I can't log in using password. Each time I enter the log in box comes back unpopulated with my password.
I can't log in to the Imac. Each time I enter my password it is initially accepted then the screen reverts to the log in dialogue box again withhout being populated by the password entered.
Do you have FileVault turned on? People have posted it is requiring a double login.

Hi, i forgot my macbook pro(snow leopard) password and i tried to reset it through single user mode, but whenever i type, everything comes out in CAPs instead of lower case. Each time i press the minus(-), it always comes out as an underscore(_).Pls help.
Well, you can try easing the shift key up with something thin but flexible (credit card sort of thing) but if the contacts below are stuck you may need to get it seen to by an authorised repairer.
If you can borrow a keyboard (a PC one will probably work as long as the password is alpha-numeric with no special characters) you can at least get in to backup your HD before going for repair. -
Hi,
I am trying to install 'Playonmac' so I can install Meta Trader 4 - however each time I reach the next button in order to install XQuartz it hits a dead end
- the 'Installing Quartz' window is saying installing Quartz, but all it does from there is the clock the spins around, just keeps spinning and nothing happens - I have waited and waited for it, but it just kind of freezes there. I have reloaded the software over and over, and even switched off the firewall in case it was blocking Playonmac. It is really important I load Meta Trader 4 on my Mac.
Help will be much appreciated - Has anyone had this sort of problem? Does anyone know how to resolve it?
Regards
JoeAccording to wiki "the documentation from Apple states that Windows XP Service Pack 2 or Windows Vista is requisite for a Boot Camp installation, and it also mentions that trying to install an unsupported operating system could prevent the computer from booting even into Mac OS X". Sure that was from wiki, but it does seem to support and somewhat validate the problem I had with installing an earlier edition of XP.

Thanks for the info on the Filesystem info. My problem is that installing OS X on a mac is just a little bit more technical than installing Windows on a PC as there are a few more things to consider. Plus I'm not familiar with any of the utility programs as well. It's a **** miracle I managed to somehow create a volume to install OS X on when I thought I was erasing the partition I created for WinXP.
But I'm still not sure about the missing 40GB from my 500GB HDD. Upon coming to the desktop straight after OS X was fully re-installed I noticed that the HDD only had 460GB and that 440GB of it available space. So the full installation of OS X was 20GB, but where has the other 40GB gone? I swear I saw that I had much more available space on my harddrive (BEFORE I tried to partition my HDD under Boot Camp Assistant and stuffing up the computer). Is the missing 40GB from the ORIGINAL FACTORY INSTALL of OS X INCLUDING all my iTunes music and other files I uploaded to the computer earlier? It would make sense but there's no way, as far as I know, of checking this. Any ideas?
Cheers. -
Last time i usually pay the purchasing item using my debit visa card.
after that i no more use the debit visa card.
i'm using mastercard.
now each time i want to purchase anything, i cannot pay using the mastercard.
when i insert all the details including the expiry date, apple will show an error. only the expiry date.
i don't understand why.Does it have to be an applet?
If you want the same behaviour as in the code with traffic lights, change
class MortgageApplet extends JApplet implements ActionListener {
to
class MortgageApplet extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
and change
public void init() {
to
public MortgageApplet() { -
ICloud Outlook add-in causes Outlook to hang for 30-120 seconds each time I enter the Calendar.
The iCloud add-in for Outlook seems to be causing some issues with my Outlook calendar: each time I go from the Mail tab to the Calendars tab, Outlook freezes for a minute or two and then resumes functioning.
The problem is definitely with the iCloud add-in itself: if I disable the add-in, my iCloud calendars still appear (but do not sync), and Outlook works fine. The freeze does not seem to happen the first time I go into Calendar after starting Outlook, but every subsequent time it does happen.
I am using Outlook 2010 (32-bit) on Windows 7 (64-bit). I do not know and haven't been able to figure out how to tell if I'm running 32 or 64 bit Apple software on this computer.
I would appreciate any help, and particularly any thoughts on what the iCloud add-in is actually doing at the moment you go into Calendar view that might be causing problems. Does it sync at that time (and apparently in a poorly designed way)? Or is it just some rendering or other similar issue?The sync can be very long, nbut only when you sign in from the Control panel. Once you're in Outlook, I don't think you sync that much.
I have the same issue using my old PC. Maybe you should check your hard drive, your memory usage and CPU usage. I fixed it by a new laptop, last year. Usually, this is a sign that you're short on memory and you're using the Windows page system memory file. So, your CPU might come short, your hard drive might be too slow or you don't have enough memory.. Otherwise, your hard drive may be too slow and very fragmented, reqyuiing Windows to spin a lot and read bits of files stored everywhere. The solution would be to defragment your hard drive. or worse.. it's a slow hard drive or showing sign of fatigue.
I'll go with defragmenting the hard drive first, then, the CPU and memory bump. -

Hi
On my macbook pro
I'm try to set up a new Epson printer SX 445 to my router/network but each time I run the set up wizard it fails to complete saying Security Key/Password Check fail.
*entered security key/password does not match the one set for for router.
I know that the password is correct and have rechecked this by changing it a few times
and I still get the same result.
My network internet service provider is not interested and says to call Epson.
Anybody have any clues how I can resolve this?
RegardsI personally suggest the new Drobo FS. Since it has an iTunes server built in and you can use any size sata hard drive in it it is better and a NAS that has to use the same size drives.

