Hi Experts,
I am quite new to ISE, I have access to ISE cli using a user account with the Admin role.
I tried to put the username admin with our standard password, but I can not connect using, username admin and the password of the cli.
In my view, it is necessary to boot from iso to set the admin password. The fact even to reset the user name "admin", even though I can access the CLI.
Receive your answer on that.
Thank you

Hi riyasrasheed,
I tested on my version 1.3 ISE and it worked fine. My understanding of the matter is, you were not able to change the default Admin user password by logging CLI with another user with admin role.
I tested on my version 1.3 ISE and it worked well for me. With the ISO image, you can change the password of the admin user, but you cannot change the names of users.
Thank you

I am trying to add my outlook email account to the Mail app, but because it's the same email for my iCloud, for some reason, they are linked, and I discovered that I need to disconnect from iCloud, and then add the outlook account.
But when I try to disconnect from the iCloud in system preferences > accounts on the internet, it says I have to create a separate password - but when I get one it says "passwords do not match"? I tried to do different and same, nothings working: S
The dialog box is like this:
[Stop using iCloud?]
Create separate password for (name of the admin account)
-You will no longer be able to log in or unlock your screen with your icloud password, and you will need to remember two passwords separately.
iCloud password: __________
New password: __________
Check: _
Index of password: __________
[Use the separate password?]
Not sure why that is, that the password does not when it's supposed to be the new s password?
Also, I would like to know what to put in the box check?
Help much appreciated!
Thank you
Oh wow. I just realized I was leaving the case confirm the void and the message "password does not match" mentioned. I just need to retype my password. Hilarious that I have not worked this one earlier.

Reset password Hotmail E-mail account
Hello, I can't remember my windows password because I always used option 'Remember my password' to connect. Never had to put on a password. All of a sudden, when I was asked to sign in with a password, I do not remember and did not have e-mail for some time. I used the reset password option but have not received a response from the Windows live for more than 4 days now. They say that the answers come in 24 hours. I wonder if anyone knows what I have to do to reset my hotmail password. Any number I can call? You will appreciate all help.

I try to log on to Windows XP Edition family, but have forgotten my password. I looked on the site of MS in which States can I reset using a disc, or start as an adiministrator, I have neither a disk or an administrator account. Can anyone help? Thank you!
EVERYONE has an administrator account in Windows XP Home Edition. It is accessible by entering Safe Mode:
http://www.computerhope.com/issues/chsafe.htm#02
Except if you set a password for this account (this is doubtful, since you didn't even know you had!), it is empty.
Once you have logged on to the administrator account you can set passwords and guests to your heart's content:
http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000767.htm#05
You can select the account that you use normally and reset the password. You can even choose an option to 'change the way users log on or not.' In this window, you can select "Use the Welcome screen" (which seems to be what you had before).

As the title says really, changed the password, and I'm 99% sure that I entered that does not work, possible misspelling perhaps?
But any way around this dilemma?Thank youSorry, that was me on another account, I logged incorrectly, little a technological mix to the top at the moment!
Ok.
As I wrote in my first answer, the tutorial can apply to you, then the only suggestion I can offer is to reinstall Vista.
You call the computer manufacturer and ask to speak to a technician.
Do you explain question to that person.
Request a set of recovery disks. E cost is minimal and it is worth the money spent.
Also ask the technician if he or she can teach you how to access your partition recovery without valid password.
If possible, ask how to use the recovery partition to recover the systm.Computer manufacturers are supported Web sites:

Hope the link above includes the manufacturer of your computer.

I just changed my password of the Admin account as my fraping friends keep me, I chose a very long password, but he forgot the moment I got to the school house. I now have only the available Guest account. What should I do? Help, please.
Here you go:
- Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
- Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
- Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
- Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
- Select 'Repair' when prompted.
- When you are prompted, select System Restore.
- Configure Windows to a point before you changed the password.
- Plan ahead a little and create, test and document an alternative admin account, same as you have a spare emergency House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.

Something strange is happening with my Windows 7. We had two accounts of users out there: mine (which was also the Admin account) and my wife. None of these accounts had a password. (Perhaps not a good idea, but no one else uses your computer.)
Last night, my wife was not appear on the display of connection opening, but there was an empty profile called "user". When I connected who and entered in the user account of my wife, he let connect us.
I went to users to see if I could see what was going on and I don't know how it happened, but the next thing I knew, without entering anything at all, he said that there is a password on my Admin account.
Then I logged back on job connect screen, now my wife account appears and there is only the 'User' profile Virgin appeared to me. If I log in it and enter my username, it asks for a password - password that I never created and therefore do not know. So now I'm stuck on the Admin account to my computer.
Is there something I can do?
There are two things you can do:
- Restart your machine in Repair Mode, with your CD to repair Windows, then use system restore to set Windows to a point before your problems began.
- Plan ahead. Have a single administrator account involves some obvious risks. You must have two accounts admin fully tested, with their details recorded on paper.
Post again if you want more details.
