Unable to log in due to FileVault error

1) I am just more capable with computer issues than a cave-dwelling Luddite so I will apologize in advance as I'm sure the problem is my fault & I am desperate.
2) I am the only account on my computer & I have admin privileges
3) I'm sorry if I ramble but I want to make sure I give enough info to tailor this question to my specific problem
    In 2008, My MBP came with Snow Leopard.  I'm almost positive I created my account with the account name & short name Chocolime. I have since changed the account name (the name I use for my HD icon & the name that appears next to my house icon) to Psychosquint. I am not computer savvy but I am OCD & have to click on all settings & preferences to see what I can do (this is my first Apple product). I obviously turned FileVault on.
    I'm not sure when or why (even tho based on other posts, it's an encryption/decryption thing!?)...but I noticed that my HD was almost at full capacity (320gb) but all I use my computer for is web surfing & iTunes (max 100gb of media). I feel like I noticed this when I downloaded the Lion upgrade to my computer from the apple store. At some point I noticed in System Preferences, that now I have Legacy FV & FV. I turned FV on.
     I started having to restart my computer anytime I deleted a significant amount of trash in order for my computer to show the correct space available (the amount shown when I right click my HD icon (the only icon on my screen) and select get info
    I turned FV off, but was told I needed 245gb of space to turn off Legacy FV. I have to continually manage the media on my computer to have 10gb available for use, so Legacy FV is still on
    Over the years, I notice that altho my user name is now Psychosquint, sometimes I would see a path file?! that always still had username chocolime (e.g. when shown where a file would download to. So I had the brilliant idea to fix this. I search this forum & found that I could go to System Preferences--Users, right click my name and change chocolime to psychosquint. I did that in both lines where chocolime was the name. I was prompted that changing this could mess up something if the name didn't match my home folder name or something, but I'm the only user & I checked that my folder was labelled psychosquint (all lowercase) & I clicked ok. I was told that I had to restart my computer to take effect & BLAMMO...now I can't log in
Started up in recovery mode. Reinstalled Lion, no change
Started up in recovery mode. Used Disk Utility to repair disk, got a green message that all was ok. Now am in the process of reinstalling Lion again (I know the definition of crazy is doing things over & over expecting different results  )
     So I would just find someone to wipe my computer & start from new as I don't have any programs installed that couldn't be re-downloaded but.....wait for it....here's my second conundrum:
   I have an app call Quickreader.  Within iTunes, when my ipad mini is plugged in so the apps tab is available, of you scroll down...this app shows up in File Sharing (I think that's the name). It's the place where you can add files.  I've got thousands of books saved. I would like to be able to save them to an external HD if I can.
   I also have an app called Comic Zeal. It's a digital comic book reader. I have approx. 40gb of comics saved here...but not on my HD. In File Sharing, my comics are stored in a blue folder (it's just there, I didn't make it) as one huge file. They import individually but then just automatically get absorbed into this blue folder icon that gets bigger or smaller as I add or delete comics from my mini. I can't save to an external HD as I get an error that I'm timed out. I would somehow like to salvage these as well.
    Is there a way to back up an iTunes backup to an external HD to keep these internal files? When I looked in Finder to see the size of iTunes, it says 44gb. This doesn't seem right as the comics take up approx. 40gb on my mini & I have approx. 30gb more used for music, movies & apps.
    I'm sure I've completely confused you guys & you're probably laughing, sneering, jeering, etc at me for playing in the deep end of the pool within knowing how to swim, but I'm drowning & I would greatly appreciate any lifelines you could throw me!!!

    A security feature of OSX. It encrypts your entire home folder.
    See: [Mac OS X 10.6 Help: About FileVault|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8727.html]

  • Can't Log in because of FileVault error

    I have just installed the "Mac OS X Snow Leopard" and restarted my computer and I get the following message.
    Your home folder, which is portected by FileVault, didn't open. it needs to be repaired.
    To repair the folder and continue logging in, click OK. to log in as a different user, click Cancel Login.
    I then push OK then this comes up.
    You are unable to log in to the user account "myname" at this time
    Logging in to the account failed because an error occurred.
    I have only the one account on this computer.
    It was letting me "Disk Utilities" menu just before the installation by holding "c" while starting up the computer but that isn't happening now. When I was in "Disk Utilities i verified disk for the hard drive but everything was ok. If I can't access the computer does that mean everything on it is lost?

  • Unable to log into Facebook. Script errors stacking up. Tried everything...syntax errors, script errors stacking up in error logs

    Alittle over a month ago, started intermittently experiencing problems logging into Facebook. Sometimes it would work, other times nothing..just the dreaded 'circle of no progress'..I have tried everything from clear cache to clicking my heels together..I am now at my wits end. I cannot be the only one? I see everything from syntax errors to declaration dropped errors in the error console. When I get pissed enough, I am suddenly allowed to log in, but then I get stuck in facebook, if I stay in there too long, unable to navigate.

