What should I do about an icon, "Rebuilt Library" that appeared when I "grabbed" the top of my iPhoto window?

The icon appeared when I "grabbed" the top of my iPhoto window to move it across the desktop. I don't want to delete important files, and wonder what I should do about the icon.
I am using Time Machine.

Thanks LarryHN,
I have iPhoto version 9.4.3, and the "Rebuilt Library" icon is on the desktop.
Interestingly, when I closed iPhoto in order to perform the option startup, I got the spinning beachball and had to force quit—when I reopened, using the option key, a window did ask which library to use—I chose the rebuilt library.
I moved the "Rebuilt Library" icon to the iPhoto Library folder.
Thanks again!
Phill

Hi antdagreat601,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If you haven't already, I'd first try restarting or resetting your iPhone:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your device
Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If the volume icon doesn't go away, see our iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant for more help:

Have a great day,

I'm trying to download a FREE app on my iphone4s and the billing information thing keeps popping up. It wasn't doing that yesterday. What should I do? Idk why I need that info when the app is free

I'm trying to download a FREE app and the billing info thing keeps popping up. It wasn't doing that yesterday. Now I can't even download anything. What should I do ? Idk why I need thus info when the app is free

You must have a payment method in your iTunes account, even for free content. It is used to verify your identity. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534 for information on how to create a billing method if you don't have a credit card.

For some reason my attempts to download free apps result in automatically opening a box that require payment info - what's wrong?? I cannot get beyond that point. when i close the box the app-icon also disappeares

i used to be able to smoothly download free apps. suddenly, also free apps open a box that require my payment info. a message tells me that i did not finish a purchase. i cannot reset the whole thing and i am also not aware of a purchase i attempted. what can i do?

Check to be sure that you don't have something that never totally downloaded - look in iTunes and in iBooks as well - not only in the app Store. A stalled or incomplete download in one of the stores can cause problems with downloads in the other stores.
You can try to reset your iTunes account by signing out of the account and then signing back in. Restart the iPad in between signing out and signing in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID-tap the ID and sign out. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in.

What should I do about an odd icon on the desktop that appeared when I restored my iPhone?

I have an odd icon on the desktop that appeared when I restored the software in my iPhone, and I do not know what to do about the strange file. The scenario is as follows:
Recently I was having some problems with the proximity sensor on the iPhone, and I read that if one restored the software on the iPhone, this often allowed the sensor to be calibrated and it would work properly. Thus I synchronized (backed up) the iPhone and then wiped it out and reinstalled the software. At the point iTunes asked me did I want to restore the phone from a backup, I decided that since I did not to re-import any corrupted stuff from the old installation that might affect the operation of the proximity sensor, then I would start over and just set it up as a new phone. I was able to get what little I wanted of stuff otherwise from the iCloud and my music from iTunes, so everything seems to have gone fine.
However, now I have a file that has an image of a Lego-block with musical notes and an iPod on its sides that appeared on the desktop. The odd file is called "iPhone3,1_5.0_9A334_Restore.ipsw". What on earth is this all about???? When I search the internet, I see people who have jailbroken their iPhones talking about .ipsw files, but to the best of my knowledge, I have not done anything to jailbreak my iPhone, nor would I ever want to do such. Why did this file appear on my desktop? What is this file for for? Can I delete this file?
Thank you.

I forgot to mention also that when I tried to delete this icon, the trash eternally acted like it was emptyint the trash, but the progress bar was not progressing. I suppose that is because the file size is too large (812 MB).

What should I do about a Dreamweaver CS5.5 crash? --Won't

What should I do?
System: Windows 7 Professional
Issue: For no apparent reason Dreamweaver crashed. When I attempt to restart the program it begins, but quickly stops.
Clues: About two weeks ago I noticed that some of the icons within Dreamweaver stopped displaying. It didn't seem to affect performance so I ignored it. Also, I tried starting other programs Fireworks, Illustrator and got another error:Your user privileges do not allow Fireworks to update your registry.
What should I do about this?

Many "just started happening" problems can be solved by clearing the program cache and/or restoring preferences...
Deleting a corrupted cache file
Restore preferences | Dreamweaver CS4, CS5, CS5.5
If those do nothing, it may be time to do a clean and reinstall with the Adobe Cleaner Tool:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

No, you simply do not. Apple does not sell insurance.
Apple offers an Extended Warranty called AppleCare.
Warranties doe not cover lost or stolen devices. Buy a new one.

Last night, I saw my iPhone on the table in front of me and twice it made phone calls on its own. I just watched it make the outgoing call as it sat in front of me. Should I think that it has a virus? What should I do about it?

Also, it's been a little quirky lately: slow to respond to key pad touching and making it impossible to delete Apps?
Should I try wiping it and restoring it to factory settings?
Thank you.

It isn't a virus.
I would try the Restore from backup first and if that does not help try a Restore as a new iPhone.

Hi - it depends on how old your iPhone is. Is it fairly new or if its less than 28 days old you can bring it back to the store if bought through one of the common networks. I had an earpiece problem when I bought mine after just 10 days or so, I couldn't hear anyone through the earpiece and exchanged in store for Free.

I just heard a news report that there is a problem with malware in mac computers that came through a recent java update. Is this true? If so, what should be done about it?

As usual those "news" reports mangled the facts and got most of the story completely wrong. This particular attack did not arise through a Java update, it was distributed through a fraudulent Flash download popup window, or malicious websites that Safari is designed to block.
If you run Java on your Mac you may be vulnerable to this malware. If you do not run Java there is no risk. If you routinely keep your Mac up to date with Software Update the risk is greatly reduced.
Shut off the mass market junk that masquerades as "news" and read this to learn some real facts:
