Create new User in Macbook Pro

I have problem with my MS PowerPoint where I can't save the PowerPoint created in PDF files. When I tried saving as PDF file, The message " Microsoft PowerPoint has encounter a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience"
Although MS technical has suggested a few solutions and it never work. One of the suggestion was to create a new user in the Macbook Pro and try to use the PowerPoint under the new user which I tried the problem remains. When creating a new user, all the file sin the old user login cannot be access via the new user, Can some help or give some tips on how to transfer the file from the old user to new user.

Copy all the data files into /Users/Share as the old user then log in as the new user and copy the files from /Users/Share to the home folder.

    Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    1. How to determine the model & OS?
    Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac -> More Info and look at the System info.
    It will tell you the model ID#, and serial number.
    The serial number has only three important characters, labelled A,B,C below:
    xxABCxxxx
    These are the last digit of the year, and the week of the year it was built.
    Model ID# guide is here:
    http://www.everymac.com/systems/by_capability/mac-specs-by-machine-model-machine -id.html
    2. No sound - when i click 'system preferences' and go to sound, it shows 'selected device has no output control'
    Sometimes this can be fixed one of three methods:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300832
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
    If none of the above works, you may have a hardware malfunction in your sound port. Note, if you have something connected to your audio port, it only play out through one output at a time. It does support stereo and 5.1 audio with the appropriate cables.
    3. How can i maximize the screen?
    This can mean two things:
    - You want to maximize the real estate where all the windows belong. This is done by increasing the resolution on Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Displays.
    - If you mean just enlarge windows, use the green button in the upper left to resize the window so it fits on the screen. Then the bottom right hand corner is used to resize the widnow in question.
    4. Is there any commands for 'cut & paste'?
    Edit menu has those commands. To the right of any command where a cloverleaf icon is represented, the Command key or Apple logo key is used in conjunction with the said key to issue the command.
    5. I don't see any CD drive....how does this work?
    The CD drive is normally below the wristpad on the right side. It is slot loading like that found in some automobile CD players. It supports DVD and CD burning and playback, be careful about the media used:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2446?viewlocale=en_US
    6. Any commands to drag, without a mouse?
    Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Trackpad let you control how you tap two fingers on the trackpad simultaneously to drag.
    7. Is there any website where i can get a free tutorial?
    Select the Happy face on the translucent toolbar. You now will have a menu called Finder at the top of the screen. Use the Help menu to search topics.
    Or post to the relevant OS page, and someone will gladly help you on this board.

  • New user of Macbook Pro - Problems sending out emails

    Hi, I have just recently bought a macbook pro. I have created my email account. However, when I try to send an email, the message is just stuck in the outbox. What do I do to overcome this problem please?

    Hi Ernie,
    I found the below information when going to "what are bt yahoo settings". Is this information useful at all?
    What are the BT Yahoo! Mail settings?
    To use an email program to send and receive BT Yahoo! Mail messages, you must designate a new incoming (POP) mail server and a new outgoing (SMTP) mail server. Outlook Express users can do this automatically by going to My account and clicking on 'Configure my email client settings'.
    If your program won't let you add new POP or SMTP servers, you'll need to change your current server settings.
    Here are the basic server settings for BT Yahoo! Mail:
    Incoming Mail (POP3) Server:
    mail.btinternet.com
    Port (usually specified in 'Advanced settings')
    110
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server:
    mail.btinternet.com
    Port (usually specified in 'Advanced Settings')
    25
    Account Name/Login Name:
    Your email address (including the "@btinternet.com" or "@btopenworld.com" part)
    Password:
    Your BT Yahoo! password
    Please note: if your client does not support SMTP authentication, you will not be able to use it to send your BT Yahoo! Mail messages.

    Hi Kurt,
    The Mac IIci is not even powering on at all. Tried again with wih a tested power cable and no luck. 
    I think it's best that take  this issue to the Older Hardware Community. Not only did I see a fair number of replacement parts for the IIci avaiable online, but there also vintage external floppy drives as well. I'm not giving up.
    Thank you for your time and interest in helping.

  • I'm new to the macbook pro

    I'm new to the macbook pro and my stupidity let me attempt to personalize it before reading the user manual....I tried dragging an icon from the dock to the desktop(the same way you create a desktop shortcut with windows), it disappeared & now I can't find it again. Is there any way to retrieve it and how would I go about doing it?

    Just go to your Applications folder, find the app you want in the Dock and drag it there. It creates an alias to the app.

  • TS1501 transferring a small batch of photos from the new ipad to macbook pro (this way you can upload one album at a time, file them into a new album on macbook pro)  Pls. advise.

    How can I transfer a small batch of photos from the new ipad to macbook pro?  In theory, I should be able to keep my albums together this way (once uploaded to macbook pro, i can easily file them into a new album on macbook pro.)  Not working for me!  Macbook pro does include iphoto.  I had no problem uploading ALL photos (3 or 4,000.)  Help!  Goal is to keep albums together.

    Hi all,
    Goal:  Backing up photos!
    Hope:  Transfer ALBUMS from ipad to external drive (via macbook pro)
    Is this possible?  Or will I have to create a file name for each of my thousands of photos?
    UGH!
    HELP!

