I have a policy that creates a local admin and filevault2 enables it. It works fine but the picture I try to setup for the account is not getting assigned. Instead I get the default picture of a 'silhouette' of a person.



9.51



this is what i have tried in the picture location text box. None of these have worked, no picture of Soccer.tif



"/Library/User Pictures/Sports/Soccer.tif"



/Library/User Pictures/Sports/Soccer.tif



/Library/User Pictures/Sports/Soccer.tif

Isn't it Soccer.png?


Damn you're right, thought I seen it as a .tif, thanks



going to use the following syntax /Library/User Pictures/Sports/Soccer.png


Well in Mavericks it's Soccer.tif
in Yosemite it's Soccer.png



I am using /Library/User Pictures/Sports/Soccer.png no quotes. Finally worked, got the account picture to display.


Try without quotes:
/Library/User Pictures/Sports/Soccer.png
or
/Library/User Pictures/Sports/Soccer.png
