Only Administrator account can access store

OK, I have windows vista and only the secret Administrator account can access the itunes store (this is an account that can be activated using cmd, it has complete priveleges). so anyways there are two other accounts on the computer and neither can access the store (network connection has timed out). the computer is connected to the internet. both firewalls (windows, mcaffee) are disabled.
HELP!

anyone, please help me...

Why won't my apps show on my main screens? The only way I can access them is by going back to the App Store and clicking open.

Why won't my apps show on my main screens? The only way I can access them is by going back to the App Store and clicking open.

So there are no apps at all on your home screens? Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. If you don't see anything after that, take a look at all of your home screens and folders to see if something is hidden. It that doesn't work, you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

Server 10.4.4, administrator account has "access account" disabled

Hi,
I allowed a new tech to add users to our Xserve. Somehow he disabled the check box "access acount" in workgroup manager for the only administrator account. It now appears we cannot turn this back on! The end result is you can only access workgroup manager locally.Remote desktop and VNC now won't work. We can't re-enable the "access account" option for the administrator account or create new administrators as our only administrator account is now not active. I have no idea why you should be able to do this, but duplicated the problem on a test machine. If you create an admin account and uncheck the box "access acount" then the server can no longer be adminstrated!
Any ideas?

How many accounts can I store at best in one People Container?

Hello, everyone!
I want to use the Sun Directory Server as the data store of OpenSSO, So, the questions are as follows:
1. How many accounts can I store at best in one People Container?
2. If I store 100,000 accounts in one People Container, would the efficiency of Authentication be reduced? How about 1,000,000 accounts?
Best wishes,
Shen

i currently have 15,000,000 in one of my ldap instances, multimaster, multi slave including fractionally replicated slaves. No problems what so ever. Large schema in place too, each entry has multiple objectclasses and multiple attributes in each.
Just make sure your i/o is upto handling all the additional mods coming into such large databases.
forget T series boxes for that sort of scale as they are pants! Big X series boxes as a minimum, sparc is better. Most importantly, tune your entry and database cache sizes to reduce any i/o to an absolute minimum.

Can I create pages that only authorized users can access?

I need to create pages that only authorized users can access, is that possible to be done with Muse?

Hi Natalia,
If you are using Business Catalyst as a host , then "Yes" you need to publish a website to use Secure zone of Business Catalyst.
If you are using a different host or BC then you may use third party widgets like
Adobe Muse Password Protection Widget | MuseThemes.com

I want to be the only one who can access my profile, so how to create passwords for profiles (NOT for websites) ?

Maybe use the portable Firefox version on a USB stick if you want to prevent access to your profile.<br />
Solutions that use an extension can easily be bypassed by starting in [[Safe mode]].<br />
Otherwise you need to locate the Firefox profile folder on an encrypted drive.

How do i reset admin password. no disc but system automativally logs me in as administrator and can access root user mode

I recenly got this macbook, MA&00LL/A, max OS X, V:10.4.11, 2GHz IntelCore 2 duo, 2GHz, When I power up it automatically logs me on as administrator but prompts for password when I try to access/change certain features. I got the macbook from my cousin who has forgot password and has lost disc. I can access root user mode but as iam unfamiliar with apple I am hesitant to delete anything without making things worse. Is their anyway I can reset this admin password without the disc or simply delete this user and reconfigure system as myself as administrator. step by step instructions would be appreciated at this stage till i familiarize myself more. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If it came down to buying a disc, how much roughly do these cost??? thanks again

If you don't have your install disks you can get the 10.4 gray disks by calling Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 They can send them to you for about $16 per disk plus S & H. Just give them your serial number and they'll know which ones you need.
To find your serial number go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info, the System Profiler will then come up. The Serial Number (System) is down near the bottom of the Hardware Overview list.
If you don't have your install disc handy,then follow these steps
1. Start up in single-user mode (hold Command-S as thecomputer starts up).
2. Type: mount -uw /
3. Press Return.
4. Type this: passwd (user's short name) Replace "(user's shortname)" with the short name of the user account whose password you wish to reset. If you are not sure what the account name is, you can get a list of usernames by typing: ls /Users
5. Press Return.
6. Enter a new user password.
7. Press Return.
8. Type: reboot
9. Press Return.

