Unable to access data after running disc repair

I ran disc repair today as there is a problem with the hard drive. On restart the computer is displaying a login page. I have never had to login and now I cannot access any of my files or applications. How can I access my data?

As long as the report ends up with 'Permissions repair complete' then, as far as permissions go, you are fine. You can ignore the various statements in the report:
Permissions you can ignore on 10.5 onwards:

Using 'should be -rw-r--r-- , they are lrw-r--r--' as an example, you will see the that the permissions are not changed, but the | indicates a different location. This is because an update to Leopard onwards changed the location of a number of system components.

TS3992 My Icloud back up shows huge amount of data stored from back up yet listed as incomplete. Unable to access data. Is data lost

My ICloud backup shows a huge amount of data stored, yet it is listed as incomplete backup. I am unable to access the backed up data. Is the data lost?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Unfortunately, if an iCloud backup is incomplete you can't access any of the data in it. The only way to access anything in the backup is to restore the entire backup, which can't be done if it is incomplete.

Unable to access ea4500 after making it have static IP

Please, first note that ive successfully done this in the past but had to do a factory reset for some reason and can no longer do this simple task.
All I want to do with my ea4500 is assign it a static IP and access it after doing so. But, no matter how many times I try, I cannot enter its IP address in the address bar and see its settings. I change its IP to
192 168 1 200. Subset 255... DG 192 168 1 1 DNS same.
Under router address 192 168 0 1
I CANNOT access this router at 192 168 0 1 at all. The thing is, the **bleep** settings are not any different the. How they were when it was WORKING. I literally took a screenshot of my setting in case a scenario like this would come up, yet it more problems arise. The only way I can access the router is by doing a factory reset and accessing it at 192 168 1 1. Can someone please help me understand why this is happening and how to fix it? I am using the classic firmware.
Solved!

I guess maybe check out that link I gave you in previous post. It's easy to make a mistake when cascading routers.

OpenScript compatibility & unable to open instance after running test scrip

I have an open SR with Oracle (sr#3-6909979251).
We purchased OATS (Test Manager and Open Script) and we also pay for oracle support. After I run test scripts, I have issues opening the instance that test scripts run against. For example, I run them in our PreProduction environment, after I run all 100+ test scripts, I try to log into PreProduction as usual (without using open script or even having it open), and at the point where the form would typically open - I get an error message instead (which I have attached to the SR). This happens after I run scripts. Noone else has the problem, and I am the only one that has OpenScript loaded on my machine, and it always happens after running test scripts, so it must be related to OpenScript some how.
In the SR, they are implying that its because OpenScript is not compatible with EBS 11i. That can't be the issue...can it? And if it is, if I install the new OpenScript R12 to run against EBS 11.5.10.2?
I can't seem to find what versions OpenScript is compatible with on MOS>Compatibility.
Any thoughts on this or has anyone else had issues opening their EBS instance after running test scripts?

I was playing around with my profile settings and comparing them to other users. I had a value in ICS: Forms Launcher, but the other admin person did not. I removed that link, now the instance FINALLY (after over a month of issues) opens without a problem.

I think you will have to look at the access restrictions on the Universe Folder and the Report itself, in the CMC. It would appear that your security rights did not migrate successfully.

Unable to access data/storage space of failed primary partition after internet recovery

Hello,
So just a bit of quick background info to the issue: I experienced my first major failure with my iMac a few weeks ago (early Feb) where the main partition on my 3TB Fusion drive developed a corruption of some sort. I went through all the disk verification/repair procedures I could find, however nothing worked and I ended up with a grey screen on bootup that had a round logo with a slash through it. I tried a reinstall of OS X Yosemite from the recovery partition, however this failed part-way through, and I was forced to perform an internet recovery instead.
This worked, and I now have my iMAC stable again, however the recovery process created a new primary partition in addition to the old primary partition. This wasn't a major issue for me as I planned to recover some files from the failed partition that my backups had missed. Unfortunately since then, that old partition has disappeared and I can't get it back. I figure I have lost those files, but what is really annoying is the space that old partition took up has not freed up. My 3TB fusion drive is only letting me use 120GB of the space (the size of the new primary partition).
So I guess I have two questions:
1 - Is there a way to find and get the old partition back mounting again? The drives that list with a 'diskutil list; echo; diskutil cs list' command are attached, but do not appear to contain the old partition that I am after (I've tried manually mounting them via the terminal to check).
2 - If recovering that old partition is not possible, how do I go about freeing up the space it occupied?
System details:
OS X Yosemite v10.10.2
Mac (27-inch, Late 2012)
Processor: 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory: 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Any assistance on this one would be greatly appreciated - I can't restore all my files from backups as I am running low on HDD space.
Cheers,
Nick

