Login Noise on Mac?

I am using a Mac OS 10.4.7 and a Windows XP, when you login on Windows, you have a login noise that plays everytime you do that. Is it possible to do this on Mac?

Set a sound file to open with QuickTime Player. Set QuickTime Player's "General" preference to play when opened. Put the sound file in the Login Items list in "Accounts" System Preference.

If you do not lock that folder immediately after deleting all the contents, it will simply populate again (Resume - a "feature" in Lion). You do that by doing a Get Info (highlight folder and press Command + I keys), unlock the lock at the bottom, enter your admin password, then check the box to lock the folder. lock the lock and you're done.
Yes, that is correct. The alternative is to quit all applications prior to logging out. Lion will then have a chance to remove the saved states.

And, for the OP:
It has also been a regular feature of Mac OS to automatically open any window that was open at shutdown. To avoit that behavior, simply close any Finder windows and properly quit applications by closing their window and using Command + Q (or File >Quit).
This was true only for the Finder. Prior to Lion, no other apps would launch unless they were included in the Login Items for the account. And the OS would not restore windows for other apps.
A very small number of apps (TextWrangler is an example) implemented this capability prior to Lion. They could restore previously opened windows. But that is an application feature, and can be controlled by the application's preferences. Lion implements it at the system level, and users have virtually no control on a per application basis.

How to allow multiple users login to a MAC PRO without interruption?

I have a mac pro, which runs Yosemite, (2013 module) to be used as a server. However, I have difficult to let multiple users to use the mac simultaneously.
Objective:
    One person uses the mac directly on his desktop, while the others to login remotely though VNC from PC (win 7/Linux).
    The users have their own workspace, and they will not interrupt each other.
What I tried:
    I created two mange accounts on the MAC.
    Account 1 was used to directly login on the mac desktop.
    Account 2 was used to login to the mac from a PC though VNC. (I also tried this from a Centos workstation with the Tiger VNC viewer)
Problem:
When account 2 is login, the location monitor will automatically change to that account as well. Both accounts shared exactly the same screen, mouse & keyboard actions. It is impossible to let multiple users to use the MAC pro simultaneously without interruptions.
If I use "hdiutil attach" to mount a dmg file though SSH with account 2, the folder will automatically show in the local desktop login with account 1.
Question:
I read something about the "Per-user screen sharing". It says, "You can remotely log into a Mac with any user account on that computer and control it, without interrupting someone else who might be using the computer under a different login." Is it possible to do this from a PC or Linux client?
If the problem is simply due to the poor functionality of the build-in VNC service in Yosemite, I appreciate your help to suggest some other decent VNC server for Yosemite. I know the Vine Server (OSXvnc), but I failed to install it on the mac because it is incompatible with the Yosemite.
Does the SSH is supposed to work in this way in OSX? I mean the local account can see the folder mounted by another account though SSH.
If any specific version of Yosemite is required to allow multiple users to access a mac simultaneously? Just as the win 7 professional allow only one user to login in at each time. But with the remote desktop server of windows, multiple users are able to use the same computer at the same time without any problem.
If you familiar with any of the above questions, please help. Any comments and suggestions are appreciated.
I know the best way to get the solution is to direct call the apple support. However, it is really not easy to call them. Because it always results with long waiting time and then the people pick up the phone will transfer my call to an expert who will make me to describe the problem again.
Since I'm not interested in the technique details of all the problems, it is also grateful if you would provide a direct instruction to let me setup the computer for the purpose.
Thanks you very much for your kindly help.

I cannot help with the screen sharing, although I have just tried it with a RealVNC client on an iPad and it seemed to work OK.
However on the disk showing on all users desk tops have you unchecked the "ignore ownership on this volume" check box? You can check the drives permissions with CMD i command.

How can I login to the Mac App Store?

My wife cannot login to the Mac App Store on her MacBook Pro. This first happened under Snow Leopard and is now happening under Lion. I have googled extensively for a solution, but not yet found one that lasts long term. We have binned a Networkinterfaces.plist a few times and this has given us temporary access to the App Store, but now it's lost it again and we can't even find the plist to bin it!
The error message we get when trying to login to the Mac App Store is, "your device or computer could not be verified".
Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks for that suggestion. I'll remember it for next time. We seem to have got temporary reprieve, which we think might be due to resolving a conflict between iCal and MobileMe.

