What does "Countdown" timer logo mean when shown against a mailbox?

In Mail, I see a "Countdown" timer logo showing faintly against mailboxes in the "On my Mac" partition and when it does, I cannot move mail messages from my inbox to the folder that has that logo. I can't see any description of this - is it a background task that is being done on my mailbox?

Do you retain very large numbers of messages in a single Mailbox? What percentage of free disk space do you have on your Mac?

  • What does the apple sign mean when sometimes it shows ?

    What does the apple logo mean when sometimes i turn it on it just pops up and goes back to normal??

    Ayip,
    The Apple logo appearing on your iPod nano is your nano's start-up icon. Normally, when you turn off your iPod nano, you are really putting it into a deep or semi-deep sleep, where it is ready to turn on at the push of a button and resume where you left off in your Now Playing list.
    If, however, you leave your iPod in a sleep mode for some time , it will shut down. To turn it on again, you'll need to hit the center button (deep and semi-deep will wake up with any button press). When turning the iPod on from a shut down state, it will display the Apple logo while loading your music iPod software.
    Hope this helps!
    Sincerely,
    -FD

    Try the following to fix:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    yes - or text that does not fit in a text box
    What does the mean?
    This symbol will appear in iPhoto or Aperture to warn you that you have chosen an image that has low-resolution, or that the custom text you have entered in a book, card or calendar does not fit in the space allotted.
    what is the minimum resolution for a calendar in iphoto?

  • HELP HELP!!!! DESPERATE! What does "Timeout, Timer Inactive" mean?

    Please help. I am using a M-Audio Uno 1x1 MIDI Interface and it has worked great. Then, I turned on Logic yesterday and it at first spent a long time cheking for MIDI Drivers, unusual, and finally displayed the message "Timer Inactive- check to see if other applications are running Timer or MIDI". I obviously wasn't running any other applications. THEN, a message pops up and says:
    "Instrument "M-Audio 1x1" sends to a MIDI port named "Port 1" of MIDI interface "USB MIDI 1x1" which no longers exists. Please check if all MIDI interfaces are connected and switched on; otherwise adjust the instrument's out port setting."
    Well, I updated the drivers. That didn't work. I THEN went out and bought a NEW USB MIDI 1x1 Interface, exact same model. (Ironically the old one was NOT showing up on the USB port in the System Profiler when the problem started and the new one DOES now, so buying a new one helps I guess but doesn't solve the problem. Am I to assume these are somehow related?) The new one doesn't fix the problem. When I go into "Audio MIDI Setup", sometimes the Setup application crashes when I choose "MIDI Setup" and other times, when MIDI Setup comes up, it will not led me add a new device and simply does not see the MIDI Interface even though the System Profiler does.
    WHAT IS GOING ON?!?!?! I am in desperate need of help- PLEASE!!!!!

    OK, first of all, all is not lost!
    The "Timer Inactive" message means that Logic couldn't communicate with your MIDI interface. (I guess you kinda figured this one out the hard way...)
    The "Instrument... no longer exists" is another symptom of the exact same thing. This error won't show up unless:
    a) your interface is switched off (or disconnected)
    =OR=
    b) Logic (and/or AudioMIDI Setup) can't detect your interface
    OK, here's what you do...
    This is Part #1
    1) Uninstall the MIDI drivers
    2) Disconnect the MIDI interface from your computer and re-boot
    3) Open AMS (AudioMIDI Setup) and go to the MIDI page. If you see an interface icon, it should be grayed out. There's also a chance you will so no icon for an interface.
    4) If your interface has a power switch, turn it off.
    5) Plug your interface directly into one of your computer's USB ports. Do not use a hub.
    (If it has a power switch, turn it on now)
    6) Does the interface show up now?
    Post with your results and then I'll take you to part #2.
