Hi, incorrect previously used e-mail address suggestions keep appearing in my Yahoo! ID box when signing in & I can't get rid of them.

Hi, incorrect previously used e-mail address suggestions keep appearing in my Yahoo! ID box when signing in. I can't get rid of them. I've tried clearing the cache and cookies. I couldn't find an option to clear private data, don't know if that would work. My Yahoo password is not saved and my password is not the problem. I just want to know how to delete previously used emails from logging in suggestions so they stop appearing, hope you can help, cheeeers - Dave.

Thanks very much for the response Sandee. I tried your suggestion of the Annotation option and this worked! - wonderful.. altho this test now works for me I'd still love to get it working from InDesign.
What I'm trying to achieve... my client had 5 powerpoint presentations that need updating with new branding (totally about 160 pages - with about 20 basic animations - i.e. flashing lights on products etc).
I sold him on the idea of using InDesign/PDF rather than powerpoint - but am needing to find an easy solution for the animations. So I've been working on this test file. Have self taught myself on a basic flash animation (from Lynda.com)... and tried importing both SWF and QT .MOV into InDesign and then exporting to PDF and when it loaded up in Acrobat it would always "unexpectedly quit" upon opening... even after trying different versions of PDF compatibility and restarting etc.
Is there something obvious that I'm not doing right?
Also if I get it to work, does that mean that my client and all their staff around the world will need to be Acrobat Reader 9?
Thanks again for your time and help

My ex's Apple ID plus password request keeps coming up on my iPhone when trying to download Apps, how do I get rid of it please?

My ex's Apple ID plus password request keeps coming up on my iPhone when trying to download Apps, how do I get rid of it please?

Tks heaps for that, had a look at Store and ITunes sections, not overly helpful unless I am missing something.
My issue is that on my computer she would update her iPhone with Software updates via iTunes.
I have gone and deleted her backups that were still sitting on there.
If I want to update my Apps on my iPhone when due her Apple ID and password request will come up as an option to use that account if I knew the password and it's synced from my Computer even though she has been gone 7 months now. Is it a syncing issue or is her Apple ID stored in my iTunes backups somehow and keeps coming back? Do I need to de-authorize her account from my Computer?

Password request keeps popping up in itunes

I know this question has been asked before, but how do you stop the password request for your Apple ID from popping up continuously in iTunes, even after you entered it?

Chances are that you have slightly different 'Artist' labels for those songs.
This could be as simple as 'The Rolling Stones' vs. 'Rolling Stones' or more difficult to spot due to leading or trailing blanks, such as:
' Rolling Stones' or 'Rolling Stones '.
You'll have to figure out your own specific situation.

Admin password request dialog appears when sending e-mails in Mail

Hello,
I have just upgraded MacOSX to Mavericks (10.9.1) [and Apple Server 3.0.]
Ever since the upgrade, whenever I try to send an e-mail with Mail, MacOSX displays a dialog with fhe following message: "OSX would like to make modifications. Please input your name and an administrator password to grant authorization (OS X would like to use the System keyring)" [roughly translated to English from a Romance Language].
Obviously, I have some file rights issue. But how can I fix it?
Any help would be much appreciated.

I think it is a compatibility issue with your anti virus.
Try this
*Restart the operating system in '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_mode safe mode with Networking]'''. This loads only the very basics needed to start your computer while enabling an Internet connection.

E-Mail Password Request

Both my wife and I have separate accounts on the same computer. She has a password for her e-mail and I have one for mine and both are in our respective e-mail preference. But, in her case, sometimes, whenever she opens her e-mail there is a request for her password. The box asking whether the password should be saved is always checked but the same request come up infrequently. In my case, the request hardly comes up, if at all. Is there an explanation why this should happen at all even though her password is in her mail preference and how to stop it and why the same message hardly comes up in my case?

Hi again:

Thank you, Barry. Yes, I have passwords entered for both the root Verizon address and for the alias address. However ... I note that the two passwords are of different lengths. I am no longer 100% certain exactly what they are! I would like to be able to read my own passwords there but I see no way of doing so in Mail>preferences>accounts>account information. Is there a way to change the ***** to actual characters?
Also ... in the outgoing mail server drop down box... Yes, both drop downs have passwords filled in (again, they are different lengths and I'd like to be able to see exactly what they are...I presume the same as the others). BUT there is one difference between the Verizon root address (SSL is not checked) and the alias (SSL is checked).
A friend helped me set this up so I'm not sure why it is that way.
To change the ………, just type in whatever password you wish. I do not know of a way to "read" the periods.
I do not use SSL, so I do not know how that behaves.

.Mail - password request and failure

Starting yesterday .Mail began asking for my password when logging on to .Mac. Now the app will not check or send mail to my .Mac account. It works fine with gMail. The .Mac account is grayed out and a small symbol next to the account appears, looking like a lightning bolt.
Mail can be used by accessing .Mac mail with Safari.

I experienced the same problem yesterday and it seems Apple had some major issues with all servers yesterday for a good while - including servers for the Apple Store and these Discussions.
It cleared up for me late yesterday afternoon.
Have you tried taking the account online or does quitting and re-launching the Mail application make any difference today?

ITunes Password Window Keeps Appearing...Why?

