My Macbook was hacked by somebody right after activating downloaded VLC player.
I couldn’t control my machine. Every thing was messed up! Finally after reboot I realized that even my administration password was changed. Stupid hint I was able to reed: What located in box above low case ? I used my friends computer and founded hot to fix my problem using Unix commands to reboot in a single user mode. I founded a lot of different solutions which had prity the same beginnings but very complicated continuation, which, I understood will force me to cach during restoration anuther crap – time bomb in my mac! Finaly I did restor. somehow. But still feel somebodyies presents. Safary messed up – I will send you a log Itunes – messed up. Speaker in a top menu – grayed, and I can’t control my volume. But the most triky thing – bouth my Apple keybords – internal and mostly bluetouth external also working and typing wired! I am sorry for my spelling, because I cant check spell for Mac’s Word (in Microsoft it was F7) I have also several attacks from my neighbors by community I know their names, because they are somethere very close to me – I can see them throuth FI-FI connection. They often kick-me out from my place and started to use my resaurces. And also Mackeeper make me a hard time!
In Microsoft times u just reinstalled computer – clean installetion from corporate licensed disk. But now I am a beginner in MAC – I love it! But a lot of new and triky – at this way
Fore example – my goal – to do fool Macbook backup at external USB drive using boot srartup option and make my life yaser in case of crash. But now, I don’t know if I can trust recommended program Carbon copy cloner – Ms. Bombich?
I am very sorry for my spelling, because I feel somebodies presents, who playin with me.
Final question Do I need some antivirus Mac compatable which is update paches, service packs? How to map defolt documents folder not to a local, but to external USB?
Esquse me for a lot of questions, but I am beginner in MAC, and I LOVE it!
PS. Good news. Looks like Safari came back! Somebody, probably allredy helping!
But my interface qute different from original – so something still wrong!

On the most upper left of the Title Bar (the part where the x box is on the right side) where the Firefox icon should be (on the upper left corner) I have a printer icon instead. Why did that happen and how do I change it? Thanks for any help.

HT4859 My yahoo account was hacked. I lost all my contacts and my folders. Is there a way to get them back through icloud since I back all that up there?

How do I go back to the date my email account was hacked and retrieve my information?

Where is your basic address book? On Yahoo? Or outlook? Check those two. If are in Yahoo try to export from there and import to outlook. Then close contact syncing on emails account in your iPhone and sync through iTunes. Omes you have your contacts in iPhone open Contacts in iCloud settings (iPhone) and look if its syncs. If yes uncheck Contacts syncing in iTunes (under info tab) and keep syncing through iCloud.

I have had an email saying that my Apple ID password has been reset. This was not by me. Does this mean that someone has accessed my account?

I have received an email saying that my Apple ID has been reset. This wasn't by me!! Does this mean that someone has accessed my account. Tried phoning Apple but they keep sending me emails saying that they have tried but I haven't answered. My number is correct.

Are you sure they say the password has been changed or that *if* you want to change it, then go to a web site and do it there. If the latter, just ignore the email. If the former (and I'm assuming the email is regarding a changed password, but it could mean the security questions have been changed), then using a computer's browser, try logging into icloud.com. If you can do that using the old password, then it's not clear what the email means.

You can re download past purchases after you restore the iPod.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

So I rebooted my iMac to reset the administrator password and now all of my data is gone. How do I get everything back on my computer?

So I forgot my administrator password and I rebooted my computer to reset it and now everything is gone. How do I get all of my data back? Thanks!

Exactly how did you "reboot to reset"?
Rebooting simply means shutting down the machine and turning it back on. That does not erase any data.

Every time Firefox opened

Hello.
You should simply have to access the game's site... This is not a Firefox support question, though. If you need support for Adobe Flash Player, you need to contact Adobe.

I think my mac was hacked into last night using my Terminal application

Not sure - but I think my mac was hacked into last night when I downloaded the wrong version of handbrake application. I noticed on my screen that my Terminal Application opened and has some "darwin" code in it with my name and a $dollar sign after it. Should I be worried?

If that is your only symptom, I wouldn't be worried.

Windows Server 2000 Advanced - Administrator Password Reset/Recovery

I took over tech job for church that has Windows 2000 advanced server environment that has mirrored hard drives...Previous tech or person that installed server does not want to play nice with the administrator password and changes have to be made...I
do have an account without administrator privileges but that does not help...so I attempted to reset or blank the administrator with a password reset disk and was not successful...when the partition mounts (while using reset disk) it shows that the
password has been blanked (*BLANK*) but it still does not work...I've also tried putting the hard drives in a regular desktop, used the password reset disk and administrator password showed to be blanked, so I blanked it again for
safe measure, replaced the drives in server and was still not successful...please advise

First of all thanks for your response Amy...Yes it is the domain controller and only server for 7 users and 6 computers...and yes you were right about the DSRM password getting blanked...was able to log into DSRM with blank administrator password but
that did me no good as I was still not able to make changes to the domain because (you may already know) Active Directory is not available in DSRM (it says to logon with domain administration rights)...my goal is to obtain domain
administrator access in order to make changes: add/remove users and computer account (which is the password the previous tech will not provide)...since this is such a small domain do I need restore Active Directory to reset or get domain administrator
access? Authoritative Restore? Which method, as a system state backup has never been done?...please advise

Airport Failing to require Administrator Password when Turning on/off?

I was using Lion a ways back but became nervous about its security when I discovered it was failing to require Administrator Password for this simple setting.
See 'System Settings-->Network-->Airport-->Advanded.' On the Airport tab, towards the bottom there is a section that states "Require Administrator Password to:" with a checkbox at the bottom for "Turn Airport on or off."
This setting fails to do anything.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is it still a problem?
I took my MBP into the Apple Store in Georgetown, Washington DC and a few guys at the store were able to verify this problem both on my MBP and on one store model.... I would like to try Lion again but I'm wondering if it is still a problem?

Crazy isn't it!?
An 8MHz Atari can display many motion Screen Savers with almost no CPU!?
It's a bit like calling today's Monitors Wide Screens as a selling point, when they're actually Short Screens! I haven't found a single web page that didn't need more Vertical!?
I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
After installing, Reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
The 5 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
After a bit, it generally speeds everything up.
