CS6 Master Collection asking for password after months of use

Why is CS6 now asking for a password again after months of use? I have already entered a valid passwork upon installation. I am running Mountain Lion on a 15" Macbook Pro. I launch Photoshop, and then I get this screen
But I already have a password and have installed CS6 six months ago. Even when I enter the password, it does not stick and I et this dialog box on every launch.

Tom,
Can you provide the AMT3.log for a look , it may help us in knowing the problem.
you can find the file at the below location:-
\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Temp
Also please move the cache.db file to the desktop then launch the software, serialize it with the serial number and then close it and Re-open it.
The location for cache.db file is : Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PCD/cache

Ask for password after screen lock not working!?

Ask for password after screen lock not working? It used to work before mavericks, each time my computer display sleep I'm asked for the password immediately. Now it never asks for it?

From 2008 MacRumors discussion:
SOLUTION: Browse to Home>Library>Preferences and drag com.apple.systempreferences.plist to the desktop.
Caused by a corrupt user preferences file. On restart, you may find user settings have defaulted. Set up as desired.
Worked for me.

Ask for password after sleep but not after screen saver

Hi guys!! I have been using a mid 2009 Macbook pro since mid 2009 and obviously am thoroughly satisfied!! I have OS 10.7.4 Lion.
A small glitch that has been nagging me lately is that I have my screensaver set to on before my book goes to sleep. But I don't want it to ask for a password after it comes back from the screensaver. I want it to ask for password only when it comes back from sleep coz I don't shut the system down more than once a month, so only flip the screen shut when my day ends.
So essentially is there a way I can make it as for a password ONLY after it wakes from sleep and NOT after screensaver?

I'm not entirely in love w/ the idea of having to move all my data over to the other account. I might just deal w/ not having the screen saver ask for the pass. One other bit of info that may be helpful: This is the second time having this problem. The first time, it got fixed after the most recent intel osx update. I figured that apple had found a bug and fixed it. Then, w/o shuting down my comp, it failed to ask again. Is there any applications that could be messing this up? Any widgets that might do it?? If not, is there any apps that can switch all my pics/movies, etc over to the other account?

How to get Leopard to stop asking for password after waking from sleep mode

My regular userid does not have a password. When I boot the system, it goes directly in without asking for password. However, when Mac wakes from sleep, it asks for password. I just press enter.
Can I do something to make Mac skip over request for password when waking from sleep?
Thanks.
(The Mac is sleeping, not me.)

Open the Security pane of System Preferences and turn that option off.

Screensaver always asks for password after wake

Since the update to 10.5.3, my screensaver always asks me for my password after I wake up my iMac. I have disabled the setting in the system preferences, but the password-prompt still shows up. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Many thanks in advance!

Will a CS6 Master Collection upgrade for CS5.5 upgrade CS5 as well?

Basically, I want to upgrade my CS5 Master Collection using a CS5.5 to CS6 upgrade package. Can it be done or does Adobe differentiate between 5.0 and 5.5 upgrades?

YEs, CS5.5 is a separate, different version. If your CS6 serial os specifically tied to CS5.5 it may not work. Generally, though, this could work. Anyway, if you have specific questions contact sales support.

Ipad keeps asking for password after I enter it on WIFI?

So I just updated, OOPS! I now can't connect to wifi or anything that asks for a password it seems because the prompt to enter password keeps popping up as if I didn't just type it in.

Some ISPs refuse connection attempts if they are too frequent, or limit the number of simultaneous connections that are allowed from the same IP address, or the account may have become full, or there might be a problem with the network, or there might be a problem with the server...
Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list.
What’s the time interval chosen in Mail > Preferences > General > Check for New Mail? If it’s set to Every minute, try changing it to Every 5 minutes.

Gmail keeps asking for password after iOS5 Upgrade

I have an iPhone 4 that I upgraded to iOS 5 last night. It now keeps asking me for my Gmail password.
This isssue is already under discussion here - http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/gmail/thread?tid=7059ec7762111ada&hl=en
I've deleted my Gmail account and tried to add it back, yet it keeps giving me the bad password error. I've reset my password on Google mail and issue persists even when trying to use new password. Any ideas?
Corbin

So I removed the buggy GMail account from Mail and waited a day. Today I decided to re-add it and all was well for one hour until the pop up for passwords happened again... I went into Preferences and accounts and saw my password wasn't stored so I added it and saved but still same issue.
Also I added this account to my iPhone and it was working fine til an hour again so maybe a syncing issue?

Virtual XP Mode Asks for Password after "Could not enable Integration features

With Win7 64 bit professional as the main OS I installed the VM XP Mode several years ago and occasionally when XP is booting up, it asks for a password for the username XPM User. I have never setup passwords for Win 7 or for XP so that the PC simply boots
up into first the Win 7 and then I can choose to boot straight into XP if I wish. On the occasions that XP asks for a password, I have simply closed down and rebooted successfully. Over the past two days I have received a dialog box telling me that the integration
features could not be enabled and on closing that dialog box, I am being asked for a password - which does not exist! As a result, I cannot access the personal finance application that I 've been using for the past 15 years. This is the only application I
run on XP and is the reason the virtual machine is in use.
I read through the existing posts on "could not enable integration features" and none seem to offer much of a solution to me. There is no .vsv file.
How do I access the files that are stored for use with XP?
How can I create a password that XP will accept?

