How can we get the .mac password to stay?

I've finally decided to brave the potential address book loses in an attempt to sync them all together. Two of three are able to access the .mac. This one cant. It asks me to configure .Mac first. Ok, I try to do just that, but there's a problem adding my password into the .mac area of the system prefs. When I type in the password, it removes itself when I click on the iDisk tab. It says my password is missing, and I should put it in the .mac tab. Ok,i put it back, and it re-removes it. So I put it back, & click on "sync now ". It says, "You dont have a .Mac account, please configure .mac first." Yeah, fine, if it only let me. This OS is 10.2.8, the other two are 10.3.9 & 10.2.8.

How can I get the MAC address of my Apple TV?

How can I get the MAC address of my Apple TV? I currently do not have an HDMI device to connect it to, and the MAC is not listed on the box or the Apple TV itself.
(to answer the obvious, I am trying to pair it with an iPad, and I need to register the Apple TV for the network so the two can see each other)

As long as I know java doesn't have support to work on link-layer, only internet and transport layers. You may write simple native code. On windows, IP Helper functions, like SendARP allow you to pass an IP address and get the hardware address. You store the hardware address on your database/file and later, when that machine is off, you send a frame to the address you stored previous.

I haven't seen it on Linux, but if you need help let me know I'll check the Linux API's too.

How can i get the footer bar to stay, whilst page scrolls?

how can i get the footer bar to stay, whilst page scrolls?
at the moment, on my site, if the page is longer than the screen, it goes behind the footer,
but the foot bar moves up the page as yo scroll down to see the rest of the content.
any way of getting the footer to stay put, while body/page contant scrolls ?
thanks

You can use some css to do it...
#footer_id {
position:fixed;
bottom:0px;
<div id="footer_id">Your footer content</div>
The css above will lock your footer to the bottome of the browser window. As long as your footer <div> is last in your html, it will float over the top of everything on your page when the page is scrolled. If it's not last in the html, you'll need to add a z-index to get it on top of your other content in the stack.

How can I get the MAC address

My machine has two NIC's. I need to add another network interface, however when I do so it gets assigned to the same MAC address as the interface in use. Why is that and how can I determine the MAC address of the other card to be able to assign it to the new interface?
thanks

If necessary, change the value of local-mac-address? as follows:
eeprom local-mac-address?=true
When you reboot the system, the interfaces with factory-installed MAC addresses now use these factory settings, rather than the system-wide MAC address. Interfaces without factory-set MAC addresses continue to use the system-wide MAC address.

On the iPad Air, how can I get the lock screen to stay on longer like it was with an iPad 2?

Since getting an iPad Air the lock screen does not stay on but for a few seconds after startup, how can I adjust the time of it? It used to stay on with my iPad2.Thanks

I guess I never noticed that the swipe to open doesn't stay on very long. But, I've not found this to be an issue as I usally swipe the moment I have the option to swipe. It's been so long since I had a 2nd generation iPad that I honestly can't remember if it stayed on longer. It's still not a problem for me. There is no setting which will let you keep the swipe to open on longer, so it would reasonable for Apple to say there is nothing wrong with your iPad

How can I get the default password

I forgot the Password, How can I restart it

There is no default passcode for the iPod. If you forgot yur screen-lock passcode you need to connect yur iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes. If iTunes asks for the pascode and you can't enter the passcode or if you do not have the syncing computer you have to place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

Sry guys,I accidentally removed my mac appstore.How can I get it back ???I have mac os x 10.6.8 .someone tell me how can I get the mac appstore back????:(

hi

Yes, if you download and apply that update, the App Store will be reinstalled on your drive. Much faster though to retrieve it from a backup if you have one.
As stevejobsfan0123 noted though, if all you did was remove it from the Dock (not sure what you mean by "application list"), then it's still on the drive and all you need to do is put it back on the Dock.
Open the Applications folder on your hard drive. Is the App Store program in that folder? If so, there's nothing to restore or reinstall. Just drag and drop it anywhere on to the Dock to restore that icon to the Dock and you're done.

Connot get it to accept cookies; privacy settings are re-set each time after I change them. How can I get the privacy setting to stick and accept cookies?

I need to accept cookies to log into a technical site. I clear all cookies and the history and follow the instructions for setting privacy options to "Use custom settings for history" and to accept all cookies. When I go back to try logging into the site, it still tells me cookies aren't accepted. When I go back to Options-Privacy, the setting has been changed back to "Remember history" from "Use custom settings for history". I have done this about 5 times, trying various options, closing Firefox after making the change and starting it again - nothing works. How can I get the privacy settings to stay as I set them and accept cookies?

Blocking all cookies in Safari does not work. Deleted cookies will not stay deleted. There are numerous threads on this going back years, both in these forums and elsewhere. Many claim to have submitted the issue to Apple, but I have never seen anyone post a reply.
I have seen many suggested fixes that involve finding the cookies file, some including Terminal manipulations, and none seems to work universally. I can find noplace where Apple addresses this officially with an actual Apple-approved explanation or how-to.
Bottom line, your browser's security features should do what they claim: delete cookies. When they come back without ever even visiting another page, this is clearly not working in the way a reasonable user would expect.
Bottom line, Safari does not protect users' privacy in the way it pretends to and, after so many years of this issue, it appears that Apple wants it this way.
Having spent way too much time on this, I realize the choice is between Safari which is pretty well optimized; Firefox which is a lot pokier, at least for me; and Chrome, which I assume funnels personal information directly to Google.

Your description of the problem is a bit confusing. Do you have ONLY ONE Apple ID or do you have MORE THAN ONE?

How can I get the iCloud/iTunes password for my (now) deceased Father-in-Law's iMac? I have a list of his passwords, but nothing works! I know his email, but that account has been cancelled for security purposes, so we can't just request a new one. I tried his security questions to no avail.
Thanks

Since that password is tied to his Apple ID, you will need to contact Apple; as far as I know, it will be a somewhat lengthy procedure and you will need to furnish necessary paperwork (including a death certificate as far as I know). Best to either stop at an Apple store or call them to find out exactly what it is you need to do.
