Unable to login as administrator after creating new standard account

Just got a nice new MBP form work today.
When logged in as the admin I created a new standard account for my personal use. I then shut down the laptop.
After booting up I am presented with a default icon, my standard use name, and a field to enter my password. I can login to this account fine. If I click on the arrow next to the username (this seems pretty poor UX - it annoyingly takes a while to appear, and how is a new user supposed to know what it is for? /vent), and then click on 'other' and enter my admin username and password, it is not accepted and the password field just shakes.
Am I missing something obvious?
Many thanks.

@Frank Caggianoy
Yep, the Display login window is set to List of users. The password that has been set up is the passwsord I've been using for several months at work, so that cannot be the issue.
@nbar
When I set up the standard user account, there was definately an administrator account in the user list. I also installed some work related applications which are not present when logged in to the standard account.
I've got to say that these forums are very helpful - thanks for the suggestions. I'll speak to the person who set up everything tomorrow, and post back what the problem/solution was.
Cheers.

Problem verifying mail address after creating new iTunes account

I was trying to create new iTunes account in UK store without credit card verification following Apple's guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534. After creation of new account, I tried to login with new credentials and got message that my email address is not verified. When I clicked OK to verify address, I got following message:
Your request could not be completed. Make sure your computer's date is set correct and that accepts cookies from the iTunes Music store.
Yes, time is correct and no problems with cookies. There is More Info that sends to http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1459 which is completely unrelated to me. That page explains Windows problems, do have OSX, latest update.
Any idea what might be the problem ? TIA

Don't create a new account. Update your previous account with any new/changed info and contiune to use it.

TS1424 When i try to download or update my apps. Message pop out "there is an billing problem on your previous purchased". I tried to change my visa acct no. Still unable to access. Tried to create new itune account & access but they still showed old itun

When tried to download or update it showed"there is a problem in billing from previous purchased" changed to new payment account still unable to access. Created new itune account still cant access, keep showing old account detailed. & asked for verification. Pls assist. Thank you.

Also when I apply the safety copy it only imports the app the phones have had in common, so none of the apps that only the iPhone 4 had doesn't come in, only the ones I and the iPhone 4 has had in common. So you say the only way I can use the Apple ID to download on the old iPhone 4 is if I delete the apps that are in the phone and then download them again? How will that change the ID to download/update from. Won't it still have mine to update/download from?

Account mail for user can't create after create new users account

Hi,
I have a recent installation of Server MacOS X 10.5 like advanced server. The services DNS, DHCP, OPEN DIRECTORY and MAIL are lifted and they work very well.
Now when I believe a new user account, it is not also believed the mailbox of messages in the mail server in spite of activating the electronic mail service in the user's account.
Please somebody can help me.
Thank you!

Mailboxes are created only when they either receive mail for the first time or are accessed via IMAP the first time.

Login page keeps going to "Create new user account" on login

For about 3 weeks, whenever I log in, the next page I get is nearly always the "Create new user account" page. This happens regardless of whether I wait to let AutoFill enter my user name and password or whether I fill in the correct info myself.
When I click the back button on my browser and finally arrive at the page with the forums list, I'm always registered as logged in. But sometimes I just end up back on the login page with a blank entry box.
How do I get to the forums page without having to get out of the "new user account" page first? (While this isn't a huge problem, it's time-wasting and kind of annoying, and it didn't used to happen.)

Hi Turtlewiz!
Have you tried deleting your browser cache & cookies?
Good Luck!

New Virtual hard disk wizard hangs after creating new vhd from huper-v manager on windows 7

New Virtual hard disk wizard hangs after creating new vhd from huper-v manager on windows 7 workstation.
Windows 2008r2 hosts the hyper-v server. I can create VMs and VHD's when connecting to the server locally with the hyper-v manager.
The issue arises when I try to connect to the hyper-v server from my workstation which runs windows 7.
I have installed The Windows6.1-KB958830-x64-RefreshPkg.msu that was suggested for windows 7 sp1.
I can connect to the hyper-v server, create vm's but I cannot create vhd's the gui just hangs with no errors in event log or on screen.
The files are there on the hyper-v hard drive but i suspect they are just created by windows as they are written and are not valid.

I've had just the same solution. Both did Hang Fixed size and flexible.
Two parts were taken:
1 - KB939820 for Windows 2003 server based domain controllers
2 - disable using IPv6 on your NIC
Result - both types of VHD's are created normaly.
-----Infrastructure----
Windows 2003 Domain upgtraded to 2008R2
Windows Server 2008R2 Hyper-V - virtualisation clustered
Windows 7 Pro - Hyper-V management

STRANGE PROBLEM with "Create New Mail Account.scpt" when creating POP acct.

