Trouble deleting name/password when connecting to server

I teach in a computer lab populated with 10.3.9 eMacs. I have students log onto a server (10.2.8) to store their files. One kid has managed to save his server connection login name and password so that it comes up as the default. Not a good idea with other students using the same computer and are thus able to access his file folder. I've tried emptying every cache and preference file that looks to be related to the connect to server screen to no avail. Clicking the Options button and unchecking/checking options did not change his name and password from appearing automatically either. There has to be a way to undo this, but I'm at the end of my progress bar. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Do your users use Exchange? If so, they can log into OWA and change the password from there.
Do you have a Mac server kicking around? If so, you can bind it to the domain, set up an AFP share that the users can access, and then they can change password from the connect to server dialog as shown below:
Note that AFP provides a Change Password... button. Clicking it...
Allows you to change a password. This server in bound to AD and the jadams users is an AD account.

Deleting old server connection - sufficient privileges

I am attempting to delete an old server connection, but when I do I get a message saying I do not have sufficient privileges. I have tried to "get info" to change the privileges but I can't even get in to that. Command - I doesn't work either. Any other suggestions?

I think AJ would've cured it 'twere it a Cache problem.
I think the problem is that it's trying to connect before all the Networking stuff is up & running.
Some workarounds from the past are...
Disable Auto Login.
Mount that Share once, then once the Globe Icon shows up on the Desktop, drag that Globe Icon to the right side of the Dock between Applications & Trash. You now have a Dynamic Mount, a quick click on the Icon in the Dock will connect you.
On the multiple Shortcuts...
Mount them all, when show up on the Desktop, then create a new Folder maybe named Shares on/in the Desktop, drag all those Shares shown on the Desktop to that Folder, (you can even rename them once there, if you wish), drag that Folder to the right side of the Dock between Applications & Trash, this should give you a popup menu to select from.:-)

I am unintentionally come to delete the bluetooth connection to my heart rate monitor in my iPhone 4s. How can I restore the connection?

I am unintentionally come to delete the bluetooth connection to my heart rate monitor in my iPhone 4s. How can I restore the connection?

Thanks, but unfortunately for me the Polar H7 does not have any buttons or anything that can actively affect the pairing, it is manifest just a transmitter. Pairing can apparently only be done by finding the Polar H7 in the unit that you want to pair with (my 4s) and after my delete of the device, my iPhone 4s does not retrieve it as a Bluetooth device.

How do I delete old network connections?

I'm adding some new computers to my network and have discovered a mess of old connections in the network preferences. I'd like to delete the old ones in order to keep things a neat and tidy as I can.
However, I can't seem to find a way to delete them individually.
Is there some way to see all your network connections in a list or something and delete those outdated or no longer needed? I can find them individually using network preferences, but even then there does not seem to be a delete feature.

Hi--
You can delete locations in the Network Preferences. From the "Location" menu, choose "Edit Locations..." and you'll get a little box with your locations. There's a "Delete" button there. If the "Edit Locations..." menu item is greyed out, just click the little lock in the lower left of the pane to open it, supply your password, and you should be in business.

What are you trying to accomplish? File transfer is not supported.
If your Nokia provides personal hotspot, you should be able to make

How do I delete an old email account from my system

I was asked to update a password to our company email account and I updated. Then I had to update the password on my iphone. Now my iphone won't send any emails out because it is asking for an update to an email account that was never associated with this iphone (the email account was from a former employer). It must have been restored or synced to my iphone or tied to iTunes through syncing. I deleted the old employer phone from itunes when I left the job and purchased a new iphone.
But now my new iphone is not sending emails because it says that the old email account does not recognize the new password. And there is no old email account to delete. I've looked in my itunes acccount to try to delete there as well and can find nothing to delete from the old account.

