Cannot access the drive after you type the correct password for BitLocker. Access is denied.

Hi all!

I really have a problem with my disc drive BitLocker encrypted.

On my PC at the beginning (from 2009), with OS win7, I encrypted my external WD 500 GB MY BOOK hard drive.

Unfortunately, old PC died:(et il y a un problème.)

Now on my new computer with win7 OS or another, I can't access my WD 500 GB MY BOOK external hard drive?

my first try the solution: I try to unlock the drive with my correct password and everything seems OK, drive is unlocked, but when I try to enter the disk I have the popup alert message: location is not available. J:\ is not available. Access is denied.

After that, I try another option.

try my second solution: In Control Panel > system and security > BitLocker Drive Encriptación I chose my encrypted disk and try to decrypt the drive. After maybe 7 hours and 99 percent, I got a pop-up message with the error. I don't remember now exactly how was the message.

Now, when I log on windows, on another device (laptop) when I attach my WD 500 GB MY BOOKoutside, drive in my computer , I have the following status: my external WD MY BOOK 500 GBhard drive is unlocked, visible and recognized as a drive J:\, but I can't access it.

When I try to enter again the drive, I have the popup alert message: location is not available. J:\ is not available. Access is denied.

Also, I have the correct password and BitLocker recovery key stored correctly the USB onmy.

Help, please

Best.

c. click the 'Security' tab and see if your current user is displayed in the ' group or user names " list. If not, please click on the Add button, type the name of your current user account in the "enter the names of the objects to select " box, then click 'OK' to add this group.

d. Select the user from the list, then check the box 'Allow' next of ' Full Control '.

  • "Cannot connect to the network." When you enter the correct password for wireless network

    Hello

    I have the HP Photosmart C7200 all-in-One series.

    This seems relatively insignificant compared to some of the problems posted here, but nevertheless it is a problem.  I have a Verizon FiOS (Actiontec) router.  I am trying to connect to it wireless; the network key is using WPA authentication.  I followed all the instructions in the quick start guide.

    My printer detects my network and application authentication key.  I enter the correct key, the printer is trying to establish a connection, but after about 15 to 25 seconds, I get the error message, "cannot connect to the network.  I know that my key is correct; I connect to my router very well through several laptops, PDA, etc.  I have reset the settings network default manufacturer and tried without success.

    I don't know what kind of trouble shooting I'm supposed to do here.  The printer detects the router (albeit low signal strength) whenever I try to connect, I enter the password each time and I get the error each time.

    Your help is greatly appreciated.

    Edit: I printed the test report wireless network, here are the results:

    Radio on   PASS

    The radio work   PASS

    Ethernet cable not plugged in   PASS

    Network name (SSID found)   PASS

    Security   PASS

    The printer settings compatible with the configuration of the wireless router   PASS

    No filtering   IN CASE OF FAILURE

    Connected   Not work

    The signal strength   Very low

    Other networks detected matching you the network name (SSID)   NO.

    I know this sounds strange, but try changing channel by channel 11 of the wireless router.

  • HP 8600 printer range does not have the correct password for the wireless access

    OK, it's frustrating. New HP 8600 printer will not check the password to my wireless internet. I am sure that the passrod as I type this IS 100% correct. I am trying to connect to a router from Apple. I used this password for a period of fuse, and have several Mac laptop and a new LG TV connected wirelessly. Any ideas before taking the machine back?

    Set the printer back to the default settings and try again.  In no joy, hard reset the router, reconfigure your settings and try again.

  • After you type the master password in session can force type master password once again without ending the current session and start new session?

    Sometimes after using the password to access an account during a given session of firefox, I want to "repeal" this ability of automatic access (i.e. require type the password again once) without having to put an end to the current session and restart firefox.

    It's nice to only have to type the password once per session, there are times when after launching an action that I would let the browser unattended for a short period but to prevent others to access sensitive information on other sites if they can't my master password. Note that this is not the same thing as "locking the browser. Currently, the only way I know to force it is to kill the session and restart the browser but it's not very satisfying if I really want to stay connected (allowed) to a particular site. I hope that adding a button in the Security tab "requires the master password for the current session" would be a simple solution to implement? Thank you for your attention.

    You can connect from the software security device (e.g. click Cancel in the dialog box display the passwords) to force them to return to the MP once more.

    I just bought 14 elements Photoshop and Photoshop first 14 for Mac (I have an iMac OSX) and downloaded and received periodic publications related to them. But try to install it after you type the serial number, I get the message that Adobe is unable to validate the serial number.

However, after you type in the first series of numbers for the first, there is no place to type in the second set. How can I check if the first has been correctly activated?

  • Code 80070241 in Windows update and "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file" when you try to run any program.

