Is there a way to keep my child from changing the passcode I set up on his iPhone4? If not, how can I gain access to his phone if he refuses to tell me the passcode?

He has an iPhone 4 running iOS 7.1.2. When setting up restrictions on his phone, there is no option to disable changing the passcode. He is very deceitful and has changed the passcode on it before, which resulted in me having to do a factory restore. I want to be able to see what he's looking at and doing on it.

I copied the iTunes file from the external drive and it's in both places.  I thought all I would need is the iTunes program (which I downloaded to new computer) and my iTunes library file.  There must be something else that's missing.  My iTunes library looks the same on the new computer as it does when I open it on the external drive.  If I click on an iTunes library song from my new computer, it will only play if I have the external drive plugged in.
My back-up drive is a mess.  I have multiple copies of music, video, photo, and document files and I don't know how that happened. ={  Obviously, I don't know how to back up stuff properly and there are back-up files extending over a 6- to 8-year period.  I think all I did was just drag and drop the main folders from the back-up drive to the same main folders on the C: drive.  Also (and I'm kind of fuzzy on this) Windows used to automatically save music files in a folder within my document files (which makes no sense to me).  As my Jewish friends would say, "Oy Vey!"

  • Is there a way to keep Bookmark Order from changing as part of sync?

    Since I added Aurora on my tablet and my phone, and set up sync, apparently those bookmarks toolbar are in a different order than my ones on my desktop. Every time I start my desktop versions, the toolbars are in some random order (the most visited all the way to the right, list order changed). Now I generally put my items in order of use, and not in alphabetical. Is there anyway that I make it so that my sync with my mobile devices will not adjust the order of my bookmark sync?

    Sorry, this is apparently a bug in Firefox Aurora for Android. I'll make sure the developers know about it and hopefully it will be fixed soon.

  • Is there a way to keep my Mac Pro On the network without sleeping???

    i'll try to explain this the best way I can. I often wish to access my Mac Pro over the network either for file sharing, or for use with Apple Remote Desktop. The problem is after about 20-30 minutes, the Mac Pro sleeps and disappears from the network. Is there a way to keep it on the network without turnig off sleep mode? I really don't want the hard drives working 24/7 if possible....
    Thanks in advance!

    P.S. I'm sure it doesn't matter, but just in case..I'm using the new Apple Airport Extreme base station.

    In the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences, check the 'Wake for Ethernet network administrator access' checkbox under the Options tab, and then use an application such as this one to send it the signal.

  • Premiere Pro CC's sequence lost. Is there a way to "search" for it from outside the project?

    I seem to have lost a sequence created in Premiere Pro CC. I can't find it anywhere inside the Project bin.
    We have so many same-name, older projects (between Auto-Save, different drives and so on) that looking inside each of them would take forever.
    But we do know the name of the sequence. I am wondering  if there is a way to "search" for a sequence name from outside the project?
    Thanks

    there is a way to "search" for a sequence name outside of the project,
    but it would be a pointless waste of time.
    sequences are only saved within the project file itself!!
    We have so many same-name, older projects (between Auto-Save, different drives and so on) that looking inside each of them would take forever.
    better get at it then!

  • Is there a way to prevent a user from using the graph cursor legend to delete a cursor?

    I would like to have 2 cursors on a graph that can't be deleted by the user.

    Hi Dennis,
    I'm having this problem as well, and found your post. Are you referring to the Enabled State of the entire graph?  If so, this prevents the user from moving the cursor at all while the VI is running, which, of course, defeats the purpose of having a cursor at all.  Ideally, I would like to show the cursor palette and disable it's run-time shortcut menu.  This doesn't appear to be possible.   One workaround would be to hide the palle and instead include some indicators that show the cursors' values.  I'd prefer to show the palette to keep the program simpler.
    Any other solutions?
    Thanks,