Very interesting, thank you for the update.
I would next reset the network settings on the phone, in case there is some info there that is stuck and causing the issue:
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
I would also check these locations to see if the account is signed in anywhere else as an Apple ID in your Settings:
iCloud
iTunes & App Stores
Messages
FaceTime
Game Center
If not I would as a last resort, backup your iPhone with this article:
iOS: How to back up and restore your content
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
And restore it from your backup with this article and test the issue:
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

If the issue persists when restored, then restore it as a new device and test the issue to help isolate the data in the backup.

PC Suite Upgrade has disabled my bluetooth connect...

Hello!
After using an older version of Nokia PC Suite that came with my model 6233 phone, I decided to upgrade to 6.82.22.0. The older version worked via Bluetooth without any trouble. With the new version, I can no longer make a Bluetooth connection to my phone.
Using the PC (running Windows XP Prof.) Bluetooth connectivity software, I can see and interact with my phone. (I am using an Acer USB Bluetooth device).
When I completly delete all pairings and pair via the Nokia PC Suite software, I can get to the point at which a pairing code must be entered. Upon entering the code and accepting via the phone. . .nothing happens. The button labeled 'next' remains gray and after waiting 20 minutes I am forced to 'cancel'. When I go back to try the process again, the phone is no longer visible. (Via the PC software, yes, but via the Nokia software, no.)
Can anyone help me solve this problem?
Thank you in advance for any suggestions!

I used "Add/Remove Programmes" in Control Panel. It might also be the "Cable Connectivity solution" that Software updater installs. so I uninstalled that - but that broke my cable connection, so I could be wrong.... Either way, I'm now able to connect via Bluetooth which is the main thing.

Desktop Software for PC - Windows 7 Bluetooth Connection

Hi All,
Here's what I've got hardware wise Software all updated on all below..
BlackBerry 9900
Desktop PC with no Bluetooth built in
USB Bluetooth and Drivers
When installing the Bluetooth USB and it's drivers I don't get any option to allow Bluetooth connections the box is grayed out. In turn I can't sync the phone or do anything. I think this is more of a Windows Driver problem but just wondering if anyone else is having the same trouble and found a fix
Many thanks

Bluetooth Connectivity For Music With Speakers

I have altec Lansing bluetooth speakers.
They work with lots of old phones playing music over bluetooth.
I've unpaired and deleted all old pairings with the speakers.
My 8520 connects to the IMT525 speakers fine.
It even has sound WHEN MAKING A PHONE CALL But as soon as i try to play a music file there is no sound from the speakers.
Only sound on the phone itself.
I have tried to 'Activate IMT525' whilst in the media/music player. that gives no error BUT STILL NO MUSIC PLAYED on the speakers.
Is there some special bluetooth setting i need to make?
again to re-itterate...it all seems to work with no error messages...just no sound from PLAYING MUSIC ONLY

Bluetooth Connectivity Issues Resolved

It took me a bit of time to sort these two things out, so just want to share:
Problem is Bluetooth connectivity to PC so that I can use the Desktop Manager:
Using: Windows XP PRO, SP3 - Blackberry 8220 Pearl flip
1) The first issue had to do with ANY Bluetooth connectivity to the synchronization program (Desktop Software). I was actually told by the carrier tech services folks that it just wouldn't work right, so connect via USB.
After a LOT of research, what I found is this: Blackberry connectivity only wanted to recognize the Windows NATIVE Bluetooth connector. I was using something else a lot more powerful, and that worked on everything else I tried... but not with the Blackberry synch software. I uninstalled the 3rd party connector and just ran the Windows version and everything worked perfectly immediately.
I do not know whether this is still the case, but it absolutely was the problem less than 1-year ago. I found the clues in some of the Blackberry Support Knowledge Base info. (Clue only.)
2) Just today, and what prompted this note is a different issue. I recently upgraded to Blackberry Desktop Software version 4.6.0.180, and guess what? The Bluetooth connectivity again would not work. Again, everything looked great. The program could see the phone OK, but it would not connect to allow sync with the application.
Answer is this: The upgrade opened two ports in my Windows Firewall (which makes sense)... but it did not erase or delete the previous open port settings. What I found was this:
(Under Firewall Exceptions)
BlackBerry Desktop Software music sync service data transfer TCP - Port 4482
BlackBerry Desktop Software music sync service data transfer TCP - Port 4481
BlackBerry Desktop Software music sync service discovery UDP - Port 4482
BlackBerry Desktop Software music sync service discovery UDP - Port 4481
So... The Firewall didn't know what to do because it had the same 2 ports opened under exceptions as both UDP and TCP for the same port numbers. (i.e., Port 4482 as BOTH UDP and TCP)
The fix was simple... just delete the opposing exceptions so that "...Data Transfer" was TCP on Port 4481, and "...Service Discovery" was UDO on Port 4482. (Doesn't matter which, just that one is on a different port than the other.)
How? Open the Windows Security Center -> Windows Firewall -> Exceptions Tap -> Scan down until you find the two applications above. By highlighting and clicking EDIT you can determine what port numbers are assigned and make the fix by deleting opposing assignments as mentioned.
Sorry for this verbose message, but this was a hassle for me, and I hope it helps someone else before they either give up or start tearing away their hair in frustration.
(NOTE: This is my first post here, so if this should be located in another area please do send it there or let me know what I should do.)

