Still: Login screen not accepting any input

My login screen not accepting any input.
It appears the screen is not the front most one.
I have to move the main screen to see it and it
never becomes selected to allow input.
I trashed two plist files:
com.apple.storeagent.plist
com.apple.appstore.plist
Ran the combo updater.
The login screen still will not accept any input.
Thanks ... Ken

Hi Stephen et.al.
If you have an account with Twitter, Follow, then post a tweet to @haxiesbeta (Unsanity's Twitter page) or email them at [email protected] The more user input they get about this issue, the faster we see a fix. As with others, adding FM to exclude list in Application Enhancer does not remedy the problem.
One problem I encountered: when I attempted to disable FM via System Preferences>Application Enhancer, a prompt informed me I did not have sufficient access privileges" to enable or disable FM - same for Labels and Window Shade. Hence, I had to manually move FM to the disabled folder via the Finder, then, log-out/in to get the App Store log-in to cooperate. Anyone else encounter this problem?

Locked out of machine after coming out of sleep mode (passwd not accepted)

info macbook (intel) 10.5.1 (was upgraded from Tiger)
single user setup
after waking up machine or coming out of sleep mode (i.e lifting lid) occasionally cannot login at all, password is refused. Multiple failed attempts. Its not a problem of caps lock on.
Only solution is to force power down of machine and then OS comes back up, HOWEVER, without demanding a password after power up (hardly very secure), afterwards it may work OK for a few days (with a number of sleep cycles) before same login problem happens again.
Is this a known problem?

Please do both of the following:
1) Turn the computer off. Press and hold shift. Turn the computer on. Continue to hold shift until you see the spinning gear below the Apple logo. Once it is started up, log in. Does it do the same thing here? If it works, please know this is not a fix, just an isolation step.
2) Test this in another user account on the computer. If you don't have one, create one in: Apple menu> System Preferences> Accounts. Click the lock in the lower left corner if it is locked and enter your password. Click the + just above the lock and type in "test" for all the fields it asks for. If you are on 10.4 or earlier, check off "Allow user to administer this computer". If you are on Leopard, make the account type an Administrator. Click "Create account". Click the Apple menu and select the last item ("Log Out" Account name). Log in as the test account and test. Note: You will have to set it to ask you for a password when waking from sleep (Apple> System Prefernces> Security> Require password to wake this computer from sleep or screen saver)
Let me know the result of those tests. Please make sure to try both, as they will allow me to see what may be causing the issue.

Login password not accepted/user accounts not listed

I woke my laptop from sleep today and it didnt accept my password. I tried several times and it just wouldnt work anymore.
I restarted the computer and my account wasnt even in the list as an option to login to. So I logged into root and I was able to see all my folders and files intact under my user folder.
I thought I should just reinstall the system software, so after doing that, NO USERS were available to login to. I had to reset my root password by starting up via the Tiger installation disc.
Now I am able to see all my folders again, but I just cant login! I opened the Accounts preference pane and the only account listed is root. I am afraid to add my old account, as it may re-write over the existing one.
Can soneone PLEASE explain what the **** happened? And how can I fix such a mess? This is seriously screwed up here.

I'm seeing a lot of posts like this one - it seems "Tiger" is much more prone to corruption of the "NetInfo" database (where entries for user accounts among other things are stored) than "Panther" ever was, although I can't imagine why that would be...
You didn't mention what type of reinstallation you performed but if the option to preserve user and network settings was selected, then it is likely that the "NetInfo" database is still corrupt (if that was the original problem). If that is the case, then recreating the account might not be the best idea at this time. Under normal circumstances however, when recreating an account with the same shortname as a previously deleted account for which a user folder still exists, the user will be presented with the option to use the existing folder so there should be no data loss. However, it is generally considered prudent to back up data if its loss is a concern.
The output of this command, entered using "/Applications" > "Utilities" > "Terminal.app" might be informative if there is something grossly wrong with the user records in the "NetInfo" database:<pre>nidump passwd /</pre>Note that the output consists of user records (one per line), each consisting of several colon (:) delimited fields. If the second field for any user consists of anything other than "*" or "******", don't post those seemingly random characters because they could potentially be used to determine the password for that account - just substitute "x"s or something instead. I mention this because a 1.25 GHz PowerBook (as listed in your profile) may have shipped with Jaguar, which used the older, less secure method for storing passwords which might still be in use by some accounts if the computer was upgraded.
Otherwise, you may want to skip all that and just go ahead and reset the "NetInfo" database to defaults (wiping out user records, etc. but not user data), though it will be 10.4 defaults, not 10.2 defaults...

Why are my YouTube login credentials not accepted by Captivate?

I am trying to publish my Captivate project as a video on YouTube.
A popup screen appears asking for my YouTube username and password, but when entered I am told that "Login failed. Specify the correct username and password, and try again."
The same login works fine when used directly on YouTube.
Any suggestions on what could be the problem?

Hi,
It seems that the group policy setup in your organization has set this option disabled for all users. You may want to check with your IT team for this.
You may also try right-click on Captivate > Properties > Compatibility > and then check the option "Run this program as an Administrator".

