Why is finder switching between my old username and my new one?

After changing my username finder keep switching between my old one and my new one rapidly. I've tried logging out and back in and rebooting, but other than that, I have no idea how I might fix this. A video of the issue can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oU661gxKtqY

I think you have Fast User Switching switched on, and it's causing your user name to toggle like you were logged into both accounts at the same time.
Try and turn it off, just to see if that cures the problem.  Go to System Preferences>Users&Groups>Click on lock to unlock, then on Login Options.  Check off Fast User Switching.  I have no clue if this is a cure, but let's see.

  • Difference between my old Macpro and the new one?

    1.) Would you consider the new Two 3.2GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon (8-core) a minor or major upgrade from what I currently have (I use it for Final Cut Pro):
    Mac Pro Dual-Core Intel Xeon 3 GHz
    Number Of Processors: 2
    Total Number Of Cores: 4
    L2 Cache (per processor): 4 MB
    Memory: 4 GB
    Bus Speed: 1.33 GHz
    2.) Can I use my old harddrives and RAM in the new Macpro?
    Thanks.

    The new ones will be substantially faster than yours because it has 8-cores instead of four, a faster Frontside Bus, and faster RAM speed.
    You could use the same RAM, but since the new ones can accommodate a faster RAM module you would cause the machine to run slower by using the slower RAM from your old machine.
    You can use the same hard drives since both machines support SATA drives.
    On the other hand you could just be happy with what you have! It's probably more than you need.

  • Is there any difference between the old iPod and the new one?

    Hello everyone,
    first of all i'd like to thank you for reading my post:)
    My question is a simple one, i bought the new iPod Video 30 GB, and i came across a couple of questions while i was heading home with my new toy.
    How can i actually see the difference between this my new iPod and the one that they where selling before?
    Is there any visible difference amongst those two that i can notice?
    Thanks once again.

    The new update has a scroll feature on it to make it easier to search for songs on your ipod. It also lets you control the maximum volume your ipod can reach. It has better video quality as well. It lets you play games on your ipod (you have to download them from the Muisc Store)
    and thats about it! Have fun with your new ipod!

  • Differences between old JavaFX and the new one: some questions

    Hi,
    I'm coming back to my JavaFX studies after 2/3 months and I see that some things are different.. Now, I have some questions:
    1) I see that javafx.ui was deprecated or rewritten in favor of javafx.ext.swing. Why there are a javafx.application.Frame and a javafx.ext.swing.SwingFrame? Which one should I use?
    2) Neither javafx.application.Frame or SwingFrame has the "*undecorated*" attribute that javafx.ui.Frame has. I got this feature only reimplementing createWindow() function like this:
    function createWindow(): java.awt.Window {
           //this is a trick, because Frame don't has a undecorated attribute.
           var f: java.awt.Window = super.createWindow();
           (f as javax.swing.JFrame).setUndecorated(true);
           return f;
    }Should I report this as a bug/RFE in [http://bugreport.sun.com/bugreport/] ? Where should I report bugs and RFEs to JavaFX?
    3) Why frame's opacity don't work in Linux? Is this a Linux restriction or only a "not yet implemented" feature?
    My java -version:
    java version "1.6.0_10"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_10-b33)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0-b15, mixed mode)
    4) Where is that cool feature that permits me to easily animate in JavaFX doing only x = [1..100] dur 1000? Now, I need to use this more advanced (and more complicated) Timeline object.
    Timeline {
            keyFrames:Timeline [
                    KeyFrame{time  : 0s values: x => 0.0},
                    KeyFrame{time  : 2s values: x =< 180.0 tween Interpolator.LINEAR}
            ]//keyFrames
    }//Timeline;Sorry for the amount of questions.
    TIA,
    Bruno E. Grossi

  • Can I transfer Lightroom education version 4 between an old computer and my new computer

    Can I transfer the education version of Lightroom 4 from the old computer to my new computer, or will I have to purchase a new version of lightroom?
    Lightroom would then be removed from the old computer.

