One user accounts hung up, all others fine

i am running an imac g5 (1.8 ghz) w/ 1.5gb ram. just upgraded to 10.4 last month with no problem. i run 4 accounts on the machine. one of the accounts is expereincing extremeley slow click reaction and application launch speed speeds. like 5 minutes to launch word or open a photo. all other accounts are fine - even when running in parallel. i ran fix permissions and it did not help. any ideas

Delete the bad account, saving the data (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh1061.html refers), recreate it, using the same username/password combo, open up the saved data dmg (in /Users/Deleted Users/), and slowly copy things from the saved data back.

  • IPhoto '11 works on one user account but not the other

    I upgraded to iPhoto '11 from iPhoto '08 a couple of weeks ago using the MacApp store. After doing so, I opened the application on my main user account, received a message that the library had to be updated, the application did so, and it has been working wonderfully since. The problem I'm having is with my wife's user account. I did not open the application and upgrade the library immediately on this account. Before I could do so, my wife hooked up her iPhone to sync, which automatically opened iPhoto. I get the gray screen with the large spinning wheel in the center, and her library never appears. I have tried two strategies to fix this, and so far, have had no luck. The first was to hold option while launching the application, and selecting her library. I get the exact same result doing this. My next strategy was to completely delete iPhoto from my system, then re-download and reinstall it, and try to open the library once again. Unfortunately, this did not work. I thought the next step should be to delete iPhoto '11, reinstall iPhoto '08, open my wife's library using iPhoto '08, then reinstall '11 and upgrade her library. Since iLife came preinstalled on my mac when I purchased it years ago, I'm not certain how to reinstall iPhoto '08. Does anyone know how to do this, or have another suggestion for solving this problem? Thank you in advance for your help!

    In your wife's account:
    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    *What's the plist file?*
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • Washed Out Color on One User Account But Not The Other

    Heyo,
    I'm on my second Macbook Pro. Apple had to replace the first one. But that's behind us.
    Anyway, I have a bit of a predicament. I've noticed that the colors on my main user account are washed out and dull. I created a new user account to see if the problem was a hardware or software issue.
    The thing is, the account with washed out colors has Adobe Photoshop, and the rest of the Design Premium CS3 suite - as well as Final Cut Studio 2 - but these are not on the other.
    So, I'm guessing that this issue is connected with CS3 and FCS 2.
    This issue appears regardless of what color profile I use. But I normally use the Adobe RGB profile - which is what I used to test the other account.
    Any ideas what I could do to get my color back? Is there a setting I can change for this?
    Thanks for any help,
    Michael

    I'd try to isolate a corrupted user preference file.
    Apparently, Diskwarrior now claims to fix those. Or you can just look through the preferences folder in your user folder and start pulling some of those out to the disktop, log out and then log back in and see if that does anything.
    When something is affecting one account but no others, I think the clear majority of the time it is a user preference file that is responsible.

  • Safari stalls, but only on one user account

    I am having a problem with web browsers, but only on one particular user account.  Safari will usually (>90% of the time) stall after the blue bar loads 1/4 to 1/3 of the way.  It will hang permanently and never complete loading the page.  This happens primarily when I click on a link in any web page.  I can sometimes (<25% of the time) go to a page by typing the URL in the address bar.  This happens with any browser (Safari, Thunderbird, Google Chrome) with this user account.  On all other user accounts, all web browsers work normally.  The user account that is giving me trouble is the one with all of our photos, documents, etc., so would prefer not to simply delete this account and create a new one. 
    I have already tried emptying the cache, disabling the cache, restarting the computer, updating to the latest version of OS X, clearing history and website data, etc. 
    I have a mid-2011 iMac 12,1 with  2.7 GHz Intel core i5 processor and 20 GB of memory.  I am running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 and Safari 8.0.4.  I have a 1 TB hard drive with 630 GB available. 
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

  • Multiple users under my name, can I transfer files/data onto just one user account if I have an external H.D.  when I tried to delete info off one of the accounts it said I did not have permission? I assume I was in an account that was not admin.

