Why does Intel version always ask for my password when adding loops?

When I add loops to the PPC version, it never asks for my password. I want this behavior on the Intel version. Always asking for my password’s really annoying. Thanks very much. Peace.

Being able to to access, install and change anything on your computer with a simple keystroke is just not a good thing security wise. Maybe you don't download from unknown sources, use a wifi network, use public or work networks, IM, let others use your computer or let OS and software get out of date. But people reading this may not be in your situation. Most password hacking tools will start with single keystrokes and no password will gain access in a fraction of a second.

  • Why does my iMac now ask for a password when trying to create a folder in Finder?

    Hi guys
    My iMac has started to ask me for my login password when I try and create a new folder using Finder. I concert folders on the desktop and drag to the correct location in Finder and I can also create folders in the tree view of Adobe Bridge both without having to enter a password. Any suggestions?
    Many thanks

    Give this a try:
    Reset User Permissions and ACLs
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    From the Utilities menu select Terminal. At the Terminal prompt enter: resetpassword. Press RETURN. When the window opens select your startup drive where it says "Select the volume containing the user account:" At the bottom of the window you will see, "Reset Home folder permissions and ACLs." Click on the Reset button.

  • Why does my ipad keep asking for exchange password when I go into my mail

    I was tinkering with it last night and found that the mac mini didn't like the frequency that the router was using to communicate. I changed from channel 6 to channel 9 and the problem went away. Perhaps an auto setting would have worked but I'm using and older Linksys router and the auto was not an option.

  • Why does mac os keep asking for keychain password

    why does mac os keep asking for keychain password

    I'm getting this same problem. It seems random when it asks for the password, maybe every 3 or 4 days it'll ask when I plug it in at night. I've tried restoring from an older backup, which has not resolved the issue.

  • Why does my G5 not ask for my pswd when mounting a .dmg when my iBook does?

    i have an app on a disk that i am trying to put on my iMac G5. it opens but does not ask for my password. when i click the installer it goes through a couple stages but then says "there is nothing to open". so, i take this disk and put it in my iBook, it opens and i get the prompt asking for my password, i type it in, click the installer and the app installs no problem. i've opened apps from a disk before on my iMac with no problems. i get the same error response if i use the diskmounter or disk utility. if anyone has any ideas i'd be almost next to eternally grateful.
    cheers.

  • Repeatedly asking for apple password when adding security questions

    when trying to download apps on ipod touch it asks me to choose 3 security questions (which i did 2 days ago when i first set it up )but when continuing to try and answer questions its repeatedly asks for apple password which i am entering correctly and doesnt seem to get any further and therefore i cant download apps.
    Can anyone help?

    I encountered this on my son's iPod Touch. I tried an 'Update All', but since he has one or two apps from his sister's Apple ID and she wasn't here to enter her password (which stopped the whole process!) I wanted to just update the other apps (purchased on my Apple ID). However, since there wasn't an option to skip an app, it seemed the only way to update the others (around 50 apps) was to click on all the update buttons individually. That would have been annoying enough, but fancy being asked to type in my password for every… single… app!
    Absolute madness. Does Apple not think through these things anymore? They used to pay such careful attention to little details of the user experience. Very frustrating.

  • Why does the App Store asks for wrong password

    Hi,
    I'm travelling a lot between the U.S. and Europe, which causes that I have 2 Apple IDs.
    So there are some apps I purchased with my US-Apple-ID, and some apps I purchased with my second apple ID.
    If I wanted to update my apps from both accounts it first asked my for the password of my 1st Apple ID, then the one of my second.
    This worked fine the past two years.
    Now it only asks me for one of them, but still wants to update all of my apps. Finally it says that this app has not been purchased before, but I can purchase it know by tapping "ok". (or something like this). I already bought it. why does it ask for the wrong password of the wrong apple id, I didn't purchase it with?
    Here are the steps I already tried:
    1. restarting my device
    2. Sign off and sign back in with my ID I purchased it with. -> Then tapping "Update All" OR just "Update" at a specific app stills asks me for the password of the wrong ID. (I did this with the appstore app and the settings app->AppStore)
    3. sign in with the ID I purchased it with, then search for the specific app and hit "update" (where it usually says "buy", or "free" if not installed yet). It still asks me for the wrong apple id.
    4. I'm not syncing my apps with iTunes anymore, just music and my photos. I don't want to sync my apps because I would have to reinstall all my apps again and loose all of it's data.
    5. I still can buy new apps with both accounts and then it's still asking for the right ID, I want to purchase it with (the one I'm currently signed in).
    6. Deleting the app, then sign in with the right ID, search for the ID and redownload the new version worked, but in this case all my app data is lost.
    7. In App Purchases are NOT working, it asks for the right password, but then it's says that I have to buy the app again. ?!?
    Do you have any idea, why this happend or why I'm unable to update my own apps?

