Using old account name after it has been deleted

I deleted an account because I learned that the only way you could re-name the short name was by deleting the account altogether.
I had problems deleting the account from the admin account, even afer shutting off "fast users" and "auto login". THerefore, based on some other posts in discussion group, I used applications/netinfo manager/users then deleted the account name.
I re-started and sure enough the account I was trying to delete, was gone.
Now, I'm trying to go back and create the account again using the same account name, it own't accept it. I keep getting a message saying "Name is not available".
I'd like to create an account with the same name. Any suggestions??

In the NetInfo Manager, look for other instances of that name and delete them from the list of groups as well as from the membership of the remaining groups. Users and groups with a numeric ID below 501 should not be deleted. A tool called ChangeShortName can be used to change the short name of an existing account.

  • Site still starred after bookmark has been deleted

    I was clearing old bookmarks and noticed that one site still shows up in autocomplete and is starred even though the associated bookmark has been deleted. Also, when I try to visit the site and go to the Edit Bookmark dialogue box by clicking on the site, it redirects to the main site which is no longer starred. Deleted the site from my browser history does not get rid of the star either so it still shows up in autocomplete after being deleted.
    Please help me get rid of this site!

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Maybe this question has been found already, but I have yet to find the answer. How can I restore my bookmarks after it has been deleted from my 'bookmarkbackups' folder?

    So it has been a couple months now since I last cleaned up my bookmarks toolbar. And I could remember a couple of bookmarks tabs I wish I did not delete. I found some articles saying I could try restoring previous versions of my bookmarks from the dates of recent system restore points. But the earliest date I found was of only last week's. I've checked everywhere in my Firefox profile for anything that I could restore to date back into that time, but they too only tracked back as early as last week. I believe the automatic backups Firefox had made during that time has now long been deleted from the system in order to make room for my most current ones. How am I going to be able to retrieve those bookmarks when their aren't any backups available now to restore from?

    If you do not have backups of your bookmarks, either in the bookmarkbackups folder or saved elsewhere, then you can't restore your bookmarks.

    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

  • It is remebering login info even after it has been deleted and cookies removed.

    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • How to remove boot camp partion after windows has been deleted

    I have removed windows 7 from my mac book air. however the partition will not be deleted... how can I remove the partition.

    Hi,
    Usually the correct way to remove your Windows partition is to use the BootCamp Assistant again which should give you the option to remove the made Windows partition and revert back to one OSX volume.
    After that's done a reboot of your Mac might be advisable. After the reboot use the BootCamp Assistant again to make the Windows partition and then install the (hopefully correct) version of Windows.
    Only if that's not working (whatever the reason) :
    1) boot your Mac from your OSX install DVD
    2) choose your language and then 'ignore' (cancel) the installation
    3) from the Top Menu (Utilities) start Disk Utility (DU)
    4) in DU click on your harddisk (not any partition) in the left pane (the first item listed)
    5) in the right pane use the 'Partition'-Tab
    6) click to highlight on the ex-Windows partition you want to delete
    7) click on the small '-' Button at the bottom
    That should delete your former Windows partition
    After that's done successfully
    8) Drag the partition separator line until it encompasses the entire drive and then select apply.
    9) Quit Disk Utility
    10) reboot your Mac from your harddisk.
    Since you are 'fumbling' with your OSX partition you should consider having/making a backup of it before trying the a.m. procedure. Just in case.
    Regards
    Stefan

  • Desktop icons do not rearrange after one has been deleted

    I don't know what I am missing but when I delete items from the desktop, I expect the other items to rearrange themselves because I have 'snap to grid' turned on. But they don't and a right click followed by 'arrange according to...' is needed. I am missing something obvious?

  • Re-submitting my podcast feed after it has been deleted dosen't work?

