Vanishing User/Passwords

A brand new bug in DW 8
A site that was fully displayed (all files and directories)
in previous DW versions now requires "passive" to be checked,
otherwise only the first directory is visitble and no files other
than those uploaded during the current session, the exact opposite
of all previous versions. When "passive is checked" and the site is
reconnected the display and uploading/downloading works as expected
.....for the current session. HOWEVER, when returning to the site
suddenly there is an FTP error --- which turns out to be that the
user name and password are now blank - empty. Repeatable? Yes, try
about 50 times thus far. It's a really irritating time eater.
WORKAROUND/SOLUTION Once passive (or the ftp address) have
been changed you must first "export" the ste, then delete the file
from the list, then "import" it again.
Hey, Adobe: When can we expect a patch to correct this
bug?

Might that be involved?
Also, FTP problems are almost always related to your Firewall
- could that
be involved here? Spyware detectors?

  • Created Master Password, now neither User password or Master Password work

    Hi the
    I've suspected somene to remotely hack into my Macbook because recently it would open finder windows for nothing. Then some of my Gmail mails disappeared so I decided to change password.
    I headed to security and saw the "create Master Password" option so I entered my User password and created a Master Password.
    Then when trying to change the user password to allow system preference change, the "old" user password didn't but the Master Password didn't either. I tried to then change this Master Password, but it's not working either. It's like my two password suddenly vanished when trying to secure my Mac!
    Why? And how can I retrieve or change my passwords again?

    Update: I did the boot screen manipulation to change the administrator as indicated here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qwc7__sceWA
    AND IT STILL DOESN'T ******* WORK.
    This has to be the less secure thing I've seen on a Macbook. ***

  • HT204053 How do I create an Apple ID for my kids which are linked to my Apple ID so that they can make purchases without me having to tell them my user/password?

    How do I create an Apple ID for my kids which are linked to my Apple ID so that they can make purchases without me having to tell them my user/password?

    Welcome to the community.
    Unfortunately, you cannot do that. The first hurdle that you are going to face, is that mobile devices, by virtue of being prone to loss, will always require that a password is entered before a purchase of any kind is made.
    If your concern about the password, is related to your privacy in regard to your mail, contacts and calendar information rather than their acces to make purchases, then the best solution would be for you to use another Apple ID for iCloud.
    Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud too.
    You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
    The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photostream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.

  • Why have a default user password feauture?

    Hi,
      I (understood) read in the manual that there could be a default user password -
    28 BF 4E 5E 4E 75 8A 41 64 00 4E 56 FF FA 01 08
    2E 2E 00 B6 D0 68 3E 80 2F 0C A9 FE 64 53 69 7A.
    If the file is encrypted based one this key, readers can open the file without having to prompt for password though the file is encrypted. I want to know whats the point of this? It provides no security. All it ensures is the reader be sophisticated enough to have a security handler. I don't see the point. Is there any advantage of having such a pdf with default user password?.What was the motivation behind this?
    Thanks

    The Standard Security method of PDF supports TWO passwords - the user/open password and the owner/permissions password.  In addition, an encrypted PDF can have a set of rights (DRM) associated with it (eg. Don't print, don't copy, etc.)
    If you wish to control WHO can open the PDF, then you assign a user/open password.  If you wish to allow ANYONE to open the PDF, then you leave it as the default.
    Once the PDF is open (regardless of the open password), then the reader is responsible for respecting the DRM settings on the document.  However, if you are the owner of the PDF (and there is a permissions password), then you can get back FULL permissions by simply providing the owner password.
    Make sense now?

    User Passwords Rejected on AFP share mounts?
    (OK, my last post got buried, and perhaps too long), try again. Very brief
    Issue:
    After so many days, a User's AFP share password is rejected? What gives.
    If you reset it, several days later, same thing, rejected.

    Power Mac G5 Dual 2.0   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Using Tiger Server, I have found that enabling ACLs, or Access Control Lists on the volume, and then specifying users and/or groups into the specific ACLs for the share point has been very helpful. Also note that 10.4.10 server seems to work better than 10.4.11, so if you haven't upgraded, don't go beyond 10.4.10. .11 seems to have some permissions issues and other problems.
    I assume you are connecting to the server via AFS (i.e. Go > Connect to Server > ip address) and not SMB? SMB sometimes is more problematic about ownership. But either way, Mac or PC clients, it seems ACLs are the way to go.
    Crazy as it seems, on my server, even if the owner is, say, admin, and the group with r/w permissions is, say, Prepress, it helps to specifically add the Prepress group to the ACL for that share. Then be sure to propagate the permissions down (unless you don't want to, for some reason). To do this, click the little gear icon and propagate all the permissions -- owner, group, acl, etc. down. This will take a bit of time depending on how much stuff you have. I also find that a server reboot can be helpful.
    [[ All this said, 10.5.1 seems to do some crazy things, and I hope 10.5.2 addresses them. I have one machine (not user ID) that always creates a folder on a share with no permissions for anyone. Only from that Mac; the same login on another works just fine. Go figure]]

