How do I create a local account from a network login from the command line?
I am connecting to my organization's domain using 3rd party software which doesn't allow for using the GUI for creating local accounts. How can I do this through the command line or is there a better way to script it? Thanks in advance!
What you're looking for, I think, is mobile accounts with portable home directories.

How can I start a second window of a second profile through the command line?
I have two profiles set up, 'default' and 'second'. If both are already running how can I start a second window of profile 'second'?
firefox -p 'second' : opens a new window of the default and,
firefox -p 'second' -no-remote : tells me that firefox is already running.I don't think that this is possible.<br />
You need to open this second instance (Firefox profile folder) with the -no-remote command line switch and that makes it impossible to open external links via the command line or via a double-click.<br />
You can only open a link in such an instance by dragging the link on the tab bar of that Firefox window. -
How do i create a local account in mac mail?
I have lost the account "On My Mac" How do I get it back or create a new local account
Thank you for your answer but unfortunately I did not ask the question or state the problem correctly. I am able create a new mailbox on my mac but I would like to get this to show up in My Contacts as a Local Account.
Maybe I should ask th question another way by stating that I wish to create a group of contacts locally on my mac from the contacts that are on iCloud. Is this possible? -
How do you change network settings at the command line when they were set in the
Ubuntu server setup in a remote location awhile ago, with GUI packages. Currently at
version 14.04 LTS. There is ssh access to the remote server.
After a lot of digging thru typical command line configs and not finding the existing
settings anywhere, it appears the only way to update existing settings -- DNS
name servers, IP's, etc. -- is using a GUI method, such as gsettings or unity-control-center.
However,
gsettings doesn't appear to have those particular items.
Is
the only option to use a remote version of Unity .... or just get someone
on-site and remedy this thru the GUI?

I used one mini DV Tape for my footage and captured the whole thing into CS6 in one go and so the capture should have been the same throught all of the film. Once I had edited the tape on to the timeline some of the clips are 16.9 widescreen and others are 4.3 standard.

I Have an apple iPod touch 2 and I was wondering how do I create an apple account without an accredit card
Chrystal Kitty the instructions/link provided by roaminggnome
allows you to creast a new ID without a credid card or gift card so you can download free app.

Mine didn't need a credit card until I wanted to use the app store, and then I added a gift card.
So, if you mean to download a free app, you need a form of payment. There is no way to do so without a credit or gift card. -
How do I create a new account and get stuff from the old account to the new account
How do I create a new account and get stuff from the old account to the new account
There are instructions on this page for creating a new account : Set up an Apple ID in iTunes
Or if you don't want to give credit card details : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method
But you won't be able to transfer purchases from your old account to it, all content that you download from the store will remain tied to the account that downloaded it. -

How can I create my icloud account?.
Hey there!
It sounds like you are wanting to create an iCloud account. Take a look at this info from the following article:
How do I sign up for iCloud?
You can sign up for iCloud on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later, or through System Preferences on a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.4 or later. Just follow the setup instructions for your iOS device or Mac.
You may need to verify the email address that you use for your Apple ID. See Frequently Asked Questions About Apple ID for more information.

How do you create separate iCloud accounts
not real computer savy. How do I create different iCloud accounts, so we are not sharing everything?
on iPhone? If you share an iPhone I amafraid you will have to share "everything" unles every time you will be going to settings and reconfigure it.
Otherwise, go to your computer and from different account create an iCloud account. -
How can I reset my security question and I cannot create a new account because I have £18 on the account that I can't remember the security questions to
If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them : go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account, then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use, or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570 -
HT2731 how can i create apple id account if i don't have credit card?
how can i create apple id account if i don't have credit card of any gift certificates from itunes?
You already have an Apple ID, or you wouldn't be posting here. I presume you mean an iTunes Store account. If you only want the free apps, take a look here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID.
You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free content without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)

How do i creating multiple icloud accounts for one itunes account

I have an iPad and an iPhone that share an iCloud account. I didn't realize when I got my iPad last year that when I signed up the iCloud on the device that it would share and use 5g of iCloud between the both of them. How do I unsync them and have two separate iCloud accounts? I don't care about sharing between them. When my kids put games on my iPad, I don't want them going on my phone. How do I create a new iCloud without losing any info on the other device?