I have done a "reset" and it didn't help. If I watch the wi-fi screen in "settings" .. I can see that I get the "working icon" every few seconds although it remains connected. Also, I have lost all the other wi-fi location passwords and have to re-input each time I visit the location.
worked just fine until last week. any thoughts? thanks. charlieThank you! seems to have solved the problem ... now I have to add back all the other PW's for other wi-fi networks I use during the course of the day..
When I'm on the page Settings>Wi-Fi ,when I'm already connected every 20-30 seconds I see the "busy" icon show up and quickly go away .. never noticed it before.. but it could be just the way it works .. does yours work the same way??
again, many thanks for the help. -
Each time I sync an apple device (iPad, iPad mini, iPhone) with iTunes on our iMac the settings on iMessage and phone settings change. We use the same Apple ID and have different e-mail addresses and phone numbers; however, each time a device is sync'd on iTunes on our iMac, the iMessage settings and phone settings are changed so that we all each get each other's text messages and phone calls. After the device is sync'd/charged, I have to go into each device (all of them somehow update when only one is sync'ing) and re-set the settings to what we want. How can I prevent settings from being changed each time?
Okay I've tried safe mode. Let it run down to 98%, plugged it in, locked the screen, and waited. A few minutes later, the screen came on showing the 100% icon at the top right, full battery icon just to the left of the time, 100% text to the left of that.
I'm not going to do a hard reset until I have confirmation that this is not normal behavior for the phone because that's going to take hours of my time and gigabytes of data transfer to get all of my media and apps back on the phone and configured.
After all my griping, I do have to give credit where it's due. This phone is much more efficient than my Galaxy Nexus. I left the S5 running in WiFi hotspot mode while on battery last night. It still had over 50% left on the battery. The Galaxy Nexus would be stone dead after about 4 hours. I can live with that if I have to but I'd really rather be able to leave it on the charger at night. -
G'day. I am using iMovie 11 and need to clear disk space. How can I do that using an external drive, leaving me the option to go back and make changes or access old events or projects from that external drive?
The slightly bigger question is whether you want to move all movie content to the external drive (essentially meaning that drive will always need to be attached when you're working with your videos), or whether you just want to archive older videos off to the external drive.
If you want to move all videos, then just move the 'Movies' folder in your home directory to the external drive, then create an alias of the external 'Movies' back in to your home directory. Now the 'Movies' icon in your home directory will point to the external drive and everything will just work (as long as the external drive is attached when you launch iMovie)
If you want to archive older movies then each Movie should have its own subdirectory within your Movies folder. These can easily be moved off to the external drive, and moved back should you ever need to work on those movies again. -
How can I force a new window each time I click on Safari?
I am trying to set up a Mac for my parents with the same functionality as their old Windows box. In windows each time you click the IE icon it opens a new window. In Safari each time you click on the safari icon it just opens the current window you have open.
I know you can do a CTRL+N or use tabs but I am trying to set this computer up exactly as their old one. Does anyone know if there is a setting that will open up a new Safari window each time the icon is clicked in the Dock?There is a way to do it, but it's not reliable due to the way that web sites create links on their pages. Some are coded with JavaScript, and that will override any behavior you might want.
It's not hard to just put your thumb on the Command key and click a link or a bookmark; it will produce the same result as the other way I mentioned, but without needing to download, install, and configure a third-party "hack". It also has the added benefit of having one finger always in position to Copy or Paste something. -
I have set up Time Capsule to use with Time Machine but when I open Time Machine it 'cannot find' the Time Capsule and I have to 'Select the Disk' each time. In the Next Backup tab it always says "When disk is connected" even though the disk is already connected.
Your pro doesn't matter.. I presume it is happily working.
Your imac setup has got messed up because you changed from a local (my book being USB type I presume) to network drive. Did you do a clean install of Lion?
Did you use the backup from the Pro on the imac? Otherwise I don't see how the Pro shows up in use previous disk. Where is Pondini when you need him??
You cannot download Time Machine as an App and replace the current version. It is built into the OS.. the only way to do it is a clean install. Unfortunately that might be the only way around the issue.
There is a number of issues that Pondini has covered in the setup issues of troubleshooting.
This is the most relevant I think. http://pondini.org/TM/B6.html
But look at the whole section B setup problems.
http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
If it was me, I would store all the info you need.. not using TM but using a straight copy of files.
Then clean install Lion. I doubt any of these issues would exist if you had not installed Lion over existing setup or used a different backup.
See if you can get Pondini to respond.. !! -

Why can I no longer use hdmi cable to connect to the tv
WWhy can I no longer use hdmi cable to connect to the tv
Anyway, with the introduction of ios 8.x, apple stopped supporting older a/v cables. You need to get the latest a/v cable with the correct firmware. There is a little chip in the a/v cable. go to the apple store. Buy a new cable. Verify the cable works in the store.
some people report success with a full factory restore.
