Export User Account

Is there a way that I can export and save a user account to a backup disc, or is it just a matter of copying files?

Drag & drop the user account's folder to the ext HD or a mounted optical disc.

Export User Accounts/AAA Local Database from 4404 WLC

Hi,
Guest User Accounts have been created in the local database of the WLC 4404. Because we are going to use Cisco ISE for Guest user authentication, I would like to know if there is a way to export these accounts and import them into Cisco ISE.
Thanks in advance.

How can I export user account list in Oracle EM 10g

Hi all, I don't know whether i post here is correct.
I started working with Oracle 2 weeks ago.
I have 4 server; PORTAL, SSO, OID and Database
I had a request that he need all users in portal in text file (.txt, .doc, v.v...). Anyone could you please show me how I can export this list.
I just feel like an year old :(
Thanks for your help,

If you use third party tools like Toad, you can easily save the list to file in CSV, XLS, HTML etc format.
If in SQLPlus, Spool the result to a txt file using spool filename. Run the query. Then spool off. Pickup the filename and clean it up where necessary

Can only export songs/ringtones to itunes on one user account

I can't for the life of me figure out why it works fine on one user account, and on the other account (there both admin accts), it appears to be exporting to itunes but, nothing ever shows up in itunes or in the itunes music folder. Any ideas on this? I have seen a few other posts with similar problems but have not been able to find a solution. Thanks in advance.

How to make bookmarks appear in all user accounts w/out importing and exporting everytime.

Hello, all. I'm imaging a couple of laptops to be sent out. I want the bookmarks on the admin user account to be applied to the network domain user accounts or roaming profile is you will. Is there a way to this without have to import/export?

I am trying to do the same thing. I also cant get it to work. I am
thinking it may have something to do with the concept of ScopedResponse, but
I am not sure. There is very little documentation and more importantly
examples of how to make sense of the getOuterResponse() method. Dev2Dev and
Google are of no help.
Anyone care to explain this to us?

Unable to open user accounts

Hello All,
I have a strange problem with few Windows server 2008 x64 SP2 machines, where in we are unable to open 'user accounts' from control panel. On opening 'user accounts', a windows explorer window pops up and disappear in a fraction of second.
Tried opening with below command lines and behavior is same as above.
nusrmgr.cpl
control nusrmgr.cpl
RunDll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL nusrmgr.cpl
Could you please assist me in fixing this issue.
Note - Local users and groups MMC opend fine.

Hi,
Before going further, would you please let me confirm some questions? If start computer in
Safe Mode, can you launch User Account in the safe mode? Meanwhile, please make sure if there are some Group Policy settings that block the user account.
After confirmation, please logon as administrator (if you didn’t use the admin account) and then check if this issue still exists. Meanwhile, please
run
sfc /scannow
command to scan missing or corrupted system files and repair them.
In addition, please compare the "System" registry key in the problematic machine with another machine working properly.
The path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System.
If there are some missing, please export keys from a machine that work properly and import it into the malfunctioning machine.
Please note: before operations, please backup those registry to avoid unexpected issues.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Justin Gu

Migrating user account on same computer?

I thought I'd be able to find the answer to this just by searching the forum, but everything related to what I wish to do seems to be talked about in terms of one computer to another. However I wish to migrate from one account on my computer to a fresh one on the same computer, which seems like it would be simple, but I've been unable to figure it out on my own.
The background is this: my G5 being four years old, my main user account that I have been using all this time has become a bit "sluggish." I created a new account and there is a marked difference between their responsiveness, both system-wide and on-line, so instead of troubleshooting what is bogging down the old account I thought I would just migrate over to the new one. Also, I was running the old account as admin, which I understand is not advisable, so I figured I would keep the old account for admin purposes while performing my day-to-day activities in the new account.
I was surprised to find that there is no way for me to easily access all my files on my old account from my new account (read and write) simply by changing a global permission. This would have been the "ideal" way for me to make this adjustment, as it really wouldn't matter which of these two accounts I logged in from, everything would be the same. Am I missing something here?
Barring a solution to that, I don't necessarily mind "starting fresh" and basically treating the accounts as separate computers. Address Book and iCal should be easy enough to export from the old account and import into the new account. Mail on my old account has grown huge (4GB) so I was planning to archive anyway with 3rd party software and start from scratch. The files I'm currently working on I will copy over, and then I guess anything prior that I need to refer to in the future I will just have to log in to the old account and copy over piecemeal. (Is there another way, other than simply copying 100% of my files from the get-go?)
If I'm understanding all of the above correctly, my only concerns are:
1) Applications. When I launch 3rd party apps that require registration from the new account, some seem to be having some issues. Would copying the "Application Support" folder from my old account solve this, or will I only be able to use these apps from one account on my computer at a time?
2) iTunes, specifically as regards my iPhone. Will I need to log into my old account each time I wish to sync with my iPhone? Is there any way that by instead syncing with the new account that I can mess things up and cause my phone or my apps to be de-authorized?
Many thanks in advance for any guidance you can give here. I hope I am not going about all this backwards and should rather just be trying to "clean up" the old account rather than make a new one to "mimic" it?
Thank you,
Josh

