ARE THESE USER-ACCOUNTS BY DEFAULT: ADAMS...

Hi everybody,
I was doing a round of all the views in the SYS adminstrator account.
I came across the following user-accounts in the view ALL_VIEWS:
ADAMS, JONES, CLARK and BLAKE
Maybe the guy who was using Oracle before me had created these user accounts. But if these accounts are created by default while installing Oracle 8i, then I would like to know their passwords.
I am not able to locate the user-account information regarding these users in any of the files in my Oracle home directory. I tried logging into user ADAMS with password ADAMS itself but the attempt failed.
The Intermedia Text Manager displays a nearly empty listing of these user-accounts. The most surprising thing is that these user-accounts do not have the TABLE and VIEW nodes, only Index and Stored Procedure nodes.
If it helps, I have Oracle 8.1.6 on Windows 2000. I had installed iFS 1.1.7 on my machine (it still exists on my Windows 2000 machine) and I came across some files in the iFS directory, containing a list of user names. A few of these user names are jadams, dblake, rjones and eclark (my heart nearly skipped a beat when I read these user names).
Thanks in advance.

From the "Ask Tom" column of Oracle Magazine (asktom.oracle.com):
"adams, blake, clark, jones should be dropped. They are demo accounts. if you
installed demos, they got installed."
Hope this helps.

Why are deleted user accounts showing up in login window and fast user switching menu?

There are several old user accounts, just test accounts when I was studying for ACSA that I deleted, which continue to show up in the login window and the fast user switcher menu. I deleted them before upgrading to Lion (I think it was before). The accounts do not exsist in the /Users folder, nor even the /Users/Deleated Users folder. Additionally they do not show up in the list of users in System Preferences. Can anyone give some advice on how to remove these "ghost" accounts from the login window and drop down menu?
Thanks

Hi. Thanks for the link. Sorry it took me a while to get to this, the problem is not a show stopper, so to speak, so tried your advice when I had the time. Unfortunatly it did not work. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

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 can see these in my user groups, and I can change the passwords on both as often as I like. But when I then try to logon, the screen just shakes and nothing happens.
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.

System Image Utility / Automator Add User Account no default shell

I've noticed when creating a customized netrestore flow in System Image Utility for Yosemite, the result of the "Add User Account" action is a user missing a default shell. Noticed this when terminal kept closing as soon as it was opened. dscl -create localhost /Local/Default/Users/USERNAME UserShell /bin/bash fixed the issue but is obviously undesired for provisioning new computers. Any ideas how to configure a default shell for new users created in this way?

Solved by ensuring the add user account action immediately follows the define image source action.

TS3276 There are two User accounts on my iMac. The two Users have seperate email accounts. Both email Mailboxes show up in each Account. If I Delete Mailbox from in User account, does it delete the Mailbox from the other User account at the same time?

There are 2 Users on my iMac. Each User has their own email account. Both account Mailboxes show up in each User's account. If I delete a Mailbox in one account, does it delete the same Mailbox in the other Account?

If you click the - sign in Mail preferences, it will delete that mail account. If you just delete the Mailbox, that will just delete the Mailbox.
Each user can put their own email account information in Mail when logged into their User Account.
If you don't want the other user's mail account to show up in your mail application, then make sure the other user's messages are available to them when they are logged into their account and delete the other user account from Mail in your User Account. The other user can do the same when logged into their user account. Any messages stored in one locally will have to be transfered to the other's user account if it's not saved in their user login.
In addition, instead of deleting the account at first, highlight the account and open the Advanced Tab and disable the account. That email account will dissappear from Mail. Once you decide that you don't want the account, you can delete it. If you need to get back to it to transfer messages, just re enable it.

I have windows vista and there are 4 user accounts. How do we share our music library and only sync the tracks we want individually? I am no computer whizz so my understanding is very basic. Thank you.

Thanks for any help

To give other users read-only access to your iTunes library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support article linked below.
iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
There is a way to share the library without moving it to a secondary volume. If you really need to do that, ask for instructions.

Sharing games with different user accounts

Hello. I've been meaning to ask this for ages and was hoping for some help.
There are four user accounts on my mac and my son and daughter love Zoo Tycoon. My question is, how do I share the actual app between the accounts as I can't seem to sort out the permissions (they have Parental Controls on too but with Zoo Tycoon ticked for allowed use).
My idea was to have the Zoo Tycoon folder stored in the Computer/Users/Shared folder and use it with both accounts from there, but I keep getting 'try installing on an unlocked volume' message.
Does anyone know if this is possible and how to set permissions correctly?
Thanks in advance.
Damian.

