Can Anyone help with log in please

Hello anyone out there,
Please bear with me as I am probably your ultimate dummies here.
I am at my wit's end trying to log on into my MacBook Pro 10.6.8. I'd started with when I bought a domain name and creating my blog which probably resulted in my Mac having direct access to my domain name database, as I started to see file folder that I don't remember saving. In the process, I somehow managed to get myself locked out of my Mac because of (what I guess) is changing my password and key chain access very late in the night with a not very bright state of mind :(
So when I tried logging in the next time I got locked out. I look around support pages and follow instruction on installing with the original, it doesn't helped that i thought I looked into the wrong start up page intended for Lion. Reading some more I tried restarting again with the original disc that comes with it, with no luck, screen shake when trying to log in. I brought it to my local Apple shop, the guy there couldn't help at the time but offered me to come back the next day so to install it with Fire Wire.
When I came back home that night, I managed to log in back to my page (although I was doing the exact same step before with no luck). I was then able to use it although some screen preview behaved differently. Oh the very same night, I had also dropped my Mac (and my heart) but with what i think is no further damage other than cosmetic. I also see that my root folder storing many html files loaded probably from sites i visited during the website creation. Instead of just clearing cache and changing browser preview to firefox (as I seem to understand now) I had again got my self locked out! Reading support pages, I log in using Cmd+S and follow instruction i found on community page, and did this:
:/ root# /sbin/fsck -fy
at the end it says The Volume Macintosh was repaired successfully
Then i typed mount -uw (it says illegal option)
Then i type /sbin/fsck -fy again thinking perhaps i type mount -uw too early.
now it says /dev/rdisk0s2 (hfs) EXITED WITH SIGNAL 8
:/ root#
Question is: what do i do from here?
Thank you so much for anyone who spare time to enlighten me, oh my brain hurts...

For you I think it's best to take your machine to a local PC/Mac tech support and/or have someone in person assist you with your needs.
We can only assist those who can assist themselves and it appears your machine needs to be looked over for hardware problems from the fall, then software problems, then finally finding out what your doing and what needs to be done to arrive there.
It's all way too much for us here to handle as we can't even see your machine, so we have to go by what your saying and it appears your just searching around and entering unknown and possibly dangerous things via root user without understanding what your doing.
So do that and let someone assist you in person as it's best for you.
Good Luck.

  • Can anyone help with string manipulation please?

    I am trying to change this string 43180-1-0001-37 into the following expression 43181-0001-37
    It is a string for Project No + Job Phase + Drawing No + Item No.
    The reduction of '43180' to '4318' is causing me the problem, I have the concatenation.
    Current report code is
    SELECT Os.[Orderno-o] As 'Order Number'
    ,Ph.PH_PHASE_NO + '.' + Re.REQUISITION_NUMBER As 'Req. Number'
    ,Pl.ID As 'Item ID'
    ,@CurrentProjectNumber + '-' + Ph.PH_PHASE_NO + '-' + Dr.DRAWING_NO + '-' + Cast(Pl.ITEM_NO As varchar(max)) As 'Drg & Item No.'
    It is this line giving me the problem?
    ,@CurrentProjectNumber + '-' + Ph.PH_PHASE_NO + '-' + Dr.DRAWING_NO + '-' + Cast(Pl.ITEM_NO As varchar(max)) As 'Drg & Item No.'

    Hi uh... Mr. Rubbish at SQL :)
    Unfortunately, there are many elements in your questions which aren't clear:
    1. What is the content in your columns PH_PHASE_NO, DRAWING_NO, ITEM_NO and what is their data type?
    2. What is the content of the variable @CurrentProjectNumber and what is its data type?
    3. It's unclear what is the logic behind the "reduction" of '43180' to '4318'. Do you want to remove trailing zeros? Shorten the value by one character? Because from what I see in your first sentence, it seems like you simply want to add 1 to '43180'
    and turn it into '43181'. That's a simple +1 operation. I also notice that you want to remove the "Job Phase" part from the string (which is "1" in your case)? Or do you need to add its value to the "Project No" (43180)? It's
    all quite confusing.
    Clarification would be highly appreciated.
    I would suggest, if you can, to please explain what you need NOT by specific examples, but by explaining your requirements IN GENERAL. In other words, don't use specific values like '43180', but start with a variable like 'X', and then let us know specifically
    what operation you want to perform on it (e.g. 'add 1' / 'remove trailing zeros' / 'shorten by one character' / 'add to it the value of some column' etc.). This will make it easier to understand the algorithm needed.

