recently, when I open my Mac terminal, it runs as root default and requires a password to continue.
After I enter the password, it switches to my common account, it is so strange. I want to log in as my common account by default, not the root, any ideas about this?
Did you already tried to change your account settings at SystemSettings/Accounts/ Login options ?

I'm required at work to use a Mobile Account connected to Active Directory. I also have an Administrator account on my computer (which is a local account).
Whenever I need to use sudo commands from the terminal, logged in as Mobile Account, the password of the Admin account is never recognized.
All the other operations that need a password input (e.g. the authorization to install Applications) work, so I can't explain why inside the terminal it doesn't work.
I've solved it by putting my user in the list of sudoers.
Checkout this link on how to do it.
Son of my collegue accidently created new user account in windows 8.1 and set it as admin. He also set password which of course doesn't know now. Is there any chance how to reset this password from guest account? Any software from third part or live linux? Thank you for helping
I tried some commands in cmd, but everything finished of course on admin permissions
visit C:/home windows/system32.
replica cmd.exe and paste it on laptop.
Rename cmd.exe to sethc.exe.
Replica the brand new sethc.exe to gadget 32,while home windows asks for overwriting the report,then click on sure.
Now log off from your guest account and on the user pick out window,press shift key 5 times.
6)In preference to Sticky Key affirmation conversation,command activate with complete administrator privileges will open.
Now kind “ net user ADMINISTRATOR “come 2 learn” where “come 2 learn” can be any password you want and press input.
You’ll see “ The Command finished successfully” after which go out the command set off and login into administrator together with your new password.
Bravo !! Now you have got hacked admin thru guest account.
I tried everything using terminal still can't get anything I can't change it using user setting as it demands the password and admin name I used keychain but still didn't get it
Boot up your Mac and hold CMD + R
which will boot into Recovery Mode.
Go to Utilities and open Terminal. Type in the following:
resetpassword
Close out the Terminal window and behind it you will find the Reset Password utility. All you have to do now is select the user account you want to reset, enter a new password or leave it blank and click Save. Then just simply restart the computer from the Apple menu and login with your new password.
I have a solution where I had a user1. I have add this user in the Admin group to give him access to the server. Then I change the name in admin and set the password to admin1234. Then ehn I start the server and it ask for the pass, I enter the new one but it doesn't work. So I remove my user and create a new one, still the same... I remove all the user and have only the default Admin group with no user, but still impossible to run anything. I always get ask for the admin pass when I have no user in the directory.
I have try to do a custom required.js function, I have try with the basic settings... I tried everything but I can't make my project to run.
Anybody have an idea of what should I do to fix this problem?
Try to remove the admin user, kill the server process and then create a new admin user.
I had the same issue a long time ago and this worked for me.
Actually it works fine to login, and also when I execute something with sudo. But when I try to change preferences and window with login/password pops up, it says that password is incorrect.
So I actually cannot install anything.
I finally figured out the issue first you have to make another Admin account I did this by following this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7awY1KI2s8
DON'T USE THE SAME PASSWORD THAT YOU USED ON YOUR OTHER ACCOUNT I HAD PROBLEMS BECAUSE I DID THAT
If you are experiencing the same issues as me where the password didn't work
follow these steps to change the password
Restart the Mac
During when it's booting up go into recovery mode.
Once in recovery mode open up Terminal.
Enter this and then press enter: resetpassword
Reset password for the admin account that was made.
log into your new admin account and then make your other account an admin user.
Restart computer and then login to your account.
The problem is – input language is not eng, even showing it is. Try delete any other input languages – worked for me.
FWIW - I had a similar issue with DP3 following a restart (I could not login with any account). After shutting down and booting again, I was able to login again.
Had the same problem. Log in with iCloud solved it.
