HT204053 How do I find out what my answers are to my security questions
How do I find out the. Answer my security questions
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple throughiTunes Store Support. -
HT4208 How do you find out what ur answers are for the security question
Neeed help my apple Id is locked and don't remember my answers to the security questions.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Contact Apple through iTunes Store Support, and explain that you have forgotten your 3 security questions, that you can reset your password, but doing so doesn't reset your security questions.
Explain that after resetting your password, you are still asked for the answers you have forgotten, before you can gain access to My Apple ID > Manage your account > Password & security, which is where you need to be to change your answers.
Remember, support will receive hundreds, if not thousands of requests per day, some from people trying it on, others with little explanation and others that are written extremely poorly. Take the time to explain your situation properly, be precise and concise, brief but comprehensive. -
How do I find out what my settings are so I can change them
hi there, I have captured some clips. when I drag them to the timeline, it says "these clips dont match your settings, do you want to convert them to your current settings". I have to say yes. Trouble is, I look at the "item properties" on the clip inside the browser, and it is the same as the clip I put onto the timeline (which supposedly got changed when I dragged it to the timeline). What settings are conflicting and where do I find out?
My capture is set to HD using the HD 72030 codec. I filmed on my HD setting with the 30p frame rate. Is there something wrong with that setting? Please help! I appreciate anyone's help.Hi again... sure. My camera is a Canon XH-A1s set to HD and 30F frame rate. I am not using the on-board mic, but an add-on mic (NTG-1) which has it's XLR input set correctly to ch1/ch2.
The clip properties in the browser:
type: clip
creator: quicktime player
source: ...
offline
size: 145mb
tracks: 1V.2A
vid rate: 29.97 fps
frame size: 1440 x 1080
compressor: Apple intermediate codec
data rate: 8.0 MB/sec
Pixel aspect: HD (1440x1080)
anamorphic (this is not set even tho it is by nature of HD)
field dominance: none
Alpha: none/ignore
Reverse alpha : blank
Composite: normal
Audio : 1 Stereo
Aud Rate: 48.0 KHz (left and right channel both say 48.0 KHz)
Aud Format: 16-bit Integer (left and right channel say 16-bit)
Ok, now after I dragged it down to the timeline and the msg came up and it was "converted", the properties are all the same EXCEPT for info about the audio.
Audio: blank
Aud Rate: interestingly, A1 has 48.0KHz but A2 has that same 48.0KHz greyed out
Aud Format: blank and again A1 has 16-bit integer, but A2 has 16-bit integer greyed out
also, on the timeline, there are 2 audio tracks but there is a small pink triangle at the beginning and the end. I moused over that triangle but I don't know what it is.
very interesting ! do you have any clues how this got this way? I appreciate it ! -

When I go to About This Mac and click on Storage it shows 421.93GB as Other. This only leaves 46.85GB of 499.25GB free. How do I find out what this "Other" is so I can remove the stuff I don't need?
What kind of use do you make of your MBP? A lot of photo or video? If so, you may be storing a lot of large files. Look at Finder and see what the file system looks like. Do you have large libraries of data files associated with applications?
You may want to think about an external hard drive to use for backups and data storage, you can point applications to the external drive as the default storage location.
A good source of external drives at a reasonable price is the Mac specialist, OWC, http://www.macsales.com
I bought their Mercury Elite Pro 2 TB dirve last September and set it up to use part for Time Machine backup and part for other work space. Setup with Disk utility into two partitions is very quick and easy. Just remember to format as Extended Journaled with GUID partition table. Setting the partition sizes is by using a braphical image on screen in DU so it is like falling off a log, so easy. -
Every time I sign into my Macbook, I get an error message from Automator; "The data couldn't be read because it has been corrupted.". I have never created an Automator workflow. How do I find out what Automator is trying to run and stop it?
Maybe it's set as a login item:
- System Preferences: Users and Groups:
- Highlight your user account in the left pane/list
- Click "Login" tab at the top.
See if you have an Automater action on the list
- Note, you can select it, then right-click, and can then select "Reveal in Finder". That way you might have an idea what installed it. -
How do i find out what tcp ports are open? and where do i look it up?
how do i find out what tcp ports are open? and where would i go to see them? i have a program that is asking for it and i am unable to find where those are listed.
If you are not too tech savvy, try using the Network Utility found in the Utilities folder. Just have the Mac scan itself.
If tech savvy, there's always Fyodor's classic NMap, found at www.insecure.org. -
I can not remember my security questions i have not entered a rescue email what do i do ?
i can not remember any of my security questions and i seemed not to enter a rescue email when creating my account what do i do
Hi cturner234!
Some information at the bottom of this article will be useful to you for addressing this question:
Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5312
If you decide not to provide a rescue email address, you can't reset your security questions and answers yourself later in the event you can't remember the answers to your questions. You'll need to contact iTunes Store support to have your questions and answers reset.
Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

My Mac is telling me that my hard drive is almost full, i have used 7.65 GB for Audio. 16.58 GB for Movies, 9.89 GB for photos, 788.6 MB for Apps and 284.03 GB for Other. how can i find out what "other" is so I can delete it? I hope someone can help me.
If OS X is reporting you need to remove some items you obviously have a more severe issue.
To fix your issue is likely too complicated and lengthy to go into all of it here as it sounds like a OS X issue, it will require the services of person very familiar and experienced with Mac's to first recover your data and then restore OS X back to a functional state which may or may not require new hardware/software installed.
If your under warranty or AppleCare, take it in for service.
You can also hire the services of a local Mac computer support technician experienced in these matters.
Have them look at your Wifi, RAM amount, extra storage and computer backup proceedures in the process.
Good Luck. -

My friend had her laptop at my house and wanted to connect to my wireless network... I couldn't remember my password and didn't know how to retrieve the info from my ipad.. How can I find ut what the PW is to my wireless network? Thanks
Your password is something you created and is configured in your router. Your router may have the facility to reveal a password but you will have to find that out for your router.
Alternatively, you can reset your router back to factory default which will remove your security settings so you can reconfigure them. This is usually a small button you press on the back of the router. Maybe recessed in a small hole so you need to use a toothpick to depress it. -

I need help changing my password info on my Apple ID. I can't remember my security questions. They send the answers to a rescue email I no longer use. What can I do or who can I contact?
I've tried that. After logged in, I go to passwords and security. It then tells me to enter my security answers (that I can't remember). It sends those answers to my rescue email that I no longer use. Therefore, I can't retrieve my answers or change my rescue email.... I'm still stuck.
