Updated to Tiger, now I can't log in

I just upgraded my Mac OS X 10.2.8 Server to Mac OS X 10.4.8 Tiger. I used the Archive and Install Option and selected the Preserve Users and Network Settings option. It installed, and I restarted the system. When the log in screen came up I attempted to log in to the administrator account. After I typed in the password it gave me the following error message:
You are unable to log in to the user account "[account name]" at this time.
Logging into the account failed because an error occured. The home folder for the user account is located on an AFP or SMB server.
I am able to log into another administrative user account, but it is not the main account. Is it doing this because I upgraded from a server OS to a regular OS? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Please don't post the same question to multiple forums unless someone explicitly tells you to do so because it's more appropriate. It confuses responders. Close out this one and hopefully someone who knows servers can answer the one you posted in the installation forum. While you're waiting, peruse the server forum at http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=96. You might find an answer there.

  • Recently I update Firefox and now I can't acces to my router

    Recently I update Firefox and now I can't acces to my router main page any more.
    Before I get a window that ask me to add an exception, cause the certificate ... as I check the remember the exception it always ask me for the exception. was not so bad as I have ask any time for the exception and finally I have acces to it . But now NO WAY !!!
    I still go to internet, all my computers are connected but I could'nt reach the router to change some settings and add news computers ( my settings are very secure on my router to add a device I have to enter the MAC address). I still get my printer at 192.168.3.141, the modem at 192.168.1.1 but when I want to go to the router main page 192.168.3.1, I get this message :
    Secure Connection Failed
    An error occurred during a connection to 192.168.3.1. Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s). (Error code: ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap)
    The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
    I read that FF change some settings on the new versions and last time I enter on my router without problems was on October 10.
    Now I have installed the 33.0.1 my OS Is XP.
    PLEASE HELP WITH THAT ISSUE
    EDIT: I suspect that my problem have to be with the certificate manager because I see it change a lot on this version, and have a place to add exception security like the old one that I use to have to check in the past.
    it look like the same problem as me:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1042889
    I don't understand almost nothing about certificates then I didn't find any tutorial explaining how to deal with. Also I sow that was totally diferent have some ssl things to check and now is a OCSP ??? for me all still chinesse (lol) I only want someting very simple: reach my router !!!.
    I only see on authorities many times my router address, I try to add an exception and say the certificate couldn't be found. I don't know how to play with all this settings , but I'm shure have relation to my problem.
    Sorry, my english it's not the best.

    [SOLVED)
    @the-edmeister That work !!! thank you very much. I have to put it at SSLv3 option to this work.
    I have a question for you. How I could figure out to work with that in the future? could I add an exception on the certificates? or something like that to still let me enter on my router web page? or how I could figure out to make any change on tomato router to still work with the new standard? .

  • Bottom of my ipod screen won't respond, so i reset factory settings as suggested, it didn't help and now i can't log in to itunes as my apple id password has numbers in it

    few issues here. firstly, the bottom section of my ipod touch 4th gen won't respond. it'll let me slide to unlock but not tap anything, including to change between keyboards which brings me onto my second problem. i did a factory reset because a few people on here had suggested it, but now i can't log into my apple account because my password has numbers in. is there a way to bypass this requirement? or fix my ipod? i can't afford a replacement

    jeez guys thanks for the help!

  • HT1923 I have just updated itunes and now I can't print the playlist when I burn a list to cd. How do  make a cd case cover or list of songs?

    I just recently updated itunes and now I can't print the playlist or print a cd case cover. I want to at least print a list of songs to go in the cd case. How do I do that?

    beggsc54,  There were some printing bugs in iTunes 11.0 which reportedly have been fixed in 11.0.1.  If you haven't upgraded yet, install the latest iTunes and try again.

  • I upgraded from 10.4.11 to 10.5.0 using a drop in DVD and now I can't log in...

    I upgraded from 10.4.11 to 10.5.0 using a drop in DVD and now I can't log in...
    This was on a G5 imac. I tried booting to the DVD and resetting the password but this did not help.
    I did see the 2 user accounts still there when I reset the password so that gives me hope that my data is all there intact.
    I need help getting past this login screen PLEASE!    
    The login name is blank and I've tried everything to get past it.
    I heard from a tech that there was a problem when upgrading from 10.4.11 to 10.5.0 instead of the 10.5.3 or whatever, and it was a known issue when using the 10.5.0 disc to upgrade and he said that there was information on apple's site on what to do when this happens but I have not come accross this info as of yet.
    I would really appreciate any help anyone can give me.
    Thanks!!!

    OK I finally got passed the above problem by just trying to type it in over and over and over and it finally took!
    It seems as though I may have typed it wrong or misspelled something but I could swear I put it in the same way everytime!
    NOW...
    when I type : passwd username
    replacing username with the short name it says
    paddwd: Unknown user name 'username'
    someone told me that possibly the home folder is still there and intact but the login may have gotten trashed and that i may need to recreate the user login. Does that sound like a possibility?

  • I changed my Apple ID password and now I can't log into iCloud

    I changed my Apple ID password and now I can't log into iCloud.  In addition I am unable to sign out or exit the iCloud System Preference page and have to force a shut down using the power off button to get rid of it.  Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks

    If the Preference Pane hangs, hit comand-option-escape and force quit System Preferences to avoid having to reboot.
    In order to sign out you need the original password if you have set up 'Find My ....'. However you can't now change the password back to the original one (as you are not allowed to re-use a password).In this situation only Support can help you.
    To contact  iCloud Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
    If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support and you may be asked to pay a fee.

    Doublechecking. Have you tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

    I've been using LR with my Nikon D3200 for a year or so. Shooting in RAW/NEF no issues with import etc until I updated LR and now I can't get LR to allow me to select when I try to import. It does show the images but they're grayed out and not able to be selected. Any thoughts? TIA

    Greyed imaged in the Import dialog box mean you have already imported the photos into Lightroom, so there is no need and no benefit to importing them a second time.
    Just go to the Library module, search for the desired photos, and resume working on these photos.

  • A renter used my Apple TV to access Netflix, and now I can't log him out.  Besides calling the renter to ask him to fix this, how do I fix this?

    A renter used my Apple TV to access his Netflix movies, and now I can't log him out.  Besides calling the renter to ask him to fix this using his Netflix.com account, how do I fix this?

    There is no option in Apple TV to log out of Netflix.  The internet tells me to go to netflix.com to "Disconnect from All Devices".  I can't because I'm unable to log in to a renter's Netflix account.
    Why is there no option to log out when using Apple TV?  I can't ask my next renter to reset my Apple TV each time.

    I don't think you're on iOS 5, I think you're using iOS 6.  That's the latest version.
    Unless you've used iCloud to back up your documents, you won't be able to restore them.  And for future reference, you don't have to uninstall Pages to update your iPad anymore.  Sorry about this.
