The new user I created can't access YouTube.

I created a new user on my MacBook Pro. This new user appears to be blocked from accessing certain websites, namely YouTube. I have verified that the new user does have the ability to access any website under Parental Controls. The strange part is that while logged on as administrator, these sites are not blocked. Any suggestions?

Only just seen this, I'm in the UK so your original post was at 11 pm UK time
As Demo says, when you use home sharing you need to use the same account on both your computer's iTunes (via the File > Home Sharing menu option), and on your iPad via Settings > Music > Home Sharing . If both the iPad and computer are connected to the same wifi network, and iTunes is open on your computer, you should then get a 'Shared' option under the More button at the bottom of the Music app :
What have you managed to do so far ? Have you enabled home sharing on your computer's iTunes via the File drop-down menu, and if so which account have you used, the old or the new one ? The same account then needs to be used on the iPad as that is what will link them together.
If you can't remember the password for your old account then you might be able to get it reset via this page : http://iforgot.apple.com

Hello, Martolini.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
The most common resolution for this issue would be to make sure Safari has been update. If the issue persists, try all of the steps referencing to Mac OS X in the two articles below.

HT2518 I've migrated from PC to IMAC, but it has created new users. I can't access these user accounts even though I've set up passwords for them as administrator. Can you assist?

I have transferred files from PC to IMac using Migration assistant. This has automatically set-up new users on the IMac and I can't access these. As administrator, I have set-up passwords for these new users, but when i try to acces these new users usung those passwords, the screen shakes as if the passwords are incorrect. Any suggestions?

I don't do Windoze, so haven't been able to test migrating from a PC.
There have been a few similar posts here. Are you trying to log on to the new user account(s) via Fast User Switching? If so, apparently that doesn't work. You need to turn that off (via System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Options. Remove the check from the Show fast user switching .... box.
Then log out of all accounts, restart, select the new account from the login screen and you should be prompted to set the password.
I'm not sure a screenshot will help (and to be honest I'm not sure how to do screenshots on the IMac - I've been a PC man for over a decade!).
In most places, Shift+Cmd+3 will print the entire screen; Shift+Cmd+4 will produce a "target" you can drag over a portion of the screen.
EDIT: by "most places" I mean after you're logged-on, and OSX knows your preferences about how & where to put the screenshot. So it won't work on the login screen itself.

Thanks
AsgarIf you are going to work with EM (dbcontrol) in this manner -- with multiple databases -- you have to configure a separate instance of dbcontrol for each database. A given instance of dbcontrol can work with only one database instance. The distinction in accessing the dbcontrol is that each one will have its own port.

I had an iPhone 3G and the screen fell out. I got a new iPhone and new number. Now I cant delete pictures from the new phone beause I can't access the old account.

I just want to get access to the old account to delete some photos. I dont remember my old number!!

Changing devices is no reason to create a new Apple ID.
All content purchased from iTunes is permanently linked to the Apple ID it was purchased with.
To update apps purchased with the old ID, you MUST sign in with that Apple ID.

How to delete the new user added while install maverick

That may be because you are logged into the new user.
In any case, this support article should help...

Why is a new user account created every time I upload files from my old PC. Can't you just use the same user account all the time?

I'm a new Mac user and am finding my way slowly around it. One question: why is a new user account created every time I upload files from my old PC?

Because you're using the Migration Assistant, and it can't migrate data to an existing user account. Transfer everything at once or use a different method.

Migration from PC with MA did not end. Had to shut down MacBookPro. After restart no new user was created. Can't find the transferred data (35 GB). Would like to delete it.

iTunes is required to initially activate the phone. Back when the iPhone 3G was sold, you would take it out of the box and see a "Connect to iTunes" screen. She HAD to connect to a computer in order to begin using the phone. Does she remember what computer this was?

After creating a new user account, how do I move my files into the new user?

I have an issue where my 'Desktop/Screensaver' prefs seem to be corrupt somehow. When I click on that icon in System Preferences, it stalls and I get the spinning ball, thus resulting in a force quit. After reading a Mac Format magazine where someone wrote in with a similar issue, they said to trash various prefs (did that and made no difference) and if that didn't work, try creating a New User account (therefore creating brand new system prefs) and move your stuff over.
Well, I've created the New User account, but I can't figure out how to move/copy my stuff into the user folders. After copying and attempting to move stuff in, I see folders with a red circle with a white line through it (like a 'no entry' sign).
Any clue as to how this can be done? All I'm trying to do is to reinstate the system prefs so they are not corrupt anymore on my log-in.

