No longer able to log in except for manually.

I've been switching between gnome-shell, openbox (stand alone) and XFCE trying to figure out which I want to use (deleting the settings after each switch) and now it won't let me login using openbox at all anymore; XFCE works if I do it manually. If I add GDM to the daemons list, it ignores it completely; If I add slim to the daemons list it gives me the error:
Failed to execute login command
Trying to start Openbox manually gives me an error something along the lines of:
Openbox-message: Failed to open the display from the DISPLAY environment variable
I'm tried removing the entire Openbox folder and the .xinitrc file and copying them back to my home folder and ~/.config, rebooting but still getting the same sort of errors.

kgas wrote:The error message for the openbox is clear. what your $DISPLAY variable says?. GDM does not use .xinitrc.
Well, the .xinitrc comment was for telling xfce and openbox to start, not GDM; I had that set in the daemons list.
But for my display variable, I'm assuming you mean the openbox environment file. It appears to be default without any really "changes" or whatever.

LDAP user no longer able to log in

We have CQ 5.3 set up using LDAP authentication. We have one user who has been using CQ with her AD Userid/password for over a year with no issues, but she came in one day and now it's saying her user id and password don't match.
We've tried on multiple different instances of CQ and she gets the same message every time. She is able to log into other applicaitons that use LDAP for authentication just fine. We have tried resting CQ to see if that resolves the issue and it hasn't. I originally thought it was some sort of issue with her LDAP account, but because she can log into other apps, I'm wondering if not? Or maybe there WAS an issue with her account, but it was resolved (she thought maybe her account was locked, so she ran an unlock procedure), but CQ just hasn't caught up to that fact? This started happening a week ago.

Hi Jennifer,
Have you tried running a manual LDAP User sync for the single user (http://localhost:4502/crx/config/ldap.jsp)? Since the user can login to other systems via LDAP, the problem is most likely with their account in CQ. Maybe try deleting their account in CQ and re-creating/re-sync via LDAP User sync.
Hope this helps.

HT1452 I am no longer able to log into my bank account, work email or credit card webpages. What can I do?

All of a sudden I'm having having problems logging into my bank account, work email, and my credit card webpages. I'm able to log into these websites on other computers. Im not sure what to do.

If you are using Safari ...
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari
Select the top six boxes then click Reset.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari.
See if that worked ...

Skype 7.10 application no longer able to log in any user, check for updates, or change online status

Hello Community,
Thanks in advance for looking into my problem report.
First off, I'm running Skype version 7.10 (777) for Mac, on my MacBook Pro Retina running Yosemite 10.10.4. I've been using Skype on this setup flawlessly for months. Recently, after adding some more credit in advance of making an international call (which worked fine), I ran into a weird problem. I can't be more specific about the initial problem, as I kind of dismissed it at the time, but it was some kind of error window from Skype regarding my attempt to add credit (which did work, btw - I see the updated balance and my bank account was debited as intended).
Now however, I cannot use the Skype application in any way. When I attempt to sign in - whether on my account (with the right password or a bogus password), or on another valid account, the application just displays the spinning balls graphic for several minutes and then reverts to the sign in screen. After rebooting my Mac, I was able to use Skype again, but now it's back to this behavior after I quit Skype. I've got a lot of work-in-progress right now and don't want to keep rebooting to try to get past this.
Note that my account/credentials is clearly not the issue; I can use Skype from my iPhone 5S no problem, and from Skype web on the same Mac. But the application itself on my Mac is DOA, whether using my account or another person's. Even the Check for Updates just stalls forever.
I have already downloaded the Skype app again and paved over the old one, and that makes no difference.
I also trashed my Library/Application Support/Skype, and restored a copy from backup prior to this problem, but it made no difference.
I've verified that my Mac firewall is not the issue - I've tried it with the firewall on and off without affect.
If anyone has a clever idea - or knows how I can get some kind of diagnostic log about what the app is doing when it's trying to contact the mother ship - please let me know!
Thanks again

MBP no longer able to log in on WIN2003 FILE server

New MBP in Aug,08. Able to access WIN2003 file server with typical clicks in Finder. Then comes October upgrade to Leopard, and this results in only being able to access file server by Finder>apple+k>connect to server by smb://##.##.##.##
Finally in December after an "upgrade" on the file server done by our IT person, I can no longer access the file server. I perform either of the above approaches to logging in and it just "hangs"...no error message, it just keeps trying, but never says that it can't find the server.
So, the IT person has done changes like taking down firewall and changing some of the enable/disable settings recommended on other chat sites for similar issues, but to no avail. HELP!

Never mind...my password to access file server contained a character that was not acceptable. Once changed, access restored.

No longer able to log into websites with Safari 3.1

Ever since updating to Safari 3.1, I can no longer log into websites (such as my company's Campfire account). It looks like I'm having a problem similar to those described by people who were using Cosmopod 2.2, however...
I don't have (nor have I ever had) Cosmopod installed.
I also don't have an Input Managers directory in /Library or ~/Library.
I've removed all my internet plugins in /Library/Internet Plug-ins
I've reinstalled Safari using the 3.1 standalone installer.
I've tried to downgrade back to 3.0.4 using the Leopard 10.5.2 combo installer (but I can't seem to actually get the combo installer to run).
Any thoughts as to other programs which might be causing Keychain hijacking?

tried it and spent the last 30 min. trying to log in
as adminstrator..
still no luck with getting through on secured sites..
any other thoughts? did the disk utility,etc..
He is something to try:
Go into the Control Panel open Accounts, create a new
user. Log into the new user account, open Safari and
try connecting to a well know site that uses SSL...
If it works, it means something is wrong with your
Safari settings in your account, bad preferences,
etc...
If it doesn't work, you have to delete system-wide
Safari preferences, and perhaps start with Disk
Utilities, Verify Permissions, etc...

