[Solved]Weird bar in Gnome log in screen.

I have been running the Arch with Gnome3 for a while and I'm loving Arch. However, recently I'm seeing this weird bar under my name in log in screen. Any solution to that?

You're partly correct here. They didn't have this in earlier versions. However this isn't a seperator but an indicator showing which user is selected.
If there's only one user account, this one is now preselected. Before the change you couldn't just simply hit enter and type your password, instead you needed to manually select the user first, which was a big hassle (for me at least).

As gnome shell themes are dependend on the user extension which needs to be enabled specifically, I don't think it is possible to set it globally. It won't theme the login screen anyway, because gdm does use its own theme which is kinda inspired by the default shell theme. However you can change some options (i.e. background image) using gdm3setup (AUR).

Weird Lion log-in screen.

Hello!
Last month I upgraded my MacBook Pro to Lion. It's been amazing, but there seems to be one issue that I am having. When I first upgraded, I got the new lon-in screen Like this one, http://tinyurl.com/6n26t88 . A few days ago I started getting this new log-in screen where I'm required to type in my full name and password. Like here, http://tinyurl.com/6ths2yv . I'm not sure if I may have messed with a setting, but having to type in my full name and password gets old after a few times. If anyone could help that would awesome. Thank you!

Have you not just got your settings set for "name and password", under System Preferences -> Users and Groups -> Login Options -> "Display login window As"? You can choose either "List of users" or "Name and password", whicever you prefer.
Regards

How to keep monitor from returning to log-in screen?

HP Touchsmart 610 with Windows 7: When watching a movie, how can I prevent the monitor from returning to the log-in screen every few minutes?

Hello michin:
           Welcome to HP forum. Wow this is not supposed to happen. Lets start with sleep mode setting to begin with. Left click your mouse any where on your screen. Goto personalize click it. Click on screen saver icon. Change the wait time 20+ minutes. Then right below that click on Change power settings. Next window under Select a power plan select high performance. On the left side click on Choose when to turn off display. Next window set the settings like this:
          Dim the display                    10 minutes     Click on upside triangle to this.
       Turn off the display               15 minutes
         Put computer to sleep            Never
        Adjustment plain brightest      Move slider to far right Maximum. You can still use the dimmer keys afterwards.
       Click save changes. Now close out all opened windows. Finished.
       Now we have to figure out why your computer media is allowing for shutting down. Lets try running a pc tune up and than we will run disk defragmenter and disck clean up and see if this resolves the media issue. Open up HP Support Assistant. Click on maintain. Click on Tune up. Next window click on view settings. Next window click on Click here to display (Bar).....
Put a ckeck mark in all display boxes check mark apply then click on OK. Next window click on Tune up now.
        After this is completed close it out. Now goto accessories then click on system tools Cick on disk defragmenter click on Analyzed disk then when it finished click or Defragment disk. When finished close it.
        Now go back and open up disk clean up. Click on Ok and follow directions given. Hopefully this will fix the issue. If not then you need to tell up what program you were using so we can help reinstall it again.

[SOLVED] DWM running with gnome difficulties - cracked leaving GNOME!