No. Not the main Library folder. Make absolutely sure you are in the Home Library folder and not the main Library folder.
Your Home Library folder is hidden in Lion. To get to it, in the Finder menu, select GO and hold the option key down. Select Library in the submenu. The Finder window will open in your Home Library. This is where your user prefs are stored.
Once there, you will see the Preferences folder. Open it up, select all items within it and move them to the trash. You will need to restart in order for the new Finder preferences to be recreated.
Once you restart, then you will be back to the default preferences to the system and all applications. And yes, it will affect all settings including your Dock, just as logging into a new user. You will have to reset everything there also.
If you wish to do a selective method, instead of deleting all preferences, try deleting the one associated with your problem. Screen saver problems should be affected by the system preferences, so try deleting this:
com.apple.systempreferences.plist
com.apple.systempreferences.plist.lockfile
Note that when you delete system file preferences, a restart will be required. For applications, just quit the application before trashing preference files.

HT3231 I ended up having to create a new user name because the migration assistant wouldn't let me put the data back onto my original user name. I now have to log into the new user name to see all my data, apps, photographs etc. What went wrong?

I have a Mac that was part of the recall involved with the faulty Seagate hard drives. The folks at the Apple Store near me changed the hard drive early December, 2012. I had my data, etc. all backed up on a portable hard drive. When the Mac was returned with the new hard drive, I used the Migration Assistant to bring everything back over. Trouble was, it wouldn't let me bring it over to my original user name. I was forced to create a new user name that became the place where everything was restored. I can't see any data on my old user name, just the basics. Everything is on the new user name but I wish I didn't have it (just want everything back the way it was originally). Any suggestions?

Probably the cleanest thing to do is to erase and freshly install the operating system on the new drive. Then, on the first boot up, don't create a new user, instead select the option in Setup Assistant to immediately bring things over from your backup, which you must connect via USB or firewire. Setup Assistant will then recretae your old user to look just like it used to.
Before doing this, make sure you realize you will lose everything on the new drive by erasing it, and make sure your backup is still viable.

While starting my iMac after new hard drive installed, I created a admin user, I then pulled over a backup from an external hard drive that brought over the previous admin user settings. Need to merge to old user with the new user

I had to replace the hard drive in my iMac. Upon initial start up, I created a admin user name and password. Then I connected a WD external hard drive that had a back up of my orginal HD. Upon running Migration Assistant and pulling over the back up I found it pulled over the ORIGINAL user & security information from the original hard drive. In order to see iPhoto or iTunes libraies I must sign on to the "Old" user.
I want to Merge old and new users into only 1 user or delete the original user however need to have the iPhoto/iTunes libraies accessable by the "New" user.

Your best bet is to start over, by restoring your entire system to the exact condition it was in. Otherwise, the transferred user account probably won't have permission to its backups. See the pink box in Problems after using Migration Assistant for an explanation.
See Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #14 for details on how to do the restore.

I created a new library so I can use it for just my music, but now my ipod will only sync to my old library and not the new one I created, even though I'm in the new library when I open itunes. Any solutions?

I created a new library so I can use it for just my music, but now my ipod will only sync to my old library and not the new one I created, even though I'm in the new library when I open itunes. Any solutions?

The point is that there are four i product users for one computer in my house, and not everyone wants the same music on their device. Like I said before, the ipod is not syncing to the new library even though I plug it in when the new itunes library is pulled up. It keeps syncing to the old library...

I'm trying to send a pages document as an email attachment to pc users. They can't access the document. When I try go to the "file" menu, there is no "save as" option.

Hi Shelly,
Command-P (Print)
In the Print dialogue, click the PDF button at lower left, choose Mail PDF
The result should be a new email document with the pdf file attached.
Address and send.
The procedure applies to any document which may be printed, not just Pages documents.

I created a new Apple ID, but can't access iTunes

I created a new Apple ID, but can't access iTunes, it doesn't recognize my ID

Creating a new Apple ID isn't the way to fix that problem. All that will do is create a new Apple ID with no record of your previous purchase history or anything else related to iCloud.

Creating the new User in Dashboard

How to create the new user BI Presentation services. Right now we have only Administration user available.

You have to create the new user in RPD. From the manage Menu Select Security.
Security Manager window will open.
Select user from the left pane.
In the right pane of the window Right Click & select New User.
A User window will open. Here you can give username,Description & password.
You can also give the Privileges to the Group membership also.
Hope this will clear.

The new user I created can't access YouTube.
