How do I create an IChat account with 10.6.8?

I keep getting routed to a page that says:
Symptoms
iChat's "Get an iChat account" no longer works in Mac OS X v10.6.x.
Products Affected
iChat, Mac OS X 10.6
Resolution
This feature has been replaced by iCloud, which requires OS X Lion v10.7.2 or later.
With OS X Lion, you can use an iCloud account ending in @me.com or @mac.com as your iChat account. A free AIM account can be acquired (or configured) separately at the AIM website.
I'm clearly don't know much but just wanted to set up an IChat account and don't know what to do now. My macbook says it doesn't need any updates? Can someone help me?
Thanks so much

Hi,
Alternatively Apple IDs that end with @mac.com can be used as Valid AIM names in iChat.
You can still register for these Here
The Password you use should be 16 characters or Less (AIM Server limits)
You also need to link it to an Existing email address.
This cannot be one that you already use with another Apple ID
(If you only have one Email Address you use it is simpler to use the AIM registration method).

How do I create a second account with my husband's name and email address?

My account works fine. I read about Profile Manager, but couldn't find it. I can find Account 1 with my name. I see Account 2 listed, but no name or email address even though I typed that information into some form along the way.

Assuming that you are happy to share Thunderbird, and be able to see each others' messages, then there's no need for the profile manager.
If you want to keep things separate, then it's better to set up separate user accounts in the operating system. Each of you would then have your own private space for data and settings, including each having your own Thunderbird profile.
So, your husband already has his own distinct email address and account, set up with an email provider?
In Thunderbird, you'd use '''File|New|Existing Mail Account…''' (in the traditional menu) or '''[≡]|New Message|Existing Mail Account…''' (with the Application Menu button) to add his account to Thunderbird. I think you may have already done this given that you say you have entered the email address (and its password?) already.
I think at this point a screenshot of Thunderbird may help us understand what you do and do not see.

Use Paint or similar to blot out any data you'd prefer not to share.

How do I create a default account with an ACS Server

Has anyone seen this. I have an ACS Solution engine appliance with Several devices using it for authentication and accounting. It all seems to work great.
When I add a new device (router or switch) i noticed that it will let me login via the acs based authentication even before i even setup the aaa-client account for this device in the acs appliance. I do have the tacacs key and all the appropriate information on the router or switch but i dont have an entry for it in the acs appliance yet. This has puzzled me Where is this default account setup. I have another ACS server (Windows Based) It seems to have a completely different behavior when it encounters an unconfigured AAA-client compared to the ACS Appliance. Can anyone tell me how to configure the ACS server to do the same and where these configuration options exist?
This really concerns me from a security perspective.

Hmm, ACS should not (by default) accept traffic from any old device.
Could it be you have a wild-card IP Addr in your ACS network config somewhere that accidentally includes the new device?
Or possibly a DNS name (instead of an IP Addr) that resolves to the address of the new device?
Try changing the shared secret in the device - you should find you get errors in the Failed Attempts Log.
Also check the Passed Authenications report as this included the ACS network config device name in the Access-Device column.

How do I create one Family account with multiple sub web sites?

It seems like this would already have been discussed. I have searched and have not found what I am looking for.
What I would like is:
web.mac.com/myfamilyaccountname/family
then I might have one for whatever reason:
web.mac.com/myfamilyaccountname/hans
and my wife would want hers:
web.mac.com/myfamilyaccountname/michelle
She has her own laptop and would like to post to her subsite but under the family account.
Thanks

Hans,
You could purchase a .Mac Family Account.
But, based on the way you have demonstrated the urls you want, all of you could use a single .Mac account and just publish to it with whatever machine you choose. Just configure each machine to the account using System Preferences, and publish to it. As long as each site is named differently, they will not overwrite one another.

HT4897 I created an alias precisely because I wanted to make it the new default name and then quickly realized it wasn't possible. How long after deleting the alias will it become available again so that I can create a new account with it?

I'm trying to make iCloud mail my primary email but I'm concerned that I may have lost the perfect email address forever.

I have the same problem. After our wedding I've created an alias ([email protected]) to my actual AppleID Account ([email protected]). Now I'd the idea to delete the alias and my actual AppleID to create a new AppleID with ([email protected]).
Is there really no possibilty to do this?
Thanks in advance for quick and positive feedback.

