I want to put my wifi password in for internet but mac automatically connects, how can i stop this?

So I connect to my wifi automatically, but recently I simply want it to ask for a wifi password instead of automatically connecting because other people use this MacBook also...

Doesn't each user have a login with a different password.. the login on the Macbook itself is much more important than the wireless login.
You should be able to set the Airport or wifi to not remember the password.
Untick remember the network.. clean them all out of the airport settings and start over..

likely the microswitches inside the remote are broken and you need a new remote

I don't know how you received an upgrade for iTunes. You make it sound like it was sent to you. At most your computer will tell you of a new version and you tell it to download it and install it. However, a computer will not do this for a version which is incompatible. iTunes 10.7 came out a few weeks ago but your computer would not notify you and even if it did, 10.7 would refuse to install on your computer. So this part isn't making a lot of sense.
Two ways to get the 'newer version' message. One is to open your library on a computer running a newer version, and then try to open it with an older version. Usually happens when the library is on an external and used with multiple computers. The second way is if you have multiple versions of itunes installed on your computer.
The newest (and likely the last) iTunes for OSX 10.5.8 is iTunes 10.6.3 which has been out for quite a while.

HT201365 I like the additional security features but don 't want to type in a password every time I use my phone. How can I turn off the requirement for a password but leave "Find my Phone" active?

HT5624 My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password. Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts. How can we stop this happening?

My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password. Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts. How can we stop this happening?

A couple of different approached:
Create a second AppleID for one of you that includes the email address and phone number you wish to use for messaging, but do not apply it to the iTunes and app store (just keep the current one). My wife and I do this and it works quite well. Also allows for easier syncing of Contacts , notes etc. using icloud if you wish to do that.
Add additional emails/phone numbers to the existing account and change the Send/Receive settings for Messages. this will not fix the Contcts isues for you however.

My iMac can discover WiFi but won't connect how do i fix this?

My iMac will discover WiFi connections, i type in the right password but it wont connect how do i fix this?

A lot of older iMacs only support the original Airport, and not Airport Extreme. PowerPC (PPC) iMacs that have extreme are limited to 802.11g, and can't do 802.11n. Those with the original airport only support 802.11b, and the insecure WPA/TKIP or WEP encryption, and are better served via ethernet to a WiFi ethernet bridge.
The airport card typically is not built-in. Verify with http://www.everymac.com/ what the status of your iMac was, and/or see this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2256
Intel iMacs that are Core2Duo can be upgraded to 802.11n with the 802.11n enabler. You'll have to contact the Apple Store online nearest you to determine if you can still download it, as it is not on their website.
To determine if you already have it, see this tip:

That is a new Continuity feature described in Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
You can turn it off by going to Settings > FaceTime and changing "iPhone Cellular Calls" to off.
You may also want to consider using separate Apple IDs. That is more flexible now with new Family Sharing features: http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/

You may have an unwanted extension that is modifying sites (or the toolbar area). Try this:
Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that flush the tab?
Please report back on anything suspicious you find so others can learn about its bad behavior.

HT1766 Hi, I share an iTunes account with my wife. Sometimes she gets my iMessages and I don't and vice versa. Also if people face time me it goes to her phone. How can I stop this from happening?

You can share the same Apple ID in
Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: here
But for all other Apple services like:
FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, etc, one of you should use a different Apple ID.

The iPod sees the new computer as a new iTunes library. You can only sync with one iTunes library. However, you can manage music among disfferent computers. See:

Restart your phone,hold the home button and the off button down till the apple symbol comes up. If that doesnt fix it , you need to do a restore in itunes by connecting to itunes , click on your phones name to the left, then click restore in the center of the screen and restore from backup.
