Is any information stored on an AirPort?

Hello,
I'm planning on selling an old iBook, AirPort, etc. as a lot. Unfortunately, I don't have a power adapter for the AirPort so I can't plug it in. Is there any sensitive information stored on the AirPort unit itself? Is there anything I should physically remove from inside the unit since I can't find the power adapter? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

It contains the name and password of your network. If you use DSL service with a "dumb" modem, it also contains your DSL sign-on details. Any of this can be changed when you sell the AirPort unit.
By the way, I would expect an AirPort unit without its power adapter to sell for quite a bit less than one with such an adapter.

    You would have to delete the existing iCloud account and create a wholly new one - you cannot change the @icloud.com email address of the one you already have.  To make a new one, you will also need an new AppleID as any AppleID can only have one iCloud account associated with it.
    Deleting the account will not delete anything off your device (if prompted for things like contacts, choose to keep them).  You will have to sync everything anew with the new account as you cannot move your sync'd content, your old backups or anything else from one iCloud account to another.  You will have to set up sync again and let it sync to the new account, and then make new backups to the new account as well.

  • When I login I get a message "aosnotifyd wants to use your confidential information stored in "my name" in your keychain." How do I know if it is safe to allow this? Can anyone advise please?

    My immediate reaction is to deny.
    Have you downloaded or installed any application that may relate to the abbreviation AOS? It may not necessarily be the application's name, could be the developer or distributor.
    As it's occuring at log-in, go to System Preferences > Accounts > your account > Login Items and look for a related item. If there's one there, right-click (or ctrl click) on it and select Reveal in Finder. That will show you where the originator of the item is on your system and should give you more of a clue as to what it is.
    I'd remove the item from login items anyway (highlight and click the minus sign at the bottom of the window). There shouldn't be anything trying to use your keychain info to notify anyone.

  • Information stored in "Adobe.APS" in your keychain message

    Hi all,
    I've developed an application using Adobe AIR 1.5.3 and am looking into upgrading to AIR 2.0. When I install the AIR 2.0 runtime and try to upgrade an existing AIR 1.5.3 application to a new AIR 2.0 application I get the following message when the application starts:
    <AppName> wants to use your confidential information stored in "Adobe.APS" in your keychain.
    One of the first things that the application tries to do when it starts is access encrypted local storage (I'm assuming that this is where this message is coming from).
    Is there any way to avoid this message when upgrading to AIR 2.0?
    Thanks
    Sean

    Thanks for taking the time to look into this Chris,
    I've one other issue where a person trying to install the AIR 1.5.3 application I work on is having difficulties during install. Here's what their .airappinstall.log file looks like:
    Starting silent app install of file:///C:/Users/Gordon/AppData/Local/Temp/Eye-Fi_Center.air

    Their .airinstall.log file looks like this:

    App installer failed; exit code 7
    begin quitting
    I tried asking the user to uninstall an older version of Eye-Fi Center via the Control Panel before attempting another reinstall of Eye-Fi Center, but that didn't seem to do any good.
    FWIW, this user is running Adobe AIR 2.0.2.12610 and the application in question has been developed to work with AIR 1.5.3. A quick snippet from it's application descriptor file looks like this:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    <application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.5">
    <id>fi.eye.center</id>
    <filename>Eye-Fi Center</filename>
    They're seeing a popup at the end of installation which says:
    "This installation of this application is damaged. Try re-installing or contacting the publisher for assistance."
    I don't mean to hijack this 'Adobe.APS' thread with a separate issue - if you feel that this second issue would be better served in a separate thread, please let me know and I'll repost.
    Thanks again for your help - much appreciated.

  • Translate wants to use your confidential information stored in.....?

    I don't know why, but all of a sudden, I keep getting this message from my mail program. I keep saying Deny, but it comes back. I have searched relentlessly and have found no answers. Since the app is called translate, all I keep getting are translation information. Nothing to do with whatever is going on here.
    Here is a copy of the message:
    *translate wants to use your confidential information stored in "Exchange" in your keychain.*
    I don't know if this is legit, or if it is something malicious. Can anyone with any knowledge in this, please enlighten me.
    TIA, Billy

    First the basics.
    Which mail program?
    Any third party software being used in conjunction with mail or to enhance the system? (e.g., There are translation programs which are meant to interact with mail, I think.)
    What happens if you search your mac for the string "translate", any applications show up?

  • How do I stop the popup "identityservicesd wants to use your confidential information stored in " key " in your keychain"?   Always allow doesn't work.

    I repeatedly see the popup:
    "identityservicesd wants to use your confidential information stored in "<key>" in your keychain"
    If I click "always allow" it still comes up.
    I've followed instructions elsewhere on this forum to open Keychain Access and use First Aid, but to no avail.
    Previously I would receive the popup "messages app wants to use your confidential information..." but I changed the Access Control to allow all applications to access this item, hoping that would do the trick.  But sadly it didn't work.
    Any ideas?
    (Also, ever since upgrading to Mavericks, it wants to go through first-time setup every time I log in.  I'm prompted to enter my iCloud password, etc. etc. but the above problem predates that)

    My immediate reaction is to deny.

