Cannot connect 'username or password OK'

I use a windows XP Pro and tries to connect to a Windows 2003 server via remote desktop. I did this for a while now without any errors. Today when I tried to log in, I received a message indicating that I have the name of incorrect user or password and I know what I entered is correct. I went to another machine in the office and connected properly. any ideas on what has happened to my computer and how do I solve the problem?

    Hello

    You can try the following.

    Shut down the laptop.  Tap away at f8 that you start the laptop to enter the Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select Safe mode and press ENTER.  If windows will load in this mode, on the Start Menu, click principally made programs, click Accessories, click System Tools and run the system restore.  Choose a restore point at least 24 hours prior to the issue of logon and then proceed to the restoration.  When you are finished, Windows will restart as normal in order to check if you can now connect correctly.

    Another option if the above does not help is as follows.

    Shut down the laptop.  Tap away at f8 that you start the laptop to enter the Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select "Start using last good known Configuration" and press ENTER.

    Hello

    I just got a laptop with windows 7 on it and I want to connect to my other PC for it, they are on the same network through a router. the PC can see and access the laptop without asking for a user name and password but the laptop cannot access the PC because it asks me a username and password that I don't know.

    Maybe this can help.

    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.

    Make sure that the software firewall on each computer allows free local traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall on, Vista/XP Firewall Native should be disabled, and the active firewall has adjusted to your network numbers IP on what is sometimes called the Zone of confidence (see part 3 firewall instructions

    General example, http://www.ezlan.net/faq.html#trusted
    Please note that some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

    ------------------------------

    If your network consists only of Win 7 and you want a simple network, use it.

  • Cannot connect on demand (PC - Win7) - good username and password; work on the web page

    I have a big problem. I can't log on Skype on my PC (Win 7) application. The password is correct and therefore the username. I tried to connect via accounts my microsoft, Skype and facebook, but it does not work. The strange thing is that it works on the internet page. I tried to change password several times, but it's not resovle the question.

    When you connect with the Skype account I get the message "Cannot connect" (in Swedish).

    When you connect with Facebook and Microsoft account I get the message "sorry, we don't know your loggin information - please controll your Skype name and password.

    The Skype app is updated using the "Search for updates" function in the "Help" menu to the bottom of the list.

    All Skype versions prior to 6.14 are now being disconnected and this means that you can longer use the version 6.11. You must update your Skype.

  • vCenter + 3 guest - root - cannot complete the connection due to an incorrect username or password

    Hi guys,.

    It is the latest attempt to address this issue the nice way.

    We have 3 guest running VMware essentials 5.5 with Veeam B & R (recently updated v9)

    I use a unit of vCenter hosted in one of the ESXI servers. Has joined the field - but no authentication SSO or AD has never been setup for it.

    Since yesterday, I am unable to connect to no machines with my password local root - or ESXI and vCenter. I almost use the same password for the hosts and vCenter (except the vCenter last character that is special) passwords have not been changed for 400 days. (I can remember in the past I have problem with my account lockout and I had to do something in vCenter turn it off - so I guess that this has been done)

    I am guard on getting "cannot complete the connection due to an incorrect username or password" when I try to connect via vSphere client, web browser, SSH or the physical server.

    Funny but my server of Veeam speaks to vCenter as nothing happened. Veeam management shows 400 days since the last change of password for root. Also, I am able to rescan vCenter successfully. If I ask for identifying information another user from the credentials manager in Veeam he dismisses them. So somehow Veeam is still talking to vCenter...

    It's just incredibly odd that two separate passwords for ESXI and vCenter are no longer works...

    Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

    Apparently, was my old brain!

    Just enter the password once again with a slight difference and it worked. @

    Username and password are correct

    Just a guess. Are you a password with special characters without selecting the required keyboard layout (i.e. leaving us / English)?

    You are able to connect on the DCUI (console)?

  • Cannot connect to Mozilla Support. It does not accept my user name or password. Reset password email says that my account is already activated.

    Tried to access the Forums of Support of Mozilla for Firefox Desktop Support, I've used several times. He cannot accept that my user name and password, claiming that they were incorrect. I tried the password reset function, which opened a window saying that accounts created before December 2010 may have connection problems. Reset your password below. It tells me to enter my e-mail address so that it can send me the instructions for setting up a new password. I get my e-mail address. It is said that we have sent an email to any account using this address. Please follow the link in the email to reset your password. I go to my email. Nothing is there. I wait, but still nothing.

    I return to the login page and click the link - I do not have a confirmation email - connection issues. A new window opens telling me to activate my account, I have to first of all confirm my email address. I enter my email address. I get an e-mail from Mozilla immediately, telling me that my account is already activated, and it gives me a link to connect. I click on this link. I get my login and my password again. Same error message denying me access and tells me to enter a correct username and password. I try twice with no success. Same mistakes repeated.

    So I try to create a NEW account using a different user name my email address. It doesn't let me do. It is said that the email address is already taken, and it does not allow me to proceed. In the end, I had to set up a new account with an email address that I never use, just so that I could access the functions of the help. I'm exasperated. I don't want to post my Questions that I do not use and having to open another application to access even the e-mail address. I want to be able to receive a message from Mozilla in my daily e-mail normal, if someone has replied to my message. But as Mozilla doesn't let me use my e-mail address for the new account, I put in place, I can't do that.

    It's very frustrating. Mozilla does allow me access to my original user account that has already been put in place with my preferred email address. And Mozilla will not let me create a new user account with my preferred email address. Now I'm stuck with a new user account which is linked to an email address that I never use and is not easily accessible to me. As a last resort, I access my new user account in the hope that it will allow me to change the email address associated with the account, but of course, this is not an option.

    Can someone please help me access my original account with my login and my original password? If a password reset is necessary, then I should not receive an email response telling me that my account is already activated (see below). If it is checked, then why can't connect? What is going on? Please help me. Thank you.

    It seems that your account has already been activated.

    I'm your pain ptapp!

    Through my research for an answer that solves this problem, I have found that not even Apple knows how to solve this problem of password to iCloud.

    All 4 of my devices constantly ask my password because of some problems with xyz account.

    Then I enter the password only to be told that iCloud cannot check my password.

    Then after several repetitions of this I get locked and have to go to the site apple id to change my password.

    I didn't spend $6 000 on these beautiful devices so I could spend countless hours dealing with support (with no positive result) and find themselves just beyond myself in frustration. I have a Mac Pro, 2 iPads, 2 iPhones and an iPod touch. All are behaving this way, no matter what it is I'm doing at the time.

    Apple needs to fix this problem, if they have any idea how to.
