Guest account shows up

i came home to find a guest account in my users folder. i might be getting paranoid about this, but a few days i forgot my mac's wifi unlocked, sharing folders, screen and internet connection. is this because i've turned on back to my mac and find my mac, and if this is so, should there be a guest folder or just an account in the login window? i looked at some logs and i've found this

Only guest account shows up at start up on Macbook Air

Last night I was updating my Macbook Air, left it alone to do it's update, came back the next morning to turn it on and it was stuck at the apple logo.
After preforming a safe boot, it took me to the login page however only the guest account shows up.
I'm not sure if something went wrong during the update, it was at 70% battery life when i preformed the update so I didn't have it plugged into a power source like recommened, but i've never had a problem with it before.
I've tried enterng control+alt+command+enter which gives me the chance to put in a username and a password.
First I enter my name and passwor, but it was rejected.
So then I tried my apple ID and password, and it was rejected again.
I know I'm entering the right username/password, because it has been the same for my Air, Pro, and iMac.
Now I'm not sure if the account even exsists on my Macbook Air, but the guest account only allowed me to use safari.
I'm not able to access system prefences or anything.
I'm also having trouble with my iMac after updaiting to Mavericks, it work fine until the update and now it's saying my disk is corrupt, but that's a whole other story.
I'm just hoping to fix the problem at home because I really don't want to take two computers down to the Apple store.

If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode.

Disabled guest account won't stop showing up during start up.

My MacBook Pro started displaying a guest account option (next to my log in) when I start the computer. I disabled the guest account but it still shows it on the start up screen (and allows for anyone to use safari without having to log in -- if I click on the guest account it says that it will restart in a safe mode to allow access to safari). Is this normal ? Thanks

Have a read here OS X 10.7.2 with iCloud showing Guest user account at log-in
To get rid of it, uncheck "Find my Mac" in System Peferences -> iCloud

AirPlay Mirroring shows scrambled output in guest account

When using Mountain Lion's AirPlay Mirroring in the guest account, all I see on an Apple TV is some flickering scrambled image.
The same issue is observed by one other user on the Net.
The reponse by another user is as follows..
"To be more precise: after using AirPlay Mirroring in one account, one needs to log out that account before one can use Mirroring in another account on that same Mac. The same applies if you happen to use Mirroring in the guest account first, and then leave that account logged in and try to use Mirroring in some regular account."
IS THIS A BUG?

i get this flickering from both my machines:
Mini is wired into Linksys Router and Netgear switch
MBP wireless to same router
ATV2 is hard wired into router
both my OSX devices display flickering. IOS devices are all fine.
Any one any idea at all?
i dont have any other accounts on both machines except the admin user account i use for myself

Guest user account showing on login screen - how to get rid of it.

I disabled the guuest account and my iCloud account is not set to track my Mac what can I do. The guest account is asking for a user ID and password, how to do I reset this password.

I'll answer your second sentence, as I don't understand the end of the first.
You're probably being asked for an administrator username and password to take the action of disabling your guest account. Try entering that.

How do I transfer a file from a guest account on a MacBook Air?

I'm logged into the guest account of a borrowed MacBook Air which is running OS X Version 10.9.2 and I've been trying to transfer a 2.19GB video file to an admin account, a USB or external hard drive, or online.
1. Transferring the file to the admin account: Apparently if I log out of this guest account, the file will be deleted. So, I tried transferring it to a shared folder, but I can't find/access a shared folder... perhaps because I'm on a guest account? I tried using Terminal and codes I copy-pasted from Google, but they all require the password of the admin account, which the owner can't remember. We've been working together the whole afternoon to try to remember the password, but the owner says he'd be able to guess it if he had the "password hint". Unfortunately, we only know how to view the "password hint" by logging out of the guest account, which we obviously can't do, or else the file will be deleted.
Transferring to the admin account: FAILED
2. Transferring the file to a USB or external hard drive: I've tried both ports with 3 different USB's, and none of them were recognized by the Mac. I've also tried plugging in a WD external hard drive in both ports, but neither recognized the hard drive. All in all, nothing between 3 USB's and 1 external hard drive showed up on the Mac. Could this have anything to do with being logged into a guest account?
Transferring the file to a USB or external hard drive: FAILED
3. Uploading online: I've had two tabs open for the past 15 minutes: YouTube and Google Drive. Neither are showing any progress towards the upload. As I'm typing, both currently remain at 0%. I've also tried uploading the file through email, but Yahoo crashes before the upload even begins. In addition to this, I've tried uploading with Filemail.com multiple times. Each time it says it has "problems uploading"
Uploading online: FAILED
Is there anything I can do? Is there another method I can try? Perhaps theres a way to view the password hint without logging out of the guest account? Is there another way to access the "shared files" folder without needing the admin password? Is there anything that can be done about the USB's and the hard drive that won't show up? Is there a reason why the file won't upload online? I would really, really appreciate your help. Thank you in advance!