  • On start up I get message: indentityservicesd wants to use your confidential information stored in FaceTime (email) in your keychain

    Hello  when I downloaded software OSX 10.9.1 now on startup I get this message 2 times: Identityservicesd wants to use your confidential information stored in Facetime @yahoo.com in your keychain. This is very annoying and slows my computer down. I dont use or dont want to use Facetime and Keychain is annoying also but i dont know how to delete either one.

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
    Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
    If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
    Select
    Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

  • Is there any information about using iCloud on a Mac with multiple user accounts (Mountain Lion)

    When upgrading to Mountain Lion, you are asked to sign in using your iCloud ID.  I don't understand how to set up the proper synching of "stuff" if your Mac has multiple user accounts, and they each have their own iCloud ID.
    The whole issue of supporting multiple users on a Mac and making everything easy to understand with regard to iTunes and iCloud is, in my opinion, currently in a state of disaster.  Apple needs to address this.  They have conveniently made it a non-issue on iPads by not allowing multiple users.  I can tell you that as one of the resident iOS and Apple experts in my office, most of the questions I get from others (not work-related) are on this topic.  It needs to be easier to understand and accomplish.
    Thanks in advance for any information you have on this subject.

  • Where's the information stored of the CLP (mycontacts)?

    Hi all,
    I have a question to the Collaboration Launch Pad CLP, for example accessing the CLP by
    http://<myPortal>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.netweaver.coll.shared.ui.CollaborationLaunchPad
    I'm able to add Contact Lists / Contacts / Room members to My Contacts.
    The question for me is, where are theses information stored (where are theses groups and members of mycontacts stored) and is this user-dependend? (because I tried to login under 2 different users, but they both got the same contacts, perhaps as they’re both collaboration admins? But with a 3rd user, ha hasn’t any users available under the CLP?)
    In the CLP view My Contacts are displayed with <myname>_root
    and in the URL there is a alias/%3Cmycontacts%3E to find.
    But I had a look in KM, under the "userhome"-repository, but couldn't find there any stored information, relating to the mycontacts content?
    Can somebody help me please?
    Thanks
    Best regards
    Nenad

    Hi,
    This information is stored in the KM root folder --> ume --> contacts
    You require the content administration role to access this information.
    Go to Content administration -->KM content to access the KM root folder

  • Where is the connection information stored for Mac Remote Desktop?

    I want to restore Mac Remote Desktop connection information from a Time Machine backup to a new Mac.  On the new Mac, I've installed Remote Desktop from the App Store and installed all the files found in
    ~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.rdc.mac from
    a Time Machine backup.  But I don't see my old connections.  I also don't see any connection information in my Time Machine backup here
    ~/Documents/RDC Connections.
    Where is the connection information stored?

    The path is correct. You could try to get an console log during application launch. This log might give you information why the information is missing.

    Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

  • Any information on the firmware update?

    I see that apple has released a firmware update (1.0) for the MBP. But I didn't find any information on what has been updated. I wonder if it is just a few changes to allow the new BootCamp beta to work.
    Mark

    Installed with only one noticable difference, it looks as though it might have helped my intermiyyant airport signal problem. I'm one of the lucky few with a week 8 MBP and absolutely NO issues except that I have had questionable signal dropout out and an intermittant nature to my wireles connectivity. With the firmware update it apears as though that may be remedied. No real way ot quantify that yet but so far so good. It certainly hasn't hurt anything.

  • Where the servlet information stored?

    where the servlet information stored if I overriding the function getServletInfo? I am using Tomcat 4.1.12

    It is stored in the servlet instance as a String variable. getServletInfo by default returns an empty String. When you over ride the method all of the information is stored in the servlet just like any other variable data.

  • System preferences wants to use confidential information stored in my keychain

    Images are not being displayed in emails on my Mac. This includes sending photos from iphoto via email. When going in to System Preferences to see what I need to check, I get the window which reads "System Preferences wants to use your confidential information stored in "imap.aol.com" in your keychain. Should I "always allow", "deny" or "allow"?
    I recently synched my contacts via icloud with my mac and my iphone (which created a whole different problem). That is the only thing I can think of that I have done recently (?). Speaking of the contacts issue, now my phone does not have the phone numbers and all of the information of my contacts as I had on my phone before the icloud synch. Now, the contacts in my phone seem to be mostly email addresses that were stored on my mac and no phone numbers!!! WT? Help. My love for Apple is waning.

    I too am losing confidence in Apple. I want to be able to make these choices and still have access to my apps.
