Cannot login with my Skype Account name,

I have tried to login to Skype and the following error returns:
"Sorry, we didn't recognize you sign-in details. Please check etc. etc."
My account does exist as I have asked my friends if they can see it. Why has this happened? I have searched the Skype so-called knowledge base and cannot find an answer. Does Skype disable accounts if inactive for any period of time?
Any help is appreciated,
Solved!

Completely disable login with my Skype account and password

I have set up my Microsoft Account to use two step authentication. Is there any way to completely disable login with my Skype account and password? Otherwise the additional layer of security would be wasted. I have changed my Skype account password to a very strong one, but still...

Cannot login with Active Directory Account

Hello,
I am testing SnowLeopard (10.6.1) for deployment in my labs for the Spring 2010 semester. We use local home directories. This is a brand new fresh install of SL, on a freshly formatted Hard Drive.
When bound to Active Directory I can get any AD account that I've tested (5 different accounts) to authenticate except one, which happens to be my own personal AD account.
The secure.log shows these entries when I attempt to login:
Oct 9 14:18:29 mac-0017f20fc40 SecurityAgent[209]: User info context values set for ctarbox
Oct 9 14:18:29 mac-0017f20fc40 authorizationhost[208]: Failed to authenticate user <ctarbox> (tDirStatus: -14090).
Considering that I could log in with other accounts, and after resetting my AD password then still not being able to authenticate, I came to the conclusion that I had a corrupt OU in Active Directory.
I contacted one of our AD admins and had him delete both of my AD accounts: ctarbox and ctarbox1 then recreate both accounts. I still cannot login to AD with my ctarbox account.
I can still login to my current lab machines anywhere on campus running 10.5.8 with ctarbox.
I am baffled by this. I have been authenticating to Active Directory since 10.1 and have never seen anything like this.
Any idea, anyone?

I have found the solution to my problem. I have accounts in two different domains in our AD tree. I'll called these domains Domain A and Domain B.
Domain A is the primary domain for authentication to our public computing labs.
Domain B is a secondary domain for authentication to shared resources for faculty/staff.
Both accounts have the same user ID, but different passwords. In my Directory Utility>Advanced>Administrative window I have the option "Allow authentication from any domain in the forest' checked.
With this option checked Directory Utility in 10.6.1 will allow me to authenticate Domain B, but not Domain A.
With this option checked in Directory Utility in 10.5.8 just the opposite is taking place, I can authenticate to Domain A, but not Domain B.
It seems that somewhere in the upgrade to 10.6.1 the search policy for Active Directory has changed. My workaround is to uncheck this option and specifically choose Domain A in the search policy.

Cannot login with external LDAP accounts.

Hi,
I installed ApacheDS and configured Weblogic. Weblogic can import the LDAP users and groups. And I can use LDAP account to sign in Weblogic Console and EM. But BIEE always prompt "An invalid User Name or Password was entered", even though I added the LDAP account to BIAdministrator role.

Refer to this blogpost to make sure you have followed all the steps correctly: http://www.addidici.com/blog/?p=8
You need to add the account from LDAP to BISystem Application role.