All your Applications should be in /Applications folder by default to be accessible to all users and to be seen by updaters. If you created an "Applications" folder within your Home folder, then only you will be able to use those Applications. Otherwise there should be no permissions issues.
Check Permissions Inside a Home folder:
• Navigate to /Users/~(Home)/Library.
• Get Info (Command - i) on folders for apps you are having problems with.
• Open the "Ownership & permissions" disclosure triangle.
• Make sure the user is the owner, with "read and write" access.
• Click on "apply to all"
• If this is correct, open the "Applications Support" folder and do the same procedure (Command+I) for the folders with the names of the applications you are having trouble with.

User Account File Sharing

I've searched this forum to find my answer, but I'm shocked by what I've read, and although it makes sense, I can't believe OSX (10.4) has been set up this way and want to double check with you guys before I give up.
I want to have two user accounts on my Mac. I do not have a broadband connection so, obviously, I don't have a .Mac account.
I want these user accounts to share the following:
• various files/docs
• iCal
• Address Book
• iPhoto
• iTunes
I know how to share files (use the shared folders).
Sharing iCal and my addresses w/o .Mac involves either third-party plug-ins or moving stuff around and making symbolic links. In either case, some users have said that updates made by one user may not be automatically seen by another...something that I'm not going to mess with.
Sharing iPhoto and iTunes seems pretty simple, but those programs run into problems when they're updated to, right? Can I share these libraries, add content to them, and have both users see the new content without having to manually update the library?
For what I think should be a pretty easy thing to set up this all looks like a pain and when all is said and done, will not have the functionality I enjoy now with only one account. Is this really the current state of affairs for those of us without .Mac accounts?

You need to create a shared folder in which both users will have read+write access to everything added inside. Prior to Tiger this was not easily done. But now it can be done with a quick trip to the command line to enable ACLs:
1) Log in as an administrator and go to /Users/Shared.
2) Create a new folder inside, call it something like SharedLibraries.
3) Open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, and enable ACLs by typing:
sudo fsaclctl -p / -e
4) Set ACLs on the new folder by pasting all of this at once:
sudo chmod +a "USERNAME allow delete,chown,list,search,add_file,\
addsubdirectory,delete_child,file_inherit,directoryinherit" \
/Users/Shared/SharedLibraries
Replace USERNAME with the short name of one of the users to whom you wish to give access.
5) Repeat step 4, replacing USERNAME with the short name of the other user.
6) Close Terminal.
7) To share the iPhoto Library, log in as the user who has the library you want to share.
8) Open up two Finder windows, one showing /Users/username/Pictures and the other showing /Users/Shared/SharedLibraries.
9) Drag the /Users/username/Pictures/iPhoto Library folder to /Users/Shared/SharedLibraries to move it to the new shared folder.
10) Command-Option-Drag the iPhoto Library back to its original location. This will create an alias to its new location.
11) Log in as the second user, and command-option-drag the iPhoto Library from the new shared folder back to the user's ~/Pictures folder.
12) Repeat steps 7 to 11, moving the appropriate libraries (iCal, Address Book, etc) for the apps you want to share.
Once you are done, both users will be able to use and edit the same shared libraries, just as if they were that user's own.

Is there a way to duplicate a User Account when setting up an iMac

I have a lab of 30 iMac computers. I am planning on imaging 29 of them from 1 master machine. In the process of setting this one machine up, I need to create 4 user accounts that will have identical settings, but will simply have different names. Each account is for a different period of the Intro to Video Class I teach. Instead of having to go through each User account and change each setting, can I create one profile and then make copies of this profile and rename it to the different class periods I teach. These User accounts are not administrator accounts. The will have limited access.

Thank you for your replies. I am setting up one machine perfectly, so that I can use that machine to image the other 29 machines. My issue is that in setting up the one perfect machine I need to create 6 different User Accounts on the machine. Four of the User Accounts are perfectly identical except for the name of the User Account. It takes a lot of time to set up the Dock and all the user preferences of each of these User Accounts. I am looking for a way to duplicate the User Accounts so that I can same some time. I want to create one user account, set it up with all the details and then duplicate it three more times.

Monitor settings lost when switching user accounts.

Hi! I just recently noticed that every time i switch user accounts, my monitor settings get corrupted.
There are 2 user accounts in my ibook. One account is used for work while the other one is used for home purposes. The work account has a specific monitor setting which is calibrated to our workstations. The other account has default settings on it.
My question is that when I switch users, the settings for my work account gets corrupted. I also can't change the settings without having to restart the book.
I already repaired permissions and zapped the pram. The same thing still happens.
Thanks in advance!

