Problems with logging in, passwords and keychains

Hi everyone.
I've had my iMac since November 2011 and have never really had any problems. But in the last couple of days I've been having some serious issues with passwrods and keychains. I'm not very techy, so I'll just go through step by step...
Normally when I switch on my computer it comes up to the User accounts screen. I click on my account, type my password in and it logs me in. For some reason now (it's literally just changed over night) when I switch on my computer, it diverts from typing in a password and logs in straight away. Weird, but no big issue.
But now my Mail keeps asking me to type in my keychain password for my updates. I've only had 1 password the entire time I've used my iMac and it doesn't accept it at all now. Starting to get annoying now.
And finally, and the most worrying for me, is I generally put my iMac to sleep over night rather than switch it off completely. But when I try to log back in now, it won't accept my password at all, locking me out of the system. Sometimes it goes to a black screen as if it's about to log my back, but it doesn't. So to get by this I have to unplug my iMac from the socket and switch it back on again just so I can get back in. This worries me as I do a lot of digital art work and I don't want any files being corrupted or damaged.
I've tried runnning the disk reparirs through Utilities, but I'm not sure how to tackle this.
Has this happened to anyone else? And do you know a solution?
Thanks,
Dave

OK, I've managed to top up now. No idea why it didn't work the first time. I've also tried to port my number again and it said that it was successful, but it said that last time too. Another question: apparently I've been given a "pack", but I don't think that is good for me because I won't actually be using the number, so I don't want to be paying every week. The website says "If you don't want a pack any more, you can simply remove it." But I can't see any option for doing this. Where should I be looking? Thanks

Graphics Problems with Log in screen and iPhoto

I have been having some problems with my brand new MacBook Pro. The graphic card seems to be going broken sometimes and it seems to be happening more often.
MacBook Pro 1
First I bought a new mac to replace my old one, i restored it from a Time Machine back up. When my MacBook Pro went to sleep the screen turns black and you click and the screen blocks up and more of the screen unblocks as you move the mouse, I never experience this problem with my old MBP. So I took it back to the shop where they gave me a brand new one, they said it was clearly a graphics problem.
MacBook Pro 2
I installed the time machine back up straight away and I experience the same problem again and a few days later a iPhoto problem happens again lots of times. Examples of what happens are in the video pasted below.

Does Anyone Know The Problem?

MacBook Pro 2 is the replacement they gave me

HT1766 Problem with Apple ID-password and Hotmail-password; always incorrect? what to do, who to call?

I seem to either "forget" my passwords or they is someone or something hacking my account in my iphone and changing my password on my Icould and Hotmail.
Its super annoying... I wouldl ike to call someone so they can tell me what to do or what to change.
Anyone has encountered the same problem??

Create a more secure password using special characters like @% in your passwords for one. Second after creating your passwords right them down and store them in a safe place. Also when you are signing in make sure your spelling the username correctly and also add the capitals for passwords as they are case sensative.

Problems with logging into Muse and so to CCloud

Alternatively I cannot log into my Creative Cloud Account on my desktop or my laptop. Muse seems to be the problem. This already happened twice. I dumped Muse into the trash and emptied it. This was the solution the help desk gave me a few weeks ago. I had then to remove a .db file, but I forgot which one. Anyway, when trying to download another version of Muse I get the the message that I already have it, the download button is blanked out. Bother! Does anyone have this problem as well??

Moved from the Creative Cloud to the Muse forum. They will be able to help you here.

