How does one set a password a start-up?

My mac book pro with retina display is operating on OS X Version 10.9.2 and it was built in 12/2012.  How do I set a password at start-up?  The answers I find on line are for older mac book pros and haven't helped me.  Thanks in advance.

Have you tried going to System Preferences > Users and Groups and set a password for each user on the system?
Did you setup this MacBook Pro out of the box without any user accounts or passwords?

    That's not possible in Adobe Reader - you will need to use a PDF creation or editing program such as Adobe Acrobat.

    M Parker, 
    Yes, since you are trying to keep things separate, that is exactly what you would do.

  • How does one set databse parameters in Tomcat to run a servlet?

    Hi, I am trying to run a applet-servlet code, downloaded from the web. According to the installation instructions, the following is stated:
    Database Parameters. You can provide different database parameters to the servlet. These parameters are set during the administration of the servlet.
    dbDriver - name of the database driver class name (default = sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver)
    dbURL - complete database URL (default = jdbc:odbc:StudentDatabase)
    userid - user id (default = <none>)
    passwd - password (default = <none>)
    I am running TOMCAT on a Windows2000 machine. My question is how to does one set the parameters in TOMCAT. What is the default userid and password for TOMCAT.
    Any help/advise is appreciated in advance. Thanks.Regards.

    May be parameters must be set in web.xml in your war

  • How does one get huey pro to start up when computer starts in morning

    Huey Pro is a sensor that measures and monitors the light in the room so that colors are rendered as acccurately as possible.  Once I calibrated the screen and device, it should fire up when I restart the computer but it dos not.  the icon in the system folder when clicked, says that the system preference folder needs to restart, the it will fire up. 
    So How does one get this to start early.
    Robert

    Hi Robert
    I am not sure that you can make the Huey Pro work correctly.Worked fine on windows but it was the one programme for me that I have never had success with on the Mac.
    I have checked the Huey web site for info but the support seems to have stopped.
    So the only way I can do it is to wait until the Icon is in the top right section of the screen,note that a white cross is in it and then click on the Icon in the dock open up the programme until the Start bit occurs then just click the close button.That fixes it for me.

  • How does one set up a file sharing password?

    Hi,
    My wife and I use the same Airport Extreme station to access the Internet and each other’s machine. Every time one of us wants to connect to the other machine via AFP, a dialog box springs up that has radio buttons, giving the choice of ‘Registered User’ or ‘Guest.’
    Where, on the serving computer, can one set up a ‘registered user’ with a password? Would doing so allow the registered user a wider access than only the ‘Drop Box?’
    Thanks,
    Klaus

    "Registered user", in effect, means "OS X user on the machine being shared". So, you could, right now, click on "registered user" and log in to your wife's Mac using her login details (and vice versa). If you log in as a user, as opposed to a guest, you get access to that user's entire home folder. If that user is also an administrator, you get access to the whole system drive.
    Guests actually have access to the "Public" folders in the system (which includes the Drop Box).

  • How does one set the DPI when resizing images in Bridge?

    I am sure I am missing something here (so excuse me if its a simple answer) but I am used to using Photo Mechanic and there you are able to set lots of variables while resizing.  I don't understand this Bridge resizing window when using Batch Processing thru Photoshop. 
    -There are two boxes for sizing.  If you put the same dimension in both does it just set the longest dimension to that size?
    -What if I want say a 10x10 inch image at 72 DPI for web use as opposed to a 10 x10 inch image at 300 DPI for printing purposes, where does one enter that info?
    Thanks,
    Joshua

    You don't "resize" anything in Bridge, nor does it set PPI, pixels per inch—and most certainly NOT "DPI" (Dots [of ink] Per Inch) which is exclusively a feature of the printer.
    Bridge is just a File Browser.  It used to be called simply the Photoshop File Browser".  It doesn't open, edit, manipulate resize or even save anything.
    It merely hands the file(s) over to the appropriate application, whether that be Photoshop, adobe Camera Raw, Illustrator, InDesign or even MS Word.

    Again, you mean PPI in both instances there.
    You enter that in whatever application you're sending the image from Bridge.
    For instance in Photoshop:

  • Midi Network ... How does one set it up?

    I've been trying to set up a simple midi network between my main computer and my laptop. Thus far I can't get anything to work. The instruction are NOT clear at all .. about how to set up a connection .. or at least what one needs to do for both machines. Can some kind soul please suggest what I need to do to make this work.
    Everytime I try it I get "Can't connect" .. even though sessions on both systems are recognized .. so I know the ethernet is working fine .. but I can't get this to work.

  • HT201334 How does one set up profile manager on a completely closed network with no Internet access available or even possible?

    I need to set up Profile Manager on a completely closed network that has no Internet access at all. I can sneaker-net files into the network if I need to.
    Profile Manager (and Lion Server in general) seems to need outside access to complete setup and I've been unable to find any meaningful answers.
    Does anyone any any ideas?
    Thanks to all

    you could try it without enabling apple push notifications in server
    you wont' be able to push out profiles without enabling apple push notification
    but users could download them, or you could install manually, e-mail etc

  • How does one set the option to pre-compile JSPs on deployment in WL 10.3?

    Outside of manually creating and modifying weblogic.xml, that is.
    There used to be a tool Weblogic Builder that gave a graphical interface to modify weblogic.xml. Has this been replaced in 10.3 or just thrown away?
    Also, can I set the option at all in an app deployed as a war without exploding the war manually.
    Thanks.
    Edited by: joeb on Jan 29, 2009 5:26 PM

    You might be able to do this with a deployment plan. If doing this requires adding an element, as opposed to simply modifying the value of an element, then it might not help.
    It would be conceivable to add this capability as part of a build process, as you can use the "xmltask" Ant task library, to automatically modify the file. You'd also have to add in tasks that automatically exploded and reconstruct the WAR file. At least you wouldn't have to do this manually.
    I doubt there's any way to change this in an already deployed app, without redeploying the app.

    There are many ways of achieving the above and the easiest way is mentioned on the link attached below :-