Can't connect Airport Express to my main wireless network, just my guest account.

I go to join my Airport Express to my wireless network so I can play music from Itunes to my sound system in my living room. That is all I want to use it for at this point. I pull up a list of the networks available, and my guest network shows up on the list, but my main network, which all my computers and Iphone is connected to, isn't on there. I have a Linksys E3000 with a guest account set up trhough it. Windows 7. I called tech support and they said something about a hidden setting. I went and checked and couldn't find anything about this. Also, when people come over they can access my main wireless account with my password.

Hi JWHITHAM and welcome to the forums!
Have you tried manually adding your wireless network to the iPod touch? Mine does the same too sometimes and I just add it manually. So far it works.

Can't automatically log out of guest account

I'm setting up a computer lab of Mac Minis. I want to set them up to automatically log out after 10 minutes of no activity. I have adjusted the necessary settings in the system preferences/security settings, but it still won't completely log out of the guest account. It will get stuck at the screen which reads "If you log out, your files will be deleted". It won't go further until you choose "Delete files and log out". This completely defeats the purpose of automatically logging out. I don't trust that the users of these computers will actually log themselves out every time.
How can I change this so that this pop up screen doesn't show up but the computer just logs out?

No I haven't found a solution to this. I'm not sure what the deal is, but this seems to be an oversight of the Snow Leopard developers as far as I can tell.

Enable A Guest Account So We Could Save Restriction Settings

How about a setting that will enable at boot up an option to log in main user (admin) or Guest account? And in the main user's restriction settings allow you to configure what apps the guest account can access. Then all you would have to do is set that 4 character password prompt for main user and allow guest to log in without a password. Then depending on your restriction settings you could make this thing a little bit more secure for families and multiple users. Any app purchases would still be under main user and need a password. I think this is doable. So say we all! ?

I guess I don't see it as a personal device. Since it has the ability to replace what most users use a laptop for. iPhone's size was holding it back from being the netbook killer. Now we have the larger version the iPad. iPad's OS has already started of on it's own path from the iPhone OS. So why not just put some chrooted dummy guest account option in it. So the multiple user household can have some way to save restriction settings and protect the main account.
My kids (5 and 3)are very good with my old G4 iBook and 1st Gen iPhone. Although there was that one time my son pulled all the keys off the iBook and the iPhone has been dropped like a hundred times on the hardwood but it still works.
If iPad is going to be a wonderful tool to help educate my kids since I didn't have to show my kids how to work the iPhone. They just figured it out. I hope some good EDU apps come out soon.

ISE 1.3 Guest account Activate

Hi,
Has anyone worked with ISE 1.3 with creating guest accounts using sponsor portal.?.
Our issue is that whenever we create new guest account using sponsor portal the account is shown as "Created" not as "Active". When we try to use the same account in guest portal it gives authentication failed and shows as "account is not yet active" in ISE report. (please see the attached file)
Can anyone tell how to make new account active or why it shown as "created" not as "active"?
thanks in advance.

Hi there,
I am having the exact same problem with my ISE 1.3 deployment after upgrading from 1.2 to 1.3 .
The issue seems to relate to timezones (as a lot of ISE problems do!) .
The issue relates to settings under Guest Access -> Settings ->Guest Locations and SSID . You should have defined a location local to you, for me it is 'Southampton, Europe/ London', the San Jose entry cannot be removed.
There should be an option to select timezone in the Sponsor Portal but it is missing so defaults to 'San Jose'. This causes a time-zone mis-match between between the account itself and the SSID location.
However if you create a guest account using the admin GUI: Guest Access -> Manage Accounts, although you still cannot select the timezone it will choose the correct one for the SSID and you will then be able to use the account via the Guest Portal. I don't know what would happen if you had a second SSID and alternative location, it would probably be totally broken!
I have raised this issue with TAC three weeks ago, and had a webex with the Business Unit last week. They saw the issue and took some debug logs, all very helpful people, but the problem is still unresolved.
cheers,
Seb.

