Having trouble setting up parental controls

Hello, when I set parental controls on the guest account, I still have trouble going to "allowed" sites. An example is, I allow access to google and amazon but when I try to access gmail it won't let me. It says something about a bad connection. The same with amazon; access to the main page is fine but when I try to sign into my account it won't let me.
Am I missing something?
thx

Apparently Parental Controls doesn't allow access to https (secure) sites, which would apply to those sites.

Why cannot I view my passwords in keychain after having set up parental controls?

I used to be able to open keychain, click on any particular key, click on the box "view password" and see the password after entering my administrator name and master password. Then, I set up parental controls on my macbook pro because I got tired of seeing all the pornographic ads and such that would often pop up when I did a google search. Now, any time I need to see one of my passwords, I only get a dialog box stating that "access is denied." Any ideas on how to solve this frustrating problem?

hello gstout, you can use the no squint extension - it allows you to set a global zoom level for all sites: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/

MSI X58 Pro - I'm having trouble setting up my first Raid 0 Array

Hey guys! I have an i7 920, X58 Pro, 3x2GB DDR3, Radeon 5850, 640GB WD Black (Windows 7 64 bit + applications) and 1TB Samsung F3 (backup) system and I'm having trouble setting up a raid 0 array. I recently decided to purchase two additional 1TB Samsung F3 harddrives in order to create a raid 0 array, while still keeping my original two harddrives separate. I installed the new harddrives today, installed the JMicron drivers that were on the drivers disk that came with my motherboard, went into the bios, and changed it from IDE to RAID. I then went into the raid bios, selected the two new harddrives and selected raid 0, saved everything and tried to load Windows and Windows refuses to boot up. I got an option to try fixing Windows but that didn't end up fixing anything. Finally, I was forced to go back into the bios and switch it from RAID back to IDE just to get Windows to boot up again. Does anyone know what I need to do in order to get this raid 0 to work? Thanks a lot in advance for your help!

Perhaps create a software RAID? You can do it in Windows through Control Panel --> Administrative Tools --> Computer Management --> Disk Management.

Having an issue with Parental Controls...

Hi, I'm having an issue with Parentel Controls.
I run several student labs set with parental controls on the systems for a higher education facility. We don't have restricted access to web content (our students need to look up a lot of things, even some that would be considered racey, it's an arts school) and when I set it to "Allow Unrestricted Access" to web content, about a week or so later I'll start getting reports that content is being blocked. I go to check, and sure enough the controls are set to "restrict access to content".
I've had two interations of this issue thus far and it's a pane to go through each system (there are a lot of systems) and manually reconfigure them back to default.
Any tips?

My son could not interact with sites (log in, post) but he could access them (when parental controls were turned on). I had to go under "preferences" on Firefox (under his name) First go to the drop down the menu from the word "Firefox" then "Preferences" "Privacy" (at the top) then "Exceptions" on the right..... and add each address of the sites and pages I wanted to allow. That worked like a charm!! Maybe pull up the itunes STORE address, copy and paste it in "always allow" (you can choose "block" also.....) This is in Firefox PREFERENCES, not just the parental control section.....
Let us know if that helped! Apple was NO help. (I am an Apple fan, but I am not paying 49.99 to get a question answered by someone who didn't sound like he knew anything, anyway...) I think when you pay for a computer you deserve to have ALL the features work... Is that too much to ask?

Having trouble setting up my website. It's probably a silly mistake.

So I've registered a domain and hosting plan with A Simple Orange which had a pretty good deal since I had a coupon for 20% off. I've tried using Joomla to manage my website, but I couldn't get the hang of it. So I'm trying out iWeb 09' now and just having trouble setting it up. I've gone to me.com and added my website and added the CNAME correctly I hope. Here is a picture. http://imgur.com/XI8Lw.png
Next I opened iWeb and setup MobileMe in the preferences panel. I've tried publishing the information from iWeb to my website, but my home page doesn't change. You can see here at RyanSchefer.com that it's just plan

No. Your CNAME setting is not correct. The CNAME and web.me.com are correct with web.me.com being your host. However, your domain name is incorrect - don't understand why you have put mobileme before it? You just enter either your domain name on its own so domain.com or you need to set up two separate CNAME entries, one being for www, CNAME, web.me.com and then one being @, CNAME, web.me.com. The @ stands for your domain name and the www is your sub domain.
Try altering this and it should work okay.

Having trouble setting up email accounts in the mail app?

