Unwanted name changes and privilege

I use OS X 11.5 in a MAC PRO early 2008 with several internal hard drives. Recently, I tried to put a file of my office in my hard dive record to start and couldn't do it up to what I had provided my admin password.  I had never run in before. I went to 'get info' for this hard drive and noticed that when he said "admin", "Read Write", he said, 'the wheel' 'read only '.  Well, I changed the privileges to where I could do what I wanted to do. I'm the only person using this computer. I would like to know if anyone knows the unusual behavior and what course of action should I take to prevent this inconvenience doesn't happen? Thank you.

The behavior is not uncommon; It's normal. Permissions are defined for your protection like that you shouldn't change them, and if you change anything in the top level of the boot volume. Your personal files are part of your home folder, which is represented by an icon of the House with your name in the sidebar of a Finder window.

  • Full name change event is not get fired

    Our users IOM are automatically provisioned to OID using OID box connector. Provisioning works as expected. Now I'm going to put in place the event "Attribute of change", so that any changes made to the IOM users get implemented in OID. All change events work correctly until now except 'change name '.

    My "User OID" process has a task "name complete change" configured with adapter adpOIDMODIFYUSER. The AttrName mapped to 'Full name' and AttrVale is mapped to the full name of UserDefinition.

  • The file names changed in wingdings, including the file extension and I can't delete, change them, open, etc. Here are the pictures.

    Have (had) a file with multiple files it contains with pictures in each file.  A week ago the pictures were there.  Now, the names are replaced by wingdings as names and file extensions.  When I try to open it, it is not accessible and that the file name, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect.  When I try to delete it, it says that the file name you specified is invalid or too long and specify a different name.  When I try to rename it, it tells me that if I change the file name extension, the file may become unusable.  If I try to change anyway, it says I've specified file name is not valid or too long.  Only tried for the name 1.  I did a restore in the case where a program interfered with that.  However, nothing has changed.  All of the suggestions.

    You can download and try to delete the file Unlocker http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtmlwilh.  Although it is not designed for this particular circumstance, it may very well work in all cases, as it has been very successful in a wide variety of situations are not specifically highlighted in the directions (where do not work the normal Vista options).  NOTE: Some antivirus flag programs this program as a malware, but it is a 'false positive' and is safe to use perferctly.  My own software to flag, but several other well-known software products it clean and the warning is included in the documentation of the program.

    I wish there was a way to save the images, but at this point, it seems that the only option is to delete because you can't rename files EHF (if this option is available-I hope that work above).  Unfortunately, System Restore does not affect the files of data, so even if a program caused this, System Restore can eliminate the cause, but it would not restore the files to their previous names.

    If you have Vista Business, Vista Ultimate or Vista Enterprise, you can be lucky because they retain the files called snapshots http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Previous-versions-of-files-frequently-asked-questions.  It can be used to recover previous versions of files that have been changed or deleted accidentally.  Here's how: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-vista/features/shadow-copy.aspx.

    If you have Vista Basic or Premium of Vista, you don't have a shadow, but there is a free program for you that does essentially the same thing called Shadow Explorer: http://www.shadowexplorer.com/.  I suggest that you download and implement as soon as POSSIBLE to protect you if you accidentally delete or modify a file.  It will not help you in this instance, but it can help save the next time.

    I'm more concerned about why this has happened in the first place and prevent it from happening again.  I saw file names change before, but never of wingdings which then do not let you open, edit, delete, or rename.  We will check some of your system files: go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

    Type sfc/scannow, go and let it run.  It will scan and try to correct some of your system files.  If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.  If you find any these corrupted files, try to post them here.  Maybe we can replace the good files on the disc.

    While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run.  It will scan and try to solve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a cause.

    If this does not work, then please post repetitive errors in Event Viewer about the name change (Start / Control Panel / administrative tools / Event Viewer).  Here's how to use Event Viewer: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic40108.html.

