User called 'update required'

I have acquired an extra user that appears at startup called 'Update Required.' I believe this was probably created when I installed Yosemite on an already encrypted disk (I wanted to do a clean install and thought it might save time to encrypt it when erasing the disk). I'd like to know if there's a way of removing this without having to start the whole installation process again.
I have a mid 2011 iMac 27" running 10.10.1.
Thanks

Sorry posted in wrong forum. I can't move this so have recreated in Yosemite forum..

Select the FileVault tab in the Security & Privacy preference pane. Click the lock icon in the lower left corner and authenticate to unlock the settings, if necessary. If you see a button labeled Enable Users, click it and select the users whom you want to be able to unlock the volume.
Otherwise, back up all data, disable FileVault in the Security & Privacy preference pane, wait for it to finish decrypting (which will take several hours), and then re-enable it. You can use the computer while those operations are in progress, but performance will be reduced. You won't need the backup unless something goes wrong.

Yosemite user login [Update required]

Hi All
Ive recently installed Yosemite on my MacBook Pro and when I log there is a head with a question mark with [Update required] written below. This reoccurs every time I have started my Mac and loggedin.
I input my password and it logs in but this takes a while. Anyone had this problem?
Cheers

If you go to preferences, users and groups what does it show?

New user called user.domain after updating from win 8.1 to win 10

I can't find any information on it at the moment but my guess would be that the profile versions have increased between 8.1 and 10 as they did between 7 and 8.1
I think I remember seeing somewhere that the profiles in Windows 10 are now v5 instead of the v4 of 8.1
Found a similar article explaining the changes from the release of 8.1/server 2012R2

Hi,
i will try to shortly explain the scenario:
I have removed my PC from my company's domain, in order to update my windows 8.1 pro to windows 10 pro. (i read a microsoft article telling that we are supposed not to be joined to a domain so we can do the upgrade).
so after the upgrade was done, i rejoined my pc to the domain. i logged in with my AD user, but a new profile was loaded called: user.domain
and my old profile is still in c:/users/ called user
how can i load my old profile back?

How do I sign my VB / VS 2010 based shared COM add-in for Excel so it loads when the user has checked "Require application add-ins to be signed by a trusted publisher"?

My COM add-in is developed using VS 2010 and VB. It's a shared COM add-in (not VSTO) and it works with Excel 2007 - 2013. My installer is signed with a code signing certificate but it would appear that my add-in's .dll should also be signed if the user has
checked the "Require application add-ins to be signed by a trusted publisher" option.
The "Sign the assembly" option is checked in my add-in's VB -> My Project -> Signing. I have a .snk file selected which I seem to recall generating 6 or 7 years ago when I ported the COM add-in from VB6 to .NET.
I have an up-to-date Comodo code signing certificate (a pfx file called MyCompanyCodeSigningCertificatePrivateKey.pfx) which I purchased to use with the installer and was wondering if and how I could use this.
I tried selecting my pfx file in the My Project -> Signing -> "Choose a strong name key file" dialog. It made a copy of the pfx file in my project folder but when I tried to build the project, I got the following error:
Error 1 Cannot import the following key file: MyCompanyCodeSigningCertificatePrivateKey.pfx. The key file may be password protected. To correct this, try to import the certificate again or manually install the certificate to the Strong Name CSP with the
following key container name: VS_KEY_C0B6F251F0FB6016
After a little research, I found out I might be able to use signtool to sign the dll in a post-build step.
I added the following command to the post-build event, before the command I use to regasm the assembly.
"path to signtool\signtool" sign /f "MyCompanyCodeSigningCertificatePrivateKey.pfx" /p "xxxx" /v "$(TargetPath)"
When I built the project, the dll appeared to get signed (the output window showed a bunch of confirming text as well as "Successfully signed: c:\MyAddIn\bin\Release\MyAddIn.dll") but the next step in the post-build (regasm myaddin.dll /codebase)
issued a warning RA0000 (see below) but reported "Types registered successfully".
Here's the message I get from regasm, even though the output window says the dll was sucessfully signed:
RegAsm : warning RA0000: Registering an unsigned assembly with /codebase can cause your assembly to interfere with other applications that may be installed on the same computer. The /codebase switch is intended to be used only with signed assemblies. Please give your assembly a strong name and re-register it.
Types registered successfully
I'm not using a shim if that makes a difference.
How do I sign my add-in so it loads when the user has checked "Require application add-ins to be signed by a trusted publisher"?
Any tips would be appreciated.