Hello Chuck!
I've had this problem too. Like you, I managed to navigate to do a restart, but nothing else would make the mouse cursor reappear.
Bruce, I wasn't using Biggy, PinPoint or any of the other mouse visibility things, simply the magnification provided by System Preferences.
I put it down to a fault on 10.4.4—a very buggy release— and haven't yet been able to reproduce it on 10.4.5.
I suggest you send a fault report to Apple ([email protected]), explaining all the circumstances. Try always undoing the cursor zoom before switching users (yes, that's a pain too!!!). And if I manage to reproduce the problem, I promise I'll send in a fault report too!

Missing catalogs in user account

Running Win 7.
Have to move to new win 7 user account ( Win 7 bug!) I have three catalogs in old account, can't see any of them in new user account. Default 'my catalog' is empty. They do not appear in 'browse' either. The pictures are there in 'My Pictures' and appear properly in old user account. How do I get them?
Thanks

function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
1. I don't think PSE8 is 'seeing' images in correct user acct.... windows>properties='No Selection'?
You have to have exactly one thumbnail selected do do Window > Properties.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
2. Can I copy pse8db to c:/users/correct/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Elements Organizer/Catalog/My Catalog?
I think you're asking whether you can copy a catalog.pse8db file to that folder? Every PSE catalog is a separate folder, containing a file catalog.pse8db. If you want to move or copy a catalog, you should copy the entire folder, not just the catalog.pse8db file. It's best to use PSE's File > Catalog > Move command.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
3. Can I rename 'master catalog' to 'My catalog"?
Yes, unless there is already a catalog folder of that name in the same parent folder. Use File > Catalog > Rename to do the rename -- it will tell you if there is already a catalog of the same name.

Transfer User Accounts

I am in the process of upgrading a client's firewalls from 5520s to 5525-Xs. I have 2 independent firewalls that are merging into a single firewall. Both of the source ones have a TON of user accounts defined for remote user VPN, is there any way to move these user accounts with passwords in tact?? The goal is not to have to tell the 250+ users that they need to reset their passwords at once.
Thanks.

Hi,
To my understanding you should be able to copy/paste the "username" configuration line as is directly from the old to the new configuration.
I am not sure if the parameter for each "username" have had any changes in format. But if they have I am pretty sure you can use find/replace in some text editor to easily modify large amount of configurations to the format that the new ASA supports

Movie wont play in another user account

Hi ... why would a movie play fine in my account but not in my wifes ...message "Cannot open this file" or something ... any thoughts please .... best Roger

Thanks quicktimekirk ... well yes it makes sense but ... so i download a QT movie ... do I then need to find out what codec was used ... and how do i do that please ... and then i guess if it plays in my account I can assume that my account has the codec ... then I have to find that codec and copy it into every other user account ... so to take it to an extreme if there are several dozen possible codecs and several dozen different user accounts I could spend my life copying and pasting codecs ... this seems nonsense .... why isn't it possible for the fundamental bits be installed in all user accounts by default and if that's NOT what you want tick a box to exclude some users ... but if that's the way it is something must be wrong. It can't be that difficult. I'm in the broadcast design business and I downloaded someones "Showreel" ... another account can't watch this movie ?.... wierd ! Thanks as ever for your time though .... regards Roger

How to delete a greyed out user account?

I'm trying to delete several user accounts, but some (both standard and admin) are greyed out even after i unlock the window in preferences/accounts. I can't find any info on why this might be, or how to delete these user accounts. Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks.

Well, I think that was the answer, since when i rebooted, then I had free access to all the accounts. Thanks for your quick response.

How do I move all files from one user account into another on my Mac?

So I am a new Mac owner (MacBook Pro, OS X 10.9.4) so I don't know about a lot of the tricks and settings I can use yet.
I just used the Migration Assistant last night to transfer files from my old laptop onto my Mac, but I've already been using the Mac for just over a week meaning I have a user account with all my preferences set, music added to iTunes, photos added, bookmarks, etc. The transfer last night created a whole new user account for all of the files from my old laptop, rather than importing them into the account I've been using. Just wondering if there is a quick and easy way to somehow merge these user account into one, or something similar. Hope I explained properly!

Choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, provide /Users/ as the path, drag one account's home folder to the other's desktop, and move the items inside it to the desired locations.
