Weird Icon Appearing Have Boot
Hey everyone,
I've been having a weird icon appear on my desktop every time I boot up my computer.
Here's the icon:

Not sure where it came from or what it means. I've searched online to see if anyone else has had this problem, but haven't seen anything. I'm not sure if it could be some kind of virus?
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!

Thanks for the help everyone. Taken care of.
Apparently I considered doing Boot Camp and made a hard disk for it, but stopped in the middle and decided not to.
Also just realized I butchered my title to the thread.

Weird icons appear when Opening Documents in Document Library
Experiencing intermittent issue when opening a document in a certain document library.
These weird icons appear.
Artificial intelligence can never beat natural stupidity.That's a sprite file. It's downloaded once for a page and then CSS is used to pick a part of that image. The full display of that image is usually caused by a timeout when downloading the CSS file. If you refresh the page, does it display correctly?
Does the page have any custom JavaScript or custom CSS?
Here's some info on sprite files:

Weird icon appearing in my dock
Have posted this in the classic forum but not got an answer so am bringing it here.
Something called"HP Inkjet Engine" has suddenly started appearing in my dock at start up of Classic. It is a printer icon with a round white circle and an "I" on it. I can't find startup items to get rid of it, can someone please remind me?
Some info:
It is not in systemprefs/accounts/me/startup items.
The only way I get rid of it is to do a force quit of it.
There seems to be something funny going on with Quark. The only time I launch classic is for quark. Today I just tried to launch classic on it's own and once it had launched it automatically started up quark too and tried to open a document I Iast opened a few months ago, and it quite often does this.
So, how can I get rid of this pesky apparition in my dock?
Thanks!Kathykate,
Have you tried looking @ HD/9 System Folder/Startup Items. Not sure this is what is making the HP Injet Engine open upon Classic startup but worth a look if you have not already.
I don't use any OS 9 startup items when Classic opens so I'm not sure this is where they would be but worth a look......
Best,

As mentioned in the header to this question, the toolbar icon symbols have disappeared from apps such as mail and safari and from finder windows - just grey boxes appearing without the sumbols that are usually there. Adobe apps are OK as are some others have deactivated any haxies etc, have repaired permissions reset prarmeter RAM
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -
Hi
I am experiencing wireless connection problem on 4s after ios 8.1 upgrade. The wireless icon appears showing that it's connected but webpages do not load. I have checked my internet connection with other devices and seems to be alright. what to do?
I have tried reseting the network settings and forgetting my wireless connection and re-connecting to it. I even backed up my phone on itunes and restored it, factory reseted it. Nothing seems to work.
Also after my upgrade to ios 8.1 my personal hotspot option under cellular data has disappeared.
Would you please help me out? I would really appreciate it.Hi..
Restart your router then restart the iPhone to test.
If that doesn't help, try this support article > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections -

I have recently purchased some apps from the app store and after downloading them, the icon that appears in the dock changes to a different icon. It is now the same icon appearing on all newly downloaded apps. Does anyone know what is happening here? Even updating an older game app resulted in the original game icon changing to the new identical icon that all new apps are appearing with. This new icon is like a page with a ruler, pencil and paintbrush. Any tips on how to stop this or how to revert to the icon as it appears on the app store would be appreciated.

Sorting out my CDs. Put one in and no response - no icons appeared on desktop, nothing showing on iTunes. Tried to eject and absolutely no response - can't even hear any attempt to eject. I've tried a few different things and no response or the programme I'm using jams up. Not a huge computer buff so I need things explained really simply - only had my Macbook Pro for a year and still not completely tuned into Apple system - would have know what to do on my old Windows!
You can use a key combination to force removable media to eject at startup. Visit Startup key combinations for Mac - Apple Support and try the options listed in the bottom row.

If it's not a free item then you should get the 'add to wish list' icon via the share button - is it a free or paid-for item that you are looking at ?

i have a macbook pro and use MS Office 2011. In Outlook 2011, i have noticed a strange phenomenon. In some messages, although the attachment icon appears indicating presence of attachments, i am unable to actually see or access the attachments.
vivebk67,
FYI, I have the same issue. I converted from MS Office 2010 to Mac Office 2011 by importing .pst files several months ago and I have noticed that many emails, which I originally received in MS 2010 but coverted to Mac 2011, show the paperclip as if there is an attachment. But when I open the email, the attachment is not there.
At this point I cannot find any pattern as to why some converted emails retained their attachment and other emails appear to have retained their attachment but the attachment is not visible.
I can confirm that there actually is an attachment by opening up MS Office 2010, but that is a huge pain becasue I have to open Parallels to do that. I have no issues with any attachments received in Mac Office 2011.
I spent an hour opening up a ticket with MS, sent them .pst files with examples and the guy was able to confirm that he could open the attachment in MS, but not Mac. BUT, of course, I was told that I would not be apprised of any ticket updates and that the only way I would know if the issues was fixed was when I was finally able to view attachments that I was not able to view previously.

Hi, I have trouble loading my iPhone 5 photos into Aperture. The iPhone icon appears in the import window, but the images won't show up in the loading window
The iPhone icon appears in the import window, but the images won't show up in the loading window
Do your images show, if you disable the option "Do not import duplicates"? If yes, then check, if the images have already been imported, eg. using Photo Stream, if you are using Aperture 3.3 or later.

I have installed Angry Birds Seasons and the Icon appears but when I select the game it starts to open but then goes back to the home screen. What to do???
Try closing the app completely and then see if it works when you re-open it : from the home screen double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Angry Bird Seasons app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
A third option if neither work is to delete the app and then re-download it
