Passwords are great.\u00c2\u00a0 Well, most of the time\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n
In CheckBook Pro<\/a> (and its little brother CheckBook<\/a>), passwords serve as a casual deterrent to help protect your personal Account information from prying eyes.\u00c2\u00a0 But…sometimes passwords can be more trouble than they’re worth.\u00c2\u00a0 Like when you’re trying to get into the application and the password you’re typing in just doesn’t seem to take.\u00c2\u00a0 Well, there are a couple of things to remember when this happens:<\/p>\n First off, since CheckBook Pro’s passwords are cAsE-SeNSItIvE, you’ll need to be very sure you’re typing in the exact case as when you created the password.\u00c2\u00a0 So, capitalize what’s necessary and leave the rest in lowercase.\u00c2\u00a0 Now, this is where that pesky Caps Lock key on your keyboard can be your worst enemy.\u00c2\u00a0 Get in the habit of looking for that little dot of green light on the Caps Lock key each time you go to type your password into CheckBook Pro.\u00c2\u00a0 That way NOT EVERYTHING GETS CAPITALIZED \ud83d\ude42 .<\/p>\n Actually, if you find that your memory isn’t what it used to be, why not try forgetting about the passwords altogether?\u00c2\u00a0 After all, they’re completely optional. \u00c2\u00a0 So the option is waved alluringly in front of your face when you open up CheckBook Pro for the first time – don’t feel obligated to fill in those fields.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s perfectly respectable to rely on your Mac’s password to protect your CheckBook Pro Accounts data.\u00c2\u00a0 Just make sure your Mac isn’t setup to login automatically<\/a> and that it requires a password when unattended<\/a>.<\/p>\n To remove an unwanted Account password in CheckBook Pro, click on the Account menu at the top of the screen.\u00c2\u00a0 Next, choose ‘Edit Account\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6’ from the list of options.\u00c2\u00a0 A sheet with several options will appear.\u00c2\u00a0 Clear the black dots from the fields labeled ‘Optional Password’ and ‘Re-type Password’.\u00c2\u00a0 Hit OK and the password will be gone forever.<\/p>\n Good luck and enjoy CheckBook Pro<\/a> with or without a password!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Passwords are great.\u00c2\u00a0 Well, most of the time\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 In CheckBook Pro (and its little brother CheckBook), passwords serve as a casual deterrent to help protect your personal Account information from prying eyes.\u00c2\u00a0 But…sometimes passwords can be more trouble than they’re … Continue reading
