I also suddenly have a 'switch user' on my windows logon screen, have files appearing and disappearing, see someone logging in with a temp profile, then a manual
profile, then an automatic profile (created from the profile examples given), logons between midnight and 2am, User Profiles Service 3, 4, 1, 5, 67, 5 and 2 over a 5 minute period at 1:10am on 2/3, etc.
I need to load my husbands PC (I reloaded mine and the problem continued, and need to know how to protect him from this, if necessary.
How do I proceed?

Hi,
Gnerally speaking, the events you list above just sytem service or application need to use system resource, then Event Viewer would record their activity. You can use Filter(filter event ID, such as 4624) to check, you will find plenty of events like new
account logon.
About your another question, you can access to User Managment to check your sytem current user, if there is any other new user has been created.
Win+X, choose Computer Managment, Local Users and Groups

  • HT1918 New user account on same computer, signed in with apple ID, took over my name in iMessage

    On my computer I added a new user account (which is just a different account that I use), and because the setup involved signing in with an apple ID, I used my existing one.
    Now that the new user account has been associated with my old apple ID, basically the name on the new user account has overtaken all my old user accounts, even though I didn't specify that it should do this. After trying multiple methods (via iMessage, System Preferences, iCloud, Apple Support), I've been unable to change my iMessage name back to what it was even on my old user accounts.
    Any ideas? Again, I've been to all the following places with no success:
    - iMessage Preferences / account details
    - Restarting system
    - Changing id on new user account back to previous via System prefs
    - Updating Apple ID via 'Manage Apple ID' area
    - iTunes Store account
    - iCloud.com
    Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions.

  • How can I set up a new user account that has access to iPhoto data on Admin account?

    I have set up a new user account for my son.  I have set up his parental controls but I would like him to have access to the data in iPhoto and iTunes from the Admin account.  I do allow him access to the applications with the parental controls, but they are empty.  Thanks for your help!

    Is your regular user an Admin?
    Yes. So is the new account I tried to set up.
    Are these apps installed in the main /Applications folder?
    Yes.
    Are they App Store apps or installs from disc/download?
    Both, but App Store purchases are a clear minority, and aren't much of a problem, due to the ease of re-downloading and activating. The downloaded programs are the ones that present the problems. I have not been good about archiving serial numbers and the like, mostly because I've never had a problem like this before.
    What specific apps are you having trouble with? For instance, I know that MS Office and Adobe CS5 for perfectly well for all users on my MBP.
    This is a very long list. Let me give you some of it, and if you really need all of them, I'll add to the list later.

    Not much, since I have no idea where the problem is. I looked for some central repository of software serial numbers or activations, but didn't find one.

  • New User Account Name fixed crashing photoshop cs4 with Snow Leopard

    I don't understand why, but creating a new user account fixed the SL/photoshop CS4 crashing issue. I don't have all my settings and shortcuts etc., so its for photoshop only until apple/adobe comes up with a fix.

    Most likely items are:
    Preferences
    Fonts
    Caches
    New user accounts are a great way to isolate user issues from systematic ones.
    You can look above for hints as to where the problem(s) lie.

  • Locked out with file vault. Did fix by setting up new user account but cannot access old account with files                           but I can't get back into my old account with all my doc's and pics

    I managed to get a few Time Machine Back Ups  before I passed away
    I'm not sure whether a ghost can do this, but if you were still alive, you could do as follows.
    First make sure you have read & write access to the folder you're trying to restore to. You should be able to see its contents in the Finder, and to move files in and out of it.
    This is an exception to the rule that you should never make any changes to backup data. I've tested this procedure in OS X 10.8 only. It should work with later versions, but I don't know whether it works in earlier versions. Use it only for files that were backed up from your home folder, or a folder on another volume created by you, and would normally be writable by you. Do not touch backups of system or application files.
    In the Finder (not in the time-travel view), navigate to the backup volume, then to the folder named "Backups.backupdb", and then to the snapshot you want to restore from. The snapshots are folders labeled with the date when they were created. Inside each of those folders is a file hierarchy like the one on the volume that was backed up. Descend through the hierarchy until you come to a folder named "Users," and inside that, a folder with your user name. The procedure will be different if you're trying to restore files on another volume.
    Select the folder and open the Info dialog (command-I). Click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the window and authenticate. In the Sharing & Permissions section, give your account Read & Write access. You may have to close the dialog and repeat this step in order for the change to show up. Then click the gear icon and select
              Apply to Enclosed Items
    from the popup menu.
    Try the restore operation again, in the time-travel interface.

