Console login by any other user besides Admin

I noticed that if I try to login to the console display with another user besides admin the the login will hang. Also, any other type of login to the system will not work (ssh). I was going to do an oracle database install, which requires the oracle user to be logged in. Does anyone know if there is a way around this restriction?

This isn't a normal restriction - none of my servers prevent any user logging in on the console.
I suspect there's something amiss with your setup - probably in the directory where the OS is trying to load the account data (possibly the home directory data).
Sheck the server logs, especially /var/log/system.log for any directory-based errors.

I have an icloud account with two other users besides myself. We share the same game center. We want our own. My two children want their own Clash of Clans account! What do I do?

Log out of Gamecenter and try downloading CoC again. if it doesn't prompt you with a new village, try downloading with a different apple id. if that doesn't work, you would need a new device to create a new village and transferring it to your sons device using the code in the CoC settings.

Is the AppleID listed in Settings --> Store and Settings --> iCloud the same?
If it is a totally different ID and not a slight variation of yours, I would definitely take it back to the store. You may have bought a returned item that had been setup previously.

Earbuds in any other colour besides white?

Do apple make earbuds in ANY other colour besides white? I know it's their thing, but I hate the white cable and white buds. They look grubby after a while and I want a simple black pair.
I realise the audio aren't the best with them but the cable is a prefect length for me and the volume control is useful and I am (now) used to the feel of them.

Apple only does white. Lots of other companies do other colors. Look around here: http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shopiphone/iphoneaccessories/headsets?mco=MTM3NTM3OTY

Can't log in to any other user account except admin

I have one computer (out of a lab full of 36 computers) that has a problem creating additional accounts beyond the first.
I can set up multiple other accounts (either admin, standard, or managed accounts), but I can't log in to any other accounts except the admin account. Here's what I do:
1. When the computer was unpacked I set up the admin user, and automatic login of the admin user using the usual Apple first run setup windows.
2. In System Preferences -> Accounts, I click the lock and enter my admin password so I can make other accounts. This works fine.
3. I create an account and give it a password (I've tried blank passwords too).
3a. The system warns me that automatic login is turned on (set to the admin user currently). I click the "Keep Automatic Login" button. The other account is now created and all looks well; I can see it's home folder in the Users folder.
4. I switch to the Login Options view, and choose that other account from the automatic login popup menu.
4a. The system prompts me for the account password. This is where the problem happens.
4b. On 35 of the computers, this works fine. One 1 computer, the system warns me that "You did not enter the correct password for your user account." I can click OK there, but nothing I enter for the password works.
I also tried logging out from the admin user, and I simply can not log in to any other account. I've tried one letter passwords; I've tried blank passwords; I've tried variations on account names; I've tried all-caps; I've tried all-lowercase. I can log in to the admin account with no problems; I can set up as many other accounts as I like, but I can't use any of them.
Any ideas? Should I just wipe the hard drive and re-install? That's certainly a viable option, but it's baffling me why it's only this one out of 36 computers having the problem.

Smells like a corrupted OS installation. Two options. Erase & Install or hook it up to a good machine, via target disk mode, and clone the booted machine, using something like Carbon Copy Cloner, SuperDuper!, etc., after erasing and reformatting the calcitrant machine, and see if that fixes things.

EWS API - Impersonating to update a calendar item created by any other user than a service account, raise an error "Access is denied. Check credentials and try again."

