How do I get a new Administrator password for my computer?I was trying to change the password on my computer. I have done this before under "System Preferences", then "Security and Privacy". So I entered my old password, and then entered the new one...twice as always and THEN I don't know what I did, but a window popped up that I didn't finish reading completely because as I was in a hurry I accidentally hit 'enter' and that did something.. now my computer does not accept my password. I've tried both the old and new one.

Incredibly though, I can log into my iPhone, the iCloud's website and iTunes as well, using the same apple ID. I would like to keep my Mac, iPhone and iPad in sync with the iCloud system.

iCloud is not signing in on my mac, though it was working before. iCloud now refuses to verify my email, or says try later. It is not working for 3 weeks now. iCloud on iPhone, iPad and online is working perfectly.

I have a problem with the new beta of FaceTime for Mac. Right now, all I can do with it is display a window of my webcam. I can't click on Preferences in the menu bar and I also notice that "Sign Out" is grayed out. I haven't entered an Apple ID because I wasn't prompted for one. I have recently checked Apple Software Update and I have all updates installed. I also have OS X 10.6.4 installed.

I am unable to sign in with my apple id via the system preferences to icloud.I am able to sign in with the same id on the www.icloud.com website but just not able to sign into icloud via the system preferences.Consequently I am unable to access the Appstore to download any app.Any solution to this issue would be highly appriciated.I get the error as "Unable to sign in because of a problem communicating with iCloud".

I've read other threads similar to mine but none of them seem to be exactly what I'm having trouble with.My internal speakers work fine but when I put my headphones in, or any kind of external audio device, it doesn't work. When I press the volume buttons it has the "no sign" underneath the audio gauge. Oh by the way this is a macbook from 2008.

"Sign in to Microsoft Messenger failed because the service is not responding. The service is not available or you may not be connected to the internet"

I just received my new Mac pro at work and is trying to install Mountain Lion as the OS instead of Mavericks but it seems impossible. Every time I try to boot up on a bootable 10.8 installation drive I get the no entry sign. I even cloned my old MacPro and tried to boot from the external drive, I still get the no entry sign.
I tried booting from a thunderbolt, USB and even super drive, with no luck.
I need to install 10.8 because Mavericks doesn't work with Active Directory in my company, it just hangs the system every time, we've tried many different ways to fix this but it just seems to get worst.
Any way I can downgrade a 2013 Mac Pro to 10.8?

I am trying to uninstall Virex 7.5. I have got the Terminal uninstall command which opens Terminal. So far, so good. However, Terminal is asking me for my admin password but it's not allowing me to enter it. The cursor is not blinking it's just a solid black oblong - just bl**dy sitting there! Absolutely no response to any key except the enter key - then terminal helpfully says, 'Sorry, try again' What's going on? I just wanna get rid of Virex!!!

I am able to login to everything and set my username as the administrator, but I can not set a password for it, if i try to input a password or change the password I get an error message saying I have input an incorrect password. When I purchased the computer everything was blank except for the user name was set as mac user, as I said I was able to change the username but not the password.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to run Cache Out. The program asks for the system password. I type in my usual password that I use for installing programs, or trashing stuff from the system folder... It won't allow me to run the program, saying the password is wrong.
When i am supposed to type my password in the terminal, so i can uninstall an addons, i can't write... I can press enter, and it jump down a line, but when i write there, it pop up: Sorry wrong password Try again. What shall i do?
View 5 Replies View RelatedYes I know other people have posted this and gotten the answer that you just put it ion anyways and you wont see it come up but it works. Well I do not actually have a password set so usually I just hit enter with it blank but when I do that in Terminal it says sorry wrong password or something until I hit the 3rd try and it boots me.

it's a random thing, and it's happening to all 3 accounts I have in Mail. When it happens a box comes up and says that I need to enter the password. I have it stored to save and when the box comes up I click "remember my password" but it keeps coming up. it's not ever day, it's random.

If I go directly to gmail and sign in it works perfectly. However I have looked up my preferences and it all appears correct. but every time i go to send out an email it asks for my password then rejects it. I recently have been having strange things happening to my iphone access as well could this be coneccted? I have not changed anything in my settings in a very long time.