    Windows Update has appeared today when we started one of our machines, informing us that there are some installed updates. After reviewing the updates, we clicked on the "Install now" button, and immediately, it failed with the above error code.

    I tried to run regedit a reason unrelated, and it came with a dialog box error with "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file. A recent hardware or software change might be installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged or maybe it's a malicious software from an unknown source. »

    After researching here and elsewhere on google and did not find anything suitable, put us in the Win7 disk, recovery tools and tried to go back to a previous system restore point (3 days).

    The restoration went well, restarted, but the problem persists.

    Then, we just tried to install anti-malware software, but when trying to run the installer, we get a different error message indicating 'ShellExecuteEx failed; Code 577 "and then the same message on the verification of the digital signature.

    The computer is running fine all yesterday and has worked very well since just after the new year when he has been upgraded to Windows 7. No material changes have been made, and no software changes were made by users in the course of last week.

    The computer is an AMD Athlon II X 4 with 4 GB of RAM on a motherboard Asus M4A78-EM, linking a 64 GB SSD, with a 250 GB drive SATA data/programs. GPU is a Nvidia 260, and it has a CD and DVD player as well. It is connected to our router using the gigabit ethernet interface motherboards.

    It was under windows 32 - bit XP SP3 up just after the new year. When we put in place the new SSD to replace a hard drive older than we have did a new install of XP (slipstreamed with SP3) and then used the upgrade 32-bit W7 Home premium DVD version to upgrade the system. Since then, the system runs flawlessley.

    On the machine is MS office XP, Firefox 3.6.3, AVG 8.5 and a few games such as the Turbine DDO.

    The main user account used to try to solve these problems and to run Windows Update and try installing programs is a member of the Administrators group.

    Firefox works fine, serve, and he plays the games installed very well also. AVG reports to date, with no problems and has detected no threat.

    However, try to view the registry with regedit, or start Viewer event or compmgmt.msc that all do appear the message "cannot verify the digital signature.

    ***************************************************

    Can anyone offer an opinion on what might be wrong with this facility please, and how we could do to solve?

    Cannot run chkdsk/scandisk as he bought the message "cannot verify the digital signature" etc etc.

    This morning, the machine began to behave differently - stop playing back badly, refused to start Device Manager, open Control Panel correctly etc.

    So, I reset the BIOS to boot from the CD-ROM, slapped XP SP3 in reinstalled, then upgraded to Win 7 again.

    Still have no idea what caused the problem, but it seems to be gone now - reinstalled the same applications, AV / programs anti-malware, games, etc and everything seems to go fine now.

    Yesterday, I changed my password to a Yahoo Mail account but Safari on iMac OSX 10.7.5, (6.1.6) won't let me save the new password.  Now, I have to type my username and then auto Safari fills the old password.  I can access my emails by typing the correct password, but I can't find a way to update Safari to remember the new password or user name.  I had a look on some forums and followed the advice given there, but none of them have worked:-check that the username box and password is checked; Delete the entry in the preferences of Safari; Check the drive in disk utility and click on repair disk permissions. Click on "Repair" in S.o.s. keychain and add the password etc in the keychain.  Remove all data from the Web site and clear the history.  Switch off and unplug before returning.  Can anyone help, please.

  • The laptop recovery Toshiba Satellite L505-S5997 problem error: Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L505-S5997 computer laptop and my hardrive recently crushed, impossible to restart.  I installed a SEAGATE 500 GB/sata/GO 16 MB of Cache, 7200 RPM hard drive. I ordered recovery for the computer disks and many of the drivers will not update or install without error that tells me that "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might be installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or maybe it's a malicious software from an unknown source.

    Are you sure that the original problem was caused by a failure of the HD, did you test that the hd with the utility bootable disk from audit?

    As if you reinstalled to a new HD using that the required all defined recovery Tosh disk drivers would have been installed in this process.

    Assuming that Tosh then rebooted successfully after recovery, windows update would have run some important updates automatically. If that failed then it would seem that something is happening with your system.

    Hello

    USB devices remove all you can - restart the computer - is still there, the error? If it isn't
    It is related to one of the add-in devices that you removed. If she is still there, then, the question is
    either a device internal who can not remove or physically with the USB bus itself.
    If it was not there, add devices at a time until it is displayed - keep in mind that it is
    possible that there are two (or more) devices in conflict over the issue. Once you
    identified the check of the aircraft with the help of the manufacturer.

    1. to find the control panel - device - device - right-click on it - uninstall - Manager then
    Restart the computer to see if it clears.

    2. same place - double click on the device - driver tab - driver update - to see if that helps.

    3. check with the support of system manufacturer (manufacturer of motherboard for customized systems), their
    online documentation and drivers, diagnostics and ask questions in their forums on all known
    questions. Update the Bios and chipset or other USB drivers.
