Can't log in after install upgrade to mac os x 10.6.8.

I can't log in to my admn acct. after install the upgrade to mac os x 10.6.8.  I can use guest account and create other users with admn privileges, but when I try to log in to my user acct. the system apparently accepts but while the desktop is loading the system goes back to log in screen.  Can I downgrade to the previous mac os x version?  I can't see any of my files.  I tried to restore with timemachine, but it doesn't works

Computer does the restore but, because  I'm restoring from other Adm Acct, and system doesn't let me access any document residing on my acct. I'm just seen a lot of files with a red letter h.  What thats means??? I'm seriously considering re-install the original version 10.6.4 and then made time machine restore.  I can use the computer and mac and a fresh and new desktop with brand new applications on guest acct but where does my files gone?.  by the way I don't see parallels desktop 6 for mac applcation  nor windows.  Remember I want my files, not to change my user name
Parallels have posted some patches to download on their home page for parallels 6 users which upgraded to MAC OS 10.6.8 accepting what they call "problem with icons size on desktop"............and I don't know if download and install because that is not exactly my problem......please tell me some instructions because I want my fles.......

  • Why can't I print after I upgrade to MAC OS 10.10 (Yosemite)?

    Why can't I print after I upgrade to MAC OS 10.10 (Yosemite)?

    You need a printer driver upgrade. Check with your printer's manufacturer to see if they have a new driver available. If not, then ask their tech support for additional help.
    Meanwhile, open Print & Scan preferences, select the installed driver and click on the Delete [-] button. Then CTRL- or RIGHT-click in the list space and select Reset Print System from the context menu. Now, click on the Add [+] button to re-Add your printer. See it this helps. Be sure your printer is connected and turned on.

  • Mac OS X 10.5: Unable to log in after an upgrade install fix does not work?

    Hello:
    After running Software Update, I am unable to log in.
    I found the following support article:
    Mac OS X 10.5: Unable to log in after an upgrade install
    Article: TS1543
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1543?viewlocale=en_US
    However, upon step 8 of the instructions, the following error appears:
    delete Invalid Path
    <dscl_cmd> DS Error: -14009 (eUnknownNodeName)
    This is actually after an update (not an "upgrade"), so I'm not even sure these are the appropriate steps.
    This is the second time that I have been unable to log in after an update. The first time, I attempted to reset the password with the installation DVD; however, this resulted in "No LDAP Master" errors and I installed Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard Server on a second internal drive and configured everything again. After setting everything up on the second install, I was going to reformat the first boot drive. Unfortunately, I'm just back to where I started after running the updates. I'm not sure if having two volumes with Mac OS X Server installed makes a difference in the instructions in the article mentioned above or not.
    Another question: Is resetting the password with the installer DVD the same as using the Single User approach ("launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.DirectoryServices.plist", "ls /Users", then "dscl . -delete /Users/username AuthenticationAuthority")?
    If so, I'll just do that; however, I am hoping that the Single User approach might somehow avoid "No LDAP Master" errors again.
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

  • IMac can't log-in after regular e-update

    This is a follow up for my old post.
    My iMac-G4(flat panel) can not log-in after the on-line free software e-update provided by Apple weekly. The actual diagnosis is: start up the iMac, when the blue-bar finishes, no log-in box showing up, so I can't log-in to use. I have tried to re-install, but it could not re-install. But I ran the Hardware Test CD, it said OK. I took the iMac to Apple's Hong Kong support center, they charged me HK$600(US$80) for examination fee, then said it was the logic-board problem and needed to replace for another HK$6000(US$800) cost. I ended up not to fix it as too expensive. Anyone have opinion? Because I thought if the logic board died, how can I still able to start up and run the Hardware Test CD?

    My iMac just crashed after the latest software update - (iMac 20" Intel Core Duo, 2GB RAM, 256MB-VRAM)
    After the latest software update, the screen went grey and black boxes appeared with messages about a "panic". Needed to use power button to restart but I received the same message ("panic" and need to use power button).
    AppleCare didn't solve it - They had me "Repair Disk" (it was OK, no repair needed) then they had me try a "Archive Install" but that didn't finish (after about 40 min. it locked-up with only 2 min. to go!). I tried this 3 times with the same problem during the last 2 min. (it was installing iWeb files...)
    I have Apple Care but since they couldn't help, I plan to take it to the Apple Store today.
    I can't believe your logic board is bad either...
    Anyone else having a problem with the latest updates??

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store may prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app may be something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
    1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
    File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
    Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
    Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
    Raw Query
    as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
    4. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
    If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

  • Can't start Tomcat after installing Bea WorkShop for JSP

    Hi,
    I have been using Eclipse SDK Version: 3.1.2 Build id: M20060118-1600 and Web Tools Project 1.0.2 and Tomcat 5.0 and Tomcat 5.5 for about 2 months with no problems. But now I Can't start Tomcat after installing Bea WorkShop for JSP plug-in. I get "Server Tomcat v5.0 @ localhost failed to start". Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I installed BEA Workshop for JSP Version: 3.1.0
    Build id: 536. I only wanted to install the plug-in to my existng Eclipse 3.1 / WTP application. The only option that I saw was to download the entire FullWorkshopFreeInstall-536.zip, which is 192,496 KB. During the installation, there is a screen that you can specify to only install the plug-in - and I selected that option. Today, I chose to uninstall the BEA Workshop for JSP and then I was again able to start Tomcat server. I then did a complete install of BEA Workshop for JSP into a totally separate location. My original Eclipse installation still works fine, but my Workshop for JSP Version (which is now a completely new installation) has the same problem with Tomcat that I reported with the plug-in. I am using j2sdk1.4.2_08 and have tried both Tomcat 5.0 and Tomcat 5.5. I have the same problem with both Windows XP Home Edition and Windows XP Professional.
    Thanks for your assistance.

  • Can't Start Portal After Install

    After downloading and installing the of evaluation Portal 4.0 SP1, I get the following message upon startup when I enter the system password that I entered during installation:
    Starting WebLogic Server ....
    The WebLogic Server did not start up properly.
    Exception raised:
    java.lang.IllegalAccessError: try to access method weblogic/management/internal/
    Helper.preloadMBeanInfos()V from class weblogic/management/Admin
    at weblogic.management.Admin.initialize(Admin.java:210)

    at weblogic.t3.srvr.T3Srvr.run(T3Srvr.java:202)
    at weblogic.Server.main(Server.java:35)
    Reason: Fatal initialization exception
    I even tried "weblogic" for the system password and I get the same message.
    What password should I use to start the server?

    I've followed the directions and am experiencing the exact same problem. Brand
    new installation of Weblogic server 6.1 SP2 with examples. That install is working.
    Then added Portal 4.0 SP1, updated the license file and I have the same issue
    with the Illegal access exception resulting in the "Fatal initialization exception"....
    Hmm!

    Below listed are the common errors you run into during installation
    process:
    - You need to have the correct version numbers of both the weblogic
    server and the portal server. For instance the portal server 4.0 (eval
    copy) will only run on WebLogic 6.1 SP1. So check the edocs for
    supported platforms
    - Make sure you have the installed the full version of the weblogic
    server (including examples)
    - Finally, you need to run the UpdateLicense.cmd file to update the
    license.bea under ur Bea Root
    Give it a shot after u have checked all of the above three - goodluck
