you can buy a device which is a cable with a special padlock on the end. the cable goes through the security slot and round something secure, like a wall mounted bar or shelf, and then into the special padlock.
used in pc shop to secure the expensive macs to the shelf to stop people running off with them

When I try to put the updated Firefox icon into my applications folder, I see this message:
The operation can’t be completed because the item “libsoftokn3.dylib” is in use.
I have closed all apps and don't understand what this refers to.

I'm new to Mac and I have a Mac Mini. Could you please tell me how I could paste an URL to a video downloader like "Coolmuster Video Downloader for Mac"? I can copy the url but I could not paste it on the downloader. I appreciate your help to my problem.
Is this happing because the external is formatted to PC and not mac?
Yes that is correct.
Will I need to get a mac external hard drive if I wish to continue to save my documents like this?
If you no longer use a PC you could format this drive for the Mac. However be aware that formatting a drive will erase all the data on it. So you would need someplace to copy the data off this drive to while you did the re-format and then you could copy the data back.
You could get another drive, format it for the Mac and copy the data to it. Then re-format the original drive and use it as a backup drive. Always good to have backups.
Post back with the drive type and size of the current drive, if you are doing backups now and how and if you still need to access this drive from a PC.

all of a sudden my itunes wont come up when i hit the desktop icon. un and re installed many times, tried new users, it finally gave me "you need to reinstall sqmapi.dll " im a noob and i have know idea what that is or where i can get it. i cant open any file or library that has anything to do with itunes except safari and quicktime are fine. im about to pull out whats left of my hair.
Okay, that's got one thing ruled out at least.
Can you check something for me, big? I'd like to see if iTunes launches with the Bonjour Service disabled.
In your Start menu, right-click Computer and select "Manage".
Expand "Services & Applications".
Open "Services". (Perhaps maximise the screen to better see what's going on.)
Right-click the Bonjour Service and select "Properties".
In the General tab, set the Startup type to "Disabled":
... and click OK.
Restart the PC and try launching iTunes. Does it open this time? -
I updated my iTunes as it asked me to and then restarted my computer but iTunes would not open as it said it was corrupted. In addition as I was downloading the new iTunes a PC speed maximizer was downloaded onto my computer and I have no idea what for.

I am not very good on computers and need help, I have lost past history emails when i have used hotmail on my new macbook, they say it is not set right but i do not understand! they say I need to ensure the box 'save a copy to the server' is ticked but they can not help me locate this and I have no idea what to do, can anyone talk me through this please?
Check your mail preferences. The example below is from the mail app that comes with mac. In my case I'm using yahoo mail which is a POP3 account. POP stands for post office protocol which is the set of rules used by a POP mail account to transfer mail. You can learn more about it here if interested. If the box below is checked, all the mail will be downloaded to your computer when you check your mail using the built in mail app and removed from the mail server. Here is another page to help you set up your hotmail account for use the the mac mail application. Hope this clears things up.

How do I remove an email address that is no longer vaild for the iTunes Store or my iPhone? A really old email address keeps popping up on my iPhone, the email address is not valid and I have no idea what the password was. It's been over two years.
Hello tcnolen1,
It sounds like you are trying to change the Apple ID logged into the iTunes & App Stores on your iPhone. Use these steps:
Changing your Apple ID account
Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores, then tap the Apple ID signed in.
Sign out of the current Apple ID account and then sign in with another account or create a new Apple ID.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account

I never had an APPLE ID with this email address and I have no idea why this is this showing to me?
Every time I restore my iPhone from iCloud Backup, this apple id SHOWS UP and asking password. But I never had an APPLE ID with this email address and I have no idea why this is this showing to me? Could anyone help me to remove it from my Applr ID as it seems somehow its linked to my iCloud Backup. Thank you.
<Email Edited By Host>Hi Ralph,
I have received the iPhone 5s from my carrier EE UK. I never had a second hand device as all my previous iPhones received from my carrier. Every time I restore from iCloud backup, first I enter my Apple ID and Password, then it authenticates and goes through next process and updates iCloud settings, right after initial settings then it displayes enter your password where the Apple ID is the metntioned Apple ID and in the bottom it says "Skip this to go next process" or something. I have to press that everytime to skip it, then restore my backup from iCloud and then when I'm in iPhone home it asks me for the password of that mentoned email. So everytime I change the email address to my Apple ID then enter my password that activates my iCloud services and start downloading all the apps I installed.
Its really weird to be honest and I don't know how to remove that email address from that process and seems its there.
N.B. When I had iPhone 4s, Apple Store did replace my iPhone 4s with a new one due to the faulty WiFi. -
We are wanting to reset our ipod but when we go to erase all content it asks us for a restriction password and we have no idea what that is and dont remember ever setting one up. How do we get around this.?
Forgotten RESTRICTIONS Passcode
- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- If you are up to file manipulation see:
How to reset forgotten Restrictions...: Apple Support Communities
As Ana said,
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Hi, I'm moving my site from MobileMe to Filezilla and there is apparently a coding error on iWeb that means when I try to get onto my site there's no access online and it says there are too many redirects. Anyone have any idea what this might be?
Well, firstly Filezilla is not a hosting company but an ftp client that helps you upload your site to your new server. You need to purchase a new hosting account first though.
If you have iWeb 09 then you can publish directly to your new host and you select the publish to ftp option and not MobileMe - MobileMe won't be here after tomorrow.
You can also publish to a local folder if want to and use Filezilla to upload your site to your server.
You don't need re-directs as MobileMe won't be here so you need to cancel and delete your domain name from your MobileMe account and then cancel any domain name forwarding that you have at your domain name registrar - that is what the redirects are about.
Firstly ensure that you have your new hostings account - Filezilla is not a host, rather an ftp client that you use to upload your site. -

why can't I print a pdf file, it's asking for a password and I have no idea what it is it never asked for one before?
Good afternoon SaraThanks for responding. Yes, I have been able to open these files before without a password. Funny thing is it is happening on both my husband's laptop as well as mine. I'd appreciate any help you could give me but the file is very personal. So, if you can assist in a way that won't compromise the security I would be grateful for your help.Thanks and have a great day!Kim Morse
