Cannot login after installing 10.6.1 Update

Hello everybody,
i installed the 10.6.1 Update from Software-Update.
After rebooting, i entered my password and then...
nothing happens. It seems that i am logged in successfully,
but nothing load up, i can still move my mouse, but the only
thing i see, is the standart SL wallpaper.
what i tried:
- repair permissions, etc. (booted from DVD)
- cleared caches
- created a completely new useraccount, but the same problem
- starting in safe boot mode (works perfectly)
Has anyone an idea, what this problem could be and how
I can solve it?
Thank you all for your help in advance
Best regards
Ben

i created the new account in system-preferences with my normal account(admin)
in safe-boot mode.
i reinsatalled the Update, nothing changed...
very strange: I reinstalled Snow Loepard over the existing SL installation, and the problem still exists.
So i think, it's a problem in my homedirectory?
But why exists the problem at a new account?
Don't understand this...
Perhaps the easiest way is to save my private data and do a complete
new install...

Failure: Cannot login after Lion 10.7.2 update

I cannot login after performming the update realeased today.
After boot, at the login screen, I see the user in the circles. Upon selecting a user, entering the password, the spinning circle below the Apple appears. It spins for a few mnutes, then return with a NOT symbol as the spinner contues to spin endlessly. After a while, the fan kicks into overdrive.
I tried to do the boot in recovery, start terminal, resetpassword, restart, login as root steps, but do not see an option to login as root upong restart - just the User circle icon.

I have a similar problem, but it looks like I have solved it.
I rebooted holding down ommand-R to get to the recovery-HD mode. From there I chose the options to re-install Lyon (requires internett access because it downloads a new copy).
Since I have multiple disks attached (the internal and a bootable backup drive) it asked which disk I wanted to use. When I chose the internal drive it told me it was locked and asked for the FileVault unlock code. After that things seemed to proceed properly.
I suspect that the problem is in some way tied to my use of FileVault.

Cannot Login after installing Leopard

Hello,
I just installed Leopard, and after restarting I had the "blue screen" problem. I followed the instructions (removing the the "ApplicationEnhencer.bundle" file from the troubleshooting section on the Apple website), and after restarting, I was able to acces the login page.
After entering my personal password, I had the following message: "you have to restart you computer by pressing the start switch for several seconds".
The only thing I can do is to login via other users of this computer but I cannot access my own account anymore!
Can somebody help me?
Regards,
Lins.
P.S: here is the error report:

Can't login after installing Oracle 10g on XP Service Pack 1

Hi, I am completely new to using oracle and cannot login after completing the install process. I followed the article:
http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/oracle/115320/3
in order to install and unlock the relevant accounts (such as "SCOTT"). But I keep getting the following error message when attempting to login (at both the "http://myservername/em" and "http://myservername/isqlplus" urls):
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
After a few of those errors I also get an understandable "account locked" error message.
Can anyone suggest fields for "username", "password" and "contact identifier" that might enable me to login?! And why can't I use the "Global Database Name" and password that I supplied during the installation process?
oh, and does it make a difference that I'm using "Parallels Desktop" to run windows from my mac?
Thanks very much for any help, because I really need to get this running quickly!

Open SQL*Plus ... all learning of Oracle should start at the SQL*Plus command line.
Assuming you are logged in to the operating system as the same user that installed the Oracle software on SQL*Plus in the Start -> Programs menu.
Under username type "/ as sysdba" without the double-quotes and leave the other two dialog box fields empty.
Now enter:
SQL> alter user scott account unlock identified by tiger;
SQL conn scott/tigerIf this works you need to proceed by getting a beginning Oracle book. The one's offered by Oracle Press are among the best for your level or preferably find a class personal mentor in your area.

But XP SP1? Why? SP2 is the minimum for a system with some level of security.
In the future always post a complete version number (3 decimal places) as well as, as you did, complete error messages. That will help you get good answers.

Problems shutting down after installing 10.5.3 update?

Has anyone had any problems shutting down there IMac's after installing 10.5.3 update? I've tried shutting down twice and the image that appears when shutting down seems to go in an endless loop an doesn't shut down.

Can you restart from the menu and hold the shift key down, until the Mac
boots in a SafeBoot login screen; then choose Disk Utility (shortcut under
GO in Finder window, to Utilities folder) and run 'repair disk permissions'
then restart the computer normally...(?)
You may also have to consider starting the computer from the OS X
installer disc and choose from an option menu there (not to install)
and choose to use Disk Utility from the booted installer disc, to run
'repair disk' from there? You could also run 'repair disk permissions'
while booted from that installer disc, but maybe you'd still have to
repair those from the running system for best effect once it is back
running from the hard drive's system.
Some minor issues can happen after an update, usually just repairing
disk permissions before installing the update, and/or running up in
SafeBoot, can help. There are other things to try and do, if these don't
help that much. The state of the system prior to an update is important;
since an update can't fix anything otherwise non-related to an update.
Maintenance issues aside, after you repair disk permissions, safeboot,
and restart, if there still is an issue, you could try to download the Combo
OSX 10.5.3 update file and install it over your system; and then repair
disk permissions again after it finally restarts normally.
Was the 10.5.3 update a smaller (delta) file or was it the Combo (large) file?
Good luck & happy computing!

After installing the latest ipod update some of my purchased songs no longer play

After installing the latest ipod update some of my purchased songs no longer play (though they still play on the computer). When I tested it on another computer it claimed that computer was not authroied to play these songs even though I was just playing them directly off the ipod. Even more strange is that I alos have a number of songs loaded on my itunes from albums I loaded and I am fairly sure these songs were ones I recorded rather than purchased but now they appear on my purchased list.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

After installing 10.7.2 update the OS does not boot. I tried to recover from recovery hd disk but after 3 attempts I am still not able to download lion! Any thoughts????

Try the Lion Community, and bookmark the notebook community (this is not).
You will probably need to provide others with more information too.

Low Signal Strneght after installing 6.0.2 update

Hi,
I am recieving low signal strneght after installing 6.0.2 update.Any fixes ? or anybody

Oops I meant cellular w/o the data.
You can try doing a reset, hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
if that doesn't help then try - settings - general - reset - reset network settings.
if that doesn't help, then contact your phone carrier and see if they can help.

fans on full bore after installing 10.9.2 update. fix?

Same here. I've reset pram, smc, checked for any CPU intensive apps, bought new battery, even opened case and blew dust out of fans. Was going to do a heat sink clean but another thread brought up the idea of Mavericks being the culprit. I hadn't thought of it before but I'm starting to think it has to do with Mavericks.

You need to delete and redownload them to do that. This may require repurchasing paid ones.
