Can I add new user to drive 2?

I have two drives on a MacPro. I cannot boot drive two because I have forgotten the password.
Can I add a new user for this drive (and boot into this new user)? I am fairly competent with Unix but need explicit instructions.
Thanks in advance.
Lewis

Ok, here's what I was doing.
I was cloning a 10.4.11 system onto a Mac Pro using ccc and using an image from a recent iMac with the same video driver. At the sign-on screen of the new system on the Mac Pro, the password would not work.
My solution was to use a different external drive to clone the system and it worked without a hitch.
All is well.
Thank you for asking.

  • Master Data Services - Can not add new User and MDS can not Identify LOCAL Users

    Team,
    We are using  SQL Server 2008 R2 and system working since long and suddenly we observed mentioned two issues. The server MyServer is already restarted but did not help.  The MDS installed and configured on SAME Machine (MyServer).
      I  have two issues here.
    1. MDM website can not Identify the local Users (MyServer\MyUser).
    The User created on local Machine (MyServer\MyUser). I logged into MDM website using Admin login and click on User and Permission. Then I click on add and Text box appears to type UserName. Here I type "MyServer\MyUser" (MyServer\MyUser is already
    exists and working since long). Then click checkName; I received a message "No exact Match was found for MyServer\MyUser". Where as User from OTHER domain identified in MDM but could not identify ONLY the local users like "MyServer\MyUser".
    2. Can not add new user in Existing working MDM.
    I created windows user on machine (MyServer\MyUser1) and add it in UserGroup having an access to MDM. and then I tried to login to MDM using newly created user (MyServer\MyUser1) ; I see error Access Is Denied. The Permission assigned to UserGroup (not
    to individual user). The new User (MyUser1) should automatically get added in MDM once logged in. This is working for existing users in UserGroup; BUT NOT ONLY for new user (MyUser1).

    Now I Solved this problem in my case.
    I just grant again all permissions according http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff486994.aspx. Now all work fine.
    Hope, it will help

  • Can't add new users in Server Admin console in Server 10.1.4.

    I've run into an issue with an older OS X Server 10.1.4 running on a G4 platform. It functions as a shared file repository and I need to add new users. However, it would appear that I've developed a problem.
    When trying to add new users I get the following error:
    An error occurred in the Users & Groups module in entry point "RACMMenuItemSelected".
    A program error has occurred.
    1004
    Now, my best guess is it's a corruption somewhere. But, I don't want to go poking around the production server taking it down and up until I've got some idea where I'm going. Any suggestions on where my troubles might be? Or has anyone had this issue before, and how was it corrected? (Hopefully not by a full software reload.)
    I'd like to replace/upgrade this server, but until there's money in the budget, that's just a dream, I need to try to figure out how to fix what's here.
    Help, please?
    PowerBook G4 17   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   1.5G RAM

    No answer was found for this issue. I've finally removed the server from production and will likely reformat and reinstall for use in other production areas. Hopefully we'll be upgrading the OS at the same time.

    If you were going to be reading and writing to a NTFS System Partition, you might have to worry about the instability messing up the operating system.  However, you are reading/writing from a non system, backup device so you don't have to worry about screwing up an operating system.
    I would still temporarily move my data to another device and reformat the drive for Mac OS X Extended.