Hi Eric,
See attached screen shot - is that what you are after?
As you can see I don't have access to the rest of the 3TB fusion drive. I'm thinking I may have to do a clean OS install so I have prepared a Yosemite USB install key ready to go.
Unless you guys can suggest something that is.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Nick

Missing Keychain Access data after repair.

Hey!
I encountered hardware problems and took the 2012 MacBook Pro 13-inch, and had it fixed.
But after I got back the device, a great deal of my essential data stored in Keychain Access are missing, mostly, website credentials.
I'm sure the data should be stored on the hard drive, but can't figure out how to access/restore that data, so please let me know if you know a way.
The MacBook uses OS X Mavericks 10.9.4.
Thanks.

Unfortunately the backups I have predate the information I need. Seems like hardware change will affect the Key Chain Access.

Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

Can you reliably erase data after HDD disc i/o error?

My HDD has failed with disc i/o error on my 24" Intel based iMac.
Does any one know if Disc Utility can reliably erase data despite the hard drive failure?
I'm in the process of disposing my iMac and want to make sure all my data is securely erased before doing so. Otherwise, I'll need to resort to physically removing the drive.
Thanks!

If you zeroed the disk using the security option (which you did) and it succeeded, then the bad sectors were likely remapped to spare sectors. However, you might want to check it periodically to see if the drive continues to develop bad sectors. If it does it's actually likely a mechanical failure in the process of developing.
I use a product called Scannerz to test my drives, and the repair procedure they recommend is to do what you've done but using only a single zeroing pass. After such an event occurs they recommend testing the drive periodically at increased intervals for a while to verifiy that more sectors aren't going bad. If they are it apparently indicates bearing wear and either the platter is wobbling enough to cause the heads to crash onto the platter or the bearings in the actuator arm are going bad with the same result. They have a fair amount of information on their web site at:
http://www.scsc-online.com
either in their how-to section or in the downloads section. I know I remember reading this stuff there but I don't remember which document or how-to article had the information.

I tried upgrading to MountaIN lION HOWEVER i WASNT ABLE TO Install. I then tried reinstallling Snow leopard but once again it will not let me install stating there are errors on the disc. I have run disc repair on disc utility but it wont allow me

I was told to reinstall Snow leopard which I did . More troubles! It then came up cannot iinstall as there are errors. Tried going into disc utilities and repair but once again it stated iin red I cannot proceed. can anyone help me here. Before this was happening my system was slowing right down with the beach ball making an apearance after tapping the mouse or typing text.

So you are trying to reinstall Snow Leopard?
In order to do that, you need to erase your hard drive - you cannot go back to an earlier system without erasing. Make sure you back up your files first. Then insert the Snow Leopard install disk, and restart while holding down the C key. If that does not work, insert the install disk, go to System Preferences > Startup Disk and highlight the install disk > click on restart.
Once you are booted into the install disk, go past the language selection and then to Utilities in the menu bar. Use Disk Utility to repair the drive (just in case), erase it and then install. After that, eject the disk and update to the latest 10.6.8.

Unable to access iPhoto after installing iLife 06

I installed iLife 06. After doing so, my iPhoto folder cannot be accessed. I get a message saying "There is a problem accessing 1 or more files in iPhoto library folder. In the Finder, select iPhoto library folder. Choose File >Get Info. Make sure you have read and write permissions for the folder and then apply this setting to all enclosed items." I have done this, but I still can't get it to open. Any ideas?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.6)

susieslp:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. That has happened to a number of users for some unknown reason. Try the following: download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, substituting your account name for mine. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field. Good luck.