    I use free Yahoo mail webMail access because folders I created in webmail access doesn't get set up in Apple Mail. While I was searching for post about password and keychain issues, I stumbled on several threads that complain about Mail folder issues, so I'm holding off on Apple Mail.
    On the password and keychain issue that your post is all about.  I've been using login keychain to save and automatical fill my login screens for a year or so successfully, with Safari and Chrome. Automatic form fill also works for Facebook login. Unfortunately, about 4 to 6 months ago, automatic password form fill stopped working with Yahoo webmail, while still worked for GMail (Safari and Chrome). I tried deleting the password entry for my two Yahoo email accounts to start fresh, but neither Safari not Chrome will even ask me if I want to save the password. I was so frustrated that I eventually installed the keypassX 0.43 (password manager) that is quite primitive sompare to OS X's keychain (when it works). Probably no surprise to you yet.
    The surprise, to me at least, is that, for whatever reason, password auto form-fill from keychain started working again for Yahoo webmail login on Safari about 5-7 days ago. Still doesn't work on Chrome!
    Two tips I can share, at least with webmail access:
    1. Password is save only for one of my yahoo mail accounts. When I login in with my other yahoo account, I get no prompt to save the password, and form fill doesn't work when I try to log in a second time with my other Yahoo mail account.
    2. On inspection of my login keychain, I see a webform password item saved for my Yahoo account that works with keychain. The name of the password is: login.yahoo.com(MyAccountName1#). When I open the password item and look in the Access Control tab, I see Safari and Chome are listed as allowed to access this password item..
         I also an "Internet password" item with a name of just login.yahoo.com. When I open the the password item, it looks just like the password item created for MyAccountName#1, but the MyAccountName#2 is listed in the Account field. Inside the Access Control tab, no apps are listed in access permission. I added Safari and Chrome to the lists of allowed app, saved the password item.
    Now when I bring up the Yahoo login page(by bookmark) on Safari, form fill fills in MyAccountname#1 for name and the proper password and I can login in. When I change the name to MyAccountName#2, the correct password is retrieved and I can log in! Alas, it still doesn't work on Chrome.
    BTW, I changed the password item type from "Internet password" to "Web Form password" and saw no difference! I also edited the name to be "login.yahoo.com (MyAccountName#2)" to look like the web form password item that works, but it has no effect either.
    From my experimentation, here's my observation:
    1. A Web Form password item is created for the first account name(MyAccountName#1) for login.yahoo.com and typed as Web Form password. When I log in using MyAccountName#2, an Internet Password is created, but no applications are listed as allowed to access the password item, even when the password item was created after just logged in and logged out to yahoo with the account name and password for MyAccountName#2.
    2. Manually adding Safari as an app that is allowed to use the password item works. Doesn't work with Chrome!
    The version of Safari I'm using is Version 5.1.7 (6534.57.2). My installed version of Chrome is Version 21.0.1180.79 beta.

  • Can anyone help with iPlayer and Sky Mobile?

