Has anyone started making all the password changes necessary to ward off the effects of the Heartbleed bug?
Everything I have read about Heartbleed is enough to make you go back to the age before computers. However, even if you did, the support systems for everything these days is computer based. So there's no escaping it. Plus this is only the beginning. I wonder what will be next?
Anyway, I have started making password changes after carefully checking each website for vulnerability. It is a tedious process to say the least. It is painstakingly slow.
Does anyone have any ideas to make this process easier and less painful?
This may not help you this time but I use LastPass as my password manager and they made it very easy because they very quickly released a tool that allowed me to automatically check all of my stored passwords and alert me to which ones were for affected sites and whether or not the site had yet corrected the problem. Additionally LastPass has always been able to sense when I make a password change for a site that I have a stored password and makes it easy to store the change. It also has a capability to generate passwords with random characters, etc. http://blog.lastpass.com/2014/04/lastpass-now-checks-if-your-sites-are.html
In terms of help for this time, the password generation ability and the ability to store the passwords is something that may make your job easier.

Has anyone started out with creative cloud photography and later upgraded to the full bundle?
Has anyone started out with creative cloud photography and later upgraded to the full bundle?
Lenora, I'm curious about the same thing.
I currently have the cloud's Photoshop and Lightroom program, and would like to upgrade to the full Creative Suite.
The listed pricing doesn't distinguish between types of previous customers. I don't know if I'm considered an existing CS customer because I have other individual cloud products, or if I must have already purchased the entire suite in the past. Any insight would be grand.

Has anyone started having trouble with google calendar syncing / showing up on their iPhone 4s or iPad 2? As of today it no longer shows up. Thanks.
Let me re-qualify my issue. Under my Google Calendar account I have the main calendar I originally set up when setting up my account. I then set up several other calendars under this same account such as events, work, family and so on. All the calendars showed up on my iPhone and iPad with no problem and worked great for a year and a half now until yesterday. My main calendar does still show up but the others no longer appear on my devices. Going on line to look at my Google calendar/calendars everything is fine with all of them. Any thoughts as to why they no longer show up on my iPhone or iPad? Thanks again.

I work in the maintenance facility at a school district and we have 3 flat screens in different areas all with Apple TV, the I.T department changed the way we log in to the wifi, we use a user name and password now. I have a user name and pass word that I can use for all 3 sets but not sure how to set it up. I could go to our I.T. guys but they are not Apple friendly guys.

This crap just happened to me this morning where I was sent 90% data plan threshold warningfrom AT&T (while sleeping at 7:09am) then 5 minutes later getting the Overage data plan warning from AT&T. This is all while I'm asleep right next to my phone plugged into a (non-Apple) dock on my clock radio.
Android has a limiting feature, why can't the "smart" guys at Apple learn from this?? -
When I try to turn on my homesharing on apple TV it says that either my apple id doesn't exist or the password is wrong. However, I've been using the id for almost half a year and I even changed my password and it still wouldn't work. What can I do to fix this?
Not sure if this Term is Relevant towards an iPhone but, my iPhone won't Post unless if it's plugged into a Charger.

Capturing the User Id from the Password change screen after Login
Hi,
I need to capture the User Id from the Password Change screen and Pass it to the Custom Portal application that is triggered on the change password screen.That User Id will be passed on to the Portal application to retrieve the details of the User.
I have triggered the Custom Portal application from the OnClick of CHANGE button.
It can be probably done by appending the User Id captured from the Change Password screen to the Url of the Portal application.
But am not clear how to capture the User ID.
Pls help!!
Thanks & Regards,
Amarys.Hello
Why do you want to capture user id? You can access it from portal application. -

I reset my IPAD password but the verification email wasn't sent to my primary or secondary email address. Without the verification email I can't complete the password change process. Any recommendations?
Great tip from dorothy. Also, some isp services are more aggressive from others in filtering what they think might be spam. You might check your spam file from a computer, and see if the verification e mails are sitting there. When i wen through the process, the verification e mail came to the new e mail address in under a couple of minutes.

I am trying to log on to an old laptop and I cannot get past the password screen - I'm using the password I always used and it is not working. Even the clue doesn't help. Is there anything I can do. The last time it was turned on the apple staff transferred data to my new laptop. Help
If the old Macbook(?) has Snow Leopard 10.6 installed, and you have that retail install disc or the system disc of the current (base level) system on it, you could use the installer disc as a boot volume and use the utilities on the booted install disc to reset the password. It should be a menu option in the booted Install disc, way short of any effort to re-install anything. And if your computer can do this, the same DVD has Disk Utility, to check/repair the Mac HDD.
What OS X version do you have, & what MacBook, etc is that?
Good luck & happy computing!