Can't access data after name change of account in Time Capsule

I started using Time Capsule (TC). After transferring data to 3 different accounts. I noticed that the process of entering/ connecting to your account takes to much time. You have to connect every time to the account on TC. Because of this I changed the account names in the Airport Utility to shortened two lettre names. Unfortunately with great negative impact!
I cannot access any data anymore. The new accounts are empty although I can see that there is still data on my TC because the available disk has not changed.Changing accountnames looks like you are creating new ones and blocking the access to the old ones.
1) How can I retrieve the data?
2) Can you create a 'super account' which can access all data of all accounts?

How do you reset?
Hi..
What I wrote is my experience.. there is other opinions out there.
See https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2280
What I experienced was that applying user profiles over existing files resulted in nothing being visible.
But I am eggs spurt by self appointment only.. test everything.. hold to what is right.. reject the nonsense I will on occasion (unwittingly) spout.
To answer your questions.. press the reset button for 1sec will reset all user profiles to default. A longer press and it will get rid of them completely.. You will go back to default settings.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3728
The no user profile option is device password.. or disk password.. when you press reset it will return to device password.. that is the default.
Try what the reference above suggests.. but in my experience you cannot apply user profiles after copying material and still access it.

Unable to Access Data Form with Users Provisioned as 'Planner'

Hello,
I am currently experiencing an issue that I can't seem to resolve. I was hoping someone else might have some insight and/or have come across this issue.
I created two data forms. Users have been assigned permissions to the dimensions included in the data form. I have also assigned users access to the data form. The model is a single currency model.
Upon logging into the application, the user is unable to open the data form unless he/she is provisioned as an 'Administrator'. Provisioning the user as a 'Planner' or 'Interactive User' does not allow the user to open the data form. The following message appears:
*"Security and/or filtering has resulted in a required dimension not being represented on this data form."*
My data form uses the following dimensions:
POV: ELEMENT
PAGE: SCENARIO, YEAR, VERSION, ENTITY
ROWS: ACCOUNT
COLUMNS: PERIOD
We are currently implementing Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.0. The operating system is Windows Server 2008 64-bit R2.
Any advice/suggestions on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Corey

I went ahead a created a data form that just used level 0 members and confirmed that the user had access to the members defined in the form. Still no luck.
I also checked to make sure the filters existed in Essbase. Here is what I found in Essbase:
Access: None
Member Specification: @IDES("Account"),@IDES("Scenario"),@IDES("Version"),@IDES("Entity"),@IDES("NTTA_ELEMENT")
I have no issues accessing the data through the Essbase Add-in.
I did notice some additional items in my Planning setup:
1. Task>Manage Process - Sub-Status states 'Failed' when I attempt to validate
2. Task>Manage Process - Status changes from 'Not Started' to 'Under Review' when I start the cycle.
3. Dimension Security - Users are attached to a group that has write access at the Descendent(Inclusive) level.
4. In the Account, Department, Scenario and Version dimensions I also setup the user to have write access at the member level.
As for my earlier post with the data forms, that was just my way of showing the dimensions used. I do have two data forms, 1) with top level and descendants/children and 2) with level 0 members only.
I checked the logs and there isn't really much info there. I have a case open with Oracle and a webex scheduled for tomorrow.
Thoughts?
Thanks
Corey

Unable to access internet after reactivationg iPhone 4

I recently had to have another device on my Sprint account reactivated on my phone number in order to have some repairs done so that I could give the phone to another user on my account. When I had my iPhone 4 reactivated on my line, I was not able to access the internet. I have completed all of the troubleshooting steps provided by the carrier, with the exception of a master reset and I still receive the error message that says: "You are not subscribed to a cellular data service." The store agent said the only fix was to do a master reset. My only concern is that I will lose all of the downloaded music content on the device as it was not purchased from iTunes. Any suggestions????
