ITunes Password Window Keeps Appearing...Why?

For the past week I have constantly been bombarded with the iTunes Password window. Sometimes it happens when I first turn on my phone...sometimes it happens when I change to a different App... and it frequently is on the screen when I go to press End Call at the end of a conversation. The iTunes Password window is on the screen instead of the call that I am on. I have rebooted the phone a few times, and I have synced my phone recently after the problem appeared. I have not yet done the 3.1.3 software update. How can I keep this from happening. Thanks for the help.

Try this:
When you sync your iPhone or iPod touch with your computer, the account last used to access the iTunes Store from the computer is synced to the mobile device for use in the iTunes Store from the device as well. This same account is used for the App Store as well. This account will be used on the device for both stores until you sign in from your computer to the iTunes Store with a different account, and then resync your mobile device with the computer.
When you sync your iPhone or iPod touch, the iTunes application on the computer will share its current iTunes Store account ID with the device you are syncing. This account ID will be used to make purchases from the iTunes Store and App Store on the mobile device.
It is not possible to change the account in use on the device itself or to sync multiple accounts to your mobile device. To change the account you are using on your mobile device, go to your computer and sign in to the iTunes Store with the account you want to use on your mobile device, then sync your iPhone or iPod touch with your computer again. This will transfer the new account information to the mobile device. To sign in or out of an account in iTunes choose Store > Sign In (or Sign Out).
So, try syncing your phone using the account you used in itunes & see if this fixes the issue.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

MSI StarCam Clip - signed driver for Windows 8

After upgrading to Windows 8 x64 I lost my webcam.
I tried install unsigned driver and camera worked for a while* (search for windows 8 install unsigned driver, I can't put one stupid link to post).
But after few days / restarts Windows decides to disable driver again.
Please can MSI release signed drivers for Windows 7 (32bit/64bit) and Windows 8?

How can I disable the access to windows 2000(O.S.) from LabView?

I need to disable the access to windows when an application (exe), created by LabView, is running. When the application is running, the user can not acces to windows (for example, execute another application) until he stops the application.
I am using LabView 6.1 and windows 2000
Many Thanks

Hi Francesc,
There are a couple of options for this. One of them could be calling Windows OS activex components and making the Desktop invisible through labVIEW and then bringing it back on after the LabVIEW execution is stopped.
The other option is to modify user settings on the target machine. I have tried this on windows 2000 and it works.
Run "gpedit.msc" from your start menu. In the Group Policy template choose the user configuration that you wish to make the settings for. Expand User Configuration , expand Administrative Templates , and then expand System. Choose 'Custom user interface'
In this panel select 'Enabled' and enter the interface file name, in this case C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Labview 6.1.exe. (or your own filepath\App
lication.exe). Reboot the machine.
This replaces the default windows shell (explorer.exe) with your LabVIEW executable. When the operator logs on, the only thing on his screen is the Labview application. No desktop, no taskbar, no start button.
This can also be done through LabVIEW using register-level programming. But it would be a more complex approach.
Hope this helps.

My Macbook Pro has it's screws missing one by one and I knew my horrible nosy distant relative who has access to my apartment has been removing the hard drive to access the data. Does a) sign in password, b) Filevault offers protection?

I use Filevault now. But still is it safe ? Before it was only a sign in password. Answers appreciated .

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
What FileVault does in Lion and Mountain Lion is encrypt the whole hard drive, so if you don't type your user password when you start the Mac with FileVault, it's near impossible to access to the data because the hard drive can't be accessed.
In Lion and Mountain Lion, FileVault encrypts all the hard disk, so your files are safer than with FileVault in Mac OS X Snow Leopard. The thief will probably be unable to access to the files

How do I disable zip folders in Windows 7?

I like to use a third-party archive application, so I really don't like how by default Windows makes zip files expand automatically in Windows Explorer and show up in the folder view.
So... How do I disable zip folders in Windows 7?
In XP and Vista, I was able to find solutions to remove this "feature"
In XP, I simply did...
regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll
In Vista, I had to remove a couple registry entries:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
; Disable ZIP support in Windows Vista
; restart Windows after applying this patch
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31}]
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0CD7A5C0-9F37-11CE-AE65-08002B2E1262}]
I don't want to guess and delete the wrong registry entries if someone else knows which ones I need to remove.

EDIT - I HAVE FOUND A SOLUTION
After considerable browsing (thank you, Google), I have a solution that works. It is based on fixes for Vista, but works 100% for my Windows 7 64-bit install.
You will need to edit your registry (delete 2 different keys), so I highly recommend you back up your registry or better yet, make an image of your OS drive (probably C:\). I use Norton Ghost 2003 (only from a NG 2003 boot floppy) and have never had a single problem. Norton Ghost does not have to be installed on your system for this to work (in fact, it will stall due to compatibility issues).
First a note regarding the various reg tweaks that are available for download (e.g., "vistaunzip.reg"). These will NOT work - undoubtedly due to ownership/permissions issues.
The following two (2) keys need to be deleted fromthe registry:
For zip files delete the regkey
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31}
For cab files delete
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0CD7A5C0-9F37-11CE-AE65-08002B2E1262}
When you try to delete them, you will almost certainly get an "access denied" or "failed" type of message. Before you can delete them, you need to change the permissions/ownership of these two keys. Here is how to do it:
01 - open regedit from the RUN console
02 - navigate to the first key that needs to be deleted (HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0- B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31})
03 - right click on the key and select "Permissions"
04 - click on "Advanced"
05 - click on the "Ownership" tab
06 - in the "change owner to" section, highlight your username
07 - check the box for "replace owner on subcontainers and objects"
08 - click on "Apply"
09 - Click "OK"
10 - Under "Security" tab, highlight your username and check the box for "Allow Full Control" (located mid-menu in the "Permissions For Administrators" section)
11 - click "Apply" and "OK"
12 - you can now delete the registry key. MAKE SURE YOU ARE ON THE CORRECT KEY!
13 - repeat the process for the 2nd key.
14 - reboot (changes will NOT take effect until you reboot
15 - VOILA! NO MORE ZIP FOLDERS! woohoo!
16 - thanks to the original solvers of this problem, whomever they may be.
I would like the same help that deedvd is seeking. How do I DISABLE the
zip folder function? I do NOT want my zip files to appear as "folders".
Why anyone in Redmond thought this was a brilliant idea is beyond me.
It adds to clutter and makes file browsing a lot less enjoyable. I
simply want my zip files to appear as files - with the ".zip"
extension. Just like every other file. The responses to deepdvd were
probably as frustrating to him as they are to me. Changing the default
program for zip files is IRRELEVANT. It only changes whether Windows or
some third party app (7Zip, Izarc, etc) OPENS the files. They continue
to show up as folders. I tried the unregister script (earlier thread)
"Running regsvr32 /u %windir%\system32\zipfldr.dll should be enough to disable zip functionality. Then just run your 3rd party archite application and let it re-register archive files." and it did not work. I got the same error that deeddvd got "The module "C:\Windows\system32\zipfldr.dll" was loaded but the entry-point DllUnregisterServer was not found.
Make sure that "C:\Windows\system32\zipfldr.dll" is a valid DLL or OCX file and then try again."
I would love to find a resolution to this problem. If anyone out there knows how to DISABLE the zipfolder function, please post the solution. I am thanking you in advance.

How can I sign a password protected PDF doc?

I am trying to sign a password protected document, downloaded from a government site. I can use all button and drop-down menus and also validate the document but then, when I click on the line where I have to sign, there is only the cursor flashing and I cannot sign it. It seems that the document was created with version 8.1.7. and I have 11.0.02. Does anyone know what I have to do to sign this doc?

Is the thing you're clicking on a text field or a digital signature field?

Disabling opening of multiple windows and tabs

Hi experts,
do we have any option to disable opening of multiple windows and tabs. Like making end user to use single window browser to do all operations.
Regards
Govardan Raj S

HI Rajendra ,
Actually if end user access the portal in a browser window , and if he opens another window i.e file->new window --- same portal applications will open in the new window with the same credentials and hence here i should either restrict him or log off the user in both windows.

my apple id has been disabled i changed password but it's not works

Try logging out of your account on the phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it
If that doesn't work then you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

How can I mount an encrypted image automatically and get a password window

Hello
I know how to mount an encrypted image automatically when I login and get myself a password window. (I actually how I did it at the moment though). I had a cronjob log me out at say 5am every day and I force myself to login everyday.
Now I have a need to keep the login session forever. I would therefore like to mount the image automatically at a specified time daily and get the same window prompt. If do it from a bash prompt with 'hdiutil attach /path' I am getting a password prompt at the bash instead of a password windows. I am thinking of putting that command in cronjob.
What must I do to get a password window automagically? If doing it via cronjob is wrong, I am open to other proper Mac way.
Thanks
mr.wu

You can use Automator and iCal. Use Automator's Run Shell Sript action and enter hdiutil attach /path. Save the workflow as an iCal plugin. Set iCal to run the workflow when you want. You can also save the workflow as an application, and set up an iCal alarm to run that application at a specified time.
