Hi,
Here is a link to the Notebook Tour for your notebook. It shows what all components (buttons, switches outputs and inputs) on your laptop are for. 
This should answer your question beyond a doubt.

  • What does this button on my keyboard do?

    There is a button on my computer keyboard; at the top-left of the numeric keypad, just below the reduce-volume button; it's like a parallelogram with a big cross (X) through it. - What does this button do? - I can't seem to find a use for it.
    Also, while we're talking buttons, the buttons above the arrow keys seem to correspond to Home, End, Page Up, and Page Down on PC's, but they seem (annoyingly) to perform slightly different functions. - Any explanations?
    And finally, I know you can get a hash symbol using various modifier-key combinations, but it's so much simpler on a PC when you can see it above the 3 number. (Especially on a music computer when you need it frequently as the sharp sign).

    I've found it interesting to learn that on some Apple keyboards, the button in question has the word "clear" marked on it (and nothing else).
    My button doesn't have 'clear' on it, or any words, just this symbol of a crossed-out parallelogram. (It's in exactly the same place as the 'clear' key, but performs no delete function that I can tell).
    I can't find a good picture, but you can sort of make it out here:

  • What is this button?

    I was playing around with my iPod touch 4th generation earlier and I noticed a new button I have never seen before when I was playing music. The button looked like a triangle and behind was a rectangle. The button was placed next to the Fast forward/Next Song button. When i touched the button, it showed me 4 different wireless networks and when I touched one wireless network the music didn't stop, but it I didnt here sound. when I pressed the button that said "Ipod Touch" I heard the music again. Can someone please tell me what this button is and what it does?

  • What is this button / tool / feature ?

    After upgrading Firefox to v.29, next to the new Open Menu button there is what at first sight appears to be a blank space but which on closer inspection has six grey dots forming a triangle in the lower right hand corner, giving it the appearance of a resizing tool. By clicking and dragging on it, I can change the width of the Firefox window, in just the same way as clicking-and-dragging on the right border of the Firefox window. If I right-click on it and choose "Remove from Toolbar" it disappears, but reappears as soon as I restart Firefox.
    Is this simply a redundant resizer (or, more accurately, "re-widther")? If so, is there any way to get rid of it?

    The image is very small that I almost deleted it. Can you possibly take a bigger screenshot?
    Can you give me a screenshot so I know what you're seeing? Please see [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]] to create a screenshot<br>
    Once you've done this, attach the saved screenshot file to your forum post by clicking the '''Browse...''' button below the ''Post your reply'' box. This will help us to visualize the problem.
    Can you start by giving us the troubleshooting information from the Firefox installation that's having problems. This is an essential step in troubleshooting.<br>
    *Click the Firefox button at the top left, then click the ''Help'' menu and select ''Troubleshooting Information'' from the sub-menu. If you don't have a Firefox button, click the Help menu at the top and select ''Troubleshooting Information'' from the menu.
    Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
    *At the top of the page, you should see a button that says "Copy text to clipboard". Click it.
    *Now, go back to your forum post and click inside the reply box. Press Ctrl+V to paste all the information you copied into the forum post.
    Can you try to start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if Firefox works properly with no error? You can start Firefox in Safe Mode below:
    *'''Windows/Mac''': Go to Help > Restart with add-ons disabled
    *'''Linux''': Run ''firefox -safe-mode'' in the Terminal/Konsole
    <b>If Firefox opens up fine with no problems, it's probably one of your extensions that's causing the issue. You can re-enable your add-ons one by one until you find the one that causes the issue upon being re-enabled.</b>

