WebDAV - I can't turn this off

I just began getting this and it won't let me use my computer, except strangely, it is now allowing me to type this question. I am looking at it now:
WebDAV File System Authentication
Enter your user name and password to access the server at the URL"http://idisk.mac.com/tomacray/"
in the realm "me.com."
It has a space for me to type Name, then Password.
I have tried all the passwords I normally use and it won't go away. I have never seen this request before tonight. I was able to get to this login to type this message using my normal Name and Password. What is this thing? I want to know, even though as I am typing this sentence, it just disappeared. It has done that too, and then returns. I did try turning the iMac off and unplugging it for a while.
Thanks

  • In Yosemite, I can;t operate for more than a few minutes with Keychain or Safari asking for my login password.  How can I turn this off, and still be safe?

    Using Yosemite, I an't seem to work for more than a few minutes without being asked for my login password.  Keychain wants it, Safari wants it, iCloud wants it..the list goes on.  Then in 10 minutes or so, they all want it again.  Passwords are being stored by Safari as usual, but new tabs or pages bring up the request.  How can I turn this off and still have protection?

    Tutorial: Resolving Keychain Issues
    If you can't access your keychain, or forget your password If you can't get into your keychain file because you've forgotten your password or the keychain file appears to be corrupt, there are a couple of options.
    First, if you've forgotten your password, you can use the "Keychain First Aid" utility to make the keychain password the same as the login password. This can be accomplished via the following process:
      1. Open Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
      2. Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Preferences"
      3. Click the "First Aid" tab
      4. Make sure the "Synchronize login keychain password" box is checked
      5. Close the Preferences window
      6. Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Keychain First Aid"
      7. Enter your username and password
      8. Click the "Repair" button
    The second option is to completely delete your keychain then recreate it. This routine is useful if your keychain appears to be corrupt or otherwise inaccessible. This can be accomplished as follows:
      1. Launch Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
      2. Click "Show Keychains" in the lower-left corner of the window.
      3. Select the problematic keychain from the left-hand pane.
      4. Navigate to the "File" menu and select "Delete Keychain '(name of keychain)'"
      5. Check all options for deletion and press "OK"
      6. Create a new keychain by going to the "File" menu, then "New" and selecting
          "New Keychain"
      7. You can now make this keychain your default if you desire by selecting it, then
          going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make '(name of keychain)' Default"
    Login as root and perform repair In some cases, problems with keychains can only be resolved when logged in as the root user.
    First, you want to enable the root user:
      1. OS X Mountain Lion: Enable and disable the root user
      2. OS X Lion: Enable and disable the root user
      3. Mac OS X 10.6: Enabling the root user
      4. Enabling and using the "root" user in Mac OS X
    After enabling the root user, and logging in under this account, again open Keychain Access. First attempt repairs using Keychain First Aid, and failing that, delete then recreate the keychain as described above while logged in as root.
    Persistently asked for stored passwords If you are persistently asked for passwords in various applications that you have specified should be remembered in a keychain, your "login" keychain may not be active for one reason or another.
    Navigate to ~/Library/Keychains/ (this is the Library folder inside your user's home folder). Find the file named "login.keychain" and double-click it.
    Failing that, select the "login" keychain within the Keychain Access application and make sure it is the default keychain by going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make 'Login' Default"
    Turn off Keychain synchronization in applications having problems If specific applications are experiencing issues when accessing password-protected material, the Keychain may be to blame.
    The above comes from an article published on MacFixit.com.

  • HT1212 Someone else has put a password on my phone. I have read all the restoring or backing up methods but when I go to do those it says to turn off find my iPhone in my setting. If I cant unlock my phone I obviously can't turn this off. Help

    Someone else has put a password on my phone. I have read all the restoring or backing up methods but when I go to do those it says to turn off find my iPhone in my setting. If I cant unlock my phone I obviously can't turn this off. Help

    If you have a lock code, how did someone change the apple ID for "find my phone?"   You should go by the apple store and let them help you.