UPDATE: concept as a perceived requirement has been scrubed. No longer needing Gnome's environment ... just some gtk/gnome libraries here and there though, obviously. See last post of mine here if ya like and you're rushed a bit.
Having problems getting gnome to live with DWM though I can compile myself as i just learned how from the wiki.
OBJECTIVE: retain at least the bottom menu bar of gnome (and program access) for a while yet .... while using DWM.
Hi... having the most amazing time with Xmonad, awesome, stumpwm, dmenu etc.
At this point I've realized that Xmonad and DWM have basically the same keybinding.
For how it work WELL, as it's an originator, and keeping it simple ummm.... was it 18k or 180k? hehehe (see other posts about dwm) I'm going to go with dwm for the forseeable future. they're all great though having done the studying it's really a simple decision.... If I wanted to swap to something else later I'd have the skill to know how simple that would be... dwm does cover ALL of what I sensibly need to work quickly and SIMPLY/manageably...
DUE TO UPDATE COMMENT AT TOP - SOME OF THE NEXT COUPLE OF POST IS REDUNDANT a BIT though maybe not:
So... I'm wishing to be able to access my folders and programs through the gnome menu as a fail-safe until I figure out how to get around any gottcha before I reinstall WITHOUT gnome (just some of the libraries obviously for packages that need them)
I really need to get going immediately with DWM and having had lots of fun with Xmonad (works easily with gnome though i like the simplicity of default DWM) ...
ALL I really need is what I now have left of gnome's desktop visibility which is the bottom bar with a menu applet embeded in it...
Actually.... IF there's a way to GRAPHICALLY see folders ie. boot programs without having to find the binary though would be cool.
Gnome can do it's thing in the background.... though right now ALL I can get by adding DWM WITH metacity in the gnome sessions properties leaves me WITHOUT the bootom bar that gets me to my programs...
yep, duh.
any assistance apreciated as I can't stand working without dwm (or similar tiling wm) though I'm too new at it and generally not skilled enough at this move to get to my program's ICONS... using dmenu for all booting just isn't practical for me today.. then again who knows what the next hour will bring! hehehe
So..... ANYONE have DWM code that'll work??? .... I think I'd prefer it to be stock otherwise...
whatver happens thanks and everything's so cool.... have learned SO much....

well as i remember, my own path was something like this...
Windozes -> PCLinuxOS -> (K-X)Ubuntu -> Arch(XFCE4(desktop environment)) -> Arch(Fluxbox(no DE)) -> Arch(wmii+gnu/screen) -> Arch(dwm+gnu/screen)
not talking about GNU/screen its like not talking about breathing to me right now at the beggining (like all i pass throught in GNU/linux) i can barely understand something "as complex" to understand like screen, but using it, showed me that EVERYTHING is a matter of understanding throught direct experience
so i'll recommend to you that you start looking to gnu/screen, is so damn easy to configure/use once you understand it, but difficult when you start reading about it, like dwm is in first place
what i do for file assosiations and such is using midnight commander (cli-file manager) and i edited a menu (F2 on a dir/file) and it popups showing the list of apps that i configured to open that file extension, i configured tuxcmd in the past but i didnt used it for months now...
here's the ~/.mc/menu i did... (i use urxvt as a daemon starting "urxvtd -q -f -o &" in .xinit, you may change "urxvtc" with your terminal emulator of choice... (i hope it will be urxvt(c) and not something like gnome-terminal )

Cast get past log in screen to download from app world

i have an white 8520 and i cant seem to get past the log in screen to download stuff from app world. Its letting me click on download then letting me enter my email and password then its just redirecting me back to the password screen on the phone. I really dont know what is up i was on the phone with o2 for an hour the other trying to solve the problem but it dusnt seem to be happening for me. could someone please try and help me out as i really want to use my app store x thanks

In many cases the BlackBerry ID has not been created successfully and therefore will not let you past that screen.... go to www.blackberry.com/blackberryid and try to create a new BlackBerry ID , and then log in from the device.
Still others have been sucessful by editing to allow ALL permissions for App World.
* Go to Options/Settings > Advanced Options > Applications, (you will see your list of all your apps on your BlackBerry)
* Sroll down to BlackBerry App World, > Click the Menu key > Edit Permissions, and change everything to allow and save it.
Now go back to your App World login and see if it works.

I have a new mac book pro (sept 2014) and am suddenly stuck on the log-in screen. Keyboard input not working to enter my password. Already tried a basic restart and a cmmnd/ cntrl/ pwr troubleshoot to no effect.

I have a new mac book pro (sept 2014) and am suddenly stuck on the log-in screen. Keyboard input is not working to enter my password. Seems to be a log in issue as keyboard works for forced troubleshooting. (And b/c when I first noticed the problem, I was able to enter my log in password but then everything sort of froze. Now, no ability to enter the password.) Already tried a basic restart and a cmmnd/ cntrl/ pwr troubleshoot to no effect.

