White stars in blue corner on favorites page?

QUICK Q: Just what does it mean when a white star on a blue "peeled back" corner appears on one of your favorite thumbnail screens when you view your 'favorites' page? I feel super dumb but it doesn't seem to make any consistent sense.

It means that page has been updated since your last visit.
Information for Safari 4 for this article but pretty much the same for TopSites in Safari 5.

  • White triangles appear in Favorites page

    Hi all,
    I am having some trouble with Safari's favorites page: when the bookmarks bar is open, white triangles appear on the page. Furthermore, when a webpage is open, one appears at the bottom of the bookmarks bar (beside the Edit button). They tend to move around arbitrarily, and it is difficult to get a screenshot as they have a habit of hiding. I did manage to grab one, however. Any ideas what this is or how to fix it?
    I'm running 10.10.1 on a mid-2010 MBP, 2.66GHz, Nvidia GeForce GT 330M 512MB.
    Thanks!

    Might be a cookies, cache, extensions, or plug-ins issue.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:   Remove All Website Data
    Then delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that didn't help, from the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

  • Hue of Blue Color in Web Pages of E7

    I 've had my E7 for about three months now but there is this problem of strong hue of blue color that makes web and other pages very difficult to read.  I tried Opera browser and that is very unstable almost to the point of unusable. Does anybody know how I can get rid of this blue haze and have a white background with black or blue lettering? Thanks in advance for your help

    Hi msidnoble,
    We're sorry to hear about your problem. If the blue hue is only visible on the phone's default browser, resetting your phone to factory settings may help. 
    Before resetting, remember to make a backup of your phone with Nokia Suite.
    Dial *#7780# to soft reset your device, this will return the phone to factory settings without removing any personal data. If this does not solve the issue, hard reset your phone.
    Dial *#7370# to hard reset your device.  Hard reset will remove all settings and personal data off the phone, so remember to backup your data first.
    When prompted for security code, default code in both cases is 12345.
    After the reset just restore your backup (untick "settings") and re-install your applications from "My Stuff" on Nokia Store.
    If the problem persists or if you suspect that the blue hue is a hardware issue, we would advise you to visit the nearest Nokia Care Point and let them have a look.
    Let us know if this helps,
    Puigchild
    If you find this post helpful, a click upon the white star at bottom would always be appreciated.

  • Photos from the Internet will not load correctly. I get white boxes with blue question marks inside. This has only been happening for the past 3 weeks so I'm not sure why it is happening.

    Photos from the Internet will not load correctly. I get white boxes with blue question marks inside. This has only been happening for the past 3 weeks so I'm not sure why it is happening.

    Yes - email & text work fine but when I use something like Google Images or search a blog with imbedded photos I get the empty white boxes with question marks.  If I click the question mark it opens the photo but I can't possibly do that for EVERY image on EVERY page I search!?!?!  I've rebooted the iPad & my wireless card several times but neither action helped.  Have any clue what I should do now?

  • Anyone have the problem of iPhone6 momentarily flashing brilliant white in top right corner when turn on?

    Anyone have the problem of iPhone6 momentarily flashing brilliant white in top right corner when turned on?

    Here's an example of what I'm talking about:
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2Sq_qEpEM6jMVQ4S2diVnFtNHM/edit?usp=sharing
    Again, this only happens for certain video content available in the iTunes store. This was taken from Star Wars: The Clone Wars episode season 5, episode 16 "The Lawless". More recently I've noticed this happening to iTunes store videos in iTunes for Windows (v11.1, Windows 7 SP 1), my iPad mini (iOS 7.0.3), and my iPod Touch 4th gen (iOS 6.1.3), in addition to my Apple TV (v6.0 software). Sometimes it occurs during the whole episode, sometimes just for a few seconds. It's also not consistent across devices; some will the play the same video with the green dot and some without. I'm at a loss to explain it given this lack of consistency, so any help would be appreciated.

    There is nothing wrong with your Dell, it will work fine with any MacbookPro. I have been using Dell displays for over 12 years with many different Mac models. I have two 21" Ultra Sharp displays working side by side to design a Keynote presentation right now.
    The issue your having is with the way Keynote  takes control of the video output to both displays, it sends the presentation signal to one and the presenter display to the other, this is set up in;
    Keynote preferences > Presenter display.
    If you want to show a wesite or another app on  either display,  use application switcher:
    press the the  command key on the keyboard, then the tab key; a row of applications will show what applications are running, choose which one you want to show. Use command  > tab to return to Keynote.

  • How do you get rid of white space when you are printing multiple pages to one sheet of paper?

