Why does my music have a red circle with a square dot beside it?
On my iPad 3, in music, some of my songs have a red circle with a square dot, the songs are grayed out and I am unable to play them. Is there a new setting with ios 7? Does it no longer play mp3's?
Here's what I had to do, no thanks to the others on here who go at it like Apple, delete and restore.
No, you don't have to delete and restore. Just open a folder on your computer, call it something like iPad music, keep it open, open iTunes, select all your music, copy and paste it in the folder you just created, delete all your music from iTunes (relax, you just copied it into that folder). Select all the music in that folder, drop it back onto your playlist. Now, I renamed my playlist, because it was called untitled, originally, so if that doesn't work, rename, or delete and recreate your playlist, copy the music back over, sync, and they will play.
Worked for me, anyhow. Good luck!

Several songs have the cloud symbol with a red arrow and I think they play. But the ones with the red circle and red square in the center do not play. Can this be fixed> What does it mean?
Thanks in advance,See this Apple support document.

You'll notice that the problem is usually associated with a failed/damaged hard drive, meaning you'll likely need to have your iPod serviced if you want to get it working again.

I've copied much of my home CD collection to iTunes but some of the albums will not play. They are shown in my libraries but when opened each song in the album has a redcircle with a square inside icon displayed. When I go to play an album with the red icons listed next to each song the app quickly scans through the list of songs - no audio and that's it.
What does this icon mean? And how can I correct the problem?screen rotation lock has been enabled.

Why does my screen have a black background with all colours reveresed?
I've been having a few problems with freezing in my CAD programme. Today I sort of stopped it but the screen image became all fragmented. I have restarted several times but now the desktop back ground is orange rather than blue & the icons are black. Is this an Nvidia problem & if so how can i fix it.
thanks AJ
In pressing all they keys to try & unfreeze it I must have swithched it from black on white to whilte on black!whoops I just solved it! There is a white on black screen preference but its not under Displays its under Universal Acess. V/relieved

What should i do to get my iphone to find these songs again. They work fine on itunes, and as i said, they used to work fine on my phone. recently I synced my phone and added a few new songs, once i did that i noticed that about 50-100 different songs or so just no longer play. this is ********! It seems the iphone thinks theyre there but not fully transfered to my phone.... ive resynced my phone several times and its still not helping.... WAY TO GO APPLE!
Try restoring the iPhone to factory settings via iTunes and then to re-sync.
Before you attempt this, restart your iPhone and see whetehr issue is sorted. -
My iphone 4s will no longer sync music from my music library on my Macbook Pro. I also have a bunch of songs that now have a red circle with a box in it next to the song on my phone and those songs will not play. They are present in my itunes library and I can play them on my Mac but they will not play on my iphone. I have tried unchecking all the music and applying those changes and syncing and it does nothing. All the same music remains on my phone, unchanged. Help! What do I do? I have read to uninstall iTunes and reinstall it but will I lose all my music?
Hello Courtney,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when syncing your music to your iPhone. It sounds like iTunes is not able to locate the original file for the song to transfer it to your device. I recommend reviewing the following articles to locate you music files on your computer:

Red circle with red square inside- what does it mean in iTunes next to songs?
I can't play songs on iTunes that have a red circle with a small red square inside it. What does the symbol mean and how do I get rid of it. I have one iPad 2, one iPhone 5 and one ip[hone 6 plus bit only one iTunes account and one computer where all the songs are stored. The same song will play on the phones but not the iPad!! I really don't want to keep upgrading the software cos really it just creates more problems!!
! = iTunes cannot find the file that contains the media associated with the entry in the iTunes database. iTunes itself does not contain your music, it just uses a reference to play a file on your computer. Something happened to break that link. Many reasons. Your computer may be having directory problems (directory = computer's database of what files it thinks are on the drive). You may have renamed a folder or file or moved a folder or file related to iTunes.
When you try to play the file iTunes will ask you if you want to associate a file with that entry. You can answer yes and look for the file that you think it should play. If the file is truly missing then you have bigger worries because who knows what else could be missing - the whole reason for computer backups and periodic maintenance. -
What does the red circle with #1 mean on an specific app?
My App store shows that all apps are up to date, but 2 games have a red circle with number 1: 4 elements and Call of Atlantis
I'm not sure how your question relates to apps and games on the iPad. This is the Using iPad forum. I have never downloaded an app in the Mac App Store. The information that I provided is in reference to games and apps using the iPad, but I assume that the Mac App Store works the same way.
Bearing in mind that I have never downloaded from the App Store on the Mac, as I can best remember, only Apple applications and software updates would show up via Software Update. For instance, prior to the Mac App Store in Snow Leopard, any updates that were or are available in any third party applications on the Mac would have their own updaters and will not be available via Software Update. Microsoft Office for example had it's own Microsoft Updater application and those updates never came via Software Update. Software update does not work for third party apps.
Apparently, if you purchase for the Mac App Store, updates are indicated like they are on the iPad with the red number in the circle on the App Store icon in the dock. -
Received a mail message on my iPhone and next toit there is a red circle with a blue dot inside it. Normal messages have a solid blue dot when unread. What does the red circle with blue dot mean?

I would agree with Barney if the question had been an e-mail in the inbox but in the sent folder I still wonder why the blue dot. I also had this happen for the first time today 6/27/13. I resent both figuring it might mean the mail had not been sent properly.
No, it means unread, had you opened the mail in the sent folder the blue dot would have gone away. -