Will not boot up to log in screen

will not boot up to log in screen when powered up, all I get is a grey screen with apple logo in middle and spinning timer
I have tried resetting SMC
I have tried starting up in Safe Mode (it won't do that either)
I have gotten into disk utility to repair disk
I have tried resetting PRAM
nothing... we are on a network in a school district so my next step is to re-image it but wondering if there is something else I should try first
if not then how do I backup files that are needed before I re-image
thanks, Cindy

Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
Step 1
The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
     a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
Step 2
If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
Step 3
Sometimes a startup failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
Step 4
If you use a wireless keyboard, trackpad, or mouse, replace or recharge the batteries. The battery level shown in the Bluetooth menu item may not be accurate.
Step 5
If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
Step 6
Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can start up now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
Step 7
If you've started from an external storage device, make sure that the internal startup volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
Start up in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know the login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
When you start up in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, the startup volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 11. If you ever have another problem with the drive, replace it immediately.
If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
If the startup process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
Step 8
Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select the startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.
Step 9
If the startup device is an aftermarket SSD, it may need a firmware update and/or a forced "garbage collection." Instructions for doing this with a Crucial-branded SSD were posted here. Some of those instructions may apply to other brands of SSD, but you should check with the vendor's tech support.
Step 10
Reinstall the OS. If the Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
Step 11
Do as in Step 9, but this time erase the startup volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically restart into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer the data from a Time Machine or other backup.
Step 12
This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a startup failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
Step 13
If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

MacBook Pro w/10.6.8 requires me to sign in twice at initial log-in screen before loading

My MacBook Pro w/10.6.8 requires me to sign in twice at initial log-in screen before loading.. In addition, after Safari 5.1.7 has been open for a few hours the browser stops loading pages and then the entire computer freezes and I have to do a forced reboot with the power button. The first push of the power button brings up the four options screen: "sleep, restart, turn off, logout" but they don't work. I have to force shutdown.
I don't have either of these problems from a safe boot. However a boot from a clean "Test" administrator account still requires me to login twice before the desktop loads.
If I login once as either Test or my User Name then choose the " back" button then switch to the other login option before pressig the return key, I only have to login in once at the new login screen.
This problem began after I partitioned my 500GB HD with a 10.6.8 partition--the problem partition-- and a Lion 10.7.4 partition (to avoid iCloud issues with Snow Leopard). The Lion partition does not require double login. I have not done anything yet with the Lion partition except software updates.
I have also been having LCD problems (according to recent Genius Bar visit, not related to the NVIDIA 8300 problem). Sometimes (every 2-3 times I start the MBP) the MBP will reboot but the screen will be so dark I can't see the cursor and can barely see the desktop. The brightness is set at max and pressing the buttons up/down don't affect the dark screen. Usually I restart and the screen appears normal. This problem occurs with Safe, Test and User Name boots.
Thanks for any suggestions

I have the same issue and eventually revirted to logging in web wise to emails and have found that its not so bad- but the moment app wants to access mail it slows down and have had had issues again.
I know that Mac products when accessing emails have a tendancey to semi download images- and was told that this can be the issue by a friend( not sure how rellable this is) but have noticed a coralation between the two factors.
I know that there are issues with hotmail when on certain devices ( had the warning form hotmail's site)- but still have yet to be shown how to remove my email from Mail- if yo have any ideas I might try it.
Please if you have any advice of how to remove main email that would be great and it may be a option for you.

I have weird pixelly artefacts showing on my screen...

