When restarting Aperture 3 I have to sign in with serial number each time.

This seems like a new problem, only started happening recently. Anyone else had this and know of a solution?

What did you do, before this started?
Did you install or upgrade? Did Aperture crash?
Which Aperture 3 version do you have? One of the recent updates had a bugfix for this problem in certain situations.
Are you entering the registration umber while signed in as an administrator? If not, try that.
Otherwise Aperture may have trouble to write the serial number to the system library.
A common problem preventing Aperture from storing the serial number is that occasionally the file /Library/Application Support/ProApps/ProApp System ID becomes corrupted.
Quit Aperture, remove this file from the System library, log off and on again and launch Aperture again. Enter the serial number. Does Aperture now remember the serial number?
Sometimes Aperture writes the "ProApp System ID" file to a temporary directory, when it cannot write to the Library. If deleting the "ProApp System ID" from the Library does not work, look at the temporary directory /tmp
Use the Finder's "Go" menu
Go > Got to folder and enter /tmp into the textfield. If you see the file there, move it to its proper location in /Library/Application Support/ProApps

Aperture requires the serial number each time

I transferred all the data and apps from my old 24" iMac to my new 27". Now every time I start Aperture, it demands that I input the serial number again.

Pro Applications do not migrate well. The first thing to try would be to reinstall Aperture; then it should suffice to enter the serial number once more, from and administrator account.
You may have migrated an old ProAppSystemID file, that needs removing, check, if you still have an old file "ProAppsSystemID" in your System Library.
Quit Aperture.
Go to your MacintoshHD and open the folder "Library", then "Application Support", then "ProApps".
Remove the File "ProAppsSystemID" to the Desktop, if it exist and restart Aperture.
Reenter your serial number, hopefully for the last time.
Sometimes Aperture writes this file to a temporary directory, when it cannot write to the Library. If the above does not work, look at the temporary directory /tmp
Use the Finder's "Go" menu
Go > Got to folder and enter /tmp into the textfield. If you see ProAppsSystemID there, move it to its proper location in /Library/Application Support/ProApps.
Aperture must be running, and you will have to wait a few minutes to be seeing the file appearing the /tmp directory.

How do I set so I do not have to sign in to get mail each time

I was signed in every time I opened the website so I can read my mail without having to sign in.
Now I have to sign in every time I want to read my email. It will not keep me signed in even with having checked "keep me signed in for 2 weeks". What do I do to stay signed in to read my email? Thanks.
I WANT TO NOT TO HAVE TO SIGN IN TO YAHOO EVERY TIME I WANT TO READ MY EMAIL.
I WANT TO STAY LOGGED IN TO READ MY EMAIL EVERY TIME I GO TO YAHOO WEBSITE.
CAN YOU HELP ME WITH THIS? THANK YOU.

TS2518 Aperture requests my serial number each time I open it

I recently upgraded my MacBook Pro and OS - it's now 10.7.5 - and my version of Aperture seems to be the latest version - 3.4.4 Now, every time I load Aperture, it demands my serial no., name, etc. Is there a fix? From skimming the Apple site, it seems that version 3.4.3 was supposed to correct this problem.
Thanks you.

Stanley,
just to be sure - you looked in the System Library directly on your MacintoshHD and not in the Library in your Home folder? And the ProApp System ID is missing?
Sometimes Aperture writes this file to a temporary directory, when it cannot write to the Library. If the above does not work, look at the temporary directory /tmp

Have you tried repairing permissions using Disk Utility?

When I launch Firefox 4.0.1 I get an error message that says "We noticed your may have signed inor signed out in another window. Click Ok to reload your page." I have to sign in with my username and password. Richard

When I launch Firefox 4.0.1 I get an error message that says "We noticed your may have signed inor signed out in another window. Click Ok to reload your page." I deleted Firefox and reloaded it - did not solve the problem. This started occurring after I downloaded Windows Service Pack 2. I have Vista 7 OS. So every time I close and relaunch Firefox, I have to sign in with my username and password. Very very, annoying. If I can't get this corrected, I have to start using another Browser. Thanks for your help. Richard

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

Why do i have to sign in to my wifi every time i turn ipad mini on

why do i have to sign in to my wifi every time i turn ipad mini on

Do #5.
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

My wife lost her iPhone. I have it signed up with find my phone but it appears that it isn't online. Maybe that is because I have cellular data turned off. What can I do?

What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer Is Lost Or Stolen
If your Mac, iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should do in advance - before you lose it or it's stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:
Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product
What-To-Do-When-Iphone-Is-Stolen

6 Ways to Track and Recover Your Lost/Stolen iPhone
It pays to be proactive by following the advice on using Find My Phone before you lose your device:

Setup your iDevice on MobileMe

There is nothing you can do after the fact. If the device is attached to the Internet then it can be tracked. It makes no difference if it's WiFi or Cellular.

Do I have to sign up with a credit card?

I'm new but I don't have a credit card or bank card. Do I have to sign up with a card..I don't plan on purchasing anything but free stuff..lol

To my knowledge, no, but you do need an iTunes Store account and that requires either a payment method or that you follow a precise procedure. Take a look here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID.
You will of course not be able to get anything other than the ad-supported version of iTunes Radio or the free apps without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)
Regards.

HT204053 Although I have iCloud, my system preferences still show Mobile.me. I have to sign in with my mobile.me ID which is not the same as my Apple ID. I want to change my iCloud ID and password. How do I do it?

Although I can access iCloud, my system preferences on my iMac still show Mobile.me. I have to sign in with my mobile.me ID which is not the same as my Apple ID. I want to change my iCloud ID and password to be consistent with my Apple ID and password. How do I do it?

you need to be running OSX 10.7 or 10.8 to use iCloud i believe. It shows you are using 10.6.8 which doesn't support iCloud.

What OSX version is it?
Does holding alt key at bootup show any boot choices?
Does holding Shift key at bootup to boot in Safe mode do the same thing?
