User randomly disappear

Hey!, Hey! My user randomly disappeared today.. And now I can't log in to my mac since I have 0 accounts on my mac right now! What do I do!!??

If you want to preserve the data on the boot drive, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data, you can skip this step.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is not fully functional. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
1. Boot from the Recovery partition or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
2. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
3. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.

  • Permissions Randomly Disappearing/Reverting in SharePoint 2010

    Hi everyone,
    A couple of our SharePoint team sites have been experiencing an unusual phenomenon where user permissions randomly disappear or revert--all seemingly without any user involvement. I have inspected the Security Audit Logs for the past months, scouring permissions
    activity surrounding these events, but I have not been able to identify any user involvement that could have caused or even contributed to these issues. 
    One site had a folder whose entire permissions setting became blank. Another site's group ownership reverted to a previous user who moved to a different department several months ago.
    We do occasionally restore corrupted Sharepoint items from our DPM backups, but these particular sites and items have not been restored.
    I have been reading through several forums and online resources, but I haven't found anything definitive. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Enable Site Collection Auditing on the Site Collection (in Site Settings). There is an option to record change in user permissions/groups. You may also want the Edit Items option.
    This should give you a better idea of what is going on next time this happens.
    What patch level is your farm at?

  • My music store search bar randomly disappears ever since installing IOS7 on iPhone and Ipad.

    When using the "Store" link in the to left corner of the Music App to go to the music store to make a purchase, my music store search bar randomly disappear.  This started after installing ios 7 on both my iPhone 5S and Ipad.  When this happens I am unable to search for music to purchase.  App Store search bar for actual apps seems to work fine.

    Same here. I'm guessing what may have happened is that the HTML page in the app or the content on that page may have only partially loaded, and unfortunately there is no way to trigger a refresh of that page - either through any user activity like reopen the app, or any refresh button.

  • Site Actions Menu randomly disappearing

    Hi,
    We currently have a situation were the Site Actions menu/button randomly disappears for users that should have site owner permissions. The Site Actions menu will appear for a short while after assigning site owner permissions however will disappear shortly
    after. The only way I'm able to get it to display again is to remove owner premissions from the user then re-add them again.
    Has anybody seen this behaviour?
    Further information:
    Using SharePoint 2010;
    Using Claims Authenication, Trusted Identity Provider ADFS;
    Thanks,
    Ben

    Hi Ben,
    Please check whether there is a web part that is crashed on the site.
    Whether this issue occurred for all users who have site owner permissions.
    Please try to go to IE advance setting tab and reset the settings, compare the result.

  • Album Art Randomly Disappearing in I-Tunes

    Background: I have an old version of Itunes (6.01.03) and I am running Windows XP. My library consists of songs ripped from CD's, downloaded from artist sites, downloaded from blogs or ripped from stream/converted to MP3.
    Problem: The album artwork has been randomly disappearing from my mp'3 for quite a while. It is not limited to one type of file - download ones or ripped ones.
    Songs with an id tag of v2.2 seem to be fine. Tags at v2.3 seem to lose the artwork. So I change the album tags from v2.3 to none to v2.2, then add the artwork, the select the convert selection to Mp3 option. The file then reads "encoded with ITunes 6.01.03".
    This seems to work for a while. But the id tags eventually switch back to v2.3 and I lose the album artwork again.
    I have spent countless hours on updating the album information and artwork only to keep losing it. Any suggestions on what I can do to keep losing the artwork or should I just give up on adding the artwork?

    yeah, Apple doesn't post replies here, it is for user-to-user help.
    I think the v2.2 tags are your problem, and something else on your PC is changing the tags, not iTunes. iTunes is not that smart....
    I suspect Windows Media Player. It is installed on every PC, and the default iptions are to look things up on the internet. It can do this in the background, without you even thinking WMP has launched. Go in and look at your WMP options, set it to not update from the internet.
    In my case, I had disappearing artwork with v2.2 tags. Then I would run it through a little program to figure out beats per minutes, and the artowkr was gone - because the tags for v2.2 were wrong.
    After I converted everything to v2.3, disappearing artwork stopped.

  • Yahoo emails randomly disappearing in iPad

    I have a problem with Yahoo emails randomly disappearing when I use my iPad.  I found an old discussion regarding this issue here, but don't seem to find a fix or any recent update:  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1059223?start=0&tstart=0
    Basically, I started noticing about a month ago that I couldn't find anymore certain emails I had filed in folders.  At first I thought it was a fluke, but now it has happened 4-5 times (that I know of).  I am 100% positive that I did not delete the emails by accident.  As far as I can remember, I am pretty sure that all of the mails that are missing are ones that I filed into folders using the iPad (but not all emails filed into folders from the iPad are missing, only random ones).  Who knows how many other mails are missing that I didn't know of or how long this has been going on.
    For the moment, I guess I will stop filing mail using the iPad (only read mail on iPad, and then file later when I am at my PC).  But does anyone else experienced this and have any suggestions?

