Weird icon on my applications bar

I have this weird icon on my applications bar at the bottom of my computer screen. It sits in the background and I can't highlight it. It looks like the letter M inside a circle or maybe two adjacent arrows pointing up. Underneath the circle is a yellow arrow pointing downward. What does this mean?

Hi Nomvuyo, and Welcome to "Discussions"!
"...my applications bar at the bottom of my computer screen..."
I'm guessing that you mean the Dock.
Are you sure that the icon is in the Dock, and not behind it?
From the Blue Apple menu, select Dock > Turn Hiding On. Or use Command + Option + D keys.
If the icon is now visible, it was behind the Dock, and you can now move it.
If it is really in the Dock, you should be able to eliminate it by navigating to
HD > Users > Your Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.dock.plist : Move this file to the Trash.
Restart the computer.
You will now have a Default Dock, and will have to put back any extra icons that you may have placed there.
Good Luck!

Xterm has a weird icon after update

Hi,
I updated today, and afterwards I now have a terminal window with a weird icon.
First I thought this must be an error, maybe it is a graphics glitch... But I guess it is just an ugly icon.
Is it suppose to be a computer screen with a keyboard? It is kind of annoying to stare at all day since it looks like something a 3 year old would draw.

There are two changes involved: one was a modification to let xterm hint the window decoration (which appears to be what you're showing).
That's done now via a resource setting which wasn't really used (iconName), and defaults to a small version of the desktop icon.
The other change allows configuring the mini-icon (which isn't the default simply because it looks different...).
That's done at build-time using --with-icon-name=mini.xterm
As a quick-fix you "should" be able to set iconName (look in /usr/share/pixmaps for some nicer .xpm file)
The change using iconName is noted in the next line of the changelog:
extend iconName resource to search for icon named according to resource value and use that if found. If not found, use compiled-in pixmap. Both set the WM_ICON_NAME property which is used by various window managers, usually for window decoration.

There is a 3 inch section of the window that will not recognize the mouse. It will not let you click on the icons or screen in any way in this section under the address bar. It is only in firefox where this is a problem

There is a 3 inch section of the window that will not respond or recognize the mouse. It will not let you click on the icons or screen in any way. This is the only program we are experiencing this problem with.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Try closing the Camera app:

2. Hold down the Camera app for a second or two until you see the minus sign
3. Tap the minus sign to close app

How do I retore app icons to screen after IO6 update? They now appear only in App store list

Go to iTunes, click on Apps in the left window, to bring up your app library. Then click on "check for updates" in the right window, bottom corner. If there are any updates available, you'll be notified of the number and you'll have to choose the apps you want to update in the next screen shown, or update them all at once after filling in your password.
You can also click on one app in the library and choose "get info" to see the actual version saved in your library.

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?

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:
http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa200/realmvenompics/Picture1-5.png
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 Icon

I have a weird icon that appears when I make a phone call. It appears in the upper right corner next to the volume. It is a rectanular box with stars going diagnoly thru it black in the top section and blue in the bottom. This does not appear if I am using my bluetooth. I get it both on incoming and outgoing calls. What is this weird thing???
Solved!

Hi and welcome to the forums!
That is for the Weird Application on your phone (sorry couldn't resist)
I believe that indicator is to tell you that your earpiece on the device is active. When you switch to speakerphone (alt+$), is disappears and the speakerphone icon appears in the upper left hand corner.
Hope this info helps.
Please resolve the post using the green option under the kudo's star, Place the green check in the post that answered your question,
Thanks

How do I move icons between screens?

Friends,
I have an ipad2 and an iphone. On the iphone, I can easily drag icons between screens by press and holding, then dragging the icon to the side -- the adjacent screen the appears and I can drag the icon to that screen. When I try the same thing on my ipad2, the adjacent screen does not appear. I'm able to move the icons when connected to itunes, but that's a pain.
What am I missing?
Thanks!
Steve

All you are missing is patience. Move the icon to the edge of the screen and hold it about halfway over to the next screen for a second or two. Then suddenly the app will jump to the next screen.

Weird icon next to battery icon

this weird icon popped up on my phone yesterday and have no idea what it means. it is a lock with a circular arrow around it?

You you have rotation lock enabled. A rotation lock icon will appear in the status bar next to the battery charge icon when rotation lock is enabled. This looks like a circular arrow around a padlock. If so:
1. Double click the home button to bring up the multitasking bar.
2. Swipe right until the last set of icons is displayed in the multitasking bar (these will include play/pause and skip buttons for iPod or Pandora).
3. The furthest left icon looks like a circular arrow - touch this icon to enable or disable rotation lock on the iPhone.

4th Generation iPod: camera stopped working; I touch the icon, the screen goes blank navy blue. What do I do?

Have you tried closing the Camera app completely and seeing if it works when you re-open the app ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Camera 'open' on-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 Camera 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 equivalent of a reboot.
