Can't see/access Drop Box in one user account

Here's an odd problem. We have four user accounts on our iMac. I can see and access everyone's Drop Box except for one user. No one can access that user's Drop Box. When you navigate to MacHD > Users > User1 > Public, that's as far as you can go. Drop Box does not show up. You can still drop files into Public.
I checked the Sharing and Permissions for User1's Public folder and Drop Box, and they match the settings for all the other users. I also looked at the Shared and Locked checkboxes, and they match the other users.
I'm stumped. It's no big deal, really, since you can still drop stuff off into Public, but it's also something that's not working right.
Anyone have an idea what could be wrong?

Snap And like you said, I have both machines set up with exactly the same settings. Another bug or something I'm doing wrong? Please reply if you figure out the solution.

Can the SidHistory attribute be moved from one User account to a different User account in the same Forest/Domain?

Hello,
Can the SidHistory attribute be moved from one User account to a different User account in the same Forest/Domain manually with Active Directory Users and Computers or with something like Powershell? it would seem to me this is a safe operation.
Thanks for your help! SdeDot

Hi,
In addition, please also take a look at the below thread:

Multiple users under my name, can I transfer files/data onto just one user account if I have an external H.D. when I tried to delete info off one of the accounts it said I did not have permission? I assume I was in an account that was not admin.

I noticed I have set up 4 Admin user accounts under my own name with diff. variations as seen in the attchment. Some have a diff. password to log on to which I am able to do. This computer is used for my business and I need info that is scattered on the other 3 accounts to be in/on ONE admin account.
I don't know how i ended up with multiple accounts. Maybe due to having two 24" iMacs and multiple iPhones & iPad2 for me and family.
I use this computer for business and personal.
Due to multiple Admin user accounts I have important info scattered on the other accounts resulting in some accounts have some of the info to others having much more but not ALL. Some accounts have from a couple hundred songs, podcasts, etc. etc. to a few 1,000 on another Admin account.
I want to consolidate ALL of my info, files. songs, podcasts, pictures & email etc. into one Admin account and delete the other accounts to reduce confusion.
I was told by my local Apple authorized service shop that it is not easy but moving most of the info is possible. Their caveat was email would probably not be able to be moved other than forwarding each email I wanted out of each account and opening in the account I wanted to consolidate into.
As a side note, I get an error message at times saying that I do not permission/authority to delete / move files? What might be the issue when I encounter this type message?
Thanks for any help.

One user account can't connect to VPN on Server 2012

Problem with Server 2012 VPN Access. I have one user account that won't connect to RAS and I am stumped. No other account is having a problem. The permissions are correct, the connection settings are correct. But it will not connect
no matter what I do. The account will not connect from any computer. But if I use another account in the connection it connects no problem. The account will connect to Remote Web Workplace no problem, Outlook is connecting to exchange,
she connects to Sharepoint 2013 no problem. Just the RAS connection won't authenticate.
I get the errors.
Error 20271 CoId={79DB7056-D8F6-489E-8988-66A171AE49B9}: The user connected from IP but failed an authentication attempt due to the following reason: The connection was prevented because of a policy configured on your RAS/VPN server. Specifically,
the authentication method used by the server to verify your username and password may not match the authentication method configured in your connection profile. Please contact the Administrator of the RAS server and notify them of this error.
Error 20258 CoId={79DB7056-D8F6-489E-8988-66A171AE49B9}: The account for user connected on port VPN1-127 does not have Remote Access privilege. The line has been disconnected.
And this account was connecting fine for a while now. Nothing has changed on the Server or her computer.
I have researched the errors, none of the fixes apply because it's only one account having problems and it looks exactly the same as other accounts that can connect
Any help would be great

Hi Karama,
Does this account belongs the same group with other accounts?
To verify if it is a issue of policy configuration, please try to create a temporary policy with no restrictions.
To create a policy with no restrictions, please follow the steps below,
Create a network policy.
Add Day and Time Restrictions into the Conditions.
In the Day and Time Restrictions, choose permit all.
In Constraints, allow all authentication methods.
Leave other settings to default value.
Move the policy to the top of the list.
If it works, please check your original policy, it should be a policy configuration issue.
If it doesn't work, please check the event of NPS, the policy preventing the authentication is logged there.
If the request matches the temporary policy, please try to reset the password of the account.
Best Regards.

