IMessage not letting me login with one account, another one okay

Hi all,
I installed Mavericks yesterday and the user account I created with the fresh install has had issues with iMessage working since. I created another user account and in that account iMessage works just fine. I'd switch over and just use that accout but in setting up my programming environment I had a bunch of issues that I didn't when setting it up in my primary account and so I feel like the iMessage issue is less complicated than an issue with figuring out user permissions when installing a bunch of programming packages. I sure hope so anyway.
I tried a bunch of things like resetting keychain and logging out of iCloud and dumping all associated plist files and none of it works. Now when I try and log into iMessage the loading icon just spins and spins and spins. If I put in the wrong password it gives me an error that the username or password are wrong, so there's no issue with connecting to the server. If I use my wife's appleid it logs in fine and continues with the setup process. It seems like something is wrong as the OS level with my permissions or my appleid account. I just tried resetting my appleid password and that didin't do anything. Attaching an image of the screen I get stuck at.
Any help is much appreciated!

Hi,
In the Finder use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
Select the Library that appears in the list.
Navigate to Preferences.
In here find the file called com.apple.ids.service.com.apple.madrid.plist
Drag it to the Trash.
Then in Applications/Utilities open the Keychain Access
Removes the IDS: apple ID -Auth Tokens that don't apply to the Apple ID you are using.
Then visit the Apple ID web site and Sign in via th Manage option.
This should take you direct to the Apple ID and its associated emails.
Does it say that they are Verified ?
Once the Apple ID is verified then restart the App.
If that is not the answer then link that Apple ID with iCloud.

Not able to login with domain account on Win10 Enterprise build 10049

On my Windows 10 Enterprise technical preview machine (build 10049), it locked out after inactivity and now only offers the option to login with "Other user". On this screen, it only seems to want a Microsoft account, although if I enter a valid
Microsoft account it says the password is wrong. It won't accept a domain account, and it does not seem to offer any way to switch to the normal domain login screen.
I am locked out of the PC and unable to use it. When I reboot, it goes back to the same login screen.
Help!

Hi,
Is the system joined to a domain? If a machine is joined to a domain, then after restart, the domain name should be displayed under "Other User" even though it doesn't display other user accounts. See snapshot below:
And for domain account, please make sure to type the format as domain\username
While if you have other local user account, then I recommend you login to that user acocunt (format as .\localusername) check the system info and check the policy below:
Local Security Policy\Local Policies\Security policies\Interactive logon: Do not display the last user name, it should be "Not configured" or "Disabled".

Why does forum SOMETIMES not let me login with my Adobe ID?

I have been having a db sign-in problem here.
I set up my account here 7 years ago. If I use my Adobe ID (not my e-mail address) to log in, then all is fine.
But sometimes the forum kicks me over to a sign-in page that requires me to use my e-mail address. It's the same account and same password, but then the forum system asks me for a screenname - which (as you can see) I already have. And if I tell the system I want this screenname - Igor9 - I get an error response that that name is already in use. (Which it is -- It's in use by me.)
IOW, it seems like Adobe here has some weird db setup and some fields can't associate with some other fields.
Again, I am talking about one adobe forum account. If I sign-in with my Adobe ID, all is good. But if the sign-in page requires me to sign-in with my e-mail account, my screenname is somehow missing.