  • In Piano Roll, double click on note opens List editor. CAN I TURN THIS OFF?

    While editing in the Piano Roll Editor, double clicking on a note opens up the List Editor.
    CAN I TURN THIS OFF?

    I realize that it is my way of working that causes the editor to open up. When I work fast and with the zoom out a little to far, some times when trying to move a note it fails to move and when I try to move it again the List Editor opens up. I am very set in my ways after 20 years of non linear and 30 years of midi programming. I was just surprised that this is not a preference.
    I really don't want to slow down my double click settings. I like them fast to avoid this very thing, false double clicking. Maybe I'll try making them faster.
    Does anyone know where the support Feedback is located? I would love to request another pref be added.

  • Black line texture map over the texture. How can I turn this off?

    I have recently been editing textures from 3D models, but when I open the texture, black lines appear on my screen, displaying a texture map over the actual texture. This is not a layer, or something I can turn off in Window settings, and resetting my Photoshop settings does not help (Photoshop CC).
    Is there a way to turn this off as it is interfering with what I am trying to do greatly.

    System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing > Uncheck Voiceover, or any of the options on that page.
    Edit: Sorry, read your OP wrong.
    However the solution is likely to be in universal access, so take a look through there, and you'll most likely find the solution.

  • Anytime I move my mouse my current window disappears. I move the mouse to the top left corner and then I comes back. How can I turn this off?

    Anytime I move my mouse my current window that is open disappears. When I move my mouse to the top left corner it comes back. How do I turn this off? It's not a Zoom issue, it disappears completely. Help please.

    Are you running 10.6 Snow Leopard as your profile indicates?
    If so, it sounds like maybe an Expose or Active Screen Corners issue?
    Go to Apple > System Preferences > Expose & Spaces > Expose and
    1. experment with the Active Screen Corners selections
    2. take a look at your F key settings for Expose
    3. lastly check your Dashboard settings

  • When trying to send a comment to a web site I get a message, Firefox has blocked this site, how can I turn this off?

    when trying to send a comment to discussion sites I get an error message that says "Firefox has blocked this site" actions offered "allow"
    or "X". When I enter "allow" it ignores the command and the message disappears. A lot of wasted thought and typing. How do I turn this feature off.

    Thanks

    I should have posted this earlier, but anyway. I restored my laptop to factory version after backing up any useful data, and the first thing I the laptop was restored was connect to the internet, download and install the latest version of iTunes. And Bingo! It worked.

    In the previous version of Firefox, the status bar could be turned on and off.

  • Since updating to ios6 game center keeps popping up everytime i go to play a game. how can i turn this off. I have already set notifications to off

    Hi all,
    Since I updated my iPhone4 to IOS6 I keep getting game center popping up evertime I open a game. I am not interested in signing in as I am only playing for fun.
    I have turned off notifications in the setting menu, but it still keeps popping up.
    Is there any way of stopping this?

    I'm pretty sure this is an Apple thing and you can't do anything about it. To get rid of the notification just do as it asks then try to forget about it.

  • Iphoto comes up on start up- how can I turn this off?

    Can't figure out why this is happening- iphoto automatically opens when I turn on the computer.

    It's probably set as a Login Item.  Go into System Preferences -> Users & Groups.  Select the account you're currently logged in with from the list (should already be selected), and choose 'Login Items'.  There you will see a list of all the applications that will start up automatically on login.  Highlight the item you want to remove and click the minus [-] sign at the bottom.

  • I am receiving a message saying that my security settings will not allow download of apps except from app store or certain vendors. How can I turn this off?

    Can anyone tell me how to turn off the setting that will not allow me to open any app other than one from apple or "selected" others. Unable to open Quickeys and install after download. Thanx   Sam

    Open the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, unlock it, and allow applications from anywhere. Alternatively, launch each application by control-clicking it and choosing Open.
