• "Username or password is incorrect" error message to Win7 logon screen - three systems!

  I have a home network with three machines of Win7. Today, I have introduced the third Win7 and replaced a WinXP machine. All three Win7 machines worked properly for months. Both machines had multiple admin users. We had a user admin added after that the problem appeared.

  There were a few typical network problems - get the machines to be able to access the directories on other machines. Resolved, I'm now faced with this:

  When each machine is turned on, we get a red cirle with a X and this error message: "username or password is incorrect."

  Of course, at this stage no one has tried to put a password yet.

  The system has only one user account. It does not recognize the password. End load Win7, we then close the original user account and access a page of choice of the user account. At this stage the system allows us to choose the account, we, accepts the appropriate password and allows to load the user account.

  To recap. For all three Machines:

  Multiple user accounts

  Choice of user accounts is not made after start

  Error message

  There is only one this user

  After the loading of the AU in first, the system is behaving properly.

  The end of the summary.

  I tried to change user accounts and settings of network without success. Help, please

  Change a user password is trivial for malware or a virus.

  You can use the process below to call for the restoration of the system. This will set Windows (and its password file) back to the selected date:
  System restore
  1. put your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
  2 start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
  3. press a button if you are prompted to start from the DVD.
  4. When prompted, select "Safe Mode Command Prompt".
  5 log in as administrator if you are prompted.
  6. Select repair when prompted.
  7. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
  8. set Windows to a point before this problem occurred.
  9. When finished, remove the CD before restarting the system.
  In step 2, you can also use the Windows 7 installation DVD. The subsequent steps are similar to those above.

  A few notes:
  -Rather than do not set a password, you should get Windows to remember your password. The process below allows you to do this.
  -Have a single account is obviously asking for trouble. After you have solved the problem, you must create a second account admin, with a non-empty password and log the details in a safe place.

  Automatic logon
  1. click on start
  2. type the three letters cmd in the search box, and then click OK.
  3. Enter the following command and press ENTER:
  Control userpasswords2
  4. click once your account name.
  5. uncheck the box that requires users to enter a password.
  6. click on OK.
  7. Enter your password when you are prompted.

  Try this:

  2. Use system restore to set Windows to a point before your sis woven its evil magic.
  3. Plan ahead a little and create, test, and document an alternative admin account, even though you have a spare House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.

• "Username or password is incorrect" on the iPhone, but work on computer?

  I suddenly started having problems to connect in my apps on my right iPhone5S today!  I discovered that I had a few app updates hang out, so when I went to ' sign in to the iTunes Store "he says"your Apple ID or the password is incorrect.".  So, I reset the password (several times because she would repeat again and again the same message) and still cannot connect! More funny thing is, I can connect using the same name of pass/login on my computer (so I am able to write this question).

  I know I'm typing good pass/login (checked CAPS and spaces etc...), I can't seem to let me!

  I am able to connect my iPhone to my computer and put music on my phone... I am connected to iTunes with my computer.

  I tried to restore my phone too and reset the settings and turn off the phone.  Nothing works.  Any ideas? Thank you very much - it's so frustrating!

• Cannot log on to the administration console, cannot pay the Bill late, off site - No Support possible!

  Hello!

  As the title says, I basically can't do anything right now, and BC support has not really been able to help me I asked on this already here in the forums (when the site was still active, it is now no longer). When trying to log in to the administration console, all I get is: 'ERROR: this site is currently unavailable. " "For more information, please contact: (my name)." And Yes, I am the administrator. I created the Web site using Adobe Muse and published using that. No other party was involved, with the exception of Godaddy.com where I bought the domain.

  Unlike, I have been told it should be, I don't get it and never got a form to fill out my payment information to opening a session on the administration console.

  I also get and only accurate above the error message when you try to submit a support ticket, the only place where that I could ask is so here.

  As I mentioned in my previous post, I could not fix my credit card details when the card was no longer valid because I was on vacation and somehow fails to access this menu on mobile. A week later, I received another email, telling me that all the admin services have been disabled until I pay the Bill. At this point I started to receive the above error message. Now, a few weeks later, the site itself has been turned off - I can not even pay the Bill.

  As I'm not very used to do the entire installation from a Web site, I certainly don't want to spend that time again, but just want to pay the overdue Bill.

  Help is very appreciated!

  Hi Alex,

  Please submit a ticket via the following form and we will intensify the accounts team: http://www.businesscatalyst.com/contact

  However, I don't see that the site that you can reference is to Bill the partner directly. Therefore, you have to connect the console to the admin of this site the user partner and you will be then prompted with a form of payment to pay the outstanding Bill. It seems [email protected] is the user partner assigned to this portal, please try to connect as a user.

  Thank you.

  • Scenario 1: You recently set a new password for the protected administrator account. However, you don't remember the password.
  • Scenario 2: You type the correct password. However, Windows Vista or Windows 7 does not accept the password because the system is damaged.
  • Scenario 3: You delete a protected administrator account. Now, you cannot connect to another administrator account.
  • Scenario 4: You change an administrator account protected with a standard user account. Now, you cannot connect to another administrator account.

  Thank you

  You can try to connect to the router configuration page using i.e. password default "admin", if it does not, then you can use "admin" as the user name and password and then check... If this still does not work then you need to reset your router.

  To reset your router press and hold the reset button on the back of your router for 30 sec then unplug the power supply and reconnect it back... But it will restore your default router.

• How solve 'cannot log in to my administrator account on Windows vista?

  I try to change my password in safe mode. but seems still does not...

  You can change your password to something that you remember another administrative user account. If you had only an administrative user account and you have forgotten the password, all is not lost. You can then follow the general recommendations for implementing user accounts in Vista that I will give you at the end of this post.

  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.

  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 [press Enter]
  NET user [insert here the name of your user account] [insert the new password of user as 1234 here] [press Enter]

  [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

  Remove the installation DVD and restart the computer. Now, you will be able to connect to your user account by using the password that you set; for example, 1234.

  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. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable Vista file repair 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 to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data.

  Once you have fixed things, log on 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 there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in 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). MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• "User name or password is incorrect"

  I am the admin on my PC and there is only one profile. When I try to log on windows, my admin (only profile) profile, I get the error message "username or password is incorrect', and I can not connect." However, if I "Change user" I can connect with my username (admin) and the password and can access my admin profile. It is not a major problem, but certainly a disadvantage. Any ideas?

  Try clicking on the link "sign in options" under it and check that the "key" icon is enabled on these icons.

  If you have created a reset before disk or you can log on as "Administrator", you can follow the steps detailed in this Document Microsoft Online:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx/KB/321305
   
  ... If you actually cannot log on as an administrator or if you do not actually create a reset disk in the past then, unfortunately, you would be well advised to reinstall the operating system as there is no mechanism in place to recover a lost password. This, of course, is normal for a good reason.
