full Snow Leopard installation instructions here:
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1365439
    NOTE: STEP ONE of the instructions must currently be completed on a Snow Leopard or Lion Mac and the resulting modified Snow Leopard.cdr install file can then be moved over to your Mountain Lion Mac for completion of the remaining steps.
    NOTE 2:  Computer games with complex, 3D or fast motion graphics make not work well or at all in virtualization.
