Delete old users/jobs in sm37

We have some old jobs created in SM37 (R/3 4.7)
Some of the people who created the jobs has now left the company.
How do I assign the jobs to a another user so we get rid of old names in jobs "created by" column in sm37.

Brian,
Not all jobs created by people who have left will be necessary to run in the system.
Create a standard user, exclusively for running background jobs, login with the user, go to sm37, list the jobs created by people who have left, copy them and delete the earlier scheduled instance of the job. Schedule the job, created under the new id as per your requirements.
Make sure you delete the earlier jobs with status as scheduled / released / ready / active, or else they will trigger another instance of the job under the old user-id's

How do I create a new user, move my old files etc over, and delete old user

This is why I think I need to.
My computer got hit by lightening, and I may have created a new user account through netinfo rather than system preferences /accounts/+user. Mail used to open twice, but no longer. Now, Safari askes me for my keychain password twice, Spotlight can't find a folder on the computer when the search is restricted to folder and computer, though the folder is there and easyfind finds it, and when System Preferences/Spotlight/Privacy has the hard drive icon added, then deleted, Spotlight still does not find anything. (Yes, everything is backed up, on CD, DVD, and online.) Microsoft Tec Support says
"Here is a summary of the key points of the case for your records.
When you contacted us on August 8, you had requested assistance with Microsoft Office 2004, as your installation of the updates was unable to find the correct version of the software to update. After creating a New MAC User, we identified the issue to be with a corrupt MAC User account, and not a Microsoft issue. "
I believe Microsoft. So, creating a new user was easy.
But copying files uses up too much hard drive (movies, music), and may miss keychains, preferences, mail, address book, and documents. Since Spotlight no longer works, who knows what is happening. (Yes, I've repaired persmissions, and disk repair. No change). I'm using up my hard drive trying to move files to the new user. If I share files, or put them into a public folder, then delete the old user, will I still have the old user's files in the new user's account? It is not clear to me what I should be trying to do in order to create a new user, move my old files etc over, and delete old user. Thanks.
My responses will be slow, because I have to drive to town to use the internet. I've ordered a new airport which may take care of that problem. SO be patient.

Hey -
I need to do the EXACT same thing, but have no idea how. Has anyone out there done this?
My situation is a tad different..this is a new Mac (and I'm a brand new Mac user). Tons of querks occur under my original account (videos won't run, Safari won't support certain plug-ins). I spent 6 hours on the phone w/ 4 different Apple Reps and nobody could fix it. A rep finally looked at my MacBook Pro in person today. He created a new account just to see if that would work and under that new account, everything works perfectly fine (no querks, can view video). He tried switching a million settings in my original account to no avail.
He said to create a new account (as he did) and move my files over to the new account and then go back to the original and delete it. How do you do this?! I can't figure it out! I've got a new account created, but of course it just has the default folders in it w/ the little red icons next to them! Thanks in advance!

In I tunes store how do I delete old user ID?

In ITunes store- how do I delete old user ID?

Edit :
You can log out of an account by tapping on its id in Settings > iTunes & App Store (and for iCloud via Settings > iCloud > Delete Account, Sign Out if on iOS 8). Any content that was downloaded by the account will remain tied to it, so only that account can potentially redownload its purchases and/or download updates to its apps

We are using SharePoint 2010 server with service pack 1 want to remove/delete old user profiles & site from server

Hi Team,
We are using SharePoint 2010 server with service pack 1, we want to remove/delete old user profiles, access & site from server
is there any script or feature available using that we can only remove dactivated/deleted/old user profiles, access & site.
Thanks
NPratik

Take a look at Metalogix ControlPoint, which will compare user accounts on SharePoint to Active Directory and remove accounts that no longer exist in AD (or are disabled).

Can't delete old user accounts from iBook (G3 - Darwin 6.8)

Hello,
I'm having a pain of a time trying to remove the old user accounts on this iBook I was given. The accounts page in the system settings is unlocked, I click on an accountm, the click on Delete User, it works for a while, and then when it is finished 'deleting' the user account is still there, nothing has been deleted. I've try a dozen times now. I'm stumped. Can't find anything on the internet that will help.
Thanks,
David.

