My son is using my old macbook pro 13-inch and he went to login using the correct security info but keeps getting denied. and clicking the question mark only leads to the computer recommending the very same password that he is using with no other options to request a change password option. the computer may still be running mountain lion, though possibly mavericks. definitely not yosemite.

There are times when I drag and drop or copy an article into a MacMail message to be forwarded. If there are URLs in the article, they are not copied as such. I can go to Mail edit and use "add hyperlink" for each - one at a time, but if there are quite a few URLs, this process becomes an onerous task. Does anyone know how to copy an article (or whatever) and have the URLs copy as such?

I am running Fx v1.5 on a Mac with OSX 14.3.
When I want to email the URL of a webpage from Firefox, I click on File=>Send Link... which opens up Mail and pastes the entire URL into the body of the email. Everything looks okay on my end.
However, when the recipient receives the email, invariably the URL they receive is "broken" (with a seemingly randomly-inserted space) and does not function. This seems to not happen with short URLs
Here's the troubleshooting I've done:
[1] If I send the link to myself it works fine when I open it (with Mail).
[2] If I manually copy the link (from the Address Bar) and paste it into a email message, it still ends up being broken.
[3] If I use Safari's "send URL" function for the same webpage, it works.
[4] If I manually copy-and-paste the URL from Safari's address bar, it ends up being broken.
[5] If I "edit link" in Mail to something like "Check this out" (and then paste the URL into the edit box), it works fine.
So, evidently, this is some sort of bug in the way Mail handles long URLs. Is this a known issue?
I realize I could just use Safari, but I like Firefox and all its extensions better....
Since upgrading to Yosemite I'm experiencing the following issue:Â
- After some time Safari stops opening URLs via Wifi connection. Restarting Safari doesn't work.Â
What works is switching to another Wifi connection (sometimes switching back also solves the issue)Â
What can I do to get a reliable Safari connection via Wifi?Â

im entering an exhibition and they specifically request this :
"Mac formatted images will not be accepted."
If im using a mac with photoshop cd3 to burn my images how can I avoid this? Very basic question i know... but i want to make sure I dont goof this up because I have never had this request before.
Gave my old G4 iBook, running Tiger, to a friend. Situation is:
1) She brings the iBook over, saying she can't install a new driver because it's stopped recognizing the password.
2) I confirmed this, and using the install disk, I successfully re-set the password for that machine's one and only account.
3) Now she says that the machine asks for her keychain password "every time I try to do anything, in any application" - and she says that neither the current password, nor the old one is accepted.
I've read similar threads, and I know I have to re-set one or more keychains. Which one(s)? How can I do this?

View 2 Replies View RelatedTechnically this isn't my problem but my cousin's problem. He has a Macbook Pro and recently had to reinstall Mac OS X, from what I understand he used time machine to restore his files, settings, account, etc. And apparently now on login his password to his account is not accepted. He stated that he did not change the password from what it was before the reinstall of his OS.

Well, I'm trying to buy a MacBook Pro online, the $100 software and the 3 year guarantee and it says that my credit card information isn't accepted.  I called the credit card company 5 times and they said everything is fine. I retyped all the necessary information 3 times. Still the same result: credit card is not accepted. However, the $100 software is purchased but not the MacBook Pro nor the 3 year guarantee. This is extremely weird as to why one is purchased but not the others. Â

We have had a Mac Mini for a long time and are very happy with it. However, we have had a recurring problem with playing DVDs or CDs. Sometimes ago it started rejecting any disc. However repeated insertions of some particular discs would occasionally be accepted. We finally added an external DVD to the set up but would like to sort out the problem if we can.
Today I tried to upload one of our music CDs into ITunes and tried the internal player. It recognised the disc as a music disc but would only upload it a 1x where the extenl will copy at up to 6-7 times. We have just this week upgraded from Tiger to Snow Leopard - however, the problem existed with Tiger for the last 6 months or so.

I managed to successfully hide the file: cat picture.jpg hidden.rtf.zip > picture2.jpg
results in a picture (picture2.jpg) that is the size of the sum of picture.jpg and hidden.rtf.zip. I presume this means that I am successfully putting hidden into the picture.I can open picture2.jpg, but I can't figure out a way to access the hidden zip.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOnce side effect of Lion's new file storage system (automatic saving, versioning, etc.) is that sometimes I'm just not sure where a file is located when I pull it from the Open Recent list. Yes, there are occasions when the Open Recent list isn't determining the location of the file I'm about to load. Before, I could simply choose File | Save As... and the file dialog would show me where the file was located. But Save As is now gone. Is there any way to tell where a file is located, say, once I've loaded it in Keynote or Page via Open Recent?
