  • Cannot access the MSN account on cruise but was at home

    Original title: Edit profile

    I was on a cruise and tried to read my e-mail using the system on board the ship. I have been unable to access my e-mail address because I was asked to provide security. One of them has been my year of birth, in 1937, but the system says that it wasn't the right answer. He asked me my favorite writer, or something like that, and I don't remember giving this MSN when I opened my account.
    I also tried on one of the ports of call, and it was the same thing.  Both cases, the system told me I've tried too many times.
    When I got home last night, I was able to access my mail with no problems. I found an e-mail from MSN account auditing Services (which I think is wrong) telling me that my account will be suspended if do not react quickly.
    How can I view my profile so I can see what security issues I gave MSN probably 10 years ago.
    Thank you.

  • Cannot access the user account

    I recently sent my computer in my college of departmental it to update some software. They could not access my account due to a password. They bi - passed this by making two accounts 'Test' and 'comments'. If I'm going to one of these accounts I can go to c:\Users[user-name]\Music\iTunes\iTunes and I can see my old account named "owner". However when I connect 'owner' is not an option for a click for a login account. All my old files are always under the account of 'owner '. How can I get back "owner" as I use an account to which?

  • I have Windows 7 and cannot access the administrator account

    I am unable to enter my administrator account because I accidentally put the wrong password in place.  I don't remember to save my life.  Unfortunately, I do not have a disk or anything else as a backup so I don't know what my other options would be.

    I really, really need to access my photos and files from the admin account.  Is it possible that I can recover?  Help, please!

    We will put your computing experience on a more solid basis as follows:

    • A Windows repair CD is absolutely essential if you decide to do maintenance on your own PC. It takes only three minutes to burn a via the control panel / backup and restore. Given that you have never created one before, you now have these options:
      -Burn it on another computer.
      -Borrow one from a friend.
      -Buy one here: http://systemdiscs.com/
    • Start dieting solid backup on an external device. With your valuable photos right on your PC takes a lot of unnecessary risks.
    • Create, test, and document an alternative admin account, as you have a spare House key. It takes less than a minute.

    When you have your CD to repair Windows, then you can solve your current problem as follows:

    1. Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
    2. Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
    3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
    4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
    5. Select 'Repair' when prompted.
    6. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
    7. Configure Windows to a point before you changed the password.

    Win7 when configured on the peer-to-peer network has three types of configurations of sharing.

    Group residential network = only works between Win 7 computers. This type of configuration, it is very easy to entry level users to start sharing network.

    Working network = fundamentally similar to previous methods of sharing that allow you to control what, how and to whom the records would be shared with.

    Public share
    = network Public (as Internet Café) in order to reduce security risks.

    For the best newspaper of the results of each computer screen system and together all computers on a network of the same name, while each computer has its own unique name.

  • cannot access the files of another user with the admin account

    I'm on a computer with Windows Vista 64-bit home problems.
    I normally have the computer configured to connect automatically to a non privileged user and rarely use the admin account.
    Recently, I downloaded an update (Finally, more like a relocation to the latest version) and realized that I need the admin account to install properly for all users that UAC would make things a royal PITA with a zillion prompts.

    I quickly disconnected and logged in as admin. Then, I realized that the installation file has been stored in the "downloads" folder in my regular account.
    Worse still, I could not access this folder, or I couldn't tab of future security. All I could do was to 'change the property' to my admin account, but I really didn't block me on these issues. Even from Explorer using "run as administrator" gave me problems, although the DIR command in cmd.com would be the list of people.

    I used the "change user" function to log my account regular and checked the Security tab and saw that the "Administrators" Group had already read and checked 'total control '. Why can't access the admin account? As an admin with XP, I had free access to everything I wanted to leave that I wanted.

    What happens if I was a parent and wanted to check to make sure that my child was not software piracy or download illegal music that would get stuck with the fines because I'm his guardian? How would I go about checking his records?

    What happens if I was an employer at a small office using working groups and wanted to ensure that the employee was not downloading pornography?

    How can I use the powers of the administrator to access other files (regular) user?
    Why do I still need to ask this question? It was automatic under NT, 2000, XP and the various servers at least as high as 2003.

    I found the problem, it was ANOTHER problem with Norton Security Suite for Comcast.
    I uninstalled and did not only to release 100 GIGABYTES of space, my boot time has been cut to a quarter of the former time, and this problem has disappeared.

    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)

    Hi I encounter an error message "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You don't have appropriate permissions to access. »

    The error message every time I click on administrative tools of the window (including the Control Panel, windows update, the Windows Explorer, etc.) but without impact on other programs I have.

    I rebooted in safe mode and discover that everything works fine (no error message will appear when you click on window management tools).

    I proceed to do a clean boot-> first disable all services of third parties (message yet to come), and then clear the components of the service windows (message yet to come)

    I tried to type "explorer.exe" in the start menu-> search field then click right highlight to run with administrative rights, then received another message of error "Server execution failed".

    I am the administrator account on this PC - and have full access.

    The error seems to have appeared on 11 August after Windows Update the following:

    Update of security for Microsoft Windows (KB2536276, 2556532 2559049, 2560656, 2563894, 2567680), and

    There is no installation of any software or updates outside the windows update.

    I also tried to restore the windows before August 10, 2011, but that did nothing.

    As the error prevents me to access any object Admin window - I'm unable to retrieve the product ID and write to Microsoft Tech and ask for help.

    I hope some of you can offer the suggestion of possible solutions (I really want to re - install window 7 and other software, I'm sure).

    Thank you.

    My solution works in about 2 minutes, it's a very weird error and only happened to 3 jobs in the last 3 years, this solution does not need to create another account if local administrator is active and allows access to the corrupt user documents ect.

    If the local administrator is not activated refer to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555910 and after completing these newspapers of steps on the local administrator account.
