Yosemite Spotlight shows other users' emails!
This is a very serious bug. I use two user accounts on my Mac, one for me and one for my girlfriend. The new Spotlight gives me mail results from my girlfriend's account.
Anyone else getting this?
I have the same problem since Mavericks - and it is also there on a new and fresh clean install of Yosemite.
I spend hours and days for fixing it - but nothing helped......
Heres a video - in german - but i think you will get it:

And here is an older thread with this problem:
Spotlight shows files / notes / ... of other users
Any ideas?
I still have this problem and it is making me speachless :-(

Sign in screen showing "Other User" and blank picture in Build 10049
In 9926 and 9974 builds, sign-in screen properly showed my picture and my account name and welcome. I don't use a password so it skips on to the desktop automatically. No problems. Starting with 10041, that screen shows a very big "Other
User" and doesn't show my picture. The various available Account Settings all show what should be there like in prior builds. There is only one account on my machine so there is no account listed as "Other User". I didn't complain
in 10041 because I hoped 10049 would cure this but it did not.
Any ideas?Yes, Yolanda, the screen looks like your example., The local policy logon disable instruction does hold. I tried it both enabled and disabled and didn't help. However, i made another account with the following results:
Upon Shutdown or Restart, I still get "Other User" with blank picture like your screenshot.
If I then "SIgn Out" which produces the Lock Screen and then click on the screen, I get the correct sign-in with my MS account and picture shown. First time I've ever been able to get that correctly.
If I change User's to my new test account, it shows properly with account info. If I then click on change user to my original account, it then shows the proper account info AND my picture as it should.
Other User never shows as an option on User list but continues to appear when Shutdown or restart is used!
Thank you very much for your continued interest. However, I don't believe either of us should waste any more time with this hoping that it will somehow disappear in the next build installation.

Spotlight searching other users
Hi,
I don´t know why but spotlight is searching the other user profiles and it even opens files from them. Can I stop this?
Thanks
Michaelno they are not! I tryed to repair the permissions using the disk utility. But this doesn´t seem to work. Do you have any idea what else I could try?

IMovie '11 viewer doesn't show other user's projects on external HD
I would like to free my wife's and my computer main harddisk from the lot of iMovie projects and events.
To do this I thought of copying all the projects and events to an external harddisk which then will attached either to my or my wife's computer.
I did this with 5 imovie '11 projects copied from my computer. My iMovie '11 does recognize the projects but when I attach the external harddisk to my wife's computer her iMovie '11 displays the harddisk and the folders in the project folders but the 5 projects are not displayed.
Is there a way to make them show up in my wife's (or any other person's iMovie '11 attached to the external harddisk) iMovie?I double checked everything and found out that on my wife's computer iMovie '09 was installed and not '11.
After installing imovie '11 everything is working as I'd like. -
How do I remove "other users" folder in mail and on my iPhone
On one account only I have "other users" folder that lists all of the folders of every user on the server. On my iphone I have to scroll past pages of other user folders to get to any folder named with anything after "O"
Does anyone know how to get the server to stop showing "other users" in both mail and iphone mail?Unfortunately that is really the only work around since
Comcast uses POP3 and not IMAP like Gmail or
iCloud.
I had received an email quite some time ago that they
were beta testing IMAP with select customers but I doubt
if it has gone much further than that. -
Spotlight shows completely deleted messages in iOS 8.1
Spotlight shows completely deleted email messages and sms (emails are deleted both from sent and trash) in ios 8.1.
Some emails marked with blue circle (like a new message) and I can open them and see attachments and text.
When open message without blue circle, only Mail App start (or Messages App in case of sms).
I noticed that the blue circle and ability to see all text and attachments in deleted letter appears in the case when during editing letter Swipe Down gesture was used.
Note that the problem affects only sent messages. Incoming removed correctly.
3 iPhones is fully restored as a new, 2 iPads - same situation.
Too bad about the confidentiality of data with this problem. And ios device storege too.I have the same issue on the iPad