HT204053 After uppgrading to the latest OS the iCloud login does not accept the password. I have changed password but it still does not work

I can log in to my apple account but not to the ICloud apps even though I am using the same Apple ID.

Do you mean names and passwords in the Password Manager or do you mean that you are no longer logged on to (remembered by) websites after closing and restarting Firefox?
There is a difference between remembering the name and password in the Password Manager and a "remember me" check box on a web page to log you in automatically. 
The latter usually involves the creation of a special "remember me" cookie that is stored on your computer and that is send to the server. 
If that "remember me" cookie is removed or gets corrupted or is not send to the server then the server won't remember you anymore and you need to sign in once again.
*Create a cookie 'allow' exception to keep such cookies, especially for secure websites and when cookies expire when Firefox is closed.

Mozilla Login will not accept my ID and Password

I have attempted several times to log into my account under another name and e-mail address. Even after resetting the password there are messages about there is already an account with that name and e-mail address or type in the correct name an password using appropriate case. I have questions concerning files for exempted sites--I've exempted certain sites (allow or block) but they don't show up in the list. Can't ask those questions without an account but your system continues to block my access.

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

For about 2 weeks I have been unable to leave feedback on ebay. Firefox brings up login page but will not accept password. I am having the same problem with my yahoo email. It will not accept my passwords, so I have to use IE to login to these accounts.

On yahoo email, it accepted my login id, but not password. This started on one account about two weeks ago. Today when I tried to login to another yahoo email, which worked yesterday, but it would not accept my password on this account.
I bought some items on ebay and wanted to leave feedback. When I clicked on the leave feedback button a sign in window appeared, this should not have happened, when I tried to sign in, it would not accept my password. I called ebay and was told they have had many complaints from customers using firefox when trying to leave feedback. The help desk suggested I try with Internet Explorer, I did, and it worked perfectly.
I have been using firefox for a long time and really do not want to go back to IE, but when I cannot sign into my accounts, I can't, so I will have to use IE.
As far as I know, no new programs have been installed on this computer.

HT204053 When I am purchasing from the app store for free apps my card is not being accepted. It's the same account I keep putting in the 3 digit security code. It still is not accepting it therefore cannot update my games.

Please can someone help me. I have been using my present account card for almost 2 years. Recently when purchasing free apps from store, I put in my password, then it takes me to my account to enter the security code for my card I do this and I have even re-entered the new card and it's still not accepting it.
Hence I cannot update or buy until I do this. The same thing happened with my daughters account and had to use her dads card.

Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum. Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is. Apple is not here. It's users, like you.
If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.

Changed my AppleID and password - now can't log-in to iCloud with my deleted account. It does not accept my passwords - old or new. I cannot delete my old iCloud on phone

iPhone 5S on iOS7 -
I changed my AppleID and password online.
My iPhone keeps prompting me to log-in to iCloud with my deleted account. It does not accept my passwords - old or new. I cannot delete my old iCloud account because it requires that I enter

Cannot log in to Windows; will not accept password

Shutdown my Windows 8.1 tablet last night normally with no unusual issues. Will not accept the password this am. Have checked to see that correct pword was entered.

I am having the same problem. Have a Satellite C55-B5240 running Windows 8.1 that is only 2 weeks old. Shut down last night and this morning cannot get past the log in screen. Checked and rechecked the caps, the password, even went on to another computer and changed the password 6 times. I can get on with any of the other pc's but not the new one. On-line-chatted with Microsoft and spoke to 3 different techs. They all said the same things...it was beyond their expertise and I should contact Toshiba, get the Windows 8.1 key from them, and reload 8.1!! Very funny. I can't even get online let alone download anything. They were no help whatsoever! Spent 2 1/2 hours on chat with them. I don't know what to do other than call Toshiba on Monday.

HFS File system with case sensitive is not accepted to install creative cloud? Is there any other way but install the whole MacOS again after formatting the drive. I cannot belief that Adobe is so bad to it's Mac customers..

After many hours setting up OS10.10 from he scratch the last step should be installing m Adobe apps again.
trying this I always get the error message that creative cloud does not accept case sensitive file systems and I shall use another drive.
This means I have to set up the whole machine again after formatting without case sensitive but then having copy problems with my NAS?
I cannot belief that Adobe is really demanding this. If so this would show how urgent this market need alternatives and some more competition...

Hi,
You can refer below link for more information.

Cookies are not saved (login info, cookie acceptance, bank cookies etc)

Cookies are not being saved. examples: if I log into the telegraph site the login does not persist, if I accept the cookies from The Register I get asked again, If I set my location on the BBC news site it resets, the same with my bank website.
I have tried:
disabling all add-ons
resetting firefox
uninstalling and reinstalling firefox (no add-ons at all)
deleting my user config files
deleting anything to do with firefox and reinstalling
unsyncing firefox
I'm tearing my hair out now lol. It's making it impossible to use firefox (especialy with banks that set a cookie to recognise the pc etc)
Any ideas what could be wrong or what else to try to locate the problem?

In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
*do not clear the Cookies
*do not clear the Site Preferences
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Clear+Recent+History
Note that clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, passwords, and other website specific data.
Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies with an allow exception that you would like to keep.
It is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted if clearing cookies doesn't work.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookies files like cookies.sqlite-journal in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.
