OS X :: Not Allowing To Create Mysql Account
Mar 24, 2009
I am trying to create on my Macbook a mysql account but it doesnt allow it. I suspect it is the same one in the "/etc/passwd" file: _mysql:*:74:74:MySQL Server:/var/empty:/usr/bin/false I am curious though why in that same file I dont see my normal login account. Where is the 2nd list of users? Is it a plist file somewhere? Also anyone know of a utility that shows all the users including root and all the other special accounts in one place?

I mistakenly clicked on "never for this site" when asked if Safari should remember the password and and ID. How do I obviate this allowing password and account to be remembered?

OK, so my email has been changed to a new account. Told to keep old account and settings on computer as to not lose old emails on mac. Â
Set up new account with same email (some password security errors side) but now cannot change to new account to sent emails as mail only lets me select the email address to send from and not the mail account.

Whenever I go to download a program, it asks for a password but I have forgotten the password due to it being changed several times. How do I recover/reset it so I can allow downloads?

Working on a 2011 Macbook Pro with 10.7.3.I"ve setup many other macs with the same build and they all have created the mobile account when logging in for the first time, but this one will not allow the mobile account to get created.I'm connected to the line that gives me LAN access. I can log in with my own credencials and that works fine.I suspect it's the way the AD account is setup on the server but I'm not an admin for that. The same account sets up fine on a Windows box. Once I log in for the first time, it goes directly to the desktop. Basicly a local account but no user directory is created. With Fast User Switching turned on I see that it's showing someone elses name there, not the user that I logged in with. i.e. It should show 'joe jones' but it's showing 'fred smith'
Can't get screen grabs because there is no access. Can't show the FInder drives for the same reason, even if I go make the user an admin from a local admin account.I've seen some fixes in the forums but nothing works. I could just give in and create a local account an leave it at that, but that is not a fix

I bought this imac g3 about 4 months ago and thought that maybe it was time to put on some new apps. I go to do it and it says I can't because I'm not the admin. I have no install disks or anything. I looked through the files and found out it was from a high school before they retired it, must have been in the principles office as the 700mhz g3 is in great shape. So how do I create a new account and make it the admin?

Did an archive and install of Leopard then installed Snow Leopard. 90% of Video sites would not work. Uninstalled and reinstalled Flash. Uninstalled ShockWave, tried to reinstall received message could not reinstall with 10.6.1. Attempt to install adobe air, received this message: "couldn't write the application to hard drive - please verify and try again." performed verify disk, disk permissions, repair permissions all ok. Attempted to install Air again, same message.
Tried to use Time Machine to open Safari from a week ago, received message: I did not have permission.
Using Macbook Pro, 2g memory, 80g hd, with 42g free.
Backed up on ext. HD,
One more, getting a lot of spinning wheels when using Safari that causes a lockup and hard re-start.
I have an expensive piece of software that uses adobe air and I create videos for my business and I'm not able to do so now. I just logged off of my admin account and logged on with a guest account. Video and flash seem to be working with the guess account. I didn't check adobe air or TM. How can I create a new account and move the important apps, files, docs, etc. that I need from the main account to the new one. Al of my business is setup on the mail account, emails, downloads etc.

In Messages, when i want to create a AIM account (like my other two Mac). I go to, Preferences, Internet account, add a other account, "Other messages account..." and click Continue. But in the next dialog box AIM is not visible (just Google Talk, Jabber and Yahoo are visible but not AIM !!) from the Account type drop down (in my two other Mac with exactly the same settings i can see one more menu in the drop down with AIM...) but not with my last computer.

When I log in during the "order prints" sequence, it then pops up "Create a New Account" set of fields. I tried filling those out with my existing account info, then it gets into a continuous loop with the server, probably confused because I already have that account. I shut down Aperture and tried to order via iPhoto - no problem.