So, this is interesting. I appreciate the post.
I, too, had issues with Bluetooth connectivity with DM 4.x. I ttried many times, even had the native Windows drivers installed, and all worked except that the ability to select the BT option in DM was greyed out and not available. Is this the problem you had and that this fix solved? I never did figure it out and subsequently reloaded Windows after a HDD crash and it's worked after that.
I currently have DM6 and haven't even bothered with Bluetooth on the PC because it's always been more trouble than it's worth. I do have the 4 entries in the Windows Firewall as you describe but my Windows Firewall is turned off (don't remember if it was turned on before but i don't think so).

IMac freezes during sleep bluetooth connection lost

I have a 27" iMac and when the screen goes to sleep I lose my bluetooth connection and must restart the iMac using a wired mouse or the power button.
I have a wireless Apple keyboard, magic mouse and magic trackpad. The screensaver is off, energy saver set to leave the hard drive running, and simply darken the screen after 15 minutes.
Every morning all my bluetooth devices are nonresponsive. Fortunately I have an old Apple USB mouse which allows me to restart.
I've tried deleting user preferences for com.apple.bluetooth.plist.
Should I just do an archive and install?
Thanks,
--Jamey

How can I delete an old file from my library on iTunes

Occasionally I have to replace PDF manuals with ones that have been updated. But after I sync the new file the old one remains on my Mac itunes library. How can I delete the old file? So far all I do is deselect the old file but it's still there. Sooner or later there will be more old files then current ones making it hard to manage.
Thanks in advance.

You can do this with or without the iPad connected to your Mac.
Launch iTunes on the Mac. Click on Books under the Library heading. Click on the PDFs. Then click on the PDF that you want to delete in order to select it, and go to Edit>Delete and follow the on screen prompts.
if you are using iTunes 11 and do not have the sidebar enabled, and wish to do so, go to View>Show sidebar or use the keyboard shortcut OPTION+Command+S.
If you do not want to enable the sidebar, the library items can be accessed in the button in the upper left corner of the iTunes window.

How to delete the old backup in time machine?

Hi all,
As I have use the TM for a year,the backup folder is on a network dirve. HOw can I delete the old backup (eg 6 months ago) in order to release more space?
Thank you
Gary

Hi, and welcome to the forums.
I'll assume you mean a NAS (Network Attached Storage) device, not a Time Capsule or external HD connected to a Time Capsule or other Mac on your network.
If so, you can delete individual backups via Time Machine. See #12 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum). That may not seem to gain any space, since the backups are in a rather odd container called a +sparse bundle.+ It won't shrink automatically when you delete things, but the space will be reused for new backups.
You may be able to limit the size of the backups by limiting the amount of space available to Time Machine on the NAS, but you'll have to use whatever facilities the NAS supplies, not OSX. Some allow the disk to be partitioned as on a normal disk, or allocate space to shares.
