What is this other in the login window, and how to remove it?

Take a look at this discussion , what it is for and get even more ideas here on how you can modify it according to your needs. The two discussions took place some time ago, but the essence remains the same.

    Hi nigeln,

    Thanks for checking out the Apple Support communities for help with your MacBook Pro. I understand that you are wanting to be able to navigate in the login window of your MacBook Pro for your trackpad doesn't work. There are some keyboard shortcuts that can be useful even if the trackpad is not responding to you. I've highlighted some of these shortcuts below.

    Control - command - power Force your Mac button to restart.

    Control - Option - command - (button / stop or eject media) exit all applications, then shut down your Mac. If any open documents have unsaved changes, you will be asked if you want to save.

    Start button / Stop button for 5 seconds to force your Mac to turn off.

    Shift-command-Q log out of your OS X user account. You will be asked to confirm.

    You can see a complete list of shortcuts here: Mac - Apple Support keyboard shortcuts

    If you encounter any problems with your trackpad, I suggest you also try resetting the SMC on your MacBook, if you have not already. This will not erase any personal data but can help in situations like this. You can find the steps to reset your SMC here: reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support

  • machine freezes, slow start, apps to open slowly, the login window is not responding

    I had a problem with my macbook pro for a while now where the machine becomes completely insensitive and I pressed the power button to restart. I already posted about this problem and although the answer was very helpful, I did not understand 100% how to solve the problem and since that time, the thread is not answered. Please follow the link to the thread below and I hope someone can help me more. now, he becomes desperate enough that it happens more and more frequently. Sorry, repost and old thread but I don't know what to do and I don't want to replace my laptop if I do not.

    Thanks in advance

  • What was the version Windows of chown and chmod?

    I just moved a few screenshots of the admin 'my images' in the folder (shared) of all users using the command line. However, they are always established are only readable by the administrator. I don't remember the files that are now (if I have a good guess).
    What would the equivalent windows of the Linux command
    CHMOD 777 *. *
    aka
    chmod a + rwx *. *

    Yes, I could go through each file one at a time, but I got an error trying to select all files in the directory, so I could assign this permission en mass. I want to assign full control to "everyone", "users" or "authenticated users" (don't care really, as they are for most screenshots that I downloaded for twinkle to post on public boards like that).

    I could have sworn there was something like that, but it could have been only for server 2008R2. I don't remember when I first heard of him. The files are on a rugged laptop running Windows XP Professional SP3.

    If it is only for the server or Vista/7/2008, could you post anyway so I can use it with my office in the future?

    The equivalent command in Windows XP is "Cacls.  The equivalent command that you describe could be accomplished by:

    Cacls *. * / t/e/g everyone: f

    where the "/ t" repeat in subdirectories.

  • machine freezes, the login window is not responding

    Hello

    recently, a few times my macbook pro freezes and becomes almost insensitive. before I explain more I have 230 GB of my 500 GB of free hard drive, so I is not a problem with space on the disc.

    in general, I'll have safari, vlc, Skype numbers and open the activity monitor. the reason why I keep open all the time activity monitor is because I had some performance issues with my machine.

    every so often will freeze the machine and memory used will draw upward of about 1.75 GB to 3.8 GB. Sorry I forgot to see if there is no change in the cache, use swap, memory app, wired memory or compressed. I'll update the ram, but I still think there must be a problem which is the cause.

    When this happens, I pressed the power button to turn off and restart.

    In addition, and I don't know if it's related or another problem, whenever I restart the machine, a window pops up saying "insecurity disabled startup."? Library? startupitems? virtualpcosservices"was not started because it doesn't have the appropriate settings. I have never experienced this with any of my other macs and starting this machine has always seemed slower then on other Macs I've used.

    Thank you

    These must be run as administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.

    Run the Console application in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Step 1

    For this step, the title of the Console window should be all Messages. If it isn't, select

    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages

    in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

    List of newspapers seen ▹ display

    in the menu at the top of the screen bar.

    In the upper right corner of the Console window, there is a search box to filter. Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes).

    Each message in the journal begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the BOOT_TIME message that corresponds to the last boot time when you had the problem. Now, clear the search box to display all messages. Select those recorded before starting, during the time that something unusual was happening. Copy to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command + V.

    For example, if the system is unresponsive or unable to stop for three minutes before you forced a reboot, post the timestamped messages within three minutes before the start time, not after. Please include the message BOOT_TIME at the end of the extract from newspaper - not at the beginning.

    If there is a long series of messages, please post only one example of each. Do not post of many repetitions of the same message.

    When you post a journal excerpt, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

    Please don't dump blindly thousands of lines in the journal in this discussion.

    Please do not post screenshots of log messages - text poster.

    Step 2

    In the Console window, select

    DIAGNOSIS AND diagnostic USE information reports ▹ System

    (not diagnose them and use Messages) in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

    List of newspapers seen ▹ display

    in the menu bar.

    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points downwards. You will see a list of reports. A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the process crashed and ends with ".crash". A report of panic has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends with ".panic." A report of stall stop has a name ending with ".shutdownstall". Select the most recent of each, if any. The content of the report is displayed at right. Allows you to copy and paste to validate all of the content, text, not a screenshot. It is possible that none of these reports exist.

    I know that the report is long, perhaps several hundred lines. Please report all this anyway.

    If you don't see any report, but you know, there was a crash or panic, you can have selected diagnostic and using the list of Log Messages. INFORMATION on the USE of DIAGNOSTIC AND choose instead.

    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you change the UUID ' anonymous, ' a long string of letters, numbers and dashes in the header of the report, if it is present (it cannot be). "

    Please do not post other types of diagnostic report - they are very long and rarely useful.

    When you post the journal excerpt or the accident report, you might see an error message on the web page: "you have included content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the forum software. Thanks for posting the text on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.

    If you have an account on Pastebin, please do not select private in exposure menu to paste on the page, because no one else that you will be able to see it.
