    How to Block P*rn in Safari Version 8.0 MacBook Pro Yosemite?

    Hey aysar8,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines the “Web” pane of Parental Controls for user accounts. I believe the information may be helpful in solving your question:

    Note: while the article is titled for OS X Mavericks, the information is relevant for OS X Yosemite.

  • HT4798 I've forgotten my login password to my MacBook Pro

    I have a 13" MacBook Pro and I've forgotten my login password. It's running on mountain lion and didn't come with a installation/reset disk. How can I log into my computer? Please help. 

    Forgot Your Account Password
    For Snow Leopard and earlier
         Mac OS X 10.6- If you forget your administrator password
    For Lion/Mountain Lion
        Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
         When the menubar appears select Terminal from the Utilities menu.
         Enter resetpassword at the prompt and press RETURN. Follow
         instructions in the dialog window that will appear.
         Or see Reset a Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Password and
         OS X Lion- Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    If you cannot do the above then try this:
      1. Boot to Safe Mode by restarting and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-S keys until a black screen with white type appears.
      2. At the prompt, type the following commands pressing return after each command line:
         /sbin/fsck -yf
         If you do not receive a "Filesystem OK" message then repeat this command until
         you do.  If after seven tries you still do not receive a "Filesystem OK" message,
         then the system is corrupted and needs to be reinstalled.
         mount -uw /
         cd /private/var/db/netinfo
         mv local.nidb local.old
         rm ../.AppleSetupDone
         shutdown -r now
    The second-to-last command above will cause OS X to think that the operating system is newly installed, and when the new owner starts up the computer it will send him/her to the startup wizard where he/she can start a new user without reinstalling.
    This last method does not actually change a password. It simply removes the user accounts and lets you create an initial admin account as if the computer were new out of the box.
    How to reset the OS X password without a startup CD:
    Reboot into Single-user Mode. Enter the following and press RETURN after each command line
       1. Type fsck -fy
       2. Type mount -uw /
       3. Type passwd <username>
    I have never tried this method myself.

  • How do I add a computer to network with my MacBook Pro?

    I'm having difficulty getting my new MacBook Pro to recognize my PC on my home network in order to print.  The MacBook Pro is not accepting the software for the hp printer.  The message window states "...can't open the hp-all-in-one installer because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."

    You need to go to the HP website and download the current installer. That one you are using is about six years old.
    Can you connect the printer directly to the Mac? If so, you should be able to have it find the correct drivers by adding the printer in the Print & Scan system prefs.

  • Printing from InDesign asking for computer login password

    Hi. Just got new MacPro, CS4 Design Premium. Every time printing from InDesign asking for computer login password. Never happened with CS3. Is there any way to avoid job holding in printer's dialog box, waiting for authentification?  No problems printing from Acrobat, Photoshop or Entourage etc. Checked computer preferences, nothing shows permission/security restrictions are applied. What could cause holding print jobs from InDesign?
    Here's what it says in Status field: On Hold (Authentification required)...so I have to click “Resume” every time, enter password and only then it prints.
    Printer: HP5100 laserJet. HP did not associated this issue with printer or drivers. Please help. Thanks!

    Thanks for your help, Marvin!
    Sharing has been set up, PW is in keychain. Still asking for "authenification"..
    After talking to Adobe tech support, here's the answer:
    "Issue:  When attempting to print, customer is continually asked to authenticate.
    Resolution:  Printer is possibly too old to understand the print data InDesign is outputting. Try updating drivers or using a newer printer".
    I guess I will request new printed from management, mine is 2003...

  • How can I turn off my password on my MacBook Pro?

    I (somehow) created a password whenever my MacBook Pro is either turned on or awaken from sleep mode because I was having issues with my roommates. They have since moved out, and I cannot remember how I created the password, or how to turn it off completely. I went into System Preferences>Security & Privacy, but don't see any option of turning it off completely, just changing the time it goes to sleep and asks for a password to turn back on.
    Thank you.
