Unexplained Blue Dot in Calendar

Hello,
I've been trying to figure out an unexplained blue dot on my calendar; it appears on a day in the month view when there are no events listed for that day. I've read through the forums and can see that people have encountered some issues when syncing all-day recurring events with Outlook but that doesn't really apply to my situation. I just have this one unexplained day and I don't sync the canlendar on my iPhone with any other devices or software. If anyone has experienced this or a similar problem, please let me know how you resolved it -- I'm a little bit of a type-A so this is driving me nuts
Thanks for any help anyone can offer.
Steve

Spot on. Or, maintaining the Mail analogy, probably more accurately 'unread' comment.

HT1296 red dot events in iphone calendar do not sync to outlook, only blue dot events

In first calendar sync with outlook after setting up iCloud account, there are numerous double entries for events on iPhone calendar, one with red dot and the other with blue dot. Also, some of red dot events on iPhone calendar do not sync to Outlook. How do I fix this?

Blue dot home events disappeared from my iPhone 4S calendar.

Blue dot home events were gone this morning from my iPhone 4S calendar. Any idea on how I can get them back? I've tried restarting. I thought they were backed up to iCloud b/c "iCloud Backup" is "on" on my phone but there are no current home events on my iCloud calendar ... The first time I remember looking at my calendar this morning, they were gone - they were there last night. I tried to install the latest iTunes version this morning, and it didn't work so I canceled the install, but my iPhone wasn't connected to the computer at that time ... otherwise everything has been status quo ... any ideas much appreciated! thx!

System Crashes after Blue Dots

It's mainly light blue dots that sometimes appear in small parts of contrast, like for example along the shadow of a window or something. Then if time goes by the blue dots become so many that they're all over my screen. They start creeping all over until my computer malfunctions, vertical lines of either blue or yellow appear and start flashing and kind of going from left and right like a meter would measure volume. Then my mouse stops moving, and shortly thereafter my system crashes!
It happens a few times a day. I've tried fsck and Disk Utility but it doesn't fix it. I know its not my OS because i recently changed from 10.2.8. to 10.4.2. and the problem carried on. Could I have a virus?

Avanmanandfriends please see Creative Cloud app doesn't open and hangs on spinning progress wheel - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-app-doesnt-open.html which discusses how to resolve your current error.

I have created a table on pages. Somehow I have set something so a blue dot appears every time I press he space bar. How did I do it? and how do I get rid of it?

two questions-- I have created a table on pages. Somehow every time I press the space bar, I get a blue dot between words--How did I do it? and How do I get rid of it. Also, I created a template on pages--How do I "save as" for a new file using that template?

All you are seeing is the word space (from the spacebar).
Menu > View > Hide Invisibles you had Show Invisibles on.
When you are using a template it should be named "Untitled" and it will ask you to save when you go to close or you simply go to Save under the File menu.

Blue dot on Iphone 5 photos with direct sunlight in them

I do not understand how this is not on EVERY SINGLE forum and website for the iphone 5. I recently purchased a new iphone 5s after struggling with a lot of issues with my 4. I bought my 5s a week and a half ago and promptly began having tons of server errors, apps crashing, calls failed and on and on. I also discovered that there was a VERY BRIGHT BLUE dot that showed up on every single phone and video taken that had any amount of direct sunlight in it (say goodbye to beautiful sunset pictures).
I went back into apple and was told to restore, and then completely clear my phone. I did everything they asked and when everything failed and after literally hours and hours on the computer and in person with technicians, I went in for a replacement yesterday. After three hours in the apple store I walked out of the store with what I thought was a perfect new phone. I went onto the street and took a short video. And you know what--there was a BRIGHT BLUE DOT on the video. So I went BACK into the apple store for the 10th time. I spoke to a salesperson and he had no idea what I was talking about. I showed him the video and he was baffled. I then picked up the other iphones and began testing them out. Every SINGLE one had this bright blue dot on the image or video when pointed toward sunlight. Apparently there is something with the new glass of these cameras that cannot handle direct sunlight (which is ridiculous to me). The sales person went and spoke to the Apple Technitions that were "downstairs" and they acknowledged, this is just the way it is, the glass cannot handle direct sunlight.
So, I thought, OK, well, I guess I will have to stop taking photos of sunsets and directly into the sun through cityscapes etc....I will do my very best to make peace with this..However, last night, I was taking photos of some lights at night and a variation of this happened again except with tons of little blue lights flaring of the christmas lights I was taking photos of.
As a videographer and photographer, the new iphone camera was a serious draw and factor in my newest purchase. The fact that EVERY SINGLE ONE of these current phones on the sales floor seem to have the same faulty hardware with their cameras absolutely blows my mind. What use is fancy glass on a camera if it takes shots with bright blue dots right in the middle of every screen? I would REALLY like to get some feedback from apple on this note because I am hugely dissapointed with this phone and blown away that this issue has not been addressed formally.

