White dot beside icons in Navigation Bar

What does it mean when a small white dot appears beside some of the icons within the nav bar? I assume it means that the application is running in the background. Is it prudent to "Quit" these applications or is it OK to keep it running in the background? Sometimes I don't like to Quit it, as it disappears off the nav bar and I have to retreive it. Thanks!

Hi MagicMan88
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Yes, the white dot indicates that the Application is open.
To retain any Application on the Dock +(Navigation Bar)+ control (right) click on it and in Options select Keep in Dock. Now then when you Quit the Application, the short cut icon should remain on the Dock for the next time you want to open it.

  • Please help. How can I get rid of this red dotted border around my navigation bar images?

    If you go to my site here...
    http://metalwolf92.zymichost.com/
    And left-click and hold down your mouse, but don't release, on any of the navigation button images. Notice the red dotted border? How can I get rid of those?
    All images already have border set to 0.

    I just noticed your page has no css. so in Code View, replace this closing tag:
    </head>
    with this:
    <style type="text/css">
    a:active {
      outline: none;
    </style>
    </head>

  • Why is there extra white space on below the navigation bar?

    I am running Nightly 6.0a1, and for the past few days, there has been extra white space under the Navigation Toolbar, as though there is an extra empty toolbar. The only toolbar I have is the Navigation Toolbar. BTW, this happens w/ tabs on top and bottom. Here's a screenshot: [http://i1004.photobucket.com/albums/af162/cg2916/extraspace.png http://i1004.photobucket.com/albums/af162/cg2916/extraspace.png]

    Do you see any toolbars listed in "Nightly > Options" that are visible but do have a check mark?

  • How do put an e-mail icon on navigation bar?

    I am new to firefox & do not know how to get to my e-mail while on the browser. Can I put an e-mail icon on the browser somewhere that will start-up Outlook Express.

    Firefox hasn't had a feature like that for over 5 years now. You need to install this extension to get that functionality and the icon.

  • It is possible for linux version to use the same icons of windows and mac version in the navigation bar?

    Firefox for linux uses the gtk theme icon in navigation bar, instead mac and windows uses other (trasparent) icons . I find more beautiful icons used in mac and win. Is there any way to force firefox to use this type of icons?

    Have you checked the themes add ons? You may find a "Windows 7" theme or something similar!

    I just updated to ios 7 but now facebook won't open on my phone.   There is a blue dot beside the Facebook icon on my phone.  Suggestions?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer          
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Removing icons from the navigation bar.

    I have two icons on my navigation bar that I can't remove. One is from Amazon and the other is from Ebay. I've tried holding Command and dragging them into the trash. Nothing. I've tried using the "customize" option and dragging them there. Still nothing. Any ideas? My Macbook has Mountain Lion as OS. Thanks in advance for any help,
    bgstreet

    Sorry, I should have been more clear. The navigation bar on my web browser, Firefox. There's a navigation bar at the top of the screen, just under the URL address bar. There are some plug in icons here, but somehow also these icons from Amazon and Ebay. I'd like to remove them. What do you think?
    thanks,
    bgstreet
    PS:  check out on the screen shot, the right upper corner, the icons are there.

  • When I select Toolbar-Customize and the options box opens, the Navigation Bar icons disappear.

    Two questions: 1) When I select Toolbar, then Customize, the box with the toolbar options opens, but my Navigation bar icons disappear, so I can't add the spaces, bars, etc. to it. How do I fix that? 2) I can reposition the icons in the Navigation bar without being in Customize, with the exception of the Search Address box. How do I reposition the Search Address box? Thanks.

    Opening in the Sidebar is the default action for bookmarks that are created via a "Bookmark this Page" link or button on a website. Make sure you use the many "Bookmark this Page" methods that are in Firefox instead.
    Right-click those bookmarks and select '''Properties''', then un-check the preference for '''Load this bookmark in the sidebar''', and then click Save.

  • Adding Icon Image Elements to a Navigation Bar in Adobe Muse?

    I want to add a rollover image in my navigation bar - I want the rollover image to have a dotted line surrounding it and I can't make dotted lines in Muse so I want to make the image in fireworks and import it into my menu. Can this be done and if so, how?!!

    You can use fill image for menu items with defined states, regarding dotted stroke line , try this :

  • Move or drag icons from Add-on bar to navigation bar or somewhere else

    How can I move or drag icons from Add-on bar to navigation bar or somewhere else?
    I want close my Add-on bar that looks not so handsome and move its app icons to tab bar or etc. can I do this and if yes how?
    Thanks.

    I think I figured this out. Got to the toolbar that you want to pull these icons to and right click on an open space and select "customize". This will then open that box which contains icons that you can choose from to drag to that bar. Now look at the icons on your add-on bar and drag the ones that you want to that box vs directly to the toolbar. You can now drag those icons from the box to the toolbar. I did it with two extension icons that I wanted up top because having it on that stupid looking toolbar at the bottom looks lame. At least it does to me:)

  • Why do all the unused icons appear in a box on the navigation bar after I download a file?

    Since the last Firefox upgrade last week a large box of all the unused icons appears on the navigation bar after I download a file. If I click on this box, the previous download information appears. The icons in the box aren't useable. This box doesn't appear when I first open Firefox. The box is so big it crowds out the other items in the navigation bar. Any ideas?

    This issue is caused by a broken extension that isn't working properly and that doesn't support the current Firefox release.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • Image in Navigation Bar

    Hi,
    could anyone tell me, what I have to do, to display a image in the "Navigation Bar".
    I select a image in section "Image Attributes", but it isn't displayed?
    The text in field "Icon Subtext" is displayed.
    Thanks for any help
    Norbert

    Hi Roel,
    please can you reopen that issue!
    First question:
    - I realized, that my images will not shown with the IE 7?
    Second problem I have:
    - is there a way to define a second variable besides #NAVIGATION_BAR# maybe #NAVIGATION_BAR_1# and redirect items defined in the application under the "Shared Components" --> "Navigation Bar" to that variable?
    Purpose is to have two navigation bars and show e.g. two items in the first, the next item in the second bar.
    Do you have answers for the two questions?
    Thank you
    Norbert
