I cannot seem to change my account picture on OS 10.8. There is not option to "edit picture"

Under system preferences >  users and groups, i click on my account picture but there is no "edit picture" selectable. I can only choose the max default pictures or take a snapshot. How do I go about doing it? Is this a bug? Thanks!
Norm

Not sure what you think you mean by "edit".
You can drang-and-drop a new picture into the well.
You can hit the Delete key to remove the pictiure after clicking on it.
You can click the downward pointing arrow, choose Recent, and then press the pencil button to change the zoom or centeringi of the existing picture.

  • Getting Problem In Changing The Account Picture.

    No button is working. All the buttons on the screen are friezed. I have tried lot of ways but nothing is working.

    Hi,
    For this issue,the only thing I can think now is that your version of Windows isn't activated correctly.
    Can you check Control Panel\System and Security\Action Center\Windows Activation
    You can get here by right clicking in the lower left hand corner, choosing "System" then clicking "View details in Windows Activation"
    Meanwhile, please let us know your account. Local account or Microsoft account?
    If your system has been activated, and then the issue still persists, please try using Microsoft account to change the account picture.

    Assuming that you want help and that you aren't just copying-and-pasting that thread's title and posting a link to it, then have you tried the steps on the post that I linked to in my first reply on that thread ?
    If you don't get the 'none' option when trying those instructions then you will need to enter credit card details before you will be able to use the account - when you've entered credit card details you should get the 'none' option and be able to remove your card details.
    Or you can create a new account, and follow, exactly, the steps on this page when creating it' : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

    Hi..............I have a new Creative Cloud registration and have bought the new Dreamweaver CC but I cannot seem to down load it? My Creative Cloud has downloaded but not my new Dreamweaver CC?  I currently have the old Dreamweaver CS4 on my system! Can anyone help?

    The first thing you need to do is download and install the Creative Cloud Desktop Application. Then, open that program and click on the Apps tab. You download and install creative cloud applications from there.
    If your computer doesn't meet the minimum requirements to run a given program, it won't show up under the Apps tab.
    Once they are installed, you'll need to go to your Applications folder (Mac) or Program Files (x86) folder (PC) to start the program itself.

  • Change user account picture

    I have just purchased a Toshiba P755 and have tried to change the user account picture. This has turned out to be a major problem. I have created an additional administrator account to fix the problem, but even this did not work. I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
    The problem is, when I select a new user account picture and select the change  picture option, I get an error message: "This action cannot be performed due to an account restriction. Please contact your administrator."
    Unfortunately, I am the administrator.
    Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have never been able to change the picture.  ...  I was able to change it in Safe Mode.
    Maybe something you added before you first tried.
    Can you do it after booting clean?
       1. Open the System Configuration utility (msconfig.exe).
       2. On the General tab, click Selective startup and clear the Load startup items check box.
       3. On the Services tab, click the Hide all Microsoft services check box and click Disable all.
       4. OK out and restart the computer.

  • TS1672 I want to sync the 2 apple ids from my touch and ipad.  One of my email addresses is no longer valid but I cannot seem to change it.  Help

    hi, I have 2 apple IDs one for a touch and one for an ipad.  I would like to merge the two together but the first ID is connected to an email address I no longer use and cannot access.  Does anyone know how I can do this.  I get messages on my touch showing my old email address which I cannot alter.

    Try changing the password by using the security question answer vice respoonding to an email. See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE36
    When you can access the account yu can then change the email adddress.
    I no longer have an email address that was also my Apple ID. Can I still use the email address as my Apple ID?
    Apple recommends you change your Apple ID to your current, working email address. This will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address. See How to change the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
    Note: @mac.com and @me.com Apple IDs can not be renamed.  If you no longer use the .mac or .me email address be sure to add your valid email address as an additional email address.
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
    If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.
    If problems, contact iTunes.

  • Every since I have upgraded to IOS7, Words with Friends only displays in the portrait position.  Cannot seem to change it to landscape.  Can anyone help?

    Every since I have upgraded to IOS7 on my ipad, Words with Friends only displays in the portrait position.  I cannot get it to be landscape.  Can anyone help me out.  I have turned it off and started again and keep turning the ipad only to have it go to portrait in the opposite side.

    The "Use custom settings for history" selection allows to see the current history and cookie settings, but selecting this doesn't make any changes to history and cookie settings.
    Firefox shows "Use custom settings for history" as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made.
    If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".
    "Never Remember History" means that Private Browsing is active and "Always use private browsing mode" gets a checkmark.
    The default settings mean that cookies are enabled and thus should work.
    Did you try to delete the cookies from the bank site?

  • My iphone4/ ipad 1 will not let me update my apps after i changed my account to @me, My iphone4/ ipad 1 will not let me update my apps after i changed my account to @me

    I have an iphone 4 that I upgraded to ios5 and switched my user name to an @me.com user name. Now my phone doesn't let me update my apps, it says that my pass is incorrect, I've tried to reset my password and it's not going to my email, and the security question says that is incorrect! plz help

    Stop trying to put the same password in as the mobile me account and go into the Apps section of your library in itunes and right click an application, select get info and see what the email address is where it says account.
    Your apple id for the itunes store is likely a different address like a gmail or a hotmail.
    Look up the apple id by going to the find out link that is  on this webpage: http://appleid.apple.com

  • I cannot seem to sync via bluetooth with any other phone.  it says not capable.  what do i need to do?, i cannot seem to sync via bluetooth with any other phone.  it says not capable.  what do i need to do?

    i tried to sync my iphone with my old phone to transfer all the contacts over via bluetooth but it said that the phone is not sopported.  what do i need to do?  will i have this problems with alot of phones? is there another way i can transfer over the contacts.  thank you.

    The iPhone does NOT support Bluetooth synch to other phones.  You need to export your phone contacts to a computer to a program such as Address Book or Outlook and then synch those contacts to your iPhone using iTunes.

  • My family all use my iCloud account to backup their phones, meaning there is not enough space for me. How can we have seperate accounts without the risk of any of us having data/photos erased or lost?

    Hi. We have 4 iPads and 3 iPhones in our household. I have my own apple ID which my whole family use. This was fine until IOS6 came out, and I found I wasn't able to back up my phone because the rest of my family have used all my iCloud storage! We've now decided we all want seperate IDs and seperate iCloud accounts, but we're worried if we delete iCloud from any of the devices that it will also delete our apps, pictures, data etc. Can someone guide me along the right path here?
    Thanks
    Carly

    Yes....On each device, go under "Settings....iCloud" and DELETE ACCOUNT.  This doesn't do anything to the data itself...it just "disconnects" that device from that particular account.  Then each person/device can set up their own iCloud account for storage, backup, etc.  As was mentioned above, everyone can maintain the same Apple ID for App Store to share music purchases and such, but make sure the different iCloud accounts exist when you go to restore something or you'll have someone else's stuff or a big mix of everybody's.  Don't ask me how I know this.
