Hello

If you are using XP Home Edition, the built-in Administrator account probably doesn't have a defined password. You can start in safe mode, where this account will be selectable when connecting.

To start in safe mode, keep hitting F8 twice a second after turning on the PC until you get the start menu where safe mode is selectable by the up/down arrow keys, and then press ENTER.

If you are using XP Professional, try to connect using the built-in Administrator account. You don't need to do it in safe mode (although you can if you wish). If your normal login screen is a display of the user symbol and hit ctrl-alt-del twice to get to login to text entry. Type administrator as the user name and try a blank password.

Once logged in as administrator, you should be able to change the passwords for any account.

In addition, check the status of 'Caps Lock' and if you are using a laptop computer when there is a numeric keypad superimposed on the normal alphabetic keys, check if the numerical values are active (normally a depression Fn and F key).

  • Help with "Password reset Wizard"

    I have vista Home premium and cannot access my administrator account because of a change in software that has sometimes happened mid-2012. I now get a pop-up, called a "password reset Wizard" which requires passwords to backup on a disk. This obligation did not exist in the past and I need to know how to solve this problem. I can't update my computer without access to the administrator account.

    Some guy stupid Chinese changed Chinese language in my phone blackberry 9500... and my bad luck the battery is low, so the phone turns off. When I turned on the phone, it's ask password and keyboard shows only no alphabets and numbers. Now, how you can enter the password to unlock the phone.

    Your suggestions and help will be very appreciated.

    Ashish

    If you do not know the password, enter 10 times incorrectly will wipe the device of all personal information, data, preferences, messages, contacts, calendar, etc. You will be notified before deletion.

    You could try connected to the PC and the Desktop Manager. Doing so will require you to enter the password, and there you will have access to your full keyboard.

    Otherwise, there is no way around the password requirement.

  • Unable to sign in iTouch with password security

    why I can't SIGN IN on MY ITOUCH NOW? I USE TO BE ABLE TO GET ON THE NET TO THE HOME OR A PLACE OF FREE LIKE STARBUCKS WIFI. I TRIED TO CHECK MY LAPTOP TO SEE WHAT TO DO BECAUSE IT WORKED WELL AT THE BEGINNING

    Hello Sharon,

    Unfortunately, we are limited in what we can do to help with password lost or forgotten by Microsoft Policy, which applies to anyone who answered questions here. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/189126.  But there are a few options to try:

    Can you not sign in the itouch at all (because of the password), or just are not able to get online (and you are sure that it is a security password problem and not a problem of configuration or a broader problem with the Itouch)?

    You have another account where you know the password (assuming that they are not all the same) that you can use to connect and then probably to do the password changes to this account?  (I don't yet know if an Itouch allows multiple accounts - LOL!)

    I don't even know if this applies to an Itouch, but if so, make sure that you do not have the CAPS or NUM LOCK keys LOCK (or some similar keys may apply with an Itouch) enabled - this can change what you think, you type in something else (different case or a number or a letter) and the system see what you entered as bad (and make you believe that you do not remember of) the old password).

    Finally, if not blocked by the password, can you create a new connection by using the appropriate codes and configuration options, and access or security of passwords (if necessary or they can be created without knowing the old password of security, as it is a new connection) to verify that the problem is not with the old connection (perhaps it has become corrupted or changed somehow and you do not found change)?  If it's a computer, that's what I would try in a situation like this.

    This is what we can offer in situations involving lost or forgotten or problematic passwords - particularly with an Itouch where our knowledge of the device is limited at best.

    I suggest strongly that you try to contact technical support for the Itouch see if they can be most useful. Here are the details: http://www.apple.com/contact/.

    Good luck and best wishes!

  • EliteBook 8730w: need help with reset password BIOS HP Elitebook 8730w

    Dear community, I have a HP Elitebook 8730w and I forgot the BIOS password. I tried everything I could remember, I slept several days above to remind him, but I'm lost. I contacted HP support and they said that they would not help with a file of type smc.bin (which has been mentioned in many forums). No idea how to fix? I need to change the HARD disk but do not dare to do so that I can not configure the new HDD or SSD in BIOS.

  • Need help with Windows Live Mail password

    Microsoft support told me that the only way to get help with my last password is by e-mail or forums and I recorded many positions and got no response.  I gave them all of my personal info to my email account and no response. I called in and no response.  Should I give up on this account?  I got it for more than three years and many court and legal emails were sent there I need.  Please notify.

    I guess that you have a Live account Windows that you do not manage to connect to for various reasons.  Can clarify you what the case, and you can specify that you forgot your password or your user name?

    If you talk about this type of Forums (below) then they are very busy, but eventually you should get a response from Microsoft.  If the problem is that I'm guessing that this is so only Microsoft can fix the problem for you, posters not Microsoft, as we find in this Forum won't be able to do much for you other than to advice on a course of action to follow.

    If I remember the way Microsoft handle such problems with the "lockout", it's that they contact you by E-mail (an address that you can still access) and either reset your password or clear the problem after having proved to their satisfaction that you are the owner of the blocked account.  The process is a lot easier if you have (in the setup) provided them with another email address, or installed (and remember) secret an answer to the Question.

    Unfortunately, the whole process may fail and you may forever lose this account.  If that were the case, you should start now to try to get duplicates of important emails from the original sender.
