Can I disable (or remove) the "migration administrator" account?

I installed a SBS 2011 server about two years ago - and migrated from an old SBS 2003 server.
In the process of migration, a "migration administrator" account was created.  Now, I see it in my list of users and was wondering if I missed a step somewhere that should have deleted (or disabled) this account.
Is it safe to disable?

Its always a good practice to Disable a NON required account. You can read the description of the user account "If Any" . If its an account that is apart from BuiltInAdministrator, go ahead and delete or disable.
Normally in SBS 2008 and SBS 2011 Domain "Administrator" account as it is disabled by default. This is for security reasons as the most common account for hackers to use when launching an attack on your server is the default administrator account
name. If you need the "Administrator" account for some reason, though I don't recommend using it, it is in AD under the Uses OU not the MyBusiness\Users\SBSUsers OU. You will need to enable it, and assign a password.

    By voiding your warranty and hacking it. There may be other fixes though. Try resetting network settings in settings>general>reset. If that doesn't work try a hard reset. If that doesn't work then backup, restore as new, then from backup

  • How can I Disable or Remove the entire Bookmarks Toolbar Feature?

    I really LOVE Firefox. With over thirty years into the desktop computing industry, I can honestly say it's one of the most impressive development efforts I've seen. Thank you, seriously, all of you, everyone who has worked toward creating, maintaining and enabling the presence of this truly wonderful application!
    I have never sought specific help with this one thing, and was just reminded a moment ago, how much better Firefox would be (for me) if I could completely disable/ uninstall the entire Bookmarks Toolbar _feature_. By the time this feature appeared, I had already developed and established my own system for filing bookmarks into a preset folder hierarchy. This works -much- better (for me) and I have no use for the Bookmarks Toolbar. It's always in my way, takes up screen space, and just really annoys the fecal-stuffin's out of me. Kinda reminds me of the -worst- things I remember of M$.
    Once the feature is (somehow) killed, I'd like to then...
    ...Remove that folder from Bookmarks (menu, folder, etc -- all of it), and preferably, prevent it ever reappearing (setting 'lock'?).
    I realize this -might- be something not currently 'doable' by standard means. If that should be the case, can someone forward this message into the 'feature request' queue for me? I truly would appreciate that.
    Thank you in advance, and THANK YOU for Firefox!!!

    Wow, cor-el... Did you -intend- your reply to be inane, inappropriate and completely inapplicable?
    How would that possibly do what I asked?
    You -might- consider '''''reading''''' the question, -=before=- you reply. And it's really okay to NOT REPLY if you just don't know. Just an idea.
    Feel better, real soon.

  • I have just used migration assistant to import photos (using an ethernet cable) from my PC. It has worked but they have gone into a new user on my MacPro. How can I merge them into the one user account.

    I have just used migration assistant to import photos (using an ethernet cable) from my PC. It has worked but they have gone into a new user on my MacPro. How can I merge them into the one user account.

    How many pictures (or how many bytes) are we talking?  Now that the pictures are imported one way to cross users is to use a removable drive (although large volumes of files preclude this).
    The other is to login as the user where the pictures are, then copy them into the public drop box of the user where you want the picture.
    The arrow is showing (in ths example) copy files from the Pictures folder for my user to the guest user accounts public dropbox.  When you do this you may have to authenticate and you won't be able to see the results of the copy until you log in as the other user.
    All users are in the folder "/Users/"

  • Completely disable or remove the Mac App Store

    Hello,
    I have several Macintosh computers which are on an unmanaged network, however I need to control what applications are installed on these machines without having to dig through Parental Controls on each machine. My question is simple: *how do I go about disabling or removing the Mac App Store from these machines after updating to 10.6.6 properly ?* -- avoiding the update itself isn't a solution as all future updates are likely to have it bundled in as well.
    Here's what I've tried so far:
    1. Restricting access to App Store.app via CHMOD in the Terminal - messy and would prefer not to have to go this route.
    2. Trashing App Store.app entirely - seems to reset the "App Store" link in the Apple menu back to "Mac OS X Downloads..." and does almost what I want except when opening unknown file types, the dialog asks you if you want to search the App Store at which point you hit the button and it does nothing. Seems a bit hacky/messy.
    I was hoping there would be some sort of toggle for this via a PLIST or something of the sort instead of resorting to deleting system files etc.
    Cheers,
    John
    Message was edited by: John S.A. - fixed the title.