    I noticed I have set up 4 Admin user accounts under my own name with diff. variations as seen in the attchment.  Some have a diff. password to log on to which I am able to do.  This computer is used for my business and I need info that is scattered on the other 3 accounts to be in/on ONE admin account. 
      I don't know how i ended up with multiple accounts.  Maybe due to having two 24" iMacs and multiple iPhones & iPad2 for me and family.   
    I use this computer for business and personal. 
    Due to multiple Admin user accounts I have important info scattered on the other accounts resulting in some accounts have some of the info to others having much more  but not ALL.   Some accounts have from a couple hundred songs, podcasts, etc. etc.  to a few 1,000 on another Admin account.   
    I want to consolidate ALL of my info, files. songs, podcasts, pictures & email etc. into one Admin account and delete the other accounts to reduce confusion. 
    I was told by my local Apple authorized service shop that it is not easy but moving most of the info is possible.  Their caveat was email would probably not be able to be moved other than forwarding each email I wanted out of each account and opening in the account I wanted to consolidate into. 
    As a side note,  I get an error message at times saying that I do not permission/authority to delete / move files?  What might be the issue when I encounter this type message?
    Thanks for any help.

  • Can only export songs/ringtones to itunes on one user account

    I can't for the life of me figure out why it works fine on one user account, and on the other account (there both admin accts), it appears to be exporting to itunes but, nothing ever shows up in itunes or in the itunes music folder. Any ideas on this? I have seen a few other posts with similar problems but have not been able to find a solution. Thanks in advance.

  • Multiple websites on multiple user accounts. Want all websites in one user

    I have multiple websites in multiple user accounts. At the time I started this way iWeb 08' didn't allow more then one website per user.
    I now have three limited user accounts with three iweb sites. One in each account. I'd like to move two of them to the main user account and have all three available to me in the user account I call mine. Is this possible with iWeb 09'? i can, by hand, recreate them in the main account, but I'd like an easier solution.
    I am hoping it is possible to combine the files from each "Domain.sites" and make one magical come together with each site in place.
    Thanks Everyone

    Move all of the Domain.sites2 files to one user account and rename them to represent the site inside, i.e. Myfirstsite.sites2, Mysecondsite.sites2, etc. Put them all in your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder.
    Using the application suggested by Wyodor merge the sites into a new domain file. You can only merge 2 sites at a time so you'll have to do 2, then select that new one and merge with a 3rd file, etc.
    Click to view full size
    New domain files are created by the merge process so your original domain files will be untouched.
    OR, you can leave the domain files as they are, named individually, and use iWebSites to choose and open the site you want to work on and publish. I manage multiple sites with iWebSites:
    This way the domain files loads more quickly and if there's a problem only one site is affected.

  • Magic Mouse works properly only on one user Account

    I just bought a Magic Mouse to use with my PPC Imac.  I have two users set up on this iMac and I set up the mouse while using one of those user accounts.  By the way I set it up to be a left-handed mouse with the left button being for the secondary (right) click. I got the mouse installed and it wasn't working very smoothly.  Then I discovered that I needed to update the software to the Magic Mouse Update 1.0. That seemed to get it working as fine as it could on this old machine and I was quite happy with it.  However, yesterday I switched to the other user account and the Magic Mouse was acting completely weird.  When I clicked on anything it was like a right click with menus popping up.  In addition, it wouldn't single click at all.  I checked in System Preferences that it was set up the same way as on the other account and it was.  I then tried to switch it back to be a normal right-handed mouse.  That gave me some functioning but it was very inconsistent and frustrating.  If it wasn't for the "old" wireless mouse that I had there were moments when I would have been completely stuck.
    Given that it worked fine on the one user account this doesn't seem like a hardward problem to me.  I also installed it on my husband's MacBook Pro running Lion and it works okay in both user accounts.  However, some of the special functions, like Smart Zoom and Mission Control don't seem to be functioning. 
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Did you ever get this resolved. Same thing. In my admin user account it works but in the one I use most I can't swipe scroll or anything?

  • Messages: One MacBook, One User Account, Two Users?? Help!

    Hi,
    I just upgraded to Mountain Lion on my MBA from mid 2011 - so far so good!
    In our home, my wife and I have one Mac that we both use. Since we use it most of the time to browse on the Internet, listen to music, looking at pictures e.g. we only have on user account, that we both share/use.
    In "Messages" in Mountain Lion, it seems like it is only possible to merge one Apple ID with Messages....Which means, that every time my wife wants to use this feature, she has to sign me out and log in with her own Apple-ID.
    Alternatively, to create her own user account, but all of this doesn't seem very dynamic and user friendly. I also doubt, that we are the only ones having this setup, on our Mac?!
    The concept works just fine with an iPhone, as this device is normally only used by one person. But a MacBook or iMac, might be in many cases, THE computer in the household with multiple users, each with there Apple-ID.
    My question is, what is the best way to share "Messages" between multiple users with different Apple-ID's, without having to create separate user accounts in Mountain Lion?
    Thanks and brgds.
    Per.

