Could you somebody to help me to removing the login password?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
If you don't want to put your password every time you start the computer, first of all, look at the bottom left corner of that window. Here, press the padlock and type your user password. You need that because it's a security feature, so not all users can modify them.
Then, just unmark "Disable automatic login", so your Mac won't ask you for your password after starting up anymore

  • How to remove password for the recovery mode wizard which you get by pressing command   r while booting mac with mac os 10.10?

    I've set that password long ago and now forgot on how to remove it.
    Should I go to Apple store for this?

    It's possible you set a firmware password, see if the password dialog is similar to the one on this site…
    http://osxdaily.com/2014/01/06/set-firmware-password-mac/
    Those passwords prevent ALL startup key combinations. Confirm it also happens when you boot holding T (target disk mode - How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode - Apple Support) If that goes to the password dialog you have a firmware password set.
    Apple suggest you take it to an Apple store to get it reset, you can't remove the battery or remove RAM to reset this, so only Apple should reset it.

    how can i remove password on my iphone??

    Settings>General>Passcode Lock.  Turn it off. You will need to know the current passcode to do this.
    If you can't remember it, you will need to restore the phone using the computer you normally sync to.
    If the computer the phone is set up to sync with is unavailable, you will need to put the phone in DFU mode and restore it as new.

    I need to unlock my iphone 4 without password. Can you tell me how to do it

    There is no way to retrieve any data from the phone unless you can remember the passcode. That's the whole point of the passcode, to protect the data. To remove the passcode, you'll have to force the phone into recovery mode, as described here, & restore it:

    All data on the phone will be erased.

  • HT1338 how to make space on startup drive?

    how to make space on start up drive?

    Use http://monolingual.sourceforge.net/ to remove unwanted languages - DO NOT remove anything else with it.
    Install http://links.zero.eu.org/os-x/period/ to clear out very old log files etc
    Paste the following into open Terminal (in Utilities) window and then hit return - give password when asked and hit return again - takes a while but it will list your 100 largest files:
    cd / ; sudo du -caxk .[!.]* *| sort -rn | head -100  
    Keep backups on an external drive.
    Put photos on DVDs and not your Mac.

  • How to set password login window appear for 'Mac Mail' app?

    This is possible, when we remove the email password from my keychain using account preference. But some of our client wants login window password which is different from email password.
    Is this possible??

    no. but if you protect your iPhone with a password, I don't think you need a separate one just for your email.

  • How to remove password-encryption in a signed PDF file?

    I can open a password-encryption and digitally signed PDF file using Acrobat X Standard but cannot remove the password protection.
    Can anyone help me remove the password encryption?  The Acrobat only allows to set passsord encryption before adding digital signature to a PDF file.  Can I sign a PDF file and then encrypt it with password?  Thanks.

    Removing the security, if it is possible, would destroy the signature.
    Encrypting a signed PDF would destroy the signature.
    This is because signatures validate the file exactly as it is, and changes to the file break the signature by design. Setting security is a change to the PDF (a big change).

    Even when running as administrator, apps that require system access still require an admin password.
    Even that is not always the case. Certain system components can be modified by an admin user without further authentication. Safari, for example, is group writable by admin. A trojan that modifies core components of Safari to mine your credit card info and send it to a third party could install itself without your knowledge if you are an admin user. Not so with a non-admin account. That 's why it's not a good idea to use an admin account for everyday use. Use a standard non-admin account. I rarely even log in to my admin account.
    Security is everything when it comes to computers. Bypassing even a small part of it can result in a compromised system - - or worse.
    You bet.
    Yes, but for the average user, this is not a real issue.
    If a user runs Leopard from a "naive" user account (one with very limited privs) and a message pops up that something requires an admin PW, he knows that danger is afoot.
    Leopard is indeed a very secure system, but the truth is that nothing is perfectly secure, and some would argue that even nothing is insecure

  • How to remove password on a classic video iPod?

    Hi all,
    I set a password on my ipod and forgot it. how do I reset it? I've tried syncing with iTunes but that did not help.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    George

    Connect the iPod to the computer you normally use it with (the first one that the iPod synced with) and open iTunes. Then disconnect the iPod from the computer and it should no longer be locked.
    If that doesn't work, you'll need to restore it.
    See: How to restore the iPod to factory settings.

  • HT1338 How to Remove ividi malware from Mac/Safari

    Hi, how do you remove ividi from a mac?  It's invaded Safari.  Be so grateful for any help, thanks

    ividi is either a Safari extension or add-on that may have been installed unwittingly. Most people don't do that unless they are deceived into doing so.
    Go to Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. Remove any that you do not recognize or want.
    Safari does not include any Extensions by default. If you see any Extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
    It may also be a Safari add-on. To fix that read: Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues:
    Manually uninstall third-party add-ons
    If the software doesn't have an uninstall feature, quit Safari and try manually moving the third-party add-on files. These files are usually installed in one or more of the following locations:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
    /Library/Input Methods/
    /Library/InputManagers/
    /Library/ScriptingAdditions
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
    ~/Library/Input Methods/
    ~/Library/InputManagers/
    ~/Library/ScriptingAdditions
    To quickly navigate to each of those potential locations, select each of the lines above, individually (triple-click to select the entire line), then control-click and from the contextual menu, select Services > Reveal in Finder. If the folder exists a Finder window will open with the folder selected. Open each folder and examine its contents. Drag anything resembling ividi to the Desktop, or directly to the Trash. If you are uncertain about a particular file, post its name in a reply.

  • HT1338 how to remove vista from my mac, now that i have installed mountain lion, as i need to free up space on y hard drive

    i have installed mountain lion, and now need to completely remove vista and parallels from my mac, to free up the space on my hard drive, boot camp wont help. and the new update of lion has totaly closed these two software programms

    All Mac operating systems use any free space on your hard drive as virtual memory, and this virtual memory plays a part in how well your computer performs. Because of this, the more data you have on your hard drive, the less virtual memory becomes available. Therefore, in order to help increase your Mac boot time, and keep your computer running smoothly, periodically cleaning your hard drive is necessary. To clean it up you want to get rid of any old or unnecessary files. You can do this manually by removing unused applications, emptying your trash etc.,