Hi,
I am new to using EWS managed APIs.
Following is the issue:
1. I am using a service account e.g. [email protected]. This user is a global administrator and also has ApplicationImpersonation role assigned. (Sign into Online Office 365 account -> Admin -> select "Exchange" tab- > select Permissions
on the left panel -> create an impersonation role -> assign ApplicationImpersonation in Roles: and [email protected] in Members: -> Click on save)
2. Create a calendar item by other user for e.g. [email protected], and invite an attendee - [email protected].
3. In a c# program, I connect to EWS service using a service account - [email protected], fetch its calendar events. If organizer of an event is some other user - [email protected] then
I use impersonation in the following way to update the calendar event/item properties- subject, body text etc.
        private static void Impersonate(string organizer)
            string impersonatedUserSMTPAddress = organizer;
            ImpersonatedUserId impersonatedUserId =
                new ImpersonatedUserId(ConnectingIdType.SmtpAddress, impersonatedUserSMTPAddress);
            service.ImpersonatedUserId = impersonatedUserId;
4. It was working fine till yesterday afternoon. Suddenly, it started throwing an exception "Access is denied. Check credentials and try again." Whenever I try to
update that event.
       private static void FindAndUpdate(ExchangeService service)
            CalendarView cv = new CalendarView(DateTime.Now, DateTime.Now.AddDays(30));
            cv.MaxItemsReturned = 25;
            try
                FindItemsResults<Item> masterResults = service.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar, cv);
                foreach (Appointment item in masterResults.Items)
                    if (item is Appointment)
                        Appointment masterItem = item as Appointment;
                        if (!masterRecurEventIDs.Contains(masterItem.ICalUid.ToString()))
                            masterItem.Load();
                            if (!masterItem.Subject.Contains(" (Updated content)"))
                                //impersonate organizer to update and save for further use
                                Impersonate(masterItem.Organizer.Address.ToString());
                                // Update the subject and body
                                masterItem.Subject = masterItem.Subject + " (Updated content)";
                                string currentBodyType = masterItem.Body.BodyType.ToString();
                                masterItem.Body = masterItem.Body.Text + "\nUpdated Body Info:
xxxxxxxxxxxx";
                                // This results in an UpdateItem operation call to EWS.
                                masterItem.Update(ConflictResolutionMode.AutoResolve);
                                // Send updated notification to organizer of an appointment
                                CreateAndSendEmail(masterItem.Organizer.Address.ToString(), masterItem.Subject);
                                masterRecurEventIDs.Add(masterItem.ICalUid.ToString());
                            else
                                Console.WriteLine("Event is already updated. No need to update again.:\r\n");
                                Console.WriteLine("Subject: " + masterItem.Subject);
                                Console.WriteLine("Description: " + masterItem.Body.Text);
            catch (Exception ex)
                Console.WriteLine("Error: " + ex.Message);
5. What could be an issue here? Initially I thought may be its a throttling policy which is stopping same user after making certain API call limits for the day, but I am still seeing this issue today.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Your logic doesn't sound correct here eg
2. Create a calendar item by other user for e.g. [email protected], and invite an attendee - [email protected]
3. In a c# program, I connect to EWS service using a service account - [email protected], fetch its calendar events. If organizer of an event is some other user - [email protected] then
I use impersonation in the following way to update the calendar event/item properties- subject, body text etc.
When your connecting to [email protected] mailbox the only user that can make changes to items within
abccalendar is abc (or ABC's delegates). If your impersonating the Organizer of the appointment pqr that wouldn't work unless the organizer had rights to abc's calendar. If you want to make updates to a calendar
appointment like that you should connect to the Organizers mailbox first update the original, send updates and then accept the updates.
When you impersonate your impersonating the security context of the Mailbox your impersonating so its the same a logging on as that user in OWA or Outlook.
Cheers

Any user can unlock any other user password protected screen?

Major problem I'm having...!
On my Macbook Air - both myself and my wife can unlock each others password protected screen saver?
Surely this shouldn't be the case...?
We are both admin - but I would of assumed each could only unlock it's own user password protected screen saver.
Any help would be appreciated.

..."That doesn't make sense...as the login window is available from that password protected screensaver also..."...
The option to switch to the loginwindow only appears if the "Fast User Switching" GUI is enabled in the "Accounts" pref pane. If that option were to be disabled and eg. a user on a shared computer went home without logging out, in the absence of "admin" access, that computer would be entirely unusable to other users short of pulling the plug, which might interrupt any background operations in progress.
I suppose the behaviour could be alterred depending on the "FUS" status, but really, what would be the point since, as you acknowledge, an "admin" user ultimately has the ability to access an open session anyway?
For reference, note that "admin" users, in addition to the "session owner" are granted the right to unlock the screen in the "/private/etc/authorization" file under the 'system.login.screensaver' key so the behaviour can be adjusted from there.

IDES - Not able to login to any other client

Folks,
I just installed SAP IDES system and successfully imported a permanent license key.
When I run SCC4, I can see that the default installation creates the following clients - 000, 001, 800, 810, 811 and 812.
I am able to login to clients 000 and 001 using sap* as user. However, I am not able to login to either 800 or 812. I have tried both sap* as well as ddic as the username. The error I get back is that either the username or password is invalid.
Can someone please suggest me what I need to do to make it work?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards,
Peter

So one option is to modify usr02 table for the password. However, I am thinking there must be a more standard way. My IDES installation was a standard one. There was nothing special about my installation.
Can someone please help?
Sadly, no other way if your SAP*,DDIC and any other existing super user is locked.
You got to delete the SAP*/DDIC from the database.
Proceed as follows:
1.Check your instant profile and make login/no_automatic_user_sapstar is set to "0" and now make a restart of your server.
Try this from command prompt.
sqlplus /nolog;
conn /as sysdba;
Now type this and take caution as this is case sensitive:
DELETE FROM <sid>.USR02
WHERE BNAME='SAP*' AND MANDT='<client no.>'
EG-->
DELETE FROM dev.USR02
WHERE BNAME='SAP*' AND MANDT='123'
Then restart your server and login as user SAP* password pass.
Hopefully this will work.
Regards,
Ashutosh

Not able to login to any webmail user

Somehow my webmail access has become corrupted. I have been able to log into webmail before. I am currently receiving the login page but when I attempt to login as any of the current users or new users that I create I get an error page stating "Unknown user or password incorrect."
I have turned Mail & Webmail on and then off again. I have restarted the server and the computer but problem remains.
Can anyone help me correct this problem?

