  • How do I reset Apple Mail to Factory Settings?

    How do I reset Apple Mail to factory settings? I had 7 emails accounts on there and was about to add my school email address. It wasn't going through though, so I went to the school's IT department to ask them to do it. Unfortunately, the IT guy couldn't fix the school email and worse, now ALL my emails accounts won't go online. They all have exclamation points to their right, and are constantly asking for passwords. No matter how many times I put in the right password, it still keeps asking for it. I tried fixing it from Mail Preferences and System Preferences but nothing works. It keeps saying Connection Error. I don't know what the IT guy tweaked but it messed up everything.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The "Guest User" login created by "Find My Mac" is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.

  • Hi,we have had to reset our pc to its factory settings and i can no longer sync my ipod when i purchase a song.

    Hi,
    we have had to reset our pc to its factory setting and i can no longer sync my ipod when i buy a song? can anyone help? cheers.

    Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately this has not worked. I didn't have quicktime to begin with so I don't know if that makes a difference? After following the instructions, I get the "registry keys missing" problem appear again (which I've subsequently fixed again) and then when I connected the ipod I got the following message - 'Device driver software was not successfully installed'.
    I've tried windows update but this doesn't do anything as '...the service is not running'.
    Any suggestions?

  • How can i reset Bridge CS6 to its default settings?

    Hello,
    i have a problem with Bridge CS6. Somehow its very slow and lags. when i tried to open a folder it takes sometimes several minutes before anything happens. is there a way to reset bridge to its default settings without reinstalling?
    Thanks

    What OS?
    It is probably either a full HD or too large of a cache.  You should have 10-20% free space on HD.  You can purge cache in edit/preferences/cache.
    If you have cache exported to folders also this will not purge it.  Have to go to Tools/cache/purge cache for xxx folder.

  • I'm wanting to restore Safari to its factory settings but my Safari doesn't show the "Restore Safari" button for me to do that. How do I restore Safari back to its factory settings?

    I'm wanting to restore Safari on my computer back to its factory condition but, for some odd reason, Safari is not showing me the "Restore Safari" button on my computer. Can anyone help me in this dilemma?

    Safar 8
    Apple removed "Reset Safari" menu option in Safar 8.
    In it's place there is "Clear History and Website Data".
    You can use that option.
    Best.

    Tammy,
    Unfortunately your iPhone is just a paper weight. Return it to the pawn shop for a refund.
    iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7 explains the "Buyer Beware" facts:
    When purchasing an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from someone other than Apple or an authorized Apple reseller, it is up to you to ensure that the device has been erased and is no longer linked to the previous owner’s account.
    Follow each of these steps to make sure that you can use the device you purchase:
    Turn the device on and slide to unlock.If the passcode lock screen or the home screen appears, the device has not been erased. Ask the seller to completely erase the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been erased.
    Begin the device setup process.After choosing a language, choosing a country, and connecting to a network, the device will begin activation. If you are asked for the previous owner’s Apple ID and password, the device is still linked to their account. Hand the device back to the seller and ask them to enter their password. If the previous owner is not present, they can remove the device from their account by signing in toicloud.com/find. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been removed from the previous owner’s account.
    You will know that a device is ready for you to use when you are asked to “Set up your iPhone", “Set up your iPad", or “Set up your iPod” during the device setup process.

  • How do I reset an IPad 2 to factory settings without access to itunes account?

    I bought a used IPad 2 from a rent to own store. When the Ipad was returned to store, the customer service rep did not check to see if Ipad was functioning properly and that customer info had been deleted off Ipad to protect that persons info that may be on it. We found out after I purchased, that it wasn't done. After checking their records, they had a hard time getting in contact with customer for either payment or returning item. After 6 months of no contact, he returned ipad. The customer left the passcode on it. From what I can tell, their info/apps/programs are still on it. The store has made numerous attempts to contact customer to get passcode so it can be reset to factory. But no luck. Part of the reason I haven't returned to store is I bought the Ipad while living in Canada. I am now in US. I would like to use it. Returning it is an option. and getting a full refund. Just a little more hassle to deal with.
    Is there a way to reset Ipad to Factory settings without passcode on lock screen, or without itunes that it may or may not have been synced to? I do NOT want to have access to any information that the previous owner had on it.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!

    If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it. Your best bet is to return the iPad, get a refund and purchase a new iPad from a reputable source.
