OS X V10.7 Lion :: Login Screen File Location 10.7.4?
May 10, 2012
It looks like the most recent revison to OS X, that being 10.7.4 moved, or otherwise changed the way the system displays the background image for the login screen. I use a custom image file for mine, and now that same file does not display in 10.7.4 The file (my coustom image) is still there, but it looks like OS X does not use that file anymore.This is the file name:[URL] how to customize the login screen background in the new build?

How can I change the location of files created with the screen grab features of OS X Snow Leopard ? I tried to play with the "Keyboard" control panel, but I'm always getting an error when I try to capture a screen picture (something like : "can't write file to the specified location"). I really don't know what is that "specified location" and how to change it. Any idea ?

MacBook Pro OS X 10.8.5 date and time set automatically to use a network time server (domain controller). After a few weeks of the end-user utilitizing it on their home network, the time reverts back to January 6, 2012. How can I set a secondary location if the first location is unreachable?

I have 3 servers in my office. I have plan to configure these three together in my office. My plan is one server just only for login purpose and other two to keep the home folders and shared folders.the function is when one network user log in to one client machine, it just login(by using first server)and disconnect from first server and connect to the either two (means direct to the homefolder i created either of two server). Means first server as login server and other two are file servers.

I have a mid-2010 MacBook Pro and I've noticed several freezes on the login screen: it gets on the login screen and the multicolored spinning ball appears and you are not able to authenticate.. The only thing you can do is to force a shutdown with the power button. I always see this messages before the forced shutdown:
29/06/12 21:53:05,000 kernel NVDA(OpenGL): Channel exception! exception type = 0x6 = Fifo: Parse Error

I recently found out you can create custom login screen pictures and remove the apple logo and so on.A part I also loved was the login message. How to alter it so it could be made larger, text change and have new line capabilities (rather than having to space bar of to the end?)

when I tried to launch the macosx lion, after display the login window, the whole window become black.
Then I inject the U-Disk that has MacOSX Lion Installer in it, after the white screen, it become black too. So I can not re-install macosx.
Then I tried press `shift` at login. It also didn't solve the problem. At last I tried the single user mode. It appears some problems:
... USBF ... The IOUSBFamily is having trouble enumerating a USB device that has been plugged in. It will keep retrying. (Port 4 of Hub at 0X24000000)
no interval found for . Using 8000000

A machine we have has 4-5 user accounts on it. The login screen GUI just has one user visible and I can't figure out how to log with my user ID and password. There aren't many places to click & I've tried pretty much every thing I can think of to log in as a different user. Am I missing anything obvious? Is there a chance that only certain accounts are enabled for logging in after a reboot?

I just noticed that my User Account Picture does not appear on my Login Screen in OS X 10.7.4 Lion. It never has and I just noticed on another Screen shot of someone else's login screen that their login picture is showing. I kind of like it. Can anyone tell me how to get it to display there? My computer was originally set to autologin when I first got it but I set it to require name and password.

I just noticed that on my login screen, "Guest" appears even though it is disabled. I have not tried to run it, but when I do click on it I get the message that the computer will reboot into the "Guest" mode. I stopped at that point. This can't be normal.

Is there a way to disable or hide the sleep button at the login screen? I am trying to send updates and/or commands from ARD.... But the end users are putting the computers to sleep by pressing the sleep button. This is causing the ARD updates/commands to fail. The computers and severs are all Lion OSX. If I can disable the sleep button at login then I can send the updates/commands. I normally only do the updates/commands when there is no user logged in.So I am not concerned with the case where the user is already logged in and puts the computer to sleep. I have already setup an MCX in WGM for the Energy Saver.

I recently updated my MB to OSX Lion 10.7.4. I had to re-apply my custom menu bar and icons (as usual), but the first thing I noticed was that the login window was back to that disgusting linen texture.I thought the update just replaced the file, (didn't happen before), so I went to /System/Library/Frameworks/Appkit.framework/Versions/C/Resources/NsTexturedFull ScreenBackgroundColor.png. And then the file was the same, my previous login window.
So the question is: Where is the new login screen texture stored? I can change the mission control background, but no amount of goolging or anything provides accurate and working information to replace the login screen on 10.7.4.Why would Apple break this all of a sudden? The worse case scenario would be that Apple decided to troll and draw the login screen programmatically. Which should never be the case...

Hi! Im new to the forums but i really need help with something and i was hoping someone here could help me out. So I just installed Tech Tool Deluxe onto my macbook and then shut it down later. I went back to use it again and when i turned it on a login screen appeared asking me to put in my password. I did that and the screen turned blue (looking like it was loading) and then went back to the login screen. Every time i put in my password it just takes me back to the login screen. I have had my mac for a while and i dont want my hardrive to get wiped out so what do i do? Thank you for looking

I have a my iMac set to require login after it sits idle for a period of time. When I return and move the mouse or hit a button on the keyboard the login screen is simply black with the login field in the center. Q: Is there a way to change the color or set a background image for this screen? It is not the same screen that appears if I log out...the one with the gray linen with Apple logo. It is just plain black.

I just literally updated my macbook pro to the latest version of Lion, today 4/3/12 and now it's just stuck on the main log in page for lion. As in, I type in my password, it thinks for two seconds, goes black, and has the log in page again. It just loops. No end in site.I've rebooted in safe mode, run disk utitily, and repaired the disk... but no dice, still. It repairs the disk, fine right? When I reboot in regular mode, it just goes back to the password/login screen loop.

Apple writes in its OS X Lion screen sharing description that: "You can remotely log in to a Mac with any user account on that computer and control it, without interrupting someone else who might be using the computer under a different login."
Unfortunately, this is not true in my case: When other users are using my 2011 iMac for webbrowsing or DVD watching and I log in on my own acount from my macbook pro, video will stop playing, the spinning wheel sometime appears. The system does not really crash, but wil respond very slowly and in fact is not useable until I as remote user stop my activities or log out. This is not how it should be, especially as the iMac's CPU, memory and network load are very low according to activity monitor's information.

This is the first time I've encountered this. Upon cold booting the machine it went directly to the legacy Mac OS X Server login screen from before the upgrade to Mavericks. It would not let me login with current credentials. I had no choice but to hard power off. It returned to normal operation on restart.
It could be a possible bug.
