As soon as I login with iChat, I get an error from MobileMe!
Hey, I've had this issue for a while, and my work around for it was just not using iChat. However, I want to use iChat now so I need a proper resolution. Now I have mobile me with my [email protected] address, and I have my iChat account with [email protected] (created before my MM subscription).
When I log into iChat for the first time, within minutes I get an error from MobileMe saying "You've entered an incorrect password for MobileMe, please try again"... I didn't do anything though.
If I go to MobileMe in System Preferences, it says: "Your password has changed. Enter your new password.
If you have not changed (or reset) your password contact MobileMe support."
If I enter my password in and get that fixed, the next time I start up iChat it says: "Your login ID or password is incorrect"... soo I'm confused.
The password for my @me and @mac addresses are different, is it possible they are sharing the same keychain? I do have the check box ticked to remember the password.
Any idea's?
Hi,
I would not repair at this time.
In the list of password you should find the one for iChat Or possibly several for iChat if you have different Account/Screen Names list by their Account names.
Double click on the one that is causing you issue.
In the new window that pops up put a tick in the Password Box. You will probably have to confirm with your Admin Password to Allow Once.
Does this show the right password ?
If not change the Password.
If it does then click the Access Tab and see if iChat is Allowed (Or Allow All is being used)
Either change to Allow All or add iChat to the List.

When I sync my iPhone with iTunes I get an error message that says "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone" How do I fix this?
I had the same problem. I found this site http://itprokb.blogspot.com/2010/10/itunes-could-not-sync-calendars-to.html
It worked for me. Good luck! -
I recently started to get an error message "MobileMe Services have stopped working". I use Vista. If I remove the MobileMe program, will it affect syncing with my iPhone or with Google Calendar?
No, just uninstall the MobileMe control panel. All Mobileme services have been discontinued, so the control panel is not doing you any good being in there at present.

Hey joshuafromisr,
If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
or here:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

Whenever I try to sync my iPod Touch 5th gen with iTunes I get an error message saying "The iPod "*****" could not be synced because the sync session failed to start". Is there any way I can fix this?
B-rock, thanks for posting the above. I actually have the same issue, running Windows XP and I don't have that backup location, \Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\. When I go to Documents and Settings\(username)\ there's a AppData folder followed by:\LocalLow\DataMngr\ .
I have the latest update, 5.0.1 and I have the iPod Touch 3rd gen.
I have tried removing itunes and all that is associated with it then reinstalling and keep getting the same message. I've reset my ipod thinking that would help but still, no backup.
In iTunes, Edit, Preference, Device there are no backups.
What am I doing wrong, can you help?
Thank you! -
I have Os Lion on my mac book pro, im not a fan of this because i cant run many games, i have the disk for snow leopard my machine came with but i get a error saying "unable to unmount disc" when i try erase my hard drive i just want OS SL back any help?
many thanks Carl.You must boot from another drive in order to erase the system drive.
Try starting up with Snow Leopard DVD inserted and C depress. That should get you booted from the DVD. Then start Disk Utitlity from DVD and erase the disk then you should be able to install Snow Leopard.
Remember that everything will be removed from the disk when you erase it and install Snow Leopard so backup first.

}Now it works
i will try to explain how i do this :
step 1 )
fallow this guide http://www.cit.cornell.edu/computer/system/win2000/kerberos/
and configure AD to use kerberos and to heve Kerberos REALM
step 2 ) try windows login to the new realm to be sure that it works ADD trusted realm if needed.
step 3 ) create jaas.conf file for example in c:\
it looks like this :
ISY {
com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule required
debug=true;
};step 4)
( dont forget to make mappings which are explained in step 1 ) go to Active Directory users make sure from View to check Advanced Features Right click on the user go to mappings in secound tab kerberos mapping add USERNAME@KERBEROSreaLm for example [email protected]
step 5)

}It will ask for username and password
type for example : [email protected] for username

where ISY.LOCAL is the name of kerberos realm.
p.s. it is not good idea to use Administrator as login :)

JAAS Login Module development/deployment - getting en error
Guys,
I have developed a JAAS Login Module (as per the SAP documentation) and configured the J2EE Engine (as per the SAP documentation) for this module to sit amongst several other standard modules, but I have a problem. I am unable to get the Module working on one portal instance and I am getting an error in the default.trc file when the server restarts after SDM deployment.
The error is: "cannot load login module class....... java.lang.ClassNotFoundException........"
The whole thing works on another instance of EP6 SP16,17 and 18..... however it does not work on this one completely separate instance (there probably are configuration difference between these instances!)
Im not quite sure, given this set of circumstances, what could be causing the Login Module not to load. Which part of the configuration of the J2EE engine should I look in, something perhaps overlooked in the documentation?
Thanks
AdrianWith some help I have now solved this.
In the properties tab of Security Provider, the reference to your login module in the classloader needs to be prefixed with library:~<provider>. For the default SAP example the provider in com.sap...... or whatever you have changed it to. -
How ias integrate with Snacktory for getting main text from an html page
Hi All,
i am new to endeca and ias, i have an requirement, need to get main text from whole html page before ias save text to Endeca_Document_Text property,
as ias save all text in page to endeca_document_text property, it is not ok for reading when show in web page, i use an third party API to filter out the main text from original page,
now i want to save these text to endeca_document_text property,
an another question,
i get zero page when doing the logic of filtering main text from original html text in ParseFilter( HTMLMetatagFilter implements ParseFilter) using Snacktory.
if only do little things, it will work fine, if do more thing, clawer fail to crawl page. any one know how to fix it.