Hi,
I am new to using EWS managed APIs.
Following is the issue:
1. I am using a service account e.g. [email protected]. This user is a global administrator and also has ApplicationImpersonation role assigned. (Sign into Online Office 365 account -> Admin -> select "Exchange" tab- > select Permissions
on the left panel -> create an impersonation role -> assign ApplicationImpersonation in Roles: and [email protected] in Members: -> Click on save)
2. Create a calendar item by other user for e.g. [email protected], and invite an attendee - [email protected].
3. In a c# program, I connect to EWS service using a service account - [email protected], fetch its calendar events. If organizer of an event is some other user - [email protected] then
I use impersonation in the following way to update the calendar event/item properties- subject, body text etc.
private static void Impersonate(string organizer)
string impersonatedUserSMTPAddress = organizer;
ImpersonatedUserId impersonatedUserId =
new ImpersonatedUserId(ConnectingIdType.SmtpAddress, impersonatedUserSMTPAddress);
service.ImpersonatedUserId = impersonatedUserId;
4. It was working fine till yesterday afternoon. Suddenly, it started throwing an exception "Access is denied. Check credentials and try again." Whenever I try to
update that event.
private static void FindAndUpdate(ExchangeService service)
CalendarView cv = new CalendarView(DateTime.Now, DateTime.Now.AddDays(30));
cv.MaxItemsReturned = 25;
try
FindItemsResults<Item> masterResults = service.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar, cv);
foreach (Appointment item in masterResults.Items)
if (item is Appointment)
Appointment masterItem = item as Appointment;
if (!masterRecurEventIDs.Contains(masterItem.ICalUid.ToString()))
masterItem.Load();
if (!masterItem.Subject.Contains(" (Updated content)"))
//impersonate organizer to update and save for further use
Impersonate(masterItem.Organizer.Address.ToString());
// Update the subject and body
masterItem.Subject = masterItem.Subject + " (Updated content)";
string currentBodyType = masterItem.Body.BodyType.ToString();
masterItem.Body = masterItem.Body.Text + "\nUpdated Body Info:
xxxxxxxxxxxx";
// This results in an UpdateItem operation call to EWS.
masterItem.Update(ConflictResolutionMode.AutoResolve);
// Send updated notification to organizer of an appointment
CreateAndSendEmail(masterItem.Organizer.Address.ToString(), masterItem.Subject);
masterRecurEventIDs.Add(masterItem.ICalUid.ToString());
else
Console.WriteLine("Event is already updated. No need to update again.:\r\n");
Console.WriteLine("Subject: " + masterItem.Subject);
Console.WriteLine("Description: " + masterItem.Body.Text);
catch (Exception ex)
Console.WriteLine("Error: " + ex.Message);
5. What could be an issue here? Initially I thought may be its a throttling policy which is stopping same user after making certain API call limits for the day, but I am still seeing this issue today.
Any help is appreciated.
ThanksYour logic doesn't sound correct here eg
2. Create a calendar item by other user for e.g. [email protected], and invite an attendee - [email protected]
3. In a c# program, I connect to EWS service using a service account - [email protected], fetch its calendar events. If organizer of an event is some other user - [email protected] then
I use impersonation in the following way to update the calendar event/item properties- subject, body text etc.
When your connecting to [email protected] mailbox the only user that can make changes to items within
abccalendar is abc (or ABC's delegates). If your impersonating the Organizer of the appointment pqr that wouldn't work unless the organizer had rights to abc's calendar. If you want to make updates to a calendar
appointment like that you should connect to the Organizers mailbox first update the original, send updates and then accept the updates.
When you impersonate your impersonating the security context of the Mailbox your impersonating so its the same a logging on as that user in OWA or Outlook.
Cheers

There are 2 Users on my iMac. Each User has their own email account. Both account Mailboxes show up in each User's account. If I delete a Mailbox in one account, does it delete the same Mailbox in the other Account?
If you click the - sign in Mail preferences, it will delete that mail account. If you just delete the Mailbox, that will just delete the Mailbox.
Each user can put their own email account information in Mail when logged into their User Account.
If you don't want the other user's mail account to show up in your mail application, then make sure the other user's messages are available to them when they are logged into their account and delete the other user account from Mail in your User Account. The other user can do the same when logged into their user account. Any messages stored in one locally will have to be transfered to the other's user account if it's not saved in their user login.
In addition, instead of deleting the account at first, highlight the account and open the Advanced Tab and disable the account. That email account will dissappear from Mail. Once you decide that you don't want the account, you can delete it. If you need to get back to it to transfer messages, just re enable it. -
Spotlight shows files / notes / ... of other users
Hello,
my spotlight search returns (sporadically, not always) files, notes, etc. of other users. I have iMac 27-inch Late 2012 with OS X 10.9.3 (13D65).
When I find results of other users, I don't have access to them so klicken on the results doesn't cause an action.
This occours on every user, not only system root. All privileges are default. I've found some google-results of users having the same problem just after a fresh install.
Some ideas? Is this a known bug?
Greetings

