Authentication doesn't work after SL upgrade

Hi,
This week I finally decided to upgrade my Mac Mini from Leopard to Snow Leopard, but it seems something went wrong. The authentication prompt that asks you to submit user account and password whenever you want to install stuff is not showing up anymore. Installation processes terminate without any notice and updates don't work with the message 'Failed to authenticate'. I've tried to edit my user preferences, but the Users pane is locked, so I can't do anything to change it.
Could someone help out?
Thanks,
Martijn

Ah, thanks to the tags I came to this item. It seems to do the trick...
Move along now, nothing to see here... :-)

  • Why the wifi doesn't work after the upgrade to iOS 5?

    The problem is that after the upgrade to iOS 5 the wifi doesn't work. I mean, iPad is connected to the wifi but not to the internet and also the connection on the other device doesn't work. So I had to turn off the router and then turn it on.

    Try a hard reset first to see if that does any good.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If no luck with that, you'll need to manually connect your iPod to your iTUnes library in recovery mode using the instructions in the Apple support document below. Doing so will allow you to bypass the passcode and restore the iPod.

  • Printing PDDoc with AFExecuteThisScript() doesn't work after an upgrade from SDK 5 to SDK8

    Hello,
    I have made an upgrade of my plug-in which was developed with the Acrobat 5 SDK. I upgrade it to Acrobat 8 SDK and my print function doesn't work anymore.
    Actually I print my document using a javascript trusted function instead the function provided by the C++ library for internal reason.
    Here below is the code used to print my document :
    char szJavaPrint[6000];
    sprintf(szJavaPrint,
    "pp = this.getPrintParams(); \r\n"
    // fill pp with parameters
    "pp.interactive = pp.constants.interactionLevel.silent; \r\n"
    "\r\n"
    "this.trustedPrint(this, pp);"
    PDDoc pdDoc = AVDocGetPDDoc(avDoc);
    AFExecuteThisScript(pdDoc, szJavaPrint, NULL);
    It was working with the Acrobat 5 SDK but the print seems to have no effect using the Acrobat 8 SDK. I know that there is a change between Acrobat 5 and 8 concerning the Character Set (currently I set the Character Set to "Not Set" in the Configuration Properties of the project) but I don't think that my problem comes from the Character Set.
    All ideas to resolve this problem are welcome.
    Kind regards,
    Joe

    See what happens if you remove the "setting of interactive to silent"...
    There is a restriction on silent printing in Acrobat, but I would not have expected that to be passed into this method - but it could have been overlooked and be a bug.
    Also, I don't recall a trustedPrint() method in Acrobat JS - check the documentation for the correct name of this function...

  • E-mail notification doesn't work after software upgrade

    Based on the recommendation of a sales rep; I did the software upgrade yesterday and have had nothing but problems.  All the e-mail accounts didn't work.  So I spent an hour getting my e-mails setup and guess what?
    Even though I have it setup to check every 10 minutes; it doesn't work.  I have to manually go to each account and click on the 2 arrows to check.  I used to get a flashing blue light on my phone when I had a new e-mail; now I don't.
    What's going on???????????????

    Hi diaddin_h
    Welcome to BlackBerry Support Forums
    Which Device do you have ? I think your Update process was not successful. Which method you tried to update your device software ,is it by Desktop Software or Over the Air Update ? 
    Now As your device is not recognized so you have to use the Application Loader to force the detection of your device and load the OS back.But remember in this process you will loose all data within your device .I hope you have your device Backup or if you are using BlackBerry Protect you can restore it later on .Please follow this Knowledge Base  for further Instructions :

  • Satellite L300 - webcam doesn't work after BIOS upgrade

    I recently upgraded BIOS to 2.2 and the webcam has stopped working. It disappeared and there is one unknown device in the device manager in the universal serial bus controller.
    I tried everything even with new clean fresh Vista OS but nothing like there is no webcam I installed the drivers but not recognized so I would like if I can to downgrade BIOS to 1.5 and to fix the webcam. If I can cos I need it. Is that possible?
    Tnx

    Hi
    I dont think its BIOS issue.
    First of all the unknown device (webcam) appears in the device manager and this means that an device has been recognized by system and BIOS.
    The only reason why its listed as unknown devices is: the driver is not installed properly.
    After BIOS update you have to set the BIOS back to default. Access BIOS pressing F2 and within the BIOS you can use the button F9 to set it to default and F10 to save the changes.
    After that you should boot up the unit and should go to device manager.
    Mark the unknown device and delete it from the list (if possible)
    Go to control panel -> software and check the software list for webcam software (from chicony). Uninstall this software if its part of the list.
    Now reboot the notebook.
    Clean the OS using CCleaner and install the correct webcam software for Vista. Note: please pay attention to 32bit or 64bit version.
    If the installation would fail, try the Toshiba recovery disk and set the notebook back to factory settings.
    By the way: BIOS downgrade is not possible because the old BIOS is not downloadable.

  • HT4362 How do I fix my Apple TV, it doesn't work after 2013 upgrade. I only have a blinking white light . What is bricking?

    How do i fix my Apple TV after the sept 2013 upgrade?  Can I get it back to the way it was?  I shouldn't have to buy a USB cord for it apple did this to my applet tv not me!

    No you shouldn't have to buy a USB to microUSB cable I agree, it should have been in the box.
    Unfortunately though that's what you need.
    Personally I would take it to a nearby Apple store, if you don;t have one contact support and complain.

  • Stand-by button on Cinema HD display doesn't work after Mountain Lion upgrade

    Hi,
    After I upgraded my Mac mini (spring '09) to Mountain Lion it appears that the buttons on the side of my Cinema HD display doesn't work.

    Does anyone have similar experience. Anyway to fix it?
