User login not starting up but others do

I have been frustrated by the fact that the main login for my intel mac running snow leopard will not log in, but other user log ins will. The computer will boot to the log in screen, and if I select other users (wife, kids) it logs them in no problem. My log in hangs immediately after selecting my name. I can safe boot to the login, and if I safe boot, do verify and replace permissions, then this also "sometimes" works for one log in, but otherwise it hangs. I have cleared the start up items, but still no luck. Also, if there is a major osx update, then if I download and install the update the first time I restart it will restart. I would like to keep this login going, if possible, otherwise I will have to back up itunes, iphoto, etc. and delete the user and make my wife's the main one. I can't see any difference in the initial log in screens between users, it seems the same things are loading up.

Hi 9 Roy Hobbs,
I would recommend starting the machine up from the dvd disc that came with it in the box, and do the repair permissions from there (also may be worth doingh a repair disc while youre in there too).
Hope this helps.

Why is Firefox 4 "running", not start up; but, running so agonizingly slow?

Firefox 4 is running, not start up; but running agonizingly slow! It is absolutely infuriating-the previous version was much faster than this one-what is going on?

I have the same problem. It isn't only that it is running slow but when I am typing it is as if it pauses and then the words catch up. Also going from tab to tab there is a pause. I have high speed and it is almost as bad as being on dialup again. How do we fix this? At least before the update it ran better.

You are syncing contacts or trying to sync contacts how - direct with a supported address book app on your computer via the iTunes sync process, which is selected under the Info tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?

User is not logged on, but the system thinks it did!

Hi,
We're having a problem with one user. When you try to log on with his userid and password, this notification screan comes up: You have already logged in. Do you want to logout and login to a different Organization? "YES" "NO"
Trying again, doesn't work.
When you watch the logged on sessions with the admin console, you will see that there is a session with the user and that he is indeed logged on!
BUT this is not how it is for real, cause he is NOT logged on, doesn't get further then this notification screen!!
Someone knwos what's wrong? We still have to try to restart everything, but it's a production system so we'll have to wait till nobody is logged on :-S
Thanks!
Greetz,
Miranda

- it is possible to terminate the session and the user is logged of (also get's the message)
- when the users answers no (to log of and log in to a new organization) you stay at the same screen notification
and the admin console shows the user as logged on
- when the users answers yes (to log of and log in to a new organization) it get's the logon screen (default logon screen)
and the admin console shows the user as logged off
- when i inactivate the user and it is logged on, it get's after trying to logon new this message: This user is not active.
Contact your system administrator, but it stays logged on .. shows the admin console
- i also can delete the user from the organization (after one time logged on it has a profile under the users from the logged on organization)

Adobe Active File Monitor V12 will not start/ program crashes & other errors

I have recently installed Version 12 of Photoshop Elements on Windows XP Pro (service pack 3).
If I try to specify "Watched Folders" PE tells me to start the Adobe Active File Monitor in Admin Tools - Services.
If I try to manually start this service it reports that:
"Could not start the Adobe Active File Monitor V12 service on local computer Error 1067. The process terminated unexpectedly"
If I look at the Event Viewer in XP there are numerous errors reporting that this service has attempted to start automatically with the following error:

In addition the Photoshop Organiser crashes frequently and If I edit a picture and save it to the stack, it does not appear in the catalogue so I have to manually get the picture and stack it with the original. I assume that these problems are related to the above problem.
My original installation co-existed with Version 3 so I uninstalled this old version then uninstaled and reinstalled version 12. This made no difference to the problem.
Any ideas on this problem?

Thanks for that suggestion Michel.
Killing the AutoAnalyzer using these instructions (http://barbarabrundage.com/2013/10/31/the-elements-12-auto-analyzer-adobes-evil-undead/doe s ) does seem to have solved the problem of edited pictures not being saved to the stack - although I have noticed that since disabling the autoanalyzer, when saving a file, the editor almost always now does not display the option window which allows you to choose if you want to save with the stack etc. It usually only shows the JPEG quality selector window.
Its too early for me to say if making this change has reduced the frequency of crashes but it certainly has not solved the problem with the Watched Folders so Im still looking for a solution to this one.