ISE Guest account expired but user still authenticated

I would have thought that when the account was no longer valid the switch would have gone back to its default state. Also on the legacy NAC you could see the guest accounts as a local account, when we create a guest account throught the sponsor portal we don't see it in the Guest Identity group. We are looking @ that group for within one of our authorizational profiles.
Thanks,
Joe

I put the command authentication timer reauthenticate 60 on interface fa0/2, setup a guest account that was restricted to 1 hour. The guest account has now expired but the interface still shows authenticated:

I assume that the value for the command is in seconds, correct?

Strange behavior with System Preferences involving Guest Account

I work for a company that primarily uses macs and I have recently been asked to enable the Guest Account on all of them (as well as a general staff login). In doing this, I have come across at least one computer (they all run 10.5.5 or 10.5.6) where it seems impossible to enable the Guest Account. Here is what happens:
1. I open System Preferences, go to the Accounts pane, authenticate, and click on the Guest Account.
2. I check the option to "Allow guests to log into this computer" and a little busy sign shows for a second.
3. I click on another account in the list on the left.
4. When I click back to the Guest Account, the checkbox is unchecked. Also, the Guest Account does not appear in the fast user switch menu.
After tinkering around a little bit, I found that there was a "Guest" home folder in the Users folder. I thought that this was strange because I thought that this folder is created when you actually log into the guest account (I checked on another computer and found that this was indeed the case). I then deleted this "Guest" home folder and emptied the trash.
I again went through the same steps I did above (with a Finder window on the Users folder displayed) and found that when I check the box to enable the Guest Account, a "Guest" home folder appears in the Users folder. I deleted and repeated this process a number of times, all with the same result. I then began looking around for other occurrences of this problem.
At some point, I came across this discussion, which seemed to pose a possible solution: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9176908#9176908
As suggested in that thread, I tried creating a standard user with a home folder by the name of "Guest" or "guest". I filled in all the fields but when I clicked on "Create Account", it seems to work and then goes back to the Accounts preference pane except that the account I just created +*is not there!*+ I then tried this while the "Guest" home folder existed in the Users folder and it brings up a window asking whether I want to use the current "Guest" home folder as the home folder for the new account. Even if I click OK, +*the account still does not appear.*+
Does anyone know what is going on here? The next thing I'll try is an archive and reinstall, but a quicker fix would be nice, since the former involves running all the updates again (we don't have current versions of the Leopard install disks).
I would be very grateful if anyone has an answer.
-Nik

As it turns out, the Guest folder behavior is actually normal, but I still have not figured out why the guest account still doesn't work. My next step will be to try a disk repair. I've repaired the permissions, but that didn't seem to help as far as I know. I'll also try reinstalling the combo updater to 10.5.6 (as suggested by a co-worker) and see if that does anything. Last resort is the archive and reinstall.

ISE sponsor portal guest accounts

I am having an issue with guest accounts that have been created in the sponsor portal, some accounts work fine but others show up in the authentication logs on ISE as error 22056. This error points to ISE not looking in the right identity store but when you go deeper into the details all auth requests are pointing at the internal users store which is correct.
My main problem is that when I try to look at these accounts from the ISE admin console to see if there is any difference between them they do not show up i.e. no accounts that are created on the sponsor portal are displayed in the internal users database but if you try to create an account with the same user name ISE says that there is already an account with that name.
Is there any where on ISE to display the sponsor guest accounts?
Regards
Craig

Hi,
not too sure if I am missing something but this just tells you how to use the sponsor portal? my query was based around being able to see all user accounts i.e. accounts created in the sponsor portal and from the admin from the admin console in the admin console.
If I web browse to the ISE admin console and the go to administration-Identities I can only see the accounts that I have created through ISE admin, if I try and create an account that I know exists on the sponsor portal ISe complains that the user already exists but you cannot view it. This seems very odd, why wouldn't an admin be able to see all accounts?
thanks
Craig

Linksys E2000 enable guest account password

I'm trying to set a password for my guest account in Cisco Connect. But after I click complete (voltooien on the screenshot)
it stays an open network.
My main WLAN is protected with WPA2.
How can I enable the password for the guest account?

I disconnect the lan cable.
The wireless window popped up.
     Choose unsecured network
                 check Something-guest
                 Something-guest    is an unsecured network - connect anyway
                 finally I get: a window that says
        Successfully connected to Something-guest
There is no login password popup
so I try to connect to google,   I just get the standard   "Internet explorer cannont connect to web page"
   I should get the Cisco intercept page to log me in
The Network and sharing center shows a X between the router and the internet
I only have two devices connected to router. Desktop (main) and laptop.

Guest account shows up