Can anyone tell me what is going on with my iMac?
I have weird pixelly artefacts showing on my screen.
The attached picture shows a particularly bad portion of a screen grab of this, taken in Safari whilst browsing a website.
The lines and blocks flicker like crazy. They're not moving around, and where they appear, they stay flickering in that spot – BUT if I move the browser window, then weirdly the flickering lines and blocks follow along with the window.
If I flip to a different application, then the flickering lines and blocks might move to a different location, or they might disappear altogether, or there might be more of them or there might be less of them. It's all very random.
Also, as you can see, for some reason I have lines appearing over a dark section where there is an image, and I have blocks appearing over a light section where there is no image.
It can be seen in any application, be it Safari, the Finder, Photoshop, anything...
Some days it's a little bit, some days it's a crazy amount. It usually disappears totally after a reboot, but then after restarting, the flickering lines and blocks gradually appear over time.
Any help appreciated. Thanks.

You may have inadvertently changed your screensaver timeout, which is a Windows issue rather than a Firefox issue.
Right-click on your desktop in Windows, then select Personalize...
On the bottom right of that screen you will see a link for Screen Saver, click that. There you can set your options for your screensaver.

2 log in screens?

Ever since I upgraded to OS X Yosemite, whenever I boot up my computer I have to log in twice. The only difference is the first log in screen has an orange circle with a tick/check in it. After that I get a loading bar to show it's booting up, which I never had before as well, and then it takes me to the 2nd log in screen. Does anyone else have this issue and do you know whether it's normal or how to fix it?
thanks

Do you have FileVault enable? FileVault requires that you unlock the drive before it will allow you to boot. Then you get to login to the account you wish to use.

Hello,
I recommend you contact AT&T's dedicated BB Support staff (call their front line, request escalation to BB Support) and have them check to be sure that your account with them is correctly configured for this device. Sometimes when switching devices things don't fully automatically move behind the scenes, and only they (ATT) can validate that.
Good luck and let us know!

Blank "Log In" screen pops up randomly

On my iPhone 4S, a blank screen, with a header bar that says "Log In" and "http://www.apple.com" above that, has been popping up randomly, usually shortly after opening an app. Even if I let it sit there, it never loads anything–it just stays white. It's got a Cancel button on the upper right, and after I click that, everything continues as normal, but the screen popping up is getting quite annoying since it usually happens several times a day. Anyone know what's causing this or how to fix it?

This happens to me also. It starting popping up when I tried to log into AT&T wifi outside my work office. We have an AT&T corporate office below us. When I saw that there was no passcode for the wifi I click on it and ever since then that windows just pops up everytime I go outside for break or lunch. I just hit cancel each time.
It's a pain but haven't figured out the solution yet.

Can't Log In through log on screen!!

Hi, I've been having a problem with my iBOok G4, i restarted it the other day and when it came back on, it goes to the log on screen for maybe 10 seconds then goes to a Darwin screen. After maybe another 30 seconds it goes to a blue screen with the wheel spinning. What can I do to get back to my desktop, I have finals on Thursday and can't get my notes off. Help please!!!

Hi lszwik,
You have a couple of options.
1) Most preferable, if you have another Mac accessible with a firewire port, you can connect the two in target disk mode. This will allow you to pull data off of your iBook G4 even if you can't boot it to the Mac OS X desktop.
Here is a great article on using Target Disk mode via firewire:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
2) If you have a Mac OS X 10.4 install disc, you can boot from that disc by holding down C right after powering up your computer. You can run Disk Utility from that 10.4 install disc to "Repair Permissions" and "Repair Disk"
CAUTION though - if at all possible, please back up using Firewire Target Disk Mode listed in Option #1. Your drive sounds like it is in a fragile state.
3) If #2 does not work, reinstall Mac OS X from the install disc and choose "Archive and Install" option. This will keep your files and user settings intact.
This article shows you how to select archive and install:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh1103.html
4) If #3 does not work, you may need to do a full "Erase and Install", also covered in the article above. CAUTION: You must have a backup before selecting this option. You will erase everything on your computer.
Again, finding another Mac user or visiting your local Apple Store's genius bar will be invaluable because you can put the iBook in Target Disk mode and hopefully get your files off before attempting OS X repair.
Please let me know if I can be of any other assistance.
Best,