    Thanks for your fast reply!
    I didn't know you could switch between users like that and will definitely give this a try, if it is not possible to do it in a different way...
    It would be perfect, if it was possible to add my wife's Apple-ID to a new account, with in the settings menu in Messages on the Mac.
    So, when either she or I would get an iMessage, we would be notified in the notification center in Mountain Lion, and still be using the same user account.
    My hope is to be able to only have one user account on our Mac and both of us sharing all the cool new features in Mountain Lion, with each of our Apple-ID's.
    But, if that is not possible, you solution seems like a great compromise
    Thanks again!

  • PowerPoint file won't open under one user account, but does under another account

    Hello,
    I have a 10.9.5 macbook pro here that will not open a Powerpoint file under one user account. It is up-to-date with Software updates and Office 2008 is up-to-date as well. When I try to open the PowerPoint file, I get the message, "PowerPoint closed unexpectedly" and I can choose to Reopen (which opens a blank presentation) or OK (which closes PowrPoint). I have tried double-clicking the file from the Desktop where is resides, File --> Open from within PowerPoint and also saved it to a flash drive and tried opening from there. It does open under the admin account on the same machine and it will also open on other machines. Other PowerPoint files are opening fine...it's just a problem with the one file. The user has Read & Write privilege to the file. I tried Repairing Disk Permissions, I have tried deleting microsoft plist files, and lastly, have re-installed Office 2008. At this point, I can only think to try deleting the user account and re-adding it, but wanted to see if anyone had any ideas before I go that route.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • ISight not working from one user account on MacBook

    Hi everyone,
    It'd be great to get some help with fixing an iSight camera. I've followed the instructions here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    and have narrowed it down to a particular user account (it has admin permissions). Other user accounts can access the iSight fine. However, every application I try under that one user account can't access the iSight.
    Unfortunatly it's my wife's account. She quite likes to skype her family in the earthquake prone area of New Zealand called Christchurch.
    Any ideas of things I could try, permissions I could reset, etc would be great.
    I've tried:
    * resetting the PRAM
    * resetting the SMC
    * rebooting
    * fixing disk permissions (from multiple accounts)
    I've got a reasonably techy background, so even telling me the device node that the iSight is accessable on would be useful - that way I can manually check the permissions on that.
    Thanks!
    Tim

    Hi Tim,
    That was partly my fault  (well actually it was entirely my fault)
    I missed this bit:-
    However, every application I try under that one user account can't access the iSight.
    Now it is really Odd that this one user cannot access the camera at all in any App where as other users on the Mac can.
    I would start with the FONT BOOK.
    Check that all Fonts are active, particularly the System Fonts.
    Certain Apple Apps will not work properly if Helvetica or Lucida Grande are turned Off or Missing.
    Basically we are looking for something that she has changed (or has become corrupt) that is not directly linked to the camera but is needed (there is no direct way to turn On or Off the camera access).  (Fonts are first choice)
    Next check the Address Book.
    Is the My Card (Head and Shoulders icon) actually listing her details.
    Have a look at this
    This Apple Article refers to a .plist that is a System wide one.
    However as a .plist it may be the thing that is blocking access to one user.
    I don't have it on my G4/1GHz Dual processor running 10.5.8 but neither do I have iMovie 7 (from iLife '08)
    Some people have reported that removing this gets the camera back for iChat.
    Make the Address Book Export of copy of itself  (File Menu > Export > Archive)
    After that I would try moving (NOT Deleting) the whole contents of her Home Folder/Library/Preferences.
    Then Restart the computer then try specific apps.
    If Skype then works you will know it is one of the .plists that you moved.
    Then comes the monotonous bit of moving back some .plists at a time until you can narrow down the one that is at fault.
    Have you tried a Safe Boot ?  (it will need another restart after it has done that)