For the past week I have constantly been bombarded with the iTunes Password window. Sometimes it happens when I first turn on my phone...sometimes it happens when I change to a different App... and it frequently is on the screen when I go to press End Call at the end of a conversation. The iTunes Password window is on the screen instead of the call that I am on. I have rebooted the phone a few times, and I have synced my phone recently after the problem appeared. I have not yet done the 3.1.3 software update. How can I keep this from happening. Thanks for the help.

Try this:
When you sync your iPhone or iPod touch with your computer, the account last used to access the iTunes Store from the computer is synced to the mobile device for use in the iTunes Store from the device as well. This same account is used for the App Store as well. This account will be used on the device for both stores until you sign in from your computer to the iTunes Store with a different account, and then resync your mobile device with the computer.
When you sync your iPhone or iPod touch, the iTunes application on the computer will share its current iTunes Store account ID with the device you are syncing. This account ID will be used to make purchases from the iTunes Store and App Store on the mobile device.
It is not possible to change the account in use on the device itself or to sync multiple accounts to your mobile device. To change the account you are using on your mobile device, go to your computer and sign in to the iTunes Store with the account you want to use on your mobile device, then sync your iPhone or iPod touch with your computer again. This will transfer the new account information to the mobile device. To sign in or out of an account in iTunes choose Store > Sign In (or Sign Out).
So, try syncing your phone using the account you used in itunes & see if this fixes the issue.

RSS Feeds in Mail 3.0 Keep Appearing as Unread even When Read and Deleted

Hi there,
I've just upgraded to Leopard (10.5, 9A581) and was pleased to find that Mail 3.0 (912.1/912) now has RSS feed capability.
However, I've noticed a problem and it's very annoying. Every time I quit Mail and re-open it, it displays ALL my RSS feeds as new as unread, even though I had previously read them and actually deleted them.
I assume this is a bug but hope it can be fixed soon as it's making RSS reading in Mail unusable. I have 198 RSS feeds and my Mail icon is currently showing 651 unread messages as there are 651 RSS items that I have previously read and deleted within Mail 3.0. In fact, I've deleted them all three times today alone but I'm not doing it again as I'm wasting my time, as every time I quit Mail and open it again, they all re-appear.
Thanks for any advice on this.

I'm getting the same behavior in 10.5.1 with Mail 3.1.

Backup restoration password required keeps appearing but server error 404 will not let me set up password. This is on my screen every day!!

Every time I open my computer I have this notice: Backup restoration password required. In order to perform backup or restoration for this account, you need to enter the account password.
Not knowing my password, I click on "Forgot Password" and that's when I get the message "Server Error-404 - file or directory not found." This is driving me crazy and I hope you can help me.

Remove keychain password requests

i must have turned on the keychain function on my iMac by mistake
i cannot now log onto iCloud in system preferences on my machine without it requesting a keychain password of which i know not what it is.
in addition, the machine keeps asking for the password to my 'login' keychain. again i dont know what this is.
these password prompts keep appearing
they are driving me mad
how can i get rid of this keychain function completely and go back to how it was before?

The last four deal exclusively with your .Mac account. There was a recent thread about mail passwords and a solution. However, since i don't use it, I don't remember the details. Search these forums or review the threads the past two or three days. A keychain password is required for all administrative-level tasks, such as logging in, logging into secured websites, sending/receiving mail, installing software, etc. Get used to it. BTW, launch Keychain Access, lock/unlock or unlock/lock the login.keychain, and then use Keychain First Aid to verify/repair your login.keychain. Log out and back in. That should do it.

Recently changed my password for mail, can still read my mail, but the drop down keeps appearing, asking for my password and saying it's incorrect. Totally confused.

I Recently changed the password for mail, on iMac. I can still read my mail, but the drop down keeps appearing, asking for my password, then telling me it's incorrect. Totally confused.

If your password is accepted, and Mail connects to the account, but you're prompted for the password repeatedly, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Note: these steps don't apply if the server rejects the password. That's a different problem.
Step 1
When prompted for the password, check the box marked Remember this password in my keychain.
Step 2
Check that the keychain is working.
Step 3
Check that the default keychain is unlocked.

Can someone tell me why the Yahoo mail server (IMAP) keeps requesting my Yahoo email password and says it's incorrect? Yahoo is my Mac mail server. This has happened before, but this time I can't get it to 'Cancel'

Can someone tell me why the Yahoo mail server (IMAP) keeps requesting my Yahoo email password and says it's incorrect? Yahoo is my Mac mail server. This has happened before, but this time I can't get it to 'Cancel'.

You will have to contact Yahoo Support.

I keep being asked for my pop.mail password for my user address. Can you help please.

I keep being asked for my pop.mail password and I do not know what is meant. Can you help. I cannot receive or send messages on thunderbird. You say you have sent a reset message to me but it has not come through. I am searching messages on my ipad. I am on the verge of abandoning Thunderbird and continuing to use my ipad and yahoo account. Thank you for your help in advance.

Thunderbird has nothing to do with administering your email password and is not going to send you anything. I am not even sure where you requested that something be sent to you unless it is for the password to this forum which has nothing to do with your email.
Your email provider would have a link to reset your password on their email help page.
I would go to your providers web mail page and see if your username and password work thee. if they do then you might have incorrect server settings causing the password error.
