Mobileme @me account changed to @mac after IOS4 update and backup restore

Updated iphone 3GS to IOS4
noticed today, since i never use it, the mobileme account on
my iphone has the following settings
Nmae Luis
address [email protected] (greyed out)
SMTP smtp.mac.com (greyed out)
password .........
I can edit the name field and password field, but not
the Address or Password. I have never had an @mac email,
I can access my email at mobileme.com with correct [email protected] email.
Only thing I have done is update to IOS4 on wednesday and restore from backup, which I did just before the update. The newest email in the account is dated Monday.
P.S. i signed up for the mobileme calendar beta on Tuesday

Support had no idea, they just had me delete and recreate the account. So, everything back to normal, just no clue how my account went from @me to @mac.

Error message after latest update and backup, can't operate program at all, no customer service. LR 5.5, Windows 8.1

I updated to LR 5.5 and later restarted my computer. I didn't use the program for a few days and then when I did, it wanted to backup the catalog. I agreed and closed the program. The next time I opened it, it asked me for my region, saying it was required. When I answered, I got an error message saying it has encountered an error reading the preview cache and needs to quit. It fails to fix the error and gives the same message over and over. I can't use the program at all. Customer service has apparently been discontinued and I'm really at the end of my rope with this whole company. I don't think I've ever had a mass-release program with so many problems.

open disk utility, make sure that you're back to only 1 partition should be 'macintosh hd' unless you renamed it
do not try to use the disk, instead DL the x64 8.1 pro ISO from this link, and once it is finished, then open bca and choose all 3 options (copy iso, copy windows support and install windows)

On windows XP or linux have a MAC adress Change function allow 00 mac adress and another normal mac adress range.On windows 8.1 all Mac changer program dont work.This 2,6,A,E on second adress are not vaild Mac adress. You simply can not use normal MAC
addresses on windows 8.1.When i connect the usb the Pc windows 8.1 recognizes the adapter but the default driver and the downloaded ralink driver the same problem.On windows xp the current driver works perfectly have (Local Mac Network Adress) funktion
and works with the 802.11b hot spot.I got the internet my PC and laptop too public HotSpots and another wifi HotSpots if wont work correctly i can not use neither the windows 7,8,8.1 or 10. Many users have expressed interest in the problem more forums.
The 3. problem im tested in virtualbox the windows 7 and 8.1 on 8.1 (on the blue wifi platform) not show correctly the signal strengh. On windows 7 show this correctly.The windows 7-8.1 Configure/advanced the advanced options on Ralink 3070 the default (windows
driver) somehow downgraded function is less than for Xp. Configure/advanced the advanced options (needs to be upgraded in the future) because it does not advance but rather regressed.
Today it is very common these wi-fi technology increasingly used (hotels,Public Hots Spots,Internet coffe,) growing free bublic wifi projects. The wifi funktions on windows need debugging and modernize.The quality of Wi-Fi is now the operating system
is now a thing order which is not good then the operating system is unusable.

Hi,
For changing the MAC address for Windows 7 is designed with some limitation, we cannot get over it. Thanks for your understanding.
Under Windows 7, the possible range of spoofed addresses for wireless adapters that can be set is limited. To be used by Windows 7, a spoofed MAC address should have 0 as a least significant bit (unicast) and 1 as a second least significant
bit (locally administered) in the second nibble. Thus possible values for the second nibble are limited to 2, 6, A and E.
In other words
MAC address: “XY-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX” “X” can be anything hexadecimal. The hexadecimal “Y”, written in binary format, is Y: “kmnp”, where “p” is the least significant bit;
p=0 --> unicast;
p=1 --> multicast;
n=0 --> globally assigned MAC;
n=1 --> locally administered;
So, actually MAC can be changed to any combination in which p=0 and n=1;
“Y” can be 2, 6, A or E.
So the possible MAC addresses in Windows 7 for wireless adapters:
X2-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX
X6-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX
XA-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX
XE-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX

Why do I have 2 versions of the program pages on my mac after the update?

Why do I have 2 versions of the program pages on my mac after the update?

Do you have both the old and the new version? If so, you must have purchased Pages via the retail DVD (iWork) - the installer does not update in this case, but installs a brand new version separately giving you the choice of which one you want to use.

Firefox loads, but wont load any web pages. tabs say "untitled". page is blank below. uninstaled and reinstaled no change. problem came after recent update. any help?

ps. IE works as usual

Problem solved from prior post. Firefox had become blocked somehow by McAfee firewall. Set to full access. Now works perfectly.

HT201364 What is the change betwen mac book late 2006 and mid 2007 ?

What is the change betwen mac book late 2006 and mid 2007 that couses the OS X Mavericks not to run on it?