These are not my actual Adobe ID name and e-mail address; they are equivalents:
Adobe ID: userofadobe
E-mail address: [email protected]
Using - Win7/Firefox 21 or Win7/Opera 12.15
URL - https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=ca&returnurl=http://forums.adobe.com /adobe_login&loc=en
That page says to enter my "Adobe ID (Usually your email address)". If I enter my non-e-mail-address Adobe ID - userofadobe - and my password, I log in fine.
But when I try that URL when using Win7/MSIE 10, I get an error: "We're sorry, we encountered an error processing your request."
Then on that page, when I click on "Sign in", I'm taken here:
https://www.adobe.com/account/sign-in.adobedotcom.html?returnURL=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.adobe.c om%2Fcfusion%2Fentitlement%2Findex.cfm%3Fe%3Dca%26returnurl%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fforums.adobe.co m%2Fadobe_login%26loc%3Den
That sign-in page says to enter my "Adobe ID", but then when I enter my Adobe ID - userofadobe - it get a red-letter reply/error, "Please enter a valid email address."
And when I do that - i.e., I enter [email protected], plus the very-same account password (as above) - the next page requires me to enter a "Screen name".
But then when I enter "Igor9" for my screen name, I get an error: "That screen name is unavailable. Please enter another screen name."
Also, if I use Firefox or Opera to try to login here -
https://www.adobe.com/account/sign-in.adobedotcom.html?returnURL=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.adobe.c om%2Fcfusion%2Fentitlement%2Findex.cfm%3Fe%3Dca%26returnurl%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fforums.adobe.co m%2Fadobe_login%26loc%3Den
- I get the same error as with MSIE - i.e., I must use my e-mail address.

HT1338 Why is iPhoto not letting me update (with the account I bought with)?

I have just had my Hard Disk replaced at the Apple store and have restored from my time machine. The software updater is telling me there is an update available for iPhoto. However when I try to update, it tells me that I must update using the account I purchased the software with. Fair enough, except I am using the same account and it still won't let me. Thank you in advance for your time.

Sign out of the App Store (Store > Sign Out) if you're signed in, then sign in with the correct ID. Is iPhoto listed as one of your purchases?

HT204053 iclou wont let me login with my apple id. it says that my apple id is valid but not an icloud account

icloud wont let me login with my apple id. it says that my apple id is valid but not an icloud account

To use iCloud, you must first set it up with your Apple ID on a device with iOS 5 or a Mac with OS X Lion.
On an iOS 5 device go to Settings>iCloud and sign in using your Apple ID.

How to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with one iTunes account

We recently received iPad 2's for Christmas and was looking for some advice on how to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with One iTunes Account (Apple Id). I have created or attached other e-mail addresses to our apple id but do not know how to use them on the new devices. Our home MacBook Pro uses our main apple id for FaceTime. The iPads have been setup with the main apple id w/o being able to use FaceTime and iMessage.
Please Help...
I appreciate the help and support.

P and V-
If you are trying to connect to someone with a different Apple ID, I think all the devices should work, but one at a time.
The problem is when you try to connect between two with the same Apple ID. Once the calling device tries to make the connection, it finds the second device to be "busy". That is where each needs to use a different E-Mail address when setting it up.
On iOS devices, when you press the Home button to exit an App, the App may still be active in the background, even when the device is sleeping. If FaceTime or iMessage is merely being active that way, it may be enough to "tie up" the E-Mail address.
From the Home screen, double click your Home button. You will see a list of recent Apps along the bottom of the screen. Press and hold on one of them until they start to wiggle. You will then see a red minus sign on each. Pressing the minus sign will remove an App from the list, and stop it from working in the background. (Click the Home button to stop the wiggling, and again to hide the recent Apps.)

My phone has the correct AppleID in the in settings section but asks me to login with one that isn't mine. I deleted the ID from my itunes but it still won't let me login with mine. How do I get my iPhone on the same page?

My iphone4 has the correct Apple ID in the information settings section and asks me to login to my ID most of the time but when I try to update my apps, it asks me to login with an ID that isn't mine. I deleted the wrong ID from my itunes but it still won't let me login with my own ID to update apps. How do I get my iphone on the same page?

How did you obtain these apps? All apps are DRM protected & tied forever to the account used to originally obtain them. They cannot be transferred to another Apple ID(account), nor can they be updated using any Apple ID other than the one that was used to originally obtain them.

PC will not let me create an iCloud account.

I have a friend with a mac that wants to share his calendar with me. I have a PC and an apple account. I installed iCloud 3 on my PC but it will not let me create an iCloud account. What can I do to share my friends calendar?

You can't create an iCoud account on a PC. You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher.
If you don't have one of these, your friend can only share his calendar with you as a public calendar, which will give you read-only access, but not as a private calendar with full access. (Note: public calendars aren't viewable by the public at large, it gives you a private url to view the calendar.)

