Keyboard change not effective on login screen

Hi,
I just got a new iMac with wired keyboard and set it up using that keyboard (US layout).
Then I installed my wireless keyboard (FRench layout) and changed the keyboard layout in Internationalisation preferences. It changed everywhere (I had to do the manipulation for all users on the system) except on the session open screen.
Is there a setting/preference to tell which keyboard to use on session opening? It seems that the preference setting is for users only. Is there a preference setting for the entire system?
I have admin privileges in my account.
Many thanks in advance for your help.

FYI, reply to my own post.

  • Boot screen resolution does not match the login screen on retina

    Boot screen resolution does not match the login screen on MBP retinas if you've set your resolution to hi-res thus resulting a flickering at login screen appearing instead of that nice login screen animation, due to I believe screen resolution change...
    is there a way to change boot screen resolution (times before login screen)???
    Or do we have to wait for apple to push an EFI update for this problem?
    Thanks in advance

    No one having this issue?
    please some one at least confirm this so I know thats not my setup spesific problem?

    I would like some help from on my object from "Transporting form BOX1 to another BOX1 to production BOX changes not effect" ??
    The issue is regarding transaction SE51 (screen painter). I was changing the Define Length from 45 to 55 upon activating their will be a pop-up information message will appear "Selection screen: Report generation makes screen changes ineffective". After the activation the Define Length in transaction se51 will now be 55.
    However, upon transporting to another Box/system the Define Length will be 45 instead of 55. Can you help me how to solve this problem? What to do to avoid the changes in the Define Length so that it would still be 55 instead of 45?

  • Scratchy noise coming from top end of keyboard. Not effecting performance but very noisy and worrying! What is it? Is my computer seriously damaged? Is it easily fixed? Thanks for any help

    Scratchy noise coming from top end of keyboard. Not effecting performance but very noisy and worrying! What is it? Is my computer seriously damaged? Is it easily fixed? Thanks for any help

    It would be helpful if you were to identify the model of MBP you have. 
    The noise makers on a MBP are the fan(s), the HDD and the optical drive.  Can you locate the exact position where the noise is coming from?

    Thanks in advance

    You have customised the skins/themes folder
    $OBI_HOME/web/app/res/*
    Depending on what webserver you are using you will also need to customise the skins/themes for the web application that is already deployed.
    These are where you can find them:
    OC4J: $OBI_HOME/oc4j_bi/j2ee/home/applications/analytics/analytics/res/*
    WebLogic: $OBI_HOME/web/analytics/res/*
    You will need to restart the presentation services to see the changes.
    If you are manually deploying the application to the web server you will need to make your changes to the original app folder '$OBI_HOME/web/app/res/*' and then follow the below guide to create the web archive to deploy to the presentation server i.e. oc4j or WebLogic.

  • Macbook air built-in keyboard/trackpad only work at login screen

    The built-in keyboard and trackpad have become unresponsive on my 2013 refurbished macbook air. When I restart it, everything works normally at the login screen, but becomes unresponsive again once I've logged in. The computer works fine with external inputs or a shared screen.
    I've recently updated to yosemite. The fact that everything works up until login makes me think this is a software problem. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps listed here, and I've reset PRAM and SMC. Does anyone know what could be causing this?

    Hi,
    I was able to get result from apple store after 24 days not hours days. They said it's my fault and they have found liquid inside of it and when i asked to see pictures of it they asked for COURT ORDER and repair will be cost around 400$.
    I am %100 sure that my macbook air never touched with liquids.
    I was using it for business and not even fluids there isn't any one scratch on it. I have been very careful.
    Did they asked 400$ for you too ?
    I am also using mac mini and iphone 5s. I think i will never buy an apple again.
    And i will definetly go to court.

  • Can not get to Login Screen. Possible User Account or .plist Corruption?

    I was helping a client who is upgrading both her desktop and a laptop machine. She had already started the process and she had used the migration tool to move her user account from her old G4 to both her new Mac Pro and MacBook pro. So basically both new machines were now clones of the old G4 which was running Tiger.
    Everything was going well and we were busy doing some other stuff when I suggested to her that she should set up a secondary user account on each machine. This is something I suggest to users, because I have seen user accounts get corrupted, and if that account is the ONLY account on the machine, you are not going to be able to do anything on that machine (easily). At least with teh other account, you can log in and see the drive, etc.
    So she set up a new user and also enabled fast user switching and I was about to show her how the whole user switching works, but when we choose to log out of her current account, the Mac went to blue screen and just got hung up. After much waiting we had to force a hard shut down. Upon restart we see the Apple logo and then go to the blue screen, but we never reach the login screen.
    I wrote this off as a fluke, but also told her that I am not to comfortable with that and decided to completely wipe the drive and do a fresh install of everything and not use the migration assistant. All is well with that machine now.
    So we moved on to the Mac Book Pro and we repeated the same addition of a user and upon logout it did the exact same thing. So by now I am sure that something in the library form the old G4 must be corrupt, because both of these machines were basically clones of that one. So we are probably going to do the same thing to this one too, but I was wondering if I could learn something from this.
    Assuming that some .plist is corrupted, ( probably the com.apple.loginwindow.plist) I was thinking I could access the drive through target mode, find that. plist and delete it. But then that made me think, if I were to delete it, what would the Mac do at startup if it sees no .plist of the login screen or user accounts?
    Also, is there a way to alter the login options through single user mode. So for example I am quite sure that it is the .plist for the log-in options that is corrupted. So if I could change the login option to automatically log into her account, thus bypassing the login screen, I think we can bypass this issue for now.
    Thanks.