  • Can't Kerberize or add new users

    I keep experiencing the same strange behavior: after a variable amount of time (from hours to days) Open Directory in Server Admin will show that Kerberos is not running. When I click the Kerberize button, neither the server admin account nor the domain admin account will work. I just keep getting prompted for a password in a loop.
    Restarting may or may not show the Kerberos service running.
    In either case, I then cannot add new users to the domain. The New User button in Workgroup Manager is disabled.
    I'm really new to Mac Server (I don't even know enough to be dangerous); so, I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this issue. I'd like to transition users to portable home directories, but the solutions I've read to Kerberos problems is to demote the server and the promote. But that wipes the users, so, I don't really want to go that route.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi
    If you can authenticate to the OD node – and it only needs to be once – you can select all your users (not Directory Administrator UID 100) and export them. WGM > Server Menu > Export. How many are there? This will allow you to reimport them later on into any directory node you like, local NetInfo or OD. Passwords do not carry over but this is no big deal as you can assign a password policy later on. When first populating the OD node with users and groups its a good idea to export and save them all to a memory stick or something suitable. It may not help you in this situation but its a good tip for later on.
    As Leif says if Kerberos is stopping or starting and generally being flaky its usually (but not always) down to a problem with DNS somewhere.
    There are other possibilities. Perhaps the Server has been joined to an Active Directory KDC? If thats so the users you may be seeing are already on the AD Server and there is nothing to lose. It could also explain why authentication is a struggle. Your post also seems to be indicating a time sync issue, (along with DNS another common problem). Inspect the edu.mit.Kerberos file located in /Library/Preferences on the clients to see which KDC is issuing tickets. It may not be the OD Master. If you find that the server is supplementing AD and not providing SSO then its should be safe to demote. Ultimately this is really the only effective solution. Demote to Standalone and sort out the DNS problems (if any) and repromote.
    There is another possible solution which you could try if you feel brave enough.
    When the server get promoted to OD Master slapd creates the slapd_macosxserver.conf file in /etc/openldap. This file will contain an entry for the root LDAP user – rootdn. Just as System Administrator (UID 501) admin has root sitting behind it so does Directory Administrator (UID 1000) diradmin. This root user has total control over all the data inside the LDAP database, standard access controls do not apply to this user. The important bit about rootdn is that ANY USER and PASSWORD can be used. The user and password does not even have to exist in the LDAP database itself, it only needs to exist in slapd_macosxserver.conf. The default system admin account or root can edit this file to add a new user and password (it can be MD5 or plaintext), slapd will then assume that any user which can authenticate to the newly created name and password is the root user for the LDAP database and will give full access to user records and the OD node itself. Create a new user in the local NetInfo node first, try not to use diradmin and UID1000.
    Hope this helps – Tony

  • Can't add new Widgets to Dashboard on main user account

    I recently switched to a new MacBook Air and after the initial intstallation used migration assistent to move my old data to the MacBook Air. All works fine except the Dashboard. With the old useraccount (which is my main account) I can't add new widgets to the dashboard. When I download and install a new widget I can see it in the /user/library/widgets section, I can see it in the widget list in the dashboard but when I click on it or drag it up to the dashboard it closes the dashboard again.
    I tried adding a new user and in works fine in that new account.
    Here's what I did to try and solve it sofar:
    1. Repaired permissions
    2. Deleted the two .plist's in user/library/preferences
    3. Deleted the Cache in user/library/cache
    4. Checked the folder permissions in /user/library/widget and compared that with the newuser/library/widget
    5. Downloaded the 10.6.6. combo update and reinstalled
    This behaviour is with every new widget I tried to install.
    I tried to find similar behaviour using google but so far no luck. Any suggestions?

    You have hosed preferences in the main user account. Create a new admin user account, log into it, backup the bad account's folder, delete the bad account, selecting the save data option, recreate the bad account using the same username/password combo, log out and back into the recreated original account. If the problem's solved, open the saved data dmg file in /Users/Deleted Users/, open the /Library/Preferences/ folder from the saved data, open the current /Users/restored account/Library/Preferences/ folder, and slowly copy plist files from the saved data folder to the current one that don't exist in it. Log out and back in to ensure there's no conflict and things still work correctly. Resolving conflicts or identifying corrupt plist files is a laborious process. Good luck.

  • How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc which has ample remaining free space? After preparing the new video for burning and clicking on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject.

    How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc with a video previously successfully recorded on it? (The disc has ample remaining free space.)
    After preparing the new video for burning and clicking in the File menu on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject. My assumption has been that iDVD would automatically find the free space and continue with the new recording from there. I'd be grateful if anyone can shine light on this.

    There are, but not with a DVD written as a movie disk. It must be closed when completed, or it doesn't work.
    Apple's built in Burn utility also automatically closes any data CD, DVD or Blu-ray disk you burn. Doesn't matter how much space is unused, you can't use it. You'd have to use a more advanced disk creation app, such as Toast Titanium. I then have the option of choosing to write the data as a session:
    I can keep doing this until the disk is full. If I've written five sessions to the disk, when I put it in the drive, five CD/DVD icons will appear on the desktop since the OS will treat each session as if they are separate physical disks. At any point you choose Write Disk when writing a group of data, that means you're closing the disk, and again can't add anything after that. So if I had written two sessions, and the third was Write Disk, it's over. I can't put anything else on that disk.