How to create a US account with the same apple ID as my current account

I received a US itunes card given as a gift and it will not redeem in the itunes store since it says I need to have a US itunes account which I do not. Mine is from another country.
I emailed support and they said I could not use the itunes card nor can I transfer the credit to my itunes account for my country(even if it is still in US$). Though they did say that It was possible to create a US account with the same apple ID. I tried it but when I try to register a US account, in the end it says that the apple ID is taken.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

You can't use the same ID because it is possible to change countries on accounts. The other person using your ID is you! However, technically you can only use the store in a country if you are actually present in the country, and you have to have a credit card billed to an address in the country as proof.
I guess the person at Apple isn't familiar with hte details of thir own legal documents, and you would either have to try to change country on your account (which may run into issues) or start a second account in hte other country (which again may not be easy, nor legal).
The iTunes Store in a country is intended only for use by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store. You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes.
E.g., "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html#SERVICE
Find somebody you know in the USA and give them a nice present.

HT204053 how can i create multiple icloud accounts for my family members

how can i create multiple icloud accounts for my family members

Thanks... I appreciate the reply. Since I wrote the previous email, I actually went and changed my apple id (the main id) and the documentation I looked at said iCloud will set mail up automatically(?)... I had it working before.
Also, I tried to manually set up the ID via the Mail Accounts screen(s) and I can't figure out what my server information is... Pop or Imap? What's the outgoing server and the incoming server?
I typically have never had problems setting up mail accounts (in apple mail) with no problem.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance!

How can I create my icloud account

How can I create my icloud account?.

Hey there!
It sounds like you are wanting to create an iCloud account. Take a look at this info from the following article:
How do I sign up for iCloud?
You can sign up for iCloud on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later, or through System Preferences on a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.4 or later. Just follow the setup instructions for your iOS device or Mac.
You may need to verify the email address that you use for your Apple ID. See Frequently Asked Questions About Apple ID for more information.

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Hello gerryfromhatfield,
There is a process, an article about how to find your apple id and get access to it. It is named Apple ID: Finding your Apple ID found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5625?viewlocale=en_US
You start at the top, and work your way down.
If you can't remember your Apple ID, you can find it by using the password retrieval process at My Apple ID. Follow these steps to recover your Apple ID name:
Go to My Apple ID and click "Find your Apple ID."
Complete all the required fields that might be associated with your Apple ID.
Note: If multiple email addresses have an Apple ID, select your current or most recently used email address.
All the best,
Sterling

Validation Rules: create a dummy account with constant value 0

Hi,
I need to define a control like the following:
TA00000 >= 0
I think that I need to create a dummy account with constant value 0 and compare TA00000 against it. I need help to create the dummy account because I'm not sure if I have to use a script logic or not. If anybody could help, I would be very grateful.
Thanks in advance.
Almudena

Hi,
Thank you for your answer. It works perfectly.
I have other question related to validation rules. I need to create a validation like this:
A39300 + A39110 + A39130 + A39010 >= H97300
It is not supported in BPC NW version to leave blank in ACCOUNT_R in details of validation rule. Do you know how I could define this control?
Thanks in advance.

How to Manually Create Wi-Fi Profiles with Open Authentication & WEP Encryption

I clicked Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center> Set up a new connection or network > Manually connect to a wireless network, but I wasn't able to select WEP for Encryption type when I selected
Open System for Security type. Why not? I hear Open authentication & WEP encryption is more secure than WEP authentication & encryption. Doesn't Windows support Open authentication & WEP encryption?
I tried it on several computers: Win8.1/8/7, hp/DELL/ASUS/acer, but on neither of them was I able to select Open authentication and WEP encryption at the same time. Wi-Fi is enabled, and every user account that I tried it from is admnistrator
one.
I can manually create Wi-Fi profiles with WEP authentication and WEP encryption. What I wanted to create is, however, those with Open authentication and WEP encryption.
I'll appreciate your help.

Hi,
Acctually speaking, Both type of WEP encryption is not secure. I'm agree with SenneVl's opinion, it would be better to use WPA encryption. You can refer to the contents of the link belwo for more details:
