iOS is only for mobile devices. You are running a version of OS X.
If it's running Mac OS X 10.7 or newer, restart with the Command and R keys held down, open the Terminal, and use the resetpassword command:

    Billing document (Change Mode) : VF02 --> Enter (takes to main screen) --> on the top line Goto --> Header --> Output  --> maintain output type --> Enter --> back --> Enter printer (in most cases LOCL) --> Enter & SAVE.
    Move out of billing document & revisit Billing Document in change mode(VF02) --> In the initial screen itself, on the top line o to Billing Document --> Output --> Screen / preview > Enter> a screen will pop-up on which printer name is mentioned --> Enter & you will get the preview of Invoice.
    To Configure printer, take assistance from basis consultant.

  • I forgot my hidden file manager password,How can i get back my files

    I forgot Hidden file manager password,how can i get back my my data

    If you are able to Get Info on the folder of interest go the the very bottom section Sharing and Permissions.
    You can gain access to this area by clicking on the lock in the lower right corner of the Get Info window.
    Once you have input the admin password for the computer you should be able to edit the permissions on that file/directory.

    hey,i forgot my login password,so i changed the password by using terminal command(reset password).now i have new user name with new password,
    but i can't find  my data which i have saved on mac.the storage is showing data used and free space on the disk

    How did you change your user name?
    resetpassword wouldn't have done it. If you managed to create a new user, then your data is still in the old account.

  • I purchased a used iphone4 and the phone displays the previous owners apple id and prompts me for the previous owners password. how do i get rid of his info....and install my own apple id number?

    I purchased a used iphone4 and the phone displays the previous owners apple id and prompts me for the previous owners password. how do i get rid of his info....and install my own apple id number?

    Login to the app store with YOUR ID. You can't use the app store without an Apple ID. If there are apps on the phone that were purchased with the original owners ID, you do NOT own them. The owner had no legal right to give them to you and they are permanently tied to the ID that was used to purchase them.
    ...i was also allowed to purchase an apple network id for this phone...
    I have absolutely NO IDEA what you mean by that. You can not "purchase an apple network id".

  • I just created a new apple id for my self and when i go to update an app it shows my moms email and she wont tell me her password how do i get my email to show up

    i just created a new apple id for my self and when i go to update an app it shows my moms email and she wont tell me her password how do i get my email to show up

    You should have your stuff separate from your mom's. Delete all the apps downloaded or purchased with your mom's Apple ID and download or purchase them with your own Apple ID. Back up files and data first if possible.

    Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
