Help for user accounts

Hi all, I have a problem that I am trying to resolve. I have a new computer with a partition M: that is dedicated to music only. I am going to import all my music from an external hard drive. There are 3 users that will be using Itunes on this computer, 2 administrator accounts..and my wifes limited account. My wife and I each have an Ipod to link to our own account. What I want to do is have Itunes add the songs to each of these accounts when I import music to the Itunes music folder in (M:). I created a shared folder in (M:) and put the Itunes music folder in it, but my songs are only recognized by the main administrator account. How do I get them to the other Users? I figure that this is possible because the shared folder on (C:) that has the two sample songs in it, makes those songs available to each user but I'm going crazy trying to figure this out..... Thanks in advance

iTunes does not at present have any feature for watching folders and automatically importing tracks you add to a folder. Here are a couple of potential solutions from other developers, though:

How to force password policy requirements on password resets for user accounts reset by the Administrator?

OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise
Domain Level: 2008
Forest Level: 2000
We have Domain Administrators in our domain that reset passwords for user accounts, and the passwords the Administrators set them to are not being enforced follow our default domain password policy. For example, I log on the domain controller, as an administrator
and can reset a password for a user account to be blank.
Is there a reason Domain Administrator password resets for user accounts are not enforced by our default domain password policy? Is there a way to enforce this on password resets by Domain Admins?

Do you have fine grant password policy? If not ; by default all the usrs are effected by domain level password policy even domain admins,

Need help for user exit mereq001

Hi,
I need help for user exit mereq001. I think I messed up with include table CI_EBANDB and CI_EBANMEM. And When I tried to check the syntax . It gives me error like : <b>Class IF_PURCHASE_REQUISITION. Inconsistency in the dictionary for the structure mereq_item_s_cust_data.</b> Anyone had experience for this exit? I just need to extract costcenter information of the each item from the requisition and block the requisiton if the costcenter are differents from each other before the requisition is saved. Any one has idea about it?
Thanks.

biao,
Have you checked this struture consistency from SE11. Also check the activation log.
If there are any errors and you are not able to rectify the same use RSDDCHECK program, give your table name and run the report.
This will list down the error structures releated this table and also prompts for you to activate it.

Duplicate SPN for user accounts

Hi Support,
I get an error on the system log like the below - but is bringing up a user account rather tham for a computer account; for duplicate SPN:
The KDC encountered duplicate names while processing a Kerberos authentication request. The duplicate name is username. (of type -17). This may result in authentication failures or downgrades to NTLM. In order to prevent this from occuring remove the duplicate
entries for username in Active Directory.
Steps in the article KB321044 is for computer accounts and not for user accounts; is there any relevant steps for user accounts having duplicate SPNS ?
Thanks,
Arun

I've followed the above steps and does not seem to resolve my issue and the below error on system log repeats:

Creating HELP for users

Hi!
Does anyone know how I could incorporate already written help into my application, let say via link "Help" in the header of my application. I already have help for users of my application written in .doc file. Is there any way to upload this help (I have docTo Help tool available so I can trnsform this file into .chm file or javahelp file or html help file) into static files and then use it in some way in my application.
Thnx,
Nataša

Nataša,
Yes, you can make that file available. There are several ways to do it but the easy ways are probably not the best long term strategies. Did you want to start with the easy way anyway?

Flash player only works for user account installed with

Hi all
I've different user accounts on my PC for me and my son.
Somehow Flash Player 10 only works for the user account I installed Flash player with.
In case I install it using my account it will not work for my son's account and vice versa.
How can I solve this?
Thanks
Mario

I've struggled with this for a long time. Here is what I've come up with.
Adobe tech support recommended this:
1. Log in as Admin
2. Download the following zip file from here:
www.supportflash.com/reset_all.zip
3. Unzip this folder onto your desktop.
4. Drag both files ‘reset_min_all.cmd’ and
‘subinacl.exe’ to your
desktop.
5. Run the reset_min_all.cmd file.
6. It will open a DOS like terminal and start
running through registry
keys.
7. When it is finished it will say “press any key
to continue”.
8. At this point you can install the latest Flash
Player:
for Internet Explorer:
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/ts/documents/tn_19166/Install_F
lash_Player_9_ActiveX.zip
other browsers:
http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer
9. Check that Flash Player is working for the
Admin.
10. Check that Flash Player is working as the
other 2 users.
I hope this information helps. Feel free to reply
if you need further
assistance on the issue discussed here or file
a new case if you want to
report a new issue in the Support Portal:

