I can not login in my Mac Pro with my new apple ID?

I installed 10.8.5 but I can not login as administrator with my new(confirmed)password:the new password is not accepted. So what can be the reason but more important: how to solve this nasty problem?
TIA

The password for logging into your computer is not the same as your Apple ID password. These Apple documents tell how to reset your password for you computer:
OS X Mountain Lion: If you forget your login password
OS X Mountain Lion: Reset a login password

Help! Logic Express 8 does not work on my Mac Pro with OS 10.5.1

Hello, I hope somebody around here is able to help me.
I have got a new Mac Pro with one Quad core processor since yesterday and it works fine except for Logic Express 8 (version 8.0.1). Whenever I start Logic the program crashes as soon as "Core Audio initialisieren" is shown in the display. I have tried to reinstall the program, deleted it completely and installed it again. It is always the same.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? What can I do about it? I am a musician and I really need Logic Express to run.

Confused. 10.6 is DVD based. Only Lion and above are downloads.
And best install is not to upgrade. Do a clean install - on another drive.
Corrupt partition tables or bad sectors or no room to adjust the partitions or the directory is corrupt.
ERASE the drive if Repair Disk didn't work.

We can not login in to our account with Genbook. All other account have been fine so far.

When ever we use Firefox, we can not login to our account with Genbook (this is the only account we are having this issue with). I can go to Explorer and login without any problems. Please let me know how to correct this problem.

How can I set up a Mac pro with internal Raid 5

I have a Mac pro running Leopard server. I would like to format 3 of the drives as an internal Raid 5.
Can this be done?
Can it be done without an internal Raid card?
or
Can it be done if I install a Mac Pro Raid card?
Thanks,
RT

RAID5 or RAID10 or such does require add-on software and / or add-on hardware, yes.
And I'd tend to go toward external RAID storage here, as that is what the most common packages offer and as that tends to have the greatest expansion. This would involve a PCIe RAID controller and external storage here, though Apple does offer the Mac Pro RAID card for use with the internal drives.
The integrated Apple software RAID has RAID0 and RAID1 capabilities. Not RAID5.
As for any additional questions, here's [the FAQ|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1346] for the Mac Pro RAID card, and here is [the manual|images.apple.com/server/docs/RAIDUtility_UserGuide.pdf].
External RAID can involve Apple Xsan and Promise and related, or third-party FC SAN storage, or any of various third-party direct-attach storage (DAS) options.

Mountain Lion will not load on my mac pro with 10.7.4.

I purchased and tried to download Mountain Lion to my mac pro and it will not down load. Once I press download it does nothing. I have already been billed for it. My mac pro notebook is less than a year old opperating 10.7.4 Lion. Any ideas?

restart your computer and try again, when you hit download, do nothing, and hopefully it will begin, do you see the installer in Launchpad? try double click it to unpause it.

HT1920 I am trying to sign on an old Apple ID through iTunes and it is likely that the email address I used has been closed down. I can not remember the password due to using a new apple ID I frequently use. How else can I retrieve my password or sign in?

I have an old Apple ID I have been trying to log in to retrieve permission for the songs I have bought for my iTunes. However due to it being an old ID, I have forgotten the password and from what I can remember, the email address I used for security was closed down. I am aware that I can go through security questions and when asked for my D.O.B, I have a feeling I never adjusted my settings in the Apple ID account therefore can not get past that question either.
Please help!
Thanks
Karen

Hi Kazmania89,

I have purchased music, apps, or books with multiple Apple IDs. How can I get all of this content onto my iOS device? 
First, you need to copy all of your purchased content so it is on the same Mac or PC with iTunes. This computer should be the one you sync your device with. For more information on how to move your content, see these articles:
Mac: iTunes for Mac: How to copy purchases between computers
PC: iTunes for Windows: How to copy purchases between computers
Next, authorize your computer to play content with each Apple ID in iTunes. Once your computer is authorized for all your content, it can be synced to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

Mac Pro and two new Apple LED Cinema Display 27" brightness control

Hi all,
Have been using my new Mac Pro (HD5770) with one 27" display for a while and am loving it and to make my work easier I got one more 27" display but how do I change the brightness on the second display? Only the first one can be changed and it's a big difference in the colors on the displays.
With Best Regards / Christian

Make sure you have the display update installed. Look for the ambient light sensor control in Displays system preference to see if it's installed.
<http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1107>
<http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4293>
Turn off mirroring.
Do you have brightness slider for both displays?
Try unplugging the USB cable for one display so you can adjust the brightness on the other.