    Hmm. The problem still may be the RAM - Apple buys the RAM it puts in its machines from third-party vendors (usually Hynix) so it could be a RAM problem.
    There are a couple of things that you can do yourself before taking your machine into an Apple Store or an AASP... download and run an application named Rember that will run a RAM test for you - let it run for a couple of hours or even overnight. If it turns out that your RAM is faulty, Rember will let you know. If it is faulty, then you have a couple of options - replace the RAM yourself or (particularly if you're under warranty still) take the machine to an Apple Store or AASP and have them replace the RAM.
    If Rember finds no fault with the RAM, then you'll need to take it into an Apple Store/AASP and get a free diagnosis on the machine. Three beeps do usually indicate faulty RAM, but if it tests good with Rember you likely have another problem - it could be something as simple as the RAM, somehow, not seated correctly or signs of another hardware problem.
    Run Rember first... call back with results.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • MM - PO - what is the meaning of this button?

    Dear friends,
    Could anybody help me with one question.
    There is a strange button in a Purchasing Order on the Account Assignment tab page on this screenshot (it is marked with red color).
    Screenshot below
    http://content.foto.mail.ru/mail/raiden87/81/i-84.jpg
    What is the meaning of this button? When it is used for?
    I hope that anybody knows the meaning =)

    hi raiden,
    as for as i have gone through the issue I have come to know that:
    If you want to use multiple account assignment for a line item in PO then at that moment you will have to first press the "repeat on " button. only after that multiple account button will be active that is just before your "repeat on " button.
    Steps:
    1:Save your PO.
    2:Go to transaction code ME22N to change the PO.
    (Here you will firstly see that the multiple a/c assignment button is firsty gray.It will become active only after when you press the "repeat on" button).
    I hope It will be helpfull for you.
    regards,
    Aslam Ansari.

  • What's wrong with this button code

    Dear All,
    I am trying to set up a button handler for many buttons
    rather just one. The
    intention of this code is to say if I press Load1 to Load40
    that button and
    only that button's alpha should change to 50%. This code
    makes them all 50%
    alpha when the frame loads rather than on the onPress event.
    Can someone please help me out with this one?
    i = 0;
    while (i<40) {
    this["Load"+i].onPress = btnEvaluate(this["Load"+i]);
    ++i;
    function btnEvaluate(target_btn:Button) {
    target_btn._alpha = 50;
    Thanks again.

  • My Power Mac G4 booted from an OS 9.1 install CD, and then froze up.  Now I turn the machine on, beeps 3 times, power button blinks 3 times.  What does this mean?

    I tried to install Mac OS 9.1.  I turned the computer on, heard the bong noise (although with some static), and inserted the OS 9.1 installation CD.  It started to boot, but froze up.  I rebooted the machine, and the same thing happened.  One more reboot, and i get 3 beeps and the power button is blinking.  What does this mean?

    Hi, it indicates a RAM problem, (or Logic Board around the RAM).
    The power on self-test resides in the ROM of the computer. This test runs whenever the computer is turned on after being fully shut down (the power-on self-test does not run if the computer is only restarted).
    If a fault is detected during the test, you will not hear a normal startup chime. Instead, the system will beep as explained below. If you experience one of these beeps, you may call your Apple Authorized Service Provider for additional troubleshooting assistance.
    1 beep  = no RAM installed
    2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
    3 beeps = no good banks
    4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
    5 beeps = processor is not usable
    In addition to the beeps, on some computers the power LED will flash a corresponding number of times plus one. The LED will repeat the sequence after approximately a 5-second pause. The tones are only played once.
    Note: In this case, a flash is considered to be 1/4 second or 250 ms or greater in length.

  • What does this mean? I cloud button said-.

    What does this mean? When i click on i-cloud button on the top of window, it said: I-cloud automatically shows all the open tabs on the other device.
    Thank.

