• Try to disconnect from the iCloud on my Macbook Air (El Capitan 10.11.2) but in system preferences, it says I have to create a new password for my Admin account - and then the new password I get says "password does not match"?

  I am trying to add my outlook email account to the Mail app, but because it's the same email for my iCloud, for some reason, they are linked, and I discovered that I need to disconnect from iCloud, and then add the outlook account.

  But when I try to disconnect from the iCloud in system preferences > accounts on the internet, it says I have to create a separate password - but when I get one it says "passwords do not match"? I tried to do different and same, nothings working: S

  The dialog box is like this:

  [Stop using iCloud?]

  Create separate password for (name of the admin account)

  -You will no longer be able to log in or unlock your screen with your icloud password, and you will need to remember two passwords separately.

  iCloud password: __________

  New password: __________

  Check: _

  Index of password: __________

  [Use the separate password?]

  Not sure why that is, that the password does not when it's supposed to be the new s password?

  Also, I would like to know what to put in the box check?

  Help much appreciated!

  Thank you

• Why can't unlock my computer with the password

  I can't get my computer unlocked the password and when I put my password I get this message. the user profile Service service has no log that user profile cannot be loaded... ideals why?

  Hello

  You can try the following.

  Shut down the PC.  Tap away at f8 that you start the PC to enter the Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select Safe mode and press ENTER.  If windows will load in this mode, on the Start Menu, click principally made programs, click Accessories, click System Tools and run the system restore.  Choose a restore point at least 24 hours prior to the issue of logon and then proceed to the restoration.  When you are finished, Windows will restart as normal in order to check if you can now connect correctly.

  Another option if the above does not help is as follows.

  Shut down the PC.  Tap away at f8 that you start the PC to enter the Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select "Start using last good known Configuration" and press ENTER.

• I can't connect to Windows Vista. Only 1 user account. Tried Safe Mode. No luck. How can I unlock and find my admin password

  Ideas:

  • Vista; Open a session cannot connect
  • None
  • The Point System Restore, Safe Mode, tried to find the file corrupted mode safe "regedit." She appears when in safe mode when I delete the information and I restart the computer, it reappears, so it is not deleted

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Hello

  Try this - use the hidden administrator account to lower your user account (to the lowest level) APPLY/OK
  then go back and reset it to the Admin APPLY/OK - this clearly allows corruption. Do this several times.
  Then fix the password in your usual account. Do not forget to leave your account administrator if you
  wish.

  Make another Admin account with your password and use it to fix the others if necessary. (just for
  repair, don't use regular account, not a safety valve) always keep a spare ADMIN account.

  DO NOT LEAVE THE ENABLED LSA OR USE DAILY. If it corrupts you are toast!

• Erased all messages in my Inbox except 1 that I can't remove. ERR mess says disk is full, but I can't compact bec he told one another process is running

  An old message is stuck in my Inbox. No matter what I do it not delete and I can no longer receive email on this computer because I get this message: there is not enough disk space to download new messages. Try to delete old messages, empty the deleted folder and compacting of your e-mail folders, and then try again. I erased my delete and send files and greatly reduced my folders, but the same situation applies. I tried to compact manually, but then I get the message that it can not compact as another process is running. However, on my iphone, or on another computer, I can still get an email update.

  try to take the file offline Thunderbird (Alt + F) menu > offline > workoffline
  Close Thunderbird
  Restart your computer
  Restart Thunderbird and try compacting while Thunderbird is still offline.

• El Capitan loaded on my external hard drive disturbed my system preferences Maverick on my drive internal

  I currently use the most recent version of Maverick from an internal hard drive on my iMac. I needed to download the demo of Final Cut Pro X or under of El Capitan Yosemite and due to a limitation of version of FCPX. As I had an another Maverick boot on an external drive, I've decided to upgrade this drive to El Capitan. A few hours after the installation was successful, and I was able to download the trial of FCPX. So I planted my system and restarted with my boot Maverick my internal drive. So far so good, however, to my surprise, I can't the system preferences window because it gives me the following message appears "Unable to open the preferences system because of a problem.". Similarly, I get the same message when I load a DVD and the DVD player will automatically load.

