  • How can I retrieve a forgotten password for my home wi-fi network?

    I have a wi-fi network at home for my iMac, printer, phone and two iPads. On trying to connect a new device I discovered that the password I thought was correct will not work. How can I retrieve the correct password from one of the devices already on the network? If I cannot to that, how can I change the network password for all the devices?

    Hi ...
    Open Keychain Access located in HD > Applications > Utilities
    Select Passwords on the left.
    Type Wi-Fi (or the name of your Wi-Fi network0 in the search field top right corner of the Keychain Access window.
    Then right or control click that keychain then click Get Info then selec the Attributes tab then click:  Show password
    You may need to entier your admin password to proceed.

  • How do I retrieve lost notes and pictures

    How do I retrieve lost notes and pictures

    Not sure about pictures, but for iphone notes:
    After many hours of trying everything to retrieve my lost notes (several just disappeared overnight for no reason) it dawned on me that they were linked to one of my email accounts (In my case yahoo).
    I logged into that account directly from the yahoo site (not iphone mail!) and "Voila!" all of my notes, even the disappeared ones, were there!
    Took some cut & pasting and I'm back in business.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I retrieve my keychain password?

    My MacBook forced me to make a OS update, so it shut down and restarted. After the new installation had been made, it asked me to log in. I thought it needed my Apple ID and password, but it was the OS log in and password. I did not know the password so then it asked if I wanted to creat a password keychain.
    Any help how I can retrieve the OS password or keychain password?
    I just keep getting dialogue boxes that I am blocked from because I don't know the password.

    If you are being coninutally prompted to enter the local items keychain password, this might correct it: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5362.

  • How can I retrieve lost pictures on my ipad

    How can I retrieve lost pictures on my iPad?

    Did you delete the pics, or you just can't find them on your iPad?
    If you deleted them, they are gone as there is no Trash Can or Recycke Bin. If you have a backup, retrieve the pics from your backup.

  • I had to restart my mac and couldn't remember my password and had to create a new keychain, help?? i just want to stop all these pop up screens coming up now, how do i retrieve my original password?

    I'm not quite sure I understand what you're saying? Have you gained access to your mac, but getting pop-ups about your old password? If you have access, you could always copy important files and reinstall OS X from scratch. Also you could use the Mac as an external hard drive if you have another Mac doing the same. Those are probably the easiests ways. If it was easy to just go ahead and change passwords as so, security would be an issue. How is your computer locked? Is it a filevault password, or how much do you have access?

  • HT204053 How can I retrieve my iCloud password? It's not working with the apple id password.

    I had to reset my apple I'd password yesterday & now my iCloud is not logging in. I tried using both my old apple I'd password & the new one that I just reset. Neither work. How can I retrieve my iCloud password?

    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

  • How do I retrieve bookmarks and passwords from a Windows backup, after OS re-install?I have a full Windows backup of my machine, pre re-installl

    I had to reinstall Vista 7 OS. I have a full Windows backup of my machine, prior to the re-installation. How do I retrieve the bookmarks and passwords from the backup? I understand they're stored in various files a ".default" folder in C:\users\username\appdata\roaming\mozilla\firefox\profiles. When I try restoring the folder, the files get skipped... When I try browsing for the individual files, I don't see them!

    Many thanks for your responses... After a little scouting on the web, I have found THE solution... This is all due to the way Windows 7 Backup works, and will NOT let restore apps...
    ("File restore in Windows7 is not designed to restore back applications. This is because the application state is spread across potentially multiple folders, files & registry. Windows7 file backup is not aware of where all the state is spread to be able to restore the entire application accurately as such information is internal to the application. Restoring application partially might corrupt the application and render the application unusable. So we do not allow restoring applications from file backup.
    In case files under C:\Program Files etc. are chosen for restoring, we block restoring files from backup to such locations as it might cause the applications to not function.'')
    What one has to do when restoring is to NOT attempt to restore to the original location, but to select the radio button which allows you to type a path where you want the files restored and type in the path of the original location!!! Then select copy and replace...A little quirky (and tedious), but it works!
