When connecting to a previously opened server, how do I change to a "registered user" from formerly used "guest?"

During my attempt to transfer my PC contents to my Mac using an ethernet cable, I typed my PC name in to the server address space (under connect to server). I did not understand that the sign-in info for "registered user" was supposed to be my PC sign-in info. I was trying to use my MAC info, which didn't work, so I just signed in as a guest. All the files are useless, I think because I signed in as a guest. So I would like to sign in as a "registered user," now that I know I need to use my PC sign-in info. However, now the mac has it in its system and won't give me the option. Does anyone know how I can get a second chance to do this?
Thanks, Sharky

If you mean that you are trying to change the Apple ID used for purchasing apps, go to Settings>Store, tap the Apple ID at the bottom, sign out, then sign back in using the ID you want to use.

How do I get connected to a server on my network via an IP address? When I try to open in a URL and login as a registered user with proper login it errors out saying there was a problem with connecting to the server?

I am new to Mac...How do I get connected to a server on my network via a hyper link IP address path? When I try to open in a URL and login as a registered user with proper login it errors out saying there was a problem with connecting to the server?

Some of the following is going to use some technical terms — this area is inherently somewhat technical.
If you don't understand some part of the following reply, please ask.
Is this your own OS X Server system on your own network, or is this some other server within some larger organization?
You're posting this in the OS X Server forum, which is a software package that allows OS X systems to provide web-based and many other services; to become servers.
If it's your OS X Server on your network, then the network and DNS configurations are suspect, or the server is somehow malfunctioning or misconfigured. This is unfortunately fairly common, as some folks do try to avoid setting up DNS services.
If it's a larger organization and somebody else is managing the server and the network, then you'll probably need to contact the IT folks for assistance; to learn the network setup and DNS requirements, and if there's a problem with the server itself.
The basic web URL "hyper link IP address path" — without using DNS — usually looks something the following, where you'll need to replace 10.20.30.40 with the IP address of your server:
http://10.20.30.40
UptimeJeff has posted a URL that specifies the AFP file system; an OS X file share. That's used if you're connecting to an Apple storage service somewhere on your network. You might alternatively need to specify smb://10.20.30.40 or such, if it's a Windows file server. (There can be additional requirements for connecting to Windows Server systems, too.)
If there's local IT staff available here, please contact them for assistance. If these are your own local systems and your own local OS X Server system, then some information on the server will be needed. (If you're on a NAT'd network, you'll also need to get DNS services configured and working on your local OS X Server system and your network — you'll not be able to skip this step and reference ISP DNS servers here — or things can and usually will get weird.)

When I want to attach a file to an e-mail I'm sending from my iCloud account it makes the file show up in the body of the e-mail instead of attaching it as a separate file the receiver can open. How can I change this?

It should be an attachment. Your Mac just displays a preview of certain attachments (such as .pdfs) in the body of the message. A PC, for example, will see it as an attached file rather than a preview.
You can save the attachment on your Mac by Control-clicking on it and selecting Save Attachment.

Finalcutserver will only generate proxies when admin is logged in to server - how do I solve that?

Finalcutserver will only generate proxies when admin is logged in to server - how do I solve that?

Proxies and media are placed on mounted san volume and with correct rights.
I can duplicate an asset, but no transcoding are taking place - when admin is logged out. As soon as admin logs in transcoding are working again.
I really don't know what to look for, any good idea's?

How can I change (or select) what is being being used when I share, as the file cover. When I Share lets say "Master File" i want to select a frame that is used as the file cover. So when its on my desktop I see this image as the file icon.

I don't think Finder does this (I've tried).
iTunes does though. Where you can set artwork or the "poster frame"...
This may not be what you want but if it helps, I know 2 ways do this is
Open the video in QuicktimePlayer7 | View | Set Poster Frame (even then, you might need to save it as .mov (ie in a 'mov container').
Drag the file into iTunes and set the artwork (as in http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/adding-album-cover-art-or-images-in-itunes .html)
From there, iTunes will use that frame as the "poster frame" ie the photo/frame that shows when you browse your videos. Which is what you want, but limited to iTunes.
When I do either of these above, the frame I set does not show when exploring files in "Finder" (or in the other Explorer tool I use called "Pathfinder").
So it maybe, that exactly what you want, is not possible.

Have them install Quicktime on their PC's from Apple's website, that's the easiest fix.

HT201270 I changed my apple id online but my old user name continues to show up when I attempt to do updates. How can I change my ID on my iphone so I can do the app. updates

My old apple ID is still on my iphone when I attempt to do updates. How can I change the apple ID on my phone I keep on getting the error message " your apple id or password is incorrect., but I don't know how to change the id??

Just call apple and explain the situation. Just ask the automated voice person to speak with a real person and it will actually transfer you. Apple will fix it. And I personally believe apple has the best customer support in the world. ***UPDATE Disregard that. Just delete the account from your phone and sign back in with your current one. and it should be fine. if that does not work try what i first suggested.

I have recently immigrated to the US but my apple ID is still stuck with my previous country. How do I change the country? Preferably without using a credit cardI've only been here in the US 2 months and still have no US credit card.

Your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

How can I change the default pdf reader from the installed (but not yet registered) Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to Adobe Reader XI?

How can I change the default pdf reader from the installed (but not yet registered) Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to Adobe Reader XI? I'm having some hiccups getting Adobe to register the software, but since I set it as the default .pdf reader during setup, things try (and fail) to open in the as yet unregistered software. How can I change it temporariiy to the Acrobat Reader XI that I have installed?

Anubha,
It worked! Thank you so much.
I'd opened file with the 'Open with' feature then clicking Adobe Reader,
but that didn't do it. When I used 'Open with', then 'Choose default
program...', it worked like a charm.
Again, thank you!

How do I change the settings in Maps from miles to kilometers?

How do I change the settings in Maps from miles to kilometers?

I've had an entirely different experience with Map units. Maps on my iPad (iOS 8) will only deliver units in kilometers, no matter how I adjust the settings for Maps or Region/Language. I am trying to calculate distances between two locations in the United States where all road distances are measured in miles. My iPad region is set to United States. When I open the settings for Maps, change the units from kilometers to miles, and close the window, IOS-8 changes the setting back to kilometers every time.
Slick interfaces and device designs aside, at times these little annoying bugs just make the folks at Apple look like rank amateurs.

When connecting to a previously opened server, how do I change to a "registered user" from formerly used "guest?"