A particular network user can't login to a mac in a classrom but other network users can. Then the network user can login to other identical macs in same classroom. Anyone seen this before? It has happen twice. Two different teachers in two different classrooms entering the correct user name and passwords and computer won't allow them to login. Then they try in different computers in same classroom and have no problem login.

Yes. I can login with a test user. And any other network user can login as well to this particular mac. Actually the mac has bootcamp and boots into either mac or windows. The same user entering the same login username and password can login into the windows side, but not the mac side.
I had this same issue last semester in another classroom, another mac and a different teacher. This summer I reformatted and imaged that mac and I asked that teacher to login today to that reimagened mac and she had no problem today doing so.

Why cant I login to my Mac Pro?

Hi,
when I try to login to my Mac Pro from wakeup screensaver (it asks for the password), it no longer accepts my password.
When I erase the username on that screen and try to type it in, it does not echo the characters on the screen either.
It just "writes invisibly" moving along the cursor but the username doesnt show.
When typing the password the little round dots do show but it doesnt accept it.
Any ideas what that could be?
Id like to avoid a hard reset...
thanks
the Wumpus

You can delete the Keychain: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/9078.html
If you need to reset your login password (you may need to do this before you can delete your login Keychain): http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274

Hi, I may suggest to activate the root account and try the uninstall process from that account. To do so, you have to:
Go to System Preferences a open up the Users pane;
On the left side of the pane, you shuold see Login Options;
Enabled editing option clicking on the lock (it will ask your password);
Once the pane is enabled, you should see something like Server Account Network (sorry my OS is in italian, so I don't exactly know the right translation), and right next to it a button;
Click on that button, and a new pane shows up. Click on Open Directory Utility, and on the upper bar of OS X click on Edit;
Select Enable Root Account (you can set a password, or not);
Done that, you should log out and when the login window show up, type on the user field "root" and the password you choose;
Theorically, from this account you will be able to unistall the application.
After completing your task, I reccomend you to disable the root account, just by loggin in your personal account and repeating the steps I described before. Hope it helps

Have you considered posting your question on a Windows forum, asking on a general iMac forum where most users use OS X probably may not yield the results you are looking for.

Login QQ for Mac fail.

Hi All,
I was trying to login QQ for Mac on my machine, but cannot. A message saying "Login time" was shown.
As QQ is most popular instant chat tool in China, I really need QQ...
Are there any solutions?
Thanks so much...

Dear Friend,
Thanks. Yep, the lastest version of QQ program requires 10.6 or later...but older versions do not.
One of my friend is using 10.4.11 system, while he is able to login with an qq for mac 1.0 beta (606) version.
I downloaded the same version, and successfully installed it, same problem occurs, saying "login timeout"...
I thinks there is something wrong with my mac, as I cant sign in Windows Messenger, either. A message promoted saying "Sign in to Window Messenger failed because the service is not available or you might not connect to the internet."
However, it is fine with Skype...
So wierd....

Login to a Mac thru a server

I want to login to my Mac thru my home server is there software to do this?

Depending on what OS your server is running will depend on the software you use. But just about any VNC software will let you bring up your Mac's Desktop from another computer.

Login noise issue.

whem i turn on my imac g5 isight it makes this annoying 'bong' sound! is there any way to turn it off or just turn it down? its abit load! Almost as annoying as buying an imac G5 isight at the end of december only to find a new imac with intel processor released the following month with twice the power for only £30 more! I'm not bitter though! much...

If you download and install this program, it'll fix the problem. It takes about 2 minutes to do and you'll never have to worry about the loud login noise again (unless of course, you decide that you miss it and turn it on again)

HT201240 i forgot my login password for mac

I NEED TO FIND MY LOGIN PASSWORD FOR MAC CAN YOU HELP ME?

You don't have Mac OS X 10.3 or earlier if any portion of the Mac is labelled MacBook.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274 explains how to fix the password. You'll need either the original discs from AppleCare if you lost them, or a newer retail installer disc. August 28, 2009 Mac OS X 10.6 was released, and March 29, 2010 Mac OS X 10.6.3 retail was released. So depending on the age of the MacBook you'll need one or the other retail if not the original installer discs.
