password

Hi, when I log into the iCloud web interface, after typing in my Apple ID and password, the next window asks me two security questions, which I answer correctly, but instead of being in the iCloud web interface now, I am asked to type in my password again and then choose a new password and...

I suspect I already know the answer to this question as Apple aren't going to make it easy for people to bypass their 30% revenue stream on app sales... but here goes anyway! I've developed an app for a customer and they love it (so far so good). They were originally planning to sell it on the...

Hello. I have two accounts on my mac. Both are administrators. But for some reason, only one (the least used one) is an option for login when the mac is first started up. Once I log into the one account then log off, they're both present. But why is only one of the accounts a login option when...

Hi, I have a MacBook Air model number A1369. The computer is doing something that I have never seen… what it is doing is displaying a password screen when the power button is pressed. I also see the phrase Safe Boot at the top. When the power is pressed, it does not seem like anything is even...

I've just set up iCloud keychain because I was trying to find a safe way to keep all of my passwords. However, I find it VERY unsettling that anyone who knows my iPhone passcode (or computer login for that matter) can easily see all of the stored passwords. You would think Apple would allow the...

it looks so easy to password protect a document in Word for Mac, but the option does not show up for me. I followed the instructions but there is no option to password a document in my Word. Help!

Hello dear people, I've got a small issue here. A while ago I got multiple keychain errors, and I tried to reinstall OS X again and it all failed. Thinking my HDD in my MacBook had failed I ordered a brand new SDD (Samsung Evo 850). After a successful install I get the same errors again, and my...

I use Carbon Copy Cloner to back my Mac up on my external HD. But I want to protect the data, so people can't just plug the external HD in to their computer and see all my files. Would it be possible to make it, so that you have to enter a password before viewing the files on the external HD?

Hey guys! I'm just wondering why my Macbook Pro caps lock goes all buggy when entering my password on start up. When the caps lock button shows green it's actually showing on the screen as its off. When the caps lock button is not lit up green it's showing on the screen as caps locks is on. It's...

As has been all over the news recently, current versions of iOS have an optional feature to auto-erase the device after ten failed password attempts. Which is a great iPhone security feature IMHO. http://www.macrumors.com/2016/02/17/cook-open-letter-backdoor-fbi-san-bernardino/ Thanks Apple...

Hi A friend of mine tried to purchase an app for the first time. Which didn't work because she doesn't remember one of the two security answers she has to fill in. Therefore she is also unable to change her security questions and password. Which steps does she need to undertake to solve this...

Yikes! Bought a new MacBook Pro in December 2015 – 13", 128GB. Updated all the software. Running El Capitan 10.11.2. When I boot up by pressing the power button (or key) I see an icon (red lipstick) and my name and underneath that is the password entry line, and underneath that I see "Restart"...

Is there a way to change the iCloud app password on an iPad when the online password has been changed? RESOLVED: Apparently, if you wait long enough, and have something other than watching your iPad to do, it will eventually filter through the system and automagically work. I left it...