  • I have read that new purchases of macbook pro will get free upgrade to LION OS. When and how do I go about this?

    I have read that new purchases of macbook pro will get free upgrade to LION OS. When and how do I go about this?

    http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2011/06/06lion.html
    The Mac OS X Lion Up-To-Date upgrade is available at no additional charge via the Mac App Store to all customers who purchased a qualifying new Mac system from Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller on or after June 6, 2011. Users must request their Up-To-Date upgrade within 30 days of purchase of their Mac computer. Customers who purchase a qualifying Mac between June 6, 2011 and the date when Lion is available in the Mac App Store will have 30 days from Lion’s official release date to make a request.
    Currently that's the only information available. I suspect more will be posted as we get closer to launch.

    I just wanted to follow this up by saying that you were entirely correct in your diagnosis of the situation.  My computer did have the faulty part you linked to.  I brought my laptop in and specifically told them to run that test, had it fail and then argued with the person at the genius bar and the manager.  Eventually they offered to have it sent out and have everything replaced for free of charge.  They did so mainly because I had complained about graphical issues almost every other time I had come in with problems and no one ran the test.  They should have caught this problem during my warranty, but they didn't, even though I mentioned the problem.
    Anyhow, after having the part replaced, I haven't had my computer crash a single time since, or had many of the issues mentioned above.  I've never had this experience before.  Even brand new, I got occasional crashes.  Hopefully this new trend continues.
    I do find that web browsing is still incredibly slow.  Web browsers just chug along at a slow pace, even though I have great internet speed.  Maybe I'll try just deleting my web browsers and reinstalling them...
    Anyhow, thank you for your help and knowledge Clinton.

  • Error while creating new user in Oracle 11i EBS

    I am getting following error while creating new user. How solve this issue?
    “Unable to load java class % specified profile option SIGNON_PASSWORD_CUSTOM. Please verify that the class exists and that it implements the java interface oracle.apps.fnd.security.PasswordValidation”.

    Following is the text from Note for Custom Password Validation logic:
    Customers who wish to use their own password validation logic may do
      so by writing their own Java classes that implement the
      oracle.apps.fnd.security.PasswordValidation Java interface.  The
      interface requires 3 methods to be implemented:
      1) public boolean validate(String user, String password)
        - This method takes a username and password, and then returns true
      or false, indicating whether the user's password is valid or invalid,
      respectively.
      2) public String getErrorStackMessageName()
        - This method returns the name of the message to display when the
      user's password is deemed invalid (i.e., the validate() method returns
      false).
      3) public String getErrorStackApplicationName()
        - This method returns the application shortname for the
      aforementioned error message.
      After writing the Java class to perform customized password
      validation, the customer must then set the value of the profile option
      SIGNON_PASSWORD_CUSTOM to be the full name of the class.  If, for
      example, the name of the Java class is
      oracle.apps.fnd.security.AppsPasswordValidation, then the value of the
      SIGNON_PASSWORD_CUSTOM profile option must be
      oracle.apps.fnd.security.AppsPasswordValidation.  Note that AOL/J
      will attempt to load this class dynamically.  Hence it is necessary to
      make the class accessible by AOL/J.  This means that in Forms, the
      class must first be loaded into the database using the loadjava
      command.

  • Old user account not accessible - Had to create new user account

    Why was I forced to create a new user account in order to access Apple discussions? The last time I had posted to Apple discussions was 11/06. From the emails notifying me of replies to my post, I can still go to the link where my question and the replies are. Last week I wanted to post another question. Instead I encountered a circular problem. Every time I tried to log in to discussions with my Apple ID and password (the same as my .Mac name and password, which were working fine for accessing .Mac), I was told that there was an error in my password. When I tried again, I was repeatedly re-directed to a "create new user account" web page that listed my .Mac email address as my Apple ID, as it should have. I tried to re-create my old user account with my own [real] name (as before) and was told that name was in use! Of course, it was me! (I had always used by real first name and surname as my name on Apple discussions.) So finally, very frustrated, I created a new name, a nickname, for discussions, and it worked. Now, all my previous posts are gone. It's as if I didn't exist in the Apple world until today, 9/16/07, but I originally had established my user account in 2004. I tried asking about this in a phone call to Apple support, but I was re-directed to the .Mac web site. Then I posted a question at .Mac feedback to no avail. I had a feeling that as soon as I "obeyed" and created a new user account that wouldn't be recognized as myself, my past posts would be sent into oblivion. I don't like losing all my previous posts that were attached to my user account. I have found this problem very frustrating and would really like an explanation.

    Hi decemberbaby,
    Try this procedure.
    Delete all the Apple Cookies in your browser, and empty the Cache.
    Go here Discussions Sign In, and try logging in with your original Apple ID again.
    If that still doesn't work, delete the Cookies again, and go to My Info, and log in with the original Apple ID.
    If you get the error message "Your Apple ID or password was entered incorrectly.", click on "Did you forget your password? Click here for assistance".
    On the page that opens, you can also click on "Forget your Apple ID