  I need to go to my applications and open the program individual (Preferences system and DVD player to do what I want to accomplish.

  I restored tOSX recovery Mignot, but nothing has changed. I believe that El Capitan installation on another drive has created conflicts.

  I also discovered that my backup should be completely redone (i.e. backup lull in my go 530)... beautiful!

  Someone has a similar problem?

  If I can't solve this problem, I have to install El Capitan on my internal drive and maybe the problem will be solved.

  I would eject the external hard drive with the installation of El Capitan and see if it helps.

  FWIW, I have never known or seen reported when an installation on an external drive also changed the preferences on the internal drive.

  I suggest that you eliminate problems in your user folder by checking in the comments or in a new user.

  CREATE A NEW USER

  Go to system-> Preferences, create a new user in users and groups.

  Place in the new user by logging in under the Apple in the menu bar.

  Log in to the new user.

  You can ignore connect them with one identifier Apple. Hit continue and then jump.

  Only applications Apple will be on the dock.

  Go to Applications to open other applications.

  You still see the issue?

  If Yes, then the problem is with your core files.

  If not, then the problem is in your user folder.

  You have the time Machine and internal backups of your disk clone?

• Does not open the system preferences of the Apple menu

  Anyone know of a good solution for this?

  A few weeks ago I started noticing that I couldn't open my application system preferences in the Apple Menu bar (via the Apple logo > system, or via the WiFi icon Preferences > network, or even Preferences by right-clicking on the desktop to change the desktop background, etc.).

  WHAT WORKS:

  I can open the system preferences if I click directly on the application icon or you try to open it from the dock.

  I can open the app in the Apple menu if I register as another user.

  WHAT DOES NOT WORK:

  The problem does not go away when I restart in mode 'start '.

  The problem does not go away when I run disk utility.

  The problem does not go away when I remove the "Finder" and "System Preferences".plist file in the Preferences folder in the user's library.

  The problem does not go away when I remove the files "Preferences panel" bury of the Cache in the user's library folder.

  The problem does not go away when I zap the PRAM.

  The problem does not go far if I replace the system preferences application from a recent backup.

  I was about to just try and re-install the MacOS, but thought I would try the forums first, since the Apple Support site said that it should not be necessary if the problem is only limited to a user's profile. I found a lot of entries in the forums for this issue dated a few years ago and have tried most of the solutions, but I don't think that you can repair the permissions of the disc more on El Capitan.

  Anyone have any ideas? Thank you.

  Given all of the things you tried that don't work, over time it would take to troubleshoot more, you could restore OS X in 45 minutes to an hour on a broadband connection using OS X Recovery.

  Start your Mac while pressing the command + R keys. From there, you should be able to access the built in utility to verify and repair the disk from startup (if necessary) and OS X using OS X recoveryof restoration.

• Can not unlock Watch

  Just bought watch today.  Updated watch OS 2.1 and can not unlock look.  It says 'Device locked Unlock iPhone to use Apple Watch.'  My phone is not locked.  I never put a password on the watch.  I restarted the watch, it powered down and back up to anything will do.  Same thing with the phone.  Bluetooth of the phone is turned on and connected to the watch. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  Try to press the sleep/wake button on your iPhone to lock - and then unlock your iPhone by pressing the Home button and entering your password or contact ID.

  If this does not help, it can help to restart your iPhone and your watch in this way:

  -Put the two unit set off first;

  -To switch off your watch: press and hold the button side until you see the cursor off the power; slide it to turn off;

  -Restart your iPhone before restarting your watch;

  -To turn back on your watch: press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.

  "Your local network" is the computers that are on the same router as you. At home, this is your family.

  to: "computer name" is the name of the computer, they will see.

  Access is provided for items you decide to activate, usually file sharing. For sharing of files, ONLY the items that you specify in the file sharing dialog box details panel is accessible and be only users you EXPLICITLY list by username.
