    How do I get past the login screen to pair my new wireless keyboard and trackpad when the old ones are water damaged and don't work

    Have you tried pulling the batteries out of the damaged ones so that they are completely off; then shutdown your Mac Mini via the power button on the back right. Turn on your new keyboard and trackpad then power your Mini back up? The auto detection should find your new keyboard and trackpad.

  • How do I turn off the Log In Screen that asks for my Password?

    I recently installed FCP 6 on my MBP, and ever since then when I turn my computer on from being shut down, it ask me for my password before loading up.
    It used to not do this, but now it does. I don't have a password set, so I just hit enter and it loads, but I would like for it to go back to where it doesn't ask for the password.
    Where is this setting at? All I can find is the "set password from sleep". Thanks for the help.

    System Preferences -> Accounts panel -> Login Options -> click the lock and enter admin password -> click to select your accountname in left pane -> select that accountname to login automatically.

  • Can I enable the root user account from the log in screen when I am locked out of the machine?

    Hello everyone,
    I am working on my friends mac to get it ready to sell. I went into the advanced options of the user and changed the name of the account. That's all I changed. I did read the warning that said if anything was changed it could cause damage, that's why I only changed the name of the user account. I didn't want to mess with anything else. Well, needless to say, I am locked out of the machine. Apparently the root user, system administrator, account was not enabled and I am stuck at the screen that I can get to with my installation disc. So how can I enable the root user account and get back onto the machine from the screen I am at? Can I enable the root user from terminal? I spent a good 8 hours yesterday researching this topic and have come up empty. Changing passwords from commands in terminal is not the problem. I am given just one account to choose from to log on and it's not accepting the password because of the changes I made in the advanced options menu.
    Is there any hope of getting this thing going again? Or have I just screwed myself over?
    Thanks for your help!
    Leah

    You can reset the password.

    Do you need to recover data from it before you sell it?  If not you can just wipe the disk and prepare it for sale.

  • How do you turn off the log file?

    How can I turn off the log file for WLS? Don't want the added overhead
    of logging during performance tests.
    Edwin

    The only way I know is:
    # startWebLogic.sh > /dev/null &
    Only if you are running on unix.

    I don't think you can turn off the system log file (weblogic.log). You can
    disable the HTTP specific logging with the following:
    weblogic.httpd.enableLogFile=<boolean>
    (defaults to true)

  • How do you turn off the auto select behavior when working with shape layers?

    How do you turn off the auto select behavior when working with shape layers?
    I am using either of the path selection tools to select only some of the paths on the layer. I have the proper layer targeted. I have the selection too auto select option turned off.
    If another layer has a path in that area, that layer becomes auto targeted and I get the wrong path. Turning off the layer is the only way to avoid this but then I have to  turn on the layer back on between making my selection and transforming to use the other layer as guide. Is there any way to stop this auto select? Locking the other layer does not stop the auto select, just prevents editing.

    As far as i know the move tool options don't have any effect on the path selection tools.
    You might try clicking on one of the path points or on the path itself with one of path selection tools and if you want to select multiple points
    you can shift click with the Direct Selection Tool or Alt click to select the entire path.
    more path shortcuts:

    miniDisplay to HDMI : How to turn off the Dual Monitor output when the adapter is attached and the TV is off ? And will keeping the adapter connected even if it is not in use, cause damage to the adapter ?

    I have my external monitor/tv setup of the left. If I leave the adapter attached with the TV off, I am still able to cross the border/boundry of my MBP screen ! As instead of detecting a TV, the MBP is detecting the adapter as a screen. I do not want to damage my thunderbolt/miniDisplay port by plugging and unpluggin the unit each and every time.

    You have to jailbreak your phone to do this, voiding all warranty & support. Just flip the Ring/Silent switch when you send.

    You can share it with other Macs under your control (not your neighbor's).  You just need to be logged in under the buying AppleID for updates or to download again.

    every time I go to a new site a bar is lowered and ask to update my plugin. I am using mac 10.4.11 G4 The new plugin will not work. How do I shut off the plugin update so I don't get this anoying bar ever time I go to a new web page. If there is no way to shut it off, I'll trash Firefox and go back to Safari. This just started and I'm tired of it.

    to turn off the messages about outdated plugins, enter "about:config" into the address bar of the browser, confirm the info dialog, then search for the preference named "plugins.hide_infobar_for_outdated_plugin" & double-click it in order to toggle it to "true".
    please also note that firefox 3.6.28 was the last build that ran on a powerpc, however if you want to use an up-to-date browser based on firefox you can switch to "tenfourfox" - the downside is it doesn't support plugins at all
    [[Firefox no longer works with Mac OS X 10.4 or PowerPC processors]]

  • How can you take off the volume limit?, How can you take off the volume limit?

    How can you take off the volume  limit on iPod touch ?

    Which "volume limit" do you mean?
    All iPods have a volume limit feature that you can set yourself and on your iPod, go into Settings/Music/Volume Limit. There, you can set the volume limit to maximum, which is the same as turning it off.
    However, if you mean the EU (European Union) volume restriction, on all iPods sold inside the EU, you cannot turn that off.
