Problems switching users and recovering from long sleep sessions

I upgraded my 2008 MacBook Pro to Mavericks and am now having issues with switching users and recovering from sleep. I can sometimes go to the login window but the system hangs when switching from one user to another. It often hangs after long sleep sessions.
Often I am finding that switching off and back on i sth easiest solution but I am getting a bit sick of it. Anyone have any suggestions?

funkyblue:
I usually leave my Pismo on and allow it to sleep. I find that waking from sleep and general functioning of the computer works a lot better if from time to time (I do it at least weekly) I shut down the computer, start up in Safe Mode, log in, empty Trash and reboot normally. The emptying Trash part clears the font caches.
You should consider doing other maintenance procedures, if you don't already. Gulliver's Mac OS X System Maintenance has good ideas with linked resources.
Please do not hesitate to post back with further questions or comments.
Good luck.

    Why does Quicktime tell me it can't play certain videos created with my Phantom 2 v3 drone ? I fly the drone and switch back and forth from video to still pics and while I may have filmed four videos , sometimes Quicktime tells me that one of them can't be played . Checking the info shows that each of the unplayed videos was saved in the same mp4 format as the playable ones yet some of my most important videos won't play . It's getting very frustrating .

    first; I use Perian, that helps even though it is no longer supported, (must have for avi files)
    the apple-cores at apple have gotten very sloppy -- quicktime is a bit finicky and flakey. 
      example,   occasionally (when copy file from quad's card to hard drive)  the avi will show up as a 'mov' file and qt plays it no problem and no conversion.
    but that is very occasionally,  most of the time qt won't convert the file,   -- iMovie won't open an avi without Perian installed  ,  I don't know how that effects qt.
    qt 7"pro" is no good either, (qt 10 does everything it does and for NOT the extra $35)  
    I have gone to VLC  and MPlayerX  for direct playback for drones and cameras.  

  • Switching users and get white screen

    I have now had this happen twice, and it seems to be a mountain lion flaw.  I am either logged in and switch users; or I am logged in, it goes to sleep, I wake it, and then switch users.  I cannot isolate it completely, but I get a white screen. I am able to move my mouse, but everything is white. I eventually have to just shut it down.  I have reset my PRAM, and at a later time even unplugged my computer for a little and rebooted.  It takes a few days to get it to reoccur.  I think it is isolated to the following scenario, but not positive:  I am working on my user, leave my computer, come back and it is a sleep, wake it from sleep, and then switch user, and then WHITE SCREEN where mouse cursor can be moved.  I am using a Mid 2010 imac.
    Please Help,
    Sam

    The 10.8.1 seems to have fixed it from locking up completely, but the transitions between usres is still slower than Lion.  At least no freezing up yet.

  • I recently had to swap out my iphone 4s and I am having problems restoring photos and videos from icloud.  I get a message on my phone that says " the URL you are requesting is not found on this server".  Pics and videos have been deleted too.

    I recently had to swap out my iphone 4s and I am having problems restoring photos and videos from icloud.  When I restored my phone from icloud, half of my pics and videos have been deleted, the pics that were restored on my phone are very blurry, and the videos won't play.  I get a message on my phone that says " the URL you are requesting is not found on this server".  I have erased and reset my phone twice, but every time I do it, more pics and videos are deleted.  I have backed up to icloud and iphoto, however, some of the pics are no longer on iphoto either.  Is there someway to get the videos to play on my phone again?  Make the photos not as blurry as they are now and to restore the pics and videos that have been lost?  I really would love to have them back, this phone is supposed to be the best and right now it doesn't seem to be.  Please help if you can.

    I too have noticed that once i restored from iCloud. Pictures blurry and videos wont play!
    Need help too!!

  • My iphone 4s is rapidly switching back and forth from wifi to 4g

    Hey! My iPhone 4S is rapidly switching back and forth from wifi to 4G. It will remain connected to wifi for about 10 seconds and switch to 4G for half a second. Then the cycle repeats. It's definitely been a drain on my battery. I've already switched wifi off and on, reset network connections on the phone, and rebooted my wifi and router. None of these have helped. When wifi is off, the 4G works fine. The wifi works in other locations, but my home network is not working. However, all other wireless devices in my home are working fine. Seems like a problem between my phone and the wifi. 

    Everything you've mentioned points to an issue with the home Wi-Fi.
    Try forgetting the connection in Settings > Wi-Fi.
    Restart the device and then connect to the Wi-Fi.

  • How do I keep my iPad from switching back and forth from my Apple ID to my husbands Apple ID?

    How do I keep my iPad from switching back and forth from my Apple ID to my husbands Apple ID?

    Your question confuses me because there is no way that the iPad can switch Apple ID's without user input. Where are you seeing evidence of this?
    If you are seeing app updates that require your husbands ID, that's because those apps were purchased with his ID and will always require his ID and password for updates.
    If you are seeing his ID elsewhere, explain....

  • Admin Console not displaying new Users and Groups from LDAP

    We created a new Realm in WebLogic, which specifies the location of the Netscape
    LDAP server. Our Weblogic application, called TGSLC, is able to find the ldap
    server to use for authentication. My problem is this- the Admin Console is not
    displaying the new users and groups from the LDAP server. Shouldn't the WebLogic
    Admin Console display any users and groups specified in the ldap server, which
    is referenced in the customized Realm?

    Hi Andy,
    I am not sure why you are unable to see the users and groups through the
    console., you should be able to. Can you post the config.xml?