  • IP4 - new user account on Macbook - can't synch with itunes

    I'm hoping someone can help me. I had trouble with my user account on my Macbook, rendering it unusable due to constant paging, so I created a new one, and have been transferring my data across. I find that I can't sync my iP4 (iOS 5.0.1) though. I get this error:
    The iPhone "[device name]" cannot be synced. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation.
    Does anyone have any idea how I can correct this? I can't find anything in the iTunes preferences or context specific menu from the device item in the list to alter access privileges. Nor can I find anything in the phone's settings to correct this. I have rebuilt most of my library manually in iTunes and can back up the phone, but can't sync past 'step 3' as the error crops up at 'step 4' (of 7). This means I can't add new content that I have added to my library.
    Do I have to do a restore and start from scratch? That seems insane, given I have authorised the new user as one of my five computers, and am authenticated as the same Apple ID as the phone.

    Okay, I have fixed this manually (read: laboriously), with permissions changes, file movements, and much exporting from devices and importing to iTunes. What a pain though. Surely it's not meant to be this painful!

  • Can't create new user account....

    Hi- I am trying to create a new user account so that I can see if some of the issues I am having with my G4 Mac also are issues under a different account. I have (several times) created a new account and assigned a password and also tried having no password. Either logging out or using Fast User Switching, I click on the new user icon and either type in the password (I know I have it correct since it's my default password) or not type it in if I have no password set, and click on login. That's when I get the shaking window. No matter what I do, I can't login!! I am at a loss of what to do or what could be causing this. Any help will make me a happy Mac user again! Judy
    PS- After I had this problem surface, I ran Monoligual and got rid of lots of language support and I also ran Font Nuke to clean out some font caches.... but these were run after I had problems setting up a new user account. I was having issues with the new upgrade for my genealogy program, Reunion (still having issues actually-they can't figure out what's causing the problem) and I removed some "things" from Login Items. Can't tell you what they were but I have some there still. I ran Disk Warrior and iDefrag also recently. Also have repaired permissions. The other issue I had (yesterday anyway-haven't used it much today yet) is that Safari was crashing when I was accessing my public library's online catalog............. I don't know if any of these are related to my inability to create a new user account or not but thought I'd throw that into the mix.

    You say a dialog comes up for you to enter a password when you don't have a password while using Fast User Switching. That should not happen.
    If you set up an account without setting the password, Fast User Switching won't bring up the password dialog for that account. Instead, it will instantly switch to that account when you choose it.
    Make sure there is nothing in the password field when you set up the account, or change the password and don't type anything in for either the new or verify fields. It'll ask you to confirm that you don't want a password and "Cancel" will be the default button. Choose the "Ok" button instead.
    That should do it. If not, then I have no idea.

  • Forgot password on my ibook g4 used command s to setup a new user account but now everytime i start it, it starts in setup account how do i fix it

    i have a apple ibook g4 and dont know the password so i  followed the command s directions to enter single user mode and fsk to set up a new user account adter it rebooted       it reboots into new user  setup were  i have followed all the steps and completed them    then a restart is required only evrytime it boots back up im forced to setup again.   i was able to use my ibook before because it logged in at start up but i was able to upgrade or make any real changes because i couldnt remember password 
    so now im even farther from being able to use my ibook    does anyone have a fix  i do not have any disc so cant try that unless you coukd also provide a place to get it 

    Here's one method to reset the password without the install disc:
    1. boot computer and hold the "apple" key and the "s" key.
    2. wait for terminal show
    3. release keys
    4. type without the quotes: "/sbin/mount -uaw"
    5. press enter
    6. type without the quotes: "rm /var/db/.applesetupdone
    7. press enter
    8. type without the quotes: "reboot"
    9. press enter
    This will let you create a new admin account when you reboot your computer.
    Also, without the discs, look at Mac OS X Tip - No Password, No Root, No CD? No Problem.
    http://www.macobserver.com/tip/2003/06/16.1.shtml
    Here is a way to get around not knowing the admin password on Macs.
    To reset your OS X password without an OS X CD you need to enter terminal and create a new admin account:
       1. Reboot
       2. Hold apple + s down after you hear the chime.
       3. When you get text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
              * mount -uw /
              * rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
              * shutdown -h now
       4. After rebooting you should have a brand new admin account. When you login as the new admin you can simply delete the old one and you’re good to go again!

