Changing Account Log In?

When I first got myself an iMac, I was like a kid with a new toy, setting this that and the other up all over the place, including iChat with a rather silly .mac name, since then I've got myself a proper.mac account with a more sensible name, question is, how can I use my proper .mac account to log into iChat instead of my silly free trial one, which I no longer need. I've searched in Preferences and settings all to no avail. Can it be done?

Hi,
In iChat go to the Preferences > Accounts pane.
In here use the Bottom Left + button
Chose the type of Account you are going to Add from the top drop down.
Enter the Screen Name.
Enter Password if you want iChat to Remember it.
Use the Done Button.
The "Account" Screen Name should then appear with others in the list on the left of the Accounts Pane
The "Description" can then be edited (As My GoogleTalk one is at the top)
iChat 4 and 5 allow you to drag this List into any order you want.
Highlight the account you do not want to use and press the - (minus) Button.

Provisioning log is not available on Access request type Change Account

Hi,
So I have and issue when I try to submit a request to add a role to a user and I'm trying to understand what could be the reason for it. Basically I have a workflow that works perfectly for a "Change Request". I can see that all the steps are executed and then at the end of the request when is suppose to do the actual role assignment I see the message "Provisioning log is not available" then the approval path is finish and the request is closed but when I take a look at the user in the back end the role is not assign. In terms of access I have try giving SAP_ALL to WF-Batch, nothing shows in Yellow or Red on SLG1 and in SPRO->AC-> User Provisioning -> Define request Type I see "Change Account" with SAP_GRAC_ACCESS_REQUEST. What else can I do to troubleshoot this error?
Note: I when back to the to the AC 10.0 Pre-Implementation From Post-Installation to First Access Request and everythings looks right in terms of the AC Configuration settings.

Hi Jonathan,
In my question I was referring to SPRO - GRC/access control/user provisioning / maintain provisioning settings. Those need to be setup (min. global provisioning settings) in order to have role being assigned to user at the end of path.
Change account option you can see under request type is referring to change user master data(e.g. password/ account validity / details).
Is this system maintain by CUA? If so settings have to be different (see CUA settings in SPRO)
I would recommend moving to SP14 as in SP13 there were many bugs, by the way I believe the worst SP ever since beginning of AC is SP13 (maybe due to number), as it destroys many working functionality.

How can I change the account logged into game center?

I've been using my friend's account on my ipad to download apps. I just recently made my own apple Id and it works fine with downloading apps. However, when I go to game center it shows her account logged in. I log her out and try to log in with my own apple I'd, but when I touch the sign in button with my id and password entered it comes at me with a popup with her apple Id asking for a password. There's no feat I can change the I'd in this window, my only options are cancel and sign in or whatever and it happens every time I try to log in no matter what I put in the id and password boxes in the game center window. Help?

Open the Game Center app.
Choose "Me" at bottom.
Scroll down
Tap "Account: [youremail]@[youremailprovider.com]
Tap "Sign out."
Then sign in with whatever Apple ID you like.

My husband plugged my iPhone into his computer, created an account and now when I want to add apps it asks for his password not mine. How do I get my account back? Tried plugging it into his computer again. No prompt to change account back to mine.

Hi Trishw,
At the top of the iTunes Store window, you will see who is logged into iTunes. I'm guessing from your description, that it is your husband. If it is, click on the name to display the dropdown, log him out and sign yourself back in:\

Help!! I changed my log in screen to show a blank name and pw. Now I cannot open the computer???

Help!! I changed my log in screen to show a blank name and pw. Now I cannot open the computer???

1.Turn on the computer and when you hear the startup chime hold CMD+S. This boots the computer into single-user mode, giving you root access.
2.Once single-user mode loads (it looks like a black screen with white text) mount the hard drive. So at the prompt type in:
/sbin/mount -uw /
3. Now that the drive is mounted we can edit the file system. We need to delete a file that tells your computer that you have completed setup. So type in:
rm /var/db/.applesetupdone
4.We need the system to reboot so it can check for the file and not find it. Type in:
reboot
5.Continue setup
Be sure to select “DO NOT TRANSFER MY DATA”.
6.Finish setup and login.
7. Go to system preferences and edit that account so it HAS A NAME.

Changing account name

I set my avatar name last year for something because I thought I wouldn't use the discussions again, but now I am so is there a way to change my avatar?

Hi icantwaitformyiphone!
You can change the smiley face "Avatar", but the Alias icantwaitformyiphone, of the account you are using, cannot be changed, although you can create a new Discussions Account, with an Alias that you prefer.
You cannot delete your present account. Just stop using it, after you have created a new one.
You can use all of the same info in the new account, Email address, User name, etc, just be sure to insert a new Alias of your choosing.
But your Level(0), Points(0), Total Posts(121), Total Posts Online(121) and Registered Date(7/3/08), will not be transferred.
In the new account, your Post Counts, Points, & Level Status will all start at 0. Your Registered Date will be the date you create the new account.
Your old account, with your previous counts & level, will still be viewable, under the old Alias.
After you quit using the old account, those posts, will be archived. What that means is, that if there are no additional responses in the Threads they reside in, the Topics will get continually pushed down on the Topics list. After a certain amount of time, maybe 2 to 6 months, the Threads will be locked, so no responses can be entered. But the Threads will not disappear.
Threads in heavily trafficked Forums, may be archived more rapidly, than those in areas with less activity.
The Topics that you started using the old account, will show your Old Alias, in the Author field of a main forum page, but eventually, readers will have to keep going to the succeeding pages to view them.
If someone were to do a Discussions Search, using these parameters:
Restrict by Category or Forum: All Categories
Restrict by Date Range: All
Restrict by Username: Your Old Alias
all of your posts, created since about 11/13/05, would be found.
To create a new account,
Log out of Discussions. Delete the Apple Cookies in your browser preferences. Then follow either of these instructions.
-How Do I Create My Account?
If you haven't signed up for an Apple ID for the Apple Store or AppleCare Support website (or forgot your old one), you can create a new account on the My Info webpage. Just click the "create one" link on the right side of the My Info page. Choose your country location and preferred language from the appropriate pop-up menus, then click Create Account. In the resulting page, enter a unique name (such as your email address) in the Apple ID field and fill in your other relevant information accordingly (fields marked with * are required). Click Continue to complete the process.
-To register, click Login in the sidebar on the right side of the Discussions page. In the resulting page, click the "create one" link at the bottom of the page, then click "create one" in the subsequent page and follow the instructions to create an Apple ID. For more information, see the Apple ID FAQ page.
Those instructions, and more info, can also be viewed by clicking on ?Help & Terms of Use, in the right column of Discussions pages.