  • One user account can't connect to VPN on Server 2012

    Problem with Server 2012 VPN Access.  I have one user account that won't connect to RAS and I am stumped.  No other account is having a problem.  The permissions are correct, the connection settings are correct.  But it will not connect
    no matter what I do.  The account will not connect from any computer.  But if I use another account in the connection it connects no problem.   The account will connect to Remote Web Workplace no problem, Outlook is connecting to exchange,
    she connects to Sharepoint 2013 no problem.  Just the RAS connection won't authenticate.
    I get the errors.
    Error 20271 CoId={79DB7056-D8F6-489E-8988-66A171AE49B9}: The user  connected from IP but failed an authentication attempt due to the following reason: The connection was prevented because of a policy configured on your RAS/VPN server. Specifically,
    the authentication method used by the server to verify your username and password may not match the authentication method configured in your connection profile. Please contact the Administrator of the RAS server and notify them of this error.
    Error 20258 CoId={79DB7056-D8F6-489E-8988-66A171AE49B9}: The account for user  connected on port VPN1-127 does not have Remote Access privilege.  The line has been disconnected.
    And this account was connecting fine for a while now.  Nothing has changed on the Server or her computer.
    I have researched the errors, none of the fixes apply because it's only one account having problems and it looks exactly the same as other accounts that can connect
    Any help would be great

    Hi Karama,
    Does this account belongs the same group with other accounts?
    To verify if it is a issue of policy configuration, please try to create a temporary policy with no restrictions.
    To create a policy with no restrictions, please follow the steps below,
    Create a network policy.
    Add Day and Time Restrictions into the Conditions.
    In the Day and Time Restrictions, choose permit all.
    In Constraints, allow all authentication methods.
    Leave other settings to default value.
    Move the policy to the top of the list.
    If it works, please check your original policy, it should be a policy configuration issue.
    If it doesn't work, please check the event of NPS, the policy preventing the authentication is logged there.
    If the request matches the temporary policy, please try to reset the password of the account.
    Best Regards.

  • Keyboard is not working on one user account

    Only one user account on my iMac cannot use the keyboard. All other accounts including the admin works fine. But after my daughter signs in to her account (using the keyboard to type her password) the keyboard is no longer detected by bluetooth. The mouse works fine and it seems as though the keyboard actually loses power too because the caps lock button does not even light up anymore. Please help!

  • How do I transfer Pages from one user account to another

    How do you transfer Pages from one user account to another on the same Mac?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you haven't modified anything, Pages is installed on /Applications. All users have access to this folder, identified as "Applications" on the Finder sidebar, so you don't have to move anything, because Pages will work on all your users.
    If you have installed Pages on ~/Applications (being ~ your user folder), then you have to move Pages to /Applications. After doing this, you will be able to access to Pages on all users

  • Transfer music from one user account to another on the SAME mac?

    My family (wife, son, daughter, and me) share an imac but we all have our own user accounts. Our entire itunes music library is in one user account and is getting to the point of being unmanageable.
    Can I move some of my itunes library (e.g., my son's music) to another user account on the same iMac? Some songs were imported from CD and others were purchased from my Apple ID number.
    It's my understanding that an ipod can only be synced with one itunes library at a time, but I thought Apple also restricted the usage of music bought from itunes to a finite number of computers. If this is true, I think I would be able to transfer a group of songs from one user account to another so long as the user accounts were on the same computer.
    I was told that I could just drag the songs into a shared folder and then log into his account and drop them in iTunes.
    Some specific questions:
    1) Can I move all music files (CD and purchased) to the shared folder for dropping into his account?
    2)The purchased ones were purchased under MY apple ID which I do not want to give him access to. Should I create one for him or just have him use mine and wait for my password. I would like to put an allowance on his new ID number and keep it separate from mine. Would that make a difference in the future if I wanted to use one of his songs on my iPod or in an iMovie project?
    I just reinstalled my Lepoard OS X and put all my data back. I did not deauthorize anything before I did this. Did I need to? Or is even a clean install on the SAME machine ok and seen as the same authorization?
    Thanks in advance!!

    You can give him copies of song files, either by using a shared folder, or by putting the copies on a USB flash drive from which he can copy them to his own iTunes library.
    Any DRM-protected tracks that you have purchased from Apple can only be played if the user has authorization to the account(s) from which the tracks were purchased. Authorization requires physical access to the computer and knowledge of the password, and you can figure it from there!