    Hi Susan,
    I am afraid not.
    I have the same iCloud ID on both the Mac and the iPhone.
    I have the Safari item enabled in iCloud on both.
    The cloud button does not work on the Mac and has only once worked on the iPhone.
    Currently I can see neither device's open tabs one the other.
    EDIT !!!!
    Found it.
    In that first pic (above but today's date) is a Private button.
    It needs disabling for the Mac to "see" the iPhone's tabs
    THEN the use the Double Squares and flick up the tabs which will then reveal the linked Computer (or other Device I presume
    Example on Mac.
    The Privacy button is not mentioned in the Link and it was only chance that I pressed it to see what it did.

    yesterday for the first time i turned on my macpro 2011 model and i got a crazy gray screen with lines all over it ,so i held down the power button and turn off then restarted and all was ok could someone help me with this,what caused this shut down. werd

    Are the lines like psychedelic herringbone?  If yes, I had that happen once, it was something serious, like the
    Logic board. The good news is that it was fixed without any loss of data on the hard drive. Take it in to have Apple look at it ASAP.  I took it to TekServe at the time, they are very nice about preserving your data and user library when possible.
    Good luck and don't panic.

  • Turn mic input into another speaker output on G60-235DX?

    On other computers I have had, I could turn the mic input into a second headphone/speaker jack but I do not know how to do it with this laptop and I'm new to Vista as well. On page 5 of the Notebook Tour User Guide located here it says "This table describes factory settings. For information about changing factory settings, refer to the user guides located in Help and Support." but I just do not know what "Help and Support" it is referring to exactly. When I am on the G60-235DX page and I click a link in the "Support for this product" box in the lower right, I can never seem to chase down any info on this subject. I have periodically done a search and then given up and now I realize I am just not going to be able to do it without bothering someone else for the answer. Thanks for any help!

    See my answer to the other thread you opened. When you do that, you have a double conversion (first D/A, then A/D - though I don't know what actually happens when you use a capturing software like AudioHijack), you might create a hum etc.

  • My Airport Time Capsule only works when I turn off and turn on, but I think this may end up with the unit. What can this happening and how to solve?

    Time Capsule Airport
    Hello to all, good day, sorry my english google, but it is the tool I have at the moment. I'm having trouble with my Time Capsule Airport, I made all the settings according to the manual, but there has been a connection problem with my iMac. When I finish my work I turn off the imac and then again when they return to work and care, it can not connect to Time Capsule Airport, making it impossible to remove the files and make back up by Time Machine only works when I turn off and turn on the Airport Time Capsule , but I think this may end up with the unit. What can this happening and how to solve? Thank you.
    Olá a todos, bom dia, desculpe meu inglês google, mas é a ferramenta que tenho no momento. Estou tendo dificuldades com a minha Airport Time Capsule, fiz todas as configurações de acordo com o manual, mas tem existido um problema de conexão com meu iMac. Quando termino meus trabalhos desligo o imac e depois quando retorno pra trabalhar novamente e ligo, ele não se conecta a Airport Time Capsule, impossibilitando retirar os arquivos e fazer o back-up pelo Time Machine, só funciona quando desligo e ligo a Airport Time Capsule, mas acho que isso pode acabar com o aparelho. O que pode esta acontecendo e como resolver? Obrigado.

    This is easier to do with pictures perhaps.. since we do not share a common language and machine translation leaves a lot to be desired.
    In the airport utility bring up your Time Capsule.
    Simply post the screenshots here.
    So here is mine.
    Click on the Edit button and give us the Internet and Wireless and Network tab..
    eg.
    Please also make sure you are set to ipv6 in your wireless or ethernet .. whichever is used.. and do tell which.
    This is wifi in your computer.
    The following are important..
    DO not use long names with spaces and non-alphanumeric names.
    Use short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    eg TC name. TCgen5
    Wireless name TCwifi
    Use WPA2 Personal security with 10-20 character pure alphanumeric password.
    read apple instructions to help with TM and TC.. they did finally admit it has issues in Mavericks.
    OS X Mavericks: Time Machine problems
    Mount the TC manually in finder.
    AFP://TCgen5.local
    When asked for the password .. that is the disk access password and save it in the keychain.
    Reset Time Machine
