Name/Password radio clicked -- users still show

We're tightening security on our macs and have been changing login options from showing a list of users to showing Name and password.
On one particular machine, I logged into the admin account to make the switch and the panel in System Prefs-->Accounts-->Login Options where you would normally choose a radio button under Display Login Window As: ... was grayed out. I though that odd, so I enabled the root user, logged in as root, was able to choose the appropriate radio button and logged out.
When I came back, I was presented with what I wanted -- Name and Password boxes. But when I log in as the local user (or admin user) and Log Out (or Restart), I'm presented with the list of users again, NOT the Name/Password boxes.
Looking again at the selections as the admin, the correct selection is chosen, but the options are grayed out and I couldn't change them if I wanted.

OK, found it. I recalled this happened just after I bound the machine to Active Directory. I had chosen to allow administration by enterprise admins, and I guess somewhere up the line, somebody has turned on showing List of Users as the preference. I unbound, unchecked, restarted and now all is well.
Now I have to track down the network admin up the line to make sure that doesn't happen again down the road.

  • Disabled AD users still showing in People Search - LDAP query already filtering

    We are running MOSS 2007 on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard. In the past couple of weeks we have noticed that our disabled Active Directory users are no longer being removed from SharePoint. On my import connection I have an LDAP query of "(&(objectCategory=Person)(objectClass=User)(!userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)(mail=*ca)(sn=*)(department=*)(!(!givenName=*)))",
    which among other things is filtering out disabled users. This has been this way for 5 years now and always worked fine. Now it has stopped doing its job and I can't figure out why. I have performed a complete reindex of the search as well as multiple full
    profile imports all to now avail.
    Can anyone shed some light on this for me?
    TIA
    Sandra

    Create the filter in AD connection 
    Open Edit connection filters screen from that you can see Exclusion filter for users.
    In Exclusion filter for users enter the below values.
    Attribute : userAccountControls (Select from dropdown)
    Operator: Bit on Equal (Select from dropdown)
    Filter : 2
    Once you enter the required values click on Add button and it will show the
    below details in Exclusion filter for users.
    Do the full crawl after this.

  • Please advise: iTunes Radio Staff Favorites still showing April

    Both my PC's now running iTunes 8.2 under Radio show Staff Favorites April 2009. Is this normal? Do Apple normally update this monthly? Should it not show Staff Favorites June or at a minimum May?
    Thx,
    David

    A simply I have April as well would be welcome as I want to ensure all is working normal and I find it odd that I never got a May or June "update"
    Thanks,

  • Ive changed my account email and password on the pc but my old email is still showing on iphone and i can,t get into app store

    how can i get rid of old email address on iphone to gain access to app store ive changed my email address and password on laptop but still showing old email address ive deleted that account

    You can try contacting Apple here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    You do know tht if you created a new Apple ID - that is different than changing the Apple ID. Apps are always tied to the ID that was used to make the purchase. If the old ID is popping up, it seems like that ID is rid to the apps indicating that you created a new ID. Of course, I could be wrong or misunderstanding what you're saying as well.
    If you go to Settings>iTunes & App Store, tap your old ID and sign out and then sign in with the new ID, that should be all that you need to do, if you changed the ID. If you created a new ID, that will not work.

  • Reset my apple ID but old one still shows on screen.  How can I update my apps now?

    I reset my apple ID and password but old one still shows on screen.  How can I update my apps now?

    Hi jbrunner,
    Did you create a new Apple ID, or simply update the old one?
    If you simply updated the old one, then you need to go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores, click on the Apple ID, and sign out. Then sign back in with your new ID. Also, you want to go to Settings>iCloud and scroll down to the bottom and delete the iCloud account and sign back onto it with your new Apple ID as well.
    If you created a new Apple ID, then there are other considerations. Post back if that is the case.
    Cheers,

    Is this your issue >  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
    If so...
    The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required
    If you do not have that information you will not be able to use the Device.

    What is your operating system?

  • I just changed my user name to my e-mail address on my iMac. It works fine there but when I try to use my iPhone it still shows my old user name and will not let me enter??

    I just changed my user name to my e-mail address on my iMac. It works fine there but when I try to use my iPhone it still shows my old user name and will not let me enter??

    There is no user name needed to "enter" or use iPhones...
    Assuming you mean your iTunes Store account ID:
    Settings > Store > tap ID > sign out > sign in with new ID

  • When i updated my username on laptop, my i touch still showing "old" user name even after sync.

    When i updated my userid at apple web site using my laptop, my i touch still showing "old" userid and will not accept "old" or new password even after sync.

    What do you mean you "had to unlock it"?  Do you mean you jailbroke it?  If it was jailbroken and you updated iOS, then wiping it out is the natural consequence of that.

  • Just today my iphone5 will not get email.  Error says user name/password is incorrect.  I have retyped info but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions?

    My iphone5 can't open email.  Says user name/password incorrect; however, my info has not changed.
    Any suggestions

    I agree. The iPhone is not saying that your email settings are wrong, it is your email. Please check that your email is working using a computer or something else. If it works then delete your account on your iPhone and set it up again.
    I hope that this helps and do please report back.

  • Help how do i retrieve files hidden due to deletion of user? memory still shows they are they're on HD?