My ICloud account log in email address to an invalid email

my ICloud account log in e-mail address/ID is not correct the domain name of the e-mail was change from yahoo to AOL. Now I can not reset the ID/log in name and password on my Iphone 5 ISO 7 to restore I Phone to factory setting

You need to respond to the verification email sent from Apple by clicking the Verify Now link. Make sure you are checking the email address you used to set up your iCloud account. Check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

Why is my admin account log in disappearing after restart?

I have one admin, one standard and a guest account in my MacBook Pro, Mac OS Mavericks. When I restart or turn off and back on, I don't see my primary admin account log in. I only see the standard account and a guest account. All I can do now is log in through the standart accoung and change the account through the menu bar. It does not happen until I log off or restart. Can anyone help?

It sounds like you activated FileVault and only enabled the standard account to unlock the startup volume.
To enable other local users to unlock the volume at startup, see the heading
Letting other users unlock the drive
in this support article. Note that the Enable Users... button only appears if there is at least one user left to enable. There's an illustrated set of instructions here.

How do i change account info on my iPhone ?

Hello,
How do i change account info on my iPhone. I have registered it using my girlfriend's iTunes as i have an old operating system on my Powerbook.
I would like everything in my own name now - is it possible to do this without iTunes ?
Furthermore will I retain all the apps I have downloaded when I change the account info ?
Any help very much appreciated.
Best, Dougs

If you open the App Store on the iPhone and go the the Featured page, then scroll down to the bottom of the page you should see the account that the App Store is logged into.
You can then hit the Sign Out Button, and then sign in to your account.

TS3988 Ow can another iCloud account log in on my iPad

How can another iCloud account log in on my iPad if they need to use it

This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

Changed account name and old music files no longer can play

I changed my account name to an e-mail address that I currently use. since I moved the old one I could no longer access any longer. Well they have a feature to do that so I took it so it would be easier to remember the account and password. thing is since I changed none of the songs that I purchased with the old account name can be played any longer. they need to be Reauthorized.
No biggie right just type in the old account name and password and I'll be on my way. Wrong :P
According to the music store the old account does not exist. Well of course not that is because I changed it. I check to see my account history under the NEW account and it has all the files I ever downloaded since I first installed iTunes! If this is the case why on earth can I not play the files purchased under my old account under the new accounts name! did I make a mistake by not deauthroizing my computer before changing account? because it is not mentioned in the instructions to do so! Grrr... normally I'd just say oh well but it's most of my iTunes library!
Pleas help!

Problem Resolved!
I was sent back an e-mail stating that I did not make a second account but changed my account name from (accounts will be withheld for security) one to the other. Problem?
Files downloaded from the other account name would not work with the one that I was currently using.
Issues further complicating the matter. My computer recently was having Power supply issues and I reformated my computer several times. Not realizing that this left iTunes Music store saying that I had 5 computers authorized on my account because I had not deauthorized any of the computers each time. Couldn't really, windows crashed out and I couldn't get to it. So when I got everything ironed out on my computer. I couldn't play any of my songs becaus I had reached maximum authorizations! even Deauthorizing and reauthorizing didn't work.
Solution:: Login to your (working) account and go to your account summary. Click on the button that says "Deauthorize ALL computers" This will wipe all computers that you had associated with your account to play your songs. Not that big of deal because all you have to do is log back in. (BIG deal to ppl that don't know your password, which they shouldn't be playing yoru songs anyway!)
Once I resetted my authorization on all computers and logged back in everything was fine.
Now I think the tech that sent me the e-mail did do one thing for me. He must have enabled my old account I used to have and linked it to my current one. Because instead of my old account saying it does not exist it says it works now! yet I still login to and access my account with my new e-mail account!
So even though I would like to say everything was within my power to do myself the whole time. That is not the case. The tech did help me associate the two accounts from withing iTunes. So I can now listen to my songs at anytime I want and not be told I have 5+ computers when I only own 2 LOL

Accounting/Logging

My server appears to have both logging and accounting turned on. When I
compare the loggs to the accounting. It appears that not all requests are
being added to the accounting log. Why would this be? Also how do I
change the logging files to last longer than 7 days?
Thanks

I'll give this a try.
Thanks

I have bought an used Iphone 5. I dont have the password for the existing login id of the old owner. How do i use the phone and change the log in id?

I have bought an used Iphone 5. I dont have the password for the existing login id of the old owner. How do i use the phone and change the log in id?

Unfortunatly the only way that you can get it off is to get the old user to input the password. You may need to contact that old user and see if he can put the old password in. hope this helps.
