Icloud: can't login, serious server side issues

I'm having serious issues whith iCloud, can't sign in. I have two appleID's: 1 @mac.com and 1 @me.com (although the account name on appleid.apple.com is withouth the email-suffix "@me.com")
I would like to login in on iCloud.com with my @me.com AppleID and on iTunes with @mac.com. Off course merging the two AppleID's would be better.
Issue:
Can't login on mac os x 10.7.3 (Safari icloud.com, system preferences) with neither AppleID's
Safari icloud.com: Connection error, icloud error while connecting to server
Sys prefs: you can't login this moment
Depending where I login, It works with @me.com or without the mail-suffix
Can login on iphone/ipad/ appleid.apple.com
Tried:
- little snitch not present
- deleted ~/Library/AppSupport/iCloud/Accounts
- emptying Safari cache
- resetting passwords on appleid.apple.com
Other observation:
- could login with safari on other account (guest), no longer possible
- after deleting account on iphone, recreating account logged in with me.com appleID, login works but shows @mac.com account name
- on iOS password from mac.com appleID works with me.com
- can login on appleid.apple.com with both appleid's (with correct passwords)
- me.com accountname is NOT in the form of an email addres, when trying to change accountname in a me.com address, this gets refused

Just upgraded to 10.7.4.
Solved some issues.
I can login via System Preferences and with iTunes with two different accoutns. Although. I have to use the password of the @mac.com AppleID to login with the @me.com AppleID (wiht mail-suffix). Like on my iPhone before.
If I login on the Apple support site I have to use the @me.com (without the mail-suffix) and the correct password.
Understand who can.
Left to check: Fotostream, but first I have some real work to do. Thorough troubleshooting next week.
I'm no programmer but I've administered servers (solaris, mac, win) for 8 years in a multi-tier environment and I'm rolling out an identity mgt system in a 40k employee organisation at the moment.

Can't see BlazeDS server side log

Hi,
I'm running JBoss 5 EAP and BlazeDS 3. I don't see any server side log for BlazeDS even though I followed BlazeDS documentation. Following is the logging section in my services-config.xml:

According to the documentation, I should see log entries for BlazeDS in JBoss server log. But I didn't. Can anyone help me out with this issue?
Thanks.

Sorry, just as an addedum, I can connect through a hard connection, but I can't access Screen Sharing

Creating Login Pages - Server Behavior Issues

Hello,
I been trying to find a solution to this problem for this
past week.
I'm having issues with creating a login page. First, I get
the page created with a username text box, password text box, save
username checkbox, etc. Next, I add the server behavior for 'User
Auth' - 'Login User'. Now..here's the problem. When I complete
that, I get this error (SEE BELOW). Somehow the server behavior
duplicates. I can't go on until I make one of them unique from the
other. I tried every which way to delete it, but I can't. Any
suggestions?
SERVER BEHAVIOR ERROR
"The server behavior panel cannot determine whether "Log In
User" or "Log In User" is applied to your page. Please select Edit
Server Behaviors and change one of the 2 behaviors to ensure that
each is uniquely identifiable."
NOTE: By using the "-" sign above the panel, I can't remove
the duplicate.
Also, when I create a login page, I do need to insert a form
first("form1") and then place the username, password, checkbox
inside that "form1" form I just created, correct?
Thanks for all your help!

You could do a redirect on the page that they do land on once
succeeded.
My personal preference would be to make one page, and only
show the user
groups parts of the page that they are allowed to see.

"Safari can't find the server" - connection issues under Lion

Hi there,
Since upgrading to Lion, Safari has been displaying this odd and annoying behaviour, where, for some links to some web resources (like maybe 2 clicked links out of 10), it throws up a grey error page telling me it can't find the server (screenshot below):
Normally, this error would be evidience of an intenet connection issue (but it isn't). If I immediately try to find the same resource via another browser (Firefox or Chrome), those other browsers navigate to the site absolutely fine. Although, occasionally (though with less frequency) I'm also getting a similar "Can't find stuff" error with Chrome too.
In the Safari address bar (is this significant?) there isn't even a URL, but a file path to file:///Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Resources... what does that mean?
Hints from other threads would indicate that this is a Firewall issue, or maybe there's another third-party app causing problem, rather than a problem with Safari under Lion specifically.
But I'm really bugged and irrittate by this. Anyone had a similar experience? Anyone with any ideas? How might I go about finding out what's causing this and fixing it?
Best wishes,

It's most likely a problem with corrupted files in the Safari Cache or corrupted cookies.
Go to Safari menu bar
Click on Safari
Click "Empty Cache"
Restart Safari
If the problem persists...
Go to Safari -> Preferences
Go to privacy
Click "Remove All Website Data"
Restart Safari

Can't login to server as administrator

Hello,
after e restart from a 10.6.7-Server (XServe) it is impossible to login through screen sharing nor ssh as administrator.
As Server Admin and Workgroup-Manager shows me it seems to work properly.
In the moment it is impossible to put a keyboard to it, any other suggestions?
Thanks!

