Mobile Account users can't log in with Wifi on
All of my mobile account users do not seem to be able to login to their machines unless the wifi is turned off. This has only occured since Monday, which is strange. I seem to have the following entries in the LDAP log:
Sep 19 09:22:22 xserve slapd[58]: <= bdbsubstringcandidates: (mail) index_param failed (18)\n
Sep 19 09:39:46 xserve slapd[58]: <= bdbsubstringcandidates: (givenName) index_param failed (18)\n
Sep 19 09:39:46 xserve slapd[58]: <= bdbsubstringcandidates: (mail) index_param failed (18)\n

Sep 19 09:39:46 xserve slapd[58]: <= bdbsubstringcandidates: (mail) index_param failed (18)\n
Help!
If they are still plugged into ethernet, the network settings may have Airport set as the primary network connection. If so, then Wifi will handle the LAN connection and its settings may be different that the wired one. Turning off wifi automatically would make the ethernet the primary connection.
If that's the case, Configure the wifi network (and perhaps the wifi router) or change the network port order. Go to system preferences: network and see if Airport is on top. Just click on the little settings wheel below and select "Set Service Order". Under Tiger, just go to Show: Net Port Configurations and drag the port up/down to change the order.
Hope that helps...

Mobile account users can not log on to the snow leopard server machine?
Hi all,
I've setup a network user and designated it as a mobile account. ** OS X 10.6.2 **
When the user logs out of the snow leopard server machine, home sync tries to sync the local and network home directories. It is never able to connect. The network home directory is automounted and is not the default path /Users. I can see the two home directories on disk.
Anyone else able to have their mobile users log in to the snow leopard server machine without issues?

I set up a new user on my network today and am now in a location without access to that network. I just set her up as a user on her macbook but I can't log in with her credentials. Is that because I am not on the network and it is the initial setup?
You need to set the option to create a mobile account using the Directory Utility app.

What is the maximum number of user accounts that can be logged in at once?
How many users can be logged in at once, using Fast User Switching (FUS)?
Ideally, I'd like an "official" answer from Apple, or if someone can refer me to "official" Apple documentation that answers this question, that would be fine.
I think the answer is 10 but need to know for sure.
Thanks in advance!
Mac OS X (10.4.9)You may be right about CLI vs GUI differences...
Call me a geek - but I wanted to see what would happen when my system hit the limit. So I saved all open documents, used a loop to create 40 passwordless accounts, then set up a login item so that on login, FUS would be invoked to log in to the next sequential uid.
When I came back (some time later), the system was logged in to the 40th user, and with a few exceptions, things seemed to be working ok...
The most obvious problem was that SystemUIServer was crashed in most of the users. I'm not sure when that started, but at some point after so many logins, it wasn't possible to launch the SystemUIServer, meaning no FUS menu (among other things). Other programmes launched and worked ok, though a bit sluggish (I had 7 swap files at that point, where it is rare for me to have more than two). But "Terminal.app" worked fine, and FUS was possible via command line so that wasn't a big problem, and the few other accounts I switched over to check were in a similar state.
The "Accounts" pref pane seems to be limited to showing 42 accounts (I had several accounts prior to creating the 40 test accounts), but the FUS menu (viewed from an account where SystemUIServer hadn't crashed) showed them all. I forgot to check the "Login Window".
Of course, there may be other things that don't work under these conditions that I didn't stumble across, but depending on whether or not SystemUIServer is required, and probably load and RAM availability, it looks like it is possible to squeeze at least 40 logins at once on a system.
And again, this obviously isn't "official" in any way. -

Hi Ishrak,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are trying to log into with your Apple ID, or what exactly you are seeing (alert message, directions, etc) when you try to do so. If you continue to have issues with your Apple ID, you may find one or more of the articles linked from the following page helpful:

Can't log in with valid password, can't boot from disk, can't access disk utility, in single user mode can't reset password as appears locked in caps mode with '?' for forward slash, can anyone help?
Which keyboard layout you were using? German, French ... I suppose your layout is reset to the default: US and you are unable to find the "?" or "/" ...
Please have a look into the keyboard viewer, to see how the layout of your keyboard is actually.

I have a Document Center protected document - it's a test one, that simply needs a valid AdobeID and Password to open it.
A new user can not log in and view it, older users are OK. He can log in, change has password etc, but when he tries to open the pdf, it will not accept his user name/password saying "The email address or password you entered is incorrect or you need to update your Adobe Online Centre Account. Please enter your email address or password again, or click the Manage My Account button below for help with your account". He has tried both but gets nowhere - with Manage My Account, He can log in and see his details, change password - but still can not open the pdf!
Can anyone please help?

User can't log in / Server can't create new users
I recently updated to OS X Server 10.5.5. Now one of my users can't log in. Wrong username or password the system says. I've reset the password but it doesn't help.
When creating a new user I get this error:
"The server reported the error '-14120' while trying to create the user."
How can I fix this?Well, to move the stuff, make a New Account, log into a different admin account & get BatchMod, it's much better/easier than the Finder for recursive Permission changes...
http://www.lagentesoft.com/batchmod/index.html
Now careful with BatchMod, it's crazy powerful, but easier than Command Line.
Oh, this bad user isn't using FileVault I hope???
OK, once BatchMod is loaded, you can drag the whole bad user's folder to it's icon and set the Ownership/permissions to the new replacement user, check Apply to Enclosed items, go.
Oh, if you have room you might make a copy of that User's folder first & use the copy.
Then open the bad User's folder, Select All, drag to new replacement User's folder. -

Creative cloud keeps me logged in to my old account even when I log in with my new account.
Creative cloud keeps me logged in to my old account even when I log in with my new account. When I log out of the new account, it has kept me logged in to the older account. Because of this, I can't access the programs. I am trying to access the free trials on the new account before purchasing the subscription on the new account, but it keeps me registered as the older account, even though I requested for the older account to be cancelled. I have also tried multiple times to uninstall both the programs and creative cloud desktop but the same thing keeps happening. Can someone please help me?

How do i reset it???
Chat does not run, my english is not got enough to call the hotline.
I didn*t find out how to contact adobe support by email :-(((
So, what can i do? Please help.
Otherwise, i can not read my ebooks any longer :-(((The only people that I'm aware of who can reset your activation count is
the Adobe Help line that you call. And many of those people have to be
told that it is their job. This forum does not have the ability to forward
posts to Adobe technical support to get these kinds of problems resolved.
Trust in your English - or perhaps have a friend that speaks English better
do the talking.
I have to ask what you have been doing that used up all of the
activations. We need to fix the root of the problem.