Failure of ACL setting for CIFS share resource on Windows client logined with administrator account

Hi,
We accounter a puzzle of ACL setting for a CIFS share resource. In our application, we use the
administrator account to login a Windows 7 OS which is used as the CIFS client. We can access the share resource by "\\server_ip" on this CIFS client, but we can't add
a new ACE to the ACL of a CIFS share resource provided by a CIFS server.
Why dose this hanppen? Note that the CIFS server maybe a Windows OS or a self-developed CIFS server.
The operation details as followed:
1.Access the share resource by "\\server_ip", login the CIFS server by a valid account on the CIFS server.
2.On the Windows client, select the "Security" panel in the mouse-right-button properties dialog of a cifs share resource.
3.To add a new ACE for someone eg. user0, we input "user0" in the "Select Users ans Groups" dialog popped up.
4.Click OK, but the Windows client will not get the user information for user0 from the CIFS server.
WHY?
5.By wireshare network trace, we find the Windows client didn't send any SAMR requests to the CIFS server.
6.Restart the Windows client OS and login again with another account except administrator, carry out the above operations. We find that the Windows client can get the user information, opposite with the step 4 above.
WHY?
7.By wireshare network trace, we find that the Windows client has sent SAMR requests to the CIFS server to get user informations. But that is different from step 5, WHY?
If the Windows client OS is login with administrator account, is there any configuration on Windows client to decide whether request user information on CIFS server when setting ACL for CIFS share resource?
Expect your help.Thanks.
Best wishes.

HT1688 Messaging does not let me move from one conversation to another without going to the contact info of the person and choosing "send a message", then I can continue the conversation. I'm sure it's a setting I have made by mistake, but can't figure it

Messaging does not let me move from one conversation to another without going to the contact info of the person and choosing "send a message", then I can continue the conversation. I'm sure it's a setting I have made by mistake, but can't figure it out

Hi Elaine
Here si what I do:
Since I tend to message with teh same people I leave the messages available to me. If you are in one conversation with "Karen" and want to message with "Kathy" tap the message back arrow and select Kathy.
As always just be careful to rememeber who you are messaging to!

Not able to Login with PS

hi folks, i am not able to login with PS/PS in the Datamover and app desingner. It gives me the errore that the user name is not valid. My psdbowner table does not have any entry about the owner of my DB even after running the dbowner.sql. i tried to update this table but it gave me the message that no rows updated.

<s>SYSADM is nothing but an Oracle user, when connecting with this user in DataMover, it's bootstrap mode. PS is different, whether it's an Oracle user, it should be locked, PS is also an application user (should exists in PSOPRDEFN). The latter is used when connecting to DMS/AppDesigner.
1. Check the connectivity properties in Configuration Manager: connectid=people, connect password=peop1e
2. Try to connect onto the database with people and check if you can select from tables PSACCESSPRFL, PSOPRDDEFN and PSDBOWNER
3. From within the database, check the owner of the table PSDBOWNER (should be PS which must be locked).
And please, try to give the answers to the questions above (what update statement...). If that's a fresh install, or you've missed some steps, or something went wrong during the initial load (check the logfile).</s>
Due to the lack of information, I was going to the wrong way. Fortunately for Hick, Hakan rightly pointed out the step of the installation. And yes, PS Oracle user account is locked and nothing wrong to have PSDBOWNER empty at this stage, it is filled up when load the very first dms (there's a statement like INSERT INTO PS.PSDBOWNER VALUES...). I think some documentation reading here should not hurt.
Sorry, but I'm really fed up with people providing too few information (or no information at all) about their situation. I give this thread up.
Nicolas.

My apple TV will not let me use my gmail account to log in to Youtube. Is it because it is the same email account I use in my Apple ID?

My apple TV will not let me use my gmail account to log in to Youtube. Is it because it is the same email account I use in my Apple ID?

I'm having the same problem.
Error message reads: This account cannot be used with Apple TV. Please sign in with different account.
I'm using my gmail account to access Youtube as i do on my Mac. I have a completely different Apple ID account.
