First off, symbols are usually pictures that don't use any words and occasionally a few letters to get an idea or thought across to the viewer quickly and easily. Symbols doesn't represent a company or association, but rather a simple message like: do not enter; you'll probably get yourself in a pickle if you do, 3.14159265389793238462 ect, or hey this will probably hurt you, so don't touch it.
Logos are similar to symbols in the sense that they tend to avoid words and sometimes letter, but logos are used very differently and in many different situations. They tend to represent an organization or company and cannot be used by anybody else like: a major coffee chain, a worldwide event, or an international fast food chain.
