How do I fix Failed to authenticate to the server error?

I am trying to set up OS X server and didn't get much past the accept terms screen.

So, to confirm, you are running on your iMac OS X 10.8.2? If you go choose menu
 | About This Mac
what version number is displayed?
If run System Preferences | System | Users & Groups and select your account (if you are logged on it will show you as 'Current User') does it say 'Admin' under your name?
Yes Apple advertises OS X server as 'easy to use' however I would describe it as a Lamborghini with training wheels — take away the training wheels and you can quickly have an out of control vehicle. It has many open source applications (some very hard to grasp) with a 'cute wrapper' around them.
It will require a committment of time and effort to have it working properly. I would highly recommend that you get your hands on some documentation on installing OS X server (forget the Apple stuff) and study up on it before installing OS X Server.
I recommend this book to everyone (again I don't work for Amazon or the publisher) to read up on before installing OS X Server.
Here is link to the book:
Apple Pro Training Series: OS X Server Essentials: Using and Supporting OS X Server on Mountain Lion
Here is a posting I did recently about starting with OS X Server:

Update: An Apple rep called me today to update the status of my return. I was told that the replacements for the BLACK iPad 2's was still another 3 weeks out (at least) so they offered me a brand new WHITE 16GB iPad 2. I could have that or continue waiting. I opted to go ahead and accept the offer of a new white one. Worst case scenario if I don't like the white one I have buddy that just bought a 16GB black one that he would be willing to swap it.

How can I download itunes when I get the following errors ..ituneshelper did not install correctly error 7..I .have installed and uninstalled a dozen times with various fixes...b noir for example and used Revo to clean up.
This has been a problem for 6 weeks now, I retry when I have time and patience and use my other laptop which is also Windows 7 and runs with no problem.
Every attempt fails when all seems fine on the desktop and I try to log on to Itunes I get the errors.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (If this won't uninstall press on)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

How do i fix a small bend in the corner on my macbook pro?

It depends upon the bend and the exact location. In all likelihood replacement will be the most efficient method of repair or just ignoring it.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

How do you fix a R6025 pure virtual function call error? When I try to search for music, iTunes freezes & returns this message.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Failed to authenticate with the device at ip.ip.ip.ip using TELNET

Hi!
I can no longer use CCA :-)
I tried everything, but when I enter user and password after waiting a few tens of seconds I get the following error window: "Failed to authenticate with the device at ip.ip.ip.ip using TELNET. TELNET access is required for access to voice configuration. Cannot continue. Exiting CCA."
Given that I do not understand the need to use the 'telnet', I verified that UC500 was reachable from the PC via telnet. But CCA 2.2.5 don't work and I find no reason, even logging on to see go console error messages or anything else that turn me to the solution. Before removing CCA and back to 2.2.4, I see if I could solve the problem somehow.
I tried to see what was going on the network with wireshark:
Time          Source          Destination     Protocol     Info

...but do not understand why the PC ends the connection!
NB: Obviously the username and password are correct and the UC does not report login errors.
Can anyone give me a hint? 1k thanks

If you have a beta copy of iOS6
1. You are a developer and will know how to transition from beta
to release version and to use the Develpoer forum
2. You have a pirate copy of the beta and no-one on this Apple hosted Forum can help you

Photo Booth encountered an error when trying to save your photos. Your photos cannot be saved at this time.
How do i fix this?

I had the same issue, as suggested by others on similar question I checked my permissions and they were fine.
This worked for me
1) First saved the photos from my current Photo Booth library
2) Deleted the photo booth library folder
3) Created a new admin user
4) Copy the photo booth library from the new user and paste it in your user (where the previous photo booth library was)
5) You can then delete the new user you created.

If you have any podcasts in your iTunes library you should see a Podcasts sync setting tab to the right when you connect your phone and click on its name on the left sidebar (see image below). On this tab check to sync podcasts and sync your phone.

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)

I uploaded 2 x small Wordpress sites to Azure this morning using the local Git repository on my iMac. They worked fine when I checked them earlier and now I see the websites are not loading correctly with 30+ errors on each effecting all .css, .js and
.jpg files - using view source, these are the error messages.

Hi,
I tested your site 1, when I open http://goo.gl/VONbHc, it direct me to
http://templestudios.azurewebsites.net/ ,so I think you create templestudios as your azure website name. it seems that the page will go directory to another page, one image html code as below.

IP Helper Service causes Session "" failed to start with the following error: 0xC000000D

I have a Windows 8.1 Pro version. In the event viewer I can see that the error `Session "" failed to start with the following error: 0xC000000D´ is registered every time I boot my laptop.
I am 100% sure that this is related to the IP Helper Service (iphlpsvc) because the error is logged every time I manually restart the service.

Hi,
IP Helper (service name 'iphlpsvc') is apparently designed to improve a Windows PC's support for IPv6 network protocol.
I suggest you try enable the dump collection by copying following words into notepad, saving it as dump.reg and importing it:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\localdumps\iphelper.exe]
"DumpFolder"=hex(2):63,00,3a,00,5c,00,63,00,72,00,61,00,73,00,68,00,64,00,75,\
00,6d,00,70,00,73,00,00,00
"DumpCount"=dword:00000010
"DumpType"=dword:00000001
"CustomDumpFlags"=dword:00000000
Once the error appears again, please find the crashdump file under c:\.

Not according to my computer - (actually its at least 4 years now) which among so many other errors have haunted me from the day I bought it and took it home. I've spent literally a year of time out of the 5 I've had this laptop which btw is a home computer,
not a small business pc - searching, trying fixes that didn't work, searching more trying fixes that worked only to have the same scenario begin again 2-3 months down the road OR new ones pop up - which starts the process all over again. I'm now getting BSOD's
about once every 2-3 days with no reason in the event viewer.
And I continue to work on all the errors, warnings and critical errors with no results. I just wish Microsoft would fix these issues instead of developing new OS's that not only carry these problems over but add new ones to each new OS. Don't misunderstand
me. I like Windows, in fact I'm one of the very few graphic artists out there that prefer it over a MAC but its quite disheartening to be continually working on these issues to say the least.
Of course, it's just my opinion....I could be wrong!

How do I fix Failed to authenticate to the server error?