Hello,
Why do you need to use the regasm utility from the post-build action?
There is a difference between signing the assembly with a strong name and digital signature. The
How to: Sign an Assembly with a Strong Name article in MSDN explains how to sign an assembly with a strong name (.snk). See
How to digitally sign a strong named assembly for adding a digital signature.
You may also find the

How do I get a user to update to the Flash Player Version to 10.1

I would like to find out if there is a way for a message to pop up on my website if the user has Flash Player version lower than 10.1. If the version 10.1 or higher (in the future) no message should come up. The message should prompt a user to update to the Flash Player version 10.1.
My entire site is in Flash and I am using AS3. So I am guessing I should implement an AS3 code on the first frame of the script layer. Does anyone know what would be this code?

O.K. I see,
HTML code is automatically generated by Flash program.
I am unable to give you a short answer on this and thus attaching the code I
see in DreamWeaver:

Hi Adil,
Document Library is different from a normal list. The document library contains files inside it. You need to update the code to add a document to the library. Then you can get hold of the List Item represented by that file and update its properties. Here
is an example:
$WebURL = "http://aissp2013/sites/TestSite"
$DocLibName = "Docs"
$FilePath = "c:\blogs.txt"
# Get a variable that points to the folder
$Web = Get-SPWeb $WebURL
$List = $Web.GetFolder($DocLibName)
$Files = $List.Files
# Get just the name of the file from the whole path
$FileName = $FilePath.Substring($FilePath.LastIndexOf("\")+1)
# Load the file into a variable
$File= Get-ChildItem $FilePath
# Upload it to SharePoint
$spFile = $Files.Add($DocLibName +"/" + $FileName,$File.OpenRead(),$false)
$item = $spFile.Item
$item["Title"] = "New Title"
$item.Update()
$web.Dispose()

Hi,
It looks like you are using either :
1. A READONLY CACHE GROUP with PassThrough > 0.
or
2. An SWT CACHE GROUP
Is that correct? This looks like a mismatch between the TT Oracle library and the version of the Oracle client that you have installed (or maybe a bad setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH).
What is the exact version of TimesTen you are using (output of ttVersion command)?
What is the exact version of Oracle?
Thanks, Chris

Problems with user-defined update-process

Hi.
I have a small problem in the right syntax in an user-defined updated process.
The process is called by a button on the page and should update a record in a table.
BEGIN
UPDATE wam_mod_allocation SET
alloc_assessment = V('P2120_ASSESSMENT'),
last_update_date = LOCALTIMESTAMP,
last_update_staff = V('APP_USER')
WHERE username = V('P2120_USERNAME')
AND module_id = V('P2120_MODULE_ID')
END;
This is the code of the process. The line with the problem is marked bold. P2120_USERNAME is a text field in the page and contains the username to be updated.
The problem is, that the comparison doesn't work. the value "smith" is available in the table and is the same as in the text field. (both in lower case).
If I replace the part V('P2120_USERNAME') with 'smith' (with single quotes), the update statement works properly.
How do I have to compare the username with the item value that it works properly?

1. Stephan
2 + 3 Well. I enclosed both tags in the TRIM-Operator and it works. First, I thought, a whitespace caused the problems. To determine which value contains the whitespaces I removed the trim-tags on both sides. It works.
It is quite funny, because,if I remove both tags, it works too? Well. Yesterday it didnt.
To be on the safe side, I will include the trim-tags.
Thanks very much.
Stephan

"This update requires Mac OS X 10.6.7" !? i installed 10.6.8

hello i have a problem when i install new safari it say ; This update requires Mac OS X 10.6.7" but i have 10.6.8 !!! why ?

Don't Uninstall Safari. It rarely does any good, and often just creates more of a mess.
The CT problem is handled this way
Close Safari.
Check here for CT Loader
Locate and delete:
HD/Library/Application Support/Conduit
HD/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
HD/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
HD/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
HD/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
HD/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
It may not be in every single location, but get it out where ever you find it.
Restart Safari. Any Better?
If it's already uninstalled, try the combo update to get SAfari back.
Or reinstall from your Install Disk.