  • I have these black boxes surrounding things, e.g., there is a black box around the red "close" button on the upper left corner of this page.  There is also an oblong black box

    Hi - I'm not only having trouble waking up my MBP from sleep and having to restart repeatedly which is a pain in itself, but now when it restarted, I have these black boxes surrounding things, e.g., there is a black box around the red "close" button on the upper left corner of this page.  There is also an oblong resizable black box sitting on top of anything.  The content changes depending on the actions I take.  Right now it says, "You are currently on a close button.  To click this button, which closes the current window, press Control-Option-Space."  Right now I'm open in Firefox, but it doesn't matter if only Finder is open, it's still there.  I've tried closing all my applications and restarting and I also reset the PRAM.  It won't go away.  It's probably something simple, but I don't know how to get rid of it.  Any suggestions are welcome.
    Thanks,
    Janet

    Thanks so much.  I saw this on "desktop strangeness" immediately after I posted and tried to retract my question.  It worked perfectly.  I'm not sure how VoiceOver got turned on unless something happened when I was trying to wake up the computer.  I open the lid and it flashes whatever is open and then the screen goes black and I can't wake it up.  Still looking for the resolution to this.

  • On my MacBook Pro when I am connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable, Facebook pictures do not load. They show up as white boxes with blue question marks.

    On my new MacBook Pro when I am connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable, Facebook pictures do not load. They show up as white boxes with blue question marks. This also happens on a website editor. But, when I am connected to the internet via Wifi, everything load properly. This is my work computer, so I have to be able to connect through the Ethernet cable to access everything. Please help me!

    I mostly use Safari. But I also tried it on Firefox, Mozilla, and Camino. Mac OS X. It's my work computer, so I've only tried it at the office. I have to be connected through the Ethernet cable to access my files and email on the server.

    Hi jkjuarez2012,
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like your iPod nano is only showing the Apple logo with a white background, and you've tried many good steps including resetting and restoring the device. I know I'd miss my music in this situation.
    Make sure that you followed the steps in this article when restoring your iPod:

  • Question - How to Revise a Javascript for Printing a Dynamic Date in the Right Corner of the Page

    Hi Everyone,
    I am using Adobe Professional 8.0.
    How do I revise the JavaScript (not created by me) below in order to execute the two (2) following changes:
    1) Dynamic Print Date - 1.0 inch Up and 1.0 inch Over from the Right Corner of the Page.
    2) Dynamic Print Date - 0.5 inch Up and 1.0 inch Over from the Right Corner of the Page.
    The JavaScript I want to revise is the following:
    /* Put script title here */
    // Add field to each page of form
    var inch = 72;
    for (var p = 0; p < this.numPages; p++) {
    // create rectangle quads for field
    var aRect = this.getPageBox( {nPage: p} );
    aRect[1] = 1.0*inch;
    aRect[3] = aRect[1] - 72; // and 24 points high
    // now construct text field to fill with date information
    var f = this.addField("PrintField", "text", p, aRect )
    f.delay = true;
    f.textSize = 10;
    f.textFont="Arial,Bold";
    f.textColor = color.black;
    f.alignment = "right";
    f.readonly = true;
    f.print = true;
    f.hidden = true;
    f.delay = false;
    var myWillPrintScript = 'var f = this.getField("PrintField"); \r'
    + 'f.hidden = false; \r'
    + 'var d = new Date(); \r'
    + 'var year = d.getYear()+1900; \r'
    + 'f.value = "Print Out Date:" + (d.getMonth()+1) + "/" + d.getDate() + "/" + year; \r';
    var myDidPrintScript = 'var f = this.getField("PrintField"); \r'
    + 'f.value = ""; \r'
    + 'f.hidden = true; \r';
    this.setAction("WillPrint", myWillPrintScript);
    this.setAction("DidPrint", myDidPrintScript);
    Thank you for your help!

  • How to show the login user Id in the upper right corner of each page?

    Hi,
    I was wondering how to show the login user Id in the upper right corner of each page?
    thanks so much!
    cchu

    Cchu,
    The easy question first: applying a style to the welcome message. If you look at the page source, you'll see that #WELCOME_USER# is expanded to <div class="app-user">Welcome: DEMO</div> So to change the style of the message, you need to tweak the style of the app-user div in your CSS, or override it in a style block in your HTML header.
    Now, the tougher question: why the text is wrapping for you. And, really, without seeing your entire page, I can't give a full answer. But I'd suggest that what's most likely happening is that the table column you're putting it in is too narrow, so it's wrapping; try replacing the td tag with <td nowrap="nowrap"> This will force the column to be wide enough to display the full message, but might result in weird formatting elsewhere on the page (depending on what all is in your table).

    And if this is the new IOS Pages v2 (or the older IOS Pages 1.7.2), you click the wrench icon and then Document Setup. Tap the document header to edit it, and apply the same instructions that I gave previously for OS X Pages v5.
    The process for Pages ’09 v4.3 is slightly different. You click the Header, and enter your document title and your name as previously described. You will need Menu > View > Show Ruler. Click once in the ruler at the first or second mark after the 7 inch (roughly 18cm). This will set a tab. Now position the insertion mark behind your title and tab once to the mark you set. Now you can Menu > Insert > Auto Page Numbers ...
