I want to create a sign on PW without using file vault

I have an MPB and I want to have the screen and computer secured via a logon PW, but I don't want to use file vault.
It has been a while and I have my password that allows me install software and make changes etc.
How do I make that same PW to be the PW every time I start up or wake up the computer?

Disable Automatic Login under System preferences, Accounts, Options
You will then have to enter your password on the login screen to unlock everything
To easily lock the screen with a single mouse click, open Keychain Access, then choose preferences and click "show state in the menu bar"
You will then see a lock appearing in the upper right corner of the menu bar.
Clicking it will reveal a menu with a lock screen option
Hope that helps

    Thanks so much.  I downloaded Acrobat XI.  It's been "extracting" for the past 30 minutes (even with a fast wi-fi).  Hope this is not a problem.

  • How do I create a webpage in Dreamweaver WITHOUT using layers?

    I'm reading a lot about how we should not use layers and
    tables when creating a website in Dreamweaver because of something
    called "absolute placement" (or something), which is the reason the
    text in my website is constantly misaligned or overlapping when
    opened up in Firefox. Although, I've never had this problem before
    for the past three years I've been using Dreamweaver to create my
    sites, which is what's most frustrating I think.
    So, I guess I'm wondering how, then, do I create a webpage in
    Dreamweaver WITHOUT using layers and tables? The only thing I've
    been able to do w/o layers/tables is to literally hit "enter" and
    "tab" continuously until the cursor is somewhere close to where I
    want it to be on the page. But that seems a little old-school (for
    lack of a better term) to really be the way to do it.
    Also, if I've used a lot of layers/tables already in my
    website, is the general recommendation for be to rebuild my site
    completely w/o layers/tables, or is it feasible for me to have
    someone who knows HTML just come in and fix the actual HTML code
    for me to make it all work?
    Ideally, I just want something to help me fix this problem
    w/o having to hire someone else to come in, cause I've been working
    this site for about a year now and am just now finally getting it
    up online only to find that the way it looks online is not the way
    it looks in Dreamweaver. I'd really really appreciate any
    suggestions/advice.
    Thank you so much!

    Hello,
    The first bit of advice, which you may already be doing, it
    to learn HTML
    and CSS.
    CSS is used to style and position elements.
    Instead of adding numerous   to add spacing, for
    example, you can use
    CSS to add margins or padding to elements to move them away
    from other
    elements.
    Also, IMHO there is nothing wrong with using tables,
    specially as you learn.
    You can also use <divs> and CSS to position them (a
    table-less layout).
    There are a number of threads in this forum comparing them
    and giving many
    designer's views.
    It's Dreamweaver's "Layout Mode" you should stay away
    from.Use "Standard
    Mode"
    It creates tables with rowspanss and colspans that are very
    fragile.
    Something as simple as a user having a different text size
    setting in their
    browser than what you had in yours when you designed can make
    the page break
    apart.
    More info:
    http://apptools.com/rants/spans.php
    Also, "Layers" are an older DW term for AP Divs (Absolutely
    Positioned).
    They can cause you a lot of frustration.
    More info:
    http://apptools.com:80/examples/pagelayout101.php
    I would strongly suggest you take a couple of hours to do
    these tutorials.
    They are a great introduction to using CSS, making a
    stylesheet and using
    DW's "wizards".
    They are very well written, illustrated and easy to follow.
    I promise you will walk away with a different outlook on how
    you can design
    a page.
    They are not intended to replace learning HTML or CSS in any
    way, I just
    think it will benefit you greatly seeing what you can do.

  • Is it possible to create a DVD in iDVD without using the themes they provide?

    Is it possible to create a DVD in iDVD without using the themes they provide?

    Hi
    No Menu DVD
    from. Mishmunken
    How to create a DVD in iDVD6 without menu (there are several options)
    1. Easy. Drop your iMovie in the auto-play box in iDVD's Map View, then set your auto-play item (your movie) to loop continuously.
    Disadvantage. The DVD plays until you hit stop on the remote
    2. Still easy. If you don't want your (auto-play) movie to loop, you can create a black theme by replacing the background of a static theme with a black background and no content in the drop-zone (text needs to be black as well).
    Disadvantage. The menu is still there and will play after the movie. You don't see it, but your disc keeps spinning in the player.
    3. Still quite easy but takes more time. Export the iMovie to DV tape, and then re-import using One-Step DVD.
    Disadvantage. One-Step DVD creation has been known to be not 100% reliable.
    4. (My preferred method) Easy enough but needs 3rd party software. Toast lets you burn your iMovie to DVD without menu - just drag the iMovie project to the Toast Window and click burn.
    Disadvantage. you'll need to spend some extra $$ for the software. In Toast, you just drop the iMovie project on the Window and click Burn.
    5. The "hard way". Post-production with myDVDedit (free-ware)
    Tools necessary. myDVDedit ( www.mydvdedit.com )
    • create a disc image of your iDVD project, then double-click to mount it.
    • Extract the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders to a location of your choice. select the VIDEO_TS folder and hit Cmd + I to open the Inspector window
    • Set permissions to "read & write" and include all enclosed items; Ignore the warning.
    • Open the VIDEO_TS folder with myDVDedit. You'll find all items enclosed in your DVD in the left hand panel.
    • Select the menu (usually named VTS Menu) and delete it
    • Choose from the menu File > Test with DVD Player to see if your DVD behaves as planned. If it works save and close myDVDedit.
    • Before burning the folders to Video DVD, set permissions back to "read only", then create a disc image burnable with Disc Utility from a VIDEO_TS folder using Laine D. Lee's DVD Imager.

