Why do I have a red alert pellet on the system pref icon in IOS 6.0.1 ?

My iPhone 5 is new and from the start there has been a red alert pellet above  the System Preferences icon, exactly like the one above the telephone app to indicate a message.
I haven't been able to discover what this pellet corresponds to. Any ideas?

Well that's partly the point, because no. I thought to check that and because the software was up to date—I'd just downloaded 6.0.1—I was really puzzled.

    Double click the home button, then swipe up on the larger app window (not the icon). Do this for all open apps, then reset your device. Hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the apple, then let go.

    This happens a lot regardless of the web page. I continually have to restart FF and it persists still

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

    Where is your Calculator application located? Before you can put it into the Dock you need to remove the Question Mark. Select it with the mouse and drag it out of the until it "poofs" away. Now locate Calculator and drag its icon into the Dock.

  • Why are there 2 thin red vertical lines on the screen of my MBP 15" retina which is only 2 months old!

    I would just like to understand why there a two thin red vertical lines on the screen
    I suspect I need to bring into an apple store for diagnostics but is anyone aware of the likely cause?
    thanks v much!

    It could be a GPU issue, a display issue or a display connection issue.  The genius bar technician will offer you a definitive answer and should fix it under the warranty provisions.
    Ciao.

  • I have a red vertical line on the right side of my screen and it will not go away tried restarting my computer and that didn't help at all, please help me with this problem it is kind of annoying

    I have a red vertical line on the right side of my screen and it will not go away tried restarting my computer and that didn't help at all, please help me with this problem it is kind of annoying

    If it's a thin 1 pixel wide vertical line it's highly likely it could be caused by a defective LCD.
    One quick basic way to check is to note the position of the line. Then go to System Preferences, Displays, and lower the resolution. If ther line moves it's on the video and the logic board or video card if fitted is likely to be defective. If the line stays in the same position it's likely to be an LCD fault. Either way to have it repaired you'll need to visit an Apple store or AASP.
    The worst offender for this problem is the Late 2006 17" iMac. FOC replacement of the LCD used to be covered by a quality program, but it's now ended.

    I want to change my Apple ID to what I have as my rescue ID. The system will not let me.Is there a way to do this?

    You'll need to change/remove your rescue email address first :
       1.    Navigate to appleid.apple.com using your web browser.
        2.    Click "Manage your account"
        3.    When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
        4.    Click Password & Security
        5.    You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
        6.    After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.
        7.    Once you've finished editing your rescue email address, click the Save button directly below the email field.

    I assume you don't have a backup on an external HD. You always should, because then you could easily fix your problem.

  • FAQ: Why do I have a red or yellow bar over my sequence, and how do I render previews?

    The first thing to know is that a yellow bar isn't a sign of a problem (nor is a red bar, necessarily).
    See this article for details:
    Red, yellow, and green render bars and what they mean
    ... and this movie for a somewhat less detailed explanation:
    Why is there a red or yellow bar in my sequence?
    Here's the summary:
    green: This segment of the sequence has a rendered  preview file associated with it. Playback will play using the rendered  preview file. Playback at full quality is certain to be in real time.
    yellow: This segment of the sequence does not have a  rendered preview file associated with it. Playback will play by  rendering each frame just before the CTI reaches it. Playback at full  quality will probably be in real time (but it might not be).
    red: This segment of the sequence does not have a  rendered preview file associated with it. Playback will play by  rendering each frame just before the CTI reaches it. Playback at full  quality will probably not be in real time (but it might be).
    none: This segment of the sequence does not have a  rendered preview file associated with it, but the codec of the source  media is simple enough that it can essentially be treated as its own  preview file. Playback will play directly from the original source media  file. Playback at full quality is certain to be in real time. This only  occurs for a few codecs (including DV and DVCPRO).
    Note the uses of the word probably above. The colors aren’t a  promise. They’re a guess based on some rather simple criteria. If you  have a fast computer, then a lot of things marked with red may play back  in real time; if you have a slow computer, then some things marked with  yellow may need to be rendered to preview files before the segment can  be played in real time.

    This is not the work of a virus, or any other kind of malware. What it sounds like is a very badly corrupt hard drive causing all manner of corruption in your various system components and applications. You probably need to erase your hard drive and reinstall the system from scratch, as ds store has said.
    If you actually had malware, Sophos would find it. If Sophos found nothing, there was almost certainly nothing to find. If something like Sophos ever should find malware, unless the malware has "OSX" or "MacOS" in the name, it probably isn't Mac malware and thus isn't something you need to worry about (other than not passing it on to other people).
    MacScan is junk. It serves no useful purpose. See:

  • Why do I have to declare my int outside the function?

    `Hi!
    I've writen the very simple class get_results with one methode test:
    public class Get_results {
       protected int nb=0;
    public int test(int numb) {
             //int nb=0;
             nb=numb;
             return nb;
               }//End test
    }//End classthis methode will be called from a jsp file:
    <jsp:useBean id="results" scope="session" class="mypackage.Get_results" />
    <%= results.test(3) %>I don't understand why I have to declare int nb outside the function test. If I declare int nb at the beginning of the function and not right at the beginning of the class
    public class Get_results {
    public int test(int numb) {
             int nb=0;
             nb=numb;
             return nb;
               }//End test
    }//End classthe it doesn't work. I don't understand why since I only need the int nb in the test methode and nowhere else in the class.
    can anyone explane this to me?
    thanks.

    Please read this post then provide some details.  What operating system? Are there any error messages on the printer or computer screen when printing fails?
    Running the diagnostics at http://www.hp.com/go/tools may help resolve the issue.

  • Why does Firefox have to beg for money, like the winos on the street ?

    Why does firefox have to beg for money, like winos on the street ? If I had the money to donate, I gladly would, but I'm disabled on a fixed income and cannot afford to give money to anyone. I ran my own websites a few times, and never once begged for money to pay for my websites. Do you think everyone just sits back on their stack of cash, watching for any vultures that come around ? I've used firefox for 10 years, but if I'm no longer wanted, I will leave. Should I skip a few meals so I can send you 10 dollars, or cancel my doctor's visit for next week ? Maybe I could rake some yards in the neighborhood and make some extra money ? Wait, I can't walk but about 5 minutes, darn ! I had already dropped firefox for this very reason, and I thought the begging would be over, but it's still here ! Even microsoft and google recommend firefox ! It's a great browser, but I just can't afford to give money away. Maybe I could stop feeding my cat, I've heard they can survive without a human's help ? One of us would likely start eating the other ! Here kitty kitty !

    You don't have to donate - just ignore the request and move on with your day.
