How do I change the user log in screen background on Lion?

Note:I'm talking about the screen for Users Log where multiple users log in.
Right now the default is a solid grey. there has to be a way to change it to something more esthetically pleasing.

Look for a previous entry in this group
"Lion Default Login Window"  It was back around August 2nd or so.
There may be a better way than is listed in that thread but so far I haven't found it but I have been tied up with other Lion problems and have not really looked much further on the default login window issue.

    iCloud email addresses can't be changed or deleted, but you can set up an alias namethat he can use which will be linked to his current iCloud account and will receive email in the existing iCould inbox.  This guide explains how: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.

  • How to change the user of a cancelled background (batch) job?

    Hi All,
    I have a batch job which is being cancelled as the reference user account is locked. I want to update the job with a new user.

    How do I delete the old User and create my own name and settings?
    Really, the best way is to "fool" the system into thinking this is a first run system.  To do this, you need to do the following
    First, boot into single-user mode by powering the system while holding the cmd-S key combination down.  This should bring you eventually to a black screen with a Unix terminal display.  Type the following three commands (that period before AppleSetupDone is very important):
    /sbin/mount -uw / <cr>
    rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone <cr>
    shutdown -r now <cr>
    What should happen is that when the machine reboots after the last command, you should get a "Welcome to MacOS" routine which will ask you for user information and set up your new account using that information.
    After you get that done, you should, one way or another, be able to delete the folder of the old user in the Users folder, though you may need some help with that as well.

    I'm using an iMac with OSX 10.6.8.  The proceedure on your system is probably similar.
    Get the Facetime window up, and go to Facetime preferences.  Click on "account,"  you'll see a view account option that will prompt you to sign in with your Apple id and password.  From there you can make the changes that you want.

  • How do i change the resolution of my screen shots that i captured from my desktop?

    How do i change the resolution of my screen shots that i captured from my desktop?
    Thanks.

    Do you mean you want it saved with the resolution set to something other than 72 dpi when the capture is made, or do you mean you want your capture saved at a higher resolution than the captured area?
    1) If the first, there are ways to change the default capture format .png to something else, such as .jpg, .tif and a few others, but as far as I know, the resolution will always be 72 dpi. You can use Preview to change the resolution of the captured image under Tools > Adjust Size. You will get this:
    If your intention is to set the resolution for professional printing defaults, then change the resolution to 300. Turn off Resample image to prevent the image from actually having more pixels added. The resolution will simply be reset from 72 to 300 dpi without changing the actual number of pixels in the image. It will also print a lot smaller since the output device will now use 300 pixels per linear inch instead of 72.
    Leave Resample image on if you need to maintain the dimensions. Be aware however that scaling the image (resampling) will add a lot more pixels to the image than are there to maintain size. Expect the image to get very soft and pixelated looking when adding 417% more data to the image than it currently has.
    2) If you mean you want the OS to actually save the captured area as a high resolution image at size, that can't happen. A capture is a 1:1 grab of the display buffer. It can only capture what's there. So if you capture a 700 pixel x 500 pixel area, that's all the bigger it can be without scaling it afterwards.

  • How much costs change the iphone 5 retina screen?

    how much costs change the iphone 5 retina screen? i'd need know it, my retina screen is broken

    Apple reportedly now will replace the screen in an iPhone 5 for US $149. Availabllity of repair services may vary by country, and I'm not sure if other models of iPhone also can be repaired, so call Apple Support or visit an Apple Store and ask for information. For other problems Apple at this time does not at this time repair iPhones, but will replace the entire iPhone for a flat fee. If you have AppleCare+ coverage, the cost will low; in the US it's $49. If you do not have AppleCare+ on your iPhone, see the Service Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq/
    There are independent iPhone repair services that may be able to do the repair for less than Apple's out-of-warranty charge. Do a web search for "iPhone repair". Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPhone serviced by an unauthorized shop, all further warranty and support from Apple will be voided.
    Regards.

  • How can I change the User Password expiry date

    Hi,
    I want to know how can I change the password expiration date of my user without changing his password. For eg:-
    User password expires on 12th May 2007. I want to extend to 12th Jun 2007. Is there any option in Oracle.
    Alter User <USERNAME> password expire .....<to new date>;

    The command is not alter user set expire...
    You should modify the user's profile, and set a timeframe:
    ALTER PROFILE DEFAULT LIMIT
    PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME = num_of_days;
    This way your password will be valid from the last time it was changed and for the time frame previously defined.

  • How do you change the user for Home Sharing on the Apple TV?

    I need to change the user on the Apple TV for Home Sharing but can't figure how or where to do it in the Apple TV settings. Can anyone help? Thank you.

    I bought my ATV at the Apple store Zurich Switzerland.  All the movies default to German. I hired a US movie and pressed and held the play/pause button once the movie had started but only the chapter menu displayed and there were no options to change the language (from the default German to English)
    Are all movies flagged on Swiss accounts only available in German? Is there a way of pointing my ATV to a different server.
