How do I change system settings so that users are not required to enter the mac's admin pw in order to join a wifi network?

how do I change system settings so that users are not required to enter the mac's admin pw in order to join a wifi network?
Right now my macbook pro requires an admin password before connecting to a new wifi network. In other words when a user that is not an admin tries to connect to a new wifi network the pop up displays indicating that it is locked and an admin password is required.
Is there a way to remove this restriction so that a non admin can connect to wifi without the mac's admin password.

You can enable / disable this option in System Preferences:
System Preferences > Network > Wi-Fi > Advanced > Wi-Fi tab > Require administrator authorization to: Change networks

    I recently switched over from Apple to Sony and I would like to know how I can change my settings so that all my iCloud emails are forwarded to my Gmail account?

    Log in on iCloud.com and go to Mail. In Mail, at the bottom left you should see a gear icon. Click on it, go to Settings (or Preferences, I'm doing this from memory), and in there you'll find an option to forward your iCloud email to another service.

    How can i set songs within a playlist, or an entire playlist, so that they are not included when using the shuffle function on IPOD Classic?
    Is this possible?

    You can set any song to Skip when shuffling.
    In your iTunes Library, highlight the song and right-click/Get Info. On the Options tab is the Skip when shuffling box. Select that and then Sync the iPod with your Library.

  • How do i change my settings so that a file automatically opens in Office Word

    I am using Firefox as my search engine and when I open files it used to ask me if it was ok to open them in Office Word. It used to open them perfectly. I guess I clicked something wrong and now the files open automatically in Microsoft Works Word Processor. How can I change it back to open then files automatically in Office Word?

    There are a few different possibilities when Firefox doesn't handle downloads automatically.
    First, can you check the Options dialog to make sure Firefox saved your preference?
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Applications
    It takes some time for the list to load... then in the search box above the list type '''word''' to filter it down to the entries for Word documents. Do these show that you want to Open with MS Word?
    If those check out but Firefox isn't doing it, there are two possibilities:
    (1) Website might be using a generic content type header.
    Firefox doesn't actually inspect the document or check the file extension. Instead, it relies on the server to send a content type such as "application/msword" to look up the proper handling. If the server just says this is a binary file of non-specific type, then Firefox always prompts you for instructions.
    If this is the problem, then you would find that Firefox sometimes handles Word documents correctly and sometimes doesn't depending on the site.
    (2) Download handler settings file might be corrupted.
    The longer you have Firefox, the more likely that extra lines will creep into this file and potentially cause conflicting instructions. You can rename the file and have Firefox generate a fresh one.
    Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
    * (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
    * type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
    In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a separate window listing files and folders.
    Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
    * (menu bar) File > Exit
    Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''mimeTypes.rdf''' to something like mimeTypes.old
    Start Firefox back up again and it should create a new settings file with default settings. Any improvement on the next download or two?

  • How do I change my settings so that my iMessages don't say they're from my iCloud or Mac ID name?

    I did something to my settings that now changed my number / name to my icloud email or my Apple ID name (which is my iCloud email).  So, people who have me in their contacts AND people who I message for the first time, both get a message from my iCloud email / Apple ID name, rather than my name or phone number.

  • I just updated my firefox today and now when I click on my popups or additional windows they pop up full screen. They used to pop up much smaller how do I change my settings so that these pop ups will be smaller?

    This happens when I click on my links they pop up as the full screen not the size they used to show up. I have tried other browsers and the pop ups have not changed in size like Firefox. I will be more than happy to provide screen shots to fully demonstrate my concern.

    I believe this is more about the default settings of the pop-ups. I have tried the 3 methods above and they have not solved my issue.
    As I have stated before this issue is not happening with other web browsers.
    Mozilla is better compatible with the program I am running.
    It seems you know your way around Mozilla so pleas help.
    P.S. I have taken screen shots and attached them to a word doc so I could best illustrate my issue with commentary and arrows but it will not save to my post. I have even tried posting it as a PDF.

  • How can I change my settings so that when I open a new tab, it opens a designated home page instead of a blank 'Untitled' page?

    I want to be able to set my Firefox tabs so that when I open a new tab, it displays my home page. Right now, when I open a new tab, I get a blank page that's just 'Untitled'.

    You can look at one of these extensions:
    * NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    * New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

  • How can I configure hyphenation settings so that InDesign does not hyphenate already hyphenated word

    For example:
    twenty-seven
    It's okay to break at the hypen in the word, but I don't want either twenty or seven to be hyphenated. Is it possible to configure this in the hyphenation instructions? I don't see a way to do it other than manually adding every hyphenated word to the user dictionary.
    Thanks!

    A super-easy way to prevent this is to add a discretionary hyphen after the hyphen in a hyphenated word. This can be easily accomplished by doing a global find-and-replace.
    Find: -
    Replace: -^-
    This will allow all hyphenated words to break ONLY after the hyphen.
    Hyphenation settings should be determined based on the overall text. It is good to specify the minimum characters a word should have to be hyphenated — to prevent the hyphenation of very short words — but if you set that minimum too high just to avoid double hyphenated words, you may end up with too loose lines of text.

  • I need to know how to create a dual boot so that I can have Windows 7 and the Mac OS

    I need this so that I can have Microsoft Access, because it's not available for Mac..
    And, I have so many computer games that I have for Windows that I want to play on my Mac.
    Help please!

    You do not open it yet.
    First you need to read this: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Boot_Camp_Install-Setup_Late2010.pdf
    This will tell you when the Windows image is required.
    Prepare for this on all fronts first ... backup/clone, and read the ENTIRE document.
    Then ask about what to do with the Windows ISO. 
    At least in my humble opinion.  This can go badly quickly if you miss a step.

  • Automator for changing system settings?

    Here's my issue: I have an external monitor connected to my 2010 Macbook Pro with OSX Snow Leopard. I do all my work when I'm at home on the larger monitor and use the other screen for iTunes. I use spaces alot, and so when using my external monitor, I put iTunes to open on all spaces so that it's always handy. When I go out with my laptop, I have to change the spaces settings back to iTunes only being open in one space.
    It's not a big issue, but does anyone know how to use automator (or by any other means) to automatically change the system settings so that my computer can, on detecting I have an external monitor plugged in, change the spaces settings for iTunes? (and preferably back again when it doesn't have the external monitor plugged in).

    Hi there :)
    You can connect directly to the DB without a DSN like this:
    url = "jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=<YOUR DB LOCATION HERE>;
    try
    Class.forName ("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
    icuCon = DriverManager.getConnection (url);
    catch (Exception e)
    You will obviously replace <YOUR DB LOCATION HERE> with the location of your database for example you can set the url of the database like this:
    url = "jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=" +
    System.getProperty ("user.dir") + System.getProperty ("file.separator") +
    "DBFolder" + System.getProperty ("file.separator") + "DB.mdb";