    There is a 15-minute window. After 15 minutes of inactivity, you will again be prompted for the password next time you try to purchase/download something.

  • Why does firefox beta download ask for adminstrator password but when I put it in, its says wrong password or user name?

    whenever I try to download firefox beta on my laptop it asks for an adminstrator password but when i put it in it says wrong user " name or password" so I try to by pass that by trying to download as user but then nothing happens the dialog box disappears and I have to start the download all over again. I'm trying to sync firefox with my android phone but I can't get the desktop/laptop version going.

    Since installing Windows 7 there have been some weird goings on with my laptop.
    I kept muddling around with this and ran a few diagnostics only to find that everything was fine. There was an incompatibility problem with Windows 7 and Firefox (safe mode) which I cared for by simply agreeing with everything Windows 7 wanted to do. It made an adjustment and apparently between the two programs they worked it out.
    I tried downloading Firefox 4 beta one more time...using a fresh download in my Firefox browser and from the Firefox webpage. Oddly, this time the program downloaded saved itself to my laptop. I was able to open and install it without incident.
    Now, I am all sync'd up!
    Thank you very much for your assistance

  • Why does my app always ask for access to Contacts?

    I have written an app in AppleScript, that tries to access Contacts.  Every time I run the app, I get a dialog asking me to allow access.  In Settings / Security & Privacy / Privacy, my app is listed as one of the apps that is allowed to access Contacts, and the box is checked.  I'm stumped.  Thanks for any suggestions!

    I'm with you on this. Hopefully, someone will help us with this.

  • Why does Time machine still ask for a disk when it is switched off?

    My Time Capsule recently died, PSU problems , I think. So I went into system prefs and deselected the Time Capsule as the back-up disk in Time Machine and switched off Time Machine. Yet every few minutes I get a window appearing telling me Time Machine can't find a back-up disk. Why is this happening and how do I stop it? Thanks
    Mac Pro 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon, 6 Gb RAM, OS 10.8.2

    Mountain Lion may expect to be using a local disk if external is not available..
    Delete the plist.. this gives info.. whether it helps I don't know.

  • Why does my keychain keep asking for my password every time I access the same web site?

    The ClamXav scan found 4 virus/trojan problems and quarantined them. Before I did thid, my keychain keeps popping up asking me if I want to save my password everytime I visit the same web site(s). Is there an issue with this? And how to I fix it?

    What were the infection names associated with those four files and where we're they found. That information is in your Scan Log if you didn't record them yourself. Search for the word "FOUND" in upper case.
    The keychain activity sounds normal as long as your browser preferences are set to save that information for AutoFill the next time you visit the site.

  • Mail always asks for accounts' passwords when external app passes file

    Hi - although password handling by Mail in Lion seems to be problematic at times, after a quick stroll through the support forum, I have not been able to find this specific problem. It's not a massive issue but a bit of a pain...
    I have three POP email accounts. When Mail is not running but opened by an external application using "Send File as Email" (e.g., sending a pdf  from Preview), when Mail opens I have to put the passwords in for all accounts.
    I simply close email, open it again from the dock and everything works fine.
    Not a major issue but a hassle since Lion is a bit sluggish on my machine anyway (it's a Macbook Pro early 2008 but with a RAM upgrade), especially Mail.
    Has anyone experienced this problem or even a solution?
    Thanks...

    PS: it is same when
    you slide a file from desktop / finder window onto the Mail icon to open mail and create the new email at the same time, and, I think,
    when Mail is opened normally via the dock shortcut but opens very slowly because of Lion slowness (e.g. opening three programs at the same time and time machine preparing for backup)...

  • I always have trouble with my mailbox. It is always asking for my passwords but everything has been verified. How can I get it to stop doing it and start working????

    There is only one thing that happens -- the Server does not respond.
    Your mac concludes that you must have entered the wrong password. That may happen once, but then other issues become more likely, and it keeps asking for a new password.
    Sometimes the Server is down for maintenance. Sometimes something is configured wrong. Some services do this on purpose to get you to use WebMail (pick up your Mail with your Browser) so they can show you some ads.