    i have all my pictures in an external drive (around 1tb), how do i create a library in iphoto without using my internal drive space? thanks!

    In iPhoto use the command "File > Switch to Library" and then click "Create New" in the Library Chooser panel.
    Select a folder on your external drive as the destination.
    You can also get to this panel by holding down the alt/options key when you launch iPhoto.

  • Create a Multiple-Line JButton Without Using HTML format

    I used html format for multiple-line JButton and it took a long time to load that button up (about 5 seconds more). Does anyone know how to create a multiple-line JButton without using html?
    Any suggestion or sample code will be appreciated.
    javamesser

    Hello,
    You could try using the following:
    -give your button some layout (e.g.: BoxLayout.Y_AXIS, or BorderLayout).
    -create the wrapped text in separate JLabels (one line in each label)
    -add your labels to the button
    Advantage:
    this solution does not affect the laf classes
    Disadvantage:
    focus rectangle is not calculated accurately

  • How to create another instance on linux without using dbca?

    I have an oracle database (or instance) named viton1 on my linux.
    Now I want to create another instance (or database) named viton2 on my linux without using dbca.
    I know I can create a database by runing a sql script : create database ......
    But my problem is:
    before I can run the script for create database, I must startup nomount database.
    Before I can startup nomount the instance, I have to connect the instance.
    So I do it:
    $sqlplus /nolog
    sql > conn sys/password as sysdba;
    sql >
    then I connected to viton1, that's not what I expected.
    In order not to connect to viton1, I set ORACLE_SID=viton2. Then it show error: insufficient privilege.
    Who can tell me the right way to create another database without using dbca?
    Thanks in advance.

    In $ORACLE_BASE/admin you should have a directory structure for the viton1 instance : create a similar directory structure for the viton2 instance.
    In the pfile subdirectory create the initviton2.ora file : you can copy it from initviton1.ora file and change all occurrences of viton1 to viton2.
    At OS prompt : export ORACLE_SID=viton2, then
    sqlplus /nolog
    conn / as sysdba
    startup nomount pfile=$ORACLE_BASE/admin/viton2/pfile/initviton2.ora
    then CREATE DATABASE.....

  • Creating an ajustable 3d shape (without using any plugins, Away 3D etc).

    I followed this youtube video:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&NR=1&v=PfR9n0eZJvs
    And I created a 3D cube in flash using the 3D rotation tool and registration points. I know it isnt truely 3D it more like 2.5D.
    I have the finish item and its cool but I was wondering, how would I go about using actionscript to edit the cube. I would ideally like to be able to edit the size of the cube maybe extrude it in some way. Also how could I spin it on its axis In a similar way to using the 3D rotation tool.
    I dont know how to do these things without ruining the effect on the cube itself.
    Im relatively new to Flash and AS3 but im trying to really emerse myself until I have really mastered it at a high level. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers

    convert your cube to a movieclip and use its 3d properties.

  • Creating context-sensitive HTML Help without using Map #s

    I am uisng RH 8 and am producing a compiled HTML Help file.
    I am wondering if there is another way to call a topic from our application without using the MAP numbers in RH.
    The developer would like to use the MAP ID (string) instead.
    Is there a way to do this?
    Please let me know.
    Thanks.

    Your points are valid but there are also situations when urls are an excellent method.
    For some projects our developers name fields and we have a method of identifying the name applied. We use that as our filename. By that means they know what the help file will be and can create the call before the topic exists and we don't have to maintain map ids for those projects. If we should fail to create the topic, the call has the logic to go to a higher level.
    I wouldn't advise using map ids or urls, I would say understand how both work, their pros and cons, and then decide what works for the project.

  • I want to configure the 7330 motion controller without using MAX

    I am new to labview and I have a project where I have to configure the 7330 motion controller without using MAX. What do I need to do to get started doing so?
    Thanks for the help!
    nw2labview

    Hi,
    There are several VI's that are included with the motion driver for configuring your controller.  They are located on the function pallete under Vision and Motion>>Ni-Motion>>Axis Configuration.  Using these VI's you will be able to configure your axis.  But why don't you want to use MAX?  If you are new to LabVIEW I would suggest configuring and testing your motor in MAX first before you start programing.  Once you have it working there you may want to look at several of the examples such as Simple One-Axis Move.vi.  I hope this helps.