Hi I would be grateful if someone can help me, I have just bought a canon wireless printer, I only have an iPad so I can not install the cd that comes with the new printer yet it says it is compatible. How do I get it working I have a pay as you go 3G sim

I do not use the Internet using wifi I use 3G mobile broadband and if I do need wifi it tells me I have to pay for it, but I can not work out how to install or connect my iPad with my new printer if there is not a cd slot or USB port. I only have an iPad no computer so how on earth do I use my printer with it if it I can't install the printer cd. I though I would be able to use Bluetooth and it would pick it up automatically but I am really confused now and don't know what to do please help.

The iPad uses AirPrint technology to print to a printer. Check this Apple support page to see if your printer is listed as being AirPrint compatible.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
If your printer works with AirPrint you will need a Wi-Fi network in order to connect. That Wi-Fi network does not need to be connected to the Internet. As James Ward4 says, you'll need a Wi-Fi router to set up your network. Most routers require that a computer be used during the setup process. Perhaps you could use someone's computer to do the setup if you do not had one yourself. Once the router is set up you should be able to print.

Has anyone had problems signing on Mac Pro with the new Maverick system. I seem to starting typing my name and after about five letters I lose the first three which screws up the sign on and I have to start over. Any ideas on a cure?

I am having trouble with my sign in with the new Maverick system. I type 4 or 5 letters of my name and three disappear and I have to start over. It does it all the time and even when my wife signs in with her name and password. Anyone know a cure. Dave

Try resetting the admin pasword ...

Or, try here > OS X: Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password

Help Help..Can not back up my Macbook Pro with Time Machine

I have Mac Book Pro Mac OS X version 10.6.8 and Time capsule 802.11n (3rd generation), I used to do back up wirelessly but then it stopped. so i connected it directly to laptop, it did not work. so i did reset on Time Capsule/Machine and didnt work. Show error 1) Time Machine could not comple Back Up (The back disk image "/volume/data/macintosh.sparsebundle"could not be created (error 1) and then different time i tried got different error 2) Time Machine Could Not Complete (the back disk image "/volume/data/macintosh.sparsebundle"couldnot be created (error 60)..please advise

The TC drive is network and will never show up in disk utility.
You can mount the sparse bundle into the utility and do a check on it.. but that serves little purpose.
I used to do back up wirelessly but then it stopped. so i connected it directly to laptop,
It is highly likely the setup is wrong.
Please do a full factory reset of the TC.
The Factory Reset TC Gen1-4. Or AE Gen1-5
Unplug your TC/AE. Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on.. all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec.
Release it when the status light flashes rapidly. If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have missed it and try again.
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
Redo the setup using the airport utility. For older OS and TC you can do this by ethernet with wireless turned off if you like.
Tell us the main modem router and how the TC was originally setup.. if it was in bridge mode.. then put the TC back in bridge and plug it into the router.
If there are issues they will show up in the airport utility. Please list any issues it has.

I can not get my printer to work with my new macbook pro. Help?

I have a printer from Dell that my macbook has recognized and it act as though it is printing but nothing is happening. The computer acts like it sends the doc to the printer but my printer is not doing anything. Any suggestions?

Check the Dell website for compatible printer drivers you can download and install.
Once the drivers are installed, open System Preferences > Print & Scan > Print
Then click + to add the printer.

If by exchange you mean Trade-In...
Apple does not do Trade ins...
See Apple's ‘Buy Back’ program here... But you may prefer to sell it privately...

Hp disk can not find, even after I replace with a new hard drive

In last week I have encountered few problems with your product, and following are the information about the HP laptop I have purchased in December 2011:
S/N#[Personal Information Removed]; Product#: qc399av; Model: g6t-1c00
It is only one year and 9 month old. The problems I have encountered are the following:
“A disk read error occurred, Press Ctrl +Alt+Del to restart” this sometimes shows up sometimes not. If it did show up, it always shows up in the beginning when I first turned on my laptop.
SSD 128G|TOSHIBA HDTS212XZSTA RT
- I thought, if I replace the new hard drive (from newegg.com: from the laptop )
After 1 day of replacement, I have found the error continue occur. Plus, with more error messages such as (an unexpected I/O error has occurred, status: 0x00000e9); (Boot Device Not Found); (system Diagnostics page showed up, and each test {start-up test, Run-in test, Hard disk test} takes about 1 hour to run for each one)
Since I already spend 100 dollars include rush shipping fees on the new hard drive from newegg.com, I found I still could not fix the problem.
I took my laptop to BestBuy’s Geek Squad, to see what their opinion is; they told me the problem was caused by a faulty motherboard (a hardware issue, not a personal issue)
Please tell me what I should do next. I need use a laptop really bad, and I have to work every day.

When you run the hard drive test, even though it takes an hour, what is the result?

I can not login in my Mac Pro with my new apple ID?