Standard users + software updates

Hello,
My environment includes a 10.6 server and a full 2003 Active Directory environment. All of my Macs are connected to AD and I manage their policy via Workgroup Manager on my Xserve. I want to set my Mac users up as Standard instead of Admin, but I run into the issue of them not being able to install updates, which causes a bit of a headache on my end. Is there any way I can either set the updates to install automatically (without authentication) or allow a Standard user to install updates? Are there any variables I can add to com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist to allow this?
Thanks,
Tim

i wouldn't recommend having your users install updates whenever they want unless you're talking about a very small office or something.
if you're putting time into managing prefs and other aspects of user experience, you should also test and apply updates on your schedule.
there are many ways to automate the installation from the client side. most have considerations, so it will require weighing the pros and cons of each method before using one.
there are some posts here that describe the obstacles with this situation:

CRM ACE User Context Update

Hi all,
How do we update the user context of active ace users automatically. Currently the user context is getting expired after the default time of 16 hours and after that when the users search on orders produces zero results. When I go to ACE_UPDATE and update the user context then again it works fine.
Is there a way to do it automatically.
Thanks.
Neha.
Edited by: Neha Kapoor on May 22, 2009 1:04 AM

Hi Neha,
This is due to some missing authorization with users when ACE try to do a user context refresh or calculates actor again. Please put a trace on user when this automatic refresh happens (after 16 hours in your case and when user login).
Ideally, user should have required auth. be able to execute the AFU method of his/her ACE classes.
Hope this helps.

Satender

The Moon Worm - Infects Home Routers - Shows Fake "Adobe Flash Critical Update Required" Message

Greetings,
This morning we had numerous workstations pop up with an Adobe Flash error. The browser will be taken over by an Adobe Flash Critical Update Required page and won't let the browser go to any other internet site. Within the page, a box will pop up that says: "Attention! your current version of Adobe Flash Player is outdated! Your computer is vulnerable to malware now. Update your Adobe Flash player now."
This message pops up on IE Explorer version 9-11, Google Chrome and Firefox and the operating systems are Windows XP Pro and Windows 7 pro. It has all the behavior of a virus or malware so I don't want to run it's download file which is named install_flashplayer_12_x32_64_msaa_aax_latest.exe.
I've been able to download both flash player installs from the Adobe.com site for both IE and Other Browsers. Sometimes I've been able to run the installs and it shows that the download and install ran okay with Adobe Flash Player 12 ActiveX showing up in the installed programs list. Other times, the install won't run and the install file mysteriously gets deleted. Even after the successful download and install, the browser works briefly okay and then gets seized by the "Critical Update Required" page again.
We're running AVG Anti-Virus Business Edition which is kept updated. A scan with this program and an updated version of Malwarebytes isn't showing any viruses or malware that could cause this problem.
What can I do to get rid of this "Critical Update Required" problem and get our browsers working again?
Thanks.

I have a Cisco E3000 Wireless N Router. I was having the issue accross OSX and Windows. This thread was a big help, but when I tried to get the latest firmware from Cisco I found the download link was no lnger present. I chatted with their support and obtained the following info if it helps anyone:
"Linksys is aware of the malware called “The Moon” that has affected select older Linksys E-Series routers and select older Wireless-N access points and routers. The exploit to bypass the admin authentication used by the worm only works when the Remote Management Access feature is enabled. Linksys ships these products with the Remote Management Access feature turned off by default."
" If you have not enabled the Remote Management Access feature of the router, you are not susceptible to this specific malware. If you have enabled the Remote Management Access feature, we can prevent further vulnerability to your network by disabling the Remote Management Access feature and rebooting your router to remove the installed malware. Linksys will be working on the affected products with a firmware fix that is planned to be posted on our website in the coming weeks."
"What we can do to fix this issue is to make sure that the router's security settings is enabled and the remote management is disabled."
"Ensure that the Filter Anonymous Internet Requests on the Security Page is enabled."
"The next step would disconnect us from the session. We need to reboot the router to clear the cache."
"According to the system, your product is already outside the complimentary assisted support period. I’d just like to inform you that we normally charge a fee for supporting this type of issue,
but since we’re seeing a potential hardware problem with the product, we’ll be extending complimentary support just this one time."
"We also need to upgrade the Firmware. However, the Firmware for this router is no longer available for download. Disabling the remote management on your router and securing it would help fix the issue."
I did find the latest firmware for the E3000 here: http://www.userdrivers.com/LAN-Network-Adapter/Linksys-E3000-Wireless-N-Router-Firmware-Up date-1-0-04-build-6/download/

My Macbook will not start like it normally does, it says update required. What is wrong?

My macbook says "update required" everytime i turn it on. It just shows me a grey screen and then I have to log in with my password. I cannot see my account picture either. What to do? I have recently reset my Macbook.

Back up all data.
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out these instructions. I've tested them only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
sudo fdesetup sync
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. Confirm. You don't need to post the warning.
If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Log in as one and start over.
Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear. You can then quit Terminal. Test.