I recommend making a full backup of your system before trying this.
read the above post of mine for finding out the short user name of your second account and group name of your first account.
Macintosh-HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Net Info Manager
You can use the net info manager to add a user to the group. although I think the single command is easier to use. You can copy the first portion into terminal and type in the variable and information.
Here is the Net Info Manager way:
in the middle column click on groups. this will bring out the list of groups. Scroll down to your group from your first userid and click on at.
Click on the lot on the lower left-hand corner of the screen. Fill in your administrator password.
Click on the down triangle for the list of groups.
Click on edit: add
fill in your group name.
Mac OS X uses Unix permissions.
You will need to use BatChmod to change the permissions. Mac OS X doesn't let you change the permission to let others look in directories -- this is called the execution permission. The picture directory doesn't let others look at its files. You need to change this. You need to set the read-only and the execution permissions. And change it on group and other/everyone.
!http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3265/3180927160_fabd018171.jpg?v=0!
Sometimes things are not updated as you would expect. I noticed that the Red minus bar on a folder doesn't go way when I changed the permissions. I had to log off the user. You may want to be boot after changing the execution permission. It shouldn't be necessary.
"BatChmod is a Cocoa utility for manipulating file and folder privileges in Mac OS X. It allows the manipulation of ownership as well as the privileges associated to the Owner, Group or others."

You can use the get info command to find out file permissions and make the changes.
Click on the file of interest. Press command i (⌘-i)
Each file has an owning user and a group of users that are allowed to access the file. Also, there is a another access for all users. The owning user is the UID field. The group of users is the GID.
You could add yourself to your first Group. This would allow you to look at any file your wife owns.
The NetInfo Manager application allows you to make this change.
Macintosh-HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> NetInfo Manager
In the middle column is the function. Pick users in the middle column then select the user of interest in the right column. Find out what group you and your wife are in.
Now go back to the middle column and pick the Group. Now pick your wife's group. Now add your group to your wife's group. To add an item to a group, you need to look up and find the pulldown called directory > insert value.

Data recovery after system restore and corrupt user account.

A few months ago I was in the middle of a school assignment and my HP laptop started acting strange. I would try to move an image and a copy of it would remain in its place. I couldn't delete the picture either, but I could "cut" the image. Well,
I ended up restarting the computer and when I logged on it logged me into a temporary account because my account failed to log on. Not knowing exactly what was going on or what to do we ended up doing a system restore like a dummy and restarted the computer.
Well, when I logged back in everything was gone, all my school stuff was gone. What do I do can I get these back without having to pay a lot of money to do so? I am a single mother of two and there is no way I can afford anything.

