I am unable to send or receive emails, when I go into settings I have forgotten my password but I don't know how I can change it, or is it the same password used for my appleID

Thanks, someone else told me yahoo is an issue. No, not the fan itself is what I'm asking, but the dots preceding it. Sometimes there are 3 up, sometimes 4, sometimes 2. Just wondered if they are the signal strength. I should actually walk in different parts of the house and see if they change in different rooms.

I forgot my password to my mac book and don't know how to reset it in the security privacy field

i forgot my password to my mac book and don't know how to reset it in the privacy security field, can anyone help? Thank you.

Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Reset Password. After resetting the password use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for startup and restart.

I lost my iWeb password and don't know how to retrieve it.

How can I retrieve my iWeb password?

Hey Eth. The password I'm referring to is on the Site Publishing Settings page, in the FTP Server Settings section.The password is there now, but in 'dots.' I just don't know what it is. I would like to retrieve it in case I ever loose it.

Had an email address and don't know how to get back to it

I used to get emails on firefox as well as at another email address. I would like to have it again but I don't remember how I got on it or what my information was. My present email will go off now every single time I try to send a message.

Entered wrong wireless password and don't know how to change it

I recently switched to a Macbook Pro from a PC and attempted to connect to my 2Wire home wireless network on it. Unfortunately, I entered the password wrong on the secured network, and now the computer regularly tries to connect automatically to the internet with this incorrect password that it has saved, and I have NO idea how to get in there and change it. I have tried all I can think of with my limited knowledge of Macs. It will not connect to the internet, therefore, on my home network but does work on other networks.
Can someone please tell me where to go/how to access the saved password so I can delete it and change it? Also, whenever I click on the assistance button it always asks me whether I have a DHCP or PPPoE connection...and I have no idea what this means. The DHCP option leads me to the point where it says I cannot be assisted, and the PPPoE option takes me to a page where it asks for the network name and password, but when I enter it correctly it gives me no indication of the result of typing it in...it just reroutes me back to the page that asks me to choose between PPPoE and DHCP. A.K.A. it is NO help at all.
And I don't understand what it means when it asks me to "save password in keychain." What is a keychain??? I'm a Mac idiot. I can troubleshoot all this stuff with a PC but am completely lost with my new Mac.
Thanks-

Keychain access is in the Utilities folder in Applications. The network password is in the "System" section. Unlock the chain, select the item corresponding to your network and click the "-" button. Then go back and set up the connection again.

I have a telus email acct on my ipad air and don't know how to set a group. Can anyone help? Thanks

I am new to Apple and just bought an ipad air. I have a Telus email acct and don't know how to set up a group. Can anyone help me? Thanks

There isn't anything in contacts that has "create a group" . That's why this is so frustrating. I've tried creating a new contact and dragging names into it - doesn't work. I can't find anything that helps!!! What am I missing?

I changed my apple id email because I needed a more recent email and forgot my old password, now I need to sign out of my old Apple Id and don't know how. Help???

I changed my apple Id email because I needed a more recent email and forgot my old password, now I need to sign out of my old Apple Id and don't know how. Help???

Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

Me and my partner are currently using the same apple id and have no space left on our devices. We are currently waiting on the iphone 6 plus to arrive and don't know how to transfer all data to the new phones.

Me and my partner are currently using the same apple id and have no space left on our devices. We are currently waiting on the iphone 6 plus to arrive and don't know how to transfer all data to the new phones.?

I don't know if I'm asking this all in a way that can be understood? Thanks ED3K, however that part I do understand (in the link you provided!)
What I need to know is "how" I can separate or rather create another Apple ID for my son-who is currently using "my Apple ID?" If there is a way to let him keep "all" his info on his phone (eg-contacts, music, app's, etc.) without doing a "reset?') Somehow I need to go into his phone's setting-create a new Apple ID and possibly a new password so he can still use our combined iCloud & Itunes account?
Also then letting me take back my Apple ID & password, but again allowing us (my son and I) to use the same iCloud & Itunes account? Does that make more sense??? I'm sincerely trying to get this cleared up once and for all----just need guidance from someone who has a true understanding of the whole Apple iCloud/Itunes system!
Thanks again for "anyone" that can help me!!!

I've got OSX/Genieo.A virus on my mac and don't know how to get rid of it and why I have it

I've got OSX/Genieo.A virus on my mac and don't know how to get rid of it and w I have it

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You installed the "Genieo" malware. The product is a fraud, and the developer knowingly distributes an uninstaller that doesn't work. I suggest the procedure below to disable Genieo. This procedure may leave a few small files behind, but it will permanently deactivate the malware (as long as you never reinstall it.)
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Frameworks/GenieoExtra.framework
Right-click or control-click the line and select
          Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.
If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
A folder should open with an item named "GenieoExtra.framework" selected. Move that item to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your administrator password.
Move each of these items to the Trash in the same way:
/Applications/Genieo.app
/Applications/Reset Search.app
/Applications/Uninstall Genieo.app
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.update.plist
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.engine.plist
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client.plist
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client
/usr/lib/libgenkit.dylib
/usr/lib/libgenkitsa.dylib
/usr/lib/libimckit.dylib
/usr/lib/libimckitsa.dylib
~/Library/Application Support/com.genieoinnovation.Installer
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.download.plist
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.update.plist
If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those listed above, move them as well. Some of these items will be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
Restart and empty the Trash. Don't try to empty the Trash until you have restarted.
Step 2
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including ones called "Genieo" or "Omnibar," and any that have the word "Spigot" or "InstallMac" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Your web browser(s) should now be working, and you should be able to reset the home page and search engine. If not, stop here and post your results.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install this trojan. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad has a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If youever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that this Internet criminal has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
Finally, be forewarned that when Genieo is mentioned on this site, the attacker sometimes shows up under the name "Genieo support." He will tell you to run a fake "uninstaller." As he intends, the uninstaller does not completely remove the malware, and is in fact malware itself.
