Acer A1 - 840 Tablet suddenly requires the password - what to do?

We had the Tablet > 1 year and did not have a screen password - everything we did was slide the screen to turn it on.

Now, suddenly - without knowingly do us anything - pad appeared on the screen and a PIN code is requested. I tried several combinations of numbers without result. I can only enter 5 possible pins until I get a message telling me that I have to wait 30 seconds for retry.

It's weird. The tablet was hacked? This could happen 'accidentally '? Any ideas on what we can do?

Hi fbo.

I don't know how to get a password there unless someone affecting him, but you should be able to recovery the tablet. Unfortunately, this would cause data on the tablet to get lost.

  • After installation, bookmarks import/restore will require the password from the previous version

    HI @z281.

    Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support. It is strange that your printer requires the use of a password.

    So that I can better help you, I know what you are trying to do and when you are prompted for the password.

    In addition, you have iOS as your operating system. What version?

  • All-in-one HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m requires the password wireless

    All-in-one HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m we recently had to ge to a new Westell router for the wireless. the printer connects when we put the password but anytime the commection to the router go out it will not reconnect until the password is released. He seems to forget the password.  System indicates that the software is up to date for the printer.

    Hi ckmcgraw,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I see that you have recently changed your wireless router and now when he loses the connection, you must enter the password on your HP Photosmart C309g to reconnect to the wireless network. The reason why this could happen, it's every time, it loses the connection to the router assigns a new IP address, which would require a password for the network.

    You can set a static IP address for the printer, which should solve your password entry wireless every time, he loses the connection. See the steps below:

    • Print a network from the front of the printer Configuration Page. Note the IP address of the printer.
    • Type this IP address into a browser to reveal the internal settings of the printer.
    • Choose the network tab, then wireless along the left side, then on the IPv4 tab.
    • On this screen, you want to set a manual IP address. You must assign an IP address outside the range that the router sets automatically (called the DHCP range). If you do not know the range, change the last set of numbers (those after the last '.') 250
    • Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it's different, if so, use it)
    • Enter the IP Address of your router (on the Page of the Network Config) for the gateway.
    • Enter for the first DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for second DNS. It's Google DNS. You can choose a different external DNS if you wish.
    • Click 'apply '.

    Please let me know the result, I hope this helps!

    Thank you

  • I chose a password for my user account & I forgot the password what can I do?

    Hey

    recently I changed my password user account for my office but I forgot, so I'm not able to reach my information. I didn't keep it in my mind, because I thought that it is very simple! How can I solve this problem?
    Here you go:
    1. keep tapping F8 during the first phase of startup.
    2. select Repair from the menu.
    3. Select an administrator account, and then enter its password.
    4. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
    5. set Windows to a point before you changed the password.
    6 plan ahead a little and create, test and document an alternative admin account, same as you have a spare emergency House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.
    As an alternative, you can use your repair Windows CD to start the machine in Repair Mode and launch the system restore process.
  • Impossible to delete file from LR, requires the password from the Mac OS finder

    I have an old power Mac OSX 10.5.8 running. I store all my images under the same folder on the same hard drive. For some reason any and this has never happened before, always worked normally prior to that, I don't know why the images cannot be deleted and moved to the trash in LR. At the level of the finder, these files every need I type my password (Finder requires that you type your password). This has never happened before, I tried a stop down and re - start cold, but the behavior persists. Images are not locked and everything seems normal, but not normal behavior. I realize this isn't a problem with Lightroom, but I need to delete from Lightroom, because is where I can see the images better while choosing those that can be deleted. Has anyone seen this behavior before Mac? No matter what patch you know?

    Thank you

    Ken

    His is as the files do not have the correct permissions. Because they are on an external drive, you could select the drive icon, bring up the info (Cmd + i) window and check the box "ignore ownership on this volume".

    What to do with all my internal/external additional disks by default. It is usually no problem, except if you need to prevent other users to access the files.
