How to get rid of automatically created Mail and iCal accounts on client?

I have recently setup an OS X 10.6 Server for our small office. I got the domain name wrong in the initial install and fixed this by doing a complete clean reinstall of OS X 10.6 server (now upgraded to 10.6.4).
The problem is that one of the OS X 10.6.4 clients had been setup to talk to the server prior to the rebuild. Now on this client, I cannot work out how to get rid of or change the automatically created server accounts in iCal and Mail - everytime you login, these are recreated using the old domain name (and of course don't work).
In Mail if you remove the server account (from Accounts in Preferences), it just pops back again. I even removed every trace of the old domain name from the apple.com.mail.plist file but when I re-open Mail that darned server account (with the old domain name) just pops up again.
In iCal its slightly different in that you can remove the account and it stays away while you have iCal open. But as soon as you close and re-open it, that server account just pops up again!
I thought it might be something to do with Kerberos and found a Kerberos file on the client which had the old domain name throughout it - I changed all these references to the new domain name, but still the same behaviour in Mail and iCal.
This is doing my head in. Any ideas?

I have the same problem. Every time that I open iCal on the client a new account is created and an error message shown that I cannot login. I can delete the wrong account in the iCal preferences. However, as soon as I restart, the account and the error message are back.
How do I "unbind" and "rebind" a client? I searched the "Mac OS X Server
Open Directory Administration Version 10.6 Snow Leopard" but the only reference to "binding" seems to be in the context of Active Directory which I don't have.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

How to get rid of flag in mail

I downloaded the new Lion, and mail has this new fonction of flag. But it put a flag on all messages and it take 4 step to delete a message now. How do I get rid of this fonction. Basicaly I don't want any flag ever!!!!!

Use PreparedSatement class,
e.g.
// Where the name field is defined as char, i.e. needs quotes in SQL.
String sql = "select * from person where name = ? ";
PreparedStatement statement = connection.prepareSatement(sql);
statement.setString(1, "Bob");
statement.executeQuery();
This will get rid of hardcoding db vendor dependant quotes in your sql,
Hope this helped.

How to get rid of new version itunes and go back to older version

I DO NOT LIKE THE NEW VERSION OF ITUNES
HOW DO I GET RID OF OT AND GO BACK TO OLDER VERSION

You can get closer to the old look with ctrl-b to turn on the menu bar and ctrl-s to turn on the sidebar, then select Artists from the selection of views across the top.
If you still want to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the installer from here, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

How to get rid of Segment overlap warnings and Unknown in Analyzer?

Greetings,
When I use analyzer to look at results collected with collect I get several warnings such as:
Warning: Segment <librt-2.5.so> [0x3108600000-0x3108607000] overlaps <librt-2.5.so> [0x3108600000-0x3108607000], which has been implicitly unloaded
*** Warning: Segment <librt-2.5.so> [0x3108607000-0x3108807000] overlaps <librt-2.5.so> [0x3108607000-0x3108807000], which has been implicitly unloaded

... (same for libc, libm and many others)
Which then causes any library functions to show up as <Unknown>.
How can I get rid of this problem?
Thanks,
Carlos

Assuming it's Linux and you are using an older version of collect, it's most likely bug 6714153: Linux: callstack frames contain "<Unknown> + ..." when application uses many libraries.
This bug has been fixed in SunStudio 12 Update 1 release. You'll have to recollect the experiment.

How to get rid of the residual value in my account

hi
i have 1 kr in my itunes accout and i need to change my country but i cant , what i do to get rid of the remaining value .
thank you

If you can, enter in a credit card from your original country temporarily so you can buy something that costs more than the balance remaining on your account and thereby use up all the remaining credit. If you cannot or do not wish to put in a credit card, go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store. They can probably clear your remaining balance for you.
Regards.

I can't get rid of the annoying and time wasting pop ups and ad pages that jump in front of the page I click on. I have blocked popups in Chrome and Safari as well as system preferences

You most likely installed adware along with something else you recently installed.
You can either follow Apple's manual instructions for removing it, or the free automated tool, AdwareMedic.

How do I set up multiple e-mail and iCloud accounts on an iPad?

Hello everyone,
I have just purchased an iPhone and an iPad, and have upgraded to Mavericks - and that was only a week ago, so the workings of the cloud are not overly familiar with me yet.
I have just discovered to my dismay that unlike my iMac and Macbook, the iPad does not support accounts - or multiple users - in the Mac sense, although looking at the manual and the forums I believe it might be possible to do things another way, but all the postees have more experience of the devices and the cloud than I do.
What am I trying to get the iPad to do?
My use is fairly mixed, but mostly web browsing and music and some Apple TV. I do not have my regular e-mail address joined to the cloud, and don’t want to, as nearly all my e-mails are work based, and I don’t want those on a private device. My new iCloud e-mail address will do for friends at some point.
My wife surfs the web, uses e-mail, and Facebook. She would like all her content private, so I would expect some sort of password usage, or signing in and out of iCloud, or at least certain aspects of it like Mail. I’m not bothered about mine being kept private, and I expect my usage to be light. She does not have an Apple id or iTunes account.
I know you can put more than one e-mail address on there, and the menu on the iPad suggests I can add more than iCloud account?
Unfortunately, this is all a bit of a jigsaw puzzle and I feel I’m missing a few pieces.
Can some kind soul tell me if what I want to achieve is possible, and if it is, I would really appreciate an idiot’s guide on how to achieve this.
Many thanks in advance.

Now I feel kind of stupid, or maybe I need new glasses. I did not see the get an new account link, just kept going back into my primary account. Thank you for your time and help.

How to get rid of some old mail accnt?

I feel so stupid... I've got a couple of disused mail accounts (imported from a previous Mac), I'm trying to delete them with the "Delete Mailbox..." function, I'm getting the usual warning message ("...action cannot be undone."), I then hit the confirming Delete button.... and nothing happens. Can somebody set me straight on this?

to delete an account go to mail preferences->accounts, select an account and click on "-" at the bottom.