  • How can you gain access to your mac if you forget the password

    I need help accessing my computor because I forgot my username

    Look below your /Users/username/ folder, the one with the House icon. The name is your username.
    Forgot Your Account Password
    For Snow Leopard and earlier
         Mac OS X 10.6- If you forget your administrator password
    For Lion/Mountain Lion
        Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
         When the menubar appears select Terminal from the Utilities menu.
         Enter resetpassword at the prompt and press RETURN. Follow
         instructions in the dialog window that will appear.
         Or see Reset a Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Password and
         OS X Lion- Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    If you are unable to boot from an installer DVD:
    (these will only work on Leopard or earlier)
      1. Boot to Safe Mode by restarting and after the chime press and hold down
          the COMMAND-S keys until a black screen with white type appears.
      2. At the prompt, type the following commands pressing return after each
          command line:
         /sbin/fsck -yf
         If you do not receive a "Filesystem OK" message then repeat this command
         until you do.  If after seven tries you still do not receive a "Filesystem OK"
         message, then the system is corrupted and needs to be reinstalled.
         mount -uw /
         cd /private/var/db/netinfo
         mv local.nidb local.old
         rm ../.AppleSetupDone
         shutdown -r now
    The second-to-last command above will cause OS X to think that the operating system is newly installed, and when the new owner starts up the computer it will send him/her to the startup wizard where he/she can start a new user without reinstalling.
    This last method does not actually change a password. It simply removes the user accounts and lets you create an initial admin account as if the computer were new out of the box.
    Reset Admin Password Using The Terminal
    You can reset the password by printing out (or writing down) and carefully following these steps.
    First, find the short name of the admin user on the machine. The easiest way of doing this is by looking at what the directory is called in the Users folder.
    Now, start in Single-user Mode. It should boot into a command line.
    Enter these exact lines. Press RETURN after each.
    mount -uw /
    ifconfig lo0 up
    cd /var/db/netinfo
    netinfod -s local
    Now you'll need that short name. Enter "passwd", a space, and the short name of the admin. For example, if the admin was rather prosaically called "imadmin", you would enter "passwd imadmin".
    The computer will now prompt you to change the password for "lmadmin" (or whatever the short name was). Go ahead and enter a new password.
    Now, enter:
    sync
    reboot
    and the machine will reboot. The admin password should now be changed.

  • Is there a way to keep an app downloaded to the computer but take it off my iPhone?

    I'm just looking to get more space on my iPhone. And I don't necessarily want to delete apps I paid for completely. Can anyone direct me how to do that?

    In addition to Julian's good advice, on iPhone to remove an App without using iTunes, just hold down a finger on an iPhone screen App, when the icons jiggle about, tap the X of the App you want to remove from the iPhone, and remove it.

  • Is there any way to decrease latency other than changing the I/O buffer

    Hello,
    I'm recording with two presonus firepods linked together. which allow for me to record up to 16 track at a time. I'm noticing some latency that makes it somewhat hard to record with. I do not want to lower the buffer for fear of intruducing distortion. is there any other way to lower latency levels in logic? If not would switching to a different interface help? if so, which one can you recamend?
    thanks

    After you've determined the smallest possible buffer setting for your system to run properly, the easiest way to achieve a minimal latency system from that point on is to have an external mixer for monitoring the audio you're recording. This way you're don't have to monitor audio thru your DAW software.
    Apparently, software monitoring latencies are getting better (see the extensive thread/debate about the Symphony system on this forum -- search for "Symphony"). The only reason you'd need to use software monitoring is if you use plug-ins on the input channel(s) of what you're recording. Otherwise, software monitoring of audio thru your DAW does nothing but add latency (delay) to your monitored signal, as well as cause you to go prematurely gray in trying to deal with it.
    I believe the Firepods are FW devices, and if so, there could be not only an increased amount of latency over, say, PCI-based systems, but the amount of latency might be variable every time you boot your system (there are extensive threads about this phenomenon on this forum -- do a search and you'll find them). If you're experiencing this, it is probably due, in short, to problems with the way the FW drivers are written.
    I have a PCI-based system (MOTU, PCI-e 424) and putting arguments over whether MOTU stuff sounds the same, better, or worse than any other audio interface, this kind of system never experiences random changes in latency.
    The other thing you must do is calibrate your recording delay. Again, with certain FW systems you might have to do this each time you boot your system. But I can tell you that with the card-based system I'm using, my latency and hence my recording delay settings never change, and I can be assured that what I record plays back in exactly the right spot every time.
    BTW, the recording delay can be adjusted by using a simple looback test (again, there are numerous threads on this forum which explain how this is accomplished).