Nothing changes suddenly by itself.
Think about what changes you made recently.
Did you change the required authentication methods? If yes, you will need to tell Squirrelmail /Webmail) as well that it needs to use a different authentication method.

Is it possible to change the fonts in an illustrator document in Indesign or any other program BESIDES illustrator?

Is there a quick way to change/replace the font of an illustrator document in inDesign or any other app? Thanks

Depends on what is in the AI file.
CD does a normally good job unless there are meshes and a particular type of transparency (I forget which one). I usually don't get "fancy" AI files. Stock & Trade, bare-bones types of files. these open in a few of the applications I use daily. That said, I never do it unless I need to return a format other than AI--because, well, why? I always try to use the originating application with the exception of older EPS files. As a lot of the daily stuff I do is screen printing, and because most every screen printer I deal with use CD, at some point the art has to go into CD.

Can I buy the Ipod nano Red in any other stores besides the apple retail store?

Can I buy the Apple Ipod Nano RED in any other retail store other than the apple store? I want to get one today but I don't want to go to the mall to get it. Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Apple only sells the iPod nano (RED) Edition at Apple Retail Stores and the Apple Online Stores, not at any other shop. However, if you want, you can search one on a different site in the Internet, but you won't find it on a different shop than an Apple Retail Store

The sleep button on my 4G iPod Touch is stuck? Any other option besides the genius bar?

I have a 4th generation iPod Touch. Everything with my iPod was working well till about a week ago. A week ago I went to use my sleep button and discovered it wasnt working. When I removed my case I discovered the sleep button was stuck pressed into the iPod.
What I was wondering is if I had any other options? Is it my best bet to run to the Genius Bar before my warranty goes out in a few weeks?

I resolved my 3194 error by deleting all the references to apple out of the hosts file. I am still having major troubles but I was able to resolve this specific error.

How to create a new user without any sample objects from any other user?

Question as the title.
I had the example dababase installed when I installed the Oracle database.
Every time, when I create a new user, there will be some example objects coming
with the new user.
How can I remove these objects from the new user?
Or, how can I create a new user without the example objects?
Thanks in advance.

I think the easiest way for you would be to use OEM.
Just locate each object that you want to remove and right click->remove. Don't bother doing this for any indexes as these will be removed when you drop the corresponding tables.
If you want to try command line through sqlplus then identify the objects you want to remove by selecting from the user_objects view while logged in as this user. This will give you the name and type of object. Then issue the relevant drop command.
It's probably worth making sure you have a valid backup first, just in case things go wrong!

Any other option besides restore? ipod software not recognized.....

I have an 80gb 5th gen. Using it with my Windows XP it was fine. I recently got a Windows Vista HP laptop and it worked fine until today, when I plugged it in and transfered music, iTunes froze midway. So I unplugged the iPod and iTunes closed. I plugged it in again and the blue screen came up saying there was a memory dump needed and it restarted the PC.
Additionally to crashing my PC, it messed up my iPod software so now I cannot listen to music or videos. The files are still on the iPod when I check through disk mode, but when I use the iPod itself no songs or movies show up. Some of the songs on the iPod when viewed through disk mode are also unrecognized when played through windows media player, a few are fine however but still do not show up on the iPod.
The files are still there when you use disk mode, but when you use the iPod no files show up. When I plug in my iPod to iTunes it says the iPod files are not readable by iTunes and that I must restore my iPod to company settings. Is there any way I can repair my iPod without having to restore it and erase all my music/videos, I have 74GB of media and some things are not on my computer anymore. Is it possible to restore the iPod to an earlier savepoint? I do not know if the iTunes program automatically creates backup points but if there is a way please let me know. I am very very reluctant to restore my iPod to company settings so help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance

I have exactly the same problem i use a 60 GB video ipod which shows that i tunes cant play content from the ipod when i connect it to any computer after connecting to the HP laptop that had vista on it. so please if someone knows how to fix it without loosing the media from the ipod tell me how to do it! i got 6500 songs on there!