User Crontab not started automaticaly

Dear all
I have following problem with my "user" crontabs:
OD Master (OS 10.5.1) with different users defined. I log into that server with ssh with a "user" account (not admin). I define an cron job with crontab -e. Everything now works like expected. Now I restart my server and the user crontab job is not started. When I look at the jobs with crontab -l, then I see the job listed correctly, but it's not executed.
I can "fix" that, when I log in as that user again and edit the job with crontab -e and save the exact same job again. Then it's runnging again like a charm until I restart the server again... then the same procedure happens again...
Anyone has an idea what it could be ?
Info: When I check the cron-job with ps -ef after a reboot of the I can see, that cron is running.
Cheers, Daniel

Thnx for the direction, direwolf
It seems, that I'm to "old style" UNIX damaged...
Does the calendar bug from launchd still exists in 10.5.1 ? As long this is the case, as long it will not be a replacement for cron.
And anyway this seems to be a bug in crontab as well... old style or not.
Or does anyone have user cron jobs running at server startup ?
Cheers Daniel

I got a new macbook pro and am having a great deal of trouble with it from the start! But other than that, which I will get to, I have had macs since the one following Lisa and I am a diehard apple fan, yet now with the macbook pro and Lion and its

I could not download the upgrade to the mountain lion. my updates were taking an enormous amount of time for other programs. When I finally got the indication it was waiting to be downloaded I had to shut down. It was after 2 am and I was practically unconscious already with all the trauma of trying to find the right place for the redeem of the code to open the password. It was all confusing and poorly communicated by Apple. The terrible deterioration of Apple's written communications by non-American techies who can't write for easy understanding, even by this old time tech afficianado is heart-breaking and frustrating is putting the effects mildly. I have not yet gone back to the mac book pro to finish the job. I am too frustrated and unhappy with the new system. Also, I found out the hard way that my time capsule saved files on the macbook Snow Leopard, which still works fine after 6 years of use, is locked in that external drive and I cannot transfer the items except one by one or by folders on that computer to a DVD or to a flash drive, to mport to this new computer. Because the systems are not the same, I can't access the files automatically. I fear I will have further problems with the mountain lion vs. lion in seeing those files. What can I do? What should I do? I am afraid to designate an external hard drive I purchased with the new laptop for the time capsule because then it won't work with any other computer. I read of terrible incompatibility issues and crashes and things not working right once Mountain Lion was installed and now I am terrified they will happen to me. I just wanted the computer to be as easy to use as all the other macs I have and have had and now it is more like a horribly complicated and difficult Microsoft IBM compatible PC. I hate this. Perhaps Apple wanted to appeal to new Apple users and tried to make them comfortable while disregarding the comfort of loyal Apple users? It's a sell-out. Meanwhile, I have to get senior tech people because the kids who try to answer my questions much of the time don't interpret what i am telling them and it takes a pro. Perhaps the kids can answer what I should do in preferenced to scroll the screen, since the scroll indicators disappear and I can't see them and have to resort to using the arrows on the keyboard, which is not the way I like to work. Please advise me about all of these things!

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Workflow 2013 does not start automatically but 2010 yes

Hello everyone,
I'm facing to a strange issue on my SharePoint 2013 server:
A workflow creates an item in an other list.
This list has two workflows created by Designer 2013, one 2010, the other in 2013. The two are configured with the "Start when item created".When the item is created, 2010 starts but not the 2013.
I'm not using the system account and I have two workflows to understand why the 2013 is not started automatically.
Regards,

Here is something similar..

2012r2 Incident- Affected User CI not populated (grey) but data appears elsewhere

Maybe I'm staring at this too long but I have an issue and not sure where to attack it
Repro- Creating an incident, I populate the affected user and usually the 'Affected User CI' box below will show the computers for that user from SCCM. In my new build it is blank and actually greyed out not sure if that is due to the user info not
available or a config issue.
When I look in Configuration items I see all the users populated and the computers too. However when I check the User and look for related Computers it's blank. However I see their computers in the area for Devices. SCCM Asset Intelligence is up and operating
and appears to be correct.
I am trying to get access to my lab environment (onsite with customer this week). This just doesn't seem right and I am looking for clues
Anyone?