My main concerns are:
-If I use iTunes on my main computer, will it then be available to Apple TV?
-If I use Apple TV to download will it be available to my Main computer?
-Can the Apple TV use a media server for storage over LAN (using NTFS Samab or otherwise)?
Basically iTunes feeds AppleTv with media either syncing (copying to it) or streaming live.
Media must be compatible with AppleTV.
AppleTV requires a proper iTunes instance running - it cannot access a NAS directly.
If you store media in a folder on a NAS and it's part of the computer iTunes library (just stored on the NAS vs internal/external drive), then when running iTunes makes this content available to AppleTV.
Data will travel:
NAS > network > iTunes > network to AppleTV
As the path is potentially slower than internal/external attached drive > iTunes > network > AppleTV, it may or may not work robustly for streaming.
If AppleTv is set to sync (it can also stream in this mode), when you purchase direct on AppleTV, the media should sync back to where the itunes library is stored (via iTunes) to keep things in sync and to allow you to backup the media.
You cannot drag/drop media to/from AppleTv across the network, nor can it directly access storage itself - iTunes is an essential cog in the wheel.
The majority of commercial 'in-built iTunes media servers' will not work directly with AppleTV as it has to be 'paired' with iTunes by entering a numerical code in iTunes and does not simply see 'shared libraries'.

Apple TV keeps telling me there is a problem with my apple ID and password when I try to connect to home sharing. I have checked and rechecked and re-entered several times with same message.

I just bought an Apple TV and am trying to set it up. I am connected to wireless, is having difficulties setting time and date. When I try to connect to iTunes and sharing. It keeps telling me that there is a problem with my apple ID and password. I have quadruple checked and re-entered and it won't recognise it. What do I do? Dan.

Sounds like it is more an issue of connecting to the internet. Not just the WiFi Some people have reported that performing a power cycle on their Internet router solved this.

Had problem with my hotmail account and had to change my password. Ever since then, my default e-mail account set up to hotmail doesn't work...it sends from gmail. How can I correct that?

On your iPhone you need to change your password in 2 places:
- Incoming Mail Server and
- Outgoing Mail Server
To get to the password entry for the Outgoing Mail Server you have to tap on cell smtp.live.com and again on the second view.

Strange problem with SQLPLUS when client and server on the same box

Hi,
I have the problem with SQLPLUS when clinet and server on the same machine.
With client and server on the same machine i am running the command
sqlplus -l username/password@connect_identifier as SYSDBA.
With this command, even if you pass in wrong username or wrong password or both as wrong you can able to connect to database and execute queries.
Once Connect_identifier is correct and trying to log in as SYSDBA ,sqlplus will log in to DB with any username and password.
How to get rid of this behaviour. Is there any way to do this.
I am running this command by creating a process in C#

Thanks for the info.
How does Oracle/SQLPLUS allows any username or password to log in to DB with SYSDBA Privillages? What is the concept behind this.?
This is explainted in the above mentioned link:
Operating system authentication takes precedence over password file authentication. If you meet the requirements for operating system authentication, then even if you use a password file, you will be authenticated by operating system authentication.

Problem with logging in to BW after installation finished

Hi all,
I've a problem with logging in to my BW after i've finished installing it.
First, i'd add that my system is a standalone server. the GUI and the Froentend are already installed on the server. I'm trying to login the BW from the server.
After i'm starting my BW server from the R3 Management Console I'm trying to login my system and i get dump even before i'm getting the Log-In screen of SAP BW.
the dump i'm getting is "DBIF_RSQL_INVALID_REQUEST".
I've no idea what to do, i am stuck in that situation for 1 week, couldn't find any information about it. I've tried to read logs and couldn't find something specific.
Someone suggested it's a connection problem, but couldn't help more than that.
Any help or suggestion is mostly welcomed,
Thank you all in advance,
Yoav.

Hi again,
I've increased the virtual memeory, but it didn't help. Doesn't seem to be memory or space problem but more like a connection problem (to the SQL server - which is located at same computer where i'm tryinf to run the BW).
And to your answer: I'm using SAP Gui 6.4
Any more suggestions?
Thank you,
Yoav.

Help intermittent problem with logging in

Help i have intermittent problem with logging in, sometimes it just comes up with the desktop without any icons or dock and i have to restart the server so i can log on properly, but it doesn't happen all the time, any ideas would be appreciated???

