ADE is capitalizing my user name and I can't use ADE on existing books

I have used ADE for a number of years on my desktop computer. I use it with a Kobo reader which has been authorized with ADE. I bought a new computer, downloaded ADE, signed in with my ID (which is all lower case), and it authorized me using all Upper Case.This will not work with my existing ebooks on my reader as there is a mismatch. It will also not work with new books. I need to have one Adobe account, with my email address all in lower case letters, before I can read Adobe DRM protected books again.
FWIW, I have a very common name. And that name is my email address on gmail.com. On a number of occasions some other person with the same name has registered for various things using my address in error (or confusion). I believe this may haver happened here, with the difference between the two accounts being the capitalization.

I'm not sure how ADE usually handles capitalization: I have certainly managed with an all lowercase authorization to both ADE 1.7.2 and to ADE 2.0.
Here are a couple of things to try.
~~~ (1)
Sometimes ADE gets its registration/activation confused and in a semi-authorized state.
Unfortunately, it often then gives misleading error messages about what is wrong.
A common incorrect message informs you that the ID is already in use on another computer and cannot be reused.
This can often be resolved by completely removing any authorization using ctrl-shift-D to the Library screen on ADE (cmd-shift-D if on Mac).
Restart ADE, and then reauthorize with your (old) Adobe ID.
~~~ (2)
There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0. Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.
(You can have them both installed at once if you like.)
Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

Welcome to the Apple community.
iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

I can't set up Time Machine---Help! What "User Name" and password do I use

I finally got the Time Capsule and installed Leopard, but now that I'm trying to set up Time Machine, it's asking for a user name and password. I've entered the admin user name and password to my computer with no luck, then tried the name of the Time Capsule and the password for that, no luck there either. What the heck is it looking for? Thank you for any help you can give me!!!!

Hey, I got left and right confused late one night No problem.
I mentioned it only because I once used that software and only because I checked it before upgrading to Leopard did I realize it didn't work too well, even with Tiger.
LaCie makes great hardware, but in the software area they are a bit soft.

Changed user name and now can't sign in -HELP!

I just wanted to change my user name, so I went to accounts and just changed that, not the password or anything else...I restarted my computer and now I can't sign in with the new OR the old...what can I do?

I followed these steps:
Resetting the original administrator account password
Follow these steps to reset a password when there is only one administrator account on the computer, or if the original administrator account (of several) needs a password reset. "Original" administrator account refers to the one that was created immediately after installing Mac OS X. If the original administrator password is known, the original administrator user may reset the passwords of other administrator accounts using the steps described above.
Start up from a Mac OS X Install CD (one whose version is closest the the version of Mac OS X installed). You should first disable Open Firmware password protection, if it is enabled. Hold the C key as the computer starts.
Choose Reset Password from the Installer menu (or Utilities menu in Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger). Tip: If you don't see this menu or menu choice, you're probably not started from the CD yet.
Select your Mac OS X hard disk volume.
Set the user name of your original administrator account.
Important: Do not select "System Administrator (root)". This is actually a reference to the root user. Do not confuse it with a normal administrator account.
Enter a new password.
Click Save.

What is User flag and how can i use it with the mails?

Hi.
i do wana know what is meant by user flag and how it is different from System flag.?
can i use user flag to distinguish the mail. in my application?
Thanks,

System flags are defined by the IMAP spec and every server has to support them.
User flags are defined by the application. Different IMAP servers may have different
limitations on user flags.

User Name and Password pop up using OutLook

Happens intermitently, OutLook will not communicate with Verizons email servers on my Windows 7 AMD 64 laptop.
My wife's Windows 7 64bit happens less. My daughters desktop Windows 8 started happening today.
Ran the Verizon OutLook checker down load. It failed when trying to send/recieve email.
recieve error (0X80042108) send error (0X80042109)
This happened last year.... then went away.
I am assuming it is "your" problem. Our internet connection does appear to be having issues.
Suggestions?????

Hope Attachment also works for you.

What is the default user name and password for oracle databse 10g

Hi: gurus, I just recently installed the oracle 10g personal edition and trying to log on to the enterprise manger, but can't figure it out the user name and password, can some one help me and tell me what is the default user name and password to logon to the oracle instance. BTW during the installation I choose two passowrds one for the schema and one for the global database orcl. I wonder will I be using one of these passwords. Still I don't have any clue for the "User Name".
thanks

system/manager and sys/change_on_install are still valid default passwords when database is manually created. If DBCA was used, passwords will be those defined at creation time inside DBCA.
In case passwords have been forgotten, those can be reset:
From an OS commnad prompt, set ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_HOME and PATH environment variables, just to make sure you are pointing to the right Oracle Home installation, and issue:
OS> sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> alter user sys identified by yourNewSysPassword;
SQL> alter user system identified by yourNewSystemPassword;
And you're done with it.