  • HT201304 iOS parental controls do not prevent the child from changing the device passcode.

    So the parent cannot get into the device at all unless the child provides the passcode. Sure, the device can be taken away until the child provides the passcode, but why don't parental controls just prevent the passcode from being changed?  Either that, or the parental control passcode should allow the parent to get into the device, over-riding the passcode lock.

    We are not Apple iOS programmers.  Just device users like yourself.

  • Is there a way to keep Deployment Utility from modifying sequence file paths?

    While the Deployment Utility appears to be a great tool, it does some things that I'd rather it didn't. One is that it modifies all paths in sequence that it is including from Absolute to Relative. While this is a nice feature for many reasons, it is a show-stopper for our uses. This is because as part of our distribution process, we also use a checksum routine to verify that the sequence files being run by the operators on the Test Stations we deploy to are running the correct (unmodified) version of the test software. By using Absolute paths, we can detect and prevent accidental editing/changing of the sequences or paths that we have deployed, but if we have to use relative paths that is something that we could work with also.
    So my questions are: 1. Can this path update 'feature' be disabled? and 2. If not, then will pre-setting all paths in a sequence cause the deployment utility to only copy the file and not update it (thus changing it's checksum)?
    I'm going to test the latter when I have time, and if there are any other suggestions that might be useful, I'm love to hear them.
    Thanks,
    -Jack 

    Rick,
    In my experimentation to see if using relative paths, I was able to prove that a sequence that uses them will not be updated - with one caveat; if the path that is referenced by the sequence is not itself in a sub-directory, i.e.; it's in a different branch of the relative directory structure with respect to the Target (such as the TestStand directory), then the sequence file is always updated and re-saved. An example is that we have a sequence in the Tools directory that calls a DLL in the FrontEnd directory of the Components\User path. This re-saving causes a checksum change and screws up our verification mechanism. 
    It is unfortunate that I cannot prevent the deployment utility from modifying sequence files - Since we control the entire Test environment, including the location that software gets installed to - Test Station custodians can't go installing the software in a different location, or worse, multiple locations, so we don't have the issue to worry about.
    Because of this 'better' method, we now have to re-evaluate how to control the installed version of the software, or use a different installer, such as CVI, which while it has been working for us, has it 's own issues that we're trying to get away from. I'm glad that I am finding out about this now before I've locked down the sequences so that I can probably move the features in the Tools to the Frontend Callback sequence. 
    It's almost always the case thought that one persons forced enhancement is another's 'feature' or worse 'bug'.
    Thanks for confirming the behavior on the Deployment utility for me.

  • HT201300 i want to buy macbook pro 15 inche ritna display from egypt & i want to know if it was referbushed or not, how can i tell

    As you know there is no apple retail store in egypt
    all stores who sell apple products are regular stores, they claim to be apple authorized retailers but i know for sure they are definitly not
    Because i brought imac from tradeline stores in citystars in egypt a year ago & it was deficted u know techical hardware error from graphics card
    and when i gave them my imac 27 inch back to repair it (a white screen appers suddenly)  they made even worse.
    however i sold very very cheap to some one i know other than those idiots wh call them selves technitians & now i want to buy macbook pro from some one else other tradeline & i want to know if it was referbushed or not by numbers or letters printed on the box.
    so please advise

    Once, Apple refurbs had serial numbers starting with "R" or "RM." That faded away several years ago so I don't think you can tell from the serial number any more. However, the carton is rather plain and says something like "Apple Refurbished Product" on it
    Most of the "mission-critical" Macs at our house are refurbs bought directly from Apple USA. They have all given superb and trouble-free service.
