After Lion upgrade only guest account showing

Awesome. it worked and even for a dumb windows guy. Thanks for the help. I will never try and delete users again.......

Just another troubleshooter worth throwing in there as this problem had me pulling my hair out and re-reading threads over and over again (and I'm an IT guy)-

- Remember if you have Filevault enabled and are upgrading to either Lion or Mountain Lion just after restoring a Time machine Backup that you have to enable the restored accounts as active users for FileVault. I had forgotten to go into FileVault and enable my restored accounts (and set passwords up for them) and it was thus hiding them for the user login screen. Went in, made the fix, now all is well. A little off the beaten path from the main issue on this thread, but still similar and relevant so I thought I'd throw in my 2 cents

Thanks, it worked for me a little lng process but much easier tahn being messing around with terminal commands, BTWi never got the work te ctrl .alt.cmb + enter solution

alfaowner - that worked perfectly....thank you!! I was going crazy 12am this morning trying to figure this out after a install of Lion

Hi Ryan!

Nice to be able to help out....my Lion-installation works perfectly now...so good infact that i haven´t upgraded the system any more after getting it to work.

Stay well :-)