    If this does not work, you will need to do a repair/system upgrade using the Windows Vista Installation disc authentic (you own or that you can borrow from someone).  Here is the procedure: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-vista.html as well as the upgrade from an earlier version of the Windows section of the following: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918884.  Although this will not affect your data, settings or programs, you should always back up your data before you start just be on the safe side. If other procedures do not work, it is almost certain to work - but it will probably not fix your renamed files.  You can have a lot of updates to re - install (including all you need to remove service packs).  If the version on system with SP1 or SP2 preinstalled cane and the disc is an earlier version, then you will need to do a slipstream drive as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/151606-vista-sp1-slipstream-installation-dvd.html.

    I hope one of these procedures can solve your problem.  If this isn't the case, after return and we will try something else.  Return message anyway so we know how it turns out.

    Good luck!

  • Email and name changed

    I got an email and a name in the profile, I opened first to use Kuler. I then wanted to change the name of my wife so that she could have the credit for the color schemes she did. I advanced and passed the email while I was there. Now, connect us with the new e-mail and none of the color schemes she does are listed under his name. Seek us the previous name and find the colors still exist, but we cannot open the original user.

    I thought that the name change would simply change the name and email does not delete the original user. These colors can be moved into the new user?

    We have discussed this issue with 2 accounts and it is related to authentication. Your original email account is no longer a connection accepted on Adobe.com. Either set up a new account with the original e-mail or log into the new account and him switch back the email to your original e-mail in the account of your editing area. You should get access again with your old email. Let me know if this does not work.

  • Change of privilege HD now Mac Mail does not open

    Couple of questions, self-inflicted:

    I changed the privilege HD read-only for everyone no access and then click on "apply to the included items. I released on bail after a few minutes, change my mind with a reboot. I now get the re-boot, the pop-up "library should be rebuilt to open applications. I keep having to enter my PW for this.

    In addition, Mac Mail now does not open. It is a big problem and I don't know where to start.

    I repair permissions. Is there an easy way to return to the previous default permissions and privilege by default to make things work as they were before?

    Can you make a different Get Info and change everyone else read-only?

    First try and see if that fixes the Mail. If this is not the case, here are a few ideas more troubleshooting.

    Try a reboot.

    Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.

    Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

    Isolate a problem by using a different user account

    If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

  • Wireless & padlock device name change?

    WHAT is happening with my Sony blu - ray?

    Months my Sony BDP-S570/BX57 works perfectly with my Sony Bravia.

    But all of a sudden I can't connect with the blu - ray wireless and the name of the device has changed and has been locked. Also, I can't find information on my problem.

    For some reason my linksys connection now now appears with a padlock and a new name. Instead of just being linksys, it now says linksys SES 26790 and there is a padlock included. I have not installed any security on my router or modem. What is going on?

    When I try to connect it asks for a security key. I have NO IDEA what the security key is... is this a code? It is located anywhere on my computer?

    Any help much appreciated... Thank you!

    I'm on a Macintosh under Snow Leopard. I noticed that all the help files in the Sony help links are ONLY for Windows systems! It is a shameful failure of Sony to recognize that there are even Macintosh users.

    Well in case anyone else has this problem, I can say that I have contacted Sony support. They have not the slightest idea basically. I also told them that since their help online site has no instructions from my router and the Mac OS, they should add a. Seeing that there are more devices than any other OS Mac Wireless, I don't know why this is.

    But as for my problem, I tried a lot of different things. Finally, I unplugged the TV Sony and the Blu - ray. That seemed to work. Laughing out loud!

    Hey Magb...

    I suggest you check out this example

    It teaches you how to change a file path programmatically according to the date that the data acquisition; It also uses a State of the machine do.

    This way you will have only one file per month even if your VI works with non-stop for 5 months straight...

    You would have to change to acquire your data and store it in the path you want, because it stores in 'My Documents'

  • Rotate the names Net and Bus

    1. is there a way to rotate the net names and/or names of bus to follow the thread if it slides vertically? The shift/R command does not work. (Version 10.1 Power Pro).

