What is the white dot on my ipod screen? i can't get rid of it even when using apps?
If I click on the dot it brings up a translucent screen with other options: Favourites (star) Home (home button) Device (picture of an iphone) and the circle (gestures). No matter what I do I cannot get rid of this icon and it is driving me mental!

Just did a further search and found that my question was alreaxdy answered by Jandt - thank you!
The white dot is the button that brings up AssistiveTouch which allows you to use your iPod if you have difficulty touching the screen.
To turn this function off, go to Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch > OFF.

I also tried to manually manage the music files and removed them all from my ipod. But the file still remains. It only is appearing on my ipod touch, it does not show in itunes. And when I add the file that shows in itunes, it shows up twice. One is normal and the other has that stop button icon next to it. Please help.
You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer. -
I just bought a new iPod and I have it set up the same as my old iPod but I can't get notifications on the lock screen like I did on my old iPod. What can I do to fix this?
Hi.
What is the exact notification you are waiting? This could be possible that the device has already been opened once. Don't you think? -
Every ten minutes a popup on my 4s appears saying "unable to download" with the option of "done" or "retry". I can't get rid of it and I can't find out what it's trying to do! theres noting pending on the App Store or iTunes. Nothing failed. I've reset my settings. Logged out and back into itunes. It's really annoying as rinsing my data!
After talking to Apple for 3 hours I figured it out myself.
Tre here was a singular failed song on iTunes on the computer that was trying to download and messing everything up. Maybe if you use iTunes on the computer and have a little mooch you'll find the same thing. I think it was hidden in the purchased part of it -
What is the best Computer for HD video editing where can I get it under $3000-5000? Thank you!
What is the best Computer for HD video editing where can I get it under $3000- $5000.00?
The wording of your question suggests you may be new to video editing, in which case the types of projects you will be doing may not be the most complex.
Please accept my apology if that assumption is incorrect.
The cheapest computer available will edit 1080p video perfectly well but if you must have the "best" you will be looking at nothing less than a MacPro.
Too many people get hung up about the equipment they use and blame it for any inadequacies . . . when the most important component is the operator. -
I am constantly getting a pop up box to sign into imessage or facetime and can't get rid of it even after entering password. What can I do?
Launch Safari with the Shift key held down. If that doesn’t work, disconnect the computer from the Internet.

I have new ipod touch which shows mail messages, but when I punch to access, all I get are mail providers. How can I get rid of mail providers and see my messages since the correct mail providers are set up already?
I do not know what you mean by "punc to see all mail provider".
And also what does "I can't get rid of the providers to see my e-mails".
Maybe this will help

After downloading newest firefox an option showed up: do you want one on these new skins to top your opening page? I opted for one of them and now can't get rid of it. I prefer the old . What's there now looks like a background for several toolbars. Contrast is bad.
You can set Firefox back to using the default theme. Open the add-ons manager (in the tools menu select Add-ons), in the add-ons manager go to the Themes panel. Click on the Default theme in the list of themes then click on the "Use Theme" button.
For more details see using themes with Firefox. -
When opening the Calendar app, I am greeted with a box that says "This calendar can not be refreshed," and after clicking ok there is another box saying "The server responded with an error." How do I get rid of this. The calendar functions all right, but just have to close both of those boxes after doing any action in the calendar app.
Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved. Back up all databefore making any changes.
Step 1
From the Calendar menu bar, select
Calendar ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts
Choose the affected account from the list on the left and uncheck the box marked
Enable this account
Then check the box again. Test.
Step 2
Make a note of the account settings, then delete the account and add it back with the same settings.
Step 3
If you can't add the account, the settings may be invalid. Verify them. How you do that depends on what kind of account it is. If it's a Google calendar and you've activated 2-step verification, you need to generate an application-specific password in your Google account and enter it in place of your old password.
Step 4
Quit Calendar. Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Calendars/Calendar Cache
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a file named "Calendar Cache" selected.
Move the selected file to the Trash. There may be one or two other files in the same folder with names that begin in "Calendar Cache". If so, delete those files too.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -
Maps 2. What are the white dots meant to be ?
I've noticed that in Maps 2 (sure they are not there in Maps 1) that some roads (seemingly at random) have little white squares / dots running along them.
I say seemingly at random as I cannot fathom any logic as to which roads they appear on. They are constantly on the same roads... but these roads can be either major roads, little lanes and very very narrow side streets.
Sometimes they are only on part of a road and then stop... onlt to appear further along the road.
No documentation I can find explains what they mean.
Its not an end of the world issue, but its driving me crazy (pun not intended) as to what they represent.
They appear on the maps even when no navigation is set, so not route maps or markers for walking directions.
Anyone know the answer ?
A virtual beer for anyone that does ;-)
Solved!
Go to Solution.No. The idea is that if you can drive on it, you can walk on it (excluding highways). But not all roads you can walk on can you also drive on.
What happened to me is that when I had old (v1) maps on my N95 and I updated the Maps to v2, my maps got corrupted, and they would show only half a street, and walk/drive info was all wrong.
I reset my N95 and uploaded the maps application and the maps and it worked fine ever since.
Try deleting all the maps with the MapLoader and if that doesn't help reinstall the Maps application. If that doesn't help, try resetting the device (*#7370#). You will lose all unsaved data, so backup your phone memory to the memory card in the Memory Card options -> Make a backup of phone memory. After reset, retrieve your phone data with the same option. -
What's the 'other' part in my storage and how do I get rid of it?
A big part of the storage of my iPod Touch 4th Generation is occupied with 'other', it's about 7 GB. What is this and how do I get rid of it?
What is the Other on my iPhone and How to Remove It
An "other" that large usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files.
First try:
"First you go settings/general/usage/music/then left swipe over music and press delete and you would think it deletes your music but it doesn't instead it deletes your other but make sure your ipod is connected to a computer while doing this"
as recommended by:
How do I get rid of "other" storage: Apple Support Communities
Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

Replace the screen yourself if you are up to it

When I click bookmarks in the Menu Bar, it leaves an image or "print" of the bookmark window on my desktop. It does not go away after exiting Firefox. The only way I can remove this image from my desktop is to restart my computer. It is becoming a bit annoying. I should mention that this problem does not occur when using the bookmarks icon in the Navigation Bar which I never use because I prefer the other. This has been happening in Firefox 4 to 7, but never in earlier versions.
There is probably a glitch in Firefox's graphics hardware acceleration feature, which was introduced in Firefox 4. To turn that feature off:
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the General mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
This change should take effect after you restart Firefox.
If you miss (or think you will miss) the hardware acceleration feature, you could try updating the drivers for your graphics card to see whether that solves the glitch. -
On my firefox start up screen, I get the message that I am not running the latest. It asks that I upgrade now. However, under "about firefox," I am running 9.01, the latest version. I'd like to know why I'm getting this message and how I can get rid of it.
Thank you.Hi jerzyguitar,
You may see that message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. That page is no longer being maintained by Google.
You should try changing your home page to:
about:home
If you don't know how to change the home page, you should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]].
Hopefully this helps -