I've no access to other accounts but other accounts can access mine!

Good Evening,
I have 3 accounts on my Powerbook. Mine (the administrator), my partner's and our boy's.
The thing I don't get is that when I went to 'Users' earlier to access something from my partner's account I only had access to 'Public' and 'Sites' and not 'Desktop', 'Music', 'Movies' etc...
My access to our boy's account seems unlimited.
Thing is, when my partner is logged in, she is able to access ALL of my account - even though I am the administrator. Same with our boy's account - he has full access to all my files!
Any suggestions? It seems ludicrous that others can access the administrator's account but the administrator can't access other people's accounts.
Many thanks,
Billy.

Sounds like the permissions have been changed - for example, access allowed for the admin or an old user's group. Normally, a user (even an administrator) does not have access to another user's files. You don't go into another account to get files, that is what the Shared and Public folders and drop boxes are for:
The /Users/Shared folder is used to share files between all users (it has read/write access by others), and a user's Public folder is for (read only) files that the user wants to share with others. The drop box in a user's Public folder is to pass files to that particular user.
Check the permissions of various user folders - normally they are:
The /Users folder is owned by the system, with read/write access for the admin group and read only for others.
A user's home folder has read/write permissions for the owner, and read only for their group and others (read only is to allow access to their Public and Sites folder).
The Public and Sites folder in a user's home folder has read/write permissions for the owner, and read only for their group and others.
All other folders in a user's home folder have read/write permissions for the owner, and no access for group or others. Note that if folders or files are added to the root level of a user's home folder, the permissions should be changed to no access by group or others, otherwise they can be read by others (folders inherit the same permissions of the user's home folder).

Is there a way for an administrator account to access a normal account...

without resetting the normal account's password?
I'm coming from years in a PC world and I'm very new to the Mac. I bought an iMac several months ago as a family computer. My kids use it for homework, web surfing and email.
I created their accounts as normal accounts and my account is an administrator. On several occasions I've wanted to update some software (like iTunes or MS Office) and the application is locked by another user. I could reset their password, or I could force a shutdown and risk losing unsaved homework.
Is there a process by which an administrator or super user can access a normal user's account?
Of course, I could also use this method to snoop on the kids, which is also an objective...
Thanks.

The user accounts are set up to prevent access by others, and any application that is installed in a public area (in /Applications, for example) is available for all users and can be updated by the administrator. That said, the superuser does have full access to all files from the Terminal if they know what they are doing, but I don't see any particular reason to do it this way (unless you are really wanting to snoop).

Only One User Can Access Time Capsule At A Time

This seems strange....
I've been using the Time Capsule without issue for around a year. I can access it from my Mac Mini with no problem. I can also access it from my Macbook with no problem. When it comes to the iMac, I have two user accounts. One for me, and one for my wife. When my wife tried to access it, the Time Capsule blocked access beyond the root. (So we could select TC from the sidebar, then double-click the TC folder that appeared, then the small icon in the top of the window has a stop sign through it with no folders displayed).
Mine is fine - so I tried to fix it by deleting my wife's keychain passwords to the TC. I reset them and it connected her. However, when I swapped to my account I was locked out!
I reconnected, and I regained access - and now my wife's locked out again!
I haven't got the time capsule set to user account access, so I have no idea where to go from here!
Please help!

I am not sure if this issue is happening because of following observation.
The config is using ip 10.2.10.255 in the VPN pool , we cannot use this ip address as this is broadcast ip in the VPN pool subnet. Do the following and then check connecting vpn clients and post results.
no ip local pool ifn_noc_ips 10.2.10.1-10.2.10.255 mask 255.255.255.0
ip local pool ifn_noc_ips 10.2.10.1-10.2.10.254 mask 255.255.255.0