How to pass user name and password in openConnection method ?

Hi, Exports,
          I am trying to post data from applet to another application which is
          protected by network password.
          How to pass user name and password when I use openConnection method? In java
          doc, this method looks like do not accept these two parameters.
          Thanks
          ----- my code in applet ---------
          URL url = new URL("http://127.0.0.1/xml/index.cfm");
          URLConnection connection = url.openConnection();
          connection.setDoInput(true);
          connection.setDoOutput(true);
          connection.setUseCaches(false);
          connection.setAllowUserInteraction(false);
          DataOutputStream dos = new DataOutputStream(connection.getOutputStream());
          dos.writeBytes("POST " + path + " HTTP/1.0\r\n");
          dos.writeBytes("Referer: http://127.0.0.1/XML/index.cfm\r\n");
          dos.writeBytes("Content-Type:

          dos.close();


you need to negotiate Authentication in ur applet code...
          For example:
          If u r using Form based auth u need to send Post a request with j_user_name &
          j_password to the action j_security_check. and when server returns back the
          cookie
          u need to hold it and pass that cookie to the each and every request made to the
          protected application.
          Basically u need to imitate the browser.

JNDI user name and password

Case 1, for a NON-JNDI based database connection:
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, "username", "password");
Case 2, for a JNDI based database connection:
Context context = new InitialContext();
DataSource dataSource = (DataSource) context.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/test");
Connection conn = dataSource.getConnection();
Notice that for NON-JNDI based database connection, the username and password are specified. But for the
JNDI based database connection, there is no username and password specified. How come? If I want to specify the username and password for JNDI based connection, how can I do it?
Thanks
Scott

Though your example shows using a jndi file, you user name is actually hard coded.There's no such thing as a "jndi file". The username is not hard coded because that's not code, it's a configuration file.
I believe my original question is how to use JNDI with the user name and password.The username and password are always the same. You have one set of those for the database, for all the users in your application. The only situation where that might differ is for example a testing server or development server having a different username and password.
They would have their own configuration files then.
The user name and password can be dynamically retireved and set for each authorized user on the fly.Authorization is a different beast. This (your code) is about getting database connections through a DataSource object.

TS3276 Cannot send mail from my iPad...."user name and or password is incorrect"......mail can be sent from my iPhone

Why do I get the message "Cannot send mail, the user name and or password for my email outgoing server is incorrect"? I use the same account, etc. on my iPhone and haven't any trouble sending mail.

If your email requires a password for the SMTP server you can set it up in the settings in the General mail setup. Some i.e Gmail require a password for SMTP.
Otherwise you will probably get better answers in the iPad forum.

I realize that the min req. call for 2 gb of ram so i've got an order in for another dimm to put into the machine. Thanks for your suggestions.
@ a_brody > Yes. The machine was plugged into a power source. The disk promts you to do that and i recall aspect this form other installs. Thanks for the reminder tho! ( btw your second post is like greek to me man!)
@ Kuncklesmac > You're right about Snow Leopard being an upgrade from Leopard. I'm aware of this. And yes previously i've been told by Apple that I needed the Box Set (not the family pack. i am using the family pack for OS Snow Leopard) to upgrade my 10.4.11 mac - they never mentioned adding ram but i figured that out on my own and an apple specialist recommended it when i purchased Snow Leopard and confirmed that I coul duse the Snow Leopard to upgarde from Tiger (10.4.11). I've also read extensively (as i said above) that it isn't necessary (always) to buy the box set. Several 10.4.11 users report having upgraded using the Snow Leopard upgrade disk only (not the Box Set) without trouble on intel macs (also see the apple link i posted). So i'm just ondering how they did it and i cannot.
Thanks fo rall yor help!

User name and passwords autofill

user name and passwords autofill only autofills the user name and not the password. Any ideas on how to change this so that passwords are also autofilled?

Hi Geoffrey
Some web sites (particularly banks, credit card companies) specifically code their sites to prevent the password from automatically appearing. This is due to security concerns.
Notwithstanding the above, It's possible there's oddities in the Keychain file. This file retains your User Name/Password information. In your Finder: Applications>Utilities folder. Open Keychain Access. Go to the Keychain Menu>Keychain First Aid>Repair. If any errors appear rerun until you get a clean pass.
If the lack of auto-fill continues, there is a workaround for the web coding via 3rd party Safari add-on (shareware) SAFT. In SAFT's Misc. preference file settings (part of the Safari Preferences) is "Auto-complete always on".
Note: some of the more elaborate security sign-ons, such as those that use multiple pages for the sign-in are not overridden by the SAFT feature.