    Hi,
    It all started when I changed the name of the user and wanted to change the user/folder to have the same name. I manged to do this following a site tutuorial which required you to make a secon user, when I deleted this user I must of clicked the wrong setting as my dock changed, most programs/apps are still here but it now displays no files in documents etc? The hard drive shows the memory is still being used so the files must be hidden to me now?
    Only one Apple ID has ever been used.
    Thanks

    Hello TomGreat86,
    I would recommend this article named Mac OS X: How to recover a home folder (directory) found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2258
    Recovering a deleted user account or user's files from the same computer
    If you just want to recover certain files from a deleted user, skip to step 5. If you want to resurrect everything from a deleted user account, choose System Preferences from the Apple menu.
    Click Accounts.
    Create a new administrator account (select the "Allow user to administer this computer" checkbox). You can use the same short name as the former user's account if you wish—this account will essentially replace the former one.
    Note: If you don't want this account to have long-term administrator access, deselect the "Allow user to administer this computer" checkbox after completing the rest of these steps.
    Log out of your account, then log in as the new user account.
    Go to /Users/Deleted Users, then double-click the deleted_user.dmg file (where deleted_user is the name of the deleted account) to mount the disk image on the desktop.
    Note: If the Home folder was protected by FileVault, you'll need to enter the former user account's password to proceed. In general, make it a point to turn off FileVault before deleting a user to avoid this situation.
    If you only want certain items, drag those files onto your desktop to copy them. If you want to resurrect the deleted account, copy everything from the disk image to the same locations in your (new user's) Home folder.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Question on how to Hide the User Name, Password, and Domain fields in the MDT Wizard

    MDT 2012 U1
    Deploying Windows 7 via Offline Media (ISO) to MS Virtual PC's
    I am looking on how to Hide the User Name, Password, and Domain fields which are prepopulated in the MDT wizard via the CS.ini (Not so concerned about the Domain field as I am User Name and Password)
    We do need the Computer Name and OU fields to be seen, so skipping the wizard is not a option
    The client just does not want these fields to be seen by the end users, they dont want them to even know the account name used for adding the machine to the domain, of course the password is not displayed but it must not be displayed either.
    But since we use the fields they must still  be fuctional just not seen.
    Thanks.....
    If this post is helpful please click "Mark for answer", thanks! Kind regards

    You shouldn't have to edit DeployWiz_Definition_ENU.xml. You should only need to add "SkipAdminPassword=YES" to the CS.ini file and your authentication information.
    Example:
    [Settings]
    Priority=Default
    Properties=MyCustomProperty
    [Default]
    OSInstall=Y
    SkipCapture=NO
    SkipAdminPassword=YES
    UserID=<MyUserID>
    UserPassword=<MyPassword>
    UserDomain=<MyDomain.com>
    SkipProductKey=NO
    SkipComputerBackup=YES
    SkipBitLocker=NO
    -Nick O.
    Nick,
    SkipAdminPassword=YES is for:
    You can skip the Administrator Password wizard page by using this property in the
    customsettings.ini.
    I am hidding the Username/Password/and domain field in the computer name Wizard pane which is read from the cs.iniDomainAdmin=xxxxx
    DomainAdminPassword=xxxxx
    DomainAdminDomain=xxxxxx
    JoinDomain=xxxxxx

  • Deleted user account, but account still shows up in Login Window

    I deleted the user from the system preferences but it is still showing up in the login window. I restarted and rebooted. I even reset the admin password manually with rm/ var/db/.AppleSetupDone.
    What do I do?
    User V.K. helped a previous post but I am not sure if those instructions are specific to what the needs were of the person. I need an explanation for TERMINAL COMMAND.
    Thanks!

    Might be a corrupted preference file...
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following;
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginitems.plist
    Click Go then move the com.apple.loginitems.plist file to the Trash.
    Reatart your Mac.
    If that didn't help, move the com.apple.loginwindow.plist file from the Preferences folder as well, then restart.

  • Forgot my user name & password

    Hi
    Today I tried accessing my email accounts, entered into internet mail account, suddenly my user name and password were blank and I totally forogt them both. I never needed them in the past whenever adding or removing email account, therefore, I never memorized or wrote them down.
    Now, I am totally out from eamil settings becuase I forgot my internet mail account user name & password
    Would appreciate any help on this. Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Try again. Whoever you talked to is misinformed. From what you are describing, your BlackBerry Internet Service account credentials are what you need...and Orange manages that account for you. They indeed do have the ability to reset the account for you. They may have to shut it down and recreate it, but they can fix it. Indeed, ONLY they can fix it. If you get the same answer, be gently persistent and request escalation. Be sure you are using the correct terms...your BIS account credentials is what this is about. Your email account credentials are totally irrelevant.
    Good luck!

  • Trying to change the name to the itunes account and made one myself because my sister use to use my computer and updating my apps where under her email now that i made my own i cant update anything on my phone its still showing my sisters email.

    basically my sister used my computer and everytime we had to update our apps it would be her email thats showing and thats when i knew that pw. since shes doesnt use it anymore i made my own and now it wont let me update it its still showing hers.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. 
    If your sister doesn't know the password for her old ID, and if her old ID is an earlier version of her current ID, she needs to temporarily recreate the old ID so you can delete if from your phone using her current password.  To do this, have her go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with her current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to her old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to her old email address.  You can now use the password for her current ID to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for her old account ID.  After you do this, Next, have your sister recreate her current ID again by going back to https://appleid.apple.com and changing her primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.
    Then your can save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to the camera roll on your device, then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted.  You will be prompted to either keep or delete the iCloud data from your device.  If the data is already in another account you can choose Delete.  If you need to migrate it to another account, choose Keep, then choose Merge when signing into the new account.
