HT202233 If I made the mobile account for a network user, can this user unlock the FileVault2-disk?

My Mac is connected to Microsoft Active Directory. Every time I schould unlock the disk with the local admin, then login as network user.
If I made the mobile account for a network user, can this user unlock the FileVault2-disk?
Thanks.

Yes, but the FileVault password won't be updated automatically if the login password changes.

Help-I want to move my stuff out of admin user account to a non-admin user account for security. How can this be done?

So... I have amassed loads of documents, videos, music, photos, etc. onto my MacBook Pro all under the admin user account I set up for myself. I am the only one who uses the MacBook. I now work virtually and am online at different free wifi spots, and I want to access all of my stuff under a non-admin user account for security reasons.
I attempted to uncheck the "allow this user to administer this computer" box under my admin user account, but it is greyed out and I cannot.
Is there an easier way to fix this than backing up all of my stuff and then moving it to a non-admin account?

There is only one solution: create a new Standard user account and set it as your auto login account, if you use that feature.
Using what you describe is mostly a false sense of security. Were someone to hack into the computer they could hack into the standard account, so you would not wish to keep any sensitive data in that account. Other things to consider:
Turn on your Firewall in Security & Privacy preference panel.
Use software to mask your online presence such as ProxyCap 2.03, MacProxy, Proxifier, or Hotspot Shield.

Crash when opening Mobile account for the first time

I have some issue with my client mobile account I have set up on theMacMini server and on the MacBook Pro client. Actually I was never able to open completely the mobile account on the client (i.e. it crashes after synchronization between client & server and prior opening the account: it freezes on the "sky&stars" screen).
First of all, I created the (empty) mobile account on the server and then on the client (also empty).
Next, I copied my local account on the client to the mobile account on the client.
Following step was the synchronization between both mobile accounts - and here I'm.
Some details:
local account: Paul-admin - home directory: Paul
mobile account on the client: PaulM - home directory: palm
mobile account on the server: PaulM - home directory: palm
To make a copy of the local account to the mobile one (both on the client machine) via Terminal:
cp -r /users/Paul/ /Users/palm/
To correct the permissions:
chown -R PaulM /Users/palm
Have I missed anything or did I something wrong ?

Some discovered complementary information:
This "freeze" happens only when the client MBP is connected to the server via my LAN. If I disconnect the client, I can open the mobile account without any issue. Also, this mobile account is under parental control, even if I didn't specify this parameter in any server menu and when I change it on the client, it comes back after the synchronisation. Any idea ?

Lion Server Mobile accounts for Macbook users

Hi All,
I'm looking for a 'Best Practice' when setting up mobile accounts for Macbook users who just want to be able to use their machine away from the office.
We DON'T want to sync anything, just create a mobile account on the Mac (a bit like a domain profile on a PC).
I understand that this can be configured through workgroup manager in preferences for either the machine or the user account.
What should the mobility settings be set to? Obviously the Account creation box is ticked but what should the 'Create home using' settings be ?
Thanks Trappers

I figured out how to delete the user from the command line.
I used Remote Desktop to send as Root: dscl . -delete /Users/userID
Where userID is the user's shortname.
You could also log in locally and use the terminal to send:
sudo dscl . -delete /Users/userID

Where is the MailAccounts.plist stored for a network user account using Apple Mail on Snow Lion?

Where is the MailAccounts.plist file stored for a network user using Apple Mail on Snow Leopard? It appears one of my users has managed to do something to their mail account as Apple Mail will no longer close once opened and the Sent Folder has a perpetual spinning pinwheel.

They would have to be logged in as separate users in order not to see your account in Mail. Whatever accounts put in Mail under your account will show up. All mail accounts usually have there own user and password. The only thing you can do is to remove the password from Keychain and take the account offline so you don't keep getting prompts for passwords each time it checks for mail.
Not a great solution.
Best way is to give the other user their own user account with their own mail and enable fast user swithcing to log between the different users if all access the computer frequently.

