Looking for very knowledgable Terminal/ Unix/ Apple person to guide advanced beginner with Acct problem- one coach on a different forum took 3 days with little improvement.
I had multiple accts on Quicksilver/1.1 gb ram/ OS Tiger.11
I changed the long name of 1 acct. in Sys Pref, then some time later changed it back... almost (I later figured out it was probably to the short name of a different acct.)
Anyhow, after logging-out and back in, Programs started offering startup screens when I wanted to use them for a few days.
When I did a cold boot, Tiger openned with its start up screen and my main acct. (with all the preferences ) no longer shows up on loggin screen. Stranglely, even though there is no longer a Home: for it, I can R/W to it's files using Finder from other accts.
User directory:
corey- empty
corey00- adm only
design- for projects
dv- old acct. no Home: or login
Shared-
vernon- new acct. hopefully to recieve files from old acct "dv"
Login Screen
corey00
design01
vernon01
If dv account can't be restored, can I insert all the files or the Library, or at least the preference files from it into new vernon acct?
Help Appreciated.