Hello Craig,
I think not… I gave permissions for all services to all users and groups just now, any results.
I can't login with root, nor with ladmin.
I was at the server directly today, started up with a screen and a keyboard, any possibility.
An older System started without problem, from an externel HD no problem, from System DVD no problem.
Single user mode worked (but I can't do too much in it).
Safe boot didn't work, there was a kernel panic!
Because all the other systems worked, I think there is a software failure. I really would like to find the error and not to re-initialize the server - there was too much work in it!
Thanks for further help.

Can't login to server, from Server.app

I have a very odd problem. After an clean install of Lion Server 10.7.2 i can't access my server from server.app or Server admin?
I have tryied this solution but no luck http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3960?locale=en_US
The servermgrd IS loaded?
Anybody theres have a clue??

As root go to /System/Library/LaunchDaemons and edit com.apple.servermgrd.plist and change the "Disabled" boolean to "<true/>". Then say:
launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.servermgrd.plist
For some reason that I have not discovered yet the system keeps changing the bool back to "false" on occasion.

Can't login to server while trying to add a new member to group.

While trying to login to add another user to the enterprise group, "unexpected error" comes up hence can't login to create a new user, although sending the new user an invitation.
Can someone please solve this asap?

I figured it out. For any of you having problems with the new Sync (there are lots of posts out there from unhappy people) I have the fix.
If you revert back to FF 28 everything works great. FF staff will tell you about the gloom and doom of using older versions. They don't seem too concerned that those of us who have relied on Sync for years and probably only use FF because of Sync are unhappy with the new less secure version and in my case can't even register a new account.
I think you can get away with going up to higher versions and maintaining the old Sync. If anyone knows what the highest working version is please post it. I will probably upgrade one version at a time to see where it stops working and will post here.

Can't login to server after upgrading to 2012 R2 from 2008 R2.

I upgraded my Server 2008 R2 server to Server 2012 R2 standard. I am at the login screen. I press control + alt + del and select the Administrator account (as usual). I enter my password and press enter. The screen turn black
and flickers, and then returns to the control + alt +delete screen. No matter how many times I attempt to login, it doesn't work. If I reboot the server, it rolls back to 2008 R2.
What can I do to get past this issue?

Hi Smidley,
In addition, I also recommend you can follow this article to perform the upgrade and feedback.
Note: you need to evaluate if software installed on your Windows Server 2008 R2 is compatible and supported on Windows Server 2012/2012R2. When you find any incompaticle software you need to upgrade or uninstall.
Windows Server 2008R2 in-place upgrade to Windows Server 2012/2012R2

Can't login to Server App

I was working on my Mac Mini Server when it suddenly crashed and I was forced to press the power button to shut down. When I restarted my Mac Mini Server it started beeping so I powered off again.
Then I powered on my Mac Mini Server and it worked fine. However when I tried to open the Server App and tried to login it was not accepting my login details even if they were correct. Each time I tried the Server window just shakes.
Can somebody please help me in resolving this issue.
Thanks

As root go to /System/Library/LaunchDaemons and edit com.apple.servermgrd.plist and change the "Disabled" boolean to "<true/>". Then say:

Can't login to Server app after hardware and hostname change

I used Carbon Copy Cloner to completely clone a Mac mini Server onto another Mac mini Server. (The idea being that I can install and configure additional software just once and then easily set up identical servers by copying all hard drive contents.) This seemed to work great – the second Mac mini runs fine, including logins, networking etc.
To avoid conflicts between the two servers, I changed the computer name in System Preferences/Sharing and ran:
sudo scutil --set HostName someothername
sudo changeip oldip newip
The problem is that the Server app won't let me log in on the second Mac mini. It lists "This Mac" in the "Choose a Mac" dialog, but when I enter the correct username and password, login is refused (the login dialog is "shaken"). But the same login works for the operating system and SSH, and the account was definitely "allowed to administer this server". On the original Mac mini I cloned from, I can login with this account just fine.
I even added the user account to the "Open Directory Administrators" group using ldapmodify on the command line, but that didn't help.
Is it possible that there's something in the user directory that's bound to the hardware (maybe the Ethernet MAC address) or the hostname?
Do you have any idea how I could fix this? I'm grateful for any help…

this hasn't worked for me.
When i follow the additional steps using terminal, the second command brings back the same outcome - 'David is not in the sudoers file. this incident will be reported'.
I've been having trouble with login on for a week but didn't realise this was the problem. I've reset passwords, reinstalled OSX (twice) and now, bizarrely, i can log onto the mac mini as the administrator, but once logged in, the 'administrator' password doesnt work for anything. I can run Software Update because it comes up with a message:
"Software Update wants to make changes. Type an administrator name and password to allow this".
I then put in my password but it shakes and tells me its wrong.
Can anyone advise any other solution? I'm kind of stuck - because the system doesn't recognise my admin password for updates, i cant update anything. And also because my itunes library was set up by a newwer version (I reinstalled OSX believing it would fix it reverting it back to a previous version) i can't listen to any music.

