Managing conversations with user on different accounts in Messages

I'm having trouble understanding how conversations work across different accounts in Messages. For example, my friend and I sent messages to each other via my Gtalk account earlier today, then a little while later I clicked on her name in the left nav of the Messages window and the earlier conversation was gone. It was only showing our last iMessage conversation via our iPhones. I went back to the Buddies window and double-clicked her name, but it still didn't bring up the earlier conversation. BTW, I didn't close the Messages window from our earlier Gtalk chat.
Would someone explain how conversations with the same person on different accounts works within Messages? I assumed it'd retain all conversations between that user's accounts within the same window.

Hi,
Once you have a person in the "To" spot it should be linked to the Service (ID or Name) that you are talking to them on.
At the right hand of their Name is a small reveal arrow which makes it a drop down to Show other options (AIM, Jabber or Yahoo as well as iMessages)
It will depend on what is stored on their Address Card.
Example pic
It thinks my landline is a possible for iMessages
I have Messages open with 4 AIM valid Accounts logged in
From three of these I can call the one on this Address card (it's well known name that have been out there for a while)
Whilst you have to use the drop down and the Chat/Conversation can swap between the services the "History" should all be shown.
Example iMessage then AIM Chat
You Buddy can change their end and send you an iMessage and a New Chat should open up.
I.e. the Highlighted chat on the left is the one shown on the right and the "hi" opened the second item in the Chat list.
I am not sure why you appear to not keeping the "first" chat open or seeing a second in the list.
Having said I am having both ends of the conversation and your Buddy may be able to silently change the Service.
However you should still have the "History".
To See older Messages (or Chats) you have to be saving them.
At the moment I am not sure this is relevant though.

Use port 50013 (Management Console) with User/password

Hello,
I have a problem. We had a security auditory of SAP systems. They have seen that the port 50013 (Management Console) has not any security with user /password.
Is there a way to put a security before the information?
Best Regards.
Pablo Mortera.

Hi Pablo
The SAP Managment Console is a UI (Applet) to access the functionality of the sapstartsrv process, This process is used for montioring and administration of SAP instances and listens on port 5nn13 (or 5nn14 for https)
It is expected that you can access the UI without authentication but to carry out administrative functions (which are sapstartsrv webservice method calls) , such as shutting down an instance for example, authentication is required.
By default only the most critical of these web service methods require authentication but the list of protected webmethods can be modified. Please see note 927637 for more details

AD Resource forest access with user from different forest

I am trying to access a AD resource forest using a user from a different forest.
The "different forest" is the main forest used to contain all user accounts etc. This domain is trusted by the resource forest (which contains things like outlook distribution lists etc) and so I am able to log into the resource forest (using ldp.exe or the mmc ad snap-ins) with my credentials from the main forest.
How can I replicate this in java?
I can connect directly to the user forest with simple authentication. But I can't do the same with the resource forest (as the user does not exist on it - it is merely trusted). Is there an authentication method that will allow me to do this?
In this organisation user accounts for the resource forest are not given out - you have to use one from the main user forest. So I have to find a work-around where I can connect with my current credentials.
Any ideas anyone?

Devid,
I am facing the same problem.
Did you get the solutions.
I am getting exception while calling "InitialDirContext"

GPO Loopback Processing with Users taken into account

Hello,
I am attempting to configure loopback processing for a team and am wanting a bit of advice.
I want a script to be ran for the users on this team, which are in a separate OU than regular users. However, because of the settings required, I want it to only apply to certain computers as well, in a separate OU themselves.
Now I read that loopback processing is what I want to do, however the videos I've looked up don't explain how to do this really well.
All I want it to do is run a script taking into account the computers and users. Say if a regular user logged into those computers, the script wouldn't run for them. But if this team logged in, the script would run for them.
Can anyone explain how to do this appropriately with loopback processing?
Thank you.

Hi,
>>Can anyone explain how to do this appropriately with loopback processing?
Based on your description, the following steps can be referred to as reference:
Enable Loopback
Merge mode in a GPO which is linked to the computer OU
In a GPO linked to the computer OU, configure logon script settings
In the GPO which is mentioned in step 2, use Security Filtering to deny the OU where
standard user resides Read and Apply access permissions to the GPO
Regarding Loopback Processing, the following articles can be referred to for more information.