Can someone maybe point a page containing info on the HTML toolkit for me?It's called the API. Since you are using the HTMLEditorKit and an ElementIterator and an AttributeSet, I would start there.
There is no such API that says "get me all the links", so you have to do a little work on your own.
Maybe you could use a ParserCallback and every time you get a new tag you check for the "href" attribute. -
I've been getting this error for two weeks. I've tried rebooting the computer, resetting my network connection, and double-checking my password. The chat function works fine on my iPad and iPhone, just not on my computer. I have OS X 10.8.4 running on a MacBook Pro.
Any help GREATLY appreciated.
SuzanneI have encountered the same problem as Wildwing today on my iMac. Facetime was working fine last week, but at lunch time today when my son tried to call he could not get through, although I was sitting at my iMac compiling an email at the time. Fortunately however I have an iPad Mini, which I heard ringing in another room so I picked up the call on that.
I have noticed that if I go to the FaceTime tool bar, Preferences is greyed out.
I have tried to sign in again but keep getting this message : 'The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later.'
I have checked the outage on Support System Status, Apple is not reporting any problems. I have logged on to Apple ID and re-verified both of my Apple IDs (I use a different one for iTunes) and had no difficulty accessing my Apple ID on either account on my current passwords.
Messages which is set up with the same Apple ID as Facetime is working fine on my iMac and both Facetime and Messaes are fine on my Mini.
I have had two Apple IDs for ages, which has never caused a problem before although I am wondering if this is the issue.
Taking the 'try again later' literally, I have been trying that on and off since lunch time and I have rebooted my computer, I am still getting the same Error message.
I am at a loss to know what to do next. Help please -

Using SMTP I can not use a mail server with more than 13 characters. I get an error from TCP open
I have no trouble sending an email if the mail server name is less than 13 characters long. I get an error 54 from TCP open when it exceeds that length. How do I get around this?
Don't know what to say, I just tried the SMTP email VI I have with an 18-character mail server address and everything worked fine. The error 54 means that the address is ill-formed.
The only thing I would suggest is trace the mail-server address down through the hierarchy and make sure nothing is done to modify it. Also try putting a probe on the wire going into the TCP open function and make sure the string you see there is the same one you are using. Finally, change the formatting of the control taking the address into the subvi that contains the TCP open function (SMTP Open Session.vi)to show the slash codes and make sure some invisible characters aren't getting added along the way.
As a last resort save the vi in 6.0 format and send it to me and I'll
try it on my system--maybe there's something screwy going on with your computer...

Can't login with gdm and get error message
Hey, I had an arch install up and running last night. I was tinkering with gnome themes, and installed a bunch and eventually tried to mess with the login screen. I installed something, I think like gnome-settings-manager or something like that, and it basically never worked. I tried to change the login BG and some stuff, but couldn't do it, the program would freeze.
About an hour later, I realized chrome wouldn't run, and I had to use the default browser. I restarted and then when I logged back in, I have a black login screen with an error that says "Install Problem: the configuration defaults for gnome power manager have not been installed correctly please contact your computer administrator."
When I try to login, it starts like it's going to work, but then brings me back to the same screen.
So basically I can't login at the moment, I tried pacman -Runs gnome gdm gnome-setting-manager gamin gksu
and then pacman -S gnome gdm gksu gamin
but that still gives me the same screen.
Any ideas where to go from here?
Edit: Decided to install KDE as a workaround, I'll see where that gets me, opening a new thread as my root partition is now full... and IDK how to fix that atm

You could try to create another user and see if it works well, just to understand if it's a problem in the user configuration files, or in the system configuration.
If the new user works well you could try to import your config files from your /home/user/ folder one by one and see which one messes up everything.
If the new user has the same problems, it's a more serious problem, maybe you could try to remove packages one by one (pacman -Rscn package), starting from the last one you installed (you can list packages by installation date using yaourt -Qe --date) until it works again (taking care of not removing essential packages).

Can I run Exchange 2013 Schema more than once
I have started in installing Exchange 2013. I ran schema update using the Exchange 2013 RTM. Should I go ahead and install Exch2013 RTm and just run the updates afterwards or should I run schema update again using the Exch2013 SP1 setup.exe?