I am not able to access Firefox under one user account on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

I use windows Vista and I cannot open Firefox under one user account (I keep receiving the "firefox profile cannot be loaded . . ." error message) on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

NOTE: you can skip this 1st step.
Step 1
I'm on Win7 so the paths might be slightly different... C:\Users\(YOUR PC ACCOUNT)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bnelgkol.default\bookmarkbackups ... Find the "bookmarks-[DATE].json" you want and copy it to the profile you want. You may want to change the date to a name you will recognize.
Step 2
Then on your browser "Bookmarks>Show All Bookmarks or Ctrl+Shift+B ". This will bring up the Bookmark Organizer, I think they call it Library now. From there click "Import & Back up>Restore" this will bring up a drop down with your back ups. If you followed step 1, find the json you added and select it. If you skipped step 1, from "Import & Back up>Restore" select "Choose File..." Then browser for the json you want to import. Which should be in a similar location as mentioned in step 1.
NOTE: "AppData" is a hidden folder, will have to set show hidden folders to be able to see it.

I cannot turn voiceover off in Ipad2. Also can not see accessibility button on seetings / general. Last button i can scroll is "RESTRICTION" button.

I cannot turn voiceover off in Ipad2. Also can not see accessibility button on seetings / general. Last button i can scroll is "RESTRICTION" button. I also tried triple clicking home button, still can not get over. Please help.

Are you not able to scroll down the righ-hand side of Settings > General using three fingers on the screen ?
The manual (http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad) also says that you should be able to switch voice-over off by connecting to your computer's iTunes :
Turn VoiceOver on or off in iTunes:Connect iPad to your computer and select iPad in the iTunes device list. Click Summary, then click Configure Universal Access at the bottom of the Summary screen.
So select Configure Universal Access at the bottom of the Summary tab and set 'Seeing' to 'Neither'

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/"

Thanks pvonk, I will try downloanding the book from the Iphone right now.......
Just tried to download and it wants me to buy it again? Is there some way around this? I guess I thought that was the whole point of the cloud, buy it once and access from any of your devices right?
Also, I have logged into the icloud.com as suggested and will plink around there for a bit and try to understand. It is just all so dang different that what I am used to; Apple's way, that is.
Thanks again for the Icloud tip and if you know of a way to download without making a 2nd purchase I would sure love to hear it!
Geez. one other thing (I guess I am complaining) but I bought more space in the cloud, they took my cash fast enough but have not yet increase the size of my storage space yet? Is Apple sometimes slow to get internal stuff done?

Drop Box folder in: user/public/Drop Box, how to delete it completely?

It might be kind of freaky, but the Drop Box folder in: user/public/Drop Box, how to delete it completely?, every time that i delete that folder and restart the system, it always appears, i just can't delete it!, why?. Absolutely, that i have already uninstalled the app with "appdelete".

The Drop Box folder in ~/Public is not part of the Dropbox application. It is in fact part of Mac OS X so you shouldn't need to delete it.

Can I move music and movies from one icloud account to another icloud account?

Can I move music and movies from one icloud account to another of my icloud accounts?

No. Purchased music, movies and other iTunes media is permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase it and can't be transferred to another ID. (Your purchases are stored in iTunes in the Cloud under the Apple ID used to purchase them.)

Can only export songs/ringtones to itunes on one user account

I can't for the life of me figure out why it works fine on one user account, and on the other account (there both admin accts), it appears to be exporting to itunes but, nothing ever shows up in itunes or in the itunes music folder. Any ideas on this? I have seen a few other posts with similar problems but have not been able to find a solution. Thanks in advance.