Have lost my Administrator account - can no longer make any system changes

Since I had forgotten my Administrator Password on my son's Mac, I inserted a Leopard DVD, restarted the Mac while holing the "c" key and used the utilities menu to reset the password on my Administrator acount.
After following the on screen steps to reset the computer, when I rebooted the Mac my administrator account was now completely missing.
All that is left are two standard user accounts that work fine but do not allow me to install new hardware becasue they are not administrator accounts. What did I do wrong? and can I recover my Administrator account or promote one of the remaining standard user accounts to adminstrator level?
Thanks in advance for any help

Welcome to Apple Discussions!!
What did I do wrong?
Did you use a Leopard DVD on a Tiger system? That's what your post appears to be saying.
and can I recover my Administrator account or promote one of the remaining standard user accounts to adminstrator level?
You can use the appropriate one of these User Tips to promote one of the existing ones:
I lost my admin user (Mac OS X 10.4 and earlier)
I lost my admin user (Mac OS X 10.5)
Be sure you use the right tip, and also to make the appropriate username substitutions.

Can't see login Account, Only 'Other account' can be login

I changed my SL from 32bit to 64bit. Then it's can't display my login account. and only let me input username and password.
Now I only use ROOT login my leopard. other account can't login.
But my account files still in /home/xxx. It not delete.
Please tell me...How to repair it.
thanks!

If I understand well, you were able to get the user DN. Based on the name, the user account should be directly under your domain (Not under an OU or a Container). So, use ADUC and select your domain. Once done, you should be able to see the user account.

Only 'oracle' account can connect via sqlplus

Currently, only the linux oracle account can connect to the
server via sqlplus. A have put an exact copy of oracle's
.profile script into other accounts home directories, and those
accounts belong to the linux dba group. When another account
starts sqlplus, they are prompted with login and password, and
the the following error occurs:
ORA-01034 ORACLE NOT AVAILABLE
But if I login as 'oracle', i can connect no problem. I always
start the server under the oracle account with the dbstart
script.
I am probably overlooking something stupid, any ideas?
Please email me directly in addition to the post.
Thanks,

There is nothing to do with your .profile, default password, etc.
After Oracle installation via the installer (orainst), have you
run root.sh? Root.sh will set the setuid/setgid bit on for the
file $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle. If it is not set, only the owner
(i.e. oracle/dba) can connect.
Fix the problem by rerun root.sh. If it doesn't help, simply run
the commands:
$ chown oracle:dba $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle
$ chmod ug+s $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle

Question about administrator account and access

I am logged on as administrator, but when I try to access certain programs or files I am refused to access as a limited user.
Can anyone help?
Jon

Hi there,
you can access such files or programs by doing a "right-click" on the file/shortcut and "left-click" on "Run as administrator..".
Then the application will be executed wirh maximum rights and full access.

I cannot sign in or go to acount under quick links in app store.The only thing I can access is create a new account, and when I try to do this, it says that my apple ID is already being used.

Running the latest version and most current update of snow leopard. Have 250 GB on computer. Have Intel core I7 2.66 Ghz processor. My computer is about 2 yrs. old. So processor and memory are not an issue. I want to upgrade to Lion, but cannot do this because I cannot access Mac App Store. I have backed up computer on external hard drive, and I have no music or pictures on my computer now. I have I-Life, Windows for Mac, I-tunes, Pandora, Plants vs. Zombies, and that is all for additional software on here. I have had problems with the app store since it was launched! Apple is suppose to be superior! At 2 plusk, I would expect it to be, but so far, it has been inferior! It is definately NOT user friendly. At least the computer end and software is not. It has been a pain dealing with the app store, trying to watch webcast on here, always having to download an extra plugin only to find that it isn't compatible! PLEASE MAC, for 2,000 dollars...REALLy?!

Leigh...
but cannot do this because I cannot access Mac App Store
If you can't access the App Store from the Apple menu, Dock, or Applications folder installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo will reinstall the App Store for you.
It's ok to do this even you are already running v10.6.8.
Plants vs. Zombies, and that is all for additional software on here
FYI: Some third party software can cause issues with the App Store > Mac App Store: Sign in sheet does not appear, or does not accept typed text
Apple is not responsible for incompatibility isssues with third party software.
