Can't change login window display

I am running 10.7.2 on a new MacBook. I've created Admin accounts/users and in the first account I chose "Display Log-in Window as: Name & Password". Now all subsequent accounts/users are set that way and no matter what I do [including unlocking the lock at the bottom of the window], I cannot switch any of them to "List of Users". PS. This machine was not set up from an image.
Thanks for any help with this.

Have you tried returning to the school and connecting to the network since your settings changed? I would log into that network again and see if the box is accessible when you are logged in. (If it works, clamp the padlock on that setting.) If that doesn't help, in your shoes my next step would be finding the network administrator for the school and see if they might have a suggestion.
Caveat: I am new to Leopard and have not been in your situation. But so far nobody has given you any suggestions, and mine won't make things worse.
Good luck, and please post back with an update.

    How can I change the window size of iTunes on my iMac?  Used to be easy before installing Mavericks.

    If you want to make the itunes tab so you can see the dock
    you press the
    esc
    button if your in full screen mode
    if you want to get into full screen mode you press the arrows facing away from eachother in the top right corner
    there is another way to get to the normal tab if your in full screen
    make the curser go right up to the top of the screen and it will show the apple tab
    it will have two arrows facing together highlited in blue
    if u tap that it will take you to the normal tab

  • Login window displayed after logging in

    Since I upgraded to Yosemite I have had some problems with the login process.Hope somebody can help!
    Before upgrading I had my Users & Groups preference set to 'Display login window as Name and Password' and everything worked fine. However, since upgrading, when rebooting, I would be given the list of users, even though the preference was still name and password. If I logged in the system would boot, all of my login items would be started and then the name and password login screen would be displayed and I had to login again! I have tried changing the login option to 'List of users' and now I have exactly the same problem but I see the list of users on both occasions! It's a bit of a pain.
    It's not the end of the world as I leave the machine logged in most of the time but I would like to know what the problem is. I have tried resetting the SMC and NVRAM but it hasn't helped. The machine is a 2011 MacBook Pro and both a firmware password and filevault are enabled. I have another issue where my display keeps going to sleep, which is the subject of another thread on the forums, and I suppose this may be related as the preference in that case is to never let the display sleep.
    Any ideas would be gratefully received.
    Thanks,

    Hi,

  • Can I change iTunes & iPod display font (not font size) for selected files only?

    I loaded a Russian classical music CD into iTunes and iPod. On the original CD, titles, names etc. are written in cyrillic alphabet.  Once I loaded the CD into iTunes and on iPod this info was displayed unreadably in western alphabet.  Example:  "Èæå õåðóâèìû..." (Í. Ãîëîâàíîâ)Õîð È.
    I have cyrillic font on my Windows 7 computer.  Can I change the display font--for only these selected iTunes music files--to the cyrillic font?  Thanks!

    Does any one know how you can adjust the font size (point size) for the file
    names.
    Sadly enough you can't chance that, feel free to add a feature request for
    that, the more there ask for the bigger chance it will be realized.
    It would be great if the colors for the image name (background and font color)
    could be changed so the contrast could also be increased so it is also easier
    to read.
    And this the cheerful part, go to Bridge preferences General tap and play
    with the sliders for user interface and Image Backdrop until your satisfied.
    BTW using the slider for thumbnail size bottom right of the Bridge window to
    increase the thumbs does not increase the font but makes it nevertheless a
    little clearer.

  • Can't change login language

    Can you please help me in my issue?
    I can not change the login language eventhow I follow the instruction do do it from System Preferences.  When I try the Terminal I can not put my pasword.
    Thank you in advance!

    I understood what you were saying about not seeing the password typed.
    I'm sending you another screenshot, after I entered my password and 2 screenshots from System Preferences.
    Thow the language (if I correctly understand) should be English, in login window and in every porgramme I launch Greek language is set as default.

  • How can i change the windows structure into mac structure

    Before i had a mac i used my iPod on a windows computer. When i connect my iPod to my mac i see that i can only repair my iPod. I can't update . It sais that only Ipods with a mac structure can be updated.
    So is there a way to change the windows structure to a mac structure?

    You cannot change a Windows iPod into a Mac iPod without restoring it, which erases its contents. To restore it, use the repair button you saw.

    Just a quick note -- It looks like you have accidentally hit the 'report' link rather than the 'reply' link.  That sends a message to the moderators.  Generally when that happens, we copy the text back to the thread.  In this case, it looks like you recreated the content.  In any event, if you were wondering where your posts went ....
    edit: On second look, it is not quite the same....
    That's not right, It's still not changing the Title bar theme. I want the top bar to look like this: http://www.stellingwerff.com/clearlooks-metacity.png
    NOT like this: http://www.muylinux.com/wp-content/uplo … named3.png Which is how it does at the moment.
    and
    I don't know anymore... lxappearance is telling me i'm using the clearlooks widgets, with Default gnome icons, and the whiteglass cursor theme.

  • How can I change the Video Display Mode when the Monitor displays UNSUPPORTED MODE?

    While setting up my new monitor, I changed the computer Video Display mode to 120 Hz by accident.  Now I can't see a thing on the monitor other than the words UNSUPPORTED MODE.
    My system is a newer HP Pavilion p7-1423W running Windows 8.1 with Intel i5-2320 3ghz
     I have tried the Startup mode by tapping ESC on powerup but the startup options don't help.  And the F11 option on the menu just makes the Startup screen disapear and returns the monitor to UNSUPPORTED MODE.  Tapping F8 doen't work and tapping F12 just puts me into the bios menus which don't help.
     How can I put the integrated Video Card back to a supported video mode when I can't see the screen?
    This question was solved.

    Try the shift key + F8. If you can get in- doing a System Restore to a day before you messed up the setting should work without a need for Safe Mode.

  • How can I change the event display in an APEX 4.2 calendar?

    Colleagues:  The APEX calendar feature is pretty neat, but of course there's a feature I'd like to use but can't find how/where to change it.  In other calendaring apps (e.g., Thunderbird) when an event is logged, like tomorrow's staff meeting, the time is blocked out vertically for the length of the event.  So for example: if staff is from 2pm-4pm, both 2-3 and 3-4 are colorized so a quick visual will show what times during the day are not available.
    The APEX calendar will show a colored bar for the start time of the event, but not a blocked-out vertical for the entire event.  Make sense?  Any way I can change the calendar/event view to accommodate this?
    Thanks for your help.

  • Can you change the volume display at bottom of screen to the song time instead?

    I have just bought a new Ipod Nano and really like it!  The only problem I'm having is when playing songs the bottom of the screen shows the volume level rather than how far it is through the song in time (like the old nanos used to show).  I find it really annoying not knowing at a quick glance how much more of a song is left to play.
    I know this info is displayed by double tapping the screen (although it is only shown temporarily).  Is there a way of changing the volume level icon at the bottom of the screen to display the song time instead?
    Thanks in advance.

    There is not.  You can let Apple know how you feel about it using the form on this page.
