I have a user who has emnabled FileVault on his account, running 10.6.8.
When he logs in, he sees the spinning beach ball, nothing else.
No desktop, nothing.
How can I dsiable FileVault and get his account back to normal?
Thanks in advance.

Is this possible?
Denying printing for a user is possible but you need to modify the CUPS configuration file. It is far easier to deny use of a specific printer for a user. Use the web interface to CUPS http://127.0.0.1:631/printers Find the printer you want to disable for a specific user. Click on the button "Set Allowed Users". You will then be able to list the users you want to have access or to deny access to that printer. If you deny access to the printer, it will not appear in the list of printers when they try to print.

    I have two ipods in my house that were set up under the same email.  I have since assigned two different emails.  How can I change the game center account so that is not shared by both ipods because it is for two different users and they are not happy?

    By "game center account", do you mean Apple ID?
    If so, you can change it.
    1. Tap settings and navigate to iTunes and App Stores
    2. Tap "Apple ID" and then tap "Sign Out"
    3. Log in with a different ID.

  • How can I see the Query view created for a different user

    Hi All,
    How can a user see the View of a query created for a different user??
    I would like some info about how to give access ( if it is a access problem) or tell me the steps to do that.
    Regards, Federico

    Hi all,
    Maybe I didn't explain me as i should or maybe you dont know what is a Query View. Lets try again, showing you the steps to open a "Query view".
    This way is from Bex Analyzer (Excel)
    I open the Bex Analyzer and connect to the system -> Open query -> Under "Type" choose "Query View"...this is just a different view of the original query (more or least columns/rows).
    This way is from Bex Web:
    Once you open/execute the query, you have a ComboBox to choose the view (previously saved)
    The problem that we have is that the views created for a user, can NOT be found by other user. The only user who can is the owner.
    Could it be an authorization problem? or is ther any configuration possible to see it?
    Thanks in advance, Federico

  • TS4147 I have 2 iphones on the same icloud for 2 different users.  We (the users) dont want identical contacts. How do I delete the contats from one phone without deleting them from the other phone.

    I have 2 iphones on the same icloud for 2 different users.  We (the users) dont want identical contacts. How do I delete the contats from one phone without deleting them from the other phone.

    You can't; not if the phones are sharing the same iCloud account.  If you want to keep your data separate, migrate one of them to a different iCloud account.  (You can continue to share the same iTunes ID.)
    To do this, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (this won't effect the other phone), choose Keep on My iPhone, sign back in with a different Apple ID to set up a new account, turn on your iCloud data syncing, then choose Merge to upload the data to the new account.  You can then go to icloud.com from your computer and delete the other person's data from each account.
    Another option if you're only concerned about not sharing contacts but wish to share everything else, is to set up a second iCloud account on one of the phones and sync contacts with the secondary account.  To do this, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off and choose Keep on My iPhone.  Then go to Settings>Mail,Contacts, Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, sign in with a different Apple ID to create the secondary account, and turn Contacts to On.  You can then go to icloud.com from your computer and delete the other person's contacts from each account.

  • How to reset all Internet Explorer 8 settings for a different user profile?

    Sometimes users on locked down PCs that need their IE settings reset to resolved issues such as improper/old cached credentials stored in the browser after a password change etc.  These issues can be resolved by opening
    Internet Options, Advanced tab, Reset, Delete All, Reset.
    The users cannot do this because the Advanced Tab is hidden by policy.  If an administrator logs in with a different account, of course, anything they change is in their profile and not the user's profile.
    Is there some way for an administrator user to log in and access Internet Control Panel settings for a different user's Internet Options so they can reset the browser for a limited user?
    We need a more streamlined way to do this instead of needing to either blow away the user's entire Windows profile or else go through the convoluted process of getting the GPO admins to undo the group policy for one user to unhide the tab, have the help
    desk reset the browser for the user and then have the GPO admins reapply the original policy.

