Old MCX Settings showing up!

I have a 10.6.8 pure environment - 1 server, 20 macs in a standalone lan.
In the past, I set curfews, and they worked. At some point, I turned them off, and for the most part, that worked (no more curfews). But sometimes - very randomly it seems, the curfews show up on the logon screen (the red "do not enter" sign next to the user in the list).
I have since turned on then off again the setting, both at the user level, and the computer group level - and it still sometimes happens.
I tried logging on as an admin user with "option" key - per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3540, I do get the picker, but NEVER see the option to "refresh preferences". As an admin - how can this NOT show up??
Any other suggestions?

I too have had a couple of rare glitches in receiving old emails (a couple of those I received 500-600 old emails from six months previous).
There's nothing you can do... it's a glitch. Just delete them.
Hopefully you know the deletion shortcuts (scroll to a date header and press > Menu > Delete Prior) to make that process easier.

Trouble with iCal MCX settings

I'm trying to set up the MCX settings for our users so that when they log in, their account is already imported into iCal and they can get going right away.
I can't seem to get the right settings however. Here's what I'm doing:
1. Go into Workgroup Manager, open the preference page.
2. Edit the iCal-10.6 preference, adding a new key named "imported accounts" and filling in all the relevant information.
After doing that, when I log in as a user, no calendars show up at all, even the ones that are local to the machine, and there are no accounts listed in the preferences. If I add an account manually, the calendars don't show up until I manually delete the com.apple.ical preference file from the user's library.
I thought at first that I might have the wrong Principal URI, so I checked and it seems to be fine. I then checked the Calendar URI and this is what I saw, for example, when I went to http://myserver/calendars/users/jeffmurchison:
Which doesn't seem right to me.
I'm not sure what other relevant information I can post right now, but if anyone could help me troubleshoot this, that'd be great.

My printer worked okay with my previous ibook. But now that I switched to the MacBook Pro I can't get the settings to show up for my printer when I am going to print.
Kelly,
Did you migrated your preferences from your iBook to the new MacBook Pro? If yes, then those old preferences may not be compatible. Two suggestions:
a) Create another user account and see if the print options for specific paper are available while logged in as that user. If yes, then the old preferences theory may be true. So, then log out of that account and try…
b) Log in to your original account. Go to HD/Users/your name/Library/Preferences and move all the .plist files that begin with com.apple.print.* out to the Desktop. Launch an app to see if the print options for specific papers appear. If yes, then continue to select your options and new user print preferences will be created. You can then trash the old preferences that you had moved to the Desktop.
Hope this helps.

I not so recently changed my email adress I associated with my Apple ID and my iCloud ID. My old email still shows up for iCloud, and won't let me change it to my new email. When I try to delete it and replace it with the proper email, it wants my passwor

I not so recently changed my email adress I associated with my Apple ID and my iCloud ID. My old email still shows up for iCloud, and won't let me change it to my new email. When I try to delete it and replace it with the proper email, it wants my password, which it won't accept because it's an invalid username.

I had this same issue and got it resolved very simply when I contacted Apple SUpport

Why is my old Apple ID showing for iCloud account after IOS7 update?

So, about a year ago I switched from a local internet service provider to Google Fiber. As such, my email account from the internet service provider was shut down, and I moved my email to a Gmail account.
I used to have my Apple ID set to [email protected], but just before switching to Google Fiber, I updated the Apple ID to [email protected]. I have been using the @gmail.com Apple ID for about a year now to purchase items in iTunes and backup my iPhone and iPad to iCloud. My previous purchases under @isp.com in iTunes were still there and available for download.
Last night, I updated to iOS 7 on my iPhone. I was never prompted to "restore" from a backup during the upgrade. When I finally got into the phone, all of my apps, photos, music, etc. were there. I went to run a backup on iCloud from the iPhone, and found the iCloud settings show my Apple ID to be @isp.com, instead of @gmail.com. With the new security features in iOS 7, I can't change the Apple ID (the field is grayed out), restore the device, or delete the exiting iCloud backup, without knowing the password for the old Apple ID of @isp.com, which I haven't used in over a year.
I have read several other posts about changing the Apple ID back to the old email address, then verifying that email in order to change the password to something new, but in my case, I don't have that option since the old email address has been shut down. I called Apple Support and they were baffled by this. After a half hour of troubleshooting, their only suggestion was to do a full "Erase All Content & Settings", and then set up the iPhone as a "new device", before trying to restore from the @gmail.com Apple ID. The problem here is that the option to "Erase" also feeds into the new security features for iOS 7, and requires the old password from when I was using my Apple ID as @isp.com.
I'm all about the increased security, but it seems this has essentially locked out a ton of users from getting to their own stuff, simply because at some point they changed their Apple ID.
It seems a number of people are having this problem, so if anyone finds a solution to this, please let me know.