  • Unable to log on with apple ID - error message "an unknown error has occurred"

    When I try and log on to apple website using my apple ID, I get an error message saying "an unknown error has occurred".  How can I fix this?
    I've changed my password several times and was able to successfully make a purchase from Itunes using new password, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

    For whatever reason, I can now log in to the apps store with one of  my ids. It says my other account no longer exists so I can not update pages and numbers. It will not let me rebuy these programs under the working account because my computer recognizes that I bought them before.

  • Can't log in due to 502 error

    Symptom
    Cause
    The training instance (environment, server, etc.) is not running, most likely because it was shutdown due to inactivity.
    Fix
    Start the instance on the master-slot deployment system.
    Preventative
    Access the environment every 2-3 days to avoid shutdown.

    With as many people that have this same issue, I am very surprised that support is still sleeping at the wheel.  Some of the suggestions border on the absolute absurd (e.g. create new user account, check the system clock, etc.).  I've tried them all, including exclusion from AVAST, resetting router, etc etc etc.  iCloud status shows all green.
    As the owner of a software development company, I find it hard to believe Apple, of all support, has been unable to get this issue resolved once and for all.  It would certainly make sense, as well, to collate this issue into a single thread instead of bouncing users off the moon and back.
    I spent 1/2 day on the phone with Apple support trying to get iTunes to backup and was promised a call back from the next tier of support.  That was 4 months ago and I still haven't been able to backup my iphone 4S.  I've never seen software that is more kludgy and unreliable with every passing upgrade (sorry, but it's the truth)!
    After two years of not being able to back up my phone, I am considering going to a more reliable platform.  After 6 years on the Apple bus, maybe it's time to get off.

    Anyone else see this error message?  Rebooted, checked disc, etc.  Other catalogs open just fine, but this is my main/current catalog.

    OS 10.9.5
    Using an external GTech drive for LR catalog and raw files.
    I fortunately back up each time I close LR, so I used the last backup and was able to load the catalog. Looks like the last import didn't make it, but I recovered the files from the camera card.
    Looks like I am ok, but it is unnerving to say the least. I'd love to know what caused it, so that I avoid the minutes of terror before I figured out the work around.
    Backup, backup, backup.
    Thanks for responding, Geoff.

  • Lightroom V3 unable to import catalogue due to unknown error

    Mac OS X 10.6.4
    I have Lightroom V2.6 and V3 beta 2. I have just purchased Lightroom V3 upgrade.
    I installed Lightroon V3 and upon first start up imported my V2 catalogue (only one catalogue on V2 exists) - this has worked fine.
    I also have a single catalogue on V3 beta 2 that I need to import.
    V3 began importing Lightroom catalogue V3 (beta 2) but stopped with the following message:
    Lightroom could not import this catalogue because of an unknown error.
    I understand from trawling these forums that Lightroom V3 may have a bug in relation to importing duplicate files from previous catalogues but in my case I cannot see any files or folders that have been imported from Lightroom V3 beta 2 - the majority of the folders or files catalogued in V3 beta 2 have never been catalogued in Lightroom V2.
    Any ideas for a fix?

    It'sa bug. Duplicate folders prevent the import. You'll have to wait for 3.1 along with the rest of us.
    The folks at Adobe know about it, but you can file a bug report if you wsh.

  • Unable to upgrade iTunes due to network error, wont read .msi file

    Hi
    I'm trying to upgrade iTunes on my windows PC and during the installation I get an error message saying "A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file C:\windows\installer\itunes.msi".  Also when I plug my ipad in to the PC to synch with itunes - it will not read the ipad until I have updated the itunes.
    Help please.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Unable to launch Lightroom due to an error message.

    yesterday Lightroom was working fine.  Now I get this error message everytime I try to start Lightroom. - Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit.  I tried reinstalling Lightroom to no avail.  I cannot use Lightroom.  What happened?  How do I fix this?

    Hallo Kaethe Ko,
    The previews folder can grow quite big without any problems.
    Mine is ca. 115 GB, for a catalog of 113'000 images and 1.6 GB size of the lrcat-file.
    That works pretty fine.
    So you might have had a corruption problem. Of course this should not happen. For such catalog-preview-sizes it would be really inconvenient, as recreation by LR would take a week running in the background.
    Hopefully your overall catalog size was not that big that the previews-recreation will take so long.

  • Unable to edge up due to website error

    I am attempting to edge up two lines on my plan, and keep receiving the following error:
    There was an error with one of our systems and we're working on it now. We're sorry for the inconvenience. Please try again in a few minutes.
    Any chance of getting this resolved?  I've cleared my cookies, cache, and tried this on other devices and even from my work computer (at a different location, and on a different network).  We are looking forward to our new phones, and this is extremely frustrating.  We have been trying to edge up for 3 days now, and keep receiving this error.

    I am receiving an error message, immediately after clicking "Edge Up".  The message says (as stated in the first post):
    There was an error with one of our systems and we're working on it now. We're sorry for the inconvenience. Please try again in a few minutes.
    This has been the message I receive for several days now.
