Invalid username and password combination woes

Before I do what I think I am supposed to do... I wanted to run this by you guys first to make sure incase someone found a way. I wish i didn't have to do this but...
I have a Mac on our domain running 10.6.6. It had a seizure of some kind and i was forced to cold boot it. We got it back up and running and to the login screen, but when we tried logging in to it, the login in screen just shook. No matter what AD account i tried logging in with, SHAKE! SHAKE! SHAKE The next thing i decided to do was unbind and rebind the Mac thinking maybe it had something to do with that. NO GOOD. Not only did I get an error that the Mac could not unbind from our domain, but now, no matter what account i use to try and rebind the mac, I get the dreaded: invalid username and password combination error. WHEN I KNOW THAT'S NOT THE CASE!
Anyone know how to fix this OTHER THAN downgrading to a version of 10.6.x that CAN bind? If that's even a option???
Thanks!

Why is that always any Apple support person or Mac users answer? It's a Microsoft problem. How can it be, I have 20 macs connected to the same network. The mac having the problem has been successfully working for 3 months. It started shaking when the user came in and in the troubleshooting process we removed it and are trying to rejoin it backl on to a domain it has been working on for months and 19 other machines are still working on. How is this a microsoft problem? Please enlightne me? If it sounds like I am frustrated, I apologize, but I AM!

Oracle Discoverer 4i - Invalid username and password

Hi,
I have 2 machines, both installed with Oracle Discoverer 4i with patches, 3201601, 2451630, 3622870.
When I run the Desktop Discoverer and attempt to log in, one machine prompts the error Invalid username and password while the other does not.
Can someone help me troubleshoot why this error occurs? It will be big help.
Thanks!

Are you trying to connect to the same database from both Discoverer machines ? Are the OS versions on those two machines identical ? Pl post the exact error code/message ?

01017 invalid username and password in toad

Hi,
I am getting '01017-invalid username and password logon denied' error when connecting via toad. but with same userid and password, I am able to connect via sql plus. Pleaase let me know how to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Abirami

Hi again,
Did I understand correctly the following :
1) The database you are trying to access is in fact a clone of the production database and it is in the clone database that you get the error ?
Yes facing the error in clone database only.
2) When you said the user/password worked fine the previous day I assume you mean it worked fine on the source database , not on the clone database ?
It was the clone only (Not the production)
3) So, in fact you have never been able to access the clone database with this userid ?
The user id were able to login yesterday and not today(This the cloned one)
4) I also assume that the original user still works fine when accessing the source database ?
Yes
If I have understood correctly all these things then I think we need to understand the cloning process. How exactly do you clone the database ?
1. Taken the control file trace and shutdown the source db.
2. Copied the cold backup from target to source destination.
3. moved the controlfile to other location (in source).
4. started with
startup nomount (source)
i have run the script that was taken trace( I have done crosschecking of all datafiles with production for your information)
create controlfile set database <name> resetlogs noarchivelog
controlfile got created
alter database open resetlogs.
thats it.

Invalid Username and Password on 10.7 SMB shares

Getting "Invalid Username and Password" message when connecting to SMB shares hosted off a Mac OS 10.7 Lion machine from Snow Leopard or other OSes? Even though you know you are using the correct username and password? With the new SMB in OS X 10.7 Lion you now have to specify the name of the computer your connecting to IN the username field of the prompt or else it won't connect. Kind of like Windows. Took me a while to figure this out so I figured I'd post this here.
i.e.
instead of:
Use:

Thanks for all of your advices. I want to say:
1. I just created this new database yesterday and created SYS password during database creation from another clinet machine in my office. All connections are working. This is why I don't want to change the password at this moment. If I re-create password file, will this affect another client machine in office to connect to DB as sysdba?
2. From server, I can connect. I used the same sys/syspassword as sysdba. If the password is wrong, I would not be able to connect from server.
3. When I tried to connect from remote client machine, I do connect with string like: SQL:> conn sys/syspassword@mydb as sysdba. But it didn't work and return ORA-01017 error.
4. I have other 4 databases on different servers. I can connect from the same remote client machine through SQLPLUS and TOAD with sys as sysdba and system.
Please advise more. Thanks.

Check with your sysadmin. They may have setup a Server ID, which you will need to introduce to your database definition to complete the signon process.

Why can't I access my credit union account anymore on my laptop? I enter username and password and it says invalid username and password!

The trouble opening my credit union account just started yesterday and it was usable the day before. I enter my username and password and the next window tries to open my account but ends up on a page that reads invalid username and password! What has happened to my settings? Can anyone relate or help me?

My first approach would be to see if your credit union changed their web site. If nothing has changed on your computer then it must be at their end. If they say they have changed nothing then you can start looking at your computer settings.
One small worrying item. How did you come to try to log into them? Never use a link in an unsolicited e-mail telling you to log in. Those often go to bogus sites trying to steal your identity that are almost perfect imitations of the real site, and will, of course, not actually log you into the real site. I always check web addresses in my browser's status bar.

Sharing via email says the server did not recognize the username and password combination

I am trying to share photos in iPhoto via email (gmail) and it says the server does not recognize the username password combination. I have deleted the email account rebooted iMac and re-entered the gmail account info and I get the same message. I have confirmed the username and password are correct.

LarryHN I guess I should have clarified that. I did try it that way and I am able to email pictures with mail set as the email client. When I change it to iPhoto as the email client is when I get this message. I have the same setup on my Macbook and it works great for emailing pictures from iPhoto. Although I can send them through email client, I prefer doing it through iPhoto.

Re: Invalid username and password when logging onto Hyperion workspace

I have tried using the admin and password as username and password.I am able to login to Essbase Administration Services and User Management Console using this account.I have provisioned the user to Hyperion System 9 BI+ .
Thanks in advance.

I was told that Dsun.net.inetaddr.ttl=0" is required to be passed to the web application server (JVM) that starts Hyperion Shared Services and all System 9 products that depend on Hyperion Shared Services
Is this correct? I see these errors in the log when I try to log into Workspace in the morning:

Google Talk for Blackberry login failure, invalid username and password

Hi Folks,
I have a new 8520 Curve from which I cannot seem to log into Google Talk using the gtalk for Blackberry application. I have absolutely no problems logging into the service with applications from Google such as Voice, however the Google Talk by RIM is failing. I have tried with both my standard gmail account and my business Google Apps account with no success.
Here is what is happening.
Start Google Talk
I type in my username
I type in my password
I select Remember Password
I select Automatically Sign me in
I push Sign In
The Sign in Fails with "Username and Password do not Match. You Provided ([email protected])."
I really honestly know my password, and have even signed into google services from this very phone in past few minutes so something else is going on.

It is half a year later and I have EXACTLY the same problem.
Why can this app not be fixed?

In Iphoto, server doesn't support my username and password combination

In Iphoto, I can not mail directly out, error message says server doesnt support username and password--how do I fix this?

Launch iPhoto.
From the iPhoto menu bar click Help / iPhoto Help
Select the Get Started tab.
On the left select: Send photos by email
If you don't have a MobileMe account scroll down and click: Email your photos

HT4736 what do I do when iphoto doesn't recognize username and password combination?

what is going on, I can't email photos from iphoto since it does't recognize user name and password combination?

iPhoto Menu ->
Preferences ->
Accounts ->
Delete and recreate your email settings.
Alternatively, use Apple's Mail for the job. It has Templates too - and more of them.
