What is this and how do I get past it??

I set my mail account up when I first got my Mac, but have never used it. When I went to use I got the following message.
The SMTP server “smtp.mac.com” rejected the password for user “bradlyward”
My apartment has switched to wi-fi recently so the server may have changed.
In short how do I delete the account and set up a new one?
Can anybody help? There is a reward.

Presumably this means you have a dotmac account? if so, go to http://www.mac.com and check you have the right password to sign in. If not you will have to go through their 'forgot your password?' process. Then in mail, preferences>accounts, select the mac.com account and make sure the password matches.
If you don't have a dotmac account then mail may have forgotten your settings somehow and reverted to a default. In mail: preferences>accounts and click on the + button in the bottom left-hand corner. You will need to enter your username and the addresses of your POP and SMTP servers as provided by your ISP.

You're not obligated to insert a gift code. But you can purchase gift codes on the Apple online store (gift cards or certificates) or Apple Retail store
Gift codes are pre paid cards so you can use credit on the iTunes Store to purchase content

Open the Sharing pane in System Preferences. If the Computer Name is not set, enter a name. You may first have to click the lock icon in the lower left corner and authenticate to unlock the settings.

That icon indicates your iPhone is rotation locked.

A misleading and malicious popup. Launch Safari with the Shift key held down; if that doesn't work, temporarily disconnect the computer from the Internet.

Google changed their menu bar. Firefox hasn't used Google for the default homepage since the Firefox 3.6 versions. Firefox 4+ versions use '''about:home'''.<br />

There is no other way to bypass the combintation lock other than to connect the nano to iTunes and restore it to factory settings, erasing all content and settings from the iPod.

\Based on other forum users' posts, it seems like all you need to do is Restore the phone from your latest backup, and that should "refresh" your phone's appraisal of its data storage.

When I plug in my iPod nano 4th gen to iTunes, a lot of space is taken up by 'other'. What is this and how can I get rid of it to free up some space?

When I plug in my iPod nano 4th gen to iTunes and click on my iPod, I can see a graph showing how much space is available on my iPod and what it is being taken up by. A lot of space is taken up by 'other'. What is this? I have a big iTunes library, with about 2000 songs, so I don't want all this space taken up by something I don't know what it is. How can I get rid of it?

OmniDiskSweeper is a good program to see what's taking up space: http://www.omnigroup.com/products/omnidisksweeper/

What is this and how do I get past it??