Cisco WLC 5508 with 3702APs - mobile hotspot for 2000 Guest users

Cisco WLC 5508 with 3702APs - mobile hotspot for 2000 Guest users
I've been given a fantastic "opportunity" by my boss to use our existing wireless infrastructure to provide internet access to potentially upto 2000 VIP guests arriving with BYOD devices, in a very densely populated area for a 3 day event. We are talking an area of approx 200m x 15m. Think of it as an awards ceremony/concert. The solution will also be mobile so we will be using internet breakout from different telcos as it will move to approx 20 countries. The area is also incredibly densely populated with other wifi APs. I did a brief site survey and AirMagnet could detect over 2500 other 'rogue' APs from where I was stood! I hope CleanAir works!
We need a simple authentication method for them to connect with zero admin from our side. We don't want to just offer up a rolling daily PSK as that's a bit amateur and we don't really want the VIP guests sharing the PSK with others during their stay. Ideally they could self-provision by providing an email address.
I know the WLC can handle webauth for local users but I don't think it scales very well. ie I don't think I can offer the account to several hundred people.
Cisco ISE looks a very expansive (and expensive) product but I don't think we need all it's capabilities (do I?). It would be nice to just ask a potential user for their email address and grant them access and email them next year. I've seen Cisco NAC but that looks over the top too for just guest users who will only be accessing a shared internet connection.
I've seen 3rd party supposed software solutions from Kiosk Antamedia etc do they work with Cisco Enterprise WLC solutions?
We'd like to limit users to a certain (low) bandwidth and block (say) torrent traffic to keep the general user experience worthwhile.
Does anybody have any case study documents or experience of such a project? As well as the authentication it's how well the APs will handle the dense potential number of clients trying to connect in such a confined space.
Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated from the knowledgeable community.
Cheers,
Mike

Hi Rasika,
We are having WLC 5508 model with software version running 7.4.121.0. AP Models are AIR-CAP2602I.
Normally our WAN links are good even while the issue pertains. We are connected to remote offices over ipsec site to site vpn for WAN. The link latency in WLC between the AP and the controller shows <1ms.
currently the Guest network is using WPA2-PSK auth given in the controller. we are trying to find a option to make the Guest wireless auth local to the office, and see if this solves the problem.
any suggestions,
Thank you,
Arjun

I'm curious if anyone can verify if this issue has been fixed or still remains? Also, I'm curious as to which stores are being used, as this is important in knowing where the corrupted index lays.

hello, friend.
are you using LE-Transportation? if yes, there are some helpful t-codes such as VI11 and VI12. you may also use t-code SQVI for queries, but you would have to know what tables to look for.
hope this helped even if a bit. reward, even a little if yes.
thanks and regards.

Design and Web Premium creates huge profile for each network user.

Just wondering how I can get around the Adobe Design and Web Premium creating a huge profile for each network user. When a new user logs in on the network a 6 GB Adobe Design and Web Premium folder is created in their profile. With dozens of students logging into each machine that equals dozens of 6GB folders.

Is there a way to see what applications is using my mobile account for internet instead of using BIS?

HI
Is there a way or a app to download to see what applications is using my mobile account/airtime instead of using the BIS service? The reason for asking is that my airtime is being used on its own, without my knowledge. Please assist.

so if we do have the same apple id is it possible to delete if from any of the other devices or any where I can just unactivate them from my apple id account to where it would delete the message if they happened to get it?

Do I have to create a new account for my iPhone, or can I use my iPod Touch account?

I have an iPod Touch 32GB which I have an iTunes account for, & I need to know whether I have to create a new iTunes account for my new iPhone 4 16GB, or whether I can use the other one for. Would syncing cause problems?

You don't need another iTunes account for your iPhone. You can link as many iDevices to your account as you wish. Each device will have its own name/identity and you can sync different apps/music/media to each.

HT204053 cannot sync calendar on my new ipad mini. my mac and macbook use a .me account for iCloud. How can I change this?

I cannot sync calendar on new ipad mini. My mac desktop and mac book have an old .me icloud account name. Cannot change that so how do I sync?

If you had a passcode set on your iPad your data should be safe. The thief would have to force it into recovery mode and restore it in order to use it, which would completely erase it.
This shouldn't keep your daughter's device from accessing the iCloud account however. If you can no longer sign into the account on iCloud.com from your computer, contact Apple support for assistance.
