To startup my macbook pro, it doesn't accept my password
please help,,, i cannot startup my mac,,, it does not accept my password and when i was able to reset the password of my apple ID, it always ask login keychain password on which i do not know which keychain
Hello Arlene D.
You should be able to reset the password to your Mac with the OS X Snow Leopard install disc. The first article below will walk you through that. If after you have logged in and you get that constant alert for your keychain login, then second article will sort you out with fixing that alert.

Encore keeps crashing on startup on macbook pro. I have all the latest cc and osx updates
encore keeps crashing on startup on macbook pro. I have all the latest cc and osx updates
What specific OS and Encore versions? Since you say "latest OS updates," I assume Mavericks, and is this the relatively new 10.9.1 version?
Where in the startup does it crash? Is there an error message?
Mavericks causes a variety of issues, and we don't have enough data to really pin them down. At least with the original Mavericks, some users appeared to get CS6 to run with some serious but workable problems.
Make sure you have handled any permissions issues.

MacBook Pro display doesn't close down properly.
We have one MacBook Pro that doesn't close down properly. The display just bounces up. Is there any way to fix this or is this something that needs to be fixed by a technician?
Try blowing out the slots where the two "prongs" come up, and the release button slot (push it in and out a bit while doing this) with compressed air. (use your lungs if you don't have a can of air).
Often a bit of crumb or other gunk will impede the mechanism enough to prevent the magnets from being able to do their job properly.

My MacBook Pro keyboard doesn't work to log in, but lets me type if I'm logged in as a guest. What do I do?
OK, some more info.
I have re-installed os/x and applied all of the updates.
I have tried to migrate my existing accounts and the problem consistently manifests as below:
1. In a new user account, I can log in and use the keyboard then logout
2. If I log in to the migrated user account, the non-numeric keys on the keyboard do not work. If I then log out, and try to log in to another account on the same machine, the non-numeric keys continue not to work.
This would seem to suggest that as the profiles being migrated are on a machine with the same version of up to date OS/X, the issue lies with either the Macbook Pro (other people have also had keyboard problems) or with the migration assistant not working properly given that the current profiles work fine on another mac.
Any more ideas anyone? -

I need to have my macbook pro repaired how can I hide passwords and banking info?
Create a new admin account named repair and only give them the password for that account. Alternately you could back up or clone your system, erase the hard drive and then reinstall OS X with one admin account that has no personal information.

I have a new Macbook pro and can't recall the password I used with my Time capsule - How can I (ideally) retrieve or possibly change the time capsule password?
Remember security on a TC is an illusion.
Simply press the reset button for 1-2 sec.. you must not do too long .. it will then hard reset.. but soft reset will revert all passwords to default for 5min. ie TC password is now public.
Remember this the next time because anybody at all can change your passwords.
Once into the TC you can then open the view passwords if you wanted any weaker security. Click and open the TC.. and click on edit.. then go to the top menu..
Voila .. all your passwords in plain sight to any Tom Dick and Fred. -
Installing Photoshop CS4 from original Disk onto my new Macbook Pro. Serial number accepted but now asks for the serial number of a previous version e.g. CS3 which I no longer keep. How do I resolve ?
Tina Hadley did you migrate/transfer your applications over to your new Macintosh? If so this could cause problems with your serial number being recognized. Please run the available uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder. Once this is done you will also want to run the CC Cleaner Tool. Details on the use of the CC Cleaner Tool can be found at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

I can't unlock the screen to access my macbook pro. When I enter the password it just jiggles. I'm not getting an error message, so I'm pretty certain that the password is correct. Any suggestions?
I already checked that one.
I'm baffled, especially since it will usually give you the Invalid user name or password entered message. I'm not getting that. Instead the password field just jiggles back and forth. Very odd. -

I have a MacBook Pro using my Apple ID and Password, can I home share with my wife's iPad that uses her Apple ID and password
You have to all be signed into the same Apple ID and on the same WiFi network, but yes you can do it. You have to sign into her Apple ID on your iPad in the store settings.

It was tricky sorting out the actual questions in your post. I think the other poster has one question in hand, here's the other:

I am having trouble sending an email from mail on my macbook pro. It keeps requesting my password. What should I do?
There seems to be a few bugs with iCloud Mail at times, so send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Apple support article, but I don't think it really addresses your problem.