Thanks mellaguy - makes me feel a little better knowing there are others out there experiencing the same problem!
A short time ago, iCloud mysteriously let me sign in using my current password from the @gmail.com Apple ID, which I had tried probably 30 times before. It's almost like iOS7 on my device suddenly connected with the iCloud servers, and obtained the most "current" information?
Apple Support told me earlier today that when I changed the Apple ID login from @isp.com to @gmail.com last year, I was simply updating an existing "account", and did not create a separate account. This was why all of my previous purchases under @isp.com were still available for download, etc. They said that despite the fact my old @isp.com Apple ID was showing after the iOS7 update, I should be able to enter the current password for the @gmail.com Apple ID. When that didn't work, I went to iCloud on my Mac and changed my password. Even after changing the password to something new, it still didn't work on my iPhone running on iOS7. Mysteriously, after 30+ attempts to login using the new password, it suddenly accepted it. It had literally denied my password repeatedly within 5 minutes before it accepted it, which is why I thought maybe it suddenly connected to the server and recognized the current login credentials for my account.
I'm not sure why it suddenly decided to let me sign in, but I've finally managed to disable the "Find my iPhone" feature long enough to change the iCloud Apple ID to @gmail.com and start a backup (still in progress).
The one thing I can't tell from the other threads I'm reading is if this is a widespread iOS7 issue on all devices, or if it is isolated to a particular device (or model). I'm hesitant to upgrade my iPad2 until I see more on this issue.

Old address still showing in contact after I edit with new address. However, it shows correct address when in edit mode. Is this a new glitch on the iPhone iOS 7?

1) Is it a video clip? Something you recognize? To be clear, it's displaying at a point in your exported movie but doesn't appear at all in the sequence?
2) What are your sequence settings? Right-click your sequence and choose "Item Properties" to verify.

the appleID is the connection between the device and icloud and what apps and media itunes store see that you own
if you change appleID you start from scratch

After some initial issues (which I believe were really part of the "learning curve" for a new device), I'm really loving my LG Ally. However, I have one issue that I just can't seem to figure out how to fix: My home email, which is a POP3 email, keeps sending me "new" emails, that are actually old emails that I have deleted from both my phone and my home email. In some cases, it is even email that I have completely dumped from my "deleted items" on my home email. Why does it do that? I have the settings on my home email account set to NOT save email on the server, so why doesn't it seem to be working? I don't have any problems with my work email which is on an exchange server. Any ideas?
Hi. I am sorry you are having issues with your email and I can certainly look into it for you. When did this start happening? Dif you download any applications before this started happening? Try to delete that particular email account and set it up again to see if that works.
Waiting on your reply!
Thanks!

Reset my apple ID but old one still shows on screen. How can I update my apps now?

I reset my apple ID and password but old one still shows on screen. How can I update my apps now?

Hi jbrunner,
Did you create a new Apple ID, or simply update the old one?
If you simply updated the old one, then you need to go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores, click on the Apple ID, and sign out. Then sign back in with your new ID. Also, you want to go to Settings>iCloud and scroll down to the bottom and delete the iCloud account and sign back onto it with your new Apple ID as well.
If you created a new Apple ID, then there are other considerations. Post back if that is the case.

Trying to reload adobe 10 and 7 on new computer. old one crashed. shows i need a serial number

purchased adobe 10 and 7 -- 2012 and 2013 -- trying to install on new computer. old one crashed. shows i need serial number. where do i get it. only have 6 discs.

Adobe is a company... what does "Adobe 10" and "Adobe 7" mean?
If you bought those on disc I don't think they are part of the Cloud
The serial number is usually on a sticker on the disc holder inside the box
If you lost your serial number check https://www.adobe.com/account.html for your registered products
When you figure out what programs you have, you might check the specific forums

Moving from PC to MAc, but want to keep all the old iTunes settings! Help!

I did this just fine, from PC to MacBook. But one problem I'm having is that my new iTunes library on the Mac is completely devoid of my old iTunes settings on my pc - my song ratings, my playlists, all the songs I've had checked and unchecked, date added, etc. Is there any way to migrate (I went from pc to mac, all the music files came over no problem) but to keep your iTunes information so you don't have to sort through all the songs all over again!!! Help!
Thanks,
Marty

Hi Martyputz,
This happened, because iTunes on a Windows doesn't really work like iTunes for Mac. Read this [article|http://lifehacker.com/software/itunes/geek-to-live--how-to-move-an-itu nes-library-from-a-pc-to-mac-and-back-242468.php] and follow carefully the instructions...
Hope this helps!

Hi Craig
Unfortunately, in your case, there isn't really a way to separate them as far as I can think.
You could try restoring from a backup, and choosing an older backup perhaps
Cheers