How to find out Skype account name

Preface: Sorry, I think this is really simple thing but I tend to be verbose when I'm trying to describe the issue. How would I find out what is my Skype account name? Or more precisely the login name? (I mean of course my own name is on the accout, but I want the "account" name, not the name on the accout, heh) I have an old hotmail account, which has become live/messanger/microsoft account and now after Messanger was removed, Skype account as well. I can login into any of these by logging from the Live/Microsoft account, but what is my Skype account if I want to login using that? On Skype program and website, both list my hotmail address as well as "live:hotmailaddess" part before @ character. But I can't login to Skype using the address, "live:address" or just "address". I can't find anything else on the pages. I tried logging out from the website and then using the recovery option "I want to find out my Skype account" (the website is in Finnish so my translation might not be accurate to what it actually is in English). I typed in the hotmail adress many times since the it asked it for many times a row and continued the steps, finally I typed in the address and capcha , then again it asked the address. I think I made a mistake there, because I think it actually wanted on the last time the alternative address. The website was not too clear about it specially since it wants the address so many times. It displays only a small portion of it and since my alternative address is practically identical to the main address, just an underscore is changed to hyphen, well...So finally it displayed "IF the account address is xxxx for whatever a code has been sent to it". Yeah well since I guess typed in the wrong address, I've received nothing on either. This whole ordeal started today few hours ago when I tried to login to the **bleep** thing. I updated the Skype program, since an upgrade have been around for some time now, and since it always resets the autologin information, I had to manually type them in, and it kept asking for alternative verification address or phone number. There was no way to bypass that. Just to make it clear, it wanted me to give such info, not use the alternative thing since so far I've never given any alternative ways to login or reset account.
Somehow at first I was able to finally get in without giving any alternative info, I kept trying to login over and over, occasionally I tried to login using the "Skype account", but since I don't know the account I could only login using the Live/Microsoft account. Then I logged off from the program, and after that I tried to login back, it wanted to manually login again, and it kept asking from the alt details and I couldn't anyhow bypass that. I also tried logging into Hotmail/Outlook.com from the website as well as Skype(from website), both ways wanted the info but to both I finally somehow managed to get in. I mean the websites, logging inside the program failed all the time. Anyway finally I remembered I had made the second account so I figured I give it as alt address. I got that thing in OK, the second address just has hotmail.com, so I could easily login there by another browser and that didn't want any extra verifications. But before this last attempt, I had used the same "I want to know my Skype ID" feature from the program. To clarify, before linking the second address to my main address. But since I was having so much trouble with getting into Skype(and as well as it's Messanger part) I think I didn't check them out. Plus I had trouble getting into the mail as well, although I finally got in. Soooo...the two mails received in the primary address, "Your Skype Name token" messages which have a link and verification number, they won't work anymore. I try either, and neither works. My guess is they got invalidated by the third request or by either finally adding the alternative address. AND, since the third time I mistook it asking the same **bleep** address for the third or fourth time in the last request and gave the main address not the alt address it probably didn't send the code anywhere. And now I tried again the thing but it refuses to go any further than the first step, because it says I've used it too often in the last 24 hours. So, surely the account name should read someplace?I repeat, I can perfectly login into Skype in web and the program, I know the password and hotmail addresses and all that, but the two types of accounts it lists after logging in, neither work for login. Or does it mean I don't actually have a Skype account, just the Live/Microsoft account which I can only use to login to Skype using that other option? I'm starting to think this is the case.

I am definetly starting to think I don't actually have a skype name. Now I tried again since the 24 hour restriction went off. First from Skype webpage ->sign in -> forgotten your skype name? ->there I enter my hotmail address ->send mail ->then it moves off from Skype and into account.live.com, where it's no longer asking anything Skype related: Why are you having trouble signing in?I forgot my passwordI know my password, but can't sign inI think someone else is using my Microsoft account
So I obviously choose the second option last time since it's the closest available option for my problem, but then it gives me options: Get back into your accountWe can help you reset your password and security info. First, enter your Microsoft account and the characters shown. So again it asked for my address and captcha, and after that I could choose to "verify my identity" by choosing the alt email, but since that is slight garbled and cannot be differented from the primary address, and I was already so pissed off from typing the same address over and over, so at that point I mistakenly wrote the main address again where it wanted to verify it by asking the whole alternative address and thus it never sent the account reset email for the Microsoft/Live account. But since I originally had no problems with that Microsoft account, all I wanted was the "Skype Name", and since the only way to try to find it jumps into the restore Microsoft account thing, I'm assuming I don't have one which I could use to login to Skype, so all I can use is the Microsoft/Live account.

I had renamed my user login name and assumed that there will be no change in the settings and files. When I login with the new profile name everything is gone. How can I get back all my files and settings?

Merge 1 microsoft account with 2 skype accounts

Hi
I have my main microsoft account and 2 skype accounts (personal and work) and I beleive what I want to achieve is in the interest of both me and microsoft but I have not seen a solution for this
My question is this:
Is there any plans to be able to merge 1 microsoft account with multiple skype accounts?
Idealy this would mean that I could have 1 central profile (Microsoft)
and depending if I was at work or at home I could sign in with my respective skype accounts and have different skype friends lists. Without an easy way of doing this I will not be able to get rid of redundant information.
A great feature addition to this would be that anyone that requested me to add them , If I had the accounts merged under 1 MS account, I could get an option to that skype profile I would add them (all, personal or work)

(un)fortunately microsoft is not google and doesn't want any kind of single sign in as it seems, there is no way to do this, you have to make login-logout fests.

"Cannot login. Make sure the name and password are correct."