Hi Apple community,
I am having trouble setting up my email accounts with the osX mail application. I have two accounts, an outlook and my college email through google. When I try to add the outlook account the prompt says that it cannot connect to the server and when I try my college mail i get the following prompt.
"Trying to log in to the Exchange server “autodiscover-s.outlook.com” failed. Make sure the email address and password you entered are correct, then click Continue."
Please note that my college account is run by gmail and ends in murraystate.edu
Thanks, Will.

Hey will,
okay for your college email. Heres what you do.
Try adding your email and wait for the message to come up
Trying to log in to the Exchange server “autodiscover-s.outlook.com” failed. Make sure the email address and password you entered are correct, then click Continue."
Once it does, you will notice 2 extra boxes One says username and the other password. You will notice that the username will not have @murraystate.edu
Add this and continue and this should now be added as an email account and should be able to receive emails as normal.
For your outlook emails, I would recommend using the following article to set it up. It is fairly straightforward.

Having trouble setting up FaceTime. keep giving me Apple ID password

having trouble setting up FaceTime. trouble at verifying use I'd. I have my email setup with different password since I have tw setup email. my Apple ID has different password. same email name.

Hello sangjaimepark,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with activating FaceTime. I recommend reviewing the article below for FaceTime activation issues. When trying to activate FaceTime, you will need to use the email address you use for your Apple ID and your Apple ID password and not your email password:

Having trouble setting up network

Hi guys,
I just recently moved to a new house and am having trouble setting up the network with my airport extreme. There is a cable modem that is networked to the house so that every room has an outlet.
I connected the airport to one of the outlets with my macbook and when I create network, I cannot connect to the internet wirelessly even though the macbook detects a network when I set it up with bridge mode. But hard wired through the router I can surf the web as I am doing right now.
When I hit share an IP address, the internet does not work at all. It seems to work fine with my old netgear router, but would prefer using the airport.
I've also reset the airport as well with still no luck. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Have you tried powering down the modem for 5 min and then turning on with the ethernet connected to the WAN port of airport extreme?

Having trouble setting up e-mail on new iPhone 4s. I would like to sync with my outlook mail, contacts

I am having trouble setting up my email and syncing my outlook calendar wiht my new iphone 4s.

How do you connect to the internet?
Most of the time, the problem lies here. You can try a couple of things. First, try only 3G or carrier data. Then, try only wifi. If that still doesn't work, your only other option is to try a different hotspot.
I had the same problem before when I updated to iOS 4.3. I thought it was the update at first. I usually have the carrier data turned off because my plan doesn't have an unlimited provision for it. I forgot that I also switched ISPs from DSL to a visibility unit package - meaning I had to setup my laptop so that I could get wifi from it. I realized this when I visited a friends house that I knew I could connect properly before.
My problem was with my laptop. It seems that Little Snitch blocks the ports being used for mail and push notifications. I haven't figured it out exactly since I still can't get email when I'm using my laptop connection. But, it works fine when I'm using ONLY 3G or both/wifi only if connected to a different hotspot.
Hope that helps.

HT1420 How do I set up parental control on book downloads? My daughter and I use the same Apple ID info.

How do I set up parental controls on my apple account, I want to censor the books that she's dowloading. We use the same account Thanks!

Turning off in-app purchases and the App Store itself would be the best bet for you. You can always unlock these features as needed and lock them again.
Apart from restricting purchases, there are a number of other restrictions you can setup. You can even setup a safe browser with remote parental controls from the App Store, like the one from Mobicip. You may find this tutorial to be helpful: How to setup Parental Controls on the iPad.
Hope this helps.

I'm having trouble setting up my new 5s. it won't connect to phone service and my old phone is still getting all my messages

i'm having trouble setting up my new 5s. it won't connect to phone service and my old phone is still getting all my messages

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_5
the iPhone5 has 1GB of RAM, and internal storage of 16, 32, or 64GB.
It does not use SD cards.
Fake iphones are really Android phones using the skin of iOS6.
Click on the App Store icon. If it takes you to Apple's App Store, then it's a real iPhone.
But if you are directed to Google Play, then I'm afraid you've gotten a copy.

I am having trouble setting up my time capsule. the amber light is flashing. i have a Verizon FIOS network that i use for the internet (WiFi) and do not want to configure the Time Capsule to do that function. I just want the Time Capsule to back up.

Simple.. bridge the TC.. in the apple utility in the NAT and DHCP area.
Plug it into the FIOS router.. you can turn off wireless in the TC if you want.. or use it.. it can work faster if you are nearby and can select 5ghz.. but up to you.
