Why plus + icon next to keyword?

Why is there a plus (+) icon next to some keywords in the keyword panel?
I am not talking about the plus icon at the top to add new kewords.
Couldn't find it anywhere in the documentation. This is driving me nuts.
Can anyone help me?
thanks, Markus

Thanks, Wolf. This seems not to be in the help documentation, or hidden very well.
What makes this hard to find out, is that the keyword panel "remembers" this last painted word, even when the painter tool is closed.
But I don't understand the "shortcut' part in your reply. Is there a keyboard shortcut to assign this keyword without going to the painter?
That would be cool and then keeping the plus icon turned on would make sense.

Ok...so I have the latest version of iTunes...why isn't there a cloud icon next to the movie I just bought? I assume I need it to download from iCloud.

Ok...so I have the latest version of iTunes per response to my previous question. Why isn't there a cloud icon next to the movie I just downloaded? I assume that's the only way to access movies on the cloud. ( My computer shows the icon.)

What are you trying to do? If the movie is on your iPad, the cloud icon will not appear next to the movie. You will see the cloud icon next to the movie if you delete it from your iPad and then you can download it again. That is assuming that the movie is eligible for a free download as not every movie can be downloaded again for free.
This is a screenshot of the purchased tab in iTunes on my iPad. These movies are already on my iPad so there is no cloud icon next to them for another download.
What I don't understand is for what reason are you trying to access the movie? If you want to watch the movie, it is in the videos app. Maybe that is where I am missing the boat.

In the videos I've seen a thumbnail icon next to the bookmarks icon. Mine is missing. Any idea why or how to get it.

In the videos on the website I have seen a thumbnail icon next to the bookmarks icon for viewing all your open web pages. Mine is missing.Any idea why or how do I put one on?

Safari now uses tabs in iOS 5 so that icon is no longer in Safari. You have to tap on the + sign on the right side of the toolbar to create a new tab. You can open a new web site in that tab. You navigate from open page to open page by tapping on the tabs.
To close a tab - tap on the X in the left side of the tab.

Why is there a phone icon next to my ichat

why is there a phone icon next to my ichat?

Hi,
That depends where you are looking.
If you mean that at the top of a Buddy list next to your Buddy pic there is a green iCon and it is the Phone one rather than the Video camera one it means the Camera is either not connected or turned Off (See Video Menu)
Video icon (3 and 4 way chats)
Audio icon for multiway chats.
Both these icons can appear "Flat" and not "Stacked" if you or the Buddy can only do 1-1 chats.
I have never set up the AIM forwarding to a Phone to know what appears at your end.
For Buddies that are mobile a sideways looking wifi type icon appears next to their name in your list.

Why is i Tunes suddenly appearing in Finder under Devices with an Eject icon next to it?

I recently downloaded a new version of I Tunes due to problems with the existing one,now i Tunes appears in Finder under Devices with an Elect icon next to it. Normal?

It is normal. That's the iTunes installer you downloaded. You can press the eject button next to it without any problem because you do not need it. If you want, you can delete it from the folder where it is stored, in most cases, Downloads

Why is there a blue text icon next to one of my contacts

Check the FCPX manual chapter 14 page 460 "Status of shared projects". It basically means you have modified the project after it has been shared.

What is the use of plus (+) icon on Quick Look?

When select a file in finder and press <spacebar> for Quick Look, I see a new icon next to the (x) close icon. What is the purpose of that? I clicked on it and nothing happened.

It does exactly the same thing as all the other plus buttons in OS X, it makes the window big enough to see all of the content. To illustrate, drag the corner of the quicklook window to make the window too small for the content, then click the plus button to put it right.

What are the icons next to the printer name in the print sheet?

Ever since I upgraded to OS X Lion, I have noticed something different in the print dialogue. First the technical info: I am using a 2009 Mac Mini (4 GB RAM, OS 10.7.3) and I have a couple of printers that I use - one is a Brother laser printer (shared from an iMac, running 10.6.8) and a Canon Pixma Pro 9000, connected via USB to a Time Capsule.
When I hit Command-P to bring up the print sheet, I now get icons on the left hand side of some of the printer names in the printer list. One looks like a road sign - diamond shaped with a walking person in it, and the other is a circle with a wavy line (tilde?) in it. The other printer names have no icons next to them. I gather that the circle-and-tilde means "printer not available" (or something similar) - even though the printer is there!!! And then I wonder why the other printer names have no icons, and I have no clue what the "walking person" sign means.
I'm adding a couple of images so you all can see what I'm talking about:
What do these icons mean? I can find NO reference to them - even in Apple's knowledge base article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4670 - this just looks like the screen shots from the 10.6 Snow Leopard page. I looked in the OS X Lion Missing Manual, but it has the same screen shots with no explanation of the icons.
This is pretty minor, but it's been bugging me for a while. Any explanation or reference to these icons would be appreciated!