Tried out the App Store today, it looks cool. Way cooler than expected, I actually like it. I decided to go on a downloading spree of FREE apps. Now I have an Apple ID, but I've never filled out the credit card info. I will not be using the App Store for anything paid, I don't want to put in my credit card info, is there any way I can create an account without giving Apple my CC details? Cons: seems pretty hopeless at detecting installed apps. Apparently I don't have GarageBand or Keynote installed. Ah well.

The problem iswith my limited knowledge of Apple Mail, I have to create an account for each one. Time consuming and somewhat unnecessary..What I would like to do is have an account that downloaded from the server more trhan one account:Â Example url...Can I do this in Apple Mail with one account?

I just bought a new Macbook Pro 2.4 and starting fixing it with only fresh installs. I installed the OS X 10.5 (x86_64) pak. It was running fine until now.
The start/stop in the pref.pane don't work and if I do a "mysql start" in the terminal I get:
Quote:
MacBookPro:~ matsaki$ mysql start ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
I tried to reinstall but it did not help. What's bugging? And what to do?

I downloaded a the newer version directly from mysql and made a install. Now I can't stop mysql from running. I throw away the strat/stop in prefpane too. But as soon as I stop mysql it restart's after 3 seconds??
I am wondering if I have 2 mysql running also. The original in the box and the new one. Now I'm at a stage where I have to solve this problem and I am truly not good with UNIX andMySQL commands to see what's wrong or what to do.
Again I almost don't know anything how to use the terminal.

I have Xcode 4.3.2 downloaded from MacApp store. However, it didn't set my environment for development libraries at all. So I included /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/ in PATH so it can find common utilities like make, cc, etc. I have installed mysql-5.5.23-osx10.6-x86_64 from MySQL's DMG archive. That went smooth - I am able to start and stop the server. Get in using mysql command line client interface and execute queries, etc. Perl came preinstalled with 10.7.3 Lion. Version of perl is 5.12.3. I am now trying to install DBD::MySQL driver for interfacing with perl and ran into issues. According to MySQL documentation, I first tried to install this driver using -Â
shell> perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan> force install DBD::mysqlÂ
But this failed with make errors (the error is same as reported further below). Then, after days of googling, I found the original post by etresoft on installing this driver. I followed the steps documented in that post (reproduced below for easy reference). My comments in italics. Download the MySQL Perl driver. Done. My version of DBD happens to be 4.021.Â
Extract the archive with:
tar xvf DBD-mysql-4.021.tarÂ
Move into the directory:
cd DBD-mysql-4.021Â
First, fix the MySQL client library. (credit) For Lion, type:sudo install_name_tool -id /usr/local/mysql-5.5.14-osx10.6-x86_64/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib /usr/local/mysql-5.5.14-osx10.6-x86_64/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib Done. No issues.

I want to delete a previous account and create a new one. Unfortunately, when I go to System Preferences > Accounts, it is blank! It is completely empty, devoid of anything but a title that says Accounts. I have tried the following: Restarting; trying to access it on a different account; accessing Accounts through the help viewer, View menu, right-click on it's Dock icon, and through Spotlight search. In all cases, I get a blank Accounts screen. Also of note, the usually illuminated "Back" button on the upperleft isn't illuminated. All that's illuminated is the "Show All" button, which takes me back to System Preferences. I Verified Disk permissions. I tried to Verify Disk and discovered that it says it needs repair. This may or may not be the cause, but for now I can't use my Install CD because the drive is broken. (It keeps spitting out all CDs/DVDs I put in.)

I'm migrating the admin side of my life to my iMac. I am using Mac mail for my mai, this includes a Gmail IMAP account and a POP3 account for my meandering ISP. The IMAP one loads up fine with the IMAP folders there under a sub set of folders for the account.But the POP3 account won't let me create folders within it nor does it have a subset like the Geekwolf one you see below.What do I need to do to get it to have folders, I need to be able to sort incoming mail, but at the moment, I can't.My ISP does have an IMAP setting, but I don't want to have the mail sat about on a server.Â

I'm looking for a Mac desktop application that will allow me to edit MySQL databases that are located on a web server. Kind of like PHPMyAdmin, only as a desktop Mac application.
Do any such applications exist?
