OS X V10.7 Lion :: Cannot Add Additional User
Apr 20, 2012
I just got a new OSX 10.7 Lion iMac Intel Desktop. Initially I created a user account for myself with admin rights. Now after some weeks, I am going back to System Preferences >> Users & Groups and trying to add an addtional user. However, the lock icon at the bottom of the window does not open when I click on it, and I cannot add, delete, or otherwise manage users. What do I need to get the lock to open so I can make changes and add an additional user?Â

This is what happens on my computer and I can't seem to get rid of the 'black' desktops with google chrome icon on them. There is no "X" sign to shut them down and as far as I can tell the only thing that works is if I either shut down my computer or quite google chrome which isn't too convenient.Is there another way to 1. prevent these 'black' desktops from apearing and 2. to get rid of them without shuting down the computer or quiting chrome everytime ?

My Macbook Pro would not boot into Lion boots into bootcamp no problem, with Lion it tries than the MBP shuts down, so I decided to try and clean install Lion, I tired both with internet recovery and with a bootable DVD I made with the Install.dmg file. Both methods gets to the end where I get an error saying cant install additional components.

I purchased App for MacBook. It is alternative to lock screen.Â
I set password etc followed instructions (no need of lecture me) and it has locked me out of my MacBook and the password I set up does not work...Â
Im just wondering if there is a way to delete this App without having to log in as the only other account on my MacBook is Guest. I can't use my Mac at all with this app as it will not allow me to enter my account

I'm trying to work on compiling a "family video" with clips from my siblings. They all use PCs and I'm the only Mac, but they're sending me Mpeg files that I can't open. I get a notification that I need "additional software" in order to open those files and get them working in iMovie.

unable to view user login in OS X Lion 10.7.3 startup. I had made some changes in icloud settings & by mistake must have checked some option related to username & password. Also when i turn my macbook pro on, i can see the grey background with apple logo, however it does not show my image & login password space. thus i'm unable login to my system.

I inadvertantly deleted a user that has some needed information. I did not elect to to create a compressed version of the user (wish I had) but I also didn't tell it to delete the user immediately. I selected "don't change the home folder" when deleting the user. I know where the user home folder is but I cannot access it. I am also nearly certain that the data is still intact because the Hard drive is far too full to be explained by my current user data. Â

I would like to import not only bookmarks but also extensions from another browser (better yet, if I can just access the same browser that another user is using on the same computer, without having to move things to the 'shared' folder under the 'users' , that would be the best)Also I would like to make all applications and everything from other users to be available for other users without having to put it into the shared folder. Is this possible?

I'm creating a new user account and moving my personal data over to it, because I want a fresh start with default settings. Both accounts are administrators. Will I have any permissions problems after moving my files? I don't want to find out that I can't access my data on the new account because I don't have the UNIX permissions for it. Â
Edit: I don't know if it makes a difference, but I forgot to add that I am moving my files from the old account to an external firewire drive, and then from the drive to the new account. Also, I'm running 10.7.3Â

It appears to not to be backed up by Time Machine - which can not show anything earlier than the latest version.It contains items that suggest that it is regularly used by Apple software (e.g., Safari - for bookmarks?)It appears to be used by some manufacturers (e.g., Garmin) for device software updates - including a very large one that used 2.3 GB and stayed there after the Garmin map update was installed. (I was running low on hard drive space, so I took a deep breath and deleted that 2.3 GB file)What negative consequences could occur from deleting items from that Caches folder? (Caches may be seen in Time Machine by opening the user's "home" older in Finder, holding down the option key while clicking Go then Library, then clicking Caches, then Entering Time Machine. After the window settles down, only the latest Caches window and one other mysterious item will remain.) I am using OS 10.7.3 on a MacBook with 1.83 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, purchased in December 2006.

We have several user accounts setup on our family imac. Is it possible to have two or even three user accounts running at the same time where I can just quickly switch between the accoints without having to log in and out? A second and seperate question: Is there any SW that can monitor my childs account activity that runs in the background and just sends me a report on what has been done on the computer?Â