The clients login window just shakes and won't login. I did find one thing that helps some of my Mac Lab woes.
Some students get a dock that only has 3 icons. These students also will have saving and printing problems when they get this default dock.
I think some of the problems occur when the student gets over quota, some preference files get corrupted.
1. Student will login.
2. Open the student's home folder. Then open Library and Preferences.
3. Find the file com.apple.homesync.plist and delete it.
4. Empty Safari Cache and the user's Trash Can and make sure they are not over quota.
5. Logout and login.
This will fix some problems, but not the problem when students can't login at all.

I have an older version of Adobe Digital Editions (around 3 years old) and was very happy with it. Then I had problems with my Kobo Reader and asked a friend who works in IT to assist. She could not fix the Kobo but she messed up my Addobe. She downloade

I have an older version of Adobe Digital Editions (around 3 years old) and was very happy with it.
Then I had problems with my Kobo Reader and asked a friend who works in IT to assist. She could not fix the Kobo but she messed up my Addobe. She downloaded version three and I have an account and a password - was not able to transfer my books from my reader to version three (and I don't like the lay-out - I would prefer to stay with the old version as I also loose all my download date info..)
But all the books I have bought over the last three years are in the old Adobe Digital and I cannot access them any more. When I use it I get the message "that the document is licensed to a different account. I can't even open the books on my computer.
When I go to my Kobo library, I cannot also not open my books and get the message "this doc is protected by adobe digital rights management and is not currently authorized for use with your adobe. please sign in with your authorized adobe id and try again"
I believe the problem is that I do not seem to have a digital id for my old adobe or that the Kobo is not in sync with it anymore.
can you please help me - going on vacation in three days and cannot go without books.

Please authorize ADE 3 with same credentials that you used with older version of ADE

IE11 Problem with Windows 8.1 and IIS 8.5

I have upgraded my computer from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1, 64bit and IIS 8.5 is installed on the upgraded machine. I am unable to view with IE11 the default page of the default website hosted on the local machine. The problem occurs with both
the desktop version of IE11 and the Windows 8 metro style version.
When Chrome is installed on the machine the page is visible but when using IE11 a "This page can't be displayed" message appears. The IIS Log Files reveal that it is receiving nothing from IE11. Other machines I have that have also been upgraded
to Windows 8.1 exhibit the same fault.
The strange thing is that when viewing pages on other networked machines exhibiting the same problem, you can see the pages on the remote machines but in all instances the local page cannot be viewed.
It appears that there is a problem with IE11. Uninstalling and reinstalling IE11 does not fix the problem.
Can anyone help me? Assitance with this problem would be most appreciated.

My iPod says there's a problem with my last purchase and every time I try to look at my history to clear the problem it says there no connection to ITunes

When I log into my acc it ammediatly says there's a problem with my last purchase and to go to my purchase history to clear it. When I hit continue its suppose to take me to the history but it just loads then says cannot connect

the itunes says that it knows that there isan ipod there, but it doesnt recognize it. I have reset the ipod, restarted my computer, and reinstalled itunes.
Doublechecking. Have you tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components (Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Application Support, etc ...) and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

Problem with logging

Hi, I have a problem with logging into PSN. When I want to log into in there comes an error which is NW-31456-9. I have something like that for 1 day. Anyone know how to fix this? I tried manual settings for my internet but it doesn't work.

Did some more debugging. The application is an application running under the Glassfish 2.1.1 application server. The logger is configured in a Lifecycle module and accessed in an EJB module. Here is what I found.
With JDK 1.6.0_05, the logger that I get in the Lifecycle module is the same logger instance that I get within the EJB where I am logging. In the EJB, I get all of the handlers and print out the information and all is correct and the logging works with the handler.
Change the symbolic link to point to JDK 1.6.0_22 and the logger that I get in the Lifecycle module is not the same logger instance that I get within the EJB where I am logging. This time in the EJB, the logger's level is "null" and there is no handler associated with the logger. So that is why it is not logging. What I don't understand is why the logger instance is retrieved in the EJB is not the same logger instance in the Lifecycle module.
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