I can't recall whether I had to run this in each account or not. It somewhat worked for me. If the accounts were all set up as admin accounts, flash worked in all the accounts after that. If one account was admin and the rest were limitied (I'm running xp home) it wouldn't work in the limited account.
I gave up and reverted back to flash player 9 via NOrton go back
It must be a permissons issue of some sort. I just don't have the patience to figure it out.
Good Luck,
Let us know what you figure out

Parse Security Logs for User Account logon Computer Name

Greetings,
I was recently tasked with creating a list of user accounts and the computer in which they logged onto. Unfortunately, we do not have time to use the logon script method. I believe we can achieve this goal using software similar to LANSweeper
however not all computers will be turned on at a given time and I believe this application gathers it's information from the client PC. One possible solution I see is parsing the data from our domain controllers Security Logs / Successful Logons however
this is proving to be a challenge. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I was recently tasked with creating a list of user accounts and the computer in which they logged onto.
I believe we can achieve this goal using software.
There is no built-in tool to complete this task.
However, we can configure event log trigger to send email when specific logon events are generated.
Here are some related articles below for you:

Massive update for user account's passwords

Hello experts,
For our customer we need to create 100 users at QA system (for testing purposes). The idea is to set the same password for all of them. For that purpose, I will set my mail account for all these users and I will receive all the mails with every user account data and the idea is to set the same password for all of them.
Do you know if there is any way to change all the passwords at once instead of doing one by one (by accessing to the system with every user account and change its password)?
Thanks and best regards,
Isaac

Hello,
Possibility of mass password update will depend on your actual config:
- are you On-Premise or On-Demand?
- what type of directory configuration do you use? LDAP, SSO?
From within Sourcing this mass update cannot be done, but it might be possible to do with the help of the team that manages the directory itself.
Regards,
Bogdan

Help with User account on seperate drive please...

Hello... need a little help please...
I'm running 10.5.6. My boot drive is the fast, 64GB outer partition of a 5th drive on my MacPro. I used the Advanced Options in the Account pref pane in Leopard to move my Home Directory to an ultrafast 4 drive internal RAID. So far, so good.
In the past (before this bifurcated system) when I hit the road (I'm a photographer) I would just clone my boot drive which contained my User account to the MBP and go.
However now my System and User accounts are on seperate drives. I cloned the system to the MBP, but when I tried booting, it said it was unable to continue as it couldnt find the User Account. This is understandable as the User account was pointed to another drive, but the boot sequence didnt even give me a choice to create a new user account, or point the system to an existing user account on the MBP.
Seems I've got two choices. Either figure out a way to clone my System and my Home directory to the MBP, and have them recognize each other. Or give up this experiment and bring my Home directory back onto the boot drive.
Of course I could just keep a seperate system on the MBP, but find it much easier to clone the entire thing over from the MP with all my apps, settings, etc.
I'm not a UNIX junkie, but can follow instructions for using the terminal.
Can someone shed some light on this for me?
Thank you !!!!

I don't keep large files in my Home Directory. They live in another partition on the fast RAID.
But I do have lots of little ones. I'm now thinking that this is too much hassle for the small speed gain.
I'll move my home directory back to the boot drive and symlink folders if needed.
Thank you both.

Delete (-) for user account dimmed.

I had created a “Guest Account” that I would now like to delete, however I cannot. When I log into my administrator account, go to System Preferences and unlock the lock to allow changes and then select the guest account, the delete [-] for the guest account is dimmed. How do I get rid of this account?