That information is popuated by the SCCM connector from config manager user-device affinity process, where in a device will automatically identify a primary user based on most frequent logons, and the user will identify their primary device by selecting
it from the cm website.
if the client has disabled this feature in CM, then there will be nothing for Service Manager to replicate.
See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg699365.aspx for more info on device affinity.

Any method to prevent a user login with 1 account, but several machines?

May I ask for your recommendations to prevent a user to login my application with his/her account through different computers?
Background information:
1. My application is developed with BC4J framework.
2. Login details: Once a user's is validated with their user id and password stored in a backend database table, he/she would be granted the right to use my application with a common connection account, as stated with the configuration details specified.
Here is my solution:
- When a user login my application, I'll lookup if there is any existing user record in a database table, let say, TBL_CURR_USERS. If no user record is found, the user will be granted the right of launching my applications and have a user record written down in the table TBL_CURR_USERS. If a user record is found, the user will receive an error message - "Your specified account is in use. You are not allowed to enter until your specified account has been logged off."
- Problem: My problem is - how to trigger the event for removing the record in the table TBL_CURR_USER when user logs out implicity or internet connection interrupts. Let say, when the user close the browser by clicking the 'X' icon, I have nothing to trigger my deletion for the user record in the TBL_CURR_USERS table. If so, in the long term, many users will not be able to use my application until housekeeping is done for the table TBL_CURR_USERS ... what should I do? Any Java solutions or JDeveloper solutions available?
Thanks for your replying!

I had the same problem and I resolved in a different way. In the application server I have a Set in the context and I add a user when the login is successful and I remove it (I store the user even in the session) when the session expires (I have a session listener) or when the user explicitly logouts.
I don't need table and I don't need to do anything if the application server crashes.
If you don't use connection pooling you could use a logon trigger on the database.
I hope it helps,
Giovanni

Laptop not starting up but rather blinking

My laptop just blinking. Nothing responding. All happened suddenly. I unplugged AC power removed the battery and pressed the on bottom for 30 s and then on but the problem was the same. My windows was 10 upgraded while this problem happened hoped this problem would be terminated.
I was trying to turn 3d max on when this problem started. I doubled click on the software icon and waited to start and this small circle started to turn but suddenly blinking started and icons disappeared. Since then, only blinking and I realised that the internet went off as well
Need help please to sort this problem

"‎10-15-201401:55 PM
If the board is dead.. The laptop should not start..
But it start and suddenly off without any display.."
oh, okay. good luck.

Firefox won't start when double-clicked or when clicked on from the Start menu - but other programs say it IS running.

When I go to the START Menu to start up Firefox - *or* double-click the Firefox icon on the desktop - the program will *not* start. Yet if I try to do something that may interfere with Firefox, it says to close Firefox down because it's running.... which it isn't. Even going into the Task Manager through *control-alt-delete* shows plainly that Firefox is not running... I downloaded a game through Mediabox.com to watch a movie, that may have started the problem.

No - I get the message basically saying "Can't run program while Firefox is running. Please close down Firefox & try again".
I rebooted my computer and it all works now - but that's weird it was happening before. Kinda weirded out that it happened at all.
To avoid that happening again, I still wanna know what to do to avoid it or fix it for next time. Thanks

Adobe Media Encoder CS 6 works for one user login - not the other

Slightly odd... but Adobe Media Encoder CS 6 will open fine in my basic test user account but not my main user account (or guest account).
In my main account in will crash just before it starts to load up all the bits 'n' pieces but loads up perfectly in my test account.
So there's no problem other than something different about the USER accounts and I really can't work out what that could be. Anyone got any ideas?
I also have AME 5.5 in both accounts and they both work perfectly.

Oh, I've just realised that chucking away the AME prefs from (below) has solved the problem. Someone mentioned chucking away prefs in another thread but I must have chucked the wrong ones. So, if anyone else has this problem then try this...
USER Library > Preferences > Adobe > Adobe Media Encoder (chucked this whole folder way containing 5.5 and 6 prefs). New ones were made and both working perfectly
