  • How to secure the password for administrator on Windows 7

    Hello

    We put the administrator on our son's PC account in order to have control over what it installs on the computer and install the software of parental controls on the computer. He was able to remove the sort of administrator account and block us on the computer. Could someone tell us how he managed to do so and if it is possible to secure the administrator account to a certain way so that it is unable to do?

    Thank you for your help.

  • How to reset the password for BIOS on Satellite A15-S127

    What is the best way to reset the password for boot/BIOS/CMOS on a Satellite A15-S127? I saw notes on the creation of a parallel loop, but I can't find the technical notes on how to make one. Even if I can make one, it will work on this model?

    I don't remember seeing "Clear CMOS" riders on the map and I heard that remove the CMOS battery does not reset the password if you need access to the BIOS later.

    Can anyone help?

    Hello

    I'm not sure of the A15, but as it is the American version of the A10, the BIOS password reset method should be the same. You need a special adapter PCMCIA. And the bad news: only Toshiba service people have this adapter. He must therefore go to a service partner.

    11.1.1.3 Jdev

    How can I reset the password? Or y at - it a default password that I can try?

    I tried to delete the DefaultDomain to the system folder and tried to run the application. But it does not request a password also

    Am I missing something basic?

    The reset button of the pinhole on the rear panel of the unit resets user and network settings. It will not delete your data. Press on the reset button for 15 seconds and the device should restart. After the reboot, you will go through the initial setup process.

  • FYI: How to reset the password for the LC Server

    Question

    If you want to change the password for server you must do it manually in the database.

    Reason

    The administrator password is the single password that is stored in the EDCPrincipalLocalAccountEntity database table.

    Solution

    To select the correct record, run this query:

    SELECT uidstring, password, salt
    OF adobe.edcprincipallocalaccountentity A, adobe.edcprincipaluserentity B
    WHERE A.refuserprincipalid = b.id AND b.uidstring = 'administrator ';

    The values in the password field and salt together form the password of the administrator account. On an installation of the example where the administrator account password was "password" the password field was defined as:

    TXScDjEEQCzWccUMUdf8wijx / it =

    and the field of salt has been fixed:

    JNIBnmos3d0WE9W8oquFIQ is

    To reset your password to "password" run this update command to update the two fields in the EDCPrincipalLocalAccountEntity table with the values above and you should be able to connect.

    UPDATED adobe.edcprincipallocalaccountentity, adobe.edcprincipaluserentity
    SET password = "TXScDjEEQCzWccUMUdf8wijx / it = ', salt =' JNIBnmos3d0WE9W8oquFIQ =='"
    WHERE adobe.edcprincipallocalaccountentity.refuserprincipalid = adobe.edcprincipaluserentity.id
    AND adobe.edcprincipaluserentity.uidstring = 'administrator ';

    You may need to restart the application server for these changes to take effect.

    More information

    This solution has been verified on a database of MySQL with LiveCycle ES 8.0.  The schema of database for later versions of LiveCycle ARE (8.2.1, 9, 10 etc.), and of other types (Oracle, SQL Server) databases may be different and may require changes to the SQL statements above.

    In some databases, the table 'edcprincipallocalaccountentity' does not exist, but is represented by the table "edcprincipallocalaccount". The information in this TechNote is provided as-is and should be tested before applying it to a production database.  Is recommended to perform a full backup of the database before applying the changes.

    I could reset.

    but when the account is locked, then wait for a while. It unlocks automatically. above the solution is if you forgot the password. Then use the method above to reset the password to "password".

    Hello bsquirrel,

    Welcome to the HP Forums.

    I see you want to reset the password on your printer.

    From the main screen on the printer, use the arrow key to the right and select the Setup Menu.  Use the right arrow key again and navigate to and select the network menu.  Scroll down the page until you see the default network and select Yes to restore.

    Once that finished, scroll to the top network Menu and run the Wireless Setup Wizard.  You will be asked a new network password.

    I hope this is the information you're looking for.

    Thanks for your time.

  • BlackBerry classic help! How to reset the password for the device

    I tried to change my password for the device, and then I pressed cancel. I changed head to change my password.   My phone has allowed me to use my original password. The next morning, I typed my password and the phone kept saying incorrect password.  How I change my password for the device?

    When you get to 5 or 6 incorrect attempts the device prompts you for blackberry. This is a safety feature to avoid wiping the device accidentally, and also so that you can see if you enter characters, you think that you enter.

    See if the device is to invite you to enter blackberry. If so, do it and then you should power try again the password.

    And if you left the password change and that he has not really changed the password, then your password is always the same as before, no different. Be careful and make sure that you enter the characters that you intend to enter.

  • How to reset the password for the system administrator for Time Capsule?

    I need to do a system restore to 2008 MacBook my wife of my 2014 Time Capsule, and I'm stuck at the system administrator password prompt. It does not accept the password to base such as revealed by the Airport utility station > base station > show passwords on my MBP, which is able to save and enter Time Machine, even if the TC is configured to use individual accounts rather than a single disk password. I'm nervous about any base station reset option in case I spoil my backup. How can I me?

    Although TC is configured to use individual accounts rather than a single disk password

    You must use the right of the user and the password in this case. NOT the password from the drive.

    I'm nervous about any base station reset option in case I spoil my backup. How can I me?

    Reset complete... It will not damage the backups somehow... It simply returns to the default values.

    Let me recommend to you if you want to continue using the TC in this way... (useless IMHO). Please do an export of the configuration before factory reset you.

    With the help of user and passwords in the TC is near useless. It only affects the side of the router...

    If you need more security using encrypted backups... but the reality is... the security more you add less useful the backup is likely to be. As you have now discovered... When you need it... you need as clear and clear as possible.