Within the guest account, was there any higher privilege given to make it
equal to your main Admin account? In those cases where a secondary
account was given high privilege, that would have to be revoked prior to
being able to simply remove the account from the system.
Some access from the guest account may be holding up the delete process.
(This is an area where I have only read several things about; however I did
add a link and quote to this reply which may be of help if nothing else works.
But it has a limited answer, too; the main command is dimmed out, inviting
you to try other advanced or even routine maintenance on your computer.)
An account access permissions issue may likely only be a maintenance matter.
But check the settings used to create and maintain the Guest user accounts.
*See this topic:* "How do I completely disable the Guest Account in Leopard?"
http://www.askdavetaylor.com/completelydisable_guest_account_mac_os_xleopard.html
Sometimes, issues within accounts, users and privileges go odd; it may
be you would need to repair disk and disk permissions from the booted
Installer's Disk Utility version. Also, check and repair anything in the OS
that may have been lacking. There are times where general maintenance
is a way to fix odd issues that otherwise have no explanation.
Have you started the computer into SafeBoot, and when then in the admin
account, see about removing the guest or other user; or at least try to make
the settings function? Some extensions and system bits are inactive when
the computer system is booted into SafeBoot Mode, but you can use this to
an advantage since it does a basic repair on startup. Then run Disk Utility,
and its 'repair disk permissions' then when done, quit D.U. & restart normally.
There are several Support documents on the topic of user accounts and how
to manage them; some troubleshooting of them involves reading up on the
variable and ways you can change the settings. I'd use caution since there is
a way to Delete a Guest User Account that involves the terminal or root level
and fair attention to detail is required so as to not affect more than the one item.
A post in this Discussion tread tells of how to delete a guest user account:
http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1521487
From May 14, 2008 as contributed by V.K. to resolve another user's problem:
+"From an admin account uncheck the option enabling Guest account in accounts+
+system preferences and then enter the following command in terminal.+
*sudo dscl . delete /users/Guest*
+Please just copy and paste the above. That's very important, you don't want+
+to delete a wrong thing here. You'll have to enter your admin password which+
+you won't see (that's normal).+
*This command will delete the Guest user.*
+Now go to the accounts preferences and enable Guest. This should create+
+Guest user afresh and hopefully resolve the password issue. Restart and+
+try the guest user again. Double check and make sure that it's enabled."+
{This last part, should you need to re-create a guest user again.}
While I have not tried this, nor have I ever created a Guest User account in
any of my dozens of Macs, (prefer to create Standard user for daily use; or
try the Parental Controls to minimize damages an inexperienced user may
create in the process of over-reaching their grasp) I can see it may be handy.
Hopefully some of the above may be helpful. Usually if a system function is
acting oddly, sticks, or won't work correctly, some systematic maintenance
is likely behind the situation. To have and run AppleJack from single user or
perform other preventative actions to head off possible issues, are ideas, too.
Since I don't use AppleJack, and seldom need to run in the command line or
single user or terminal mode, some of that is out of my range. I've found most
of the issues I've read about can be prevented. However, if a user gets into the
OS and can move things around, trash or misplace important parts, etc; odd
things can happen. Unfriendly or careless/unwanted user access can mess it up.
Usually about once a month whether or not the computer needs it, I run OnyX
and have it complete all items check-marked in Automation, and have it set to
restart the computer when that group is finished. There are other tools in it, too.
Perhaps the combination of things can help; or just what Dave Taylor said.
Good luck & happy computing!

Unix Guru to help with User Account re-install.

I have a glitch in my main Administrator account which prevents Adobe Photoshop CS2 opening or importing files of any kind from any file.
A dialogue box tells me “Could not complete your request because of a program error.”
Adobe refers to Tech Note 331307 item 2, which offers tests and options most of which I have tried. When I establish a new User Account I am able to use Photoshop fine which suggests the Admin User Account is corrupted.
According to the tech note, my only remaining option is to re-initialize the disk and rebuild system completely. That is a very big task which I seek to avoid.
I have:
1. Run Disk Doctor over all Fonts in all folders and fixed or deleted damaged Fonts.
2. Run Disk Warrior and re-run Permissions with Xupport.
3. Opened as Single user, run fsck -f. remounted disk, moved and replaced db/netinfo and replaced AppleSetupDone. All confirmed OK but glitch remained for Photoshop CS2.
Can any Guru offer a Unix solution - or any solution, which avoids
re-formatting and building my complete system?
Alternatively, given I have many addresses and bookmarks to preserve in three browsers as well as my Mail and Address book, what is the best method by which to establish a new account and delete the old one.
Many Thanks
Mezolithic.

Hi Tony
Yes I can confirm that this doesn't wipe out address book details and Internet set-up prefs and bookmarks.
In fact putil cannot wipe out anything. It's purpose is to check the syntax of plist files or convert a plist file to another format. No conversion is taking pace here. The -s option means output is supressed, so if you don't see anything, it means there are no errors to report.
The * character means "all" , in this case all plist files.
Eg. If you wanted to list all of the document files ending in .doc, in say a Documents folder but not .txt files, you could specify *.doc. Similarly if you wanted to list all documents named reports, regardless of the extension, you would use reports.*
So that is the usage of *.
If you found this information helpful, please consider awarding stars. It is entirely up to you.

HELP PLEASE - user account

i accidentally changed the name of my user account. i originally had one user (say, USER1). i changed the name to (say, USER2). after doing this, i could not change the name back because it said that the name was already taken. so, i restarted the computer and i was taken to the default mac setting with all my personal settings and folders gone. so, i created another user with the name (USER2), and the computer said that there was already a user folder in that name and if i wanted to incorporate it into the account, so i said yes...and now i have two users (USER1 and USER2)...USER2 has my original setting but some of the things like my added widgets dont show up...
is there any way i can take everything back to the default settings with no USER2??

Search these forums for shortname and *changed user name*.
