No. You can lock your main screen, but thats about it.

    I want to password protect a photo album, can I do this?

    You can only put a passcode on your phone, not the Photos app.
    There might be an app you can buy that allows for a password - try taking a look in the App Store

  • Can I password protect my email accounts on my iPhone?

    I would like to know if there is a way to password protect my email accounts so if someone is using my phone for games etc they cant look at my emails?

    The ability to password protect email accounts in the Mail app isn't currently possible (apart from going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and removing/adding the password) as the iPad is essentially a single user device. Using a browser is an alternative (and if your family have accounts with different providers you add bookmark shortcuts to your home screen), and you could also try providing feedback to Apple http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • Can you password protect your mail so when you want to access any mail you must enter a password?

    Can you password protect your email so when you want to access any of your mail accounts you must enter a password?  In other words before I can see my mail I must enter a password.

         You could go to Settings>General>Passcode Lock and set a password to secure all your      personal data.

  • How do I create a folder for private documents which can be password protected?

    how do I create a folder which can be password protected please?

    You can do this by creating a protected disk image.
    Instructions here http://www.macworld.com/article/154559/2010/10/password_protect_folders.html
    Or you can buy and use software like this one: http://www.apimac.com/mac/secretfolder/
    The disk image option is free and easy to do.

  • Can I password protect a zip file?

    Is it possible to encrypt or place a password on a zip file created in the Finder?

    not from finder. you can do it from terminal if you wish or use some 3rd part archiving tool like Stuffit . I think it can make password protected zip files. but zip passwords can be cracked. a better option is to use an encrypted disk image instead of a zip file. you can make one with disk utility.

  • Could someone please tell me how can I password protect individual folders?

    Hi
    I use a MacBook Pro 17" with MacOSX(10.4.7) Could someone please tell me how can I password protect individual folders?
    Thanks
    Adnan Yousuf

    Adnan,
    One way to do this is to use Disk Utility to make a password protected disk image of the folder(s) that you need to secure. This is probably the easiest way to do it.
    Go to Disk Utility and choose "New Image" and select encryption.

  • Can you password protect pages folders

    When you create a folder in pages, can you password protect the folder, or it only that documents can have a password?

    Only the file can be password protected from within Pages. If you don't want the file to open on your Mac without the password, then do not check, “Remember this password in my keychain,” in the password dialog. Record your document password where you can retrieve it — in case your forget, or if using keychain, in case it becomes damaged.
    You can password protect (and encrypt) a folder that contains Pages documents, whether they are password protected or not.
    In Finder, press shift+command+U to launch the Utilities Window.
    Launch Disk Utility
    File > New > Disk Image from Folder…
    From the Select Folder to Image dialog, select the folder and click Image
    From the New Image from Folder dialog
    Image Format
    Compressed - folder will be read-only with no ability to add documents later
    Read/write - intuitive
    Encryption: 256-bit AES Encryption
    Save
    In the new password dialog, set your password
    You should strive for password complexity that shows strength as green
    Record your password where you can retrieve it.
    Again, the caveat about keychain as mentioned above
    A new disk image will appear with the name you gave it, and a .dmg extension
    Double-click for the password challenge
    The disk image will mount on your desktop just like an installer. Double-click to open.If you chose Image format as read/write, you can drag additional Pages documents into this open folder
    Right-click on the mounted image and choose Eject to close it
    You can edit Pages documents in-place in the mounted folder, but you will get a warning about space in the image container. If you want to increase the disk image size, open it in Disk Utility. It willl appear below the line in the left panel. Select the .dmg there, and from the Images menu, choose Resize…, and adjust accordingly.

  • HT5019 MacPro laptop display and 2 external monitors (three displays). Can I have more than one application displayed at a time?

    I would like to have my MacPro laptop display and 2 external monitors (three displays). Question, how can I have more than one application displayed at a time? IE: I would like email on one monitor, Finder on my laptop, and iTunes on the other. Possible?
    With extended desktop, it appears that I can only have one application presenting at a time. Sort of defeats the purpose of having multiple displays.
    I am using the HDMI and the mini HDMI connectors.

    Hey guys, how can i password protect my files in external hard drive? I want to access those files both from mac and windows PC!

    If you want a cross-platform solution that doesn't require the use of third-party software, use an external drive with hardware encryption. The device will have either a physical key or a numeric keypad. I don't have a specific recommendation.

    How can i password protect my ipad2 email

    The pass code is no alternative, because it's disturbing the easy handling of the iPad.
    All unsatisfied users should organize protests against Apple. Every missing Dollar makes the company more thinking about their customers. I'm sure that I would change the platform, if there is someone taking care about the wishes of their customers.