    2. names may be off grid? There is no reason to snap a name to the grid. There are times when the name is crowded, or on an adjacent line. It seems very little professional and sloppy.

    Thanks for the help,

    Scotty544

    Scotty544,

    1 there is no support for rotated text (vertical) currently in v10.1.   The only support existing within components where you can rotate the name of pin (horiz/green), but this won't help you with the names of wiring.

    2. I agree with what you say with the net name labels - they don't behave well when rewire you / move threads.   You can lock, but if you move the wire or rewiring that they don't change very much at all.   For simulation work, I generally recommend leaving the net names enabled, however if you are planning to print your diagram for PCB layout purposes or documentation, you can universally turn labels (options-> properties sheet-> Circuit [tab]-> name [region]) and set it to 'Hide All' or 'using the specific setting Net '.   Note the use of the net specific parameter will force through the diagram, then choose threads are visible.

    Another thread of labelling approach...

    In general, I recommend the use of text (Ctrl + T) or observation points (location-> comment) to specific key within the circuit for documentation purposes.   Also, for the connections that need to go elsewhere (such an escape of connector), you can use the functionality of virtual wiring (netnames need all display or use Net specific setting) or you can use the external page (Place->-> stop Page Plug connectors) connector...   Page connector is typically used to connect to, of course, the connections off-page... If you place a link second off-page down and try to adjust the "RefDes" parameter to match the first manually - double-clicking a message will appear saying "all components must have unique benchmark indicators" and the action will be prevented... however it is a little trick that can be used to connect to the connectors on the same page.   When you place the second connector off-page down, go to the spreadsheet view and select the components tab.   On the first column named "Refdes" go down on the second connector that you want to copy the name to the net and just rename it to match the first.   Multisim will warn you when connect you 2 NET names together on the same page (but that's the idea)... so you can now have net "data0" connected to "data0' with a connector off specific page elsewhere in your design both external and within the page to other pages.  Also, you will have better control the alignment of text - and the label will move with the connector much better with straight wire labels...

    Also note that in general, we work to improve the wiring and the net labeling behavior.

  • How can I get the 8.3 file name short AND way?

    We use some old DOS programs and need to use the old format back (filename.xxx). When the files are in the long trees, it is very difficult to find the names of files under Windows.

    There was a response published in Google (http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview/id/522710.html) which works very well under XP, but when I use it in Windows 7, I get the long file name.

    Does anyone know how to do this?  The program can be changed?  Here is the program of this flajason-ga posted, but it must be updated for Windows 7 (I only know how to program in Foxpro).  Thank you, Alan

    Topic: Re: how to get the 8.3 file name short AND path?
    From: flajason-ga on May 27, 2005 10:45 PDT
     

    After my last comment, I read your details a little closer.
    The last script I posted was to list out a whole directory in 8.3 format.
    If you are looking for a friendly way of Clipboard to recover the 8.3
    for individual files, that will be more to your liking.

    Same thing as before. Copy the below into Notepad and save it with a .vbs extension.
    Except that this time, you can simply drag and drop a folder or file icon
    on the .vbs file and it displays the short path in an input box.
    where you can copy the value and use anything you want to.

    If you're industrious, you can also save the .vbs file in your
    Folder "send to" (C:\Documents and Settings\ [yourname] \SendTo) to have
    It is available in your context menu with a right click.

    Set fso = CreateObject ("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

    ' Is a file or a folder?
    If fso. FolderExists (WScript.Arguments (0)) then
    "It's a folder
    Set objFolder = fso. GetFolder (WScript.Arguments (0))
    Refund = InputBox ("this is your short path:", "SHORT PATH", objFolder.ShortPath)
    End If

    If fso. FileExists (WScript.Arguments (0)) then
    "It's a file
    Set objFile = fso. GetFile (WScript.Arguments (0))
    Refund = InputBox ("this is your short path:", "SHORT PATH", objFile.ShortPath)
    End If