I am using "Create New Mail Account.scpt" to create a POP account. It creates the account successfully. It fetches the mails successfully. Now the problem begins. After fetching all the mails once if u click "Get Mail" in mac mail, it fetches all the emails again and has now 1 original and 1 copy of the email set which is on the server. I just need 1 copy of the mail set not multiple. Please give me a solution or direct me to a help.
Thanks

Hi amiaba, and a warm welcome to the forums!
I can't quite tell what it's doing, but open Keychain Access in Applications>Utilities, click on your Keychain on the left, put .mac in the search bar, once you find it, double click on it and click show password.
If you have no mail in there try this with Mail quit.
Drag this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
Start Mail & see if it steps you through it.
Not sure on the .uk thing, but is Date & Time>Time Zone set to the UK?

How to create new Standard views in BPEL worklist

Hi all,
we want to use the BPEL Sample Worklist and customize it. Among others we want to modify the existing standard views (like "High Priority Tasks" etc.) and add new ones.
According to a tech note ("http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/bpel/htdocs/orabpel_standardviewtechnote.html", actually the only one we found!) on the Oracle Tech Network we modified the XML file (StandardTaskViews.xml) that defines the original standard views.
That xml file is located in the bpm-services.jar file under $[oracle.home]/bpel/system/services/lib.
But when restarting the server all standard views disappeared, even after replacing the changed jar file with the original one!?
So how can we create new standard views!?
Regards
Jan

Ok, thanks.
But what happens if a new user is created after you have set the VIEWOWNER column to all users!? This user won't have that view!? Or is there a chance to set the VIEWOWNER column to something like "ALLUSERS"!?
In our understanding this is exactly what Standard views represent: A view that is available to all users. So it would be very handy if one could easily define new standard views instead of creating a custom view and make it available to all (currently existing) users...
Regards
Jan

Old user account not accessible - Had to create new user account

Why was I forced to create a new user account in order to access Apple discussions? The last time I had posted to Apple discussions was 11/06. From the emails notifying me of replies to my post, I can still go to the link where my question and the replies are. Last week I wanted to post another question. Instead I encountered a circular problem. Every time I tried to log in to discussions with my Apple ID and password (the same as my .Mac name and password, which were working fine for accessing .Mac), I was told that there was an error in my password. When I tried again, I was repeatedly re-directed to a "create new user account" web page that listed my .Mac email address as my Apple ID, as it should have. I tried to re-create my old user account with my own [real] name (as before) and was told that name was in use! Of course, it was me! (I had always used by real first name and surname as my name on Apple discussions.) So finally, very frustrated, I created a new name, a nickname, for discussions, and it worked. Now, all my previous posts are gone. It's as if I didn't exist in the Apple world until today, 9/16/07, but I originally had established my user account in 2004. I tried asking about this in a phone call to Apple support, but I was re-directed to the .Mac web site. Then I posted a question at .Mac feedback to no avail. I had a feeling that as soon as I "obeyed" and created a new user account that wouldn't be recognized as myself, my past posts would be sent into oblivion. I don't like losing all my previous posts that were attached to my user account. I have found this problem very frustrating and would really like an explanation.

Hi decemberbaby,
Try this procedure.
Delete all the Apple Cookies in your browser, and empty the Cache.
Go here Discussions Sign In, and try logging in with your original Apple ID again.
If that still doesn't work, delete the Cookies again, and go to My Info, and log in with the original Apple ID.
If you get the error message "Your Apple ID or password was entered incorrectly.", click on "Did you forget your password? Click here for assistance".
On the page that opens, you can also click on "Forget your Apple ID

Can't create new email account.

I can't create new emails account because when I go to Setting and click in Mail,Contacts ,calender, it goes back to home, intead of open the options. Any advice? Thanks
Julio

Double tab the home button and when the application button shows up hold the settings icon until you see a red dot in the corner and hit that.
If that dosent work then try restarting the device. Hold the lock button (top right of iPad) until slide to power off appears then hit the same button to get it back on.
To actually make an email account you have to go to the providers web page, you can't create one in settings

Create new child accounts under an active account with transactions

Hi experts,
I've searched on the forums but could't get to a definitive conclusion.
Is there a way to create new child accounts under an active account with transactions?
I have an account 6226 with transactions.
The customer would like to divide this account in 4 new accounts:
62261, 62262, 62263, 62264.
B1 gives an error when I try to change the account to title which is undestandable but I imagine that should be a way to do this beacause with time the customers needs can change...
Thanks everyone!

Hi,
Welcome you post on the forum.
B1 has only one level for active account. You can get the definitive conclusion that it is not possible to have child active account.
Thanks,
Gordon
