What does the symbol next the printer name mean?

this symbol comes up when I put my printer on Wireless it is a wireless printer. how do i set it up so i can use it wirelessly does that symbol mean something?

See if this works - make sure MAC Address Filtering isn't enabled on the router that can prevent devices joining a network.
I'm assuming the printer has a control panel and neither the router or the printer support WPS Pairing (if they do, post back 'cos that can make it very easy). You'll need to know the wifi encryption method your router is set to and your wifi password.
This may not be the exact sequence as the menus on printers vary from make to make but the process seems to be similar across brands.
Press the 'menu' button on the printer and select 'network', select 'wlan' and it should offer a setup wizard' or similar. From there is should display your network, select it, encryption type, select it. You'll then need to input your password, normally by using the up/down and left/right arrows. OK it when done and voila (hopefully) you'll be connected. Then on the Mac in System Preferences>Print & Scan you should be able to add the printer.
Sometimes, but not always, I've found that I've had to connect the printer via usb cable during the process of setting up. Then once connect via wifi unplugged it.

    what does the exclamtion point mean next to a song that is unchecked?

    If you hover over the exclamation mark (or you may need to click on it, I can't remeber), it should tell you. Usually, it means that the original file (for that song) cannot be found, either because it has been moved, renamed or deleted.

  • What does the red bubble mean that is near the phone symbol and moves over to the vm symbol when phone is turned on

    What does the red bubble mean that appears near the phone symbol then moves over temporarly to the VM symbol, when first turning the phone on.  It goes away with a few seconds

    It means you have no signal, or if on the VM icon, it means to visual voicemail.  Sounds like you're just getting it temporarily until the phone establishes a signal.

  • I was playing with my ipad settings (it's an older model) and noted in the advanced settings of Safari there was a place to view website databases.  When I clicked on this I saw websites.  How do these get there and what does the space amount mean?

    I was playing with my ipad settings and noted in he advanced settings of Safari there was a place to view "website databases".  When I selected this I saw a multitude of websites.
    Can anyone tell me how these get there?  Can a website be posted even if it was never went to?  What does the space amount mean?  For example, 1.5 kb...is this quite a bit?  Would it indicate someone has gone to a site multiple times?
    I share my ipad with my teenage daughter and I'm trying to find out if she's lying to me.  Obviously she's swearing that she has "no idea" how these got there and I'm trying to keep her safe (she's only 14).
    Thanks everyone.

    Think of your PC and the 'temporary internet folder' where it keeps cached copies of web pages or elements off a web page for 'quicker display the next time you visit'. That's pretty much what that folder is. 1.5K is tiny. Probably just a basic page with some text on it. (you might be confusing 1.5K with 1.5 megabyte....megabyte is large...it's roughly 1000 kilobytes, so the 1.5K is a tiny file)
    As far as I know, the only way info gets into that folder is if the browser has been to that site.
    if you have a concern there are browsers out there, McGruff is one i've seen recommended, that allow some degree of parental control and supervision. That or you could passcode lock the iPad or enable the restrictions to turn off some parts of the device to have some control.

  • What does the dotted circle mean?

    When connecting itouch to itunes, what does the dotted circle mean next to a song? Thanks for the help.

    Hi pfn,
    From an earlier post on this topic - this may work for you - it's worth a try:
    First go to the 'On This iPad/iPod/iPhone' section and note all the tracks that have dotted circles.
    In the 'Music' section, un-check/de-select all the tunes noted 
    Apply and sync the changes. 
    Once that completes re-check/re-select the same tunes just un-checked/de-selected in the 'Music' section.
    Apply and sync the changes again
    Go back into the 'On This iPad/iPod/iPhone' section
    Hopefully all the dotted circles will be gone and all the tracks can be played
    See if this helps!

  • What does the word Factory mean in "naming factory "

    What does the word Factory mean in "naming factory" in JNDI tech?

    A Factory class is a class that produces an instance of an object. For example, a ParserFactory class will have a method that returns a Parser. Usually this Factory class is looking at something in the environment to decide which object to return. "Factory" is just one of many "Design Patterns" that you will encounter in the programming world. Several (many?) books have been written about design patterns.

  • 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

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and all open tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).