Hi,
When finding the .vsv file, have you unchecked the show hidden files option? Go Control Panel | Folder Options | View and uncheck the option to "hide extensions of known file types" and also enable showing hidden files and folders. The file type is
Virtual Machine Saved State. If it exists, please delete it and restart the XPmode.
Regarding the password issue, have you checked those two threads?
the integration features could not be enabled
Removed XP Mode password in Windows 7 and now cant login
The suggestions is to enter safe mode and make a password reset OR reinstall the intergration features. Please take a check with more suggestions offerred by the folks here.
If the above is not working, then we may consider to backup important files with XPM VHD file via Disk management, and then reinstall Windows XP mode.

Keeps asking for password after I have logged in--Why?

I keep my Mail program on all of the time. But several times per day it will ask me to log in with PW. If I ignore this and cancel, then tell it to go on line with all mail addresses it works fine for some time. Then it starts over with asking for PW. I have DSL and am on line 24/7.
Any suggestions?

RMBP not asking for password after sleep

I have a concern with the security of my Macbook Pro Retina because everytime I put it to sleep, it almost always doesn't ask me for a password. I'd say 9/10 times it will just go straight to the desktop without asking me for my password.
I have tried different ways of putting it to sleep:
Apple Menu > Sleep
Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl + Shift + Power/Eject
Close the lid
Once in a while, I will see the login window flash on the screen quickly but then it completely gets skipped (without me entering a password) and it goes to straight to the desktop.
Also, not sure if it is related but when it skips the login screen my computer becomes sort of unresponsive. I can move the mouse and open/close windows but I can't use the keyboard to type anything. For example, if I have Chrome previously open I can (sort of) interact with it but I can't type a URL in the address bar. Other things won't work like the clicking menu bar or clicking the Apple Menu. I thought there was a rogue app open but I can't click the Apple Menu to get to Force Quit and I can't use Alt+⌘+Esc.
Basically I just have to force the computer to restart. It's annoying because I have things I'm working on at the moment - hence the reason I only put the computer to sleep in the first place.
Here are my current settings:
Note that I am on an account with admin access but there are also other admin accounts which I think is why "Require password immediately" is prechecked but not editable.
Wondering if anyone has experienced this before and have any ideas/solutions for me.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks! I've resorted to doing this. It's a small annoyance of having to type out my username along with my password but at least I know for sure it's locked.
I actually played around with a few things and I thought I fixed it.
I went to Users > username > Library > Preferences. Inside com.apple.screensaver.plist, I thought this was causing it
And I saw on another thread someone suggested to delete these files:
com.apple.screensaver.plist
com.apple.systempreferences.plist
I tried it and I thought it worked because I put my laptop to sleep and the login screen showed up! However, after leaving it in sleep overnight, the problem came back =(

Airport utility asks for password after factory reset of Airport Extreme (spaceship), Why?

Hi, I recently replaced my Airport Extreme (the older model shaped like a space ship, 802.11 b/g) with an Airport Express. I tired to move the spaceship to a different room in my house to extend the wireless network, but it was not being recognized by the Airport Utility (v5.6). So, I did a factory reset of the spaceship. Now I can see it in Airport Utility, however when I try to configure it, the Airport Utility prompts me for a password. It will not accept "public" as the password. Any ideas? Could keychains be the problem? This is a 2009 MBP running 10.8.3.

Great! Thanks for the update.
Out of morbid curiosity I went to my Mountain Lion Mac and downloaded AirPort Utility 5.5.3. I confirmed it will not install on Mountain Lion using OS X's usual package installer, but using the technique that follows I was able to install and run it on Mountain Lion. The only thing I could not verify is its ability to administer an older AEBS since I no longer have any to test.
The remainder of this post is for those who are willing to circumvent Apple's desire to use only current versions of AirPort Utility for reasons known only to them. Proceed only if you accept this as an unsupported workaround strictly for the purposes of administering an older Extreme on a newer Mac.
Prerequisites: A package extractor like Pacifist or unpkg will be required. Pacifist is shareware, unpkg is free.
Download Pacifist here: http://www.charlessoft.com/
Download unpkg here: http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
Download AirPort Utility 5.5.3 here: http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1390
Directions for Pacifist (I do not have screenshots for unpkg but the idea is similar):
After the .dmg file finishes downloading double-click it to mount the volume containing the metapackage. Control-click it and select Open With > Pacifist from the contextual menu:
You will get the following dialog:
The "unidentified developer" in this case is Apple. Click Open to open Pacifist.
Click the "reveal triangles" until you see AirPort Utility.app and select it.
The next steps are important.
Select Extract To... from the toolbar as in the above screenshot. In the dialog that follows, choose Desktop since otherwise you will overwrite your existing, newer version of AirPort Utility in your Utilities folder which should not be deleted. Restoring it may not be trivial.
Authenticate, allow Pacifist to extract the app, then you can quit Pacifist.
You will now have AirPort Utility version 5.5.3 on your Desktop. Before you attempt to copy it to your Utilities folder though, be sure to rename it accordingly:
You can then drag it to your Utilities folder. Authenticate, and you will have it alongside later versions where they can peacefully coexist:
Use the newest version AirPort Utility to administer current production AirPort Base Stations, and older versions only as necessary for older AirPort Base Stations that cannot be administered any other way.