    Very new Mac user.  Just last month acquired my MacBook Air and a 4S phone.  Because I'm a newby, I thought it was my lack of familiarity with Mac that was leading to the randomly disappearing messages on my phone and PC.
    My experience is like others.  Messages are in various folders.  Messages are then dissappearing, sometime right before my eyes as I click on a folder with the phone.  I am not sure if I moved them to the folders on the phone or the PC, but I will try in future to just do it on the PC.  What has disappeared is not travel documents, but rather various misc. messages.  And yes, I am a RogersYahoo user.
    My old Dell PC has ironically helped me out a bit.  A while ago I used Outlook to access my Rogers Yahoo and it retrieved a number of messages.  All were stored safely on the Dell.  When I started losing them on the Mac system, at least I had the Dell to back me up.
    If anybody hears more from Apple or Rogers, I too would be very interested in the results.  E-mail access on the go was great until this problem arose.

  • I am using iCloud email and my emails are randomly disappearing before I can read them. They are not in any folders on my iPhone and I am having to call apple to have the last 7 days of email sent to me in order to retrieve what is being lost.

    I am using an apple email account and my emails are randomly disappearing before I get a chance to read them. They are not anywhere on my device, not trash, junk etc. The only solution from apple has been to resend me the past 7 days of email in order for me to retrieve the missing emails. This has taken me hours on the phone with apple support with no solution. I just don't know what to do. They have gone over the settings with me and nothing has solved the problem. I don't know where to start since it is happening on all my devices.

    Control-click on the background of the view all pages window and select "Preview Calendar" from the contextual menu.
    You can also save the pdf as a file to compare to the printed calendar.  If the two names are visible in the pdf file then the printed copy should show them.  Contact Apple for a refund.  Apple Print Products - Apple Store (U.S.)

  • Why are my iCal calendars randomly disappearing with all their corresponding events?

    Why are my ical calendars randonly disappearing? I updated to Maverick, but one disappeared before I did that update. I have 10 different calendars, each identified by its own color, example: "work" calendar is yellow, my personal calendar is green. Every month or so, one randomly disappears without my even being in the program or changing anything. Along with the calendar ALL its events are gone as well. None of those events show on my iphone, imac, ipad or macboook pro. They just vanish, along with many appointments I have scheduled, and their directions and info. Im SO FRUSTRATED! Im ready to go back to paper.

    Got it fixed cal got set for icloud on my iphone. now I can choose them in itunes.

  • Services for object buttons randomly disappearing from FB03

    Hello SAP Experts,
    We display an FI document via tcode FB03 (Display Document) and use the "services for object" buttons to attach documents via the "create attachment" button and also to view attached documents via the "attachment list" button.
    However, quite often when displaying the FI document after a document has been attached, the "services for objects" buttons are not displayed.  Just a blank toolbar appears.
    Later on the when the FI document is displayed again via tcode FB03 (Display Document), the "services for objects" buttons do appear and the attachments can then be displayed.
    As the attachments can be viewed sometimes, I would say that this issue is not related to security.
    Any idea's what maybe causing the "services for objects" buttons randomly disappearing???

  • When typing on my ipad 4, the keyboard randomly disappears!

    Okay, when I am typing on my ipad, for example this question, in the middle of me typing a word the keyboard will go back down and my finger will accidentally hit a link or something below the keyboard. Then I have to tap the screen again and resume typing. It will randomly disappear on me and it gets really annoying. Help!

    There is a "hide keyboard" icon toward the bottom of the keyboard.  Might you be tapping that icon?

  • Has anyone seen the TestStand 3.5 User Interface disappear during testing?

    The user interface disappeared while a test sequence was executing. The Windows Task Manager showed LabVIEW (8.2) and TestStand running but nothing was present on the taskbar for TestStand and the window could not be found. This has only happened once but I am being pressed to explain this hence the question.

    plf,
    By user interface you mean an operator interface?
    If this is the case, what operator interface are you using?
    Have you seen this several times?
    What kind of sequence were you executing?

  • Folders inside a share are randomly disappearing

    Hello,
    I am having a strange problem with folders randomly disappearing off my server share. Here is my current setup:
    XServe running 10.4 connected to 3.5 TB Raid Array via Fiber
    Folder inside RAID shared out for client access via AFP and SMB
    All clients have automount setup in netinfo.
    Clients work fine for about a week, then folders start randomly disappearing. Not files so far, only entire folders. If we try and recreate the folder, it says that the folder already exists, but no one can see it, even if I log in to the server console and access the folders directly on the raid.
    I am not very mac savvy, so I am a bit lost as to what I should do next. This would be easier to diagnose if the whole share would become inaccessible, not just pieces.
    Anyone have any suggestions?

    We just started experience disappearing files. Running Server 10.4.11 (build 8S169). It happens with Autocad files when running Autocad on Parallels. I've been having flaky permission problems on the server, so I am thinking it's time for a (sigh) re-install of the server software.

  • Bookmarks bar from other user randomly copied to my bar.

    Suddenly, the bookmark bar from my husband's side (other user) randomly appeared on my side in addition to the bookmarks already on my bar. How did this happen and what is the fix?  I did upgrade to Lion last week and purchased an iPhone 4s, synched with iCloud, but have not had any other problems so far. I only use Safari for browsing.

    Lynn...
    If you and your husband are using the same Apple ID and password for iCloud even though you have your own user account on the Mac, that could be why the bookmarks are trying to merge.
    Try this ...
    On the Mac open System Preferences > iCloud. Deselect Bookmarks then reselect then restart the Mac,
    On the iPhone, tap Settings > iCloud
    Switch Bookmarks off then back on then reset the iPhone.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
