What does it mean when there is an I tunes symbol on the screen with a charging cable underneath that?

Turn on the computer. Take the charging cable and connect one end to the bottom of the Touch and the other to a USB on your computer (back of the computer if this is a desktop computer). iTunes should open automatically and will probably give you a message it has detected an iPod in Recovery mode. Follow the onscreen steps from there and Restore it from any backup on the computer.

    What does it mean when there is one long beep?

    See this article.  By the way, the reason no one responded is because Mac OS X 10.3 and 10.8 are mutually exclusive, and can't run on the same machine.

  • What does it mean when there is a flashing file folder with a question mark when trying to start computer?

    When I try to start my computer a flashing file folder with a question mark is on the screen. I can't open anything up. What does this mean?

    There are four general causes of this issue:
    1. The computer's PRAM no longer contains a valid startup disk setting when there aren't any problems with the disk itself. This can be checked for by pressing the Option key and seeing if the drive appears.
    2. The internal drive's directory structure has become damaged. This requires usage of an alternate bootable system to perform the repair.
    3. Critical system files have been deleted. This requires usage of an alternate bootable system to reinstall them.
    4. The internal drive has died or become unplugged. This is the most likely case if the computer took a sharp impact or there are unusual sounds coming from its location.

  • HT4199 What does it mean when I click on my wifi name and the bars come up but the network keeps thinking and the ipad says safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet. ?

    What does it mean when I click on my wifi name and it show I'm on my wifi, but the network keeps thinking and the ipad says, Safari cannot open this page because it is not connected to the internet. ?

    When you click on the WiFi network name, have you also provided the password for accessing the network?  You should get a dialogue box asking you for the security information the first time you connect.
    If you are not able to connect, you might want to go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings.
    Then go back to Settings > WiFi and select your network name again and make sure the security information is now entered correctly.
    If you still cannot connect, power down the router, wait a few minutes, power up the router, with the iPad powered down the whole time, and after the router has had several minutes to stabilize power up the iPad.  See if it now connects correctly.

  • What does it mean when there is a red slash through an app that is listed with my apps?

    When I go to my computer and to the App Store I have noticed there is a big red slash mark on some of my apps.  What does this mean? 

    It usually means that you may have upgraded the version of OS X to a version with which these apps are incompatible.

  • HT203261 What does it mean when I try to type an emoji and the it takes me straight home?

    When I try to type an emoji it just takes me straight home and won't let me use my emojis

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Restore from your back up is the fast and best solution. If that's not possible then: What version of iphoto? How to progress from here depends on that.

  • What does it mean when there isn't enough room to run a program?

    My desktop tends to go blank and when I try to open programs such as Excel or Word a message comes up saying there isn't enough memory to run. Anyone know what could fix this? Also I opened iPhoto and it asked if i wanted to open iPhoto or iPhoto, not knowing the difference, I picked the first one and almost all of my photos were gone.

    there are a couple of ways to fix this.
    1) run less applications at one time, meaning make sure they are truly closed and not just off.
    2) get a ram upgrade. this can be done by yourself or by taking it to an apple store.

    Here's instructions on replacing the hard drive http://creativemac.digitalmedianet.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=45088
    To transfer your current hard drive I like the free application Carbon Copy Cloner. It makes a bootable copy of everything on your hard drive http://www.bombich.com/index.html You'll need a cheap SATA external hard drive case. Put the new drive in the case, partition and format it, and clone your old drive to the new one. Then replace your old hard drive with the new one.

  • What does it mean when there's a _ at the beginning of a username?

    Example: _softwareupdate
    Thanks.

    OS X started using _ on system groups a few releases back; that convention started with 10.5.
    I'd start your own thread for the groups question.  As for any group limit, haven't seen that one with OS X; if you're hitting some limit with groups or ACLs or a tool you're using, you'll want to post up some details of the version (10.8?), the volume structure used the output of the id command and the ls -ale@ for the ACL. 
    The local root account has twenty groups, so I'm not sure what you're seeing with that limit.
    Alternatively, you can log a bug directly with Apple asking for the limit to be increased.

  • HT1498 What does it mean when there is a movie that has "available for rent" on a date that has passed already, but you still are not able to rent it?

    Really want to rent a movie through my Apple TV and it says "available for rent 4/8," but it is 4/25 and it still isnt available. Just curious. 

    The studio hasn't supplied it or given the rights for iTunes to rent yet. If you want an official answer contact iTunes.

  • What does it mean when I get a message which says: To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action (such as search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier?

    This error message comes up when I am trying to get a log in box to come up on a particular secure website. Sometimes the log in box does come up, but when I go to log in nothing happens.

    You get an alert about resending POST data if you go back to a page or refresh a page that was previously requested from the server by submitting form data via a (hidden) POST form.<br />
    Firefox can only make sure to get the same page by resending that POST form.<br />
    Firefox doesn't know what that form data means, so Firefox asks for confirmation before resending that form data as such an action can cause you to repeat an action and buy another item or post a message another time.<br />
    A way to prevent that pop-up is not to use the Back button, but to open links from a page that was requested from a server by sending a POST form in a new tab (window) with a middle-click or a Ctrl + left-click.<br />
    Then you can close that tab or window to go back.<br />
