Added a Standard Account but now can't access Admin Account

I had one account on my PowerBook and Acct#1 had Admin privileges. Then, to test Parental Controls, I added a Standard account, Acct#2. Then, I made Acct#2 Admin and Acct#1 I changed to Standard.
Now, when I start-up, I'm only presented with Acct#1 which is Standard. Can someone please help me with one of the following?
1) How do I make Admin Acct#2 appear for log-in?
2) How do I give Acct#1 Admin rights again?
Right now, all I see is my Standard Acct#1 and can't manage my system. I must get back to having an Admin account.
Thanks, Travis

  • My old laptop crashed, and took my iTunes account with it.  I got a new laptop, and want to sync my iTouch to my new iTunes account.  It gives me an error message stating that I can't sync to multiple iTunes accounts, but I can't access my old one!  Help!

    My old laptop crashed, and took my iTunes account with it.  I got a new laptop, and want to sync my iTouch to iTunes.  It gives me an error message stating that I can't sync to multiple iTunes accounts, but I can't access my old one! 
    How can I get my new iTunes account to allow me to Sync my iTouch?  The only option it gives me is to "transfer purchases" from my iTouch to iTunes, but that is only about 25% of my iTunes library-most of it is CDs I have uploaded.  How can I Sync without losing all my music from my iTouch???
    Also, I have lectures and photos, etc. on my iTouch that I don't want to lose.
    I've tried a few of the iPod copy programs-the free ones and the ones you have to pay for, but I can't find one that will work for ALL my content on an iTouch.
    Right now, I can't get anything from my iTouch to iTunes, and I can't update my iTouch with my new iTunes purchases, so I'm stuck!  Help!

    Also-I tried to use my backup hard drive, but I wasn't able to drag/transfer/send/move any of my muic files onto my iTouch when the iTouch was connected to my computer.  I can't figure out why it won't let me do that. 
    The only thing I can see when I open my iTouch on my computer is my file with photos.  I can't see videos, music, or anything else.  What's going on?

  • HT1689 I need to get my iPod to no longer be associated with the original i store account. My husband set it up through his account but now I have my own account. I don't want to go through his every time I want to make a change. how do I make this change

    I need to get my iPod to no longer be associated with the original i store account. My husband set it up through his account but now I have my own account. I don't want to go through his every time I want to make a change. how do I make this change?

    I am trying to stop using my I-pod under my husband's I-Tune account.  It was set up under his account and the only way I can use it under my account is to erase all of the songs my husband loaded on for me.  I had heard there is a duration that I-Pods are locked into to one account only, and I am trying to discover how I can use my account without having to erase everything on the I-Pod.  I know it sounds confusing but that's the way I-tunes have set it up.  thanks for asking.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Could you please elaborate a little.

  • Claude and I know my password, but I can not access my account

    Claude and I know my password, but I can not access my account

    HAve you check if there is any changes in your password? Check it out as you/Claude might have updated it accidentally. Try going to appleid.com to check. If you can login there is no issue with your password. If not, you need to answer your security questions to get a temporary password as it might have been reset.

  • I have changed my icloud account but now can't log out of the old account on my ipad. What can I do next?

    I am having problems with logging out of the icloud on my ipad so that I can log in with my new icloud account. How can I change this so that all of my logins will work?

    Have you got 'Find My iPad' enabled? This has to be turned off using the original ID address.
    Try going back to http://appleid.apple.com and changing the ID back to the original address. If you can get this accepted, then go to the iCloud preferences/settings pane, stop 'Find My ....', and then sign out. Do the same on any other devices or computers.
    Then go back to http://appleid.apple.com and change the ID to the new one. Sign in with that on all your devices.
    However if the address which forms the original ID is now not working it can't be validated and it's possible that you won't be able to revert to it. In this situation only Support can help you.
    To contact  iCloud Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the initial period, you can contact them here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.

    Startpage ok now but can't access links from email. Everytime I do this I'm asked to make changes to the computer then an error box appears,I click ok and Then it works.this happens every time on every email link

    hello, when this is happening after you've already updated firefox with your admin account, try to delete the ''updates'' folder and ''active-update.xml & updates.xml'' within the %localappdata% folder of your restricted account like it is described in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update#Software_Update_not_working_properly

  • Migration Assistant created new account to deposit all my stuff, but I can't access that account, even after changing the password via the main acct'

    I am at my wits end.  The migration assistant created a new profile (I didnt konw that it would do this) and now I can't get into that profile with all the stuff from my old PC. 
    I have tried changing password via the main account, but to no avail.  I have researched issues with Keychain, but all it tells me to do is change the login password - that doesnt work either - I cant get to all my files.

    Migraine Assistant it's called.
    Delete the account from the main one, create a new account and transfer files manually via a regular FAT external drive you pickup at any office or computer store, Mac's can read it.

  • I changed my apple I'd and now can't access my account.

    I changed my apple ID to a new email address two days ago and now I am unable to log into my account.  I have followed all of the pathways through the appleid website to try to reset my password and to find my account but haven't had any success with that.I  have tried contacting the iTunes support staff but it is hard to accomplish much through email when it seems they don't really understand the issue am having.   Now all of my devices cannot sync (including my brand new mini which I haven't even been qble to finish setting up) and we are unable access the cloud.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Ok.  Found something that said to shut down and hold the option, command, p, and r keys on restart.  Held them down for a few restarts and everything automatically signed in and works.  Woohoo!!!

  • Downloaded new iTunes but now can't access store....HELP PLEASE!

    In order to download a TV programme from iTunes I had to download a newer version of iTunes however, when I downloaded this it gave me a message saying in order to now use the iTunes store I had to have Safari 4, however, I can't download Safari 4 as my mac is only 10.5.2 and it needs to be 10.5.7, now can I update my mac to be 10.5.7 (I found this patch but don't want to download it unless it's right - http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1058comboupdate .html ) OR can I get rid of the iTunes I downloaded and have my old one back???

    found this patch but don't want to download it unless it's right - http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1058comboupdate .html
    That is the correct updater to bring your system up to the latest version of Mac OS X 10.5.
    OR can I get rid of the iTunes I downloaded and have my old one back???
    You can't but it's not particularly easy. Try updating Mac OS X and then installing Safari 4.0.3 and see where that gets you. Then if you continue to have problems, post back and someone can help further.
    Regards.
