Can not add a user password

[ateazzie]

Hi

thnx for this great piece of software which we will use for our migration When I started the program I was not able to add my user password, no characters appeared in the field

Pls advice

How is the app being lauched? If you launch it from Terminal (say the app is in /Users/Shared):

sudo /Users/Shared/Mobile\ to\ Local.app/Contents/MacOS/Mobile\ to\ Local ?

Does it behave any differently?

small addition when I want to add the users password, it appears in the terminal, not in the app

[BIG-RAT]

Shows up in Terminal as plain text? Wonder if launching it as follows makes any difference and are you able to change the username?

currentUser=$( scutil <<< "show State:/Users/ConsoleUser" | awk '/Name :/ && ! /loginwindow/ { print $3 }' );sudo launchctl asuser "$currentUser" /Users/"$currentUser"/Downloads/Mobile\ to\ Local.app/Contents/MacOS/Mobile\ to\ Local -allowNewUsername true

Hi this worked. Brilliant! do I have to add this in my deployment?

We will migrate over 1100 Macs, where this is the major part

thnx

[BIG-RAT]

?Sure. Depending on how you want things to run add the script as a post install script as part of the package.

do you have any idea why the application will not run with out adding allowNewUsername true?

[BIG-RAT]

I do not. Will it run if you run with allowNewUsername false?
