What is icon in upper right of ipod

This icon just appeared. it is a lock with a circled arrow around it. Im new to this device. Can anyone tell me what it means?

From your iPod's User Guide:
Shows that the iPod touch screen is locked in portrait
orientation. See “Viewing in Portrait or Landscape
Orientation” on page 26.

Audio icon in upper right menu disappears and there is no sound Went to Apple preferences which says there is no output device. I can't figure out what to do. Help!

There is a sound icon in the upper right menu which disappears and reappears. When it disappears there is no sound. Went to Apple preferences for sound preferences. When the sound icon is off, this page is not active. Says "mute" is activated and that there is no output device. Cannot fix this problem. How do I retrieve the sound icon and get sound back?

Hi Ronnie, anything in particular going on when this happens?
Long shot, but...
Next time it happens... Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there, some things will change it for their own use, then not set it back

What is this Icon? (Upper Right Finder Menu Bar)

There is an icon on the upper right of the Finder menu that is all gray and is a thin vertical line with two equal sized triangles lined up on it on the right side, and a squiggly line going across the center of the line horizontally.
I clicked on it and it caused my cursor to become a multicolored wheel while in the Finder toolbar, and I'm going to have to log out to get it to stop. It doesn't appear in the Force Quit list (unless it's Finder, System Profiler, which I don't think it is).
Sorry for the dumb question.
Wish we could paste pics in here; I made a Grab shot of it....

I really have no idea which icon you're describing but...
SystemUIServer is background process but one of the apps it specifically controls the right hand side of the Menu bar, where the Menu Extras are and should return your icons to default.
Go toUsers/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.systemuiserver.0017f2c28128.plist and delete these files, Then, log out and back in.
EDIT: You can post pics... with the HTML Code. Try http://photobucket.com/

On my email page, I've lost the 3-line menu icon in upper right -- how can I get it back?

I inadvertently lost the little 3-line menu icon in the upper right corner of my email page. What can I do to get it back? I've tried pressing Alt and also Ctrl+Alt, as some instructions suggest, and nothing happens.

You probably have disabled the Mail Toolbar. Press F10 and choose View -> Toolbars and check Mail Toolbar.

Pad - LOCK icon in Upper Right Corner of Screen - How did it get there??

When I start my Mac (G5-10.4.11) for the first time I have an icon of a pad-lock in the upper right hand corner of my screen and appears in the 'closed or locked' position. I don't know how it got there. I think it has something to do with 'Keychain' but not sure. When I open Entourage (2008) to check my email for the first time following a boot sequence, Entourage asks me for a keychain password and after entering the password, the pad-lock icon in the upper right corner now indicates an 'open' or unlocked condition. I don't have to do this again as long as my computer stays on. I've tried changing the access setting in Keychain to 'ignore' Entourage and Keychain but it still asks me for a keychain password following a re-boot. What did I do to get the pad-lock icon there in the first place? And, how can I turn OFF that 'pad-lock' and not appear on my startup screen? I have another hard drive in my computer that I boot from occasionally and the "pad-lock' icon does not appear on my startup screen and I can check Entourage without entering any keychain password. I really don't need password protection on my home computer, it's very annoying every time I check my Entourage email.
Thanks,
Bill

Check "Keep login keychain unlocked" in the "First Aid" tab of Keychain Access (Utilities folder).
In the "General" tab, uncheck "Show Status in Menu Bar".

Icon in upper right of screen

There is an icon next to my battery meter in the upper right hand of the screen. It appears to be a telephone receiver above some phone buttons.
What is it?
Also...should I have data roaming enabled. I live in and edge area with 3g very close and was told that might help switch to 3g more. The only time data roaming should be off is if you are out of the country. Is this right?

I have 4 rows of identical addon icons in upper right of screen and am unable to correct.

I downloaded the latest Firefox system on 4-29-14. Everything seems to be functioning okay except in the upper right of my screen I have a block of add on icons that I can't adjust. There are 4 identical rows of icons in color and 1 row which is grayed out. No matter what I do to try to fix this, nothing happens.

Sounds like you have an incompatible add-on.

Why is hard drive icon in upper right corner?

hello. i have snow leopard on my macbook pro so i'm not very familiar with lion, however my 13 year old daughter has a macbook pro with lion and i'm the admin. i just noticed the macintosh hard drive icon in the upper right corner of her screen. is this normal in lion? if not, how can i get it out of there? thanks for any and all help.

Yes, that's the normal location for the disk icon(s). They start at the top with the startup drive. Other drives mount below it.
If you don't want drive icons to appear then open Finder preferences, click on the General icon in the toolbar. Uncheck the boxes for items you don't want displayed on the Desktop. Then click on the Sidebar icon in the toolbar and similarly check/uncheck items you want displayed in the sidebar.

Menu Bar Application Icons Frozen Upper Right Side of Screen

After installing Snow, the right side of the menu bar is frozen. If I move the mouse to the right side, I get the spinning wheel of death. I can use my computer but I cannot use any program or option associated with an icon to the right side of the menu bar. Is there a bug? Thanks

Well, I didn't realise I had that problem until you pointed it out! And when trying to send a mailshot I found my address book was blank.
I used the solution someone posted on the thread linked to above...
Deleted USER>Library>Application Support>SyncServices folder (when I say 'deleted' I mean moved to the desktop until I was sure I wasn't breaking anything!).
I then deleted USER>Library>Application Support>AddressBook
Rebooted. Then went to System Preferences and turned on Mobile Me syncing (the pane now opens fine). This was seen as a first sync and I chose to bring all Mobile Me contacts (and everything else) back onto my machine.
Seems to be working all OK now.
Let's hope that's my last Leopard problem.... (speaking of which, I also lost all my custom Mail Stationery - not for incompatibility reasons it seems as I was able to bring them all forward in Time Machine).
I then rebooted - opened up System Preferences and turned on (for the first time as far

All of the icons are covered in the manual:

What does the lock icon on the iPod Touch in the upper right corner mean?

Wbat does the lock icon in the upper right corner of the iPod Touch mean?
How is it used?

That means your iPod is locked, or will not rotate the screen when you rotate your iDevice. To turn it off, you double-tap the home button, swipe to the right and you'll see the same icon, but bigger. Tap that.
That's all! Simple as 123!

ICal icon on my Mac Book Air displays a circled number at the upper right corner as does Mail for new emails - how do I find out what item(s) that number is referring to? And why does it show up on the Mac Book Air and not my 4S iPhone?

A circled number appears in the upper right corner of the iCal icon on my Mac Book Air. What does it mean? How do I resolve it? Why doesn't it appear on my 4S iPhone via the iCloud?

Glenn,
That number means that you have an event invitation. Use iCal>View>Show Notifications to choose what to do with the notification. Since OS X 10.7.2 is required for iCloud integration, I am not surprised that there are anomalies between the iPhone and the MacBook Pro.
