Can not login to a network account.

I dont typically support macs, but I have a client with an odd issue that I can not solve.
He has a Macbook Pro with OSX 10.6.
He logs in using his network account, authenticating against an OSX 10.5 server.
When he tries to to login, it appears as if he has a bad password.
His account is able to login just fine on other Macbooks in the company. (So I'm assuming his network account and password are fine)
Other users are able to log into HIS Macbook just fine, inclusing new accounts that have never before logged into this Macbook. (So I assume his macbook is communicating just fine with the OSX server)
When I go into the accounts list in the Macbook, his account is not there. It's missing.
If I try to create an account with his name, I'm told the account already exists.
We ran diskutility to repair the permissions on the drive, but this did not fix the issue.
Any ideas?
On the windows support side I would simply rebuild the users profile.. I'm not sure what the equivilent is on the mac side.

I'm having a similar problem. Could you let me know how to eliminate the mobile account using the command line?
Thanks!

I can not login to a certain account due to an error stating cookie not enabled, however my 3rd party cookies are enabled. How do I correct this?

I can not login to a certain account due to an error stating cookie not enabled, however my 3rd party cookies are enabled. How do I correct this?

COOKIE_DOMAIN=.hackers
I think this is the problem. .hackers is no valid cookie domain. You have to use something like:
.xy.ab
(two points)
I fear it is not possible to correct this easiely. First change the hostname to something allowed e.g. hackers.com
Then open an ldap browser and edit ou=iplanetamplatformservice,ou=services,dc=hackers
There is an entry with an xml. Copy the xml to an editor, search for .hackers, change it to a valid domainname.
Im not sure if a restart of the webserver is necessary here.
Another idea: You could also try to set the cookie domain to solnce.hackers, maybe this is accepted, even if it is not a cookie domain. But I dont know if this works...

We can not login in to our account with Genbook. All other account have been fine so far.

When ever we use Firefox, we can not login to our account with Genbook (this is the only account we are having this issue with). I can go to Explorer and login without any problems. Please let me know how to correct this problem.

Apple tv 2 problem: I can not login with my ID account!!!!!

apple tv does not login with my ID! Do you have a solution? Since a few weeks I can not login in with my password...
I tried everything:
- re-starting apple tv.
- login on macbook with my apple ID with new password

Signal Strengh on WiFi was great (its a new Apple Time Capsule and has to be reset often). Checked the internet connectivity on other machines too (incase that was inop). I checked the network first as that is typically a impediment to all other things working prior to my previous comment. I logged in to iTunes and MobleMe to see that my password was correct and working. hmmm.
I reset the Apple TV next and again changed my iTunes password on my laptop, then ran a network test (which needs a itunes password to work). Network check was successful and I am logged back in.
Now it says...."Netflix is currently unavailable. Try again later".
geez.

I can not login to any mail accounts using my browser...

I can not login in any of my mail accounts (e.g. yahoo, hotmail, gmail) using safari, google chrome even messengers. However, I can browse easily. Moreover, apple mail is not working either. I have tried to reset all my three accounts but my MacBook Air can not contact with Incoming or Outgoing server. Please, help me in solving the problem.

Hi
It is because you are putting the www. in front of each of them
Try:
http://mail.unnayan.org
http://mail.yahoo.com
http://mail.google.com
http://mail.live.com
That should work

Can not login to the network

The computer has worked with no problems. Today it will not allow anyone to login except as administrator. There have been no updates. It is not the user account as this works on a different MAC. I have a network connection because I can access the internet when logged in as administrator. The computer is on a Windows Network. It is using the Ethernet port. The Ethernet settings are set to automatic. The DHCP lease has been refreshed. Any ideas?

Hi Dan, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Not much info to go on, but could the Clock be off on the accounts that can't log in?

Can not login to Oracle Application Express after upgrade to 3.2

I installed oracle database express and then I upgrade APEX to 3.2 on it. I got the login page but I can not login by using any account, like SYS, SYSTEM. From the document, internal ADMIN account should exist but I did not see it from dba_users table.
Thanks,
Julie

HI Don,
I did run apxchpwd.sql to change the Application Express ADMIN user password. Then I invoked http://mymachine:8080/apex and got the Application Express login page. I put ADMIN in workspace and ADMIN in Username and the new password. But I still cannot login. I also tried http://mymachine:8080/apex/apex_admin page login. I typed ADMIN as username and the new password. Then I clicked on Login button. Nothing happened. No error message.
Any idea?
By the way, what does apxxepwd.sql do?
Thanks,
Julie

I have an apple id but ı can not use it for sign in to itunes connect account while publishing my ibook document. Why ı can not login? What can ı do to figure out this problem?

I have an apple id but ı can not use it for sign in to itunes connect account while publishing my ibook document. Why ı can not login? What can ı do to figure out this problem?

As note already on the iBA forum [ AppleID for ibooks publishing ], you need two IDs. You can't use your developer ID.
If you already signed up for books with that ID, you need to talk to Apple to straighten things out.

I changed my Apple ID (other email address and password) and now I can not login to my account in the iPhone iCloud. When I open the tab iCloud displayed my old Apple ID (it was in the iCloud) and asks for a password, but neither the old nor the new password does not match. What to do?

If you want to change your iCloud ID or password on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated information. Note: this only deletes the account and any synced data from your phone, not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.

Hi
My computer was shut down. It was set on Japanese Hiragana language before shutting down. Now I want to login with my password in English. Yet, teh keyboard was set in Japanese and thus, I can not login anymore. How can I reset/change from Hiragana Japanese mode to Englsih ( US) with some shortcuts on my keyboard?
thank you

Try Apple/Command + space.
For the future, go to system prefs/accounts/login items and check the box for Show Input Menu on Login Screen.

Can't login to open directory accounts unless using server machine

I cannot login to any network accounts from my macbook on my local network i have tried bindind the machine to the open directory with local ip, local address and domain and all appear to be working but i cant login to any of the accounts although the passwords are correct.

Hi Salda,
I'm currently experiencing a similar problem to yours.
My situation is that I have just created a new user account which is part of our media users group.
This group is in the list of allowed users for our mac pro client host, but when I attempt to login using their credentials I get the same error you had, namely that their home directory is located on a afp or smb server (which is of course the case).
I hope you can tell me a resolution that doesn't require a re-installation of the OS.
Thanks for your help.

I can not login into the system.

Hello! A problem - I can not login into the system. After entering the login and password for a second or two there is a blue screen, then the universe, then again a blue screen, and - again, the login window. This happens with just one account of the four on my iMac-2007 with OS 10.6.8. How can I be?