I'm assuming that, since this post is 2 years old, rachbutterfly81 has already moved on with her life. But, since this is the second time I've run into this problem, and this is the first time I've found a solution that worked, I thought I would add my two
cents. Of course I do agree that the original response was a little heavy for a mother of two, but it did work for me (with some slight variation that I will get to).
I definitely disagree with Mr. Malotte's statement that all her files were deleted by the system restore. She was obviously logged in under a temporary account, and so all her original files were fine and stored under the same location they always were.
There was no need for her to purchase additional software to "recover" her files when they were all there under her original account name. All she would have had to do to find her files (assuming she was running Windows Vista or 7) was to open her "C:" drive
and navigate to the "C:\Users\" directory and look for the folder with her account name.
Anyway, the first solution worked for me, BUT there is absolutely no reason to delete the original account folder as Magon suggests in step 3!
Simply rename it. Once you finish step 5 and delete the original registry key (I recommend backing it up by right clicking on the key and selecting export), there is no reason to reboot your machine. There are some additional steps to make
life a little easier though. I've added them to a modified version of the original:
1. If you know you have another administrative account you can use, go ahead and restart your PC to release the locks on your profile. If you don't have another account to use, you can create one by going to "Add or remove user accounts" in the control panel.
Select "Create a new account," name it whatever you want, check the Administrator box, and click "Create Account" (you may want to consider adding a password to this account as well). Now you can restart.
2. Log on with another administrative account
3. Rename your original profile to something different. For the sake of simplicity, we'll pretend it was called "myaccount." So, you would rename "C:\Users\myaccount" to "C:\Users\myaccount.original." It really doesn't matter what you name it, so long as it
is different than it was and you can still find it again.
4. Delete C:\Users\TEMP
5. Delete the registry key matching your SID from
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList". Check the value "ProfileImagePath" to make sure you pick your own profile.
6. Log off and then log into your original account. Everything will still look messed up, like before, but it will not warn you that you are logged in under a temporary account.
7.While logged in, navigate to your user directory (not C:\Users\myaccount.original, but the current one you are logged in under, C:\Users\myaccount) and copy any files you see that say "ntuser" in them into your original profile directory (C:\Users\myaccount.original).
Most likely, you won't be able to see any, so you will need show hidden files. Hit
Alt on your keyboard, and you should see the menu bar appear. Select "Tools" and then "Folder Options". Select the "View" tab, and under "Hidden files and folders" check the option to "Show hidden files, folders, and drives." While you are
at it, uncheck the box next to "Hide protected operating system files."
8.Once you've copied the files over, go ahead and log out. You will need to log into your other administrative account once more.
9.Rename the new account (or delete it if you want), and rename your original account back to what it was (so "C\Users\myaccount.original" will be renamed to "C:\Users\myaccount").
10. Log out and now log in using your original account. Some things may not work as they originally did (for instance, I had to log into dropbox again and go through the setup process), but most things will. Most importantly, all your files should still
be there.

Safari problem & how do I do admin user account fix

Using Safari 1.3.2, QT 6.5.2, OSX.3.9 on Mac G4. I have not chosen to upgrade to QT 7 or Tiger because of other apps on this machine.
Safari crashes when I try to empty cache. Problem started after upgrade to above and installing flip4mac. - not sure which caused the problem.
I've already thrown out the suggested things from Safari prefs, plist, cache files from prefs, etc. I also trashed all of the fllip4mac pieces. Didn't fix the problem.
The only solution has been to log in as a different user. So, I guess I have to fix or delete and re-do the problem user account, which is my main admin. user account. I see that the dialogue box says I can save the user folder items into a "deleted user" folder.
Before taking this step, I want to know what happens then? Do I just drag the items back into the new admin. account? I would like some info before I take this step - don't want any regrets. If I can and do drag stuff back, any chance it would bring the problem with it? Will I get all my setting back? How about a step x step on setting up as new admin.?

2012 R2 RBA: Remove / Delete buttons greyed out Administrative users account (sec role/scope) clean up

I am seeing something odd with one of my RBA settings. Keep in mind I am seeing this as a 'Full Administrator'.
I created a new test Security scope, Security Role, created a test Active Directory group and then entered that AD group as a new account name under Security>Administrative users. I added the new Security Role under the Security Roles tab of the
Account name (Administrative users) properties and also added the security scope that I created under the Security Scopes tab. I was able to see all the settings I had created/exported in the RBA viewer and everything with the role worked as desired.
I am now looking to clean that up but I don't seem to be able to. I am starting under Administrative Users>Account name and trying to unlink the Security Roles and Security Scopes that listed in those tabs. However, remove and deletes on this
stuff are all greyed out. If I add another role to the Security Role tab I can then remove that, but I cannot remove this 1 particular one. The result is that I cannot remove the custom Security Scope, Security Role and ultimately the Administrative
user.
Does anyone have any idea why I can't remove the security roles and scopes from the Account Name?

I'm able to "delete" one admin user or group (account name) from Administrative users node (\Administration\Overview\Security\Accounts). I tried with custom security role/scope etc....even the same user was part of \Administration\Overview\Security\Accounts.
It seems something wrong with your FULL admin account ? Do you've any other FULL Admin account? If so, can you try with that account?

ISight not working from one user account on MacBook

Hi everyone,
It'd be great to get some help with fixing an iSight camera. I've followed the instructions here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
and have narrowed it down to a particular user account (it has admin permissions). Other user accounts can access the iSight fine. However, every application I try under that one user account can't access the iSight.
Unfortunatly it's my wife's account. She quite likes to skype her family in the earthquake prone area of New Zealand called Christchurch.
Any ideas of things I could try, permissions I could reset, etc would be great.
I've tried:
* resetting the PRAM
* resetting the SMC
* rebooting
* fixing disk permissions (from multiple accounts)
I've got a reasonably techy background, so even telling me the device node that the iSight is accessable on would be useful - that way I can manually check the permissions on that.
Thanks!
Tim

