Why does the loading icon never go away?

I went to an adult site by accidnet and a pop up appeared. It was blacked out and I exited. Then when I went to facebook the loading icon just kept on spinning. It doesn't stop and it keeps coming back. I went to general settings and deleted my cache, history and cookies but that didn't work. I also tried restarting my phone but nothing. When I go to other web sites its ok but the only site its happening to is Facebook, the app itself is ok. What could be causing this?

Try force quitting the FB app, followed by resetting your phone.  Double-tap the home button to bring up the recents list at the bottom, locate the FB app, tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap the minus sign.  Now reset your phone: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release.  If the problem continues, try deleting the FB app (tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap the "x" to delete), then redownload it.

  • Why does the charge indicator never go away in iOS 7???

    I think it is a HORRIBLE design in iOS 7! The charging icon NEVER goes out, even if your phone is completely charged!

    I guess it's now a "connected to power" indicator instead of a "charging" indicator. I just look at the percent and how full the battery icon looks.

  • Why does the apple icon come on then off then a white screen appears?

    Why does the apple icon come on then off then a white screen appears? 

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why does the update icon always on my desktop photoshop elements 10 icon

    why does the update icon always stay on the photoshop 10 icon on my desktop?

    We don't know because update function is hidden so deep in the Menu bar's help item that many people don't even know about it.  Now you are telling us that an icon is on your desktop so this is completely unusual.
    Are you sure it is not the icon for the PSE10 to make it easy for you to launch it?  Can you post a screenshot of what is on your desktop.
    We look forward to hearing from you soon.

  • Why is the loading icon staying on?

    I have just got the ipad air 2. Its all been backed up from my old ipad 2.
    Whenever I go back on the homepage, the loading icon in the top left hand corner is continually on.
    Can anyone advise please?

    If you are recovering from an iCloud backup, the files are probably still recovering in the background.
    Check if your apps, photos and music are fully recovered.

  • HT4306 Why does the ping icon show next to some songs that I purchase and prevent me from burning onto a CD for my own personal use?

    Hi. I am having trouble burning songs that I have purchased from the itunes store onto a CD for my own personal use in my car. Why is the ping icon next to some of the songs I purchase,When I try to burn these songs I am told by a pop up that these songs can't be found, but they are in my itunes music list.I don't understand. Please advise me asap. hx Wendy159

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • Why does the Firefox icon on my desktop read1788 and not Mozilla?

    Recently the Mozilla icon on my desktop changed from reading Mozilla to 1788 (the writing right under blue the Mozilla Firefox symbol) . Is this something Mozilla has done or is there an issue I need to resolve and if so how to I resolve this issue?
    Also are there any free virus protection, that work with Mozilla?
    Thank you in advance for any help you can give me in this matter.

    No, the desktop shortcut hasn't been renamed. First, make sure it's really pointing to Firefox and not something else:
    1. Right-click the icon and choose Properties.
    <br>2. In the Properties window, click the Shortcut tab.
    <br>3. Make sure the Target field says<br>
    "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
    4. If it does, then click the General tab.
    <br>5. In the text box at the top, enter the name you want for the shortcut.
    <br>6. Click the OK button when done.
    I take it you're having problems with the avast! Online Security add-on, which is why you have it disabled? Any add-on that scans every link on every page is bound to add a delay to loading time. If you're having more severe issues, you can ask for help on the Avast forum:
    * http://forum.avast.com/index.php?board=2.0
    That add-on isn't required for virus and malware protection. Here are some alternatives to the features it provides:

  • Why does the genius icon appear when listening to ITuneU Lectures?

    I listen to a lot of podcasts and find the "back 30 seconds" button very handy. When listening to lectures in iTunesU however, that button is replaced with the genius icon. Why? Bueller, Bueller...

    If you notice closely, the location arrow points up on an angle. The iPod activity arrow points directly to the right. If you turn off the iPod App, the arrow goes away.
    BTW .... Tarentum, PA by chance?

  • Why does the airplay icon not appear after upgrading to Mavericks on my iMac.

    I am using an Apple TV, iPad 2, and an iMac with wifi sharing enabled.  Before upgrading to mavericks I was easily able to use airplay to mirror the display of my ipad2 to a projector.  After the upgrade the airplay icon will dispear.  When I restart the wifi sharing on my imac then the airplay icon will reappear on my ipad.
    Does anyone have a fix for this.  I use this in my classroom and this problem made yesterdays lesson almost undoable because students were givng presentations and each time a student wanted to project thier ipad screen I had to reset my wifi.

  • Why does the ipad 3 never fully sync?

    I bought an ipad3 a few months ago, and had so much problem trying to sync it returned it a few days later.  I already had the ipad 1, and wanted to upgrade.  Very disappointed (because I LOVE my ipad) I was given a new one in the shop, only to find it was doing the same things.  I have hung on, continuously trying to sync all y photos onto the device, for work, but it has only ever completed a full sync 2 or 3 times.   It either freezes the screen or says that the device disconnected before the sync or back up was complete.  I am going round the bend.  Never had any problems with ipad 1, can't understand it!  I am sure it is something simple I haven't done , but what??  Please help me!?

    The first thing is to  make sure that you're using the latest version of itunes on your computer. That may be the problem if it isn't updated. Make sure tha iipad is updated as well.

  • Why does the cloud icon not appear in safari

    Hey,
    iMac, Safari Version 6.0 (8536.25), OS 10.8.1. 
    Safari doesn't have the cloud icon, though I am signed into iCloud, and Safari is turned on in iCloud.  I am using iCloud to sync contacts and that works.  But when I try to  turn on the sync of notes I get told to go to the app store and get the latest iOS.   Which I already have...  (Open the App Store and update to the latest version of OS X.  After updating, you can turn on Mail and Notes.)
    The app store has no new OS X of course.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks,  the option is there in Customize Toolbar and it is set to appear on the toolbar, it just doesn't appear.
    Although...  The iPad can now collect the tabs. 
    Am I misunderstanding this?   Are tabs on the iPad not supposed to be visible on the iMac?

  • Why does the loading circle come up in the blue screen when I shut down sometimes?

    Sometimes when I shut down I get the usual blue screen, then the loading circle appears and the macbook doesn't shut down. I have to hold down the power button to shut it off, which I know is not a good thing. Can someone help me please???

    Hi,
    Do you usually Close All Open Apps before Shutting Down...?
    Is there an External Hard Drive Connected...?
    Usually the "Circle" represents the Mac 'Finishing Business...' before Shutting Down...
    Hope this Helps,
    Cheers,

  • Why does the mouse cursor move to away from the currrent application without the mouse being moved

    the mouse cursor moves away from the current application without the mouse having been moved - this started with the new version - re-installing Firefox makes the problem go away for a short period - re-installing is not a solution
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == a few days after installing 3.6.3

    Hello Jim.
    It's probably one of three things:
    #your mouse is getting old (this behavior is common in old optical mouses);
    #you have software that is making your mouse cursor behave unexpectedly (I know of an option in Windows that will automatically move your mouse to windows buttons...);
    #or you may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

  • Why does the attachement icon indicator (paper clip) only appear after the message is selected?

    In my inbox there should be an attachment indicator (paper clip) appearing on all messages that have an attachment, however, the icon only appears after the message is selected. So there is no way of knowing if a message contains an attachment without clicking on it. This is IMAP mail through Godaddy. thank you

    Is the mail set to synchronize or only download bodies when selected? My guess is the latter as the attachment forms part of the body so the header that is downloaded to form the mail list has no information about attachments. Hence Thunderbird becomes aware of an attachment once the body is downloaded.
