Scan fingerprint ThinkPad does not work; Don't remember the password

* Original title: password reset

ThinkPad/w Windows7 woman is locked.  Fingerprint reader does not and PW forgotten.  How to participate?

Hi Steve,.

If you have forgotten your Windows password and you are on a domain, you must contact your system administrator to reset your password. If you are not on a domain, you can reset your password by using a reset disk of password or by using an administrator account. For more information, see create a password reset disk or reset your Windows password.

If you forget the administrator password, and you do not have a password reset disk or another administrator account, you will not be able to reset the password. If there is no other user account on the computer, you will not be able to connect to Windows and you will need to re - install Windows.

  • Tecra A11 - 11L - fingerprint sensor does not work

    Hello
    I had a problem with my Tecra laptop. The fingerprint sensor does not work since yesterday. It also disappears from the hardware Manager. I tried to reinstall the utility, but the setup.exe will not run successfully. When I try to install the utility directly from the amd64 Directory installation will be successful, but the software is unable to connect to the fingerprint sensor. I also tried to install the original Windows image, but the sensor does not work.

    You have any ideas?

    You can try a BIOS update and set the default BIOS. If it still does not appear in Device Manager, the player is maybe defective or there is a connection problem. I'm guessing that the laptop is still under warranty, you may have to send the laptop to a Toshiba repair center.

  • Photosmart HP 7520: Scan to email does not work

    Hello

    For the last few days I am facing problems of scan to e-mail function. It gives me an error - "failed to connect to Web Services. "Confirm access to the internet and try again. I checked access to internet, is turned off and turned back on, but everything is fine, except that scanning to e-mail still does not work.

    I also tried the suggestion of manual entry of the DNS server in the DNS address configuration, but it does not work.

    Kindly help.

    Hello @alok7,

    Welcome to the HP community!

    I understand that you have a problem with scanning to E-mail app on e-all-in-one printer, HP Photosmart 7520. I'd love to help you with this.

    Here are the steps I suggest to try everything first:

    Network Power Reset:

    We'll leave the router and unplug the power cable (NOTE: do not reset the router.), and then do the same with the printer and shut down the computer. After a minute, plug in the router, wait to fully turn on, then plug the printer back in and wait for the wireless light become solid. Once the router and the printer are on, go ahead and re - turn on the computer. This will refresh the network connection.

    Restore the default settings of the network and reconnect:

    1. on the front panel of the printer, press your up wireless icon

    2. Select settings.

    3. Select restore default network settings.

    4 turn on your printer.

    5. once it is initialized to save, press the wireless icon again.

    6. Select settings.

    7. Select Wireless Assistant , and then follow the prompts to enter the details of your wireless network.

    8. try to activate the web services again.

    Configure a manual DNS for your printer:

    You mentioned that you have already tried defining a manual DNS for your printer, DNS that you used. If you have not already tried so, I suggest to use primary like DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as the secondary DNS.

    If your web services connected, even if scanning to email does not work, you may need to reset the web services on the device.

    NOTE: Reset web services clears the custom email ePrint you have configured on your printer. Please be aware that if you have a personalized email ePrint, after doing this, you will need to configure again and will not be able to use the same address.

    1. press the Web Services button on the front panel.
    2. tap on settings.
    3. pressremove web services"and confirm deletion.
    This will bring you to the homepage.
    4. press on the icon Web Services , once again on the printer and go through the installation process.

    5. once the web service has been activated again, try to configure your scan to E-mail

    Please reply to let me know if these measures have helped to solve your problem.

    Thanks for posting!

  • I want to record with < alt > < s > in the Exact program online. This function does not work. This is the first time I use this program with firefox.

    Question
    I want to record with < alt > < s > in the Exact program online. This function does not work. This is the first time I use this program with firefox.

    edit, escaped mod < s > in order to avoid the line through question

    A web page can be defined a "accesskey" for an item. Unlike IE/Chrome/Safari, who use the Alt key only, Firefox requires pressing Alt and Shift to activate the element. In other words, try

    ALT + SHIFT + S

    and see if it works.

    I don't know of any way to change this so that the change is not necessary. There may be an add-on?

  • Scanner EPSON Perfection V200 Photo: PDF button does not work since I use the scanner with an ASUS i5 running Win 7 Ultimate desktop computer.

    The PDF button does not work since I use the scanner with an ASUS i5 running Win 7 Ultimate desktop computer. I downloaded the 64-bit Epson software for the scanner.

    I found the solution to the problem, and it is indeed with the revised in Windows 7 Control Panel.

    Here how to solve the problem:
    Go to the control panel in Windows 7.
    Search scanner in the upper search box to the right
    You will see a "view scanners and cameras".
    Click it, you will see the Epson Perfection V200. Highlight.
    Click Properties, then Yes, then events.
    Where it says select an event, you MUST choose the event suitable for each option.
    To the Start button, choose Start the series of creativity
    For the copy button Choose launch Epson Scan
    E-mail button also Epson scan
    PDF includes Epson scan
    There you go.
    Now, all this was not necessary before, there are no instructions, and the fault lies with MS. how much more confused MS will do the control panel?

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problem.

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile already used in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting more problems.

    Since the upgrade of my new tab does not work, I press on the + icon and nothing

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables certain parameters, disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    • In previous versions of Firefox, click on the Firefox button in the upper left of the Firefox window and click help (or click on help in the Menu bar, if you do not have a Firefox button) and click on restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.