Hi Tim,
That was partly my fault (well actually it was entirely my fault)
I missed this bit:-
However, every application I try under that one user account can't access the iSight.
Now it is really Odd that this one user cannot access the camera at all in any App where as other users on the Mac can.
I would start with the FONT BOOK.
Check that all Fonts are active, particularly the System Fonts.
Certain Apple Apps will not work properly if Helvetica or Lucida Grande are turned Off or Missing.
Basically we are looking for something that she has changed (or has become corrupt) that is not directly linked to the camera but is needed (there is no direct way to turn On or Off the camera access). (Fonts are first choice)
Next check the Address Book.
Is the My Card (Head and Shoulders icon) actually listing her details.
Have a look at this
This Apple Article refers to a .plist that is a System wide one.
However as a .plist it may be the thing that is blocking access to one user.
I don't have it on my G4/1GHz Dual processor running 10.5.8 but neither do I have iMovie 7 (from iLife '08)
Some people have reported that removing this gets the camera back for iChat.
Make the Address Book Export of copy of itself (File Menu > Export > Archive)
After that I would try moving (NOT Deleting) the whole contents of her Home Folder/Library/Preferences.
Then Restart the computer then try specific apps.
If Skype then works you will know it is one of the .plists that you moved.
Then comes the monotonous bit of moving back some .plists at a time until you can narrow down the one that is at fault.
Have you tried a Safe Boot ? (it will need another restart after it has done that)

Moving All The Important Stuff to a New User Account. What to take?

It's been quite an eventful week and, because I can't turn %%$$! FileVault off on my original user account, I've just decided to move over to my back up account. "Brian" now has Admin abilities but I was wondering about the process of getting Brian to look/feel just like my original, now f'ed up account. Is it just about putting the Preferences file folder onto an ext. HD and putting it into the new account's Library? (I've managed to screw things up REAL BAD messing about with my Preferences Folder. I really don't want to go through that again!)
Anyway, anything else beside the above folder? I've got all my music and photos/movies already on the Ext. HD. I'm so mad at the Brianhardy account, I really look forward to deleting it. (No, that doesn't make any sense...)
Finally, how do I pick a better picture for brian for the users window? Nothing against dogs but.......
Thanks.
Brian

Hi Brian
I went through what you are currently describing for the same reason as yours: disabling FileVault. Let me give you a few suggestions.
First of all, what I did is I actually went through all the files in the Preferences folder, to choose the ones I really wanted to move to the new account. There were so many obsolete preference files in there remaining from uninstalled apps that it was worth seriously cleaning up this folder.
Second, the Preferences folder is probably not the only folder in your Library you want to migrate. I'll give you a list of the stuff I migrated, but some of if might not apply to you.
My address book. It was corrupted, so I ended up exporting all the contacts, group by group, and importing them into the fresh, new address book on the new account. But you might not have to go through this trouble.
My calendars. I am a .Mac subscriber, so I synced over .Mac between the two accounts. (Be careful, it is a bit more tricky than it sounds). Same for all the stuff that can be synced (see the .Mac preference pane): Safari bookmarks, email accounts and rules, keychain... For some reason the keychain sync did not work, so I had to do the same export-import procedure as for my address book, except I had to give my password for every item in the keychain... :S I can type my password pretty fast, now :P
/Library/Application Support/iWeb if you use iWeb to create websites, which I don't recommend, after fighting with it for quite a while (but I haven't tried iLife'08 yet). More generally, you should have a look into this Application Support folder to see if anything in there is worth migrating.
/Library/Mail
/Library/Sounds because I had put lots of custom sounds in there that I can use for iCal alarms
/Library/Widgets
By the way, after migrating to this new user, I decided NOT to make it an admin, and to create a second new user with admin rights. I read this makes your mac more secure. Whenever you do something that requires admin rights, you enter the username and password of this admin user.
I also kept the old user for a while, just in case I realize later that there is something I forgot to migrate (which happened a couple of times). I just deleted it a few days ago.
Changing a user's picture can be done in the Accounts preference pane in the System preferences.
Good luck

ThinkVantage Access Connections and Limited User Account (LUA) on XP SP3

Is it really so that one has to be logged on with at least Power User privileges to get the Access Connections utility working properly with 3G/HSDPA? When logging on as a Limited User, the computer can find all the cell phone operators nearby but does not let to do a connect. But when logged on as a Power User, all problems go away.
I would not like to bump up my user privileges from Limited User to Power User, since all else seems to work fine with a Limited User Account. Any ideas about what is going wrong -- or did I just hit into a wall here?
The environment in question is Thinkpad X200 and XP SP3. Access Connections and the HSDPA driver are the latest ones I could find from the Lenovo driver download site (Access Connections v. 5.21, Ericsson HSDPA driver v. 1.0.1046.221).
Would there be any other way to use 3G connections than to use the Access Connections utility (without changing to another o/s)?