Safari no longer able to log into secured sites??

" because it couldn’t establish a secure connection to
the server".
This is the error message I've been getting when either logging in
or visiting secured sites.
I recently defragmented my powerbook, and don't know if this
would have caused a security issue or not.
I'm able to view other sites with no problem. just the secured sites
I'm blocked from visiting.
Checked my preferences..cleared cache.. don't know what happened.
I was able to visit secured sites beforehand.
any thoughts?? ~A~

Skype on Panasonic P50VT20B no longer able to log ...

I've had skype working fine on my TV since I first got it over 3 years ago with the official Panasonic camera, then the other day I checked and it wasn't logged in so re-enetered my account details and then it came up with the "Cannot sync contact list" error message.
I've tried adding my birthday to my profile (along with the other crap it demands you fill in to save it) and it's made no difference at all. I can log in everywhere else (windows phone, ipad, surface, PC etc...) but the TV is having none of it.
Is there any solution to this, because having forked out over £100 on the camera this is just not acceptable to suddenly have it be a useless pile of junk?

First, I would try to remove any login startup items under System Preferences -> Accounts -> ACCOUNTNAME -> Login / Startup Items under that account.
I've had varying problems with blue screens on OS X.4 and with one machine I was unable to solve the problem, even after deleting the user account and moving all the files to different location, and recreating the account. As a last resort, you can try to move the user's home folder to someplace else on the HD, then login with the account and have OS X recreate all the files associated with the account. If that works, you can move back the files that the user needs. You might want to see what others suggest before trying that.

No longer able to use previous method for adding tracks and orginizing my library :(

I use to add a few mp3's to my library then sort the library by date added to see the just added tracks at the top [most recent] of that view, well that don't always work since itunes 11. Can anyone explain please? or even offer an alternate method? I know there is now a folder named "Automatically Add to iTunes" is it absolutely necessary that I use that folder? If it is that odd because not everyone is as gifted as I {NOT!} and they might not be able to locate the folder.
thanks
Fredy

You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
CTRL+B to turn on the menu bar.
CTRL+S to turn on the sidebar (your device should be listed here as before).
CTRL+/ to turn on the status bar.
Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour.
Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store anduntick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may allow iTunes to start up quicker).
Use the Songs view and enable (if necessary) the Date Added column, then sort in descending order. Alternatively you could use the Recently Added smart playlist to view your imports.

PC able to detect all except for the analog output channel of my SCB-68 device.

I would like to use the analog output channel of my SCB-68 device. I tried to locate the analog o/p using the wizard but still unable to detect. Why is that so?
Any possible steps/procedure that i have missed out?
Thanks

Rezn,
Aha, therein lies the problem. This was what I suspected, and thus my question as to which data acquisition card you are using. The DAQCard-AI-16XE-50 has analog inputs, digital I/O, but no analog outputs at all. So your card is working as it should, but it has no analog outputs.
If you have the 2002 National Instruments catalog, you can see this in a table on page 231 (your DAQ card is the one on the bottom), or check this pdf file:
http://www.ni.com/pdf/products/us/2mhw254-255e.pdf
Your card is also called the NI6012E. Check out the small table on the first page.

I have not been able to log into icloud for 24 hrs

Change logs not working for manual update modify/delete statements.

Hi experts,
                 My requirement is to display the change logs for a few custom z tables.The log data changes is selected in technical settings of the table.When any changes are made to the table using sm30 the changes are logged.
My requirement also displays an alv grid which allows the users to edit/insert/delete   entries in the table.
In this case the change logs are not getting recorded(ie whenever the user manually updates or inserts a row into the table the change docs are not getting stored).
My code works like this,
Whenever the user chooses a custom table and selects the display change log button i transter the control of my abap program to the standard rsvtprot program(sap std. pgm to display change logs).
sample code:
elseif sscrfields-ucomm eq c_chgdoc.
    refresh:r_seltab.
    clear:r_seltab.
    r_seltab-sign   = 'I'.
    r_seltab-option = 'EQ'.
    r_seltab-low      = w_tab.
    append r_seltab.
Call the sap standard program rsvtprot via selection screen
by passing the table name and display grid parameters.
    submit rsvtprot via selection-screen
                      with cusobj   in r_seltab
                      with alv_grid eq c_x
                      and return.
Is there any way by which i can extend the change logs functionality for the changes made using the alv grid?
Please help me out.

Hi Anuraag,
In TM you should open the transaction /SCMTMS/ZONE. Here you select the zone you would like to modify and you execute the changes you would like to make.
Regards,
Nico.

Since up updating to ios 7 i'm no longer able to receive push notifications. does anyone have a fix for a non-techie?

since updating my iphone 4s to ios 7 i'm longer able to receive push notifications for my apps. does any have any fixes for a non-technically person :-)?

I am having this problem as well. I hate to just wait and hope Apple will fix the problem, but I'm not sure what else can be done. We can't be the only people experienceing this, can we?
