I want to download the new updates I think to the 10.9 but our mac was given to us and when it comes to the last page it asks for the user name and password but this mac was wiped clean. How do I find out this info so I can get iPhoto? To be honest I'm not even sure what type of Mac I have and don't know how to find out what kind it is
I'd also like to make address labels and don't know where to find that either
You would make address lables with the Contacts app.
If you don't have the user name and password used to set up the machine then you need to purchase the apps for yourself.

I switched from CenturyTel to Charter. I can't use Firefox because a box appears asking me for Authentication Required, User Name and Password. When I hit cancel, this message appears:
HTTP 401 - Unauthorized
Authorization is required to access the configuration server.
You must enter the correct username and/or password.
When I called Charter, they told me they recommended using Internet Explorer. I told them I didn't want IE, I preferred Firefox. They recommended I go to your support page, so here I am. :o)Have you reset the password recently for the email account?
A real simple fix usually is to delete the mail account (settings < mail contacts calendars, tap the affected account and choose delete at the bottom) Then re add the account. -

hi guys i have 2 ? 1 my daughters iphone is trying to update on my mac cant get it off help please ,,, 2 i have an old apple id and when i try to up date it keeps looking for the password how do i delete this old apple id help
Hi.
I had a similar problem myself. This is what helped me.
I went to the App store app, scrolled to the bottom, logged out of the account, re logged in with my Apple ID. Then went back to app updates. Once I put in my ID password all was fine. -
My iPad email says incorrect user name or password but it has always worked as it is set up
My iPad mail is not receiving mail. It says incorrect user name or password but it is the same as it has been since I got my iPad. The server connection is ok as I can get email through the internet.
Hi Barry,
This is a little odd, so from what you've said nothing has changed at all on your iPad?
Are you able to access your email account via webmail, for example I have a GMAIL account and can access this via www.gmail.com if so can you login there using the expected credentials?
Regards,

Itunes keeps asking me for a user name and password when I first open it.
I do not allow apple to access my library or my hard drive because you guys are predators, and I have NO interest in using the app store. I have disabled access to the store, so i do not know why it keeps asking me for a user name and password. You have NO right to see the music THAT I PURCHASED a loooooooooong time ago. It is my license. I should be able to play it whenever and wherever I like...and NO, I do not burn and copy my music. I just want to play it on MY MACHINES. So, I do not need your useless snooping, which is probably the reason you want me to log in. Who do you think you are? You didn't write the songs. You just sell licenses. Period. And I purchased mine, thank you. I no longer use your store for these reasons. I use Amazon.
Not control-R. Command-R. Shut the computer down. Reboot it. Hold down cmd-R when you hear the chime. Keep it held down and you should see the Lion recovery partition.

my ipod is disabled and when i connect it to itunes it says that i have to enter my password but i cant because there is no swipe bar so what do i do to fix this?
Connect in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to reset the passcode during this process:
iOS: Unable to update or restore and iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software. -

It is asking for a router name and password???
The sales person told me how easy this would be to set up..."just plug it in" he said...right. Anyhoo - I disconnected my ancient wireless router and put the cd in - started doing its thing and then it asks for a router name and password...the only name and password I have is from my old ancient router...how could it be the same? Where do I find this info? Thank you for any help!
Just go to the Linksys support site, find your router model and hardware version there, and download the User Guide or User Manual for your router, and there's all kinds of useful information there. I'm surprised that there isn't a "Quick Start" guide in with the router that gives basic instructions like go to 192.168.1.1 and then how to login to set up your router. But it is in the downloaded user manual for sure.

- How did you dlete stuff from the iPod? If you have a 1G or 2G iPod and deleted the stuff by going to Settings>Genera.>Reset>Erase aall contents and settings without being connected to a power source, the battery dies before he erase was comleted since it can take hour.
- In any event try the following:
- Connect to a chaging sour for three hours.
- Reset the iPod and then connect to the computer and try to restore va iTunes.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try placing the iPod in recovery moe and then try to restore. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Last try DFU made and restore.
