Cannot Create New Account

Created new user account and then created new user in iChat. All attempts to log in to the new iChat account give error message that either user name or password is incorrect. Have created two additional (and different) account/password combinations with the same result.
Have trashed both com.apple.iChat.AIM.plist and com.apple.iChat.plist but no luck.
Problem is on Power Mac G4
Suggestions most welcome.

Hi George,
Did you create .mac or AIM accounts when you created new users in iChat? I don't mean to make you sound like a fool, and I'm probably just misunderstanding your post, but it almost sounds to me like you created a new account on your computer (Like "User: George Password: abc123") that would be used to log into OS X and then were trying to use George/abc123 to connect with iChat.
If that is not the case, are you trying to connect with a .mac or AIM account? That'll be a good place to start the troubleshooting.

  • When I attempt to send a text from the new iPad, a dialog box appears with the option to either sign in with Apple ID Password or Create New Account. I try signing in using my Apple ID password but IMessage informs me that email address cannot be verified

    When I attempt to send a text from the new iPad, a dialog box appears with the option to either sign in with Apple ID Password or Create New Account. I try signing in using my Apple ID password but IMessage informs me that email address cannot be verified because it is already in use ??? What am I doing wrong?

    settings -> iTunes & App Store
    click on apple ID listed there
    select Sign Out
    sign in with the proper account
    from then on, when the store ask for your password it should be with the correct ID

    You can't.  Apps and really all content purchased/downloaded through one Apple ID is forever tied to that Apple ID.  In the case of Apps they will always request that Apple ID to update as they are licensed to that Apple ID.
    In reality, the Apps were licensed to that Apple ID by the developer.  And cannot simply be given away to you for you to use.
    He should have wiped the iPod clean so you could set it up for your use without any of his accounts or purchased content as you are not really licensed to any of those Apps.
    Your friend should have followed this support document before giving the iPod to you:

  • Cannot create new folders in Outlook

    I just bought a new PC computer.  I installed MSFT Office Professional Plus 2010.  I opened Outlook and added in (i) the pst folder I had set up from my previous Vista
    computer (also with Outlook 2010), (ii) my hotmail account, (iii) my at&t/yahoo account and (iv) my gmail account.  I cannot create new folders in any of them.
    When I right click anywhere in the navigation pane and select "New Folder..." I get the following error message:
    "Outlook cannot read the registry information.
    -Close and restart Outlook.
    -Reinstall Outlook
    -Reinstall Microsoft Exchange or other e-mail system."
    I tried all three, including removing and reinstalling Office and removing all of the email accounts/pst files and re-adding and still have the problem.
    If I try to right-click properties on any of the accounts, I get the same error message, with the following additional language first:
    "Cannot display 'General' page. This page will remain visible, but is not available."
    Not sure what is left to try.
    Appreciate any ideas.

    Hi
    Thank you for using
    Microsoft Office for IT Professionals Forums.
    From your description, If the PC from clean install, you can follow these steps to test this issue.
    1.      
    Start the Outlook in safe mode,
    Press and hold the CTRL key,
    and then click Outlook.
    If the problem does not occur in the safe mode, this issue might be related to some third-party add-ins in the Office program, we can try to disable them.
    2.      
    Create a New profile & PST file to test this issue
    If this problem does not occur in the new Outlook profile & PST, the old Outlook profile is corrupted. We can delete that and use a new Outlook profile.
    3.      
    Make sure the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office
    key permissions to allow full permissions to all users
    Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might
    occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how

    e)     
    Click the registry key for the user who is currently logged on, and ensure that
    Read and Full Control permissions are both set to
    Allow.
    f)      
    Click the Advanced button, ensure that the user who is currently logged on is selected, that
    Full Control is listed in the Permissions
    column, and that This Key and Subkeys is listed in the

    i bought  recently a second hand apple i phone 4s but now i cannot creat new apple id .

    I suspect you're referring to the 3 free iCloud account limit on an iOS device. If so, there's no way around this. Once that limit is reached, you'll have to create the iCloud account on another iOS device or computer, then setup that account on your phone.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • Selling iBook, how restore OS X so it would play the intro and allow to create new account?

    So I'm about to sell my iBook G4 which has Leopard in it.
    Is it possible to restore it to a state where when the new owner boots it up it plays the intro video and allows him to create new account, without the old account still being present? I don't have anything important stored on that machine so of course I could just delete all stuff and leave it there but it would nice to allow the new owner to enter his own information, I tend to enter false information so my actual name or address etc. is not stored anywhere.

    Perform a Erase and Install on your iBook G4 and don't complete the set up assistant after the installation.This will take care of your concern.

  • Cannot create new folder?

    I have just moved to a new hosting and have connected to it

    get
    "An FTP error occured - cannot create new folder .
    Access denied. The file may not exist or there could be a

    Any idea?

    Hi,
    Did you make any changes before the issue appears?
    Before going further, you may try the

  • Cannot Create New Mailbox

    Hi all,

    solved by executing setup.exe /preparedomain
    and I found one of the server in container ADSIEdit were disabled inheritance. execute setup.exe /prepareAD, reboot the server (because it
    ask for it), then execute setup.exe /preparedomain
    cheers ! :)

  • Ordering Prints - "Create New Account" Bug

    I would like to order some prints through Aperture. However, when it asks me to sign in, I enter my information and it takes me to a "Create New Account" page. My Apple ID is valid and works will all other Apple products. Anyone else experiencing this bug?
    I'm using a RD MacBook Pro, and the latest version of Apeture 3.
    Thanks everyone.

    Just enter all your current information, as if it was asking to "confirm" it, not "create" a new account.  You may even have to do this twice, for reasons I've never been able to figure out, but it WILL work if you just input your current information.  It's weird.

  • Help creating new account

    I want to make an account for my brother who just got some itunes music cards but everytime I try it asks me for a credit card. When I made my account before I didnt need to use a credit card but I forget how I did it. Could someone help me make his account without giving out a credit card number.

    #1 Log off from any account
    #2 Choose to redeem in iTMS
    #3 Create new account
    now there will be an option to skip CC details.
    Creating an account before redeeming will alway require CC details.
    It's a little bit tricky.

    Hello Victor.
    You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.
