Resume from standby does NOT ask for password--how to fix?
On my X240, when I resume from standby, I am NOT being asked for my password. But I want to.
In Power Manager, in Events, I keep setting Require password on standby resume to yes, but the computer comes out of standby when I touch the keyboard, without asking for my password.
NB I work with the laptop closed, and docked in a Targus dock. Under AC settings, for the lid closed event, I have set it to Do Nothing
Hi,
Pardon a silly question, but is it actually resuming from standby or just re-activating the display? By that I mean that the screen is blank but the laptop isn't yet in standby mode.
How do you have the screen blank and standby timers set and how do they compare to the times that you observe the problem?

My iphone does not ask for password for itunes
Ever since I installed ios 6 to my 2 iphone 4's. It does not ask for a password to download games or make purchases. I have a 5 year old son who can now purchase at will, how do I reset or fix that? Where is my security?
Thanks for letting me know. I never even checked to see if it was configurable.
Edit: I don't see where you can turn enable or disable the requirement for a passcode for udates? Can you tell me where to find it? The path you referred to only seems to relate to purchases. -
Application Server Control does not ask for password
Hi all-
I just installed App Server (as part of Collaboration Suite) and am working on security. For some reason, the App Server Control for the apps tier does not ask for a username/password. Anyone know how to fix that glaring hole? Infrastructure does ask for user/pass, just not apps.
Thanks!
RobI had to clear authenticated sessions AND cookies (in Firefox). Clearing only one or the other isn't enough.

When I select the Airport Express as Remote Speaker in Itunes I just see trying to connect and it can't connect.
I changed my password on the Airport and I don't see where I can put in the new password in Itunes.
This problem is on my Imac. On my Mac Pro a window came up asking for password to connect because it was the first time.
I can connect on the Mac Pro but not my Imac.Update on my problem connecting in Itunes with my Airport Express. Not sure if anything I tried made a difference
but I finally got the Pop up window saying this device requires a Password. I entered the password and I can once again use the Airport Express as a remote speaker. -
Have deleted account.
Created new existing mail account, enter server details, click test - the server details are found automatically. Then enter password and click ok - then Thunderbird hangs forever while saying that password is ok.
Alternatively - create new existing mail account without entering password, click ok, then procedure goes through, and the email gets created. However, it never asks for password. Even upon restart of Thunderbird and machine. There are no passwords saved under security settings

New Mac Book Pro does not ask for password when waking from sleep
I've noticed that several others are having this problem. I have tried all of the suggestions on the other posts and have had no luck getting it to work.
I have it set to "require password to wake this computer from sleep or screensaver".
When I wake the computer in the morning it requires a password but if I wake it after and hour or two it does not. I have my screensaver set to turn on after 4 minutes but it never asks for a password when when I come back to my computer.
I think this is a bug and Apple should deal with it in a security update.
I'm open to any more suggestion though.
Thanks,
TevadarFYI, you can also lock your screen manually if you like. Launch Applications > Utilities > Keychain Access, select Keychain Access menu > Preferences > General tab, and check the box to "Show Status in Menu Bar." That places a padlock icon in your menu bar, and clicking on that will give you the option to Lock Screen.

Mail on the Mac - does not ask for password
I realize this isn't exactly a Safari topic, but I don't see a category devoted to Mail problems.
I've just recently got a new cable provider and Mail is set up through them and it can send and receive mail ok.
My problem is that I would like to set a password so that only I can see my email. I have a user name and password but Mail never asks for my password when I click to open the Mail application.
What am I doing wrong ? Thanks for your help and if this question should have been placed under another category please let me know.Aloha!
Try this... From the Menu Bar in Mac Mail, click Mail/Preferences. Select the Accounts tab. Click the Account Information tab.
You will See: Incoming Mail Server/UserName/ and Password. If your password is stored there, just delete it. Close the Preferences window and click Save when asked to save changes.
Quit the Mail application, then re-launch it. Click the Get Mail tab top left side of the window. You should be prompted for your password ... type it in but if you are prompted to Save it in your Keychain, click No.
Will that do the job?

I have no idea what to try next. Please help!
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Login screen does not ask for password when logging into user account
This is an issue that did not immediately manifest itself after I have upgraded to Snow Leopard. I am not sure what exactly triggered it.
Anyway, now at the login screen if I choose to login with my own user account, i.e. clicking on the icon associated to my user account, I am not prompted for the password and the system seems to start trying to login, as there is a discernible pause. Obviously that will fail, and I am returned to the login screen again.
If I choose the other user option, as before I will be allowed to manually type in an user id and password, and using this way I am able to login into my own account (previously I only use this for logging in to the root account).
Any idea on how I can make the field for typing in the password appear again? Thanks.Just to report that deleting /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow.plist did not help.
Anyway I installed Snow Leopard again and the problem went away. Hope I will not do something that will trigger it again. -

Erased all saved passwords, rebooted, now TB does not ask for new password!
I erased all saved passwords as I've had to change the passwords on my accounts. I then rebooted and now TB does not ask for new password. I have rebooted entire computer and still no change.
Thanks!I presume you removed the passwords via Tools > Options > Security > Passwords tab.
Do you have these settings in Account Settings:
Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account.
* select: 'Check for new messages at start up'
* select: 'check for new messages every eg: 15 minutes'
* select : 'Automatically download new messages'
make other prefered settings and click on OK to save changes. -
My I phone 4 will not hook to my wifi. All it says is cannot connect to netgear then dismiss. I have a pssword but it does not ask for it Thanks

For restoring from backup itunes is asking for password
Hi Experts
for restoring from backup itunes is asking for password and i didn't give any password when backup was going on not even i checked on encrypt my backup.
please help me ASAPSee:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3057884
I too have experienced the "blame everything but Apple products/software" indoctrination of the Apple phone support techs!
I have a feeling that iTunes automatically switches encryption on and puts as default a previous iTunes store password but as I don't leave mine the same all the time (and don't feel the need to remember historic passwords that I'm not using to secure anything against) I have no clue what it is.
Good luck trying to get useful advice on here relating to the issue, it will go along the lines of...
1) Its your fault for setting it and forgetting the password,
2) We know everything and theres definately no way iTunes would set backups to encrypt without your knowledge and...
3) Theres no fix for this issue, you might be able to save some of your data, but most will be lost (unless you specifically ask for an iTunes redownload exemption/ token then your purchases could be lost too).

Gsmartcontrol polkit problem: Not asking for password anymore [solved]
polkit 0.112-2
polkit-gnome 0.105-2
gsmartcontrol 0.8.7-4
DE: LXDE
When trying to use gsmartcontrol as normal user it does not ask for permission anymore but starts and the drives are shown as 'unknown model' now.
The polkit-gnome-authentication is autostarted at boot and works fine with gparted e.g.
But with gsmartcontrol I get:
polkitd[356]: Operator of unix-session:c1 FAILED to authenticate to gain authorization for action org.archlinux.pkexec.gparted for unix-process:1126:101937 [/bin/bash /usr/bin/gparted_polkit] (owned by unix-user:user)
How can I get gsmartcontrol working again as normal user?
SOLUTION:
Use '/usr/bin/gsmartcontrol_polkit' instead of (de)fault '/usr/bin/gsmartcontrol' in your starter.
Last edited by renegat (2014-11-28 15:44:38)Hello,
I sometimes have the same problem, but there's a secure way to overcome this behaviour : when you have finished your purchases, simply go to "configuration" and "store" folder where you'll simply deactivate your account. It's the safest way, sure.
When you wish to access appstore again, go to this folder back and activate. ID & Password will be required then to download.
Hope this will help.
Cheers.
