I have locked myself out of my iPad and can not restore unless I go onto the iPad and turn off FindMyiPhone, how do I sort this out?
After installing iOS7 I was prompted to make a passcode, I did so and stupidly forgot and now continually am disabling my iPad, ways in which I have read you can sort this is restoring your iPad, however I can not restore without iTunes telling me I need to go onto the iPad and turn off FindMyiPhone! How else can I sort this? It is logged into my apple account and everything! This is an iPad 2 also ASAP help!!
Hello shanefox,
This can be done by logging in at iCloud.com and removing your device via the Find My iPhone web interface.

When I try to run my keynote presentation through a projector, it fails to fun as desired and instead show the "Rehearse Slideshow" view instead. How do I sort this out?
I believe you need to go into System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement so the image you want appears on the projector.

The sentimental pics on here can't be replaced cuz they are of my son and his best friend Scooter, his dog. We moved and couldn't keep him so I had to take him to the Humane Society where he was adopted. I have tried to get the info of the new family that has him, but of course for privacy issues, they won't give it to me. So now that you know how desperate I am, please is there ANY way that I can restore the ipad without knowing the code? My son is heartbroken already at loosing him, but if I can't restore the ipad, he will loose all the pics that he has of him. I can verify any and all info of the purchase or anything that would need verified.
I did try to get help by going into the local Apple store. However, I was told that the only way to get it working again, now that I am locked out it, is to get on itunes and do a complete factory reset. This of course would fix the locked out issue but I would loose all the pics.

Help, I have locked myself out of my macbook air and there seems to be no way back on.
I have literally just got my first mac computer today (a macbook air) having previously been a PC user. Needless to say, I am not familiar with how to use them at all and am pulling my hair out here trying to work out why I have been locked out after just 5 minutes of using it.
I guess there must have been a setting on it to automatically log me out after a certain amount of time as I left my computer for a while before returning and came back to a login screen. It is now prompting me for a password to get back into my mac - even though I didn't even set one! When I click the ? button, it says i should go to appleid.apple.com to reset it from another device, but I have tried this and all it allows me to do is reset my Appleid - not my computer password. (By the way, have also tried typing in appleid password with no luck.)
Has anyone got any tips? I have tried running multiple internet searches across the forums and have found nothing even remotely close to helping me. It seems so ridiculous for something so simple - especially as i never even set a password!!!
Any help much appreciated - I am on the verge of throwing this machine across the room and I've only just got it.Did you purchase your MacBook Air new? Do you still have its box? Locate its serial number and telephone Apple at the number shown at the bottom of this page (1-800-MY-APPLE if you're in the U.S.). They can help you.

I can't remember my password and I think I have locked myself out.
I was sick for several days and was on medication that made me forgetful. I tried to log in to my email account and I think I used several different passwords because I could not remember mine, or I typed in errors. Now I am not able to log in and get my emails since October 23 or 24. I need to get my emails, and I need to reset my password.
Contact your email provider about resetting your password. Thunderbird has nothing to do with administering email passwords.
Go to your providers help page and look for a link to to reset your password. -
