  • EliteBook 8540p: password bios Elitebook 8540p

    Hi - I have not found a solution in the forum, so I type in a new topic.

    I bought the laptop first owner a few months ago and realized this administration bios is locked. Unfortunately, this type of laptop is well protected against the default reset. Replacing the battery does not help. Replacement of the small on-board battery for some time didn't help either - still requires admin password.

    Any piece of advice if there is NO solution? Just need to change media... :-/

    Dear customer,

    Welcome to the Support Forum HP and we are happy to help you.

    This is to inform you with all professional like Probooks HP laptops or EliteBook stricter security that the consumer models infact they don't produce 'stop codes', the password cannot be derived from the serial number and the code is stored in a memory not volatile to remove the cell RTC resets not the password in this case.

    1. Please take a look at this link.

    I've been updated BIOS firmware for laptop users, but I am stuck because of the absence of BIOS admin password. This has not been defined by anyone, and if so, I already tried a few passwords by default we use in special cases like this. Can you please help me with BIOS password reset please? I don't want to open up the laptop to reset the BIOS with the PIN, battery or switch... and I'm really not sure if this is possible with this model. Whatever it is, guaranteed disappears if I do.

    Enterprise-class specifications are of a very different category than consumer laptops.

    Security is very strict.

    Remove the password admin or start will require replacement of the motherboard or BIOS CMOS chip with one that has been programmed with a new copy of a ROM family file there is place of BIOS.

    For the notebook to stay in coverage that must be performed by a service provider authorized HP.

  • iCloud password reset scam e-mail?

    Received an email from Apple, as never before, to an alternative e-mail, not my address to iCloud.  He said: "you recently requested a password reset or unlock your Apple ID", with links.  Being suspicious of both the message sent to my other account and grammar, I did follow links in the email.  Am I right in thinking it will be a scam?

    It seems certainly doubtful, so I encourage you to report it.

    You are right that the 8 GB is your max.

    Follow the steps below to create a reset disk of your own Windows 7 account password. Here's how:

    Note that this procedure requires a formatted blank floppy disk.

  • Says password reset page "is not an apple ID".

    We recently replaced a hard drive.  After you restore things, I tried to play a song on iTunes and received the message "this computer is not authorized...". "and it gave me a chance to enter the password with the Apple ID already filled.  No password worked, so I just clicked on 'Forgotten?' and was taken to the Apple page to reset the password.  The Apple ID was already entered, so I clicked on "continue".  At this point, however, the page pops up a message saying "< myemail@address > is not an Apple ID".

    I don't understand because this is the e-mail address with which the song was purchased.  What should I do now?

    iTunes 12.3.2.35

    Windows 7

    Hi iNoodles4118,

    Welcome to the communities of Apple Support! I'm sorry to hear you are having these problems with iTunes and your Apple ID. I'm a bit difficult to know if ID Apple which had already inquired on the authorization page when you tried to play the song corresponds to your current Apple ID or possibly a precedent or even an unknown ID. You can check to see what Apple ID, the song was purchased slot, as follows:

    Control iTunes for previous purchases

    If you have already purchased something from the iTunes Store, you can check which account was used to buy it.

    If the Apple ID has changed since then, and the name in the Info file will not work.

    1. Open iTunes.
    2. Click on one of your purchases. You can find your purchases under my music or playlists.
    3. Choose file > get info.
    4. Click the file tab.
    5. The "purchased by" will show your Apple ID in parenthesis that was used to purchase the item.

    If you find your Apple ID, but still don't have to remember your password, reset your password.

    If you have forgotten your Apple - Apple Support ID

    If it comes from your current Apple ID, you should be able to verify that your password is correct and working by going to the main page of Apple ID:

    Manage your Apple ID

    You can also find the steps described in these helpful articles and information:

    Allow your computer in iTunes - Apple Support

    If iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize your computer - Apple Support
