Does anyone know what the half-moon symbol is please next to the clock display on the iphone 4S? There is nothing on the apple website about this.
Thanks,

You should reread post you responded to. Then you would notice:
Did you really just join Apple Support Communities solely to criticize some other person who was being helpful? And with an UNhelpful post, at that?
It don't matter when it was posted if I am just seeing it recently. The whole point to having things online. Second above settings in notifications is VPN. I do not care what it was five years ago I needed an answer that day. if I was an expert iphone user i wiuldn't be here would I? Did you really just go on a whole rant based on a sentenece that a complete stranger wrote? Say cheese

The half moon symbol shows when the "Do not disturb" function is on.
This iOS 6 function turns off all sounds/vibrations (and I think it prevents the software from automatically activating the screen) in a pre-set time period so as to not disturb you.
The toggle is under "settings", just above "Notifications". To set the times, go into "Settings" ---> "Notifications", where it is the first menu item in the list.
Thank you. It is a pity that the new IOS6 software appears to default to this mode. I have been wondering all week why I have missed calls that I have not heard! Now I know and have turned the thing off. Easy once you know how!
Thanks again
Your welcome. The same thing happened to me.
I don't think it is the default setting for iOS6. Tt is, however, on the newly added slide up toolbar along with blutooth, wifi, and airplane mode. It's very easy to accidentally turn it on when you are trying to slide the menu down. That what happened to me and I was missing calls/texts for 3-4 days...