You have the root user enabled? I think that is generally frowned upon - it can cause all sorts of permissions errors. I'd expect Spotlight to obey whatever the local permissions dictate (if it is working as designed).
I would try resetting the user permissions for the home folders and then follow Linc's tip for rebuilding the index again.
Backup before you begin just in case…
Boot holding cmd+R. Recovery mode should startup (assuming you have a recovery partition).
Select Terminal from the Utilities menu.
Enter the word…
resetpassword
… & hit return.
The GUI app will open, select the main boot HD.
Select your user account in the popup menu.
Then click the 'Reset' button at the bottom right. It will "Reset Home Folder Permissions & ACL's"
Repeat for the other users.
Quit ResetPassword from the menu,
Quit Terminal

After upgrading to Yosemite, I don't receive email from Gmail users
Using a MacBook Pro, 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD internal hard drive. OSX v10.10.2
My primary email address is an .mac/.me/.icloud email address.
Recently upgraded to Yosemite. After doing so, I am having trouble receiving emails from Gmail users (I am not having trouble sending emails from my Gmail account, as many people have).
I asked 8 of my friends with Gmail email addresses to email me a test. I received 4 of these emails immediately after they were sent, the other 4 email took anywhere from 4 to 48 hours for me to receive.
Anyone else have this problem, and if so, any solutions? Any help is greatly appreciated.There have been various posts about delayed Gmail e-mail delivery to iCloud e-mail addresses, but so far, no solutions. Gmail uses a nonstandard form of IMAP e-mails, which may be causing the problem.

Exchange SBS2003: Email that is deleted in Outlook 2010 is not deleted on iPhone 4, or marked read after upgrading to 6.0.1. Win 7 64bit. 2 other users in our office with iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s aren't having this issue. They didn't upgrade to 6.0.1 though. Mail that is deleted or read on the iPhone 4 is deleted or marked read in Outlook 2010. So it's a one-way problem.

On an IMAC, how do you block other users id showing up on your wifi settings?
On an IMAC,
how do you block other users id showing up on your wifi network?Can you clarify what you mean?
If you're seeing multiple wifi networks as well as yours, that's normal. It will display any networks within range. It doesn't mean you're connected to them or that they're on your network.

OIM 9102: Send Email Notification to other user in a task
I created a process in OIM. In this process exist a Task: Manager Process. When this task will be completed for the user that be assigned. In the Notification Tab are able to send a email notification to a Assign User, Requester User, User or User Manager. But i need to send a email notification a other user different to them, for example: juan.perez, this user is in OIM.
I have read the following documents:
1.- http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E10391_01/doc.910/e10363/promgt.htm#BCECFGEJ
2 .- How to Send an Email Notification Upon User Creation via the Admin Console [ID 780394.1]
3.- OIM: An Example of Email Notification and Configuring it With a Resource Object Provisioning [ID 457836.1]
4.- Sending an Approval Notification Email with a Link Directly to the Approval Request? [ID 748447.1]
Or exist some way to do this, through java code.
I'm using oim 9.1.0.2 BP18 running on OC4J 10.1.3.5 on AIX 6.1 64-bit clustered install with two nodes, Oracle Database 10.2.0.4 on AIX 6.1 64-bit on RAC.Hi
You can use OIM email API to send an email from the java code. You can attach code on post creation user using entity adapter. Every time a user is created the email is triggered.
Here is the sample:
public EmailUtility(tcDataProvider dataProvider) {
this.dataProvider = dataProvider;
emailOper = new tcEmailNotificationUtil(dataProvider);
System.out.println("Email API instantiated successfully...");
public String sendEmail(String fromAddress, String toAddress, String body,
String subject) {
emailOper.setBody(body);
emailOper.setFromAddress(fromAddress);
emailOper.setSubject(subject);
emailOper.sendEmail(toAddress);
System.out.println("Email sent!" + subject);
return SUCCESS;

my apple ID is showing someone elses email address and not mine so when i want to buy or update apps it brings this other email address up. please can someone help how do i put it back to my email address?
First go here - https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ and login under the manage tab. Check your information and be sure it is all correct.
An AppleID is nothing more than an email address, so if you see another email address in the store, then someone has logged in with a different AppleID than yours. Did you let someone else use your iPhone?