    You can try the following script
    Reset Internet Explorer all Setting to default using PowerShell Script
    http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Reset-Internet-Explorer-20f838e7
    but this script still launches an interactive interface, you can ask in this form to improve the script to achieve an totally unattended process.
    The Official Scripting Guys Forum!
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/scriptcenter/en-US/home?forum=ITCG
    You can create a task schedule to trigger the process. When computer starts or
     IE open , the script launches itself automatically.

  • How do I disable iTunes for a single user?

    I recently purchased an iPhone and installed iTunes on my Windows Vista computer. It looks like iTunes was installed for all users. I typically have 2 windows user accounts active during the day. When I plug in my iPhone (with the included usb cable) iTunes tries to start for both users. One will succeed and I will constantly get error messages from the other until I unplug my iPhone. I always want my primary user account to start iTunes and connect to my iPhone when I plug it in and never want my secondary user to start iTunes or connect to my iPhone. Is there a way that I can just disable iTunes for my secondary user?

    Chris,
    Thanks for your reply. Where is this option available? I have checked all the tabs that show up when I select iPhone. I have checked all the menu items (including edit-preferences) and I have also right clicked on iPhone. I don't see an item anywhere that will let me control this.
    I am using iPhone 2.2.1 and iTunes 8.1, there are no updates available.
    thanks again,
    Jason

  • How can I change to a different user on iPad

    How can I change to a different user on iPad, please help!

    Unlike a computer, an iPad is designed for a single user.  You can't set up separate user accounts for multiple people on an iPad and give each user their own workspace.

  • E_ACT_TOO_MANY_ACTIVATIONS and Document is licensed for a different user account

    Thus far Adobe Digital Editions is the most complicated software to use in the universe- and I feel it may be the downfall of the entire E READER's existence.
    Here's why:
    1.) I created an account with adobe digital editions.
    2.) I purchased ebooks from Barnes and Nobles. com. These books are in EPUB format.
    3.) I downloaded said books from Barnes and Nobles .com to my PC. (windows XP)
    4.) I tried to open said files with ADE to transfer on my EREADER. No luck. I receive an error message stating that these files  are " Licensed under a different user account." Then I get the error "Too many activations)
    How are they licensed under a different user account?! I am the only user. Can someone please help me? I just want to move these two EPUB files into Adobe Digital Editions so that I may put them on my COOL-ER Reader.

    Hello Wjcawley,
    For the error E_ACT_TOO_MANY_ACTIVATIONS, I recommend creating a webcase. They have the option to reset your activations for this.
    Concerning the error that it is already licensed to another user, make sure you have the latest firmware installed on your COOL-ER reader. As some have been shipped with incorrectly configured firmware.
    Hope this helps.
    Kind regards,
    SyncWolf

  • How can i share documents with different users on the same mac?

    How can i share documents with different users on the same mac?

    Shared how? The other users can read the documents or you all can read and write the documents?
    The first is easy just place the documents in /Users/Shared anyone can access the files there and the other users will be able to read them.
    The second is a bit trickier.

  • How to disable iMessage for a single contact?

    Hello apple communites, I have a simple and hopefully simple to answer question..
    I am curious as to how to disable iMessaging for a single contact.  My sister when she got her phone number originally had an iPhone, she has since gotten an android and kept the same phone number.  However I am running into issues with text messages to her, my phone still thinks she has an iPhone and continues to send every text as an iMessage, resulting in a failed message.  I can easily hit the "send again as a text message" option and the message/picture sends as normal.  I however find this a bit fustrating, and have tried everything I can think of to attempt to disable this.  However all the online tutorials I can find regarding disabling iMessage turns the feature off completly, I don't wish to do that. 
    I have attempted to completely delete, (including all existing all texts and call history), and then re-add the contact, but that does not work either, my iPhone still attempts to send messages to my sister as an iMessge. Any help, if any, would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Your sister needs to disable iMessage on her iPhone if the iPhone is still available if she hasn't already done so.
    If she has, does she have iMessage enabled with the same Apple ID on another iOS device or on a Mac as was used to activate iMessage on her iPhone?
