I have a MAC OS X vs. 10.6.8/Suddenly cannot log in one user

Hi. We have two administrative users on this MAC and have logged in successfully forever. Suddenly this morning I could not log in, although my husband can. When I try to login, the computer briefly goes to my desktop and then immediately goes back to the login screen.
I checked the system log and this is the message that comes up when I try to login:
com.logmein.logmeinguiagent[420]: Session - Error occured:read errno: (9) Bad file descriptor

The Password/Login Items tabs only display for the account you're logged into. So, probably best to do everything from your account if you're an Admin.
You can force quit the LMI module in The Activity Monitor program located in the Utilities subdirectory of your applications folder. Select "All Processes" , sort by click the process column, click on the LMI task and click "Quit Process". Should be able to delete those items then.

I have a mac 10.5.8 with leopard i would like the newest one do i have to upgrade all of the previous first?

I have a mac 10.5.8 with leopard. I would like the newest does that mean i have to upgrade all the ones before?

If you have a PPC (G4 or G5) iMac you can not upgrade any further.
If your is an Intel based iMac:
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
(NB: PowerPC applications can still be run in Snow Leopard using Rosetta, but they will not work in later versions of OS X. For detailed information see this user tip: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6271 )
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is still available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Before installation you should back up all your data.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes (you will need the latest version in order to synch with mobile devices).
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
You can now upgrade to Yosemite OS 10.10 for free IF you have one of the following Macs, with not less than 2GB of RAM, and at least 8GB of available space on your hard drive:
Yosemite will run on the following Macs:
iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later), (15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later), (17-inch, Late 2007 or later)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
Mac Mini (Early 2009 or later)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
Xserve (Early 2009)
The requirements for Yosemite are the same as they were for OS X 10.9 Mavericks,
iCloud system requirements:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4759
If you cannot run Yosemite you can purchase the code to use to download Mavericks from the App Store (requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard):
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-Mavericks
or Mountain Lion:

I have a Mac OS X version 10.3.9, I cannot find a browser that is up to date and will play any video type files. Could anyone tell me if there is something up to date?

I have a Mac OS X version 10.3.9. I cannot find a browser that is up to date or one that will play any video type files. Could anyone tell me if there is something up to date? or can the software be updated on this computer to get up to date?

Visit MacUpdate or CNET Downloads and search for browsers. However, I doubt you will find any contemporary browsers that work with Panther.
Have you considered upgrading your OS, if possible, or getting a newer computer?
BTW, you've posted this in the Servers and Enterprise Software forum. In the future you should post in the appropriate forum for you question. This forum isn't the right one. Mac OS X v10.3 and earlier would be the right place to start.

My kids have somehow deleted lots of my apps. can i move apps from one user to another?

my kids have deleted alot of my apps from my account. Is there a way to transfer apps from one user to another?

You can export albums as a new library, just like you exported your projects. Then merge the albums into your library on your other computer.
When you export a selection of albums a a new library, Aperture will export and include the originating projects as well, so the exported library needs to be merged into the destination library, not "added", otherwise you will have duplicates.
For example: Exporting a project with two albums:

I have a white iPhone 4S. For some reason I cannot MMS only one of my contacts. I'll send a picture or video and it will go through, say delivered underneath the picture, then 30 seconds later it will say not delivered and I have to send it as a text.why!

I have a white iPhone 4S. For some reason I cannot send media (picture,video,etc.) with one of my contacts. I'll send a picture or video and it will go through, say delivered underneath the picture, then 30 seconds later it will say not delivered and I have to send it as a text message. Why is this happening!? It happens connected to wifi and not connected to wifi.
I appreciate the help, thank you!

If it says "Delivered" under it to begin with, then you're not sending it as an MMS, you're sending it as an iMessage. It's entirely possible the problem is on the receiving end.

How many installs? I have an old pc that is 7 years old, 2 recent laptops. only one user, me.

How many license installs? I have an old pc w 1 TB that is 7 years old, 2 recent used (HP and Dell) laptops. only one user, me. I have an external 4 TB drive that I want to bring in pictures from and edit. I want to find out which is better. Am I allowed to install 2 at a time, deactivate one and add another, and then finally removing all but one license.

Yes, you are allowed two activations at any one time. Once you have deactivated one, it is free for use on another.

I have a mac g5 tower running OS 5.8. but cannot download the latest firefox. What do I need? thanks

If i need to install other items does anyone know what they are? It would be so helpful if firefox would list items that need to be installed to enable use of newer format.

Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor (which you do NOT have; yours is a PPC Mac) '''''<u>and</u>''''' OSX 10.5 or higher

I have a Mac OS X Version 10.4.11 and cannot install Mac OS X Snow Leopard. Install 'stalls' and will not continue. Help!

