  • Why is there a question mark in the Finder window?

    Why is there a question mark in the finder window that looks like this.     When I click the question mark in displays this message.                                                                                                                                  

    Because the item there has been moved from its original location or deleted (there's none in that location by default), or something made the Finder think there was an item there. In either case, the question mark can be removed by control-clicking it and choosing Remove Item, or by command-clicking it and dragging it out of the window.

  • Why is there a black part in the X when I try to delete my app? It's covering up the supposed to be white space around the X button

    Help!! Why is there a black part in the X when I try to delete my app? It's covering up the supposed to be white space around the X button

    Try:
    - Reset all settings                  
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                     
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Since they all line up on the left site that could be a hardware problem or maybe a software glitch. I have never seen that problem posterd here before

  • Why is there a Question Mark on my Documents folder

    Why is there a Question Mark on my Documents folder? It will not let me access the folder.
    Thank You

    The question mark means the link to your Documents folder icon on your Dock (which is only an alias) has been broken.
    Open Finder an observe your Documents folder.
    Drag the one with the question mark off the Dock. It will vanish!
    Drag the one from your Finder back to the Dock to replace it. This re-establishes the link

  • Why is there a question mark on the Startup Disc folder in System Preferences?

    Why is there a question mark on the Startup Disc folder in System Preferences?
    Thanks in advance.

    Because there's a permissions issue with the application, or it's been moved somewhere which isn't accessible to the second user account, or its entry in the Dock plist on the second account is corrupt, in which case it needs to be located in the Applications folder and dragged to the Dock.

  • Why is there a Question Mark in my Finder Window?

    This question mark has recently appeared in my finder windows on my 21" iMac (2010), any ideas why?

    If you performed an upgrade from an earlier version (such as 10.6.8) there might have been an item that you added to your Finder Window but cannot be found now to reinstate as part of the Finder Window. It such a case a Question Mark Icon appears as a place holder for the missing (or unfound) item.

  • Why is there a question mark over a printer icon on my dock?

    I have just installed a new printer on my computer.  I also have another printer installed along with this one.  I put this new printer's icon on my dock.  Now my old printer icon is showing a question mark over it.  I set my new printer to be the default printer.  Didn't know if that was the problem, so reset the default printer to be my old printer, but icon stayed.  Reset new printer to default and then turned on the old printer.  Question mark still there.  Set old printer to default and tuned on the old printer.  Set old printer to scan to see if setting it up to use it would do something.  Question mark still there.  I am stumped.  Anyone know why this is happening?  It just bugs me that it won't go away.

    Noticed in the print summary that the printer icon had a pause symbol over it even though there was no print job listed that could be deleted.  Then got brilliant idea - took icon off of dock and dragged a new icon to dock - voila!! question mark gone!!  Crazy.  Anyway thanks for your thoughts as it led me to try this.

  • Why is there a question mark on my startup disk.

    When I go to apple system preferences, there is a question mark on my startup disk. Why? and what should I do to resolve it.
    I don't have any problem starting my ocmputer and using it.

    in the system pref.
    the top line ... "Show all, Display, Sound, Network,
    Startup disk
    my 'startup disk' has a question mark!
    Right. That's fine. It's just telling you that you can click that icon to choose a different Startup Disk. That question mark is part of the icon for that preference pane.
    I click on it and I get a"select the system.."
    It shows my Mac OS 10.3.9 and Network Startup which
    has a question mark
    I do have OS selected.
    and question mark on Network.
    Is that correct?
    Correct.
    Now, where do I go to see my startup items?
    Click on "Show All" in the System Preferences. Then Accounts down in the System section. Choose your account in the list at the left hand side, then choose the "Startup Items" tab on the right.
    To remove an app from that list, select it and use the "-" button below. Unchecking it just means that if the application has a window, it'll be hidden at startup.
    Thanks for all your help.
    You're welcome.
    cheers,

  • Why is there a question mark in the top right corner of finder window?

    just noticed this today, what does it mean?
    http://www.flickr.com/photos/60782625@N08/5681554895/
    when i click on it it says " the item can not be found" what item?
    thanks for your help.

    This just happened to me. Help.
    There was a mounted disk image on the desktop. I used to command-drag these to the drive so that it would copy as a whole folder. I just did that in Mountain Lion. But a folder was nowhere to be found. I forgot about it and just ejected the disk image.
    Now I see there is a question mark at the right of every Finder window. I can't seem to remove it.
    EDIT: I googled for the answer and found it. It can be removed by first right-clicking to "Customize Toolbar". Then drag it off and poof..

  • Why is there a question mark

    There is a question mark on one of the pictures in my photobook creation.  What is it and how do I fix it?

    It means that the PSE Organizer cannot find the photo. It is not in the place that PSE expects it to be. This usually happens becuase you renamed or moved or deleted the photo outside of PSE. To fix it, find the actual location and file name of this photo using Windows, then in PSE select the photo and then File->Reconnect and then point PSE to the actual location of the photo.
