I changed my administrator password and can not remember it at all even with the HELP indicator!
I changed my password on my computer emachines that's installed with windows Vista home edition and of course I didn't create a backup disc for windows vista, also, I find not the notebook where I wrote the password, now I am prompted for my user account for everything and I try to do the admin password which I do not remember. The devil what do I do? / I also did not create a password reset disk in order to restore through the wizard, I can't yet do a system restore without authorization of the admin and the password. Im stuck. I don't want to restart my sytem, since I'll lose all my documents and photos, so how can I access to my admin account when I forgot the admin password, I changed? Please help me! It is a new computer for me? is there any command I can type prompt for the user account? or any solution?

URGENT! -I'm locked in one of my user accounts - the system won't let me not reset the password
You said that you had to reset the password, but forget what it is.
Do you then remember the previous password?
1. If you remember the previous password until you did reset.
2. If you have the DVD drive or Vista repair.
3. If there is a restore point which a logon succeeded.
This works in cases where you changed your password to something new and then has forgotten or deleted a user account by accident. So that this works, there must be a restore point from the system during which logging has managed for the account of the problem. In addition, this isn't a problem if you are in a domain environment because the domain administrator can always reset your password.If you meet the above conditions, then use this tutorial:
http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/how-to-regain-access-to-your-administrator-account-in-Windows-Vista-using-system-restore/Otherwise, we are not allowed to help users to bypass the password protection, regardless of what are "reasons".

I use a MacBookAir. I send a photo from Lightroom 5 to 12 items and appears in the photo, BUT when I press "Layers" (bar at the top on the screen), ALL THE CHOICES (for example, "duplicate layer") are 'whited out' and none of them pressing results in NO ACTION. In other words, I'm IMPOSSIBLE the ELEMENTS of USE IN LAYERS 12. All have worked (and STILL works) fine to 10 items. Something fundamentally wrong, but I don't know what! ANY IDEAS? Thank you.

Hello
There are two possibilities
(1) you are using a 16-bit/channel image - go to Image-> Mode-> 8 bits/channel
(2) you are not in Expert mode - click Expert top
Please let us know if it works.

I have a disc in my Mac and can not understand about where to go read the content?
I have a disc in my desktop iMac computer and can't figure out how to break through the buttons right or my computer to read the content of the program?
Double-click the icon of the disk on the desktop. I hope that you have installed an application that can read the content for you.
If you don't see the icon of the disk on the desktop, open the Finder, then go to the Finder menu bar and click Finder > Preferences, and then select the general tab and then make sure: CD, DVD and iPods is selected.

Saved programs & Docs to a folder on another drive. Made the file READ ONLY so she would not get changed. Windows RELOADED. Copied programs (no longer available and/or damaged discs) and Docs for the new Windows. Now most of the Windows files, program files, all Doc files are READ only! Cannot change what anyone on Windows, load new programs or updates, and it doesn't allow me to cancel the attributes read-only in a file or a folder including the backup folder in the other player! I copied backup files I want to save one by one in another folder in another player, so I can reformat and start over, but this issue has also become READ ONLY. Can someone help me with this thing read-only?
I'm sorry to say this, but you cannot back up Windows in this way. As you have unfortunately discovered, simply copying the program files does not work. You would have needed the system image using a program like Acronis True Image . There is nothing you can do about the programs; they should all be reinstalled from the media (CD or executable files downloaded from the Internet). With respect to documents, you can take possession of them. The read-only attribute is not applicable to folders in Windows XP.