  • User Password change fails in OWA 2013

    User Password change fails in OWA with this error: Your password couldn't be changed. Make sure the old password you typed is correct and that the new password meets the minimum security requirements.
    We are migrating from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013.  Have mailboxes in both environments.  OWA 2007 password changes succeed (user mailbox is still in Exchange 2007).  When the user mailbox is moved to Exchange 2013, password changes fail
    with the above error.
    We have the Exch 2013 servers are on Windows 2012 and we are running Exch 2013 CU3.   We have made changes to the Default Role Assignment Policy to prevent users from changing Contact information and setting user photos, etc.  We are not exactly
    sure when user password changes stopped working, or even if they ever did work, although we recently installed our Prod Exch 2013 servers alongside our 2007 servers without any RBAC delegation implemented and a quick test of a user password change was successful.
    I reversed all the changes to the Default Role Assignment Policy but the password change still fails.

    Hi,
    Please try the following steps in your CAS server:
    1. Click Start > Run and type regedit and click OK.
    2. Navigate to the "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchange OWA" key.
    3. Set the ChangeExpiredPasswordEnabled value from 1 to 0.
    4. Close regedit and re-open it.
    5. Set the ChangeExpiredPasswordEnabled value from 0 to 1.
    6. Close regedit.
    7. After you configure this DWORD value, please reset IIS. The recommended method to reset IIS is to use IISReset /noforce from a command prompt.

  • How to change user password from default realm programaticaly

    Hello,
    I would like to know if there are any ways to change a users password from a file
    realm through java classes ie . programaticaly.

    Thank you for the support.
    After looking at the code, I noticed RealmManager is not documented in the BEA
    Javadocs. Am I missing something or is it not documented. Lot of other methods
    also not documented. Do you have the latest Javadocs?

  • Change User password not working in SAP ME 6.0

    Hi,
    In SAP ME 6.0 SP01 6.0.1.0 Counter 40, the activity "Change User Password" does not work for me or any other user.
    The activity window (Netweaver) shows, but in the top it says "An error occurred - contact system administrator".
    This is the output from the default trace file. Seems my user is not authorized, but where do I set this authorization?

  • How to prevent user password being reset to the same password?

    Hi,
    As you all know, domain admin has the power to reset user password.  Let's think of the following scenario:
    if an admin lets a user reset his password to use the same string, this action means he could nullify company policy on password which requires user's last N passwords being recorded in the history.
    We could very well imagine that the admin reset his own personal password in order to bypass company policy.
    I have asked partner forum to see if there's a way to prevent such thing, but the reply I got is "No".
    I wanted to know if anyone of you have any idea to prevent such thing from happening?
    Or if it's possible to get the hash value of users past N password to see if he's always using the same password?
    Thanks in advance for your ideas.

    Good rules is better alternative to complex policy.
    Combine password history with time interval between changes.
    Regards
    Milos
    You don't understand what I mean.
    He knows exactly what you mean. 
    check out this link below:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc757692%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
    Enforce password history
    The Enforce password history policy setting determines the number of unique new passwords that must be associated with  a
    user account before an old password can be reused .
    The possible values for this Group Policy setting are:
    A user-defined number from 0 through 24.
    Not defined.
    Discussion
    Password reuse is an important concern in any organization. Many users want to reuse the same password for their account over a long period of time. The longer the same password is used for
    a particular account, the greater the chance that an attacker will be able to determine the password through brute force attacks. If users are required to change their password, but nothing prevents them from using the old password or continually reusing a
    small number of passwords, the effectiveness of a good password policy is greatly reduced.
    Specifying a low number for Enforce password history allows users to continually use the same small number of passwords repeatedly. If you do not also set Minimum
    password age, users can change their password as many times in a row as necessary in order to reuse their original password.
    If you set Enforce password history to a number greater than zero, users must come up with a new password every time they are required to change their old one. This
    improves security, but it can increase the risk that users will write down their passwords so they do not forget them.
    If you set the value to the maximum of 24, it helps to ensure that vulnerabilities caused by password reuse are kept to a minimum.
    For this policy setting to be effective in your organization, configure Minimum password age so that you do not allow passwords to be changed immediately. Enforce
    password history should be set at the level that combines a reasonable maximum password age with a reasonable password change interval requirement for users.