Wow, impressive, thank you! Is there a listing or other resource available that can tell me what all these symbols mean? Or are they the only ones?
This Mac 101: Printing article mentions some of the icons you will see in 10.6. And there is also the Mac 101: Printing article for Lion that shows some symbols. Neither show the icon you are seeing for the Brother but this is icon has been around for a while and used for warnings/information alerts.

Icon next to Inbox is a "tildes", a squiggly line going horizontally

Tildes icon next to inbox in Mail, I clicked it, got prompted for password, it went away now.
Any idea what it was or why it was there?
Thank You!

Unusual icon next to User icon in Console One

Hi, I was hoping to locate a list of Novell icons for Console One, as I need to identify an icon which has appeared next to an existing user.
The existing user has the standard user icon, then a symbol which looks like a few dots circling anti-clockwise to an arrow.
I can't work out how to paste or attach an image to this post, but the icon is roughly like a reverse refresh symbol.
When I view the same tree in iManager, this user doesn't appear at all, either when I search that OU or when I search from the root of the tree. Just wondering what is the status of this user account and why this icon.
Thanks, Nat

Going by your description I'm guessing this is an alias, meaning it is a
pointer to the real user. If you go to the Other tab in ConsoleOne I
think it'll show you the Object Class which is probably 'Alias'. This can
happen if you move an object and choose to leave an alias behind so that
references to the old DN still work.
Why would this show up in ConsoleOne but not iManager? Perhaps one
replicas has the object while others do not and it's a coincidence based
on which client (iMan/C1) hits which server. Query all servers via
iMonitor to see what they show respectively.
Good luck.

Adblock Plus icon won't stay where I put it

I have a customized toolbar with Toothless How to Train Your Dragon skin. After the address bar I have a TON of spaces, ok maybe not too many, but enough to keep the bar relatively small, but the Adblock Plus icon keeps reappearing to the far right side of all the "spaces" I have inserted. I keep customizing the toolbar and dragging it back to the left near the address bar and clicking the "done" button. Next time I reopen FF the icon is back on the right again, right on top of the graphic/skin.

I the cloud and itunes match. Some songs have the "waiting" icon next to them but are unable to upload and instead of determing them ineligible itunes continues to try to upload that song and never gets to the rest of the list.

I have icloud and itunes match and most of my songs have been uploaded to the cloud. Some songs still have the "waiting" icon next to them and when I turn itunes match on they neither upload nor are they determined ineligible. My computer will literally spin its wheels for hours trying to upload the same song. Additionally, I uploaded an audiobook disc on my computer and 3 of the 11 tracks are still waiting to be uploaded???

The exclamation mark 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 .
If the missing files just can't be found then, assuming you are in region where you are permitted multiple downloads of your audio purchases, delete the current enties and download again from your purchased history.

How can I get an item that has the broadcast icon next to it into MP3 format so I can put it on my ipod nano?

Question: how can I get an item in my itunes library, on my mac os 10.6.7 that has a broadcast icon next to it into MP3 format so I can play it on my ipod? right now it won't let me, and it's very frustrating!!!! thanks

I might have misunderstood what you mean by the "broadcast icon," but if you are talking about an audio stream, then there is just no way you can convert a stream to MP3. What this would involve is either recording the stream, and then you would just be replaying the recorded audio on your iPod (is this what you are trying to achieve?), or reading the stream directly on your iPod, which an iPod nano does not support (it would need wireless connectivity).
Hope this helps

I have a song on my ipod touch I can't get rid of. Even if I uncheck the artist and re-sync the file still is showing. It has a weird circle with a stop icon next to the file.

I also tried to manually manage the music files and removed them all from my ipod. But the file still remains. It only is appearing on my ipod touch, it does not show in itunes. And when I add the file that shows in itunes, it shows up twice. One is normal and the other has that stop button icon next to it. Please help.

You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

An event in one of my libraries no longer has the event icon next to it's name just the name only. I can't view the clips in the event or import new clips. I've tried deleting the event and nothing.

an event in one of my libraries no longer has the event icon next to it's name in the browser just the name only. I can't view the clips in the event or import new clips. I've tried deleting the event and nothing. After control clicking the event it shows all the media that has been previously imported. But it does not allow anything to be done to the event including deleting. This showed up at the beginning of a normal import session. This is fortunately the back-up evant.

Did you perhaps mess with the contents of the library in the Finder?