    If you have a computer lab or some similar environment where this app is inappropriate, just delete it. That's all you have to do. Yes, that means that the Search App Store button won't work when opening an unknown file type, but that's a minor issue that can be explained away easily by just telling people who encounter that issue that the App Store is disabled.
    As to everyone else (not John S.A.) who does not have a good reason to disable it and has some kind of aesthetic or ethical gripe about it... quit the baby-whining! Geez, if you don't like it, you don't have to use it! Delete it or don't, but quit crying about it! You can still purchase and install applications the same way you did before the App Store. Apple is not forcing you to use it, they are not forcing you to enter any personal information.
    I really don't get the whole "you get what the manufacturer wants you to have" nonsense. It is an option. Let's keep some perspective here, folks.

  • How to Disable or Remove the Click and Call Functi...

    The Skype Click and Call function highlights phone and contact numbers on webpages and emails, and a Skype call can be executed by simply clicking the highlighted number.
    The easiest way to disable this is to remove or uninstall the Click to Call with Skype plugin, via Control Panel's Add/Remove or Uninstall Program function.
    Click and Call feature can also be deactivated by disabling or removing the plugin through your browsers' manage add-ons/plugins options (actual procedure varies according the the browser type).
    Moreover, to re-enable this function, just download and install the Click and Call plugin again;

    How can I erase (or remove) the hard drive from a dead Time Capsule?

    I found this having had the same problem...
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=553818
    Having removed the hard drive I'm finding I can't reformat it. I manage to mount the HD but Disk Utility crashes when trying to format (HD attached to Mac via Newer Tech. SATA cables to USB) and causes what I think is a kernal panic on my Mac which hard crashes. I see 3 partitions when attempting to mount one of which is AFP. Anyone got any ideas about how to do this? I've dug around but the only progress I've made is to note others have had to work around ACL's when replacing the logic board of the TC. Not sure if this even relates to the problem. However the tool for doing this seems to have been removed from SL. (Forum references to this procedure all relate to 10.5).

    As of EHP3, you could still install some EHP components. On an ERP 6.00, you could just push SAP_APP to 6.03 and move on. Now if you want another component in your system with an EHP4 version, you can't have some components at EHP3 and some at EHP4. You would install EHP4 for the new component you desire updated and part of the work will be to also update SAP_APP to 6.04.
    EHP4 is an UPGRADE process, with shadow instance & all the joy of an upgrade process. You can either run ressource minimized or downtime minimized. In resource minimized, the shadow instance runs on the same server as the main instance. Downtime minimized allow to run the shadow instance on a separate / new server. Anyway you go, you will always have a "Downtime Phase" when you bring back the updated components from the shadow instance toward the real production one.
    As with any UPGRADE project, the benefits of installing EHP4 for your business has to weighted against the downtime cost.
    Our tests so far on small systems (few data, few users, 120GB database) show ~3 days process from EHP3 to EHP4 (all components) with a downtime phase of about 22 hours using the "resource minimized" path, i.e. shadow & main instance on the same server (4 CPUs, 16GB RAM). Until you give a try at your Sandbox or DEV systems, you won't have realistic figures for your environment.
    Good luck!

    I've done some research on the SQLite database. Whenever Aperture hangs up (like during auto-stack or opening the filter hud) there are thousands of SQLite queries happening. These SQLite queries cause massive file I/O because the database is stored on the disk as 1kb pages. However, the OS is caching the database file; mine's only 12MB. I'm trying to track down some performance numbers for SQLite on osx but having trouble.
    It's starting to look like most of the speed problems are in the libraries that Aperture uses instead of the actual Aperture code. Of course, that doesn't completely let the developers off the hook since they choose to use them in the first place.
    Oh, and if anyone is curious, the database is completely open to queries using the command line sqlite3 tool. Here's the language reference http://www.sqlite.org/lang.html
    Hmm, just found this. Looks like someone else has been playing around in the db http://www.majid.info/mylos/stories/2005/12/01/apertureInternals.html
