Re: Can't login after update

I have a G3 running MacOS X, a couple of days back it asked me to update a few packages like Java and some others so I let it go ahead with them and it asked for a reboot so I reboot. Then it comes up but none of my logins in the system work. Does anyone have any idea of what happened or how to resolve it. If possible I would love to go about it without reinstalling everything.

Have you tried doing a Safe Boot? Hold down the Shift key on your keyboard while restarting. If you see the words "Safe Boot" in the login window, you have succeeded.