    First you don't delete the suspect .plist, you move or rename it. Deletion is down the road a piece
    Second, when the system boots, it recreates any missing .plist files, presuming nothing else is wrong.
    Many, including myself, have dragged the entire Preferences directory onto the desktop and rebooted without a problem.

  • Keyboard layout problem at the login screen

    Hi there!
    I'm having a huge problem at the login screen just after installing OS X Lion 10.7. It seems like the keyboard layout has changed, and I need to enter some numbers in my password. I can't find the digit 9, and I really don't know if the other numbers are in the right place either. Maybe it's changed to a us layout.. What to do?

    stoneheart,
    the numbers are in the same position on a US English keyboard as they are on a Norwegian keyboard.
    If you select the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences, and select its Login Options, do you have the “Show Input menu in login window” checkbox checked? (That’s where the checkbox’s location is in Mavericks; I don’t have Lion, so I don’t know if it’s in the same location there.)

  • Please help ASAP! I downloaded an app to change the Windows 10 login screen & now the screen flashes

    I downloaded Windows 10 Login Background Changer and now when my laptop starts I can't even get to the login screen. After the Acer screen at startup, it says "Please Wait...." but then the screen just flashes continually. Please help ASAP! Thank you!

    I did the exact same thing and had a very similar issue (flashing lock screen and couldn't get past the lock screen). I tried a system restore, resetting my PC, doing a clean install of Win10, and both methods of booting in SafeMode -- none of these methods worked. Called Microsoft several times; Level 1 tech told me to do a USB installation of Win10 (couldn't get my laptop to restart the way the USB installation needed); Level 2 tech told me to do a USB installation of Win8.1 (again did not work because my laptop could not restart properly). Gave up with tech support. The only way i was able to fix this problem was by choosing the "restore PC to factory settings" option. All your files and programs will be lost, but all of mine were already lost anyway after I tried doing a clean install of Win10. My laptop (S7-392) restored to Win8; I updated all my drivers and then made a recovery drive; did a USB installation of Win8.1, updated drivers and made another recovery drive. I have since done a USB installation of Win10 and upgraded my drivers. IF the same issue happens again i'll just end up reverting back to Win8.1 for a while.

  • Screen sharing is not working at login screen

    Hi:
    I need a little help.  I have a headless Mac (System A) that I just upgraded to Mountain Lion (not Mountain Lion Server) from Snow Leopard Server.
    From another Mac (System B) running Mountain Lion I was previously able to use Screen Sharing to remotely acess System A's login screen.  Now, after upgrading from SL Server to ML I can only use Screen Sharing to remotely control System A from System B AFTER I have already logged into System A using a direct attached keyboard and screen.  In other words, I lost the ability to access the login screen on Sys A.
    Anyone have any ideas here???

    I was having the same issue. In my case, I had copied /System/Library/CoreServices/Screen Sharing.app to the /Applications folder, some time ago. I did this so I could more easily launch Screen Sharing via Spotlight.  Because of this, when I launched Screen Sharing, I was executing the 'old' Screen Sharing app. I re-copied the 'new' app to /Applications, and all is well! Hope this helps!

  • FileVault enabled accounts not shown on login screen

    Hi everybody,
    with some of our iMacs (all 14 of them are set up the same way) we have the following problem: When a new mobile network account is created (1st: create a network account on the OS X Server in its Open Directory database, then network user folder synced to local user folder on iMac) and this particular account is enabled to handle FileVault encryption of the local hard drive in „System Preferences“ -> „Security & Privacy“ -> „FileVault“ and even the output of
         sudo fdesetup list
    lists this special account, the user is not shown at the very first login screen (light gray). I deleted the local user and re-synced, I removed the account from the list of FileVault users and re-enabled the account - all to no avail.
    Now I disable FileVault completely and will re-enable it later. That lasts hours…
    Is there any more convenient way to fix this? May the „sync“ command of fdesetup be an option?
    Hope, someone knows the answer or may even give me a hint.
    Best regards from Hamburg

    I've looked at my system logs, and the difference between logging in connected to a wired and wireless network.
    I seem to have an issue with keys on the wireless network.

    Since the key piece of information, well in English anyway, seems to be "User interaction not allowed." Any ideas how to resolve this?
    I've opened Keychain Access, there does not appear to be anything bad about the entry for my wireless network. As a test, I changed "access control" to be unrestricted, but still no luck.
    I then deleted the entry the entry in Keyword Access, and still see the same behavior.

  • Install failed due to loss of power and Yosemite will now not go past login screen. Help!

    I recently tried to install OS X Yosemite.  unfortunately during the install my laptop was unplugged and the installation failed mid way through.  Each time I start my mac I get to login screen and after logging in get an error message and told to restart and try again - which does not resolve the issue.  Guest login do work to the safari screen.  Any help hugely appreciated.

    Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

    I don't think that what you did was wrong; there was an issue with the MBP and with all that open, the issue manifested itself.