Hi Sami,
I just got stuck on the same problem as you and following is what I found in details fro ThinkVantage Access Connections version 5.30. Hope this helps.

<Limited User>
A Limited user can create and apply only modem profiles. However, if
Administrator sets "Allow Windows users without administrator
privileges to create and apply location profiles" option in the
Global settings then the user can create and apply any kinds of
profiles in the system.
Also, a limited user cannot:
1. Edit setting for the Automatic Ethernet and Wireless location
profiles switching.
2. Edit Global settings.
3. Edit profiles created by another user in the system.
4. Renew or release IP in the Diagnostics panel.
5. Export profiles.
The limitations on Power user also apply on Limited user.

What is involved in going from local user accounts to active directory accounts with CCM 9.1.2?

We are currently using local user accounts with CUCM 9.1.2 and are looking at integrating it into the active directory structure.
We do utilize the same structure for user ID's.
I am looking to find out what the changeover will entail and if anything else needs to be done prior to the integration.
We also have Unity syncing up with CUCM for users as well as Contact Center sync'ed up for our ACD system.
Thanks
Mike

Hey Mike,
The process is pretty straight forward. CUCM 9.X supports the coexistence of AD integrated users and local users so you don't have to worry about local accounts disappearing if they don't have an AD account. The biggest thing to watch out for is that if you decide to revert back for whatever reason then the accounts that were in AD will be marked for deletion (from the CUCM, not AD) and will be removed after approximately 24 hours.
I recommend the following if you'd like to move to AD.
Run a DRS backup of CUCM. This is not necessary for the integration but is good practice in my opinion. I'd also do a full export of your users using the BAT so you can reimport users to how they were before the integration should you decide to revert for any reason.
Determine if you want to put the user's extensions in the telephonenumber field or ipPhone field in AD. Once you make a decision, I recommend populating that information in AD so it is available when you do the integration.
Make sure your local CUCM user accounts usernames are exactly the same as your domain accounts. That way when you do the integration the local users become AD users and keep all of their phone associations, group memberships, etc. If you need to change the usernames then be sure to notify your users ahead of time so they can start logging into UCCX or UCM user pages, etc. using their new username.
Create an account in AD that has read-only rights to your directory. Set the password to never expire. You will use this account later for the integration.
In CUCM, go into Serviceability and make sure the "Cisco DirSync" service is activated on the Publisher server.
Also in CUCM, navigate to the administration page and do the following:
Go to System > LDAP > LDAP System and Check the box to enable Synchronizing. Confirm the LDAP server type and attribute for User ID is accurate. This is typically Microsoft Active Directory and sAMAccountName respectively.
Go to System > LDAP > LDAP Directory
Click Add New
Give it a name (whatever you want).
Put in the Distinguished Name of the AD integration account you created earlier. For example, if you created an account called ciscoldap in the Service Accounts OU in the abc.com domain then it would look something like this... CN=ciscoldap,OU=Service Accounts,DC=abc,DC=com
Enter the password for the account.
Enter the search base. This can be a specific OU where your users exist, a parent OU which contains other OUs which contain all of your users or the entire domain. If you do the entire domain then in the abc.com example you would specify DC=abc,DC=com.
Select the option to perform a sync with AD on periodic intervals. The lowest interval you can set is every 6 hours.
Select either the telephonenumber or ipPhone field to be used for the user's extensions. This will be whatever you decided and populated in AD in an earlier step.
Add your primary and any backup domain controllers and ports. If they are just domain controllers and you are not using SSL then specify port 389. If they are also global catalog servers then you can do port 3268.
Click Save and Click the "Perform Full Sync Now" button.
I recommend that you also use LDAP for authentication as well so you only have one username and password to remember which is all controlled by AD. To add this do the following:Go to System > LDAP > LDAP Authentication.
Click Add New
Check the box to use LDAP Authentication
Add the same Distinguished name, passwords and user seach base that you used for your integration account earlier under the synchronization section. Also add the same primary and secondary LDAP servers and ports you used earlier.
Click Save
You can go a step further and create a filter to only pull in the users within the search base you specified and apply that. For example, maybe only pull in users that have their ipPhone field populated. Let me know if you have any questions on that or any of the above.
I hope this helps!
