I am new here but need some help. My sister decide to put a password on her macbook and forget the password. I searched online and found way to setup another account so I could then access the OS again. I then deleted the other account and it asked if I want to make image of the home directory what I said yes to.

The problem is when I try access the files on this it want her password what I dont know. Is there anyway to remove her password ? or sort this so I can get the data for her?

Any help would be much appreciated

I am running iTunes 10 on a Windows PC (Dual core 2.66GHZ, 4GB RAM, Windows XP Media Center). I have approximately 1.5TB in my media library. It has 2 AppleTVs (v1) attached over a wireless network (N). I have no content synced to the AppleTVs, I stream 100% from the PC.

Since I upgraded to iTunes 10, I am noticing that after we watch something new on the TV, iTunes and the AppleTV get into a 10-20 minute sync process which uses 100% of the CPU on my PC, rendering both it and the AppleTV useless for the duration.

I have a couple of questions, if anyone can help.

1. Anyone seen this before and has any ideas hoe to fix it?
2. What is being synced between the 2 devices considering I do not sync.

BTW, they way I have the AppleTVs set up is Manual Sync is enabled, and I have unchecked ALL the tabs, so nothing is actually selected for syncing. Before I upgraded I had the same setup and this did not happen.

Thanks in advance. This is quite frustrating.

I've set up things the way the Apple instructions indicate, and "Shared Photos" does not appear under the "Photos" menu on my AppleTV as expected. Here are the details:

--OS X 10.6.4
--AppleTV software 3.0.2
--iTunes 10.0
--iPhoto '09 8.1.2

Per the instructions, within iTunes I turned on Home Sharing. I then went to "Choose Photos to Share" and indicated the entire iPhoto library. I expected that a "Shared Photos" would appear under the "Photos" menu after those steps, but it didn't.

I un-paired my AppleTV from iTunes, and re-paired, still with no success. I also went into the iPhoto preferences to turn on sharing, though that seems a superfluous step to the Home Sharing option (and is a step not mentioned at all in the Apple instructions).

Is there something else I should be doing?

I have an Intel Based Mac Pro running on Leopard OS10.5.8.
Which web cam would you recommend that would best without any compatibility issues on it?
I plan to sign up for a Skype account, and would prefer the least amount of issues associated with web cams.

Any particular issues with LogicTech web-cams? What features should I look for?

Thanks in advance,

Lately while burning some songs the disk has not been verified. This is happening more often.
Some I was still able to use and some would ask for a different disk though all the disk were the same brand, etc.

Thanks in advance for all suggestions.
