PLEASE HELP!! Can't remember any of my passwords.... and I'm so ****** I can't see straight. Forgot the login/administrator and master password as well.... duh. It is my first computer ever tho and I've only had it for two months so, I'm still learning.
I got in an argument with my ****** girlfriend and I was absolutely wasted. Changed all my passwords during the argument so she wouldn't sabotage my laptop but was way too wasted to remember them. 10,000 tries later, I'm here. Please help??!! Thanks... oh and btw, can I link my stupid prepaid verizon cellphone to the laptop so I can download the pictures on it?? Thanks whoever replies.... JH

You can reset the master password and go from there:
For Snow Leopard and earlier:

For Lion and later:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4101
On your phone, if you connect it to the computer with a USB cable, it should show up as an external drive in Finder. From there you should be able to navigate to your pictures folder and copy your stuff.

I'm having trouble with my macbook pro, I have only had it for three months, when I plugged a camera sd card into the sd slot it isn't appearing anywhere on the computer and i can not access my photographs. can somebody please help me?

Clifton I must disagree with you on the above statement. It is my opinion and experience that you should never connect the camera directly to any computer, Mac Windows Whatever.
It is always best to Remove the memory card from the camera and put it in a card reader, whether an external reader or one built into the computer, to copy images from the card.
Hi Shootist. I would be interested in hearing some reasoning on this. I almost always use a USB cable to connect my camera to the MBP for transferring pictures, and have moved about 30,000 this way over the last 6 years since my photography went digital. Recently, on the rare occassions when I have only a few to transfer and I was too lazy to go for the cable, I have used the card reader; about half those times I have difficulty getting the MBP to recognise the card. I find I have to press the card very hard into the slot for it to be recognised.
My rationale is quite possibly wrong, but I feel that the USB connectors are more robust and hard-wearing than the flimsy connectors on an SD card. Also, I haven't measured it, but I think the data transfer is faster with the cable. (I just came across this test, which reports noticeably faster transfer for cable than built-in card reader, but the computer was a PC)
Chiara, sorry for hijacking your thread. -
FPC wont let me render! I'm a video editor and have over 70 gb worth of videos on the imac which all need to be kept for various clients/backup/original versons but now beloved imac is full, only had it for 5 months! Will Ineed external hard drive every 5 months?? This can't be I've already resorted to getting rid of unsed applications such as garage band, iTunes,address book ect. I've trashed everything I could. what next ???
My video files are massive, converting them to a different format doesn't reduce the size of them it just turns them into mp4 or apple pro res ect
This iMac is for work only so there's no pictures, no music, no conacts, no messenger, no games, nonothing but videos!!Have a look at this: http://grandperspectiv.sourceforge.net/
It will show you exactly what is taking up all of your space.
You also may want to consider some kind of external storage just for your video projects. -
I have the ipad 4g and it is displaying the message "resource limit reached" only had it for two days

I've tried many times to get rid of my old iTunes account. I have made a new Apple ID and I do remember the password. My 2 main problems are, i can't update ANY of my apps (and I have 53 to update now), and I can't get rid of my old old email that I forgot the password to. Every time I try to reset the account and start a new iTunes account, it will ask me for my new email. I've tried multiple times to change it, bbut every time i do, it asks me to put a password when for my old email that I forgot the password to reset the account.
Once you purchase or download an app it will always be associated with the Apple ID used to download it. When that app requires and update you must use the Apple ID and password used to download it in the first place. The only way around this is to delete the apps the require the old Apple ID and download or purchase them again with the new Apple ID.

How do I get my ipad charger working when i've only had it for 3 months
I plugged my ipad in when it said low battery. Then it got very hot and said unable to support this device. Then i thought it might be the outlet, so i plugged it in somewhere else. When I left in alone for about, 5 minutes and came back to check on it, The ipad was dead plugged in. I got this ipad in November and the charger came with it, the ipad was brand new and not used! So i have no idea why it is not working! and if anyone has any idea please help. Also I am unable to go to a store to see what the problem is, because of the current snow storm!
Thank you,
LOLAJEAN7Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

In the meantime....
Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.htmlhttp://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

I've had the iPhone 5 for about 3 or 4 months and today I noticed that no sound comes out of the left side of the speaker when I'm listening to music or watching something on Netflix
Is it a problem with the actual phone or is it some sort of glitch?If you are referring to the "speakers" along the bottom, there is only one speaker and one microphone.

i just dropped it on the sidewalk this afternoon and i thought i dropped it on the case but it hit just right so it completely cracked. will i be able to send it to apple and get a new ipod free or replace the screen? i only had the ipod for 8 months.
Apple will replace your iPod with an identical refurbished one for a fee; $99 (8gb) $149 (32gb) or $199 (64gb). The warranty does not cover accidental damage.

Hi,
I can't figure out why my computer completely slows down as soon as I open more than one program, or if I have multiple windows in safari open. I keep getting the wheel and it takes forever for things to load. Even if I'm typing an email or in Word, if I write more than a sentence, it freezes for a few moments. I've cleared the Safari cache and I've run the activity monitor. Nothing is taking more than 15% of the CPU. What should I do next?
I would include a printscreen of the activity monitor, but I don't know how to do that on a mac.
I think I'm on the mac OS X version 10.6.8, but not a 100% sure. I bought my mac in Dec 2010 and I never upgraded to the Lion OS.
thx.How full is the hard drive?
To get more information about your computer, go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..." Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present). -
My phone just stoped working, what do i do??
Did you managed to solve this issue? Performing a hard reset usually helps.
Press and hold both the Lock button and Home button simultaneously until screen fades.
Continue to hold until the Apple logo lights up. -
Like I've said, I've done everything to get it to work again and the screen just shows white lines, or it starts up and the screen fades away to black. It's not water damage, or anything like that. I haven't dropped it. It's since the last update, last night. (for me I did it late)
Will apple replace this for me or is it not covered?The iPhone includes a one year warranty.
If this is determined to be a hardware failure that is covered under the warranty, it will be exchanged under warranty. -
*urgent* Dropped iPhone in water, totally broken only had it for 2 months
Ok so I jumped in the pool with my iphone 3G S and now it has died. I want to know if apple will replace it for a fee or for free. Anything will help!
From:
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq/
"Out-of-Warranty Service
If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace your iPhone with a new or refurbished iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.
iPhone 3GS Out-of-Warranty Service
16GB & 32GB $199
iPhone 3G Out-of-Warranty Service
8GB, 16GB $199
Original iPhone Out-of-Warranty Service
4GB, 8GB & 16GB $199
*All fees are in US dollars and exclude applicable taxes
For example, an iPhone that has failed due to damage or liquid damage is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. However, certain damage is ineligible for OOW service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications.
Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPhone is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details." -
My 7th generation 160 g iPod classic keeps freezing, I've only had it for 3 months?
This iPod was ordered brand new 3 months ago, however it keeps freezing and locking up when I try to scroll through menus or switch songs. I would really like this problem to be fixed. How do I go about this?
Try the Hard Reset
After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.
Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs

Do the iPod Disk Diagnostic as posted by tt2,
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17776595#17776595
If you have high numbers on the first 5 items, better bring back to Apple Store for a replacement.
Good Luck! -
