MY LOG IN SCREEN HAS CHANGED

My log in screen has changed to just a Name and pass word and how would i get back to the admin screen. The screen is a grey back ground with just the apple log and name and password.
How do i get back to the Admin account ?//

One small detail Wuz…
How does he get to the Accounts pane if he can't log in?
recce61alfa - have you tried entering your account name and password (use the full name - e.g. Fred Bloggs rather than the short name fred)?

  • Log in screen has group named "other"

    The Log in screen has a group named "other"
    I do not know where this is from
    who ever has password can accress machine
    In System Preferences this account does not show
    Could it have secret Admin priviledges?
    How can I remove it?
    I think it should be impossible for a log in account to be hidden

    I followed the suggestion to re set root.
    Click the lock in the Directory Utility window.
    Enter an administrator account name and password, then click OK.
    Choose Enable Root User from the Edit menu.
    Enter the root password you wish to use in both the Password and Verify fields, then click OK.
    The Directory Utility window lock was already unlocked
    There was no field to enter an administratro accout name and password
    therefore could not get to edit menu
    only option was to click on lock to lock it
    since I do not know if the root PW has been changed or to what I did not close the lock

  • My safari preferences/ security screen has changed and no longer addresses cookies.  There is now a Preferences/Privacy screen that allows one to delete cookies, although it is harder to do than the older security screen.  Was this an update?

    My Safari Preferences/Security screen has changed and no longer addresses cookies. Rather, there is a new Preferences/Privacy screen that allows you to manipulate cookies, but it is not as easy to use as when cookies were on the security screen. Was this an update?  Has this change affected anyone else? This is strange, because  Safari Help still states cookies are manipulated on the Security screen, even though the screen has changed and no longer addresses cookies.

    Presuming you're referring to Safari 5.1, yes, it's moved, but I don't see it as being harder. Now you can clear all privacy-related items - cookies, cache and history - with one button, the "Remove All Website Data" button. If you want to work with individual cookies, it's still just one button, the "Details" button. So no, I don't see it as being more difficult.

  • ITunes Sync Screen Has Changed On New Version 8.2.1

    This may have been asked already. I have just upgraded iTunes to the latest version 8.2.1. I was on 8.0 previously.
    My question is, I noticed that the iTunes Sync screen has changed. Now when syncing, instead of showing the screen with the check boxes (ie Use Disk Storage) and the disk usage at the bottom of the screen, it just shows my songs in a list.
    Is there anyway to put this back via preferences? I heavily rely on that screen.
    TIA,
    Ted

    You have to click the device every time you connect it. Some people like this because connecting the device does not interrupt whatever they were doing in iTunes at the time. I prefer the old way though.
    You can send your thoughts on this to Apple here:

  • HT204053 I rfor ntly changed my email address and apple id- when accessing app store from my iphone the old id (email address) still apears on the log in screen - cant change and access app store

    I recently changed my email address and also my apple id to match- this is all working OK and I can access store ,apple account etc - however when I get notifications on my i phone to update apps via app store the log in screen still show my old apple id -email address which is no longer valid. when I enter my password I am denied access - there is no comand on my i phone to change the log in id for the app store ( there is for changing password or forgotten password only) does anyone have the solution for me please - many thanks, fijijohn

    when I get notifications on my i phone to update apps via app store the log in screen still show my old apple id
    That's because apps are forever tied permanently to the Apple ID that bought them, even if they were free. That is the only ID that can ever update them.
    Unfortunately you went about this the wrong way. Rather than making a new Apple ID with the new email address, you should have just changed the name and email address associated with the old ID. Now you are kind of screwed because it's too late to use the new email on the old ID since you used it to create a new Apple ID. Apple does not transfer content from one ID to another and Apple doesn't merge IDs.
    You can try to resurrect the old Apple ID with a new email address and maintain two Apple IDs, or decide which ID and it's content you wish to abandon.

  • Have been going into and out of Firefox since 1530GMT without problems but message on main screen has change to normal one from stating "Upgrade to latest version" and I'm puzzled how that can have happened ?

    This is a follow up to my message sent around 1529GMT where very time I started Firefox, it would show the message "Upgrade to latest version. So I did - every day for last four days - but the Upgrade message would still be there. Suddenly, today from 1600-ish GMT the problem has disappeared. Has someone changed something somewhere ?

    this is total bullshit. so frustrated with this nonsense.

  • My screen has changed and text boxes suddenly around all subjects and elements of screen?

    Faint black lines/boxes suddenly appear and now all text and major sections of screen are surrounded with lines. My guess is that is either FF or Microsoft setting. If so I haven't found it. HG

    Can you attach a screenshot?

  • Mail screen has changed. no list of incoming etc

    I opened my mail, but the screen just says welcome to thunderbird etc. I am used to seeing my inbox and files over to the left side. How do I get this to come up? I can not find how to get it.

    Well, I will definitely try this next time it happens! I really can not try for now as I went to internet provider, removed e-mails going back to February, and when I went back to firefox, I had the option of seeing my inbox!
    Thank you SO much for answering my question, I will try it next time!

  • X220 log-in screen changed to Windows 7

    My X220 laptop arrived two days ago and the log-in screen (before going to the desktop) changed from a black background with the word THINK to the regular Windows 7 background.
    In the two days that I have had my computer, I was loving the black background with the word THINK everytime I signed into my computer. I just wish I had it back. Is there any way to get this screen back? 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Yup I did change to a Windows theme, and that was what caused my log-in screen to change. Thank you for that. All is good now. I reverted back to the default theme, and changed it's background to my liking.

  • 2 log in screens?

    Ever since I upgraded to OS X Yosemite, whenever I boot up my computer I have to log in twice. The only difference is the first log in screen has an orange circle with a tick/check in it. After that I get a loading bar to show it's booting up, which I never had before as well, and then it takes me to the 2nd log in screen. Does anyone else have this issue and do you know whether it's normal or how to fix it?
    thanks

    Do you have FileVault enable?  FileVault requires that you unlock the drive before it will allow you to boot.  Then you get to login to the account you wish to use.

  • How do I change the info on the log in screen?

    I got a new Macbook Pro at a new company I am now working for.  I migrated my profile over from my previous computer, which is great.  However, my log-in screen still has the information from my old computer.  Is there anyway to change that? 

    Open the Sharing pane of System Preferences and change the computer's name.
