there are small white spots on the top part of the glass...is this something I should worry about? cider looks fine, no white spots on it, just the regular little bubbles.

I’m going to guess you used a dry yeast? I often see that in the necks of my glass carboys when I sprinkle dry yeast onto my wort. I’ll bet they’re just little semi-hydrated specks of yeast, and if so, no worries.
 
You shouldn't worry, because even if it is something bad there isn't much you can do for this batch of whatever.

So just leave it and see what your... cider tastes like when it's finished.
 
Next time use a funnel to put the yeast in. Keeps it away from the wet walls after transferring/cleaning. It also ensure it all goes in the fermenter and no half in the floor…been there.
