Have a Guest option at start up

This morning I have a guest person option at start up. I didn't do anything to the system. Where did that come from?

Whoever else has access to your computer.

System Pref'>Users and Groups>Unlocked it with password>Guest User is OFF>Allow guests to log into this computer is NOT CHECKED,

Hello Leopardus,
having read other post concerning this issue
Re: Removing Guest User icon from login page
dated all the way back to 2012, I have decide to leave well enough along and not let the GUEST button bother me.
I rarely if ever take my Mac out of the house so I have not given much thought to theft or loss, but, in the event of it leaving my house by another way, the slim possibility of recovering it is worth the annoyance, I'll get over it.
Thank you all.

Convert pdf to word doc-but don't have the export option.

I want to convert a pdf (that I got from an email) into a Word doc so I can edit it the way I want to. However, for some reason now I don't have the 'Export' option in my File drop down list.
Funny thing is, I've converted the document once already and have entirely forgotten how I did it obviously!
I've made so many changes in my first conversion I want to start over.
why don't I have the 'Export' option? Or ... when I do a 'save as' and chose 'word doc' it only does a copy - paste type save - where I can't make any changes. It's like it puts it into a text box or something.
I have MSWord 2010.

When I do the steps below, the Word doc that is saved is like a photo. I am unable to work with the document. Why does it do that? I have converted pdf’s before without that happening but I think I did it on a free 30-day trial of X Pro.
This usually happens when you're dealing with a very poor quality scanned document that doesn't have enough data for the Acrobat OCR engine to actually process.
As for Acrobat 6.0 Pro, I don't believe the Save as Word function was introduced until version 8.0, but it's been a few years and the memory of Acrobat 6 has faded a bit.

Hello i have a problem when i start woorksheet, my computer crash with blue screen sometimes.

hello i have a problem when i start woorksheet, my computer crash with blue screen.
OS: Win 2000 pack 2 and dasylab 7.00.05 ;ddi7.02 ;nidaq 7.0
I hve this problem sometimes and need to reebot my computer.This worksheet is used to generate 4 signals to output and have an acquisition tooin this 4 channels.
The error is in the blue screen:0x00000076 (0x00000000 , 0x81358300, 0x000001c2, 0x00000000).
Thanks for your help.

The DASYLab development team has read your message, and advises that there is insufficient information to be able to even start diagnosing the problem. We suggest that you send a note directly to [email protected], with your full contact information, DASYLab serial number, and the following technical information:
-The Help-->Report information - this will tell us more about the computer, video and installed memory
-Installed hardware - what DAQ devices are you using (exact models!)
-The worksheet that crashes - we need to see how the timing is configured in the worksheet
-What other programs are running at the same time?
-Does the worksheet crash every time?
-Does the NI-DAQ Test Panel work correctly for both inputs and outputs?
Sorry that we cannot be more help in this forum; we do not have much experience with blue screen under Windows 2000. This is very hard to do, and is almost always related to a hardware problem - either a resource conflict, or problems with one of the installed hardware devices (DAQ, Video, Memory...).

Airplay: I don't have the airplay option at all.

Why don't I have the airplay option. As per the user manual, I need to start the video or music and tap and choose the AirPlay device. But I don't get that button. Is there any application that I need to install? I even tried searching for airplay in appstore. No relevant apps were reflected. Do I have to first connect the airplay enabled device and then it shows that button or something's wrong with my iPod touch?

I understand that, but what I want to know is whether the airplay button/icon shows up only when my ipod is connected to the airplay enabled device or it shows all the time?

Cant enter mac os when pressing option at start after hiding mac partition in newly installed win7

I used boot camp to install windows 7 ultimate yesterday. After that I use some partition tool to hide the mac partition simply because I dont wanna carelessly take something out or put something in the partition. After that, I can never see mac os option on start again when pressing option button. This really made me upset cuz I got lot of important stuff on mac os. Can anyone help?

Well, you hid it, didn't you. When you hide something, how would you see it?
You probably can unhide it, with the same tool that you used to hide it (I hope for you that it is a Windows tool).
Eventually when you have back the Mac Partition, you should set the Windows Partition to be the default Boot Disk. Then you do not need to "hide" the mac partition.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

HT1310 I press option when starting up my computer and it just hangs or at least never gives me the list of startup disks before it's booted up.

I press option when starting up my computer and it just hangs or at least never gives me the list of startup disks before it's booted up. I can choose which startup up disk when I'm already booted up from settings --> Startup Disk but how do I know if my Macintosh HD internal drive disk fails I'll be able to boot from my supposedly bootable backup drive?
What am I missing? I have the latest Mountain Lion, could this be bug in that new Op System?
Does the startup drive list (before bootup) only show up if the Macintosh HD is not bootable (crashed or broken)?

Replugging my keyboard into my front USB2 slot was half the solution. I had my keyboard plugged into a KVM switch which goes into the back. The other half was that I needed to unplug my backup firewire hard drive from the front port to a chained drive with the source hooked into the back of the Mac Pro. Not sure if it was the cable or the firewire slot that gummed up the hardware startup hard drive selection diaglog.
I also tried resetting the NVRAM and only got one Mac startup sound. That didn't seem to do it but then again it could of been a necessary condition as well.
Thanks everyone for your help.

Since I have changed from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1, I have not been able to start up Photoshop Elements 9! or Premiere Elements 9! The menu starts up allright, but the programs don't start when I press any buttons. How do I fix this problem?

Since I have changed from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1, I have not been able to start up Photoshop Elements 9! or Premiere Elements 9! The menu starts up alright, but the programs don't start when I press any buttons. How do I fix this problem?

If Layers is greyed out it possibly means that you are in Quick Mode. Select 'Expert' and all the options should become available.
Try permanently associating psd files with C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 12\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe and see if that fixes the issue. Instructions here - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows-8/choose-programs-windows-uses-default.

You can get there from here (booting normally); it just may take you a few steps to do it.
If the disk is almost full and the system won't boot then sometimes it will boot in Safe Mode.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564?viewlocale=en_US
Empty the trash after it boots.
Then for hints on how to free disk/SSD storage see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5872318?tstart=0
If the Safe Mode boot does not do the trick then you can install OS X on an external hard disk, boot from that, and then delete files. You can also reach the disk via Target Mode. A third option is to take it to an Apple store where they can do a network boot and help you remove some files.

HT2534 Why don't I have a "none" option for credit cards?

I'm trying to create my apple ID, and I tried following the instructions to make one without a credit card, and I do not have the none option. Does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone know how to fix it? Any help/advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Perhaps you started creating that account differently, and then found article. Then it is too late and you just need to use another email to create another id.

Why don't I have reduce motion option with iOS 7.0.2 upgrade?

Why don't I have reduce motion option with iOS 7.0.2 upgrade? It is making me really dizzy and sick to my stomach similar to reading in the car (can't do that either). I read to go into general settings, accessibility and click reduce motion....I do not have this option at all. HELP!

Seconded. Although my main problem w/ that zoom-out-as-app-loads effect is that I suspect it's the source of that annoying delay between app zooming open & UI being active/accepting input. When I switch between apps, after the zoom completes, there's 1-2 seconds where the app accepts no UI input at all. This seemed instantaneous in iOS 6.
(Oh, off-topic, but the control center is devilishly hard to sweep up. most of the time I accidentally start Safari or Mail.)
