Connecting MiFi to direct tv. Asks for a security key?

Connecting MiFi to direct tv satellite. It asks for our security key? Any ideas where to find it?

Hello Harveyharvey,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I am glad to see that you are looking into options with using your mifi device. What model mi-fi are you using? Also what exactly are you hooking it up to your Direct TV for? There is usually a given security pin on the devices bottom on a sticker. This can either be directly on the bottom of the device or in the battery door depending on the model. This would be the only password assosciated with the device. Please let us know if you need anymore assistance.
Thank you,

If you mean the hexidecimal equivalent of the alphanumeric password, then you can find this via the AirPort Utility, as follows:
AirPort Utility > Select the AirPort > Manual Setup
On the AirPort Utility's menubar select Base Station > Equivalent Network Password

Changed PW in my home network. Now when I try to log on I get "unable to connect" , but it doesn't ask for he new (or any) password, so I'm dead in the water. Any suggestions?

Use the Settings app to select your Wi-Fi network.
Settings > Wi-Fi > Select the Wi-Fi Network that will not work > then select Forget this Network
After to accept this choice your iPad should see your network again and allow you to enter the new password.

I just went through this last night. (Aug 15, 2013)
What I did to get back up and running. This is not the first time I have lost the network connection with my Apple TV 3
Products effected: Apple TV 3 and Home Sharing (My Apple TV 1 was not effected)
Power down (unplug) the Apple TV and power down your router ( in my case, it is a FIOS router, flipping the on/off works fine).
Power both items back up.
At this point, I usually can reenter my Apple ID and PW. and reconnect Home Sharing. But for some reason I was unable to reconnect last night but was able to get it reconnected in the morning. I was jut to tired to deal with it last night.
A new issue that is was able to fix after a good nights sleep.
I did figure out, (after trying to reenter my ID and PW many times and having it tell me that my ID and PW was wrong), that when using the Apple TV on screen keypad to type in the user ID. DO NOT use the ".com" keypad button. Instead type out each character for .com. ( or what ever ending you use for your ID account.)
Once I typed out my full ID and PW. everything is back to 100%

Have the purchaser go to Settings/Store, tap your Apple ID and then choose Sign out.
The purchaser will then need to tap Sign in and enter their own Apple ID for their iTunes account.

Photoshop asking for a licence key

I have subscribed to CC and downloaded Photoshop. When I came to launch it was told that trial was over and asked for a licence key. I am paying a subscription and inevitably cannot find any link to contact Adobe - instead have been directed to forums. Can you help? Many thanks Ivan

there's no key with cc. you use your adobe id.
sign out and then back in to your cc desktop app using the same adobe id used to subscribe to cc, Sign out, Sign in | Creative Cloud Desktop app
then open an app.
if that fails, Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CS5.5 and later

It's a really bad idea to post your email addresess - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove them.
This is a user-to-user forum and no-one on here can take any direct action. If your Yahoo address is not working that's something you would need to take up with Yahoo - have you checked it by sending yourself an email to it?
Otherwise you will need to contact Support: go to https://expresslane.apple.com/ and click on 'iTunes' in the center column and then 'iTunes Store' in the right-hand column and proceed from there.

I Installed AirPort Extreme 3 computers work fine. I am trying to use my old sony laptop. It is asking for a network key. I entered wpa2. I also tried my password. What should I do?

Which wireless security type did you configure your AirPort Extreme with? You basically have two choices: WPA Personal or WPA2 Personal. There are actually others, but these are the most common in use today.
What version of Windows is the Sony laptop running and which service pack level is it at? Do you know what wireless security types that this laptop's wireless can support?