I've just created a new iAS6 SP4 instance on a new machine (new local LDAP, SPARC Solaris8). But when I startup a ksvradmin tool I get the msg: "Cannot login. Make sure the name and password are correct."... and I cannot access to admin my new instance :-(. I don't understand about what user and what pw it tell me. I did this instalaltion on other machine by the same way but without any problem. On my other machine I don't have to identificate me when I use the ksvradmin tool.

Sorry I wasn't being very clear either. I was assuming that you were trying to follow option 2 from Joe D's post on 3-24-2004. Once you know what environment variables have changed you can go the control panel to set them. Some of them will may be new variables that you will need to define. Others may already exists in which case you want to append to them.
The other option is as Joe D said, which is to run VCVARS32.bat before you start Xmath. You could even make a batch file such that instead of starting xmath.bat directly you call your own batch file (.bat). This batch file would have two lines. One to run VCVARS32.bat and the second to run XMATH.bat. If you are not familiar with batch files there are a lot of resources on the web about them. In this case all you would need is:
<path to vcvars32.bat>\vcvars32.bat
"C:\Program Files\National Instruments\MATRIXx\bin\xmath.bat" -v 71.6
The -v 71.6 is optional. it specifies to specifically open version 7.1.6. If you leave it off the newest version will be opened.

Cannot login with mobile account when server is switched off

Hello all,
First of all, my condolences to the Jobs family.
OK. On with my problem. I apologise in advance if this has been answered before. I've trawlled through various boards and I can't seem to find an answer.
I'll try to keep it brief.
I've set up a mac mini with lion server. Done all necessary updates.
I have a lion macbook which is the client.
On server, created an Open Directory etc..
I created 2 mobile network accounts on the server. Set preferences etc.. Added both to workgroup.
Added the client to the domain in system prefs login options.
Logged into the 2 accounts on the client. All working well. Can see my mounts. Mobile accounts created successfully and syncing working.
So, the problem I have is, when I shutdown the server, my mobile accounts on the client disappear. Also, the login screen states, 'Network accounts are unavailable.'
I've been looking at this for a week now and it's driving me mad. I must have missed something - can anyone shed any light on this please?
With thanks, Paul.

oh well - gave up and reinstalled lion server.
GROAN!

Cannot login with AD credentials on iMac

Greetings:
I have a brand new 27" Intel iMac that had been allowing AD logins just find until today. Now, no matter what I do, unbinding, rebooting, manually joining domain (dsconfigad), etc I cannot login using my AD credentials. This had been working flawlessly until today. I can bind to AD no problem. When I go to login with my known good account, I just get the window shake. Logging in with a local account, I see error messages in the console of:
DNS Update Failed & Enter Machine Password
The machine account is already staged in our OU. I am not clear what the DNS error is alluding to.
reading through these postings: http://www.macwindows.com/snowleopardAD.html
I tried disabling creating mobile accounts at login. However that did not fix the issue.
I believe our campus is running Win2K8 AD servers. Our campus DNS appliance is a separate box, but should know how to delegate to AD (?). The other 10.6.3 machines we have, are authenticating against AD fine.
Any ideas?

Marcus is correct - the ZAM administration accounts (ZAM 7.x) are stored (encrypted) within the ZAM database.
Within ZAM 7.x there is no way to integrate this with AD (either by LDAP referral or some kind of identity / password sync) and AFAIK no plans to add this.
I believe in the ZCM version of asset (and I hope the standalone version of ZAM10 still in dev) you set up the AD account(s) that is/are allowed Admin etc. access within ZAM, then LDAP referrals are used to authenticate via AD. I don;t know this for sure, though.

I just updated my MacBook pro early 2011 model to OSX 10.9 and was forced to create a new user(administrator) and ended up with a different configuration. If I login with my original user name everything is back. How can I get rid of the other user name?

I have two user names with Administrator privelages and my MacBook keeps booting up to the wrong one and I have the wrong configuration since I updated to OSX 10.9. I would like to get back to my original User name which I used to boot up to. When I go to the User Groups and Preferences it doesn't allow me to delete the un-wanted user.
Does anybody have any suggestions how I can fix this? I can't seem to recover Time Capsule back-ups prior to the OSX upgrade even though I have been faithfully backing up to a Time Machine.
Help please.

First of all, open System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Options, and set your old user account in "Automatic login". By doing this, your computer will always log in with your old account.
Then, log in your old account, where you will be able to delete the new user that OS X Mavericks forced you to create. Other users have reported the same problem