  • Issuing certificates for user and clients from different forest/domain

    Hello,
    at first I would like to say that I have made some researches on this forum and in the Internet overall.
    I have AD Forest with ~10 sites all over the Europe, DFL and FFL is 2008 R2, right now we are migrating site by site from old domain (samba) to AD.
    Last time I have deployed PKI based on offline root CA and 2 Enterprise acting as 2-node Failover Cluster.
    Everything in my AD Forest is OK, I mean, autoenrollment works perfect for users and computers from my forest, 
    now I need to deploy a certificate (for test) to one web-based pbx server in samba domain, there are no trusts etc. Samba domain as well as AD Forest are working on the same network, with routeable subnets in each site, so there is no problem with connectivity,
    What are possible way to achieve this goal? I mean to issue cert to client from different forest, so that this client is able to validate it, validate certificate chain and renew it when needed?
    I have Installed and Configured CE Web Service and CE Policy Web Service. Now I have configured Enrollment Policies on my virtual machine (being part of different domain), I selected username/password authentication, I am able to request certificate, I can
    see all templates which I should see, but when I try to enroll I got an error:
    (translated from my language)A certification chain processed correctly, but one of the CA certificates is not trusted by the policy provider
    My root CA cert is added to trusted publishers for computer and user node as well.
    What could be wrong? If you have any ideas or questions, please share or ask. 
    Thank you in advance.

    Everything is clear, I have Certificate Enrollment Web Services installed and configured,
    problem is what i get from certutil - TCAInfo

  • Need multiple 'MAIL' Icons.   Have two mail accounts and i want to keep them separate but want to EASILY switch back and forth from the main screen instead of going through, Settings, Mail, and selecting account. Major pain

    Have two mail accounts and i want to keep them separate but want to EASILY switch back and forth from the main screen instead of going through, Settings, Mail, and selecting account. Major pain the butt.  This has been a request from Apple users for many years.    it's great you can now combine all emails into one, but some people want them kept separate and have separate icons on the main page.   They could easily do this by having one "MAIL" account as white and another red.  Or put MAIL 1 and MAIL 2.    Or an actual label that the mail accounts are called on the ICONS!!  
    Help!

    ...I could switch back and forth between accounts while in the mailbox, with one button.  I think that is what you are referring to?  Whoever said it's just a simple switching - you obviously haven't had the pleasure of using an Android device.  It's not that quick to go back and forth - definitely not efficient...
    Not that it matters a lot, Android vs iPhone interface is largely a matter of personal preference and what you know... I'm not sure which one you're saying is not efficient...
    In any event...
    I currently have two email accounts setup.  My iPhone main page Mailbox settings reads:
    Mailboxes
    Inboxes
    All Inboxes
    Gmail
    [email protected]
    Accounts
    Gmail
    [email protected]
    I wish there an efficient way to move back and forth while in the "Inbox" between accounts.  Also, Why does one gmail account show as "Gmail" and another as the actually address?
    The names are based on the names you gave the accounts when you set them up.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap the account you want to re-name. Go to the "Description" field and put in what ever you want.
    Second, there is no way to quickly choose a bunch of emails to delete. I have to manually go into each one and move it to the Trash folder.
    If you tap the edit button in the upper right while in mail, you can select multiple items to move, delete or mark (flag).
    I don't want any of the condescending remarks, that I've read here and in other forums.  I'm honestly looking for a solution, which I think you are too!  One thing I realized is that iPhone users in these forums are really defensive and quick to say "that's how it is, live with it, if you don't like it go away"  Um...the only thing that tells me is you are pretty bitter and have kept telling yourself that, to force yourself to like your device.  I prefer to express my issues, and find solutions.  There is ALWAYS a solution...
    I think what you will find is that many people here, myself included, tend to get a bit short with people who start off with attacks or whining about how something has been asked for for years and should be easy, rant about things that have already been beaten to death multiple times in the forums, talk about how much better Android or BB are at something (really... if it's that much better, why did they buy an iPhone to begin with?), etc., or continue to ask questions that could easily be answered with a simple search, or even just by looking back at the last dozen posts to the forum, half of which probably asked the EXACT SAME question.
    I don't think any of us go out of our way to be rude or uncivil.  That said, attacking the people who are attempting to help you is much more likely to generate a response of 'if you don't like it, go away', than it is to generate something that will be truly helpful.

  • Getting a list of users and permission from a folder

    I run this command to get a a list of users and permission from a folder
    $project_folder = "\\servername\foldername"
    get-acl $project_folder | %{ $_.Access  } | ft -property IdentityReference, AccessControlType, FileSystemRights > folder.csv.
    This only lists information for 1 folder.
    If i have multiple folders how should the code be modified?

    this is the code i am looking for 
     $project_folder
    = "\\servername\foldername\foldername1"
    get-acl $project_folder | %{ $_.Access  } | ft -property IdentityReference, AccessControlType,
    FileSystemRights > folder.csv.
    I  run this code and this gives me the information for only the folder 'foldername1'.
    Ex. i need a list of users who have permmission in \\servername\foldername\foldername2.
    i run the code and it gives me the permissions and list of users in foldername2.
    This is the issue
    IF there are multiple folders \\servername\foldername\foldername2, \\servername\foldername\foldername1,
    i need to run the code each time for 1 folder. 
    is there a command where i can combine the path of these 2 or more folders and export
    it to csv
    Ex.  $project_folder

    "\\servername\foldername\foldername2"
    get-acl $project_folder | %{ $_.Access  } | ft -property IdentityReference, AccessControlType,

    This will give me the list of users and the type of access they have in foldername1 and