    Ok, I'm so close to giving up with this useless phone. There are 3 apps on my N97 which give me a constant headache.
    BBC iPlayer
    Sky Mobile*
    YouTube
    *I should point out that I only use Sky Mobile to set recordings on my Sky+. I do not use it for, nor have any desire to use it for actually watching Mobile TV.
    All of these apps work absolutely fine over my home WiFi network. It's when I try to use them over 3G (my Vodafone Live! connection) that I start running in to trouble.
    All 3 give me connection problems, errors, and simply refuse to load half the time when on 3G. I got so annoyed I just did a hard reset the other week, and magically all three started working again. However, now 2 of them are failing me again. YouTube (touch wood) is working fine at the moment, but iPlayer and Sky Mobile just aren't.
    iPlayer sometimes works. But sometimes I get script errors (unable to load content), and sometimes it says something about checking my connection settings. I wouldn't mind but it's not actually possible to access any options for the iPlayer. Even in application settings there are no options you're able to set.
    Sky Mobile simply flat out refuses to work ever on 3G. But it did after I did a hard reset for a couple of weeks, now it just stopped working! It wont even load. It just gives the error message 'Unable to connect to network - please check connection settings" or something along those lines.
    I've tried so many different things. Tried setting my internet connections to 'always ask', tried setting it to default to Vodafone Live! all the time, tried setting my video streaming settings to WAP, all sorts. Every combination I can think of.
    I just can't wait to get rid of this phone. I've put so many people off buying one. They see it and think it's all swish and cool, and I just say 'Don't. You'll regret it'. I can't wait for my contract to be up so I can upgrade to an iPhone now Vodafone have got them.
    Can anyone help with these problems? Thanks in advance, but I don't hold out much hope...

    About iPlayer.
    Have a chat with Vodaphone. Streaming iPlayer over 3G IS allowed on Vodaphone contract, unlike my O2 contract. As long as your contract allows it, and you have the correct AP address, it should be fine. Vodaphone should be able to give you the setting.
    Mine only works over Wlan.
    FWIW, "... streaming over 3G is not currently available on iPhone handsets on any mobile network".
    p.s. Just to be clear. You say  "Tried setting my internet connections to 'always ask', tried setting it to default to Vodafone Live!".
    iPlayer uses the Nokia browser "Web". So that's where you should make the setting "Ask when needed". It should then offer you the choice of whatever you've set in Destinations> Internet> then select whatever you've chosen as your GPRS connection.(as advised, or sent to you by Vodaphone).

    Thanks Martin. I'm waiting to hear back but I believe he has the Vixia HF S10 or S11. It's a flash-drive HD camcorder. I have heard that the lousy software that comes with the Canon's for windows forced the clips to downsample. I'm going to try to Log and Capture directly from him camcorder. The (canon) device only has a USB port and I didn't think USB worked on macs for video.
    My video clips are 1920x1080 AIC, @29.97 fps.
    His clips are 720x404 mpeg2 muxed. It doesn't tell me anything else.
    In MPEG Streamclip, I can export to the same specs but in FCE it still makes me re-render the clips for some reason. very time consuming...

  • Can anyone help with a solution???

    Can someone please help? My problem is that I bought my iPad mini just last week and now it's freezing half way through what I'm doing and it's also not saving any of my photos? Can anyone help with a solution???

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

    why can't i play .wmv file in quicktime even after i download codec from windows? can anyone help me wit this please!!!!!

    Have you done the obvious things to try to fix it: quit Quicktime then start it back up again, log out then back in, reboot.
    Edit: Just read one of your later posts. If VLC won't play it, this is unrelated to Quicktime and Flip4Mac. Are you sure these wmv files are okay?

    Hi,
    If you don't already have one, use another PC to create a Windows 7 Rescue CD.  Download the relevant ISO from the links below.
    Windows 7 32bit
    Windows 7 64bit
    You should use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO to a CD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here.  Once created, or if you already have this, tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu.  Insert the Rescue CD.  Select Boot options ( usually f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and hit enter.  You may also get a prompt to 'Press any key to continue' - do this if asked.
    When loaded, select Repair Your Computer and choose the Command Prompt.  When this loads, enter the following commands and hit enter after each one - include spaces as shown.
    Bootrec.exe
    bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup
    c:
    cd boot
    attrib bcd -s -h -r
    ren c:\boot\bcd bcd.old
    bootrec /RebuildBcd
    bootrec /fixmbr
    bootrec /fixboot
    Remove the Rescue CD and try rebooting the notebook.

    Nothing anyone can do for you. You have a second hand phone that's been repaired by an unauthorized 3rd party using counterfeit, stolen, or salvaged parts. Apple won't touch it, as you've learned.
    Buy a new phone. Preferably, from a legitimate source.
