Accidentally Disabled Account & Can't Get It Back

Wondering if anyone has any ideas on this...
I accidentally disabled (by un-checking the box that says enable account) one of my Mobile Accounts in Workgroup Manager while that Mobile Account was logged in. Not knowing this yet... the next day I went to use that Mobile Account and I could not unlock it from it's screensaver with the username/password that would normally work. I unlocked it with the local administrator account that is also set up on that workstation and restarted. Once the machine restarted and the login window appeared the Mobile Account was not listed like it normally had been. This is when I checked Workgroup Manager on my server and noticed that I had accidentally disabled the account. I re-enabled the account (by checking the box that says enable account) and clicked the save button. I then went back to the client workstation and attempted to login, but was unsuccessful. I've tried restarting the computer various time, changing the home directory path in Workgroup Manager from "Home" to "None & then back again without any change. The login icon does not appear on the login screen on the client workstation and clicking on other and typing in the username/password does not work. I have even tried the shortname instead. I've logged into the Local Administrator account on the workstation and checked the users folder... the home directory is still there. The workstation is still talking to the sever as I've checked directory utility and the network settings... everything is the same.
Does anyone know how I can get this account working again, am I missing something?
Thanks for any help you can give!!

Hello there.
I accidentally... Permanently Deleted the program Safari from my computer using a program called "Shredder."
Then, halfway through this i'm like: "Wait... Wh... AHH!"  -  Then I stopped it...
And so the program was corrupted.
Now whenever I launch Safari, it justs stands there jumping on my dock not opening or anything.
I tried to do "Software Update..." From the Apple Menu, but it said my computer was up to date.
I looked it up on the App Store, and it showed nothing.
I googled it, it just showed a "soft32" windows version of Safari. I couldn't get it.
Then I come to the apple website, I see Safari extensions, it says I need safari, I try and download it, but it just brings me to a page called "What is Safari?"
-Which has no download button anywhere.
Where can I reinstall or get it or something!?!?
Shredder is a terrible and destructive program to run on your Mac. Backup, hold down Command+R and reinstall your system using the Apple ID you originally bought it with.

    Yea, sorry.  For the future, you might want to try one of the apps in the app store that will create backups of your contacts, such as My Contacts Backup.

  • Java has been disabled, how can I get it back?

    Java has been disabled, how can I get it back? It seems that Apple has decided that Java has two many security problems and has disabled it. I need Java to run GeoGebra. What can I do? I tried downloading the latest update from Oracle JRE-7u13.

  • I accidentally closed pages - can I get them back?

    I just closed all the open pages on my ipad....
    didn't realise my son had been working on two of them - can I get them back?

    What Pages are you talking about? The documents in the Pages app? if thats what you mean, just launch the Pages app again and navigate to Documents and pick the one that you want to work on from that view.
    If you mean web pages, tap the book icon and the tap the arrow at the top of the bookmark window until you come to History. Tap History to see all of the recently viewed web pages.

  • Deleted calendar on AppleID account - can I get it back?

    Hi,
    I accidentally deleted my calendar from my iPhone 4S. This calendar was on my AppleID account. It was not synced to iCloud. I don't have the backup to restore from, because as soon as I plugged in my iPhone to do the restore, it created a new backup that over-wrote the old one (why does it do this?!).
    Is there any way I can access this calendar? Can I get to it somehow by logging into my Apple ID on a computer? Surely the data is in some kind of deleted but recoverable form on my iPhone? I have seen there is a 3rd party software app called Mr. Fone by Wondershare that might do it, but it costs about £40.
    Please help, I am lost without my calendar
    Louise

    No.  If it wan't backed up or synced with iCloud or a calendar on your computer, it's gone.

  • W530/Realtek HD Audio - Disabled Microphone, Can't Get it Back

    I accidentally disabled the built-in microphone in Control Panel/Sound/Recording/Microphone Properties. Now it's gone entirely, and I can't figure out how to get it back. I checked the BIOS/security/I/O Port Access/Microphone setting, but it's still enabled there. What should I do? Related question -- Is there a similar place to disable (and re-enable!) the built-in camera? -- JCW2
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Those should stay. They will disappear in Device Manager if you disable in BIOS though.

  • [SOLVED]Installed XFCE, now have a disabled display, can't get it back

    First thing I tried to do after installing XFCE was change the screen res to match my monitor. The display dialog had two screens showing - one labeled 'laptop', and the other 'Viewsonic bla'. As this is not a laptop, and my screen is indeed the Viewsonic bla, I unchecked the 'Use this display' option next to 'Laptop'.
    My screen then went black, and will not come back. There was no countdown 'Do you want to keep these settings' dialog, although I guess there might have been (the screen was blank) and possibly I accidentally told it 'yes' in my blind flailings. What I meant to do was press Esc, but I may have pressed some button previously that activated a 'Yes' option. Or maybe there is no double-check dialog at all! Either way, I can't get XFCE to show up any more. Rebooting the machine doesn't work - the screen just shuts down saying 'No signal'
    To fix this I've decided to reinstall XFCE. Is it enough to just run pacman -S xfce4 again, or is there another command line option to do a reinstall? Also, what about config files? I can see no dot files or directories in my home folder that could be XFCE related. Thanks.

    On my machine, there are XFCE related settings stored in ~/.config/xfce4 and ~/.config/xfce4-session etc

  • I accidentally erased music somehow from my itunes library, how can i get it back?

    i accidentally erased music somehow from my itunes library, how can i get it back?  I'm not sure how I did it, but I do know something has been wierd ever since.  i remember using it and arranging songs, and then, bing!  Songs were missing.  Please help! 
    Not quite sure what info you need to answer this.   I dont have all my music synced to icloud unfortunately...at least not that i'm aware of.

    You either have an incredibly complex computer setup or I think you are confusing terminology here.  If you have iTunes set to share your library with others in your iTunes preferences then other computers in the area will see it as an item when they are running their iTunes and have it set to check for shared libraries.  Your husband is probably seeing this when running iTunes on his computer.  You can disable this sharing on your computer and/or he can set his not to pick up shared libraries.
    By the way, an iTunes account is something you log into when you want to buy something from Apple.  On your computer it is simply your iTunes collection or your iTunes application.  So you need to turn off sharing in your iTunes application preferences.
    Your husband is seeing "his" iTunes collection when running iTunes, but it is possible he doesn't have anything in it if it is a brand new computer.

    Is the iPod still singed into the account isn Settings>iTunes and App Stores and SettingsZ>iCloudl? If it is then I would not be concerned.
    Also see:

    For the other "problem", go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says Prevent iPod....automatically syncing.
