How can I unlock my MacBook with my Apple Watch please?
I downloaded Sierra, set up the validation in two steps, put a password on my watch, but still there is no checkbox allow my watch to unlock my Mac in the Security Options in the preferences on one of my Macs. What else do I do it please?
I have exactly the same problem... After installation, the box was there on my MBPr2014, but he said that I need to enable two-factor authentication that I had two step configured auth.
So of course I went through the configuration 2FA effort, implemented on my iPhone, iPad and ensure delivery is set to watch with (already done for both) access code. All devices running the latest and greatest. Several boots of all devices and I am still unable to see the checkbox... It's as if it disappeared completely and the automatic login box. Went further to remove MBPr iCloud in the hope that when reconnect you it will appear that he re-tire list but nada devices...
meh... someone knows what else, to try?

M using a 38 mm iwatch sportsman. CNT connect bluthooth headset. It is to keep looking but no new showng device. What should I do?
Hello
Check that you have set your Bluetooth headset in discovery / pairing mode (refer to the manufacturer's instructions).
You will find that you must first disable pairing your headphones for your iPhone (or any other device that they can already be coupled to) until you can pair it with your watch.
Also, make sure that you follow the instructions here:
It can also help, when you try to pair your headset with your watch, to move the two devices in a different location (away from any other Bluetooth device can be active) and try again it.

Why sierra unlocking allowed to use the Apple Watch as a key?
I do not understand why they have restricted sierra unlock just the watch.
my iPhone is always in my shirt pocket and I unlock it with my fingerprint as I do with my ipad pro. The phone is used every day with apple pay so close communication is not a problem and so when my phone is close to my computer, my computer must unlock if I touch my finger on the button home...
It is such forgetfulness obvious it may just be an oversight by Apple and they must have a good reason for not providing this feature, and I would like to know what it is.
Maybe they're trying to get you to buy an iWatch

How can I keep my macbook pro closed with logic?
I have a Macbook Pro 2015 retina and a bolt of lightning 27 screen.
I use Logic Pro X
How can I keep the Macbook Pro closed on a stand? without opening it to activate the market every time I use it?
I've seen many people do.
And it will do no harm to Logic Pro?
Yes, you can continue to use your MBP as long as an external monitor, keyboard, mouse/trackpad are connected. No problem at all. Use it as usual. A lot of use do this every day. LPX will be fine. Just be sure to save your work before you leave, before switch to "standby" mode.

I was on facebook and remove an icon by using the right-click menu, but then all my photos and pictures of profile, could no longer be seen. I was able to view them in the browser, so it's something I've done in Firefox. How can I unlock a site?
If you select that right click menu context then you block all images from this area and not a specific image, so do not use that.
- Check exceptions in tools > Options > content: Load Images > Exceptions (for example sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net)
You can use the following steps to check if the images are blocked:
- Open the web page that has the missing images in a browser tab.
- Click the site favicon (How do I know if my connection to a Web site is secure?) on the left end of the address bar.
- Click on the "More information" button to open the "Page Info" with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "tools > Page Info").
- Go to the Media of the window tab "tools > Page Info.
- Select the first link of the image and scroll down through the list with the arrow down.
- If an image in the list is grayed out and there is a check mark in the box "block Images of..." and remove this mark to unlock the images from this area.