So far, I've not had this kind of issue; but did find a few directions to check to see how to go about removing user accounts... or renaming them, etc. One of the recent discussions I've read through (three pages) had some ideas that could work.
Outside of booting the OS X computer into a super-user account where you can delete Admin users, etc and probably if not familiar with unix, do some incredible damages too; I'd try other exercises first as I am timid. What version of OS X is running in your vintage computer?
In the process of 'Change Name on Home Folder' some revealing ideas came across; some may transfer...
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3366855?tstart=0
And some ideas that could be used to another end, may be found here...

How to delete user accounts...
https://discussions.apple.com/message/3836878#3836878
However, there are no warrantees expressed or implied. Always a fine idea to read and sort information since some of the ideas available only allow you do perform the practice once correctly. Or wish you had.
Good luck & happy computing!

Delete old users

I'm giving my old MacBook to my little brother to use for school.
I've created a new user and given it admin status. I am trying to delete my old user account so that he can start fresh with a "new" computer and not have any of my pics, music, files etc on it.
I can't find my old disks to completely rewrite the system but I'm not worried about security....I just want to get all of my old files off so that they are not in his way.
The problem is: when I log out of my username and re-login as his new user name and click on System Preferences to delete my old user file nothing happens.
When I click on System Preferences in the new username under the apple icon nothing happens at all.
How can I delete my old user if I can't open system preferences in his new user account.
Plus, I'm sure that he is going to need/want to open system preferences as he uses his "new to him" computer.
thanks for any help or suggestions!!

Your best bet is to call AppleCare. They can send a replacement set of the disks that came with it for a nominal fee. Your brother may well need them, sooner or later, to repair the internal HD, restore from a Time Machine backup, etc.
Then erase the HD and install the OS, and stop at the startup window, so he can set it up however he wants.

That's only in the new account? It works fine in the other account(s)? If so, something is clearly wrong with the account. If you haven't done much with it, delete and re-create it. (Be sure to delete the home folder when prompted, too.)

Unable to find any record with GUID/Deleting old users from the Proxy DB

It seems that I have old users in my proxy db that need removing as per the below post.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8062329&#8062329
The problem, I have is that after I have ran the python script as per this link:

I get the following response:

Could this have something to do with the fact that I have my iCal Server bound to my ODM?

Additionally, can you confirm that all server components are running the latest updates, as are the clients / phones involved in the conference?
I've seen this exact behavior when the invite / adding of additional participants was being performed ad-hoc on a CX3000. It transpired that a firmware upgrade on that device rectified the problem.
Kind regards

Created new user acct. deleted old user acct. can't access old TM backups

After changing the name on my home folder and deleting and creating a user account I can't access the old backups when I enter time machine.
After creating the new user acct TM did a full complete backup that I can access
Is this normal behavior or a problem?
All of the above was done working with AppleCare
Thanks for helping a Mac newbie.
Mark

Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Users
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V), and press return. A folder will open with the home folders of all users as subfolders. Enter Time Machine. You should now be able to see your old home folder in the snapshots that were taken before you renamed it.

Gray screen after deleting old user accounts - with a twist...

I have two MacBook Pros w/retina displays. Purchased about 6 months apart, they are both running 10.8.4. The newer unit was recently bought from my employer (work unit) and connected to my wi-fi. I set up file sharing and deleted the work-related users accounts on both. When I rebooted, both went to gray screen, apple icon, and wheel spinning. Then icon only with no wheel.
Command-P-R to repair permissions and repair tasked 3-4 times - Same result after reboot.
Reinstalled OSX on work unit - SUCCESS and all my changes made before the gray screen were intact.
Reinstalled OSX on home unit - The install ran its course but after reboot, gray screen. Command P-R revealed that repair was available but repair permissions button is not grayed out. Repaired 2-3 times. Same result. Restalled OSX 3-4 times. Same result.
The files are intact...at least the space is showing utilized. My last option is to slave home unit to work unit and transfer all files then reinitiallize.
Help me Obi-Wan. You're my only hope.
Thx in advance! DC

Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
Step 1
The first step in dealing with a boot failure is to secure your data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since your last backup, you can skip this step.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
a. Boot into the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
Step 2
Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to boot, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can boot now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
If you've booted from an external storage device, make sure that your internal boot volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
Step 3
Boot in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
When you boot in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, your boot volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 5.
If you can boot and log in now, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
If the boot process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
Step 4
Sometimes a boot failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
Step 5
Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select your startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then reboot as usual.
Step 6
Reinstall the OS. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
Step 7
Repeat step 6, but this time erase the boot volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer your data from a Time Machine or other backup.
Step 8
This step applies only to older Macs (not current models) that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery. The battery is distinct from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a gray screen at boot. Typically the boot failure will be preceded by loss of the startup disk and system clock settings. See the user manual for replacement instructions.
Step 9
If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.

Create New User--delete old user-- Lose applications? (giving iMac away)

I want to give my iMac to a friend. I want to just create a new user for him, then delete me to erase my info and files.. If I do that will my bootcamp and Windows, and iLife, and applications all remain for him? I hope so!
I can erase my mobile me, mail, and itunes account. Basically like a pseudo "wipe clean". Any suggestions?
I would rather not re-install. It would be nice for him to have it up and running already.
Thanks

After you delete your personal files, you can use Disk Utility to 'Erase Free Space'. When you trash files in OS X and empty the trash, the files are no longer accessible (and they become free space that may be reused) but they are still on your hard drive and could be recovered by someone with the necessary software. By doing +Erase Free Space,+ OS X will write 0's over all free space, eliminating the ability to recover the deleted files. Read the Help topics in Disk Utility for more info.
For the extra paranoid, you can specify doing this 7x or even 35x when you erase free space in Disk Utility.
There is no need to completely wipe out the drive & reinstall. Even if you did a complete reinstall, if you don't do a secure erase first those data files may actually still be recoverable because the free space they occupied previously likely won't get reused during the installation.

How do I delete all files from an old user account on my MacBook Pro?

I've already deleted the user and clicked "Delete Immediately" to remove the user account and all the user's files, but a lot of their files and applications still show up in my Finder (and take up tons of storage space). Is there a way to permanently delete all of the old stuff?

The applications are stored in a global folder to be used by everyone, so deleting a user doesn't delete the programs installed.
If you don't want to do it manually, you could backup what files you do want to keep off the machine and erase OS X and everything in it's entirety and then reinstall it with the programs you want then files last.

How long does it take to delete an old user/administrator from my MacBook Pro? Hours/Days?

I just bought a new 2011 MacBook Pro and I want to give my late 2006 MacBook Pro to my niece for college. It's in near-perfect condition.
I'm trying to delete all of my user info and files. I went ahead and created an account for her as an "administrator". Then, I logged off from my account, logged in as her and then tried to delete my old account under System Settings / Accounts.
I got as far as to remove the user account and to delete the home folder for my old user account. Now it says "Deleting account..." under my user name. It's been this way for about 6 hours.
I have no way of knowing how long it takes, but does anyone know if it takes hours? A full day? With no status bar to indicate the deletion process, I have no way of knowing if my old computer is "stuck" or if it's actually working. I have yet to try and stop the process for fear of screwing something up. But if anyone has any idea how long this might take, I'd appreciate it so I can move on and do other things while this computer just "does its thing".
Thanks!
-CSI

Cool. Thanks for the response back.
The late 2006 is running on OS X Lion (10.7).
As for the "Activity Monitor", where would I find that? I tried to search for it...but nothing popped up.
I did, however, "get info" on the hard drive icon and noticed that the available disc space has gotten bigger, which would indicate to me that there have been some program and file deletions during the course of the day. In fact, when I started the process, there was only about 50Gb of disc space available. But, it seems like that number has doubled, which indicates to me the disc space is slowly freeing up.
Again, it would be nice to some how know how long it would take. Maybe this "activity monitor" is something I can find and see.
