"Remember passwords" no longer works

Tools | Opts | S | Remember password is checked.
Tools | Opts | S | Saved passwords appear old info password (password that had bee changed for a long time).
Nothing in privacy is set to clear the passwords...

It is possible that there is a problem with key3db and signons.sqlite files that store the encrypted names and passwords in Firefox.

Rename signons3.txt and signons.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder.

You can add .old files (key3.db.old and signons.sqlite.old) names or move them to another folder to make it possible to cancel the action.

You must define a new master password after renaming or removing the signons3.txt and all the currently saved passwords are lost.

If that worked, then you can delete the renamed files that are no longer needed.

  • Cannot transfer applications because the old Apple ID password no longer works

    Hi, I changed my Apple ID and now I'm trying to transfer apps purchased on my Apple ID from previous backup of my new phone, the new phone guard prompting me to connect to my Apple ID previous to allow this. I thought it would be no sweat: fist right in my old Apple ID password right? Evil. It does not work. Nor does my new password Apple ID.

  • Access PC after startup, password no longer works. "The user name or password is incorrect" message appears.

    My friend has an e-machine (8 months) with Vista Home Basic. She started this morning and typed his password and go: 'the user name or password is incorrect'.  She could not clear the checkpoint.  A few times there was a pause as if he was going to go on the desktop, to finish with 'the user name or password is incorrect'. Regardless of how many times she hit, the results were the same. Everything was fine the night before.  What are his options?
    My brother thinks that his computer may have a virus.
    Thanks for the review.

  • Fingerprint instead of power on password no longer works

    Hello

    my current setup is T530i model 2392.

    I've recently updated the BIOS to version 2.52 12. February 2013 and of course other software, especially in the solid state drive firmware Version FWSS28 from 14. February 2013.

    In BIOS Predesktop authentication is enabled with power on password and HDD password.

    Now to my problem:

    before the update I have software I could start with just drag my finger on the fingerprint sensor, without providing any kinde of password for the disk hard or power on password. I received information about the success & a start windows 7 (64-bit).

    Now I need power password all the time, seems this fingerprint or BIOS now has a bug?

    I did several things like:

    deactivation of each request for password in BIOS reboot...

    disable the removal of the fingerprints on the laptop and reboot...

    unchecked, all necessary settings in security software of fingerprints as a sensor of fingerprint SSO, past power-to-Word, should replace the market supply / hard disk password... reboooting...

    -then turned on brand new I have disabled before... reboot...

    Nothing has worked so far, so there, there seems to be a bug in the predesktop authentication...

    Could you please advice or provide a fix?

    Rgds

    Oliver

    Hello

    here in short terms, how I fixed it:

    -Open fingerprint digital program & disabled everything that is of concern for authentication by fingerprint

    -Remove fingerprints with this software also

    -biometric device disabled with windows tools

    -removed TPM with tpm.msc

    -removed everything from the BIOS about the fingerprint, password to start, drive hard, etc.

    -rearm prints with bios too

    -load by default in the bios Setup (cause it was an update of the BIOS)

    -stop computer

    -start again put everything in the BIOS that is necessary and has been disabled before

    -did the same thing under windows (all new activated)

    -... computer... prayed rebootet guests with 'matching of fingerprints' ==> first YES

    -provided password to start once...

    -stop again...

    -not started with only fingerprints recruits... no password prompt everything more... second YES

  • Vista password no longer works.

    When tried this appears, the user profile service service failed logon. User profile cannot be loaded.

    This error can usually be fixed by following the steps below. All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

    1 log on to a different user account with administrative privileges. If you neglected to make an account additional administrative steps 2-3. Otherwise, continue to step 4. See also General information on setting up user accounts in Vista at the end of this post.

    2 in Mode safe boot. This, by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. That you will get to the menu on the right where you can use your arrow key to select Mode safe [Enter]. The built-in Administrator account is disabled by default in Vista. However, if no other administrative accounts exist on the system it can be activated. If this is the case, you will see an icon for the administrator on the homescreen mode without failure. Login to the administrator.

    3 If you don't see the icon for the administrator mode safe account, then the built-in Administrator account is always disabled so you will need to work more. If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / Active: Yes [Enter]

    [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

    If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode.  Or you can do a repair file Vista bootable DVD in this link:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need the third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (www.imgburn.com ) to burn the .iso image image file, not in the form of data.

    Now remove the rescue CD/DVD, you have done, reboot Windows and log on to the built-in Administrator account, you enabled.

    4. try a system restore to when things worked. If you can log in to your user account, you are finished. Otherwise, continue to step 5.

    5. the critical files are under % systemdrive%\users\user-account\ntuser. The ntuser.dat file is actually a registry hive. Run Regedit high and select HKEY_USERS and "load hive" in the menu. Now, go to:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

    There is a line for each profile. If a profile is bad, check:

    (a) that the name of the key does not stop in ".bak" (remove .bak If it)
    (b) that the RefCount value is 0 (change it if it is different)
    (c) that the State value is 0 (change if different)

    Make the necessary changes, close Regedit and try to connect as this user.

    6. If that doesn't solve your profile, it is corrupt. When you do that, you should make a new Standard user account and copy your data to it. Do not delete the old account until you have recovered data you need!

    Once everything works, go to the additional administrative account you will be made by the suggestions below and disable the administrator account integrated yet for security reasons:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
    When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

    Exit the command prompt.

    General recommendations for creating users in Vista

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it can be more work you want to do. Better not to get into a bad situation at first.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).