Company issued iPhone locked with user's personal account

I work in an IT department and we have had a couple users leave in the past couple weeks and turn in their phones. I have been asked to reassign some of the hardware.
This didn't used to be a problem as I could just wipe the phone and reassign it, but two of the newer phones have been upgraded to iOS 7 and locked with ex-employee's personal accounts.
Is there a way to wipe the phone completely? Is it something I could take to an apple store? Any advice would be appreciated.

Using two different accounts in Messages

Sorry if this has already been asked and answered, but I'm not finding applicable solutions in my searches.
My husband has his apple ID set up on messages on our macbook pro. Is there a way for me to sign him out, sign in with my apple ID, AND see my messages? When I signed him out and signed in with my apple id, it still showed his messages.
Thanks in advance.

The best way is to set up each of your sons with his own account in Windows so that each iTunes library is completely separate. Then just set up separate accounts for each of them in the iTunes Store. Presuming you don't want to give them unlimited spending power, you can set up allowance accounts if you want to give them a set amount to spend each month, or you can buy then iTunes prepaid cards or give them gift certificates.

Fresh install: can't login with user to tty anymore, root works ok.

Hi!
I'm new to Arch. I decided to try it so I installed the i686 core image in Virtualbox 4.0.12
under Ubuntu 11.04, with no issues, following both the official install guide and the beginners' guide.
After performing the complete upgrade step, I created a first user (david) with
the default configuration as shown in the guide, and added it to the wheel group.
As can be seen in the file /var/log/auth.log (http://pastebin.com/bkTLuJrz),
I logged in to the new user account shortly after its creation (13:19:33). This worked fine.
After logging off about two minutes later, and trying to log in once more, I found I was no
longer able to gain access. Every next try ended in an automatic logoff 2 or 3 seconds
after inserting the correct password, as can be seen starting from 13:29:41.
No message appeared in auth.log or on screen, and I have been unable to find any sort
of printed hints with a reason in other log files.
I have had no problems logging in as root, besides what seems a possibly similar situation
as seen at 13:30:36 (I don't remember, it could have been a quit test followed by a quick logoff via ctrl-D).
I tried this solution https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=122348
(they suggest the disk may be full), but that's not my case. Here is the result of "df -h":
http://pastebin.com/dKHnW91R
I then tried alternatively adding these lines (only one per try) at the end of
the /etc/security/access.conf file.
+ : david : tty2
+ : (wheel) : LOCAL
I tried logging in to tty2 with the first one, naturally. No success in either case.
Then, I created a new user with the same default options as the first one, but I could never log in,
I was again being thrown out just after inserting the password.
I also tried changing the user passwords, and deleting the .bash* files in /home/david.
Putting a short message to show at login using echo in the last line of /home/david/.bashrc
(the default one created by Arch) succeeded in showing it just before the log off.
Entering to fallback mode made no difference, and trying to log in with only one (different)
account at a time doesn't change anything either. Same trying other tty terminals.
Just to be very clear, I haven't installed X nor sound support.
And just in case (although I suspect it's totally irrelevant for this issue), on boot I'm getting a
message saying my network settings are deprecated, and that I have to check rc.conf.
I don't know what else I could try. Any hints?
EDIT: I ran grep -E " 13:[12][0-9]" /var/log/* to see the lines of the logs, in the range of time
when things got weird, in case I could find any hint of time-correlated stuff:
http://pastebin.com/fTakKwrY
I installed bash-completion. I tried removing it, but the problem persists.
pacman -Qdt throws:
linux--atm 2.5.1-2
sqlite3 3.7.7.1-1

Welcome to Arch; and a thanks for a reasonable first post -- it most definitely shows the initiative of an arch user. As a moderator, good job.
Let's look at some of the basic stuff...
Could you post the output of mount ??
As root, what happens if you try ls -la /home/david
As root, what happens if you try su david
If that works, what happens if you then try cd followed by ls -la ??
Thanks a lot!
su david didn't work, I was sent back to root as if I had only typed the enter key.
However, when I wanted to do the same in an Ubuntu console in order to check something
for a comparison, I discovered something fascinating:
I can no longer log in using *any* console, using gnome-terminal or any tty in Ubuntu!
So I think I'll be back when I get this sorted in the first place, but I will be checking here
just in case someone has some cross-distribution general advice on this issue.

