I Can Add a new user, But the new user cannot logg in how can I solve this?

Hi there. When I add a new user every thing works great except when I try to logg this new user. The computer freezers at the logging window with the processing bar working indefinetly. To fix it I have to AppleCtrlpower swich to get out and restrat the computer. I can only logg in as the administrator... Can any one help me and point me to a right solution. Thank you!

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
It is difficult to tell why your new user account is not working, but one has to start some place.
First try Starting up in Safe Mode. Log in with the original user account, the restart the computer normally and log into the original user account. Go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Launch Disk Utility. Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel and First Aid in the main panel. Click Repair Disk Permissions. Quit DU.
Go to System Prefs > Accounts and recheck the new account, especially the login options. If everything seems OK quit System Preferences and restart. Try logging into the new accounts. If you have problems force shut down and Start up in Safe Mode again.
It may be easiest to just delete the new account and start over, as you do not yet have any data in it. However, if you want to continue to trouble shoot we can try it for a while.
Please post back with a report of your experience and any questions or comments you may have.
Good luck.

  • I installed the new firefox sync on my two computers, but the bookmarks are not synchronising. How do I solve it?

    Hello,
    I recently installed the new version of firefox sync on my computers (by unlinking the old version, and creating a new account), but the bookmarks are not synchronising. One of the computer turns with Windows 7 and the other with Ubuntu 14.
    I created the account with the firefox on the Windows computer, and some things were well synchronized on the Linux computer (ie Addblock was installed), but the bookmarks on the Linux firefox are empty.
    Could you please help me to solve this problem?
    Thank you very much.

    Type '''about:sync-log''' in the URL bar and hit Enter.
    Do you have any Error Reports?
    If so, open the most recent report (check the date to make sure it is from the new version of Sync). Then copy and paste the contents of that report to http://pastebin.com/ and post the URL to "your New Paste" to this forum thread so that we can review that error log.

  • An unknown error (-15006) occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device AirPort Express". How do I solve this?

    An unknown error (-15006) occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device to my AirPort Express”.  Does anyone know how to solve?

    It may be possible the where you have the AX located may just be in a spot where it does not get a good signal even it is only 8 feet away.
    I suggest that you download and install iStumbler. You will use it to determine the signal quality by making Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) measurements. This will be easiest if your Mac is a laptop ... or you can borrow one. When taking the measurements, you only want your "main" AirPort running as this is what we want to measure at the location of the AX.
    SNR (in dB) = Signal (in dBm) - Noise (in dBm)
    You can easily find the Signal and Noise value using System Profiler on your Mac laptop.
    ref: Click on the Apple icon on the menu bar > About This Mac > More Info... > Contents > Network > AirPort > Interfaces > en1 > Current Network Information > Find your wireless network > Signal / Noise
    While your still in the System Profiler, note the value for Transmit Rate.
    These values should be negative numbers. For example, mine currently read: -67 dBm / -95 dBm, with a transmit rate of 27 (Mbps). Plugging in these numbers yield: SNR = -67 - (-95) = 28. My Mac Mini is about four rooms away from my AEBS with about five walls between them. As you can see, the signal is still quite useable ... but the bandwidth is minimal, especially for streaming.
    SNR Guideline
    40dB+ SNR = Excellent signal
    25dB to 40dB SNR = Very good signal
    15dB to 25dB SNR = Low signal
    10dB to 15dB SNR = Very low signal
    5dB to 10dB SNR = No signal
    Please post back your results.

  • My songs in the library keep freezing when playing, how do you solve this?

    I've recently updated my iTunes software and since doing this each time I play one of my songs in my library, It keeps freezing and stuttering inbetween each song. Is there a bug on the latest software? How do i fix this.
    Thank you.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • Just upgraded to the latest version of iTunes. Now I get the message "the Item you requested is not currently available in the US store." When I click on OK, the dialgue goes away, but the store doesn't open. How do I fix this?

    Not sure why I am getting this message anyway. I wasn't trying to buy anything. I just upgraded and then I tried to access the store. I had two purchases that I had previously made from a different computer. I was going to download them to this computer as my iPod is synced to this computer and you can only sync it to one computer. I was able to view my account information and from there I was able to click on the Purchased link. I saw the two items and downloaded them. But I received an error about the second album. It said that I didn't have sufficient privileges. When I checked all the songs had downloaded. Only the booklet was missing. Maybe this has something to do with the issue, I don't know. As far as I know, I purchased everything from the US store. I don't even know how to switch to a different store.
    In any case, I can't access the store because the item I requested is not currently available in the US store. So why don't they just dump me at the home page instead of blocking me completely.

    It is working now. I no longer get the message about the item not being available in the US and I can access the store.

  • IPad background is red rather than black. I cleared history and cookies and restarted but the background is still red.  How do I fix this?

    IPad had a black background.  I lost the internet yesterday and now that it is back up and running, my IPad background is now red.  I cleared history and cookies and  restarted and it is still red.  Software is up to date according the the IPad.  How do I get my black background back?

    Only when i go to a different browser (like IE) after i clear it , then all that shows up is the pages i visited in IE , that is what bugs me , why is IE browsing history sowing up in Firefox ??
    Basically , i can clear the history in Firefox , and then for a example , go to Craigslist , using IE7 (launching it from a complete different Icon , in other words at that time i never open Firefox) , then after closing out , or even leaving open as it does not seem to matter , i go into Firefox , and hit History , and there is every place i visited in IE7 , on my History in Firefox