  • New user account not showing access to apps

    I had no problem creating a new user account on my iMac. It showed up with all the basic apps as expected in the dock, and the complete set of apps available in that folder.
    On my iBook G4, I went through the same steps -- far as I can tell -- and the new user account showed none of the apps in the dock. No access to them. I don't have any parental controls on.
    Any idea as to what step(s) I'm evidently overlooking?
    Thanks,
    chuck

    Hello,
    Log into your new user account and then locate this file; com.apple.Dock.plist
    It's here: /Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag that file from the Preferences folder to the Trash, empty the trash and reboot. Log in to the new user account and see if the Dock is there. You can access your applications from the Applications folder, not just the Dock. Double click your MacintoshHD icon on your Desktop, then click Applications... voila!

  • Cannot log in to new user accounts

    I am a long time Apple user and am completely confounded by a problem I am having creating new user accounts on my G4/400 PowerMac running OX 10.4.11. I've been attempting to setup some user accounts for my kids to use. I have no problems setting up the accounts but when I log out of mine and try to log in as them the login window shakes from side to side indicating an incorrect password. This is something that I had a problem a year ago and never solved and today I am trying once again with out success. I feel like I am doing everything correctly since I've been able to do this on my G3 iBook and MacBook.
    Here are a few things I've also done.
    -repaired permissions on the drive ( I have 2 in the machine right now but the other is just my iTunes LIbrary drive)
    -deleted the old user accounts that I setup but couldn't access.
    -tried setting up more new accounts
    -repeated the process several times without ever being able to successfully login to any of the new accounts that I created.
    Any advice to solve this problem would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Chris

    Hi cc_mac,
    I don't know if you have solved this one yet, but I had exactly the same issue when I recently had a hard drive failure and had to re-install everything. I had copies of all my files, but when I went to set up the user accounts, I could create each account, but I couldn't log in.
    There is a simple solution, you will need to be in an admin account and you will need to use the command line, so open up a terminal window.
    Use the following command for each account you need to fix:
    sudo passwd <username>
    where <username> is the account name that you cannot currently log in to.
    You will need to enter your admin password to allow you to use sudo, so do that. Then you will be asked to type in the new password for the new account. Just to be absolutely sure, you will be asked to re-enter the new password, so do that, and you are done.
    Log out of your admin account, this should bring you back to the log in screen. Now, if everything has gone according to plan, you should have an operational user account.
    I'm not sure what the cause of this issue is but it might be some sort of permissions issue happening in the background. Nevertheless, manually setting the password this way seems to have fixed it for me. I sincerely hope this helps you too.
    Kind Regards,
    Mark D.

  • I've created new User account on my PC for separate itunes library/account. Have had to change apple id to do this. When I connect to pc, itunes opens with CDs I've already loaded, but it doesn't recognise ipod. No left panel opens with devices. Help!

    Can anyone help? Two ipods with originally one itunes library and (I think) same Apple id). Now need 2 Libraries with separate account for separate buying etc. Recommended I create new library on separate PC User account which I have done together with new apple id. I have added this apple id to the ipod needing separate account. When I hook up, I can't sync. No 'Devices' left panel appears at all. I'm at a loss here so any help woudl be great. Thanks.

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
    If necessary:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    or
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

  • How do I create a new user account and migrate my data to it?

    I have problem with Adobe Bridge crashing when I exit Camera Raw.  I was advised by my local apple service store to create a new user account and test Bridge using the new account.  It works fine.  So what do I do now?  I don't know what in my account is causing the conflict but assume that the solution might be e newly setup user. 

    Checking the behaviour in another user account is a TEST, not a solution! You don't need to move everything over. Otherwise, every time you get a user account problem, you'll keep moving to a new user account again and again.
    If the problem does not occur in a new user account, then the cause is something IN your user account. This is usually a Preference file. Adobe Bridge seems to crash a lot, and it can usually be fixed by deleting the Bridge folder in <user>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/
    You can also try deleting the Bridge preference file, which will be in <user>/Library/Preferences, and called com.adobe.bridge5.plist (or similar).
    If that doesn't work, you can test removing a whole bunch of the various Adobe files in those folders. You can always put them back if they don't change anything. And you've got a backup, haven't you? ;-)

  • How to move iTunes library to new user account?

