What's this icon?? Little phone receiver on menu bar


My dad sent me a screenshot of his iPhone. I don't know what the phone receiver icon in the upper right hand corner is. He says its there all the time.

It's a phone that's approved-unlocked by O2 that I'm using with Airtel in India.
I note that Apple's website says that if you put a sim card in from a carrier not on their list it turns the TTY setting on.

My carrier (Airtel) is on the list though, although having bought the phone in the UK, had it unlocked by O2 and now using it with a general Airtel SIM card, not one sold with one of their Indian sourced iPhones, so I guess that's how it got turned on. But I don't have the setting to turn it off - not sure what to do about that.

  • 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.

  • What is this icon, and what does it do?

    When you open an email and are in the read mode, at the bottom of the
    Screen, right in the middle there is an icon that looks like a box with an arrow
    Pointing into it. When I hit that, the piece of mail I am reading disappears.
    I can't find the description even in the iOS manual. What is this icon and what
    Is it doing to the mail that disappears? Occasionally I can find that email in the
    All mail folder.. But not always.. So confusing!

    I believe that is the "archive" button. You have a setting for that instead of delete. Do you see the trash can? If not, that is what it is. Here is a link to the iPhone manual and you can see about changing that, but I would have to say it is probably in settings, mail.

  • Every time i close my macbook and open it the airplay icon disappears from both the menu bar and itunes

    every time i close my macbook and open it the airplay icon disappears from both the menu bar and itunes or i get an error when i try to use it
    do you know why and how to solve this problem?

    Hi Colin,
    A couple of things you can try:
    Open System Preferences and click on Network. Click on the small gear icon below the list of connections and select Set Service Order. Move your AirPort connection up to the top of the list so it will be first in line when your computer searches for connections. (It's probably looking for ethernet connections first..the normal default..and finding none, it then looks for wireless. This takes time.
    Click on your AirPort connection again to highlight it and then click Advanced in the lower right of the pane. Make sure your wireless network is at the top of the list. Delete other networks that you don't need.
    Finally, make sure there is a check mark in the box next to "Remember any network this computer has joined".
    See if one of these actions will help.

  • My creative cloud icon has gone from the menu bar on top right hand side of screen

    the creative cloud icon is gone from the menu bar?  How can I get it back?

    Sometimes too many open apps will hide it, but if it closed,
    Restart the Creative Cloud app. Look for it in Spotlight.

  • HT1338 how can i see the icon of mirroring options on menu bar?

    i did check the mirroring options on menu bar in the system preferences - display  but nothing happens, i don't see the icon in the menu bar HELP!!!!!!!
    Does anybody knows why there's no icon of mirroring options or airplay on the menu bar ( i have a macbook pro and imac with mountain lion running )

    Your Macs are probably too "old".  Apple is pushing AirPlay and unless you have a newer (2011+) Mac, you'll never get the Displays menu bar icon back in its previous form.  It is possible to get the icon to appear on your menu bar, however, your only option will be to "Open Display Preferences".  You won't be able to detect displays, adjust brightness or change resolutions from the menu bar...
