I would like to use Find My Phone for friends and family to follow me during the NYC Marathon next week. Is there a way to set up or temporarily change my User ID and Password for this purpose?

New York Runners has an app that is specially designed to do exactly that. It's (or will be) available in the App Store.

You might also look at apps like RunMeter. It will let you send updates by email, Facebook or Twitter. Glympse is another app that, though not designed specifically for runners, might also be useful.

I have Apple ID for using iTunes, but haven't signed in. Now my Ipad stolen, how can I use Find My Phone for finding my Ipad?

Who can help me, to add my Ipad to Deviecs in Find My Phone. I was usually using my Ipad sign in iTunes for download music, but haven't signed in iCloud yet. Now my I Ipad stolen, how can I use Find My Phone?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.
If the device is wiped by you or another, you may not be able to locate the device (although some have reported they can)

"Use my Microsoft Windows user ID and password" is grayed out

Hello Experts,
I've disabled "SOX Auditing" option in Server Manager in BPC 5.1 SP03, but "Use my Microsoft Windows user ID and password" is still grayed out. The only option I unlocked is saving password.
How do I enable Windows Authentication in BPC?
Thanks in advance,
Akim

Enabling/Disabling SOX Compliance does not take effect until the 2nd time you go through the Connection Wizard.
Your problem could also be within Internet Explorer.
Go to:
1. Internet Explorer>Tools>Internet Options>Security Tab
2. Click on Local Intranet zone>Custom Level
3. Scroll down to User Authentication>Logon. Ensure that Automatic Logon with Current UN and PW is checked.
4. Do the same for the Internet zone.
Try on multiple machines.
Also on the client machine, look at the value for BASICAUTHENTICATION in:
hkeycurrentuser>software>vb and vba program settings>outlooksoft 5>latest

Configuration File using a different user id and Password

Hi,
I have a SSIS package that I have deployed to various environments and was able to successfully run. The last environment causes some problems. At first I thought that it was a connection issue with SQL Server. I attempted to change the
user id and password for the db in the configuration file and am still getting errors.
When I attempt to connect to the db using those same credentials, I can log in to the database.
Any idea's what to look for? Is there anything else I can try?
Thanks in advance and regards,
Nadim

Hi,
Below is the message; Thanks in advance. The connection credentials are ok; I can log in with them using a udl file for this purpose.

It sounds like it still has her information on it, so it might be efficient to navigate to Settings, then General, then Reset, then Erase All Content and Settings. You can then set up the phone again, using your information. This way the phone will be yours, officially, and her data and information will be removed.

When trying to use find my Iphone says off line , suggestion is to switch on and off airplane mode , so are you saying when you have your phone nicked you should leave a note for the thief to do this so we can trace him?

I am having trouble trying to get my address book from my mac (just downloaded Lion for this purpose) to my 3G ipad. Set up an icloud account but still confused! Please help !

I updated my mac with os x Lion so that I could accomplish moving my address book from the mac to my new IPad 3G. I also set up an icloud account for this purpose, but I *still* cannot figure out how to move my address book from one computer to the other. When I'm on my mac and try to use bluetooth to export the address book, I'm able to find my ipad but I soon get a message that it does not support the necessary services. I have no idea what's going on and would appreciate any advice. tks in advance, Sarah

The address book syncs via iCloud, not Bluetooth or iTunes.
You upgraded to Lion so you could use iCoud.
On the computer. go to Apple menu > System prefs > iCloud.
Sign into your iCloud account.
Tick everything.
This enalbes the se items syncing to iCloud.
On the iPad, Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Create a new iCloud account.
Sign in with the same AppleID as your computer.
Settings > iCloud and turn everything on.
BAM!
That is all you need to do.
Your contacts (and all other checked items checked) will sync between computer and iPad.
No need to use iTunes

I have Mac Pro 2007, which have no bluetooth hardware. What should I do to use Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse??? Can 'third party's internal bluetooth card' be used for this purpose? Help please...

You can find the Apple Bluetooth card on eBay for as little ten dollars (says its for the 2008 model Mac Pro, not sure about the 2007).
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bluetooth-Board-iMac-and-Mac-Pro-922-8233-922-8233-/1208 49278570
Here is a link to a full explanation of the card and how to install it. Part numbers may differ a bit as that is an old article and newer models have come out.
http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/Mac_Pro/Bluetooth_MacPro_install/Bluetooth_Ma cPro_install.html
Just make sure that the part will work in your model Mac Pro. To that end, you may be better off avoiding eBay and going to a parts reseller. There are even third party cards that use the internal Apple bluetooth slot.
http://fastmac.com/bluetooth.php
In theory, using a USB or PCI card will work at login so long as it is recognized by Apples drivers. You say you need to launch an application to use your current USB Bluetooth dongle? If it is not controlled by the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar then it must be using a third party driver of some sort. Unfortunately, I don't know off hand which USB and PCI cards are supported.

There are no BIOS settings, because Macs don't have a BIOS. I don't use Parallels, but I assume it has simulated BIOS settings. You'd have to consult its documentation to find out how to change them.

HT201328 I'd like to unlock my iPhone 5 for use on a trip overseas. Is it possible to unlock it for this purpose?

I'd like to unlock my iPhone 5 for use on a trip overseas. Is it possible to unlock it for this purpose? I bought it before January 26th, so my understanding is that it is legal for me to do so without carrier approval.
To be clear, I don't wish to leave AT&T when in the US, but while visiting my wife's relatives we really need a local number that they can call. I asked AT&T to do it for me, but they refused. I know there are shady ways to get it done, but honestly, if I wanted to live in that realm, I would have bought an Android.
Thanks in advance!

I'm not saying you're definitely wrong about the legality, but I certainly have different information:
http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/01/unlocking-new-cell-phones-to-become-i llegal-on-saturday/
I'm no lawyer, but the official document appears to support my assertion that unlocking a phone purchased before January 26th is grandfathered into the prior exemption which allowed unlocking any phone at any time.
http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2012-10-26/html/2012-26308.htm
Thanks for mentioning the warranty issue. I cannot find an authoritative reference regarding it, though. What I have read indicates that Apple has been fairly vocal about stating that jailbreaking may void your warranty, but has been pretty quiet about unlocking. None of these posts, however, gives any reference either way, so it is difficult to ***** the accuracy.
I'm open to hearing different information as I definitely do not know everything about this subject.
If possible, can you reference your sources?

HT204053 I had Snow Leopard and was using iWeb and Filezilla for my website (not MobileMe). Wanting to move to single-click publishing, I now find it is not supported by iCloud and Mountain Lion. I feel cheated, having bought it mainly for this purpose!

I had Snow Leopard and was using iWeb and Filezilla for my website (not MobileMe). Wanting to move to single-click publishing (supported by MobileMe), I now find it is not supported by iCloud and Mountain Lion. I feel cheated, having bought it mainly for this purpose! The other thing they don't tell you is that Mountain Lion disables OfficeMac, and I am considering uninstalling it for that reason - do I get my money back?!

You stated; "Mountain Lion disables OfficeMac"
That is not true.
Mountain Lion does not have Rosetta so it is not capable of executing PowerPC code. If you have MS Office 2004 that is coded in PowerPC code and will not run in Mountain Lion. What you need to do is upgrade to an Intel version of Office.

I am trying to use Find My Phone for people to follow me on the NYC Marathon next week. Is there a way to set up a temporary User ID and Password to give out to people for this purpose? I would obviously want to delete that log in info after the race.