    My primary user account on my Mac (I'm the only user but I have an admin account just incase my 1 account ever gets corrupt or something) was operating very slowly and messed up an external hard drive among other problems so I made a new user account which seems to be operating more smoothly.  I've tried to trouble shoot the problems with the old user account but it took a lot less time to just make a new user account.  Anyway, I tried copying over my entire iTunes from older user account to new user account.  When I open iTunes in the new user account, I changed the iTunes folder location in preferences and then restarted iTunes.  None of my playlists or media were showing up in iTunes.  I tried importing the XML file by doing FILE > ADD TO LIBRARY.  I also tried draging the .it file to iTunes.  No luck.  Any ideas?!  I was able to copy my library back to the old account and have everything there but the new account doesn't import all my media/metdata/playlists.  I don't want to re-import my whole library again because I will lose some of the meta-data like play count, ratings, etc.  I've looked at a lot of guides online with no luck.
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

    If you put the entire iTunes folder in the exact same location as it was in your other account it should have opened up intact. There should be no need to change the media file location preferences since this has nothing to do with iTunes looking for your library file which is what it uses to locate everything else.  iTunes will automatically look for the library file in the default location in whatever account is used to invoke iTunes.
    An issue that might arise would be permissions not being set correctly on the files, but then I would have expected iTunes to complain clearly about that.

  • ITunes does not launch with new User Account (Vista)

    One of my limited user accounts on Windows Vista because corrupt, so I created a new limited User Account and copied ALL of the files from the old to new.
    Now, when I try to launch itunes on the new user account, it will not open at all. Itunes works on my administrative account, with no problem.
    Can someone tell me the most pain-free way to resolve this issue. And, whatever solution, will I be at risk of losing my itunes libraries?
    Thank you in advance.

    Hiya. Delayed again. Browsers being cranky. (I blame the aftershocks.)
    It's actually plausible that it was installed in there (by doing a run as administrator on the installer itunes64setup.exe, perhaps). Because that suggests a possible cause for these continual permissions-related problems.
    A lot of what you're seeing is consistent with damaged ACLs (access control lists) on files, folders and registry keys. Although it's a lot rarer than it used to be, one of the ways you could get borked ACLs was if a program (like iTunes or QuickTime) was installed in one user account, and then the user account it had been installed in was deleted (or otherwise rendered unusable).
    We don't know which particular permissions are stuffed up here. But there's a shotgun approach to fixing them which used to work okay, although it's a bit fiddlier to do on a 64-bit system than a 32-bit system.
    I'd strongly recommend setting up a system restore point prior to doing this, so you can revert if things turn to custard.
    The basic technique you follow is from the following blog entry *with one important modification.*
    [Solving setup errors by using the SubInACL tool to repair file and registry permissions|http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2006/09/04/solving-setup-e rrors-by-using-the-subinacl-tool-to-repair-file-and-registry-permissions.aspx]
    The modification is that when you're editing the file to replace YOURUSERNAME with the name of the account, edit the first line so that %ProgramFiles% instead says %ProgramFiles(x86)% and after the line that reads:
    *subinacl /subdirectories %programfiles%\ /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f /grant=users=e >> %temp%\subinacl_output.txt*
    ... add another line saying:
    *subinacl /subdirectories %programfiles(x86)%\ /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f /grant=users=e >> %temp%\subinacl_output.txt*
    (The first is to make sure the commands see the subinacl, because it installs in \Program Files (x86)\ on 64-bit systems, and the second alteration is to make sure that the permissions for the 32-bit program files are fixed too.
    After doing that (it'll take a while to run), can itunes launch normally in the new account?

  • Windows 7 Home Premium problem creating new user account

    I am unable to create a new user account on my Windows 7 Home Premium computer. I have 3 accounts on it already, two are adminstrators, and just trying to add a fourth one (standard user).
    I go to User Accounts, click Create new account, give it a name, keep Standard user checked, and press Create Account. The account appears to get created and shows up on the User Accounts screen, though it shows that it is password protected already, even
    though I didn't have an opportunity to give it a password yet. I can manage that new user account and delete the password, and it then shows up on User Accounts as not having a password.
    When I try to log on as that user from the main logon screen, it prompts me for the password (if I have specified one), but it doesn't accept the password (I've tried defining and using various ones), and I get the message "The user name or password is incorrect".
    If I don't define a password for that account, when I click on the account button to logon, I get that same error message immediately.
    I also noticed that C:\Users doesn't include the new user account folder there. Don't know if that should've been created at this point before logging on for the first time. I also noticed that there's a "Default User" folder that has a lock on the folder
    icon, and I'm not able to open that folder (says it's invalid). There is a "Default" folder there with some content in it and I am able to view it. Don't know if either of these folders act as templates for new users.
    At some point months ago I did have a profile problem with one of the existing accounts, and had to follow some suggestions on repairing that user profile. Don't know if that perhaps has complicated things. The 3 existing user accounts are working fine.
    Any tips on what I can try to get a new account established?
    Thanks, Chuck

    I agree with the same problem and the answer below did not work either.  I tried changing permissions to Users directory and that did not work either.  I even tried creating the directory name of user I wanted to install and that was recognized and
    being used, but will not start a user directory for new user.