Under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, deselect Sync Photos followed by a sync. This should remove all photos transferred from your Mac to the iPhone. Follow this by reselecting Sync Photos and confirming your selections below followed by a sync.
If no change after this, try targeting or deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache on your computer.

Why does my mail have blue dots and won't open? My Internet is okay.

My Internet seems to be working fine. I have blue dots in front of each mail message and the messages won't send. Help.

If you can't open the messages or send emails, you can try quitting the mail app completely as well.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Tap the screen above the task bar.
Then go back and try mail again.

In Apple Mail, my new messages are coming in without the blue dot, as if the messages have already been read. Why? Has my computer been compromised?

I did not use my laptop all day. This evening, when I looked at my new e-mail from earlier today, only about 3 messages still had the blue dot, that shows on unread mail. I watched new messages come in. One new one came in with the blue (unread) dot, then maybe when the next new message came in, the blue dot disappeared from the first message, but appeared on the new message. The 2 subsequent e-mails came in without any blue dot. I had not highlighted or opened any of those 4 new e-mails, or any of the previously delivered e-mails from today. I cannot find anything in system preferences or in mail preferences that addresses this issue. Anyone know why this is happening? Has my computer been breached or hacked?

Ok, so even thought no one has answered, it appears that once I move mail to the "On My Mac" mailboxes, they no longer exist on the server (though they can be moved back there if desired). Which means that I'm fine if I migrate my hosting to a new server, and redownload them, because the mail in "On My Mac" will be untouched. The only thing I don't know about is the "Sent" mail, but I believe those also exist on the server, and therefore if I migrate them then the link relationships are maintained (no idea about the mail that is "On My Mac" that has links to "Sent" mail in the server, but I guess that isn't so important).
As for keeping a completely syncronizable Mail application - the only way it appears I'd be able to do that is to forgo "On My Mac" entirely, and keep *all* mail on the server. If I want to move mail into different folders, those folders would have to be Server folders created for that account, and hosted by that hosting company. This actually doesn't seem like such a bad move, especially as we get further and further away from having only one device that we use to process Mail.
Are there any disadvantages to *not* using the local "On My Mac" folders? Are there any major advantages to using them?

View Gridlines - Table tool is blue dotted, need to change it to grey

We are migrating our application in such a way that the documents are getting printed in word 2007/word 2010. Earlier our application used word 2003 to print the document.
Earlier...
we used a template which holds tables, we have enable the gridlines of the tables to be visible (the gridlines were grey solid lines)
Now..
When we migrated to print the docs in word 2007/word 2010 the same table gridlines appears to be blue dotted lines. Is there any way to change the appearance of this property as it is in word 2003 ?
The name of the property in word 2007/10 is "View Gridlines".

Hello,
Did you set the table borders to "None" and then enable the "View Gridlines"? If so, I think it's the default behavior of Word 2007/Word 2010. The gridlines is blue dotted lines in Word 2007/Word 2010 by default and we haven't found
a way to change this.
Thanks,
Steve Fan

What does the blue dot under some apps mean

what does the blue dot under some apps on the ipad air 2 mean. There are not dots under all the apps.

They are indeed recently updated apps that have not been used since they were updated. As soon as you launch the app after updating, the blue dot will disappear.

How can I get the blue dot back that id's mail as unread?

How can I get the blue dot back that id's unread mail?

Yes We have an iMac with the same account. They have both worked fine for the year that we have owned an iPad. I think I have solved the problem. I went into mail settings and turned off push. Then I reset the iPad. Upon reopening, I turned push on again. At least for the last 15 minutes, I have a blue dot bt new mail. Many thanks for taking the time to help me, Matthew.

Blue dot instead of the 3G symbol?

I noticed that 3g symbol was replaced by a color blue dot. What is that? Is that normal? Please advice experts

3G indicates a 3G connection, E indicates an EDGE connection, and a blue dot or a blue circle indicates a GPRS connection.

I had a year long CC membership that expired at the beginning of the October.
After realizing that, I attempted to start a free trial of photoshop to work on a project. My Adobe account states that i'm on a trial, but my (Mac) dashboard CC app won't allow me to start the program. I have reinstalled both Creative Cloud and Photoshop CC but still get this message.