    Hi
    I had recently submitted a podcast feed for my company. However I made a mistake in asking to have it deleted so I could make some changes.
    Now having completely revised my understanding of how the feed works, I have now re-submitted my feed:
    http://www.shogunaudio.co.uk/podcast.xml
    When the podcast was up before it ran fine, and was very popular. My feed is valid, I can subscribe using the 'advanced - subscribe to podcast' in iTunes. But for some reason it won't register. I have re-submitted the same feed 3 times and I don't get a 'duplicate feed' warning, it just says that it is submitted and I will be getting an email, but nothing happens.
    I desperately want to get this up and running asap, what is wrong here?
    Thanks

    I can't really say what is going on, but I don't think submitting from another account or changing the IP number will have any effect. Normally in this situation you should change the title slightly, and also rename the feed - as I suggested, you could call it podcast1.xml (so that the URL changes) - these are the parameters affecting it. The only other possibility I can think of is that you have managed to introduce some problem into the feed which is causing it not to be accepted (though if you can subscribe from the 'Advanced' menu this seems unlikely).
    Would you like to post the URL of the revised feed?

  • System does not reset asset retirement date for Depreciation Area specific transaction after area has been deleted

    Good day,
    I needed to create a new depreciation area in a live system. The depreciation area would not post to the GL, but would be used for tax purposes in a currency other than the local currency. When creating this area the asset values were translated at the system exchange rate which did not agree with the values of the manually maintained tax register. I proceeded by creating new transaction types that would only post to the new area, one of which was an asset disposal transaction, which would be used for downward adjustment of the APC value. I made my adjustments at the end of the previous financial year, but had to start over and proceeded to delete the depreciation area to allow me to start over.
    After reinstating the depreciation area, my original adjustments were removed, however the assets which APC values needed to be adjusted downward using the disposal transaction, was giving me the AA 478 Posting transaction is not possible (value date not allowed) error.
    I've reviewed the asset postings and there is no record of my original adjustment documents. The problem seems to be that field ANLA-ABGDT (Last Retirement Date), is still indicating the date of my previous adjustments and that this was not updated when the Depreciation Area was deleted and reinstated.
    Again, I do not have any documents which I can access or reverse to update this table. Is there any way to clear this field without reversing the disposal document?
    I'm also looking at implementing SAP note 1618286, to make error message AA478 a warning. I could not implement SAP note 533378 since it only supports component version 46c and we are currently running component verson 605.
    I would appreciate your consideration of my problem.
    Regards
    Marius

    If you are in Test System, you can use function module AA_AFABER_DELETE to totally delete the depreciation area (tcode SE37, specify chart of depreciation and depreciation area), After that recreate your depreciation area and run AFBN. But before you do that, have you created a retirement transaction type that limits the posting on your new depreciation area? If not create one.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks!

  • How do I get the music I bought from iTunes on my phone back after it has been deleted?

    After I bought all the music I tried backing it up on my computer but it didn't sync all the songs I had boughten. So when I went back to iTunes to just see if I could buy them all over again a box popped up and said that I had already purchased this song. So how do I get it back if it is not on my computer or on my phone?

    HT2519, look that up on support.apple.com in the search bar in the top right hand corner, it will teach you how to download past purchases to your iTunes library or whatever means you so chose through the article it should walk you through it. You ARE allowed to download past purchased music, but like someone previously stated, only in the USA.

  • Alarm reminder keeps on appearing months after event has been deleted...!!!

    Can anyone help me? I have got a reminder from 11th November 2005 that keeps on popping up on my screen, even though I have cancelled it months ago.
    When I hit the cancel button, the reminder disappears, but will then re-appear 24 hours later. This happens every day.
    If I hit the magnifying glass button, to take me to the event itself, then iCal comes to the front, but the date it highlights is 24th November 2005, NOT 11th.
    And when I look at the events on the 11th, the one I am reminded about is not even there. I deleted it in the hope that the reminder would stop nagging me.
    Curiously enough, even though I have all my iCal events and reminders synced up with my phone, this reminder does NOT appear on my phone, even though all other events do - even past events that I have set to remind me at a later date.
    How can I get rid of this reminder once and for all, but still keep the rest of my events and reminders intact? ie: I don't want to clear everything and start again.

    Yes - the necessary information is stored in the various ics files. But if in doubt, drag them to the desktop rather than deleting them - you can always put them back. I am not sure if this will solve the problem, but it seems a good place to start. If it doesn't work, we'll have to go digging in the calendar files. It could of course be related to syncing - I reckon most of the world's problems are