Can't login to Server.app after 10.7.3

I installed the 10.7.3 Server Combo update today, and now when I try to use Server.app to administer my server, it just shakes to tell me they are invalid (even though I'm logged in to the server with that username/password). Anyone else run into something like this?

Solution to iCloud "cannot connect to the server" upgrade issue

I have just switched my iPhone 4s to a new carrier. (iOS 7.0.4)
Once the previous carrier (finally) unlocked its activation grip, all went well through restoring the phone. One issue remained:
iCloud wanted me to "agree to new terms of service" and would not allow me to do anything else with it. But when I tapped the button to "read the terms of service" the dialogue "Cannot connect to the server" popped up.
The solution turned out to be relatively painless:
Make sure you have backed up any Photo Streams that are present on your iPhone. (I use Aperture for this.)
At the bottom of the iCloud settings screen (Settings->iCloud) tap the "Delete Account" button. You will be warned that photos, documents, etc., will be deleted from your iPhone. As long as you are confident of your backups, tap "Delete" in the warning dialogue.
If you have "Find My iPhone" enabled, you will need to enter your Apple ID and password to turn it off. This is the only way to gain access to this setting that I could find.
Cold-boot your iPhone (Power + Home). I suppose you don't HAVE to do this, but seemed like A Good Thing.
Return to the iCloud settings screen and turn iCloud back on. Enter your Apple ID and password. Double-check that "Find My iPhone" is enabled, if desired.
You will be asked to allow iCloud to merge documents, contacts, and so on with the information on your iPhone. Do this as desired. (I do not yet use iCloud for most of this.) Your Photo Stream will eventually show up again by itself.
Hope this helps, and I'm all ears if there is an easier and potentially safer solution!

I have the same problem. Did you solve it already?

Can't login to mac - keyboard issue?

Hi
I'm hoping someone can help me with this...I can't get an appointment at an apple store until a week away.
When I go to login into my MacBook I start typing my password DVD the keyboard seems to start entering letters of its own. Plus when I am able to type my password in and press enter the computer won't recognise it (capslock is off). It also makes a continuous beeping/drumming noise when I go to switch it on. I have no idea where to start with this...could it be a keyboard issue? Or a virus? Also I have FileVault enabled as well.
Would appreciate any advice!
Thank you

This is probably a hardware problem. Clattering noises are usually either a bad CD or DVD or a bad optical drive, or possibly a disk drive or fan hardware problem, or some other hardware confusion.
Something other than the usual startup chime can indicate the hardware tests have found an error.
Make sure you have no CD or DVD inserted into the drive.
Remove all external devices — USB hubs, storage, keyboards, or otherwise — and test again.
Can you boot the MacBook using the recovery partition or boot into safe mode?
I'd also try an external keyboard, if you have one available.
I'd normally suggest using target disk mode as a way to try and get a current backup of your disk data, but AFAIK your particular MacBook model lacks both FireWire and Thunderbolt ports, which means that's not (again, AFAIK) an available option here.

Can't login to Server Preferences

Have 10.6.1 Server running as a Open Directory Master. I cannot log in to Server Preferences using either my admin or directory administrator account. I get the message "Unable to authenticate to the Open Directory Master" - "This computer record credentials could not be retrieved from the System keychain."
LDAP/Password server/Kerberos are all listed as running in Server Admin (which is working fine). I also use Open Directory for Kerio Mail Server, and that's working fine.
changeip -checkhostname comes back fine. While I don't have a major need to use Server Preferences, I'm worried that being unable to log in signals a larger problem with Kerberos that I'd like to nip in the bud.

I had a similar problem and was able to fix it. Here was my situation:
I had a ldap master (host foo1) and a ldap slave (host foo2). The slave's server preferences stopped working after it became a slave. I would get the same errors as you did when trying to open server preferences. I did some searches and stumbled across this site: http://www.macgasm.net/2009/11/04/mac-os-x-10-6-1-server-server-preferences-brok e-and-how-to-fix-it/
This only kind of applies to the issue at hand but I was able to take this info and apply it to my problem.
Here is what I did:
I discovered I was missing the password item called com.apple.opendirectory on foo2 (located in the system keychain)
I logged into foo1 and examined the com.apple.opendirectory password item on foo1. I copied all of the info (exported to text) --- including the password. I then logged into foo2 and created a new password item in the system keychain. Making sure to include all of the info from the previous export. The only difference is that I changed the hostname. I then made sure that access control was set to allow all applications.. (this is very important). Server preferences then worked.
An example of what I exported and what I re-created:
name: com.apple.opendirectory
Kind: application password
Account: foo1.yourdomain.com$
Where: Com.apple.opendirectory
Password: some_password
On foo2 I created this password key:
name: com.apple.opendirectory
Kind: application password
Account: foo2.yourdomain.com$
Where: Com.apple.opendirectory
Password: some_password
Notice the host change. This key must be in the system keychain and allow access to all.
Good luck.