  • Multiple users\passwords on the same website with Safari

    Coming over from Netscape for MAC to Safari.
    Here is the issue-- In Netscape I was able to have multiple users/passwords for the same website page. Netscape controls its users/passwords; not the keychain. With Safari everytime I try to enter the second user/password this wipes out the first user and password.
    Is there a way with Safari to have mutlple users/passwords for the same website page?

  • [SOLVED] How to get sudo and kdesu to honor my user password?

    Hi folks,
    Well, I must be missing something. I think I've tried everything listed here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=143487 and in the referenced links, but I still have the problem of my system rejecting my password for some uses of sudo and kdesu but not others.  I've included my /etc/sudoers file below.
    My problem may be due to screwing around with users:  I started out using bruce (1000), then switched to bbraley (1001), then deleted bruce in kusers, then changed bbraley to 1000. When that created more problems without solving the original one, I switched back to 1001.  I've played with adding and removing my user from groups, including creating a sudo group, making sure I am a member of wheel group, etc. 
    What seemed to be everyone's magic fix,
    pacman -S pambase
    didn't work when I tried it successfully with my bbraley password, then later, when that began failing, using the root password. pambase reinstalls, but there is no resulting change in the behavior of sudo.
    Side question: Most of my experience is with kubuntu in which I never created a root user and never had any trouble having my user password work with sudo or kdesu. Is there a reason Archwiki beginners guide suggests assigning a separate root account and password?
    Can anyone help?

    I had never used it, either, but I misread some reference and thought it might help. Since you say it causes the behaviour I'm trying to eliminate, I will get rid of it, as suggested. However, the behavior preceded my addition of this line in the file, so I don't think this will correct the problem. Edit: Removing it kept the root password from being universally required (I can now edit /etc/sudoers using my user password) and returned it to requiring it sometimes (I still need the root password to use kdesu).
    As for some other distro not having a root account, that is simply impossible.  There was a root account.  If you didn't have the password for it, then that installation was severely crippled.
    Sorry, you're right. I should have said that kubuntu does not expect users to assign a password to the root account and instead expects primary users to access that account's privileges via su, sudo, or kdesu only.
    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
    By default, the root account password is locked in Ubuntu. This means that you cannot login as root directly or use the su command to become the root user. However, since the root account physically exists it is still possible to run programs with root-level privileges. This is where sudo comes in - it allows authorized users (normally "Administrative" users; for further information please refer to AddUsersHowto) to run certain programs as root without having to know the root password.
    Thanks for responding to my request for help. Any other ideas?
    Edit:  Here's what I keep getting that only accepts the root password, not my user password

  • How to get rid of the user password during start up of the newly upgraded 10.6 Mac to 10.7 Lion?

    Hi All,
    I previously ran Mac 10.6 Snow Leopard on my MacBook. I upgraded to 10.7 Lion today and it was successfully done. After the Mac had restarted, it took me to the usual login page (now with grey background) and was asking me for a user password. I didn't set up a password on the 10.6. I only used to hit the Return key on the keyboard and the Mac was logging me in. And now with Lion, it asks for password and whenever I press the Return key on the keyboard, it does not log me in. It shows the password hint instead. The hint says "Wala" (A filipino term for "none". I indicated it like that when I setup my user account). And Lion does not let me login without typing in a password. I don't know what to type since I don't have a password setup. Is there a way to bypass this? Can someone help shed light on this? Thank you.

    As Baltwo said, you should have a password set on your computer for secutity reasons. You can set it to automatically log you on if you are the only user when starting up and you don't need to input the password.
    What Baltwo was getting to was to make sure nothing was in the field such as a space. Apparantly, it won't let you log into it without a password.
    I seem to remember a default password in past systems. I think it was computer. Try typing that in. If it doesn't work, then follow the steps in this article and set a password for your user account.

  • Multiple users password for some pages on iWeb site?

    Hi guys,
    I've been checking out this topic here on AD, but not really happy with what I found. Is there anybody out here who could help me with a multiple users password html code??? I want a "members only" link on the homepage linked to a page where people have to enter username and password and then go to a special "homepage" where they can click to different PDF files. It doesn't sound that hard, but again, I don't like the html codes I found so far. Hope there is someone out here who knows something nice.
    Thanks!!
    Marc : )

    Marc ~ You may have to +"think different"+ to integrate the following suggestion into your iWeb site, but take a look at: http://drop.io/about
    Here's an example: http://drop.io/alancito
    ...the password there is: guest1
    You'll find a downloadable PDF document at the bottom of that page and note that drop.io didn't require an email address, name or personal registration to set up the above “drop”.