Can no longer logon to EM DBA-Studio 8.1.7. with user SYSTEM

Hello
my 8.1.7 Enterprise Edition Database shows some "strange bahavior". I can no longer logon to Enterprise Manager Console with user system. (Message: This Application needs more privileges...) But the user system still has the same system privileges as before when it worked fine. So what could have gone wrong?
The logon with user sys as sysdba still works.
I can still logon with any user in SQL Worksheet and SQL Plus for instance.
I have checked for any data loss......but all data still seems to be available. I checked for it with desc and select commands.
BUT.....I can no longer post a "select * from cat"
(Message: Table or view does not exist !)
The database is in archivelog mode in case a recovery is necessary.
Before the "crash" a normal user schema dump was exported without any problem. But that shouldn't have triggered off the problem!?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you very much for any hint.
Stefan
PS: My user SYSTEM already has the DBA and the SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE but still is no longer able to logon in DBA-Studio!
I assume it is a more serious problem since none of my users can still perform a "select * from cat" which should always be possible!

Stopping the jrew process is what i do anyway, but that doesn't seem to be e very elegant way of working with DBA Studio. What is the reason for this behavior?
Thanks to anyone who can give me a clue

G/L Account currency is not consistent with G/L Interim Account currency

Hello
A few days ago I was printing checks and suddenly an error occurs
it says something like..."Another user is accessing the same account"
In the reserch I found help in SAP Portal, where I showed how to unlock this part
This I did in Administration->Set up-> Banking-> House Bank accounts
At the end is a column that says BLOCK PRINTING, always locked, but when the error occurs is enabled for the account that has been affected, and a super user must unlock by unchecking the check box.
The problem is that the update that part I get an error message and I have not been able to unlock
The error is
G/L Account currency is not consistent with G/L Interim Account currency [Message 60701-9]
In this regard I have not found anything to help me resolve this error and the printing of checks is blocked
I need your help
Regards.

Find my friends app works differently now with iOS 8. I delete messages and am constantly being asked to share location....no "always share" option....

In previous iOS I shared my location with "my friends" one time, permanently in the Find My Friends app. Now, I am being asked to share over and over--I delete messages in iMessage all the time. I want to share my location with my friends one time, permanently. Is this possible?

I seem to have a similar problem. I share my location with User-A via Find My Friends. I have a conversation with User-A via Messages. I delete the conversation with User-A in Messages. Suddenly, User-A no longer has permission to follow me via Find My Friends.
I prefer to keep my message history in Messages clean, but do not want to revoke other users' permissions to follow me in Find My Friends each time I delete Messages conversations.
Is this a bug or intended? Either way, is there a workaround or solution, other than having A) having to keep all message history or B) constantly remember to grant users permission to follow me in Find My Friends over and over again?

IPhone sim swap between different accounts

Is it possible to do the sim swap upgrade across 2 different AT&T accounts? For example, taking the sim card from my personal iPhone 5S and putting into a work-provided iPhone 6? Both are under contract. I use my personal line for business while the work phone collects dust in a drawer. Obviously, I would rather use the iPhone 6.
I know this works with the iPhones in my AT&T Family Share plan, but could not find any indication this would work with iPhones on different accounts.

I'm by no means an expert, but my understanding is that your account info (phone number at least, which is linked to account info externally) is on the SIM card. Therefore the account changes with the SIM card, from phone to phone.
Others more knowledgable may correct me...

Welcome to the Apple community.
iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

After replacing a failed hard drive with new one I inadvertently created a different account name(home/user) than the one in the Time Machine backup. Now I cannot restore the photos in iPhoto. What are my options?

The best thing to do would be to start over. Use Setup Assistant this time.
Boot into Recovery, launch Disk Utility, and erase the startup volume. This operation will destroy all data on the volume. Quit Disk Utility and install OS X. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.
When you reboot, you'll be prompted to go through the initial setup process. That’s when you transfer the data from one of your backups. For a walkthrough, see here:
Using Setup Assistant
Don't transfer the Guest account, if it was enabled on the old system.
Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