  • My bookmarks have disappeared and I can't add new bookmarks.

    All my bookmarks have disappeared, including the defaults on the toolbar of most visited, etc. I can't add new bookmarks either. I have tried all the Help Topics on lost bookmarks. I tried restoring bookmark backups, but the backup from the date I lost bookmarks says "unable to process backup file." All the later dates will load, but they have no bookmarks saved in them. All of the other Help Topic attempts went fine but did not solve the problem.

    What I would say is that if you have any bookmarks at all at present that you make a manual backup of them, and then continue to make manual backups as any recovery efforts proceed.
    * see [[Backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
    There is a possibility that you had corrupt files, and may then have inadvertently overwritten any files that may have contained bookmarks. It is a good idea to make manual backups, for cases where the auto backups do not. work as expected.
    If you have already followed the instructions carefully about [[lost bookmarks]] and without resolving the situation, there may not be much you can do about your personal bookmarks. If they are important and you are willing to try there may be a possibility using file recovery software, &/or sqlite editors that something could be salvaged, but not something I can advise on, I am not currently a Mac user.
    The default bookmarks should be fairly easy to restore. You can probably also start the bookmarks working again. Trying the simplest options first:
    # work from [safe mode]
    #* at this stage when you see the first dialogue window with options do not make changes, press the continue button
    # use the customise / customize option from the toolbars and '''reset defaults'''
    #* Mac may differ from my Windows XP, I can right click bookmarks, or use the tools menu see [[How do I customize the toolbars?]]
    # if that has failed to resolve the problem go back to safe mode as in step 1 but this time use reset toolbars and controls.
    By now you should have the default bookmarks back and maybe the bookmarks work and will save new bookmarks, try it whilst still in safe mode, before going back to try in ordinary mode. If it works in safe mode but not in ordinary mode you probably have some add-on managing to cause problems
    If you still have problems and bookmarks will not save see [[bookmarks not saved]] that probably indicates corrupt places.sqlite &/or localstore.rdf the linked article explains how to find and delete them.

  • How to add new user status in Solman

    Hello,
    I wanted to add a new user status in Solman.i have added one new user status " reopen" . but when i checed it is showing as "no status".
    I have also checked the table TJ30T, in this table we have 2 entry for all other user status one is in english and one is in german.
    Please let me know how to add entry in this table or is there any other ways to add new user status in solman.
    Regards,
    Bhavesh

    Hi Abhyankar,
    Explain the scenario where you want to create a new user status?
    General remark:
    Creation of new user status can be for 2 cases: Whether you want the status to show up in the status field or you want to only use the status to search corrections and the status is displayed in "Further Statuses" tab.
    If you want to use the new user status for searching the corrections and this user status will be manually set, then you need to create the status in CRMBS02 transaction without specifying any status numbers.
    Then the new status will be available in "Further statuses" tab and you need to manually set or unset the status.
    If you need your user status to reflect in the status field then you've perform the following actions in SPRO:
    1. Create Authorization key for the new status
    2. Create the new status with status number and order of visibility; assign the authorization key to the status
    3. Create the action which will set the status
    4. Add the action in the action profile
    5. Write the schedule condition required
    These steps are on a high level. Hope this helps you to decide.
    Regards,
    Sameer

  • Can't add new datafile into a table space?

    Hi, Oraclers,
    I am learning Oracle. I found one problem: I can't add new datafile to an existing
    table space. I tried to add via OEM and SQLPlus. None of them works.
    I can see that the datafile, say ras01.dbf, is in my hard drive. But I can't see
    it via OEM datafile.
    Also, this datafile creating procedure has never stopped. In SQLPlus, after I
    submitte ths statement, after 7 days, this sql statement is still running. The
    same thing happened in OEM.
    The sql statement is:
    ALTER TABLESPACE "RASBLK"
    ADD

    so you have definitely tried to use a Winlows Server with NTFS for a 1TB++ Database ?
    I never heard of that and I wouldn't even dare to dream of that, but as stated above theoretically (that is: according to MS) this should work.
    But surely your process has crossed some internal limitations, at least that is what it looks like.
    I guess you must go to your %ORACLE_BASE%\admin\%SID%\bdump or udump directories to eventually find a trace file there.
    recommendation is: move to some kind of bigger system (Solaris,AIX).
