I replaced my keyboard batteries and the light is flashing so it is in discovery mode. But I am stuck on the home page where I need to type my password, without a keyboard. Aluminum trick didn't work. What do I do?
I shut off my computer and the next day replaced the batteries in my keyboard after getting the low battery message. After replacing them and turning the keyboard on and off the green LED was blinking which meant it was in discovery mode. The problem is I can't login to my computer because I need to type in a password. But I can't use the keyboard so I can't use my mouse to find the device because I can't login. The aluminum ball trick did not work and I did recheck the battery life and they are in the right way. How do I fix this?

I recently spilled liquid on my computer, but it is up and running, it loads and brings me to the safe boot screen where I need to type my password, but It is not recognizing it, help! How do I get passed it or fix it! I have tried holding the apple key and "s" and then type in the code to reset the password, but my keyboard is not letting me use the numbers or any keys that are accessed by holding shift! Please help me get passed this screen
Fluids and electronics do not mix.
You have caused some serious damage to parts of your computer, and likely voided the warranty until Apple completes a repair and re-certifies it.
Step one is to turn it off and do NOT (did I say do NOT yet?) turn it on again yourself.
Take it to an Apple store and be prepared for a large repair bill.
Sorry, but that is the truth. -
Hi all, I upgraded my MBP to Lion , but on the screen where i need to type my password, click on my photo and it does not appear the place for me to type my password and it stay stuck there. Can anyone solve this problem for me?
Reboot the machine holding Command and r keys down, you'll boot into Lion Recovery Partition
In there will be Disk Utility, use that to select your Lion OS X Partition and Repair Permissions.
After that is done reboot the machine and see if you can log in.
If not repeat the above steps to get into Lion Recovery, get online and reinstall Lion again, it will overwrite the installed version and hopefully after that it wil work.
Reboot and try again.
If not follow my steps to create a Snow Leopard Data Recovery drive, then option boot from it and grab a copy of your files off the machine.
Then reinstall all your programs onto the external drive like setting up a new machine, then use Disk Utility to erase the entire internal boot drive (select the drive media on the far left, not the partiton slightly indented) format Option: GUID , 1 partition OS X Extended and then use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the external to the newly formatted internal drive. Once that is finished reboot and disconnect the external drive.
Once you go that, boot into Snow Leopard and update to 10.6.8, use the AppStore and option click on Purchases and download Lion again and install.
Lots of work, but there is no Lion disks.

Procon Latte is not working and the home page is up for sale. Is it still viable?
It worked fine until last week. I have a password on the settings but nothing is working. Is it still a good add-on?
It worked, keeping out the bad words, I checked my settings but it stopped working. And the creator no longer has a web page.

Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

I can't see the Home Pages view when syncing my IPad Air with iTunes
I have transferred about 80 apps from my previous ipad2 by syncing the new iPad Air in iTunes (using the USB connection). The Home Screens view in the Apps tab of iTunes does not show the individual pages, so I cannot regroup my Apps into logical groups.
There is a momentary flash on the screen showing what looks like a Home page, then it vanishes to show a blank view.
Both the iPad Air (64GB, wifi & cellular) and my copy of iTunes are up-to-date.Interestingly this seems to have sorted itself.
When I was trying it yesterday, it was my first syncing of the new iPad Air, and the Home Pages were not visible in iTunes.
Today I reconnected and carried out an automated backup, then when I selected the Apps tab - there were all the Home Pages.
Not sure why this should happen, but - problem solved! -
When I open Safari, it goes to the home page but there is no tool bar at the top of the window, and the home page is in the middle of a white window that is full screen. I cannot do anything with Safari because there is no toolbar. how do I get the tool bar back.
Thanks for any help.
PhillipSounds like you are in Full screen mode. Run your cursor to the top of the page and click on the blue arrows on the right hand side.

How do I set the home page for a new tab?
How do I set the web page for when I open a new tab? Whenever I open a new tab it goes to an error site which freezes my firefox browser for a while. How do I change that? I want to open new tabs with google being the home page. I need to set up the homepage for a new tab NOT a new window. Please help! !
If Google is set as your Homepage in Firefox you can middle-click ''(push down on the mouse wheel)'' to open Google in a new Tab.
Or, you can add the feature to Firefox where clicking the New Tab button on the Tab Bar opens your Homepage in a new Tab. <br />
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/
And if you have a different Homepage set, this extension allows for any page you set in the extension's options to open when you use the new Tab button. <br />

I just installed Firefox last night and the home page is in a foreign language. I cannot use it to navigate, as I cannot read the language.
You can try to delete search.sqlite and search.json in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]
You can also try to reset the defaults:
# Left-click the search engines icon on the search bar
# Open "Manage Search Engines"
# Click "Restore Defaults"

I have been using my IMac without a problem when I left it and went back to enter the password the IMac did not see the keyboard. I have changed the batteries and the green light comes up on the keyboard and then starts to flash indicating it is looking for the IMac but nothing happens. I have tried another set of new batteries with the same result. Is there any known problems in this area. The IMac is 5 months old.
Thank you for any helpWhat operating system does your iMac have? (please always post your operating system to prevent confustion).

Hello I'm trying to update my applications and it is asking me to sign in and checking my billing account .it is not accepting my billing account that I use tried to change it several time it didn't work .what can I do to solve it?
What happens when you try to confirm your details, if you are getting an error message then what does it say ? For a card to be accepted (debit cards are no longer accepted in all countries) it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address as on your account, and have been issued by a bank in your country. If it's not being accepted then do you get the 'none' option on your account ?