Neither the 2006 or 2007 MacBooks will run Mavericks, nor will the white plastic cased 2008 models. The oldest MacBook that will run Mavericks is the Aluminum case Late 2008 one.
Looking at the specs, I think that is because prior to the aluminum 2008 model, all MacBooks used less powerful Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) graphics processors with (at most) 160 MB of available video memory. AFAIK, neither Intel nor Apple ever released 64 bit drivers for these GMA graphics processors, so when OS X dropped support for booting into 32 bit mode in Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) that meant the newest OS these MacBooks could support was Leopard (OS X 10.7), the last version to support 32 bit mode.
It is also likely that the GMA's, with their limited memory & support for parallel processing, can't effectively support technologies like Grand Central Dispatch that system services in the newer OS versions increasingly rely on to speed up more than graphics rendering.
So, even if one could find a 64 bit driver for the GMA's, the system probably would be too slow at too many things to be practical. (Personally, I have a while 2008 MacBook, & I think the "best fit" OS for it is Snow Leopard. As far as I'm concerned, Lion is basically a beta version of Mountain Lion with too many rough edges & limited user choice to run on mine.)

There was add one and i lost it after the update and i don't remember it's name

there was add one and i lost it after the update and i don't remember it's name
it was add-on to show me the source of any click able content
like pics on twitter or Facebook
also the videos on youtube
and it showed a little icons with small pic shape on it with different colors
and also sometimes with a small lock shape on it
now i need to know what this add -on name or how to get it back

Add-ons are not auto-deleted as far as I know...
It's possible that the extension or userscript simply doesn't work correctly in Firefox 22 due to a change in Firefox. If you look at the add-on pages, often the reviews will mention whether the add-on is broken in a new release.

Hey High Socks,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, iTunes isn't working when you try to launch it. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.

ICal crashing after iOS4 update

Since updating my iPhone 3G to iOS4 last week I have been unable to use iCal. It crashes about 10 seconds after opening. I have tried resetting the sync data and also have tried unselecting calendar syncing in .mac prefs but this has not worked. I have noticed that iCal has also created hundreds of untitled calendars. These appear in the calendar list both in iCal and on mobile me but not on my phone.
Can anyone advise please? Phone is working ok with no problems syncing to mobile me.
thanks

Glad it was not just me ; )
I have now resolved this but it involves a bit of a workaround and the use of another Mac/iCal.
Using iTunes I restored my phone to the back up taken when I upgraded to iOS4 and switched off mobile me syncing on the phone.
I then set up my mobile me on another Mac's iCal and did a data reset replacing mobile me calendar data with the blank calendars in iCal. This got rid of the hundreds of calendars that had synced from the faulty iCal to mobile me.
I then used iTunes to sync the calendar data from the backed up phone to the other Mac's iCal (not using mobile me just iTunes with mobile me syncing turned off).
After checking online with mobile me that all was ok, I did a data reset from the other Mac's iCal to mobile me.
I then switched calendar syncing on again on my phone and created a test event which sync'd ok.
I then went back to my laptop with the faulty iCal and located the folder where iCal stored the blank calendars (Mac HD/Users/Your name/Library/Application Support/ICal/Sources. I deleted all the folders in the folder.
I then used system prefs/.Mac to reset the data on the laptop with data from mobile me.
This worked and I could then open iCal and since then all has been ok.
Not sure why all is working now, maybe after an upgrade the iPhone needs a full restore to get it working properly? Anyway, I hope this helps you sort this out.

Accounts on server disabled after PC updates

Got a problem where after the PC's on a network do a windows update they cannot log back onto network as the user accounts are all disabled on the server. PC's runnning XP,Windows 7, and Windows8. Server 2012. Can anyone help please?

Hi rbooysen,
I agree with Tim. It seems to be not a normal result. Would you please let us know whether you have referred
to Tim’s suggestion and check
relevant settings? Any update, please feel free to let us know.
In addition, would you please let us confirm whether has changed any setting after updating? Meanwhile, please
let us know the complete message that you may get, when can’t log back on the network. Please open Event Viewer and check if you can find some related messages.
By the way, can you remember which update has been installed, then this issue occurred?
Hope this helps.

Why are some of my old files on my mac after I do a complete restore?

Whenever I get a new Mac or I restore my old one some of my old files such as music photos and movies are on my new one. I think it is auto saving some of my email attachments. It seems a lot of the images where ones that I took or veiwed with my Ipod/iPhone. Is there anyway to stop this?

If i deauthorize this PC can i reauthorize it after i do a complete restore thus saving that precious last authorization in case of an emergency?
Yes.
Note that if and when you reach the maximum of five authorizations, you can (once per year) deauthorize all the systems. There will be at that time a button in your iTunes Store account information for performing that deauthorization. You could then authorize those systems you're using.
if i create a new i tunes account can i play the songs currently on my ipod and those purchased with the old account?
If you mean a new iTunes Store account, that account authorization would only be valid for content purchase through that account. It will have no effect on authorizations from your current iTunes Store account.
Regards.

Push notification not working in Mail on 3GS after iOS4 update

My auto notification of email has stopped working on my 3GS after I updated to iOS4. I have a MobileMe subscription and it works fine on my G5, MacBook Pro and iPad.
Not sure why it is refusing to work on my iPhone 3GS. Is anybody else experiencing this issue?

1. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
2. Bite the bullet - Restore as new without using a backup (which may have corrupted data/settings.
