To be honest this appears to have been fixed at the moment. I have just gone into the applications/settings/synaptic and was just able to open this way now. I then tried again with the gparted. Same results. Before every time I would try to log into either one I was getting the login screen back to me. I had created a launcher for the two of them so that I would be able to login to the Synaptic and gParted and thus bypass going to do so the other way. Seems that the issue had been fixed.
