• iPod classic you want to restore to the factory cannot remember the password

  I have two iPod classic I want to recycle. I don't remember the password that is associated with one of them. When I connect to iTunes and click on restore option, it asks for a password that I don't remember.

  Any suggestions for me?

  Thanks in advance!

  A classic iPod has an iTunes password not perform a restore.  I think he asks your password for the Mac admin user account.  Enter the password that you enter normally when you allow changes on your Mac, like installing new software.

• BlackBerry Smartphones purchased antiques 9900 on ebay and the seller cannot remember the password

  Hi, I bought a 9900 on ebay as a spare part and repair, I set the screen and found it was password protected, and the salesman says he can't remember the password. How do I bypass the password so I can reset back to factory settings? I don't want anyone to think I stole this, if someone can explain to me how to upload a photo I can post a screenshot of my purchase on ebay.

  Very simple, enter the wrong password 10 times.

  You will be asked to type "blackberry" in the fifth and tenth incorrect entries and the device will be wiped of the personal data of all the precedents of the user, preferences, etc., and you'll end up with a cool feature.

• Cannot remember the password restriction or reset iPhone

  Hello

  I recently asked my son to take off / change the restrictions on his iPhone, since these restrictions are younger. When I tried to enter the password, he said it was wrong.  I tried the passwords I most often use / used and none of them work. Is there a way to recover the password? I googled this topic and found out that you would have completely reset the iPhone, but because of games there, my son does not discount to zero, we cannot do this. Are there other options?

  Thank you.

  Hi AnOGName,

  Good to hear your son is beyond the need for restrictions on his iPhone.  It looks like you have found the answer to your question about the code of Restrictions, however.

  On the restrictions (parental control) on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch - Apple Support

  If you lose or forget your password restriction, you must erase your device and then put it up as a new device to remove the restriction password. Restore the device by using a backup does not delete the access code.

  I would certainly exhausted all possible combinations of password first.

• BlackBerry software BlackBerry ID - old email address and cannot remember the password: phone backup requires BBID thus.

  I downloaded Blend and now I need a valid ID of BlackBerry.  I have a BlackBerry ID but the email address is an old work address that I use, because I quit this job.  Thus, I do not remember the email so I can't just change the attached email to the ID.

  I think I should do a swip security but before I do I want to save my phone so I don't lose any of my applications and other information.

  To make a back-up, I need to use the link and who also uses BlackBerry ID.

  Any suggestions on what to do?

  Thank you

  Hello

  First of all, ignore the mixture for now... get your device/BBID straightened first. Please see this post "sticky" for useful information about your situation BBID:

  • http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/BlackBerry-world/how-to-regain-access-to-your-BBID/TD-p/25467...

  I hope that this information will be useful to you. Given what you describe, it is very likely that you will have to give up your BBID, WIPE your device and start over again with a brand new BBID (and this time, beware of high security and not lose track of the related powers / email accounts).

  In what concerns the backup/restore association problem and it's the BBID to post a link, complete documentation of your configuration (e-mail accounts, configurations, etc.) will allow you to manually reconfigure later, and which would then be re - synchronize your accounts/data residing on servers somewhere. If you have only been store contacts/calendar/etc. on the device itself... Well, there is indeed a problem. I'm not sure that there is a way to overcome this, given the tie in the LINK to a backup file to a BBID. Maybe you can find a version older link that does not have this way of connection (and no, I do not know what version to recommend or where to find it).

  See you soon and good luck!

• my daughter has created another account and does'nt remember the password would close the account else completely off cannot figure out how to do it please help

  Please help me understand this

  You can change your password to something that you remember another administrative user account. If you had only an administrative user account and you have forgotten the password, all is not lost. You can then follow the general recommendations for implementing user accounts in Vista that I will give you at the end of this post.

  All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

  If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

  NET user administrator / Active: Yes [press Enter]
  NET user [insert here the name of your user account] [insert the new password of user as 1234 here] [press Enter]

  [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

  Remove the installation DVD and restart the computer. Now, you will be able to connect to your user account by using the password that you set; for example, 1234.

  If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable Vista file repair DVD in this link:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data.

  Once you have fixed things, log on to the additional administrative account you will be made by the suggestions below and disable the administrator account integrated yet for security reasons:

  Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
  When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

  NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

  Exit the command prompt.

  General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

  You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

  In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult.  It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in a bad situation at first.

  The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

  If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

  Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
  Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

  Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

• Cannot access the password for administrator on Win7, how can we access this account?

  There are two accounts on this computer. An administrative and standard user.

  I can't access the administrative account. I forgot the password for this account.
  I can access the standard user account, but I can't change the administrative password because his account not administrative and I do not know the password on the admin account.
  How can I either change the standard user to admin user without having need of the admin password or how can I access the administrator account?
  The admin account is my main account with everything I need.
  His family win7 premium is a desktop computer.
  I, also, don't have Internet. The only internet I have is on my mobile phone with limited data.
  This is why I can't download anything to help.
  Help or knowledge is much appreciated.
  Thank you

  I can't access the administrative account. I forgot the password for this account.

  There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:
  • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
  • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
  • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
  • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
  • Use the password indicator (works only if you have created a hint and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
  • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

"Password policy or account require the account has a password. I tried to create another admin account, but it does however not take away the password or delete the account else

  Someone has put a policy on your machine to enforce some rules for passwords. Best is to ask that person to change these rules for you. Alternatively, you can run gpedit.msc, then follow this path to edit yourself: Local computer policy / Computer Configuration / Windows settings / security settings / account policy / password policy.

  Note also that:
  -You cannot delete the built-in Administrator account.
  -Administrator with a blank password accounts is a big security risk.