    Tthe Lr licence allows you to install it on two computers at any one time. If you need to have it on both, that's okay.

  • Bought new computer- how do i get all my itunes song off old computer and onto new one?

    i recently purchased a new computer and installed ITUNES on it.  Once I put in my APPLE ID all my purchased songs showed up (songs i purchased through ITUNES on my old computer).  Here is the problem, my old computer has around 800 songs on it from cd's that I owned and downloaded those songs into ITUNES.  Now i want those songs on my new ITUNES on my new computer but don't know how to get them there.  I have tried the following so far:
    - Tried syncing my ipod and ipad to the new computer but each time I do this the new computer ITUNES wants to wipe out the 800 songs and just put on the transfered purchases songs. 
    - Tried 'home sharing'.  When I did home sharing with both computers on and ITUNES opened all the songs showed up on my new computer but as soon as I closed out ITUNES on the old computer the 800 songs went away on the new computer and it went right back to the songs I purchased.
    Please someone tell me there is an easy way to take all these songs I have on ITUNES on the old computer and transfer them to my new computer and ITUNES without having to bust out all these old cd's and sit there and re-burn them all on the new computer. 
    I have in addition to this all ready authorized my new computer with ITUNES so that is good to go.  Any help would be appreciated...

    Are they not on your new computer after you restored your iTunes backup?
    Didn't have a backup?
    Unlike music you can download apps multiple times. Go to each app, download it (ignore the price) and after you click it will tell you that you've already purchased the app and ask if you want to download it again.

  • UNINSTALL OLD HP AND INSTALL NEW ONE

    I want to uninstall my HP 2050 and install new HP 4510.  How do I do this?  I am 84 alone visually impaired and need simplest explanation.  thank you.

    Hello @airlinelady , I hope you are well
    I will do my best to help you uninstall your 2050 and install your new printer.
    Before I provide any instructions, I will need to know which Operating System you are running on your computer. All you need to do is click this link - Whats My OS, and when the windows pops up, it will tell you which Operating System you are running (Windows 7 for example).
    Also, I cannot find the printer you mentioned you want to install. Please check the model number of the printer and please clarify the information. This link will help you find the model number: How Do I Find My Model Number?
    Please write me back with those two pieces of information and I will help with uninstalling and reinstalling your printers.
    Have a wonderful day

  • Whats the difference between the old iCloud and the new iCloud drive?

    Can anybody explain the difference between the two?  The new iCloud drive does nothing new, same as the old iCloud. 

    Did you read the page that Peter provided? See bold text in paragraph below - you open an iCloud enabled app to see the files.
    Storing files in iCloud is simple. Just as it should be.
    To upload your files to iCloud, simply drag them into the iCloud Drive on your Mac running OS X Yosemite or PC running Windows 7 or later. Or start a new document using an iCloud-enabled app on your iOS device. Then you’ll be able to access those documents from all your devices.

  • Update a column keeping old values and adding new one

    I have to update a column...
    Select * from test;
    RULE_NBR TYPE_TEXT
    30     AAX,AAR,AAV,AAB,AAK
    40     BBD,WWN,AAF,AAB,AAK
    now I have to add BBB,WWW where rule_nbr = 30 and CCC,TTT where rule_nbr = 40
    so this update stmt will do...
    UPDATE TEST
    SET type_text = 'AAX,AAR,AAV,AAB,AAK,BBB,WWW'
    WHERE rule_nbr = '30';
    update test
    set TYPE_TEXT = 'BBD,WWN,AAF,AAB,AAK,CCC,TTT'
    where rule_nbr = '40';
    Just wondering is there any other way to update the same

    update test
    set type_text = type_text||decode(rule_nbr,30,',BBB,WWW',40,',CCC,TTT')

    - If they are in an iPod backup then restore from that backup. See the restore topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    Go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and see what backups and dates are listed.
    - If they are in the iTunes backup then get them from the backup by:

    - If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