After resisting an upgrade for the longest time, I had to purchase one to support my new iPhone 4, as my old version would not upgrade my iTunes. Now I cannot get the system to install. It 'stalls' and will not continue. I have tried 3 times [the definition of insanity: repeating the same behavior expecting different results] and each time I had to hard boot to even get the disk to pop out. Help!

Hi there. Thanks for even looking at my question! I am brand new in the community. I finally just gave up and went to bed, leaving it running and my sister watching it. Of course, it did indeed finally install but my gosh! I have NEVER seen something take so long! Thanks again for the email. Linda w/a new OS!

I have a Mac OS 10.7.5 and downloaded Adobe Reader, accepted the end user license, and the screen is

is black when trying to open a document. A pop up occurs and states to accept the end user agreement, which I did.

Download and install AppZapper (it's a free trial)
Launch AppZapper and drag the Reader app from yoru applications folder to the AppZapper window.
"Zap" it to the trash with all files in the window.
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plugins
Trash the AdovePDFViewer.plugin file and the AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin file.
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe
Trash the Reader folder (the whole thing)
Empty the trash
Download the offline installer and reinstall Reader
Double click the app in your Applications folder and accept the agreement.
Reader should work after that.

Tried removing the pre installed norton av again no luck, things were getting a bit flakey after all of the install/uninstalls so restored it one more time but this time only installed windows live mail and the pre installed office starter edition and still cant log on to an email server

Just have to give it some time. The activation and verification servers are all slammed right now 'cause of all the people trying to update at the same time. Give it a couple hours (or overnight if you can wait) and it should sort itself out.

I have two Macs.. how to install on both?

I have two Macs.. how to install on both? Also.. does one need to do a clean install i.e reinstall op system from a clean HDD?

Go to each mac and sign into the Mac app store with you apple ID. on the first one you will buy the app on the second one you will be able to just download it. Of course be sure to follow the licensing agreement.
You don't need to reinstall the OS, you will want a clean install next month of the new OS which may mean re-downloading the FCPX software.

IWeb cannot log into .Mac

iWeb suddenly cannot log into my .Mac account. When I select "publish", I get a brief "logging into .Mac" dialog box and immediately get a popup to sign in or become a member.
When I select "Sign in" I am brought to the .Mac dialog box from System Preferences. There's nothing to do, I reenter my password and nothing happens.
I can access my .mac account from other applications, so what gives? Any ideas? I can not longer publish...
iMac G5 (PowerPC) Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I had in mind the .mac keychain entry. I've you have deleted and recreated that, then you are probably right. Unfortunately, publishing errors can be very difficult to track down.
If you haven't done so already, I'd try deleting the iWeb plist. (com.apple.iweb.plist in the username/Library/Preferences folder).
Beyond that, I'd suggest working through Apnewbie's suggestions. You might also try searching the forums. I've seen the particular issue with .mac login before, but I don't remember what the resolution was.
I have been fortunate to have few problems with iWeb, but I do wish it proved more stable for more people.

I have a Mac Book Pro with a 320 gig hdd and my drive is corrupted and I can't engage it. So I would like to switch to a 1 terabyte drive can this be done?

I have a Mac Book Pro with a 320hdd, 2.33 processor, 8 gigs of RAM and OS X 10.9.4 . My hdd crashed and I cannot access it so is it possible to install a 1 terabyte drive with the operating software already installed and also upgrade my RAM to 16 gigs?

If I were you I'd install a small SSD as the boot drive from OWC:
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/SSD/OWC
Then put a second large conventional drive either in the optical bay (Data Doubler) or in an external.
You don't say which MBP you have: Size, CPU type.
Also when you upgrade you could see if you can salvage your data from your old HD. Can you hear it spin up? If so Data Rescue IV.

I have a Mac mini OSX 10.4.11 Intel Core Duo, 512mb, 1.83 GHz with iTunes 9.0.3. What steps do I need to take to get my music library to my iPad. I dont think I meet the requirements to just upgrad to snow leopard and/or lion. I want the music I paid for

I have a Mac mini OS X 10.4.11, intel core duo processor (not core 2 duo), with 512 mb and 1.83 GHz processor. I only have version 9.0.3 of iTunes because it hasn't let me go higher, which I believe is because of the operating system. I want to get my purchased music from the Mac mini to a different computer (that has the latest version of iTunes) and also my iPad. The Mac mini does not meet the requirements listed to simply upgrade to snow leopard or lion. As far as I can tell. Forgive me if I am lacking here...this is new to me. What can I do to get the music transferred. I have invested alot of money over the past few years on all this music that I should be able to transfer. Thank you in advance if you can help me.

If you want to sync it to the iPad from that Mac, you need to upgrade it to at least 10.5.8.
If you want to copy the music to another Mac, you don't. Move the iTunes folder of the item in the Finder's sidebar over as you would any other folder. If you put it somewhere other than the Music folder, launch iTunes with the Option key held down and point it to that location.
